We have received reports from some players who experienced losing characters, progress, items, and/or in-game cash during the first few days after release.
Grand Theft Auto V was released on PC on the 14th of April 2015. That means the game will be nine years old in four days, and it’s still among the most-played titles on Steam. With a 24-hour peak of 145K players, it’s as popular as Baldur’s Gate 3, Apex: Legends, and Destiny 2.
The freedom to explore large areas, approach objectives in multiple ways, and stumble across amusing distractions will always be an excellent format for video games, but some do it better than others. To celebrate the formula and parse the best from the best, have a look at the best open-world games of all time so far.
Red Dead Redemption 2 and GTA 5 are both classics, but movement and general interaction sometimes feels like you're possessed by a fridge.
Rockstar need to learn that 12 years of work and 5000 employees doesn’t account for one persons opinion on the internet…
Oh and hundreds of millions of dollars in revanue to boot.
Lots of complaints about gta ever since the hd era started and yet it's bugger than its ever been with gta vi up to 180 million trailer views alone. The next game is shaping it be be another genre defining game
The controls of RDR2 felt a but cluncky indeed, but it’s not as bad as some make it out to be. At no point did I get the feeling my experience with the game was held back or ruined by the controls.
But it can never hurt to optimize them a bit, sure.
I did accidentally beat someone to death a couple times. An unfortunate mistake but besides that I didn't have any problems with the controlls
Red Dead Redemption felt clunky at first but I got used to it fairly quick. I thought 2 was easier to control but it could be my experience with the first game helped me out. Great games
I wouldn't call Rockstar games characters clunky instead they feel like they move with Weight they are not twitch controls press x to instantly snap onto cover the characters instead move like a actor would ducking behind cover they are exposed while they get there.
Nice to hear them actually acknowledge this, but its getting increasingly frustrating. The worst thing for me is being split up from crew members and it taking ages for lobbies to fill up.
The fact its so fun when it works only makes it more infuriating when it doesn't.
i'm one of those victim's, sadly 14 hours just went down to hell
with just a little over a month till the ps4 release im losing my patients with this game im gettin ready to turn it in while i can still get a nice price for it
From my experience, people loosing their characters is due to the character not loading all the way with rank etc. (happened to me). What I did is turn my console off and get back on and my character loaded all the way. If you join a session with your character at level 1, DO NOT DO ANY MISSIONS, the auto save will save over your previous rank and stick you with a character at level 1. Just quit GTA Online till your character fully loads from the cloud. Worked for me. As for the loss of money, you loose upwards of 2300$ Each time you die while doing a mission. I think that's excessive.
The new issue is now.. you cannot play any activities, or missions. It was working fine in the afternoon though.
Not sure whats going on now.
