Experience with Rockstar Support and Feedback

" ...things about the game that are annoying, sketchy or pretty much broken"

That sure is a nice way to put it!!

There are so many bugs in this game it's pathetic and really detracts from the immersive effect the game was designed to have. But there are also intentional "gotcha's" that they put in that really get on my nerves, too.

NPC drivers for example. You are a magnet to them when you drive, especially as you go faster. I've see trucks spawn in front of me then magically slide/strafe to the side and get in front of me as I try to swerve to miss it. I've been driving cars and hit mysterious walls/objects that send them flying uncontrollably. Ever been spawn-camped by an NPC heli with deadly aim? Ever notice while selling bunkers with the phantom wedge, the NPCs aim for the side of the trailer to pitch it sideways and disconnect it? Seriously, some times just fxck this stupid game!

But you're right, it is the only one with the world and variety and until someone else comes up with a comparable experience I will keep playing.

The game engine is far from great (which you didn't say but you implied it  ). It works for sure and that's the bottom line.

But between (takes a deep breath) draw errors, clipping, physics of moving objects, the way menus often don't show up, settings keep mysteriously changing, players that are on the map or you interact with in-game are not on the player list, player blips not showing height on them any more except very few cases where it's not needed anyway, (takes another deep breath) player levels glitching on the 2nd page to show the levels from the first page, races not locking the car you select and instead choosing the one you used last, personal times completely FUBAR'd and the dozens of other oddities that you see in-game, it's hardly a good engine. Sufficient is a stretch, too.

Then you throw in Rockstar's incessant need to cater to griefers and how they seemingly willingly DESTROY awesome cars with stupid shit like weapons and handling flags, it really makes the game un-enjoyable at times. People on their suggestion page told them to nerf the MkII so they buffed it instead.  Really? :twak: Thanks for letting us know where we stand in your eye, Rockstar!

I could go on and on and on and on and on but I really need to stop here before I get banned. Suffice it to say (again), if and when a different company comes up with something even remotely close to GTA I'm outta here!

Oh yeah. It's a lazy way to make a game more "difficult"

I've almost completely stopped sourcing cars. Now I just steal them from other CEO's that are sourcing them and when I sell in solo public lobbies I stop and get out just before it triggers the AI and deal with the 4 waves while away from the I/E car.
