GTA+ has been officially announced by Rockstar

[ThemePark]

Rockstar are releasing a subscription service for the current gen consoles, called GTA+. And yes, it's absolute ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. It's looking very likely that PC and last gen will be abandoned by them very soon, hence this post to make people aware of it.

I think you're wrong about them abandoning PC. I mean they love money (which PC does generate) and there's already two hidden depots they're actively revising on Steam (likely the badly remastered GTA Trilogy plus GTA Online standalone). However, I don't doubt for a second they'll try bringing this $6 per month paid plan to PC GTAO, which seems tantamount to what they used to do with Twitch / Prime Gaming rewards, and of course the same horrid situation with cheater trash in public lobbies and other activities.

Yep, you might be right that they'd bring the subscription to PC too. I've just had a hunch for a while now that they'd shut down PC soon because of their actions, but either is horrible.

so it is simply time delayed content, if i read it correctly nothing really exclusive

looks like you may need it as a race enthusiast while the best car is prop always locked behind this + membership
Iam guessing the new balanced military vehicles will be also exclusive for a certain time
I wonder how much room is left for powercreep until they hit a boundaries of the engine?
How fast can these verhicles become until it impacts maneuverability?
Let me guess military verhicles get extra armor and even mor agressive rockets.

3x on hao races are still peanuts compared to other activities but it is nice to have if you like racing
Do these double tripple cash event become now exclusive to gta+?

everyone is free to ignore

isn't this stuff already everywhere?
twitch prime, amazon prime, ps+ and people happily join the club

It is better than the bullshark, where 500k cost 7,50$ and you get better deals on additional shark cards

Welcome to America, scam haven and everything is a fraud.

You don't get it, it's a new Online Heist scenario... but now you're the target of the robbery.

Who in it's right mind would take GTA+ when they ♥♥♥♥ over people with they ♥♥♥♥♥♥ remaster

Hahhhahahahahaahhahahahahahaah lmfaooo who is gonna buy that garbage

That's just a sharkcards subscription lol
"Geniuses" like Lester would say...

I know getting money is easy but not for everybody. Look at how much money they earn with sharkcards.

GTAO is designed to make you pay to play. Balanced games only charge for skins, cosmetic stuff...
Level 1 and 1000 should have same health/armor and same weapons/vehicles. It's called balance...
So lots of customers are and will buy sharkcards/subscriptions to have better vehicles and upgrades. They also need to pay to have acces to specific missions.
R* is good at designing offline games, not online...

Phone games are worse business model ? And it works.
Customers are idiots...

Basically just twitch prime but slightly better
500k a month isn't a good incentive though, you can get triple that in like 10 minutes with Cayo

Twitch Prime used to be $1m per month though, at least for the first like year or year and a half.

any of you support this and you're apart of the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ problem.

Im sorry, but the tests came back positive for GTA+. We are going to have to do a wallet extraction stat.

They wont bring the subscription to PC would be pointless with all the cheats and modmenu's availabe. Cheating is already way out of control on PC. They will continue supporting the game with updates

Fallout 1st vibes.

I feel the odds are very high they'll do some "free trial" offer that they'll try to enroll most or all players into, "your first month of GTA+ free!", which will then auto-renew and perhaps have a difficult cancellation process. Also, I notice the Starter Pack seems to be going the way of the dodo, unless previously purchased, at least in connection to the new console version that's no longer "Expanded and Enhanced".
