Hello again Escapist,
As you may or may not know I can be a very, lets say, angry person when stupid things happen that can easily be avoided. I will give you examples later in my life, but really Rockstar, or as the fans may call them "R*", are confusing me. Giving me conflicting thoughts really. No its not the sex and violence cause I am use to that and have been use to that since I was little kid but it's more to do with the massive difference between GTA V and GTA Online. Yes this is another GTA thread but bare with me. I rate GTA V for it's story and good game play, not the best game play but still good. Yes the characters are annoying and not easy at all to relate too but it's part of the story and hello it's GTA. Then I go on too GTA online and that's when things just go down hill.
Yes there are loads of missions but then they just start to repeat themselves and worse you get low pay for doing them. Cops have the most perfect aim and completely out of control cause even if you stand near them they shoot you point blank. When you think you are clear from a high speed pursuit they spawn in front of you. BUT then again I use different tactics to outsmart them, I'm an adapter. I know Rockstar wants to make things tougher but this is a little over the top. You know what that isn't even the problem, the problem here are the following...
Glitches and Bugs mid mission - who would have guessed it, during a mission the game decides to give up on you and not give you the needed instructions to carry on completing the game. eg. In the middle of a Martin mission and had to blow up 2/3 trucks filled with coke and wait for further instructions once they where blown up. A group of us did that but did the message come? NOPE. We were stuck, nothing to do. What was meant to happen was once we destroyed those tracks we were meant to destroy a few more with one of them being guarded by an attack helicopter. Cause we didnt get that mission it was a "Mission Failed"... BULLSHIT!
Another I experienced was a mission where I needed a helicopter to go to the top of a building. I wasn't given one first hand so I thought "hey lets go to Blaine County Airfields", Nope nothing there. "Let's go to the other smaller airfield", Nope nothing. "Let's go to the Hospital", Not a single one, "This is getting stupid lets go to the Helipad", guess what? NOTHING. "Airport?", You guessed it no chance. So I thought I will call Lester, *busy tone*. Okay fuck this, so I called Merriweather, cost me $6000 but finally got somewhere. Killed the guy (which is the only way to get the heli myself), went to the top of the building but was sniped out by a sniper. So was I did a quick restart and I called Merriweather again but then get what "Do to our recent business with you, we decide our services to you are no longer available for the image of our company"... FUCK... YOU!!!!!!! I turned off the game and went to play a classic PS game Oddworld cause I haven't got time for bullshit.
It weren't just the massive bugs and glitches but the latest update or "Patch" fixed many other problems but a little hidden secret thanks to Rockstar, It halved the mission payout. Thats right if you "join" a mission you get half. So a shitty car repo mission from Simoen is now worth $1000. Whats even worse is that the payout is in consistent. Today 4 of us were doing a mission, a guy and I went and did all and I mean ALL the work, killing the infinite spawn of enemies, and delivering the coke and the other two were just pissing about in their fast cars having a damn race and not getting a single kill cause they were in the desert. We passed the mission and guess what, The guy and i that actually did the work got half of the pay out and the other two got the full $18000, He was the host and for some reason he got half but other two or joined and did fuck all got the most. I call BULL FUCKING SHIT on that one.
So I looked online seeing if others had similer problems to mine and many are having the same experiences but its the massive fanboys are hating those who complain. I get it, if the bugs happened only once or twice it's not a big deal but if it keep happening every 2 missions, I think someone has a right to complain.
Fanboys: "Why don't you guys just stop complaining and give rock star a chance, cause I never experienced these bugs and maybe you are all shit at the game."
Well if you pay £50 or whatever for a game you kinda expect some answers and less bullshit. Also don't anyone defend the whole in game micro-transaction part of the game cause that's a con. You have money in your in game bank account eg. $90,000 but no cash in your hand and you want to buy a $1 soda, instead of Rockstar saying "Please go into your in game account and withdrew cash" but nooooooooo instead it says, "If you want cash, please go to the Playstation Store and paying for in game cash". REAL MONEY!! Rockstar you already made back twice as much money in the few week of launch twice over, but why are you asking for more money and making mission prices pay out less? Equally bad you stated you will reduce the players stats over time if they don't go on GTA Online for a while? REALLY? You will punish those for going on holiday for a few weeks or in a worse case scenario, their console or controller broke and had to wait until payday to get another another one? I get you want people to carry on playing the game but once again that's outrageous and a slap in the face to fans who brought the game.
Okay I have ranted on for a long time now and sorry if I bored you but I would like to know what you think of what I said and even share your own bad GTA Online moments. Sorry I just had to let that all out but funny thing is there is more to say but I really don't want to bore you with so much. Comment below and I appreciate you all for listening and reading... mostly reading.
P.S. I miss old PS one games
