Version 1.0 Lobbies on PC/XBox One/PS4... What R U Excited About?

[Charles_Lee_Raye]

 

 

God I'm glad op is not a rockstar employee. This sounds like the vision of a demented battlefield game.

It's progress. It's evolution. Its Darwinism. GTAO major shortcoming is its limitations. By giving us a true open world where we can use mods the way we want us to, not as Rockstar tells us to, it levels the playing field. Sure, I can have a Gold Chrome Piano with NOS and Tank rounds. But what is stopping you from doing the same and combatting it?

Knowledge. If we dont know how to thats whats stopping us.

 

Youll be very happy on the pc servers op.

 

Thats why servers will be segregated because console gamers are not as mod/hack savvy as pc. So the pc servers will have the majority of the insanity you so desire while the console servers should be more stable until enough time passes to figure out the workaround and hacks.

Who else is excited about Version 1.0 lobbies for PC/Xbox One/PS4???

 

Well, here we go again.

When all of the new versions come out (XB1/PS4/PC), so will a new version of online.

 

Let’s say that “somehow,” these lobbies don’t get “beta-tested” as much as Rockstar would like. Anybody remember the early days of GTAO? Let me refresh your memory: there were billion-dollar lobbies, PV NOS rapid-fire tanks and pink jets in garages.

 

Well, let’s also say that PC Players get to join their Xbox One/PS4 brethren in these online lobbies, so called non-denominational “Super Lobbies.” Maybe Rockstar gets their act together and figures out a way for all three platforms to play against each other online. That will open a lot of opportunities for “creative” players out there…

 

Given that, what are the top three things you’re looking forward to in this “new and improved next-gen” GTA Online?

 

Here are mine.

#1) NEW WEAPONS (E.G., NUKES) - with increased draw distance and superior hardware, who knows what we’ll see. I'm not talking about additional guns or knives on the weapons wheel. Perhaps we’ll finally have nukes, suitcase bombs, dirties, the nuke mini-gun, etc. And if Xbox 360/PS3 players are thrown into the same lobbies, it could be used as an “exclusive content” type of thing where 360/PS3 players don’t have the new weapons (due to HW limitations), but X1/PS4 players do. So, we’d have some players using the auto shot while the opposing players will be spamming nukes on them.

#2) GOLD TANKS - Hopefully, we’ll get back our gold, NOS/turbo, rapid-fire tanks. TBH, Online is borrrring without those things. Time to dust off your JTAG and RGH. The single best feature of early GTAO was the customization... pink Lazers, chrome Riot Vans, etc. If you see this on Day One, say hi, because that's me (and that's your Adder underneath):

…and finally, #3) BRING BACK THE CREATIVITY. Little things like the following… Let fellow players from the GTA Community show off their imagination! Rockstar, bring back the fun! *Note to self, find my old hex files... piano_color_1 needs to be chrome.

I know everyone can't wait to play these new versions of online, I know I can't!

What are the Top 3 things you’d want to see in the new Grand Theft Auto Online???

Perhaps they'll all let us play together??? They will figure that out if they want full servers.

I just want to know how the PC lobbies are even going to be playable?? I mean with the modding that went on on consoles, isn't modding on PC easier? /newbquestion

[k33g]

^Yeah it will be modded to sh*t, good thing the PC community makes some pretty cool mods, check out what they did with IV (mostly good, lol)

[Charles_Lee_Raye]

^^^^ Scuba I believe they said we were getting segregated servers but I cant recall the source. Something about ps and xbox not being compatible.

 

Which is bs because it was achieved on PS2 xbox generation when FFXI was released. With the hdd add on to the ps2 old box version and built in hdd on the original xbox both systems users were able to play on servers with pc players all together in harmony.

 

This is however the only game I know of which had multi system access to the same servers.

 

Battlefield or any of those games share servers?

 

If noone else has done it since ps2 online gaming I dont see them bothering. Probably too much work.

God, your posts hurt my eyes.

 

I'M NOW PARTICIPATING IN A SCUBADAVE ®©(PP) VERIFIED POST

 

lol

[OrangeLucidity]

btw, WHO THE HELL ARE YOU AND WHY DO YOU ANNOUNCE YOUR ANNOYING PRESENCE LIKE ITS A GIFT FROM THE GODS?

 

 

I don't care for your cheap mods, and no I don't like 10 gay chrome tanks with little girls (aka SCUBADAVE! ®®®®R®R®R®) coming towards me.

 

 

get off your high horse

interesting... yes, I believe it would be technically possible seeing as Rockstar could be the centralized game server (even though now it is a P2P connection, they could have some kind of in-between to mediate the sessions). I am assuming then it comes down to that Microsoft and Sony can't agree or don't want to agree on mixing of their online players for whatever reason (probably $$$). dont know about Battlefield. However I do hope at least Ps3/ps4 can mix and xb1 and xb360 can mix otherwise there will be some empty servers for a while, but maybe thats all about the $$$ also getting people to upgrade their consoles.

HAHA. Looking like James May. Are realistic bugs included?

[Ballistic Jello]

Ya know. I use to hate Scubadave. Now he just f*ckin cracks me up. Who ya hurtin' with a chrome piano with tank rounds that weighs as much as a bus? It's not the power, it's the abuse of the power, so arm them all and let a higher being sort it out!

This was my thinking as well when I heard about the segregated servers. Old gen and new wont mix becuase new supports 30 players among other reasons. By segregating the servers and having seemingly small/empty servers on all systems they probably hope to push new consoles.

 

These companies no longer care about PS3/360 they want us all to upgrade. Yah theyll support them for a time but not forever. I was thinking they would do a console bundle like Destiny did but no news yet.

Everything will be better.

I'm excited about more Scubadave threads.

I never heard of him till today. Why is he exciting to you?

Just an update. So, the lobbies will be segregated most likely, so PC may not be able to OFFICIALLY play on xbox live. but that does not address the xbox live console hack that the PC runs that puts you onto the XBL service. and since its not a console, or at least they are faking the console ID, I don't see how they can stop/ban a particular PC when the consoleID will be changing. So, bottom line is, look for gold chrome piano tanks coming soon to a lobby near you!

are we really having to wait for PC to get the matte gold pianos out with rapidfire? new versions of gta5, i'll have to admit, lacks the creativity we've been waiting 12 months for. Yes, I like the glossy reflections and detail, but give us something really next gen pls

[ugotsmoked]

In your opinion. I don't like gold.
