How unplayable has the game become?

Alot of us have experianced some type of issues while playing this game. Im curious to see how many of us actually have issues .

I personally have to deal with most of these issues on a daily basis and my game is borderline unplayable most of the time. I try to keep my cache and cookies clear but the lag lately is just constant and basically unbearable.

 

Anyone out there who can still play this game without any issues or are we all screwed?

 

This weekend I tried to do the event playlist. Took 3 attempts, and one involved a console restart.

 

But in general, with my router setup 100% port forwarding, the game works fine. There is glitches / odd issues / stability problems and it annoys me that Rockstar hasn't focused on this more - e.g. if Launcing Session.... fails I should not need to restart the game from scratch... BUT it's still very playable and fun.

 

I haven't noticed any serious lag, maybe they adjusted their network coding and it's screwing up your particular situation? That happened to me, after an update I suddenly needed to manually port forward the router to get the thing to work 100% without big ass delays or crashes (yet other people seemed to have had no problems).

This game was never unplayable.

If you have issues, contact Rockstar support. If you actually cared about the issues you experience you would do something about it. Crying on here proved otherwise.

GTA Online is free. Rockstar is investing lots of money into this game to maintain it, at zero extra cost to you. You are not entitled to anything in GTA Online. You agreed to the Terms and Conditions that Rockstar reserve the right to do whatever they please.

 

another dick lol

 

i simply asked who has gameplay issues and who does not and why. You make the thread what you want of it.

 

When i can not get online for 2 hours at a time because of time outs to me thats pretty f*ckin unplayable. I dont know about you but the back of my game clearly says FEATURING GRAND THEFT AUTO ONLINE...which mind you i paid 60 bucks for. Id love to hear how you got your game for free lol

 

Rockstar have stated that GTA Online is a separate entity. You paid $60 for GTA V, not Online. The GTA V disc is required for access, but that does not mean GTA Online shipped with GTA V.

Funny how you resort to name-calling because I'm providing the opposite side of the "argument".

wtf is with you guys today lol you can not argue facts. You saying i payed 60 for gta v and not online is just one dicks opinion. If it was seperate it should have come on a seperate disc. My game came with 1 disc not 2.

Tried to search some LTS jobs to see what people created. It took the game 5 legit minutes to get me kicked out from the queue and another 5 minutes to get me kicked out from GTA Online without even playing. So yeah, all that timeout bullsh*t is back and is stronger than ever.

 

Thankfully I have to stay away from the console 4 days a week (Monday to Thursday) because of high school.

Well if GTA:O truly was "free" why can't I download it from the PSN store for free like other F2P titles? Because, you know, it's not free...

Every time I expand the map on screen the game in whatever mode I'm in freezes for a moment.

 

It's funny it's got worst now when the current gen versions are coming soon :evilgrin:

This is really the only problem I'm encountering. I hate it though.

When the "dick" in question's opinion is given by Rockstar Games, that's the fact, not what you want to believe, sir.

 

I'd say the real dick is the guy who made a two option poll: one with every conceivable problem any player could possibly have, and one for "none". Gee, wonder if someone wanted everyone to vote "yes"?

 

 

It's deliberate. As the current gen is gonna be released soon their aim is to make the game run as horrible as possible to give the impression that the current gen will resolve these issues due to more powerful hardware.

 

You're an total moron. If your IQ was slightly higher, you might be able to drool on yourself.

it does require some tweaking and hotfixing, but it's still quite playable :)

 

Agreed, still playable. I think that GTA0 pushes the consoles to the limit, and we see some effects of that. Regarding the network and server issues that cause stutter and lag, that's a bit different. I think those problems could be optimized. I wonder how it will be on PS4 and XB1?

 

Online games at twitch speed certainly present a challenge. But we're paying the best companies in the world to meet these challenges.

Paid £42 which is typically the full price for any new game. Have not paid a single penny since then. Servers are free to play on, no paid DLC.

I get the occasional timeout and pop-in issue, but otherwise I'm good...

 

 

Well, I'm good until I try to quit the game. Dashboarding from Online usually freezes my Xbox, sooooo...

Ah, so you're just another jackass conspiracy theorist...that explains a lot. Paranoid much?

 

And no, I won't go make a poll about something f*cking stupid and pointless that's been hammered into the ground long, long ago...you can look like an asshole all by yourself.

Actually, I was initially calling you AN idiot, but changed my mind and went with MORON at the last minute. Of course, me leaving an extra letter in while editing makes me much dumber than the guy who thinks Rockstar is purposely trying to f*ck up their game so people upgrade. (And funnier, the only one who agrees with you is the schmuck who made this retarded thread to being with.)

 

So, in closing, you're A stupid c*nt. Better?
