GTA V, worth buying now? for PC Multiplayer

[rafay22]

Hi, as the title says, I am looking for any decent multiplayer game with solid graphics and gameplay, I have played BF3 for about 4 years now and feel sick of it atm so I want a change. I want to know your reviews over GTA V Multiplayer, how deep, solid and addictive it is? Also I am not into mods...
Thanks..

GTA V is still worth buying if you have friends to play with. GTA Online is heavily featured on co-op. The heists are great, it's a pity there's only five of them; but there's a lot of replayability there. The two recent DLCs, namely Executives and Bikers, are also heavily reliant on co-op.

Don't buy it if you're going to play it with randoms. Most of them are a nightmare to play with and will ruin your fun and your day. This goes doubly in free-roam. There's a whole slew of 12 year-olds, Chinese hackers, and 12 year-old Chinese hackers in GTA Online whose version of fun is to ruin others'.

This doesn't mean that GTA Online isn't fun. With the right players (or friends) it's loads of fun. There's something to do for everyone; you can race cars, bikes, planes, helis, boats, you can go on heists, you can do missions, you can have a biker gang (Sons of Anarchy style) and operate several illegal businesses, you can be a CEO of a small organization. I have sunk about 850 hours total into it and it's worth the price. Be forewarned though, to be able to afford most of the stuff in online you'll have to grind a lot. So if grinding isn't your thing then don't get the game.

Yeah absolutely! I've been playing it for two years, almost regularly and still not sick of it. The Bi-monthly DLCs they put out help in keeping the game fresh.

Plus there are communities that do organized weekly events. Think a full lobby that does custom races, deathmatches, custom game modes, stunts, etc.. That's a lot of fun.

Alveaenerie is right, it's better if you have friends but even if you don't, you'll make some in no time. And it's also on sale right now on steam.

Thanks for the detailed response, and yes I have no friends at all to play with online...and I have already ended the singleplayer so if I buy, it will only be for Multiplayer

Yes, but I haven't played BF3 in a year. Been playing BF4 however, and I'm gonna get BF1 in November.

Hmm good, I tried BF4 but found it not as mature as bf3, eveything felt so wrong, the helis the tanks armor too weak, everything too dark....

And it's also on sale right now on steam.

Bro since its for 36$ for now instead of 60$ so should I buy it now or wait another week or so for the halloween sale for a further discounted price. Also since GTA V is for sale now maybe it wont be for sale on halloween sale....what do you think I should do...Buy now or buy later?

Bro, I think you should go for it as the lowest I've seen GTA go, was $35 during the summer sale. I don't it's going to go any lower than that during the Halloween sale. Even if it does it's not gonna be anything below $30. But like you said, it's a risk, what if it's not on sale at all?

Thats what I am scared of...since halloween is just a day or 2 away the gta V wont get a sale 2 times ... i think this will be the last discount and then only will it be in 2017 summer sale or december winter sale

Is there any difference between steam and social games version of gta V...? I have no friends what so ever..........

No difference in the game per se, but I would still say that you go for the Steam version. You say you don't have any friends to play with right now, but who is to say you won't make some as time goes by? And when you do you're going to need Steam to keep in touch with them simply because Social Club just doesn't work as a communication medium.
