"Our initial idea was to build on the concept of Story Mode heists to make a new gameplay experience for GTA 5 heists Online that was more focused on cooperation, where everyone could play to their individual strengths and feel like they had a stake in the outcome. One of the challenges is that unlike a heist in Story Mode, every player needs to feel central to the action at all times, and that’s much more challenging than it appe

In the hopes of delivering a message to Rockstar Games and Take-Two Interactive, fans of the OpenIV modding tool have amassed over 40 thousand signatures on their Change.org petition . The petition states that thousands of players have both lost the ability to mod their game and to pursue their passion for single-player modd

It's been more than a year since Grand Theft Auto V and GTA Online released, yet the highly requested implementation of online heists are still missing from the game. Over the year we've gone from hearing next to nothing about it; being told it's coming soon, then learning it'll come in an update after the current-gen versions release. Contrary to the hopes of a late December release due to a rumor of the content's date , however, eager GTA Online players will have to wait until 2015 for the online heists. Specifically, 'early 2015.' The teasing (and lengthy waiting) contin

"We know that our unaided awareness for Ghosts is leading the way against other unreleased triple-A titles. Our digital content has proven extremely popular and Black Ops II has sold more than 3m units in the

Almost seven months in since Nintendo released its newest console, and it seems that it was able to maintain clamor for the device by delivering what they have always promised the device to be -- a gaming platform that can be used at any given time and place. The Japanese conglomerate has also alleviated any doubts on the possible shortage of content as games, both big budgeted, as well as, indie ones , continue to be available on Switch and GTA5 could potentially be one of them really s

The popular franchise has proven a suitable playground for modification, most notably by JulioNIB , who put Hulk and Spider-Man in GTA IV a few years back. And now, the modder has created an impressive and authentic Iron Man mod for GTA V that proves why the hero is so fit for the gaming screen. Check out the video ab

With regards to what's next for GTA V and GTA Online , Sarwar stated that the goal now is to release the heists and see what people think of them. If there's one thing the GTA community won't fall behind one, it's letting Rockstar hear their opinions. So expect those heists to be blown wide open when they debut next year, and patched/balanced shortly afterwa

That said, there's hardly much to complain about in Julio's mod; and if you keep watching, you'll even see Iron Man perform an elbow drop into a tank and swat a flying helicopter to the ground. The destruction factor is fun, entertaining, and spectacular, but it provides only a tease of what the character is capable of in terms of story and developm

Player customization isn't a huge focus in GTA V . Those hoping for a return of the customization found in San Andreas may be disappointed, as GTA V will not feature the ability to change the physical features of the main characters but players will still be able to choose from several clothing types.

"After many months of designing, testing, rewriting and re-testing, we settled on the four-player structure that you will experience in the game. It took a ton of work from our programmers and mission designers to make it work at the level we were happy wi

At launch, there will be five separate heists, comprised of at least 20 missions. Heists will, of course, be replayable, allowing players to try out the different roles and maybe, just maybe, understand what it's like to be the getaway dri

And while it seems that OpenIV modders encouraged the team to fight, and may have been lumped into the sum of modding tools that alter the game's code, the team behind OpenIV recognized the futility in entering a legal battle with the publishing ti

Grand Theft Auto has long been a series that allowed users to express their creativity in the form of mods for the series's single-player mode. Recently, the author of the popular modding tool OpenIV received a cease and desist letter from publisher Take-Two Interactive. The creators of other modding tools, such as " Menyoo " and " Force Hax, " have received similar letters, however these modding tools were being used specifically to influence Grand Theft Auto V 's multiplayer mode. In response to the modding purge, fans of OpenIV have taken to Steam , Google , and Change.org to voice their frustrat

On Steam, recent user reviews indicate an "overwhelmingly Negative" ranking for the game, as well as "mixed" reviews overall. Only 14 % of the 35,960 user reviews in the past 30 days have been posit
