[RUMOUR] GTA Single player DLC has been replaced with online map expansions model.
- Thread starter mocoworm
- Start date
Casuals. I have spotted two, maybe three times, people playing Online in RL during trips and visits.
I assume it's transcended into a sort of hang-out for these people. Destiny is actually not far off, either, so perhaps it's partly to do with the jack-of-all-trades these games can give. (Competitive, co-op, racing, mini-games etc)

We are going to be mindfucked at how gorgeous it will look. Hopefully by 2020 we'll be ready for it.
Dreamfall, be honest, you're hyped for Liberty City GTA Online DLC!

Planning major DLC for October 2018? For a game that will be five years old at that point? Dang.

I don't understand how Rockstar got people to buy those crappy Shark Cards. Well I suppose I don't because I played before they made the game so tedious to collect money on your own. It's why I stopped playing even. I'm still filthy rich in the game, but what are people even needing money for outside of expensive cars and the suites?
Recently I played the game to put a bounty on someone, but that seem to be removed, I instead hired NPCs to kill someone. It wasn't as satisfying because it just seemed like the guy killed himself and the hired contractor took the credit. I wish I could rain millions from my tower and watch people kill each other over it. I'll try again, it's probably moved in the menu.

Yeah, I don't believe it.

It's clearly bullshit, but people should be getting out any hope for single player DLC right now, if it still expected by anyone.

I like GTA Online, I have put a lot of hours into just messing about but have never once even considered paying real money for game cash. Can't believe people spend so much!
As for this leak, forgetting about the loss of single player content and just taking this possible content for what it is, I must admit I'm excited to try the new areas... If it's true.

I play GTA online still with friends, I'd buy expansions for sure. I don't get all the 'it's trash' comments, it's not perfect by any means but it can be great.
Ya no chance that's happening anymore. Was originally planned but due to success of GTAO.........

Even if the leak isn't true, they definitely don't have plans for single player DLC anymore. Which is a damn shame, they could have potentially fixed the mess of a story that GTAV had.

Do you think they only plan 6 months in advance? Not saying this is true, but they could easily be planning for so far ahead. Especially because of how successful it has been.

By 2020 it's very possible the Playstation 5(?) will be a year old (going on possible 3-year release schedule) and the successor to the Scorpio might be coming out at that time. That's 7ish years since GTA 5 and would mean they would possibly skip this generation of systems completely.
What a monumental disappointment this would be for me (and others) if this is the route they decide to go down. I've tried to get into GTA online, but that whole infrastructure seems like it's held together by duct tape and constantly seems on the verge of breaking/being held in seemingly never ending loading screens. It's not my thing and surprisingly no one on my friends list has touched it in years, it seems.
With the absolutely massive success of GTA, I find it hard to believe they'd be content on not working on a successor that will undoubtedly be another massive, gargantuan success.
I personally find it hard to believe they aren't already a few years deep into development on the next GTA.

And this is the bit that kills me. I do get that, yes, incentives and all that, but the constant "1000000$$ RP" shit that comes up and is super popular sort of kills my hope for the game because the player base by nature are greedy little assholes.
The fact that there are players who have to question joining in on a popular race because "Is the payout good tho??" over "Is this fun?" elicits all manner of sickness in me.

My biggest issue with GTAO is the load times...if they weren't so epically long, I'd probably play it a lot more than I already have.
Good thing - if this turns out to be true - is that I expect these maps to be available in SP within a week via modding.
The hunting DLC sounds cool though, I kinda enjoyed the SP hunting missions.
I gave up hope for a story DLC a while ago. GTA:O is a pretty bland experience, especially if you don't have atleast four regulars who play with you and I haven't spent a dime on their virtual currency and won't.
It's fun for two hours with my bro every weekend or so, however.
E: Seems this guy has a fake track record. Give me my hunting activities regardless!

What are North helping with on Read Dead? The online part?
Basically. Tried it when it came out and it was fucking garbage. No idea how people are still playing it.

I know they don't owe anyone.
But as someone who enjoys gta online. (I play with my wife and some friends it is actually a lot of fun that way boring as shit by yourself though.)
They really kinda need to release gta single player expansions or something, I feel like that's kinda whats made gta popular, and making the online money.

Cool, my friends and I appreciate it. The SP story was enough, if I want to have fun in GTA I much prefer to fuck around with some friends in MP.

No idea but per a gaffer, they said they were taken off of GTAO finally to work on a new project. This was last month and as such obviously before RDR2 reveal.
More cars, expensive car upgrades, more apartments/ warehouses/ suites, expensive apts upgrades, expensive motorbikes, expensive upgrades for your bikes, expensive yachts, expensive upgrades for your yatch, expensive helicopters, expensive planes, expensive boats, expensive weapons, expensive ammo, expensive clubhouses (to start a motorcycle club), expensive clothes, and so on..

GTA Online was mistake, it's nothing but trash.

It's where the money is.
I have zero interest in online, so it bums me out.

I'm excited as long as it get a PS4 Pro boost.
Also, this thread just reminds me of this thread with pictures like this:
Something something PS4/Xbox One would melt if this was true.

Expansions are more important to you than the base game, of which there is more than your money's worth already?

ME! I love GTAO, it's such a blast to just hop in and fuck around with my friends. There's a ton of stuff to do and the sandbox really lets you just cut loose with pretty much whatever you want
