There's really only one reason for Rockstar to release Grand Theft Auto 6 later on PC - eviltoast

      On PC, cheaters are the problem. They never fixed online gameplay or stopped cheaters on PC. I join a server only to be immediately killed or hunted mercilessly by some asshole who thinks it’s fun to ruin other people’s games.

          The bit they said about being instantly killed and hunted wasn’t true even before the Battleye update.

          There are still modders on the game after the Battleye update but there is significantly fewer.

          Sure you get ass holes in game, but you get ass holes in everything in life.

        There are ass holes every where trying to ruin the fun for everything in life.

        There is now Battleye in GTA online, which has significantly reduced the number of modders, but it requires you to be comfortable with a kernel level anti cheat running on your system.

      Online is unplayable for the reasons posted but I’m more pissed they scuttled the single player DLC to focus on online instead.

      Cheating, every lobby has several of them and you’ll play for a few minutes only to be teleported somewhere and killed, or run into a guy with god mode turned on.

        That’s not true for every public lobby. You can play online by yourself, or just your friends if you don’t want to be in a public lobby. And some modders are quite funny with it.

        I’m speaking from a place where I currently have ~4000 hours on the game. Only 100-200 of them is in story mode.

        There is now Battleye, which has significantly reduced the number of modders, but it requires you to be comfortable with a kernel level anti cheat running on your system.

          Well battleeye… and Rockstar says “fck ya Linux community” + they lied about the reasons + anti cheat was more or less instant broken
