NDH92 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 I don't know what's happened with Rockstar's professionalism recently. For example, their games used to have almost no major game play issues, but GTA V had a few issues the F.I.B heist mission, being one - if you quit that mission and didn't do it straight away, you couldn't activate the cut scene to replay it. Then there were little things like the vending machines not working, after they'd patched the game. I thought these were poor mistakes really from a big video game company and of course those respective issues should have been picked up by their testers. And on top of that V's release was delayed for almost a year, so it wouldn't be surprising if they delayed the release of downloadable single player content with no announcement.

Choco Taco Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 (edited) Almost like they hope people would forget that they said that, like with flight school. I'm sorry, but it's very difficult to have faith in a business that is now outright lying to it's customers. From reddit... Look how they treat the winners of their contests. It's like they want the winners to forget about their prize so they don't have to send them out. The winners basically have to beg Rockstar to send them what they owe them. http://www.reddit.com/r/GrandTheftAutoV/comments/2dnodt/the_lscarshow_contest_ended_over_6_months_ago_and/ edit winner of a different contest..

beretta-gt88 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 These haven't been removed. Instead of clicking x to go straight into online mode, let story mode load up. You get these screens. Then go to online once that's started up. No. These appear even when you don't choose online mode. I'm on PS3 and Online loading screens replaced them after GTA:O launched they should be changed back the only way to see 'em is if you reload the your game save.

Lethal Vaccine Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 These loading screens? From Patch 1.16, eh? Luckily the last time I updated the game was when we got the Zentorno and Massacro. Once updated, put back into box yet again, and went back to trucking away for 100% with III, VC, SA, LCS, VCS, IV, TLaD, and TBoGT... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RominOctane Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 (edited) There's no way it'll be anything like TBOGT. EFLC was unique DLC. I don't see them doing anything like that again. I think it'll just be more vehicles and weapons (like it doesn't have enough) and maybe some more Strangers & Freaks missions. Source? Any origin of why you think that? How does one provide a source for their own presumptions? It was a joke. I wanted to know what made him think that Rockstar wasn't capable of doing something as unique as thirty something missions.Actually they HAVE said themselves that they won't do anything on the scale of EFLC because it didn't do good enough (sales wise) for the amount of resources that was put into making it. They said it around the time V was announced so it'll be pretty hard to find the article but I'll try.

oRNoKrazK1ipz Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 If people used cheats it disable achievements.So that's automatically a faulty survey That survey could not have possibly counted every one in the whole wide world. Until i see a survey that does regarding this issue, then I can't be sure of exactly how many people did not complete IV. I believe that percentage came from all Xbox accounts that have played IV, then tracked the percentage of players who had the "You Won!" achievement, effectively giving the percentage of players who finished the story on Xbox not counting those who probably finished the story offline. That part matters because EFLC only existed on Xbox during that time. Now, if the percent for that achievement on PSN and GFWL can be found then a somewhat accurate percentage can be calculated based off all players across all 3 platforms (though Xbox Live and GFWL may share stats). I'm not sure how open Microsoft and Sony is for stats like that, so it may not even be possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

im_stoned Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 (edited) f*ck gta V that sh*ts in my trash i'll be goddamnned it I let a game company go politically correct on my ass. !!!!!!!! Seriously yo gta v is garbage in both single player and especially online f*ck them both though, rockstar should man up and admit they f*cked up give up on this sh*t and focus on making a better game. I would like them to make a prison break game, it would be half open world half linear you'd have to make choices throughout the game that would have REAL effects on the game non of this gta fake choices that achieve nothing crap ! when I make a choice it should change everything !!!!!! It's really sad rockstar have sold out, we need a new gaming company to believe in ! rockstar have '' started from the bottom now we're here '' syndrome and not in a good way fa**ots !

Gnocchi Flip Flops Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 There's been nothing about it whatsoever on the newswire since they said "blah blah blah, Story MODE dlc continuing adventures of Michael Franklin and Trevor, blah blah blah, 2014" Almost like they hope people would forget that they said that, like with flight school. I'm sorry, but it's very difficult to have faith in a business that is now outright lying to it's customers. They always do this though. I'm not going to lie, after almost 2 years I'm starting to get tired of their bullsh*t.

R*, one of the biggest name in games, who just made over a billion dollars in 3 days with their game, and who continue to release games that are loved by the gaming community, will go out of business? Yeah...No. Not unless they completely sh*t the bed and start developing nothing but mobile games, of which there is no indication. On top of that, no indication of slowing down at all. Releasing their best game, commercially and critically (I think, if not, it's the 2nd best) doesn't exactly say "Going out of business!" You guys on this forum have to realize that we make up .0001% of the sales of their game. You don't buy it? They don't care. They have tens of millions of people that will. Hardcore fans are the minority, and they will never be taken seriously.

CallumL Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 They focus more on the online content, because more people play online.

Trevorphilipjfry Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 The thing about EFLC, IV needed DLC pretty f*cking desperately, repeat kill bad guy missions for the whole story, and NOTHING, absolutely nothing to do outside the story, and online was pretty crap as well. whereas V actually has varied missions and stuff to do outside of missions, (still needs more it ain't perfect). And of course, Online, like it or not, but most people play it more, and actually really enjoy it. All od this means that V isn't in dire need of DLC rejuvenation. sorry about that, but getting annoyed at the amount of unfair praising of IV. Im telling you guys, V with the SP DLC, will be so much better than EFLC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a brilliant SP game prior to introducing online.Sure, there's huge multi-player market too. But, GTA:O is a separate game itself, thus taking a lot more focus than a normal multi-player. Unfortunately, single-player game would've been much better had they improved on IV and offered a lot of better content than what we've now.

ChrisMathers3501 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I used to tell people to be patient. And let's be fair, it hasn't even been a year yet. But it's getting damn close. I am like one task away from a 100% complete in the game. Only other game I maxed out like that was Liberty City Stories. It's a good game, and I really like it, and I really like all the DLC that they've been releasing for free, but a few cars and guns and missions can only keep me for so long. Now we've been promised singleplayer content. SUBSTANTIAL singleplayer contact. Read: another Lost and Damned sized expansion pack at the very least. But we haven't even seen a trailer yet.

More and more games are going Online. Streaming is getting really popular, with programs such as EA Access and Playstation Now(?). CoD is one of the most popular game franchises currently because of its online. Same goes for Battlefield. Franchises that have always been SP are going Online. We have the supposed Cloud that will help with games. Online is the future. Whether or not you like that is irrelevant. Osho: Yes, Skyrim was great. Yes, it was SP. I'm not saying that SP is dead. However, what I said above is completely true. I mean, even Elder Scrolls went Online, and Fallout was going to. Online is the future. You can love it. You can hate it. That doesn't change the outcome. Like I said, I'm just saying how it is. rocopc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFAIK most people would complete the main story/campaign before they started to play online (not counting MP-only games like TF2 or Elder Scrolls Online, or MP-oriented games like Minecraft or Battlefield). Even though not everyone finished IV's story, most IV players DO actually finished the story.

I'm not denying the online's increasing popularity, and the business side.But, SP faces a great threat of gradually losing the appeal, as seen with the prev. games, in the long run, if online continues to be stronger. Shorter story, limited content, decreasing challenge and other decisions benefiting online, etc. are couple of things that come to mind right off the top of my head. But, you will get the idea about my point of concern. josephene123, Detective Phelps, Kampret and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
