[Tawpgun]

Wow, so in order to play a deathmatch or a team deathmatch, you have to play with the people in your world? Meaning if no one wants to play, you can't play? That sucks.

Wait really? I loved the idea of a big overworld as a free roam fun game lobby... but if there's no way to search for matches like that on your own that is duuuuumb

 

[Spinluck]

Damn, this is pretty bad. Worse than I thought it'd be.

 

[akaoni]

That would be the PC version.

Aye, auto-aim was a lobby variable on the PC version. So dumb having the game headshotting people in cars for you.

Asking for a friend:

Anybody know if there is a way to launch directly into the online mode, instead of launching into offline and then switching to online mode from the game?

 

[Feorax]

I've just restarted whilst signed out of PSN. If this doesn't work, it looks like I'm stuck playing as Michael until the servers go back up.

Press X/A whilst the game is booting, during the slideshow.

Might delete the multiplayer patch from my PS3 until they fix the issues it has had on the single player mode. Problem is, I have saved (overwritten) my save game since installing the update... will it still load ok if I delete the update I wonder?

Wait. What's up with singleplayer? I haven't been logged into Live while playing GTAV for the last few days. Should I hold off?

Hello GAF:

Press 'x' when you first run the game (during loading screen), however failing to connect means getting booted to the SP over and over.

 

[Tankshell]

anyone feel singleplayer being glitchy due to the patch?

Yep, I can't activate the character wheel.

Yep, same. Also as I mentioned previously, it has fucked the mission progress app (top right) on the mobile phone in single player. Just shows "Jobs" screen now, so no way to check which missions I currently have active.

 

[mil6es]

any spaces in a 360 club free?

 

[HawksWinStanley]

Is GAF running on R* servers too?

 

[Norns]

Is GAF running on R* servers too?

Dammit, I was about to make this same joke.

 

[anddo0]

I'm convinced this is a Sony/R* issue.

Everyone I know with a 360 seems to be playing online.

Is GAF running on R* servers too?

Seems that way.

 

[ViviOggi]

Thanks Obama

 

[digoutyoursoul]

When I go to a Team Deathmatch spot it launches as a Deathmatch all the time, anyone else notice this?

 

[painey]

I want to be in the GAF crew but my request is just sitting there, unanswered. Did anyone create a new 360 GAF crew to join?

 

[MXRider]

So when I select the 4th character from the wheel my screen goes black and nothing happens. I'm on a 360. What do I do? I deleted update and reinstalled and same thing.

I'm on 360 and I'm just looking at a black screen

Same problem, glad that it's not my 360 or anything.

where?

All I see is the DLC.
The patch data is nowhere to be found.

 

[Live Free or Die]

Is GAF running on R* servers too?

I think so.

 

[malfcn]

I'm on 360 and I'm just looking at a black screen

That's what I am getting too.

 

[Gorillaz]

Dann these servers have been nuked into orbit. Might actually take a few days to work after all.

Or a week

 

[Desaan]

I haven't gotten the PS3 one to work at all and the characters never save.

BRB in 2 weeks.

 

[BobTheFork]

After knowing for weeks that the servers would be bombed and stressed to the limit, I am shocked and upset that the servers are stressed to the limit and not working.

Besides everyone, who the hell could have seen this coming?

 

[Lashley]

Hello GAF:

Aston Kutcher is that you?

 

[H1PSTER]

Is anybody else getting a "failed" message when they try to play a game?

It doesn't matter if I try it solo or with somebody else as soon as the mission starts I get a "failed" message.

GG.

 

[Kajiba]

Made my character and everything. Wanted to do the race mission that was after but it never started. I just drove around a bit and gave up.

I'll come back to this when everything is together a little bit online. Shit is just to janky right now.

 

[friskykillface]

I actually got in and chose a random character profile and started with 4K and 9K in my bank lol

0_o


and wowwwwwww smh if you can only play deathmatch/races with the people in youe game. setting up matches is just awful since no would respond/ignore.

 

[Heimbeck]

That's what I am getting too.

I managed to make a character but he doesn't show up on the wheel, strange.

 

[Raxious]

It's ridiculous though how the 360 version has been up for 6 hours, and the PS3 version has been down for 6 hours.

 

[kris.]

Looks like I'll be waiting two more weeks so they

Spoiler

hopefully

work out the kinks.

 

[cleveridea]

<Trevor>Conspiracy theory: GTA Online works 100% shortly before COD launches </Trevor>

 

[SirMossyBloke]

So finally got in an hour ago. Did the first race and came 3rd. It went straight to a second mission but everyone bailed.

Then I had to go to work

However I will say when it works it works well. No lag or people jumping about. When it's sorted it should be a joy.

im 360 and i cant even get on

dat gold $$$$

 

[Heimbeck]

If anyone is getting a black screen someone told me it might work if you try going through the pause menu instead of the wheel.

 

[Lashley]

can only use a temp character n cant save

 

[keltickennedy]

Got to play a bit this morning around 6am before work. Liked what I played so far. It's way more in depth than I thought it was going to be. 6 -7pm prime time tonight there is probably going to be no chance to get on.

 

[Amagon]

My PS3 goes into a black screen and freezes when I try to update the patch. First time this ever happens to my system.

:/

 

[malfcn]

Friends section is down.
Went to Gallery and got a TOS&Policy update.

Assuming ONline works, how many characters can we create?

 

[Tempy]

Is GAF running on R* servers too?

Actually, I think it's R* running on GAF servers.

 

[malfcn]

ALERT: The Rockstar cloud servers are unavailable right now. Please try again later.

 

[Lashley]

isnt working for me at all, shame

 

[friskykillface]

so if you actually get some people to race,someone can just drive there and kill everyone. wow

i was ready to shelve gta iv but i wont have to if its like that.

 

[Gaz_RB]

Fuck guys this is awesome

It's locked to two right now.

character creator sucks anyway.

 

[DRE Fei]

The first mission after the tutorial won't even load properly. I get to the car and the game just freezes.

This online is a joke right now.

 

[Enjay]

After all the Peter Molyneux like information released about GTA Online I can honestly say that actually playing it has been disappointing in every conceivable way imaginable.
