Still no word on Heists for GTA Online following Take-Two's earnings call

Gamezone: "Rockstar Games' parent-company Take-Two yesterday held its Q1 2015 earnings call, but sadly we learned nothing new about the future of Grand Theft Auto Online, particularly the eagerly awaited Heists."

An earnings call would be a strange time to mention free dlc (no way R* should charge for something that was promised before launch).

who gives a shi* if you want heists so bad play payday, jesus christ, whats so damn f***en fun about stealing a bank, and escaping, its the same ****

YodaCracker3550d ago

It was a feature promised to be in the game. Players are still waiting for this feature almost a year after release.

gigoran3550d ago

You do understand that their version of "heist" is going to resemble missions that are already present in the game as well as a much much MUCH less payout than what you and others are expecting, right?

Prepare to be disappointed.

Shad0wRunner3550d ago

Because Payday, heists or not....aint no GTA. Never will be GTA...and will never be as good as GTA. Those hardcore fans of GTA, dont give a hot sh!t about Payday. LOL.

In the world of Gran Theft Auto, all other games are irrelevant.

Blacktric3550d ago

"who gives a shi*"

People who play GTA Online do.

"whats so damn f***en fun about stealing a bank, and escaping, its the same ****"

Having fun with your friends and even other people maybe? How hard is that to wrap your head around?

They waiting for Ps4/XboxO/Pc realse simple.

Bodge3550d ago

I haven't been up to date on the heists thing, did they hype this up or what? I thought they only briefly mentioned it in the GTA Online trailer...

hay3550d ago (Edited 3550d ago )

Yeah, as one of the main things to do. I still think those heists they were talking about were shop robberies which are from day one, and now they just might simply try to achieve some middle ground, which in the way they do things, isn't as fast as everybody would hope for.

IMO GTA should have close to infinite content(more generators, editors and bigger game area), I'd never get off Online.

psuedo3550d ago

You were supposed to plan, and do heists just like in singleplayer. It was even in the plan to be able to double cross people to steal their share of the loot.

My biggest gripe is that you can never find people playing things like capture the bag. Obviously they did not work on multiplayer until the last minute. They have been stuffing our faces with free stuff hoping you wouldnt notice their broken product. Basically someone needs to sue R* not sony.

Thar she blows! That be a whale!! Let's talk to them mateys!

@disagrees
Didn't have a good rebuttal did you? We all know the select players are whales who waste thousands or hundreds of thousands on the games currency. You expect them to make the same kinds of demands as everyone else? Keep dreaming.

Inverno32d ago

Well that and most likely streamers who have helped harpoon all those whales lolz.

Why is this news? Is this supposed to be some sort of heads up to those involved?

Kombatologist39d ago

Why shouldn't this be news? If you play the game at all, you'd know this has been a problem for a while. Tell me, how is it fair for legit low-level players to be grieved by players using modded accounts with disposable amounts of cash? It's about time Rockstar did something about these losers.

BISHOP-BRASIL39d ago (Edited 39d ago )

Not that I really played it in forever, but the way I used to roll on online once I realize I had no interest in actually doing heists and micromanaging property and shit, the moment someone decided to pick a fight I'd just leave towards north, jump the fence of the army base, steal a jet and grief away... Pro tip: they can't really make you pay for other players cars when you have not one single penny to your name.

EDIT: Got carried away... Anyway, my point was, you can grief without money, this is not stopping it.

Kombatologist39d ago

@BISHOP-BRASIL

I get what you're trying to say, but it's a false equivalence. Anyone could jump the fence and grab a jet back in the day. The dynamic changed once R* started introducing militarized vehicles, such as flying motorcycles with homing rockets, a stealth helicopter, and most recently, a stealth jet. There's so many militarized vehicles now, you really have to keep up with the latest and greatest in order to defend yourself from that shit, which is really expensive to do. Sure, you could make the argument that Shark Cards give players the same advantage as a modded account. The thing is, they don't. Not even close. A modded account can have ANY amount of money, as well as ANY weapon and/or vehicle, even ones that aren't available in the game yet (as long as they're in the datafiles). Some of them even have glitched characters with invisible limbs/weapons. This is an unfair advantage to anyone who plays legitimately and nobody should have to risk getting their accounts permanently banned from stooping to the same level just to compete. Furthermore, making money is really easy to do now. Which begs the question: Why buy a modded account in the first place? I think the answer is obvious.

So this is news because a Twitter guy says so :)
