Moderators Astro Hollywood Posted August 15, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted August 15, 2013 Interestingly, it looks like Online doesn't open until October 1st, giving us a couple of weeks to finish the game first. Good news for people like me, who play games for an hour, "take a quick look" at multiplayer, then never leave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted August 15, 2013 Moderators Share Posted August 15, 2013 Haha.. Well, I would say you didn't miss out that much not getting around to completing IV. I'm hoping for more this time though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators neil Posted August 15, 2013 Moderators Share Posted August 15, 2013 Never played GTA online as I feared it would be full of the usual "faggot nutmuncher" calling teenagers. Â This game looks immense though. Seems I could develop a WoW type addiction to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted August 15, 2013 Moderators Share Posted August 15, 2013 It was fun with a group of mates, but I would never have gone on there on my own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Astro Hollywood Posted August 15, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted August 15, 2013 Never played GTA online as I feared it would be full of the usual "faggot nutmuncher" calling teenagers. Â GTA Race mode is the most fun I've ever had gaming. And the first time I went into GTA multiplayer, the day GTA4 launched, I went straight into a team deathmatch where two black guys freestyle rapped about everything that was happening the whole way through. Â I'll spend my life trying to recapture the greatness of that moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The volume of creator tools, missions and items will grow, but at some stage GTA Online will head into new locations. He suggested they were sitting on a lot of content, and it doesn't take a genius to speculate what it might be.  I know what I definitely want it to be Edited August 15, 2013 by iamtheman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanoTheGame Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Is there any chance this might end up on PS4 or Xbox One at all? Both my PS3 and 360 are knackered Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members CleetusVanDamme Posted August 15, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted August 15, 2013 (edited) Probably, but they'll wait a while. They'll sell as many as they can for PS3/360 over the next 6 months or so, then they'll announce an 'enhanced' next-gen/PC version to come out this time next year. Â Good luck waiting that long. Even September 17th feels ages away! I'm going to start playing through the Ballad of Gay Tony again to help kill the time...

Paid Members JNLister Posted August 15, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted August 15, 2013 I wonder how firmly the barrier between the open world and the minigames will be in online? I like to imagine you'll be able to play tennis with someone and then shoot them if you are losing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loki Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Is there any chance this might end up on PS4 or Xbox One at all? Both my PS3 and 360 are knackered  I'm amazed it isn't only next-gen. How they've squeezed all this onto the older consoles I've not idea, although the graphics are a little low res which might explain it. Like Far Cry 3 though, it doesn't really matter as long as it plays well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted August 16, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted August 16, 2013 Low res? Really? It's your area of expertise so you're a better judge but the graphics look amazing to me. Hopefully others like me might not even notice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maytrix Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Only 16 players online? Â They should hurry up and make a proper GTA MMO; it's what I many others have waiting for years for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
