damn gta online died off that quick? crazy...you know what tho it was hella weird to drop a big title that close to two next gen consoles dropping..especially if ps4 just came out...weird decision to me
Right? Imagine the PR move to offer GTA V as the first game on PS4. Fans would first be angry as fuck, and then they wuold haqve rushed out and bought that shit. They probably wouldnt have enough consoles on hand to supply the demand.

Also, imagine GTA V on a next gen console. Imagine not seeing 8 jeeps in a row when looking for a dope car to steal and upgrade..

All i know is the next GTA is going to be insane.

Im glad I saved the actual gameplay. Ive been playing online a lot since the day it came out.

Im 17% completed of the game, once I finish (sometime in the few weeks to come) I will get back online then probably stop shortly after.

do they seriously try to get you to buy money for GTA online? that shit is ridiculous bro.

its like when i had that application on my iphone to feed chop...when you run out of food and soda and shit like that to feed your dog, they try to tell you that you can buy him more food. around that time, i decided my dog could just die, if its like that. hella not about to use my credit card every 15 minutes to feed a virtual dog thats part of a video game.

there was absolutely no point of feeding the dog on that app. and i didnt teach him any tricks, or any of that. all chop did was take dumps in front of his house. did any of you? what tricks were there to be taught? that application would hit me every 15 minutes and tell me that i need to feed or give chop something to drink. i couldnt believe how fucking annoying that shit was. come ot find out they were trying to get money out of me? smh how greedy

they need to be happy with the 60-70 dollars they charge us for the game and stop trying to get double that with dlc's and online and so on. that shit is not cool. might be the reason i dont get a ps4 or xbox one....like are games going to be 70 dollars or are they going to be 140.00? and then on top of that, they charge for xbox online as well?

So in other words I'll have to buy another console in about seven years give or take? I'm cool with that lol.

Also I have a question for anyone who wants to give their input. As someone who of course doesn't play video games much that bought a PS3 solely for this game would it be worth picking IV and/or the side games or whatever the fuck they are? Or after playing this do you think I'd be kinda like "Ehhh this is such a step down" in terms of graphics, game play, and all that.

It's a step down. A few step downs imo. The story/missions are pretty good, it's more serious kinda grimy. There isn't much "fun" (no custom car mods, not a lot of clothes, no haircuts, not a lot of jumps, etc). You have to do some tedious stuff like date woman (take them to dinner etc), hang out with ur friends, stuff like that.

Worth playing though. There are a few awesome missions.

...And if you fail a mission, you get a new mission that goes with it -driving the entire way back to the starting point.

The GTA Online Beach Bum Update is Now Available

The GTA Online Beach Bum Update is Now Available

November 19, 2013 10:06AM



The world of Grand Theft Auto Online gets even deeper with the Beach Bum update, now available on both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. In order to keep GTA Online flexible and constantly evolving, the game is built to receive new content in a variety of ways including major paid expansions at specific points across the year, dropping additional content via regular title updates, and even the instant and seamless addition of jobs via the Rockstar Social Club. The Beach Bum content comes via a free update to GTA Online and Grand Theft Auto V's Story Mode as part of the latest automatic Title Update (1.06), so just fire up your console to download it. Alongside additional game tuning (see details below), the Beach Bum update includes:


NEW VEHICLES, WEAPONS & MORE
Take on new Beach Bum Races with the BF Bifta dune buggy, the rugged Canis Kalahari off-road truck or the Bravado Paradise beach camper van. For aquatic-based endeavors, the classic Speeder speedboat is also now available. All four vehicles can also be accessed in Story Mode and are available at no in-game cost. To access them in GTA Online, just visit the southernsanandreassuperautos.com in-game website (or docktease.com for the Speeder).

Also available in both Story Mode and Online (and at no additional in-game cost) are the new SNS Pistol & Broken Bottle - a pair of close range weapons perfect for any beach blanket brouhaha.

This update also features a wide array of new apparel - everything from casual canvas hats to tank tops, t-shirts, board shorts and bikinis in a wide range of styles and colors... plus new hairstyle and tattoo customization options.

