I never said it was the first time, it's just become very frequent lately.

 

Its been frequent for the past 11 months....

[LambentBunny]

OH NO! what ever will we do having to wait 1 week for DLC.

[NecroNeedle]

its always been sh*t, where you been?

[Metal Slime]

I really "love" seeing my PV being destroyed every session. It's not even a super car, let alone a crappy one. People hate Akuma now?

[Nick1020]

Thanks to the new pay system I'm usually doing missions solo and in invite only sessions sometimes play a mission with GTAFORUMS crew. Other than that, the community is annoying.

Hes from Denmark why would you take him serious? On topic though yeah unfortunately unless you know someone in real life or join a respectable crew you'll always be playing with a holes on gtao. Also don't mind all the ones talking crap on here as you'll notice most of them are new to the forums as well so welcome to gta forums lol.

Ok, i've stopped reading after:

 

 

as there's a least one or two arseholes in every lobby (on average) that will kill you

 

What do you think this is junior?, My Little Pony?, no, the game is about killing people, if you cannot tolerate that others play the game in a way you don't like, even when it fits perfectly on the game, the go away and stop bitching

I don't post much and have actually put this game down for a while because of exactly what the OP is describing. The highlighted text above is what gets me. This game, since the very first 2d GTA has been about living a live of crime not about being a serial killing douchebag (I've played them all). Killing just happens to come into play when living a video game life of crime. I agree 100% with OP, the game is being treated like COD by dumb*sses (or immature POS) who have no real sense of creativity.

I play solo and to be honest, i would appreciate a GTA Offline mod when it's out for PC.

It's my first thread on this site, so my post may look a little noob-ish.

 

I've been playing GTA Online since launch, for around 2 hours a day and for the most part it's been a pleasant experience. But up until recently (the last month) I've noticed in general, the community of players has just gotten a LOT worse. It feels like the CoD community now, as there's a least one or two arseholes in every lobby (on average) that will kill you and send hate messages to you constantly or verbally abuse you though their headset.

 

Just today in fact, I was invited to the mission Rooftop Rumble. I joined and as I am usually efficient in the way I play, so it was completed fast. I completed it with the dude that invited me, then after he killed me on the spot near the drop-off point, which to be fair I do sometimes "for teh lolz" so I thought fair enough. But he then after killing me destroyed my Zentorno which made him pay 9K to Moore's Mutual Insurance - which was pointless as hell as he set Rooftop Rumble to to easy which means we only got around 12K anyway and he had to pay for grenades etc so he pretty much made no money from it after destroying my car. So I asked why he did it and told him he wasted his money and time, he responded "because its gta". Wtf? So "because its gta" you sit on the game all day (he was like level 250) doing missions pointlessly to then kill and grief people for no reason?

 

So he invited me to Rooftop Rumble again, this time he was even more of an arse. He set it on hard mode, which we still did everything efficiently but up until having to drive the drop-off point it was going well. So he had the document, me and another player were waiting at the drop-off for at least 5 minutes yet the other guy seemed to not care at all, I told him to hurry up via an in-game text message, he then replied saying he's driving as fast as he could (yet he wasn't, he was being a dick killing one of the other players in the lobby for no reason, even though he's helping in the mission). I then told him to hurry up again, he turned on his headset and started talking bullsh*t about if you take longer to deliver it, you can get up to 100K or some crap like that in which he was talking out of his arse. So I turned my headset on to tell him to hurry up and stop talking bullsh*t but he then (as I'm English) started calling me hilariously stupid insults like "cigarette eating British bitch" and said I'm a "noob that doesn't know things like this" (even though I'm level 133 with a positive win/lose ratio on every activity, a near 2.0 k/d and have gotten 100% on story mode lol). So to try and make him finish the mission (rather than waiting and insulting me) I stooped to his level as used petty insults like "fat Amercian McDonald's Eating dumb c*nt" lol which got him angry and made him deliver the document (as he wanted to leave).

 

After I left, he sent me hate messages via in-game texting so I just left the lobby completely as I cba talking to cretins like him. I then joined another lobby, pretty much as soon as I joined and got in my car somebody invited me to their apartment, I asked them why they are inviting me and he started insulting me calling me a "dumbarse" (he was English) so I told him to calm down. I went into his garage as told him he had nice cars (he had all the most expensive cars, fully upgraded), he said he had one billion dollars (in which I knew he must have therefore been a hacker) then called me a noob and left the lobby.

 

What I'm trying to say is, it was never like this at launch (at least in my experience) but now it seems you can't get into a lobby anymore to have fun as everybody are arseholes. I get it's a violent game but keep the abuse virtually, I hate the people that try to justify themselves being a dick and swearing at people through their headset as "its gta bro", it's a videogame at the end of the day and it being violent does not give you an excuse to be a piece of sh*t over your mic.

really? this is the majority of my experience for me since i started back in January. while i love to play the game, the community as a whole has been not so desirable.

[yete420]

um the longer you wait in rooftop rumble the more you get paid........

maxs out around 26k so the guy that was being a troll was right about waiting out the mission

[zoso80]

That is such arrogance.

 

The game is so open world and diverse it is literally anything you want it to be. I enjoy it more for the cars, missions and social aspect. Killing people is boring. I leave that to the douches. Shooting someone point blank unprovoked - lame. Waste your money and ammo to your heart's content.

 

This game is NOT purely about killing anymore. For YOU it's about killing. It's an export of the GTA 4 online mentality. You must have missed the memo.

 

Get it?

Yup and the serial d-bags with their egos. Feeling justified in being sh*tty to complete strangers for whatever reason.

 

There is so much more to the game than virtual dick wagging and who boasts the biggest KD.

People still grind rooftop rumble? Sheesh. I do it once in awhile, but grind it, better missions out there. Normally I am firing up The Los Santos Connection solo taking my 28k payout.

 

Trolls: that's why I play solo much of the time. When people are looking to smear sh*t on you, avoid them. Simple.

 

75% of the time all I can find are trolls or Rooftop Rumble nuts, or a combo of both.

Ignore the in game text messages, set your PSN inbox to friends only, also on the mini menu go to chat, set it to no one, and enjoy your game. If one manages to squeak through just mute him.
