You think R* has ever considered scrapping GTA:O?

[tymaster50]

I know they have to be a little let down that 6 patches later the LSC money glitch still works.

[don ovdi' island]

Evidently the LSC glitch isn't their main concern.

[biggsull]

Evidently the LSC glitch isn't their main concern.

Their main concern(secondary to glitching) should be getting the BAWSAQ back up as its an incentive for people to log on daily or even several times a day, extended periods.. so they can keep track of ups and downs and profit from it.

 

By doing this, people will be playing more and really be spending more money on cash cards.. because the game will have more meaning.

I doubt they care about fixing the LSC glitch that much. It doesn't matter how long it takes them to fix it, because they can always remove it later along with everything you've bought with it.

The glitch would be eliminated if the game saved to the cloud immediately after selling a vehicle. There have been six patches and it hasn't been done. I really suspect they don't give that much of a sh*t--or they've made some seriously confusing coding and it's just too hard to fix that.

However, by now when they do that those folks will just stop playing. Honestly, there's nothing in this game other than other players to keep people playing. Everything's been done by everybody now. The new content is coming so incredibly slow, and it's so incredibly disappointing. They won't help anything by resetting the folks who cheated at all. They're not going to come back to buy money. They're just going to move on to other games.

True, but that's never going to happen unless they rid the game of any and all money making glitches. The BAWSAQ is suppose to work with the in-game economy, which at the moment is none existent due to players earning illegitimate money.

 

IMO we need the Content Creator, Heist, and more missions (character jobs) sooner than BAWSAQ.

[iEatzNiggletz]

You guys are f*ckin trippin' f*ck BAWSAQ, stupid fake-ass economy. Bring the damn Heists and Content Creator already!

[Darkclox]

If they make it that you save when you hit start, maybe the glitches will go.

[iFight]

If they make it that you save when you hit start, maybe the glitches will go.

Or the system should immediatelly throw out the player after he/she sold the vehicle.

What? That would only make it easier on the glitchers and a pain in the ass on the people selling cars legitimately. Please man, think before you click "post."

[NukedPratorian]

I doubt R* would scrap it they still make some money from cashcards even with the glitch. Doesn't matter the glicthing and lack of content to keep players interested will kill the game for them. 90% of my friends already stopped playing and moved on not even the heists can save this game in a couple of months the lobbies will be emptier than they already are.

It already does this, and the glitch still works regardless.

Ok, so there isn't another way to block it.

No character swaps for 1 minute after selling a vehicle.

 

Fixed.

 

What costs more, months of glitching ruining the economy or 1 dude spending a couple hours of coding.

 

Alternately, delayed payout for car sales, payment comes a minute later directly into your bank account.

 

OR removing the resale value of modded parts

 

OR only allowing non personal vehicles to be sold

 

OR 30 other things which would just as easily fix it.

 

OR not using bullsh*t cloud technology in the first place

Everything's been done by everybody now. .

 

 

 

Wrong.

[SpidersWeb]

Doesn't even need to be 'no character swaps'.

Just get the console to cache the car sale just like it does the money.

[dOn DaDa ShOttA]

get for real......

[Ayylien]

I'm sure their going to just 'scrap' something that cost millions to make without even trying. It's still in beta, I'm sure there's going to be a 'cloud server glitch' around version 1.1 where all player data gets wiped.

[KeithMcClees]

All they really need to do is "send" car funds to the house or make you exit the lsc and use the phone banking to get the money. Their main problem is they give the money before you give the car

[Canucks555]

1 billion made in first day. People will be playing this game for years mate.

Why the hell would R dump it?

Or more importantly..

Why and how the f*ck do you figure they'd even entertain the thought of dumping their biggest ever success?

They wouldn't release BAWSAQ when you can just dump all your glitched money in there and profit of it.

because leaving the saves in the hands of people happy to glitch sh*t is the best solution ever

[NombreDeLaBeast]

It has been said many times before but all they really need to do is disable the start button while in LSC. Boom glitching is no longer possible (until some one with way too much time figures out how to sell cars from inside the movie theater or some such nonsense.)

 

EDIT: unless there are other ways to get into the money store that i forgot about.

All they need to do is make it so it gives you the money at the same time that it deletes your vehicle.

Thinking you don't understand the glitch very well.

 

Money is recorded across the user account, so when you sell the car the money goes there and the car is removed from the character account. By quickly swapping back to the same character before it auto-saves you return to the 'with car' character.

 

Now it would be nice to either:

- link the money to the character (not your account) but that has implications I assume given we have potentially 5 characters for some reason in the future

- simultaneously save and update money

 

But given it is a cloud save and takes quite a while, there is a gap while you are sitting with the money but the game isn't saved.

 

Alternatively, you could cloud-save (to remove the car) and then update the money but I guess you could see that would cause issues.

 

So, guts of the problem is that it takes time do the save after selling the car - that's the glitching window

[silentunion]

It's not the glitchers that are the problem at this point, it's the hackers. A glitcher can grind LSC for hours and make millions. A hacker just needs less than a minute to put a $2.5 BILLION dollar bounty on you and your friends and you're all instant billionaires even if you didn't want it.

 

I doubt Rockstar will scrap the idea of GTA Online any time soon. There are still a lot of people playing, albeit probably a lot less now than launch. I've noticed activity of my friends went down immediately after the racing nerf (a bad move by Rockstar imo). However, it's still only been a couple of months since launch so it's still really early in the game.

[saintsrow]

Rockstar already made the big money. Mucho profit already in the bank, with no future costs except minor production costs . But online is continuing to cost them money. I would not be surprised if there is management discussion and maybe even argument about whether GTA0 will ever have a positive return on investment. I put a post in another thread that is relevant here:

 

If I were the Rockstar / TTWO Chief Financial Officer, I would be saying, "We just made a billion dollars in three days. Lots of suckers are going to keep buying the game thinking that single player is worth $60, so that's free money for us. But this GTA0 is just a money pit. Let's cut our losses and bury this turkey now. Power down the servers sell the whole goddamned cloud data center on eBay."
