Rockstar release more details about GTA ONLINE

So your GTA Online character is stored on Rockstar's servers right?

So I have the 360 version of GTA5 right now. If I picked up a copy on the PS3 and my social club account was linked to the PS3 as well, could I use the same online character across both?

I only ask because when the PS4 hits my XBox will be retired. Then I can wait for next-gen GTA or pick up the PS3 version since I'm going with PS3+PS4 for the foreseeable future.

Sound do-able?

I imagine they will but unlike the online content I'm sure you'll have to pay for any campaign DLC.

Yeah I realize that story and episode DLC will be charged as will smaller stuff, but if they add casino interior to GTA online for example! I would hope that the same Casino interior also becomes available in the single player game.

Sounds good to me, but one sure thing is that I won't invest a fucking cent more than what I paid for the game, so it's good to know they'll balance everything out.

So...hype!

I bet casino is online only. Its too ez to cheat in SP with save abuse. Makes sense why you cant go in that huge casino.

I guess this is cool. Sounds like most of the single player activities are just being ported over to 16-player multiplayer. I was hoping for something more ambitious. When I think persistent world, I think of many more long-term effects. Would be cool to have a shoot-out, destroy vehicles, buildings, deform some terrain and come back a couple of weeks later to see the clean-up still going on. Would be cool if the news radio reported on the goings-on just like single player.

Some type of phased law enforcement man-hunt would be cool too; for example stemming from the above shoot-out and constantly increasing pressure against the player.


No matter how you see it, the game will derail within minutes. A fully persistent GTA world would be a barren wasteland within an hour.

Wait, you're saying they would lock out the exploitable casino for single player where it really doesn't matter if you exploit but will have it only available for the online portion?

I was kind of planning on buying gta5sp around begin october; so i can mix and match sp and mp. Someone told me i need to play sp first as mp continues on the end of it? Tis true?

Yes...if it 'didnt matter' cheats wouldnt disable cheevos. You cant exploit save points when playing online unless the data is held locally which would be odd/easy to cheat, i really doubt theyd do that..
