GRAND THEFT AUTO V LOWRIDERS HIT 20 OCTOBER

[Hiro]

Your custom cars show as markers on the map and get impounded if you leave them too long. Simply pay to retrieve them.

You can pay a personal mechanic to fix your cars automatically, or deliver them to any location.

Winning the race nets a modest $80, logging your times to the Social Club and boosting your RP.

well shit, money is important in this game

[Hiro]

The long-term aim, as we understand it, is a vibrant self-sustaining community like LBP, but initially the tools will be more limited - like the mission creator in Infamous 2. You'll only be able to make races and death matches at the start, but multi-stage DIY heists should appear at some stage.

that's what I was thinking 

[Hiro]

If you get killed holding all your cash, a portion will spill onto the streets.

oh thank goodness

[Hiro]

Leslie Benzies claims that Los Santos is only the beginning. The volume of creator tools, missions and items will grow, but at some stage GTA Online will head into new locations. He suggested they were sitting on a lot of content, and it doesn't take a genius to speculate what it might be.

oh my gawd

Rofl I wonder how much GTA Online will end up costing if you don't get the season pass

i wonder if they're doing online passes even, but I can't imagine it would cost that much extra

You can also insure cars now, so that - if someone steals it, or blows it up - you can get that same car back for a premium. You can also leave your cars somewhere in the world, and come back to that place and they're still there...

We don't let anyone steal your personal vehicle. If we were in a personal vehicle, and I jumped out as the owner, you could take it. But if it's locked, it's locked. You could blow it up, if you're that way (inclined), but anything that's going to annoy other players, we will punish by giving you what we call a Bad Sport stat. We store how you behave in there. If you're too bad, you will be punished.

Can other players see when someone has a Bad Sport stat?

Yeah. They'll be able to check it out, and think "I'm not playing with that guy."

So going back to the vehicles - are you almost more encouraged to buy them than to steal them?

You can buy cars, just like you can (in the real world). Or you can steal them if the mod shops are prepared to dabble with them. If they are, you can spray them and change the plates. If they're not prepared to do that, when the cops spot you in a stolen car, you'll get a Wanted level.

Is that why you'd want to employ the $50-a-day man to mod your stolen cars?

He won't deal with stolen cars. All he does is repair busted-up vehicles, and deliver your car. So, if you're out in the countryside without transport, you can give him a phone and he'll come out and drop the car off for you.

well, i mean all this content that will be added on as gta online grows and expands.  it just seems like it's built around multiplayer-centric dlc like unchart3d to maximise revenue streams

[Hiro]

there probably will be a good amount of dlc to buy, but they also seem to  be emphasizing user-generated content
i'm also guessing that things like new maps and stuff with either be included with new GTA games, or will be released rarely enough that buying them would be considered like buying a new game

[YPrrrr]

Can't wait to buy some sweet LoL skins with all the RP I earn

One line in Rockstar's official description of their GTA Online trailer led some readers to speculate that GTAO would be tied to an online pass: "Access to Grand Theft Auto Online is free with every retail copy of Grand Theft Auto V and launches on October 1st." Not so, a Rockstar spokseperson told Kotaku. There is no online pass or code required for activating GTAO. Just buy GTA V and it'll become available via GTA V's character wheel (the fourth of four slots) on the first of October.

There you have it, David
