    Mods are not illegal. Take-Two, the publisher, decided that modding games is apparently illegal, and served a cease & desist to the main modding tool, OpenIV.

    The game had its singleplayer modding scene originally endorsed by Rockstar, even showing off mods made with the OpenIV tool. Now Rockstar has bowed down to Take Two, turned around, and both of them collectvely said, "Actually, **** you."

    My Initial issues:

    1. I just bought this game today, also accidently purchased in-game money with it as well, and didn't relize.
    2. Took hours to download.
    3. took roughly 30 minutes to troubleshoot the game to work in "safe mode" that it showed the game worked, but didn't with just trying it normally.

    My gameplay experience:
    1. I played the GTA V not online version for about 30 minutes to learn how the game worked( i.e. controls ).
    2. I then played GTA Online for about 3 hours, during which, i met someone who drove me around in his cool fast car, i stole a car, i did a couple open world missions. I then left that person, and went to do a multiplayer mission, which it took about 15 minutes for loading and queing of players. played for about 10 minutes. mission over.
    3. found another multiplayer car mission via some invite on my in-game cell phone. that took about 15 minutes for loading and queing of players, played for about an hour. made like $77,000 or something. mission over. during this mission i experienced lots of lag and delay in car actions such as braking, or even just turning left and right. I streamed for about 20 minutes with Xsplit Gamecaster, then i stopped cause i thought I was lagging, but it wasn't cause of that program!
    4. played for about 15 more minutes, then left the game.
    5. returned 15-20 minutes and took about 20 minutes to log in to GTA Online again, and it said i was suspended and i couldn't play GTA Online for a 30 days, and i could play regular GTA V.

    Final Issues:
    1. took me an hour to find out how to get support on the rockstargames website to address the suspension.
    2. the rockstargames support doesn't allow new accounts to post threads for help, you must be a member for 30 days.
    3. rockstargames doesn't allow repeals of suspensions no matter what.
    4. rockstargames doesn't have an online chat to speak to someone live, you must call their support phone number.
    5. the support phone number for rockstargames personnel cannot do anything for you, and will only repeat the same notification you get in-game about a suspension and tell you that you cannot get a repeal of your suspension.
    6. rockstargames customer support really sucks and is pretty much non-existent. they rely on players to give other players support for their games.

    PROS:
    good open world
    I like GTA games ( maybe not anymore after this experience)

    CONS:
    1. need to load additional stuff for jobs and queing with other players... takes about 15 minutes to load one of these multiplayer jobs
    2. takes about 20 minutes to connect to GTA Online
    3. took me about 30 minutes to troubleshoot the game with the "safe mode" it provides.
    4. not compatible with Windows 10, need to run game in compatibility mode with Windows 7.
    5. automatic suspending system suspends innocent players for a minimum of 30 days.
    6. customer support number is technicial support and cant help you with anything. they repeat back the warnings you got when attempting to log into a suspended account.
    7. suspensions of even innocent suspensions are not repealable.
    8. all sales final, because by time you get the game working and decide you dont like the game, you've already played 2 hours.
    9. all in-game money that is purchased is not refundable no matter what.
    10. think you're safe cause you live in EU and can use the EU Right of Withdrawal? think again, they dont care.
    11. Steam support AND rockstargames support cant help you with your problems.
    12. you want to post a thread on rockstargames support, but your a new account? well you cant post for help for 30 days. good luck!
    13. takes hours to download this game, its 67GB.

    Not even owned this game for 12 hours, and I've experienced horrible lag, bad customer support by not only rockstargames, but also Steam in not being understanding of my situation by either unsuspending my account or providing a refund. BEWARE if you plan on purchasing this game or any rockstargame games. you will experience this at some point, i promise you.    … Expand

    Google you t2. #BringBackOpenIV and gtfo with updates only to buy more shark cards. While single player is well optimized, online is absolute garbage. No matter what pc you have it will lag and load for hours anyway.

    Garbage game, filled with microtransactions and zero single player DLC content, even after this many years after release. Now they've also went and blocked modding which was the only thing that made the single player campaign playable. The developers and publisher don't care about the people that have spent so much money on their product. They are greedy and don't care about anyone but themselves.

    Mods are illegal? Alright. Thanks for nothing T2 & R* Without us you were nothing. Most of your games would be already dead. San Andreas (SA-MP/MTA) GTA IV and GTA V. They would be all dead and forgotten.

    First you ban single player mods from access to Multiplayer, then you only ban money drops in multiplayer to boost sales of your own micro-transactions, then this! Mods are needed T2... OpenIV will not go down lightly from the community.

    MODS ARE NOW ILLEGAL IN THIS GAME

    As of the time of this writing, TakeTwo has made it ILLEGAL to add mods to the game. This cannot be allowed to stand, and as a result of them doing this my opinion of the game has plummeted. Making modding illegal is Inexcusable.

    Even if the singleplayer holds up the multiplayer is hell in virtual form, microtransaction dominate and you get ban because you internet decides not to work that day. Also TakeTwo want to make mods illegal. Guess from who you ain't getting anymore money.

Just an fyi, I never bought any shark cards, and with this (unless this gets rectified immediately) will not buy any future games of your company, Take-Two Interactive.

    (For anyone who doesn't know, Take-Two sent a cease and desist to OpenIV, the backbone for a lot of other mods, and a mod that existed since GTA3. This might be for a multitude of reason, but in combination with their recent statement that they are "undermonetizing" GTA Online (how?! Everything's virtually impossible to get without paying microtransactions!), the main theory right now is that Take-Two wants to boost GTA Online income by crippling people's SINGLE PLAYER experiences. OpenIV was strictly a single player mod. Sad.)    … Expand

    This game is a mess of micro transactions. it is an effigy of the avarice of the games industry and 2k games. 2k has launched an attack against modding on PC and the 2017 version of GTA V is greed embodied.

    They killed modding in this game. No reason to get it now. Singleplayer is boring without mods. Multiplayer is a hack-fest. They charge you expensive shark cards. Seriously, $60 for 8 million credits? You can only buy a decent car with it.

    Modders have never touched GTA Online with hacking tools, they just made your game fun. I suppose you do not want that....
    They even had some sort of "Mods do not support pirated game-copies" policy, helping you out even more.
    And you now have the audacity to just take that away? Out of the blue and whilst the E3 is all over the news. Good timing Take Two, really nicely thought through. But this won't go unnoticed.

    Take2 has seen fit to disallow modding when GTAV was previously a hospitable environment for mods. I think this behavior is not to be rewarded. This is what new releases are for.

    A game with a large modding community starts sending Cease and Desists to modders (even of single player mods) many years after release while still happily taking money for in game items/cash/"DLCs" as a protection against poor online security. This review reflects my opinion of any game/dev/publisher that would choose to take that kind of action.

    Modding communities should always be supported. Take 2 and Rockstar have profited so much off of shark cards and from the customer base in general. It's absolutely absurd to hurt the customers by removing modding potential, especially in such a late stage of the games development. Modding communities flourish in this stage and help improve the games longevity.
