Christ GTA Online is a fucking nightmare. The Prison Heist still gives me nightmares. Who the fuck thought one person dying and the whole mission restarting was a good fucking idea?

You should see his review for Halo Wars then (there's a brief moment where someone else starts reviews a different game as part of a crossover but then it gets to Yahtzee).EndlessSporadic said:
Y'know, the Xbox 360 and PS3 community for GTA seems pretty balanced. Half the time you are making friends with random players hoping they don't utterly destroy you, the other half you spend getting utterly destroyed because you hoped that this player in particular, may in fact be friendly.
Not a fucking chance. On the PC version, everyone is trying to have quick draw rocket launcher contests all over the map and actually finding a sane person in the cesspool of racism and hatred is like trying to find a copy of fire emblem awakening when it first came out...(Yeah not funny)

I figured that GTA Online would attract the same crowd that plays Call of Duty solely for the multiplayer. The more I look, it still holds true that the only online game that has relaxed people playing it is Guild Wars, largely because only 50 some people are in the game at any given point...
And his perfect description of the prison break heist. Random asshole clips wing, sucks for you!RiseOfTheWhiteWolf said:
It is awesome with friends. But that's the catch. You need a reliable crew that's online when you are. Otherwise you may as well play the single player.Johnny Novgorod said:
I do agree that statistics in multiplayer games attracts Twats/Twattish behaviour in non Twats.
The question we all need to ask is, why?
We play games to unwind/think/creativity/change of activity.
Why do we care that we're slightly better at the game than another person? Why do anyone else care? This has little worth.
It only matters if you seriously consider becoming a professional player. If you do, I wish you well because that seems a very competitive career (lol I made a joke) because being paid to play a game you like to play appeals to many.

I played GTA Online back when I was unemployed. I'd go into a heist lobby, set it up, then go do something productive for an hour while I waited for the lobby to get four people. Now that I have a full-time job, I'm not gonna waste my 2-3 hours of free time playing online when 75% of that will be spent waiting in lobbies.
Also, the last time I played the Prison Heist one of our teammates died at the very end of the mission, when you're parachuting onto the beach. Twice
Sometimes I feel like Rockstar does't have playtesters because their games are full of so much frustrating bullshit.

Crossy Road is boss! It's like crack cocaine to me. Unfortunately my experience of GTA Online was me being stalked through the map by a couple of much higher ranked players, like some shitty version of The Running Man. That was enough for me.
This is kind of like my experience with watch_doges, it's only multiplayer to fuck with you, so I turned off the multiplayer and went back to stopping crimes, and playing poker.
The whole "race with two people" thing reminds me of people how used to play Guitar Hero 3 Online by doing a best of 1 song challenge on normal where they had played the song so many times they could do it in their sleep, so you'd both finish with 100%, but he'd used his star power more efficiently because you were saving it for what used to be areas with a lot of notes to boost your score, but those spots didn't have a lot of notes anymore because you were playing FUCKING NORMAL DIFFICULTY ONLINE.
On my PC, I usually disconnect the ethernet cord unless the game won't properly load my save files unless I'm online, but that's mostly because my house has an obscenely low data cap.themutantlizard said:
