Top 5 Things To Do While I Wait For GTA Online To Work

Max Level: "If you’re like me, you’ve been anticipating the launch of Grand Theft Auto Online for what seems to be eons now. When Rockstar gave us a 7 am time frame yesterday for their expected “online-unlocking” update, I cried enormous, Shingeki No Kyojin-like tears of joy. For it was almost my time to embark on an epic alternate life of crime; becoming the Michael Corleone of my time in San Andreas. My heart fluttered as the clock slowly crept towards 4 am pacific standard time. I began sweating profusely as I created my character, my new crime kingpin. But as he was spawned and I was taken to the load screen that precedes being launched into GTA Online bliss, I was met with the bane of my morning/afternoon."

Who goes outside?

[yamelmegames]

What's 'outside'?

[MeatheadMilitia]

A Magically place, much like Narnia or Tamriel or the Wasteland.

Maybe they mean this

@MeatheadMilitia

You must live in a pretty nice place. My outside magical place is a dense, dirty, polluted, corrupt, and dangerous city. Think I'll stay inside until I move to wherever you're lucky enough to live.

[iamnsuperman]

I am outside with Trevor.

[MysticStrummer]

I am inside with Trevor getting double dances.

[Jack_Of_All_Blades]

I'll stay in with Mr. Raspberry Jam

[MrDead]

I went outside once, it was terrifying!!! I had no command prompts, no tutorial, no subtitles and no text reply options when someone was trying to communicate with me.

[KillrateOmega]

Who goes outside, you ask?

Well, I don't for sure, but rumors speak of strange men and women with tanned skin who enjoy inhaling this strange gas called 'fresh air' and engaging in 'outdoor activities'.

Sound horrific...

[MeatheadMilitia]

I do not believe these people exist!

[yarbie1000]

what resolution is it out there?

[STEWIE_PLAY_PS4]

Wait We go to die!!!.

[STEWIE_PLAY_PS4]

Go to die and heaven see play online without issues

[DBLDeathDealer]

Between this and BF4, I have not seen outside all day. I wish developers could figure out how to stop these issues.

[yamelmegames]

I couldn't even take part in the BF4 beta today. I tried all the tricks (Time zone, Locale, etc). It's just been a hectic day for devs. I'm going to give it another shot tomorrow and see what happens.

[boogey157]

Glad I did not take off work.

[yamelmegames]

Loving the satire. I mean, I can't believe all the backlash that Rockstar is getting today. I understand that people want to be able to use this amazing feature, but you can't expect for a multi-billion dollar game to launch smoothly -- I can't even tell you how many people were trying to get on today. Problems are expected! We all just need to go with the flow and let Rockstar work out the technical issues. Don't worry, folks. We'll all be robbing each other in no time.

[MeatheadMilitia]

I don't understand why people are going after Rockstar, they even stated, publicly that there were going to be Day one issues.

[Aleithian]

The answer: people are stupid.

That's generally the answer to 9/10 social questions we might ask.

[maximus1985]

arsin1000 here and im iching to rob all of you....after gaining your complete trust ofcourse :)

[HolyDuck]

I've been playing since it came out, a few issues but never been forced off the game and never been stopped from connecting.

Hopefully it gets resolved soon.

Also, apparently if you're stuck on the first race with "Waiting for players" spamming A on 360 can sort it.

[MeatheadMilitia]

Seems like a lot of people are still having the issue of getting online period.

[PsylentKiller]

I can't even play solo. I get in the car and then I'm booted. They should have released the online at launch. That way they would have had 2 weeks to sort this out and I'd be playing online right now instead of typing this. Back to BF4, I guess.

[Lord_Sloth]

Saints Row.

[RedDevils]

meh

[MysticStrummer]

No thank you

[maximus1985]

yes your right it could be worse

[BOVICE47]

nah im good

[Devilbringer]

now its been over 12 hours since gta online lunched, and i still have not getting passed online loding screen, it just says Failed to Host Online Session, well well guess we'll have to wait some more!

[BriTyBriT]

Good thing I was expecting GTA Online to be broken on day 1!

[MxL_Akilleez]

I went outside once...The graphics were great, but then gameplay sucked @ss!

[BOVICE47]

there was no lag...but the missions were so repetitive

[Pintheshadows]

I always enjoy the particle effects outside. They are remarkable.

[BOVICE47]

well looks like im heading to battlefield 4 beta ^_^

[boogey157]

Bf4 it is

[Devilbringer]

went outside, it was dark and cold and no one to interact with, it was an horrific experience, i will never go to this outside place again, w8ing patiently for online to work, so i can be social again.

[Pintheshadows]

I'm just playing Civ 5. Tides me over just great.

[jino]

You guys gotta admit, the character creation system is pretty horrible. Proof that just because its Rockstar doesn't mean they do everything perfect. Characters look like drug addicts lol

[Malik4Play]

It's pretty rough. Definitely not in depth in anyway. I'd imagine customizing your characters belongings and materials is a lot more fun.

[STEWIE_PLAY_PS4]

GRA V IS DEAD then Go to die!!! Heaven can play video without no issues awesome

[Malik4Play]

Huh?...
