2-0-Sixx @2-0-Sixx seems like it would be a bit chaotic? Is there like a cap on the amount of people running around? Or is there just thousands of people in one area ?

and what stops ppl from trolling and just attempting to kill people for no reason? Sounds like there's gonna be a good amount of trolling going on online

I know I'm definitely stupid like that, I'll be shooting people running with me, just to be cold about it, so if I do start playing this and sicc cats are running with me, just know I may smoke you for breathing too hard

Yeah there is a cap. It's really not very chaotic.

Basically you create a character then try to make money. With money you can buy clothes, mod cars, buy houses, property and weapons, just like in single player.

You make money by doing missions (guys like Lester, Trevor, etc will hit you up for missions you can do by yourself or with your friends). If you're part of a crew, you can at any time play missions, races, jobs, etc and make money).

There is also free roam where you can run around and do whatever like rob liquor stores, 711, evade the police, etc.

Online also gives you a choice to join servers your friends or crew members are in as well as 10-13 random people just fuckin around. It's limited to 16 players per server so it's not TOO crazy. gta 4 multiplayer just felt like a free for all outside of cops and robbers but gta v has a different vibe to it.
Not everyone is shooting to kill. Majority of free roam maps I've been to, randoms aren't always trying to kill everybody they're doing their own missions and making money.
There's also a "passive" mode you can enable where others can;t kill you and you can;t kill them. That's if you want the luxury of roaming around outside of Solo session, making money without the worry of others taking you out.

Word. Additionally there is "Good Sport" reputation points, so in theory if you are just an asshole and run around killing people in free roam, their reputation goes down so eventually when they go online they will join other assholes with bad reputation.

So far my GTA5 online experience is way more about team work then anything else. It's about making money as a group.

Plus is just fun. Ive had hella funny ass shit happen with sicc crew members that cracks me up.

Yeah everytime I rob a store with a friend or crew member I split the take 50/50 (hOLD THE SELECT BUTTON>INVENTORY>CASH>Share cash and pick a name and value. Make sure it's the guy you worked with lol.

Last store I robbed with someone was Mr G on Saturday. I just let him take the money. Not sure if he shared any but it didn't matter to me (THANKS IF YOU DID) I was just trying to be generous. I just wanted to pull licks!! lol We got 3 stars because the cashier pulle dout a gun and we had to waste him. Evading pigs is harder online

When I get back on, soon as I feel safe about it, anyone who does anything with me and there's profit expect half the cut or more.

rockstar got a lot of issues to fix with this.
one issue i frequently saw was kicking people out of a session during a mission.
but once everything is stable i will be back and better than ever!
yeah last toime i was on i was right at finish line about to win 1st place in a car race and that shit kicked me out i was mad bc it took some skills for me to flip niggas cars to be first place
