    Been getting back into this and just getting round to the heists.

    tbh it's the only game remotely holding my attention span.

    When I try and play heists I get paired with randoms that fail all the time. Haven't managed to complete one yet

    Starting to think 4's online was better. In 4 everyone was usually at the airport at the same time so there was lots of interaction, in 5 everyone is spread out over the map

    when I click to go on a single race it takes about 10 mins of waiting,heists pop up all the time but then once you join some * leaves and you fail the mission

    There were usually big gatherings at the airport in V sessions when I used to play online, not been on for a good while though.

    A perfect example for EA and Rockstar to take noteon regarding online servers is to follow the game Rocket league, the minute you click online you are asked what region suits you and then places you into an easy running server with no problems at all....

    GTA and FIFA are utter gash at this, playing in a cup tournament in fifa and then you get to the final only to play a guy from * Pluto and the lag is * and you loose the game....or with GTA just constant cloud crashes

    Find it ironic that in a game called Grand Theft Auto online you have to buy your cars :smiley-laughing002:

    I've gave up on the heists, no one wants to join and even after waiting 20 mins to get 4 players some * quits or something.

    Been in my bed the past 3 days dying wih tonsillitis and finally mustered up the energy to set this up on PS3 in my room.

    Never bothered playing it before for some reason. I'm more of an all out Fifa type of 'gamer' :smiley-laughing002:

    Is this worth it or should I crack out the Burnout Paradise? Or just another Fifa Career mode :icon_mrgreen:

    The Story mode is worth playing, you need a lot of patience for GTA Online though

    I know a few people who play online. I hadn't played online since before xmas, but went on recently and couldn't get into it. They've changed it to much. Can't even get a proper race now

    Rockstar doesn't have a clue when it comes to GTA Online, there should be a filter where fan made missions/races/etc.. aren't included when searching for a game mode to play
