Mid Night Club Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I wanted to know whether GTA V can be activated offline like with GTA IV's offline activation mode. I'm desperate because my PC can't connect to the internet any time soon. Please help...

Bolcksta Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Sadly we can't give you any promises, but I'm sure Rockstar will include that option. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/764047-gta-v-pc-offline-installation/#findComment-1066885093 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can use your phone connection to activate it, then use offline mode till there is "periodic entittlement", or use another means of playing... Also why have KSI signature?

PittDawg Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Just read this, Other requirements: Installation and online play requires log-in to Rockstar Games Social Club (13+) network; internet connection required for activation, online play, and periodic entitlement verification; software installations required including Rockstar Games Social Club platform, DirectX , Chromium, and Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 sp1 Redistributable Package, and authentication software that recognizes certain hardware attributes for entitlement, digital rights management, system, and other support purposes. http://store.steampowered.com/app/271590/ Sounds like you may need to have an online connection 24/7 just to play, and if you change any hardware components in your pc you may be screwed.

Xerukal Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 and if you change any hardware components in your pc you may be screwed. That makes no sense. The fine print is just standard Social Club stuff. It'll probably work in exactly the same way as LA Noire and Max Payne 3.

I don't really think "periodic software entitlement" means you have to be online 24/7. And I don't think you would be "screwed" if you change any hardware, you still have the game registered in your social club and Steam acounts. That's all that matters at the end of the day.

Xerukal Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 It would be pretty funny if the game went "Oops, you can't play on this PC" just because you upgraded from your old i3.

Arya35 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Does periodic mean 24/7? Also, the only change that I think will matter is the motherboard, and not any storage devices or cpu. It's only a 'different' pc when you change that, even if it's the same model, so make sure you don't fry it or something.

Adelthorne Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Well if they do something similare as they did to GTA IV, You can install the game but not save until you register your copy online.

K20 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 best bet is tethering the phone to net, and connect it when instal asks you to connect to net, to same call costs. other thing you can do is wait a month or two, and wait for a crack install file or something. i'm sure by then someone will have found a way past it. someone always does.

PhillBellic Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 If that is the case, I'm hoping there is a script developed to disable the online checking. I'm hoping it is just something similar to what was put in place for a GTA IV installation.

The only game i have pirated is cod after mw1... because it's the same bullsh*t after mw1... i can't find a demo of it and i keep hoping something will be different in the next cod.... switched to BF last week... anyways... if there is no other way.. i'll just buy gta v and put a online crack or something...