30 NEW JOBS COMING TO THE WORLD OF LOS SANTOS & BLAINE COUNTY
In conjunction with today's Beach Bum update, we're also adding 30 new Jobs to GTA Online today. This includes new beach-themed Races, Deathmatches, Parachutes, Last Team Standings and Gang Attacks, plus the beachfront "Survival on Del Perro Pier" and more.



TITLE UPDATE 1.06
Along with the new Beach Bum update content, automatic Title Update 1.06 also includes a host of fixes and adjustments for Grand Theft Auto Online, which are listed here:



Fixed an issue where the game would delete your personal Vehicle if you have another player in it when you add a Tracker and Insurance.
Fixed an issue where players could become stuck on the aerial view when entering GTA Online with cloud servers down and having just launched a mini-game.
Fixed an issue where the mission 'Damaged Goods' would start even though it had previously been completed.
Fixed an issue where under rare circumstances players couldn't claim back their personal vehicle in GTA Online.
Fixed an issue where under rare circumstances players were able to get the Declasse Sheriff SUV into Los Santos Customs and respray it causing the menus to malfunction.
Fixed an issue where in rare circumstances players would lose all personal vehicles after being idle kicked and unable to rejoin an online session.
Fixed an issue where players could occasionally get stuck after killing a pedestrian with a golf ball.
Corrected an exploit where players would retain their personal vehicle after selling it at Los Santos Customs mod shop by transitioning back and forth between Story Mode and Online.
Corrected an exploit where players could keep repeatedly selling a Bati 801 to Los Santos Customs.
Corrected an exploit where players were able to duplicate vehicles by accepting a Mission while leaving a high-end garage.
Corrected an exploit where a player could start a Team Deathmatch with all players on the same team.
Players are no longer able to delete their GTA Online character while the Rockstar cloud servers are unavailable.




DYNAMIC TUNING TO GTA ONLINE
In tandem with today's Title Update, we've also completed a new round of dynamic tuning on the game. This includes changes to the Bad Sport system and continued balancing of rewards for all different types Jobs. Notable adjustments are listed below:


The Bad Sport penalty for destroying personal vehicles has been reduced significantly.
Players will no longer receive a Bad Sport penalty when they are in a non-moving tank and other players crash a vehicle into them.
The GTA$ and RP rewards for Races, Deathmatches and Parachuting are now based on the average time they take to complete.
Players now receive GTA$ and RP rewards when failing a cooperative Job or being a member of the losing team during a Versus Mission, depending on how long the Job / Mission lasts.
Players now receive a bonus GTA$ multiplier for Missions when played at the higher difficulty levels (Normal = 1.25, Hard = 1.5).
In Team Deathmatch, all players on a team now receive the same GTA$ and RP rewards, with the winning team getting roughly 4-5x what the losing team receives.
Removed some instances of debris in specific Races, including the cardboard from the 'Down the Drain' Race.
Deliveries from Pegasus have been reduced from $1,000 to $200.
The cost of removing a wanted level by calling Lester has now been scaled based on the amount of stars you have - at a cost of $200 per star.
Restricted cars and vehicles that have been added to player garages through exploits have been removed. This includes tanks, helicopters and police vehicles.
The following vehicles have been added to the southernsanandreassuperautos.com website in-game: BF Dune Buggy, Canis Bodhi, Karin Rebel, Maibatsu Sanchez 2, Vapid Sadler, Vapid Sandking SWB.
To eliminate any remaining vehicle loss issues, an additional automatic cloud save will occur when purchasing a vehicle or vehicle modification.

Anybody lose their modded cars like the police SUV? I still have my space docker even tho I never use it I still like it haha
the granger or the sheriff suv?

IDK if they consider the sheriff SUV "restricted". If it;s the granger I'll be pissed. I had replaced the sheriff SUV w/ a tank which is probably gone.Whats dumb is they;re calling it an "exploit". I didn;t use an exploit I jacked the SUV when someone was in a shootout in Blaine County. No exploit there.
