Grand Theft Auto Online almost here
The long awaited ambitious online multiplayer mode of Grand Theft Auto will go live sometime today on both PlayStation Network and Xbox Live announced by Rockstar on its website.
Players should expect to receive small downloadable title update for the game for about 7 a.m. ET and 4 a.m. PT today. Once the patch is downloaded and installed, player can access GTA Online in Grand Theft Auto V menu. Here's what Rockstars says:
Access to Grand Theft Auto Online is free with your copy of Grand Theft Auto V. On October 1st there will be a small downloadable Title Update released on PlayStation Network and Xbox LIVE. Upon installation of that Title Update, direct access to begin GTA Online will be unlocked in your GTAV game menu. You will be able to jump right into GTA Online via the 4th (bottom) slot in your GTAV character wheel. We’ve received many questions asking for a specific confirmation of what exact time GTA Online will be available but of course this is contingent on both Title Updates becoming available on each console’s network. As a general timeframe, we do expect the Title Update to become available on PSN and Xbox LIVE starting around 7AM ET tomorrow morning, and your best bet is to stay tuned throughout the day here at the Rockstar Newswire and by following us on Twitter and Facebook where we will be keeping everyone updated.When the GTA Online goes live, Rockstar warned all the players that the servers may not be able to handle the extreme amount of traffic that the game will create. The estimated players to be log on to GTA Online is about two million players within first 24 hours. So don't expect that the online mode will run smooth and stable.
Rockstar also detailed the GTA Online microtransactions to reassure to players it wont be pay-to-win.
"To allay some concerns we’ve heard on this subject, we can assure you that the game is designed such that the option of purchasable GTA$ should not disrupt the playing field – and there are a few mechanics in place to help ensure that. All players still have to rank up with Reputation Points (RP) in order to get access to purchase high-end items. No one can begin GTA Online and simply spend a lot of money out of the gate to get a leg up. You will have to earn your stripes and play to unlock access to the aspirational clothes, guns and other items."I know you are excited for the launch of GTA Online. I'm sure by now you are craving to play and you have plans on what to do when its up and running.
