what's with the micro updates?

[dopugsnotdrugs]

i swear each is like 30 kilobytes and does nothing to fix anything, does not improve quality of life, does not compress any of the hard drive space to make the game smaller.. im certain they do this so the people using ahem cough cough will have to update their thing which takes time.. its a strategy to put them on the back foot lol..

i think at some point ima just play the original gta san andreas and delete this massive cow from my pc forever :) man i miss jedi academy too.. i need to play more old games and watch more epsiodes of old star trek from 1990 to 2010..

it is good to annoy the cheater so they have extra work, to keep their menus updated

Yeah I think that is exactly what they are doing. There used to be one or two a month and now there are one or two a week.

Yeah it's pretty irritating. It also messes up mod compatability for those of us play story mode.

Exactly. I thought the Legacy version was supposed to be left alone?

It is still tied to gta5 online and supported for the time being. I don't recall them saying 'we won't do anything to it anymore'. Certainly not like how they abandoned RDO. Or, the patch notes make it look like they messed up/changed something and fixed it... but whatever.

If modding storymode gta5 on steam, it doesn't take much to straight up undo the update. If you need a file list, you can even go look at steamdb for the patches info to do backups before updating. I do really wish steam had some kind of hidden dev/debug mode where you could straight up disable updates on games though (and, off again to look around and see if they quietly added something like that...)

When the cheaters that are in their 20's or earlier get to their 30's,40's and 50's what kind of stories will they have to tell other people? I could just see it now. It's probably something like. You know, "back in the day me and my crew used to cheat at video games".

While your spewing all that static someone's going to be talking about how they rebuild motorcycles or places they've been and real people that they have met.

I guess the point of this post is to try and demonstrate just how useless playing and cheating video games is. You can't really put it on a resume I don't think. Maybe the ones that code the cheats can but most likely they aren't playing games.

They do it for real profit and unfortunately it's not good for anyone. Think about the way they think about life choices. Such as stealing credit cards and not really having a moral compass to set themselves straight.

Because once they cheat at one thing, don't they pretty much want to cheat at everything especially if they get away with it and never have to face any real consequences. It just seems like a dead end street to follow.

p.s I hope the micro updates never stop.

Rockstar definitely should have released SP and MP as separate games/installs. Eh, just opinion on the matter.
