Nothing much, gives you a higher rank in the crew and you can recruit people (looks like you can do that already as Muscle?). The Hierarchy is just for show really so anyone who has interest in Online can be a REP.

Been watching videos etc on this GTA Online and I have to say, I just dont get the fuss over it.

Can anyone on here explain what exactly is different to GTA Online and that of the online in Red Dead or even GTA IV?

From what I have read, it can only hold 16 players and I assume that each time you log in you will be randomly put into a world of 16 random players?

Couldnt you do all this in red dead? If you wanted to play a deathmatch you would would load out of the "free roam" and into that death match?

I believe there is no difference between rdronline and gtaonline minus the 500 plus missions, the constantly updated content, the creation tool that will allow us to make our own missions, the future ability of making our own stories, the fact it's present day, the humor and bants that GTA games bring, the size of the map, the options of social activities from golf, tennis and base jumping and more.

The potential idea that rockstar has been pushing of linking liberty city and other gta cities to create a GTA world.
Besides all that I believe they have the same core basics, but I'm quiet happy to immerse myself within the GTAonline world.

Also it's not 16 random players, it's customizable apparently. First it will try to find games your friends are in, then it will try to find your crew members, then skill level, so as you can see, it's anything but random.

If still think it's the same that's fine, but at least wait for the reviews and you'll understand why it will be awesome

Lol thanks for the replies plus the gifs

Going to pull a few points from this if you dont mind so I can get a clearer idea of what they are trying to implement.

the 500 plus missions - Sounds great IF the missions arent all the equivalent of go to this point and shoot 30 guys ( as it was for some game types in Red Dead.

the constantly updated content - Again sounds interesting but cant really speculate on what hasnt been announced.

the creation tool that will allow us to make our own missions - No interest in this as I have a feeling it will be spawn point A location Z type stuff.

the future ability of making our own stories - Again, not to sure what to expect from the community on this

the fact it's present day - What?,

the humor and bants that GTA games bring - Again this is a bit frivilous. You can have humour and banter in plenty of games.

The size of the map - Meh Read Dead had a huge map too. If its only filled by 16 people, its basically a free roam mode.

The options of social activities from golf, tennis and base jumping and more - Mini games, sure theyre fun, but what exactly is different from playing a mini game here as to messing around in red dead and what not.

The potential idea that rockstar has been pushing of linking liberty city and other gta cities to create a GTA world.
Besides all that I believe they have the same core basics, but I'm quiet happy to immerse myself within the GTAonline world.

The linking of cities does actually sound good, but so what if they have the core basics? Red Dead had the core basics and that multiplayer got old fast.

Also it's not 16 random players, it's customizable apparently. First it will try to find games your friends are in, then it will try to find your crew members, then skill level, so as you can see, it's anything but random.

So it is random. Its not a dedicated world. Sure you can always join the same sessions as your friends which you could do in GTA IV and Red Dead. Most online games prioritize on skill too.

I just dont see what the huge deal is about. Red Deads multiplayer was bigged up in hype too but it was pretty poor.

You have your open world lobby (Los Santos) with 16 random or not so random people running around. If you want to play a death match you will need to load into a different game. The world isnt consistent.

It sounds grand, I just really dont see what seperates this so much from what they attempted with Red Deads multi player.

It's a game that focuses on theft, gangs,drugs and guns. What are you expecting, dancing with a pony? Of course it's going to end wIth shooting 30 guys at the end of it, but it's how and with whom you approach each mission .

You should probably watch and read more GTAv vids and articles to explain the details better.

Luckily I only have to convince myself and not you. :-)

Theres tons to do in gta online but most of all I can't wait to crew up, rob a liquor store, get away from the cops and split the cash......or not.

I noticed it said the crew leader decides how the loot is split. So will that be you online or offline or the person who is the highest rank in the in-game group

The person that grabs the loot gets to split it.

I wonder if anyone will actually trust someone else in a robbery.

Personally, I'm considering borrowing from the Dark Knight and sending everyone messages to kill each other so we can split the money before killing them :pac:

You're a lieutenant now. I expect plans that involve a double/triple/quadruple cross.

dave1982

Like I said before I'm looking forward to being the security in the liquor store, waiting for ye scumbags to rob it

Zero-Cool

Before a job, you pick your part like, sniper, driver, money man. Not sure how smooth this will work but I think the biggest laughs will come from a double cross.

Anyone double crosses me and I will forever be putting bounties on their heads and I ain't talking about the delicious coconut filled chocolate bars.

Hmm.. I think my R* name is chokeslamcena.. if anyone wants to hire me as a GTA Rep, I'd be happy to do so (so long as it's not commission-only).


I suppose, before I get into that though, i should ask how I join a 'crew' and what is the purpose of one? I've literally not read up on anything since IV I assume a 'crew' is a group of people that will associate together (and therefore ultimately end up playing together online a lot as PSN will automatically throw me into games with people i 'know'?)

Made ye reps there. Ye can now recruit people to the crew. Yeah, just an easy way to get a game online with some locals. Playing in a crew gets you more XP so you will level up faster.
