But then everything will change, when the modders attack

MegaRay3744d ago

Only the RockStar can stop them, but when the world need them most they vanished!

ATiElite3744d ago

I expect to playing a modded PC version with 100 or more. GTA Modders are GENIUS Level type of people.

San Andreas PC Online mod had like 64
GTAIV PC has 100 or more (depending on mod and server)

Just Cause 2 2000 player MP mod is CRAZY fun, so fun Square enix released it as a supported Mode.

Therefore after some modders get GTAO PC running nicely with a higher player count I expect Rockstar to follow suit.

BanginBiscuitz3744d ago

I love how we are getting rumors of features in the game that we have rumors about coming out lol. Just give this a rest guys.

Ricegum3744d ago

I was going to say it hasn't even been announced has it, nor have Rockstar even hinted at an announcement. It'd be pretty amusing if it never comes out for PC, there'd be so much disappointment.

BitbyDeath3744d ago (Edited 3744d ago )

After all the money Rockstar got from consoles sales they will probably never port it onto PC/nextgen consoles. Jackpot won't happen twice with the same game so no need to waste the dev time.

SaturdayNightBeaver3744d ago

maybe , fine point.. but i really doubt those devs will let their best selling game stay 720p 20 fps and stuff...

mkis0073744d ago

Really wouldn't be much Dev time involved as their engine should be scalable now. Im happy with my ps3 copy, but i wouldn't mind a ps4 or pc copy.

moujahed3744d ago

Very poor reasoning seeing as how the PC version would be a stepping stone for the Next Gen console version of the game.

Plagasx3744d ago

It was the same thing for GTA IV on PC so this isn't surprising.

Mr_Writer853744d ago (Edited 3744d ago )

If this is coming out in March surely there would be an announcement by now? They announced they console version over a year before release.

How long before release was GTA4 announced for PC?

Just looked up myself PC version of 4 was announced in Aug for a Nov release.

March doesnt look likley

pompombrum3744d ago

*sob sob* it's like finding out there is no Santa Claus :(

IG-883744d ago

No Santa!? Then how do I get presents on Christmas then?

I wonder if the problems that they had whit the people that where giving out money online made them stop working on the PC version until they fixed the problem.

Plagasx3744d ago

No one ever knows when Rockstar will announce something. It just happens..

They could surprise us all with an announcement a month before release.

Mr_Writer853744d ago

When have they ever announced a game weeks before it's out?

I'm not saying its not coming but I can't see them announcing it just before release.

They don't seem to have done this before so why start now?

I hope there is a PC version for two reasons 1) Because everyone should get to play this game 2) I want a PS4 version.

Arty843744d ago

same day reveal and release make the internet go BOom!

SaturdayNightBeaver3744d ago

they will announce for march maybe, then delay it .. cause thats cool these days. delay games lol

LennyLovespuds3744d ago

I'm going to assume Rockstar are not eager to open up the world of modding to the PC when even the console versions are having such problems with exploits.

R* want dem micro transactions, dawg.

Thar she blows! That be a whale!! Let's talk to them mateys!

phoenixwing35d ago

@disagrees
Didn't have a good rebuttal did you? We all know the select players are whales who waste thousands or hundreds of thousands on the games currency. You expect them to make the same kinds of demands as everyone else? Keep dreaming.

Inverno34d ago

Well that and most likely streamers who have helped harpoon all those whales lolz.

Why is this news? Is this supposed to be some sort of heads up to those involved?

Kombatologist41d ago

Why shouldn't this be news? If you play the game at all, you'd know this has been a problem for a while. Tell me, how is it fair for legit low-level players to be grieved by players using modded accounts with disposable amounts of cash? It's about time Rockstar did something about these losers.

BISHOP-BRASIL41d ago (Edited 41d ago )

Not that I really played it in forever, but the way I used to roll on online once I realize I had no interest in actually doing heists and micromanaging property and shit, the moment someone decided to pick a fight I'd just leave towards north, jump the fence of the army base, steal a jet and grief away... Pro tip: they can't really make you pay for other players cars when you have not one single penny to your name.

EDIT: Got carried away... Anyway, my point was, you can grief without money, this is not stopping it.

Kombatologist40d ago

@BISHOP-BRASIL

I get what you're trying to say, but it's a false equivalence. Anyone could jump the fence and grab a jet back in the day. The dynamic changed once R* started introducing militarized vehicles, such as flying motorcycles with homing rockets, a stealth helicopter, and most recently, a stealth jet. There's so many militarized vehicles now, you really have to keep up with the latest and greatest in order to defend yourself from that shit, which is really expensive to do. Sure, you could make the argument that Shark Cards give players the same advantage as a modded account. The thing is, they don't. Not even close. A modded account can have ANY amount of money, as well as ANY weapon and/or vehicle, even ones that aren't available in the game yet (as long as they're in the datafiles). Some of them even have glitched characters with invisible limbs/weapons. This is an unfair advantage to anyone who plays legitimately and nobody should have to risk getting their accounts permanently banned from stooping to the same level just to compete. Furthermore, making money is really easy to do now. Which begs the question: Why buy a modded account in the first place? I think the answer is obvious.

So this is news because a Twitter guy says so :)
