Just give me cops vs robbers already! That was the best mode in GTA 4

Audiggity3144d ago

Agreed.

Cops vs Robbers was awesome and I think they'd be wise to release Free Mode based assassinations. Similar to the convoy destruction missions in Watch Dogs... but you could do it alone or with a small group.

Hopefully the 9/15 update also fixes the connectivity issues still plaguing the PC version...

Hello Rockstar?!?!? WTF?

Detox0243144d ago

My crew and I made several versions of cops vs robbers just look them up under my tag and don't forget to thumb it up bitches lol

360/xone
Enjoy

Audiggity3144d ago

YES! Can't wait... free mode activities make a ton of sense... heists are too involved and if one little tiny thing goes wrong and a player drops their connection, the whole effort was for nothing.

Very annoying.

Free mode events is great.

GHOSTxx4203144d ago

Now if itll put me in a freemode with other people i could enjoy this

user99502793143d ago

People still having this issue? Wow? New gen consoles? I get dropped in a busy room 100% of the time on X1. But my connection is blistering fast.

GHOSTxx4203143d ago

Yea mine is to around 100 mbps to be exact and i always get kicked out of a free mode or any other mode for that matter... I always have to play private lobbies

Skate-AK3143d ago

I haven't played the game in probably 6 months but I don't remember that happening to me on PS4.

EazyC3144d ago

What about SP? So disappointed, that's why I bought it again for this gen...

Kalebninja3143d ago

Yeah its been months since pc release and we've seen nothing.

DoctorFry3143d ago

Not just that. It's been TWO YEARS since the game's initial release back in 2013 and we've still seen nothing.

DoctorFry3143d ago

Looks pretty lame. I love how they tried to make the game look all dynamic in the trailer, when in reality the traffic diversity is awful, there are nowhere near as many vehicles on the road or peds.

EazyC3143d ago

The community is comprised of utter arseholes too, just constantly shooting each other.

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.

Inverno25d 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?

Kombatologist32d 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-BRASIL32d ago (Edited 32d 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.

Kombatologist32d 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.

Petebloodyonion32d ago

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