What's with these banned for no reason topics?

[SUPERSAD]

Before I allways thought Rockstar only bans cheaters, but now I know they do not.

[TheGhostFromPast]

After playing GTAO this long I've realized they are worse than EA. More greedy and support is more useless and they don't care about customers at all. The only way how to make Rockstar care about customers and change their attitude is to stop buying their games. I wanted to get GTA III and GTA Vice City so that I would have all GTA games, which are in 3rd person, but I changed my mind after this ban wave, because I realized there's no guarantee I will get my account back in cases when, because of mistake, it's banned. They won't see even 1 cent from me anymore.

[FukNRekd]

People still getting banned? Sounds like their new anti-cheat software is either working fabulously or terribly.

 

Is this only happening to teh master race, err, PC players?

Did you purposefully neglect to read this thread so you could make that comment?

 

Why does any element of "console wars" come into it at all?

If anyone thinks I'll buy a console after this, in order to play Rockstar's games, then he should think again!

Because it is easier to quote an old and outdated meme than coming up with something fresh and creative.

.... Worse than EA ?

 

You obiviously never played FIFA and FUT. In GTAO every, but every item is grindable or affordable through their shark cards. (a "lot" of shark cards but at least you get cash to buy what you want, not like fifa points where you buy packs), but literally, every item is achiveable to get. In FIFA you should spend like 10,000 dollars to HOPE for having full icons team you always wanted, need huuuuuge luck, or to be one of the 1% players database that are good enough to get into top 100 fut champs players (and even than, you need luck). Or go hacking, by trainer for wins or 99 overall hack. This is coming from a former FUT addict, and just imagine - fut only last for a year. in that year you simply cannot easily get all good stuff, and that they matter in that year.

[Re-Dragon-Cro]

So the anti-cheat system is going haywire on PC again?

 

From the looks of it R* screwed up big time this time around.

 

This won't end well that's for sure.

 

*Edit:*

 

Wouldn't call R* worse than EA but they surely are threading on a path towards it considering how most of the latest content is tailored towards trying to make people buy sharkcards. So yeah greed is overtaking them.

True, I've never played FIFA and FUT, but I never had so much issues with games, which has something to do with EA, while with GTA, especially with online, there are many problems. In GTA Online I am forced to deal with modders, if I want to do CEO missions, because even if I have a solo public session there still isn't any guarantee that modder won't show up, while in other online games I've played, including the ones, which has something to do with EA, modders aren't issue. Besides if I won't notice that somehow modder has put money in my bank then I will be banned for spending modded money, just because I missed the moment when I got modded money. Hard to enjoy such a game, when you always have to pay attention to money in bank and have to keep recording where you got it.

^ Usually not.

If you opt for the PC version of this game, you're accepting the all the bs cheating of players & overused punishment systems by R*.

I have to LOL at ^^^^^^!

 

Do you live in a cave? Here, lemme get you up to speed:

 

Us PC-players who wish to avoid all the crap you guys b*tch and moan about (yes, you have a forum topic devoted to just that) does so on FiveReborn, where NONE of the things that console fan-boys have to contend with are regular and routine occurrences. No modders/cheaters, no griefers, no try-hards, no noobs, no getting stuck in clouds, no b*tching nor moaning, LOL. Dedicated private server with admins who keeps all that crap from any of the lobbies. Better performance, tweaks to a.i. so NPC's aren't so ridiculous, graphic enhancers, mods, maps, real HQ vehicle and aircraft models. The only people who play online on a PC are the very people you complain about in your own console-nightmare-fested-universe. PC Master Race - look it up!

[Lonely-Martin]

They are delusional cheaters, forgetful glitchers, and careless modders making hysterical attempts at rallying GTAF users to their cause. That's basically it.

 

Oh I expected you of all to throw some dynamite in here/somewhere similar, lol. Thanks for living up there bub!.

 

But so you know, some of the folk unjustly banned of late, don't have a K/D of 2.0 and put fear into paranoid, hypocritical Tom Cruise fans. Genuinely.

[TheGhostFromPast]

If after 2-4 years new console will come out then I'll be laughing about those, who think console is better than PC, because after 2-4 years I still will be able to play new games on my PC, while console users will be forced to buy a new console, because they won't be able to play new games on their current console, not even on lowest settings.

 

It's not PC's fault that this happens in their game on PC, it's Rockstar's fault! Other online games I've played on PC doesn't have such issues.

Common, I can buy a new console for half the price of a new GPU for my PC . The PS5 will be fully backwards compatible (being a PC in a box like the PS4 is) and I'll be playing GTA online on that.. same copy.. 60 frames, no doubt about it. So consoles do have that.. Anyway the ban is still ongoing?

And when you will buy PS 5 in order to play new games I won't have to buy anything, because I still will be able to play new games with my current PC. That's one reason why PC is better. The other reason why PC is better, because it has way more functions than console has, besides gaming!

It was an honest question actually (PC only affected by teh ban schtick). I wanted to make sure my slow-ass XB1 was not affected.

 

What I find ironically humorous is how "in-your-face" and "hihihi" teh Master Race err, PC players are when life is good but how it brings out the butte-hurt when it gets thrown back in their face that there's good and bad to everything. There's enough salt growing here to feed cup-o-nuddles to everyone playing GTA right now.

I have many modern PCs that could play any game, I choose not to though because that's just not my thing. I use PC's for PC stuff and gaming systems for games. I've always done this but that's another discussion for another day

If you are waiting for an official statement your gonna wait a long time buddy.

All they're gonna do is take a biga$$ broom and push that stuff under the rug claiming that nothing out of the ordinary has happened and that their system works 100% correct.

Thats the "nothing has happened if we don't admit it" policy that many big companys use these days to keep their shareholders happy.

Remember the mystery 1.35 million? R* can't do simple handing out cash right, what could we expect their anticheat system.

I'm playing in a public session with 30 players the whole day just fine. But i'm lucky as hell and never ever encountered a ban on my primary account.

[30mething...]

Remember the mystery 1.35 million? R* can't do simple handing out cash right, what could we expect their anticheat system.

 

hmm... that reminds me... My first banned account was the day right after I got that amount (I forgot, from loyalty or some shxt)... I constantly begged R* to take a look at it... stating that my earn/ spent amount didn't add up situation might led to my ban... and as usual, R* never responded... Which led to me buying my 2nd copy of the game..

 

I am really disgusted on how the way R* Support works... They shouldn't even have R* Support in the first place if they didn't aim to support customers...

[TCA]

i got banned once and that was during the billionare bounties.....come on that sh*t was fun you gotta admit.

It was.

[Fugitive69]

This stinks that only next gen consoles are free from cheaters. I'm sure PC gamers could be free from them too, if someone would actually want to make it sure cheaters can't cheat like that.

 

 

Indeed. The reason theres a problem with cheaters on PC is because there are no dedicated servers. I can imagine some console plebs probably think theres the same problem with every other online game on PC. No, its not.

[rlk232]

They seem to both randomly give away money and ban people. I personally know of instances of each, it's bizarre. They are so effing incompetent.

Keep your console vs. PC discrepancies out of the discussion please - I'm aware you lot can make mountains of molehills when it comes to this but there's no place for elitism here, regardless of the circumstances of your ban or the platform you play on. Pack it in or I'll start handing out free vacations away.
