I had more fun with GTA Online than I did with GTA V on PS3. My character is rank 111 with over $20m cash. Griefing with the sniper, Buzzard, tank etc. in the lobbies and showing off ultra expensive vehicles never got old. One of the coolest moments in the game is when your team is in a mission and is struggling away on the ground and you come soaring in on a Buzzard with rockets flying and save the day.

Can you elaborate on the above a bit? How do you team up? Random groupings? Ask for invites? How easy is it as a saffer to enjoy the MP side of the game? For 700USD i want to be damn sure I wont get bored of it quickly, and there will be plenty of stuff to do.

It's not easy to team up with randoms. Maybe even impossible. I was in a fairly large local crew and some of my best friends were in it too.

There's a lot to do in GTA Online. You'll probably spend more time screwing around in lobbies that doing activities though, because that's where the real carnage is.

Also, make sure you have a headset. Don't be the guy without a headset.

Busy installing to SSD, it has been more than 1.5 hours, making me worry now, using an external dvd drive might be the problem.

is it worth while multiplayer wise?

I'm only buying this for the multiplayer as I've finished the campaign on xbox. Latency isn't a problem, I play insurgency and planetside2 exclusively on euro servers and they are both very playable.

So are you getting the PC version, could do with a friend with a buzzard.

I finished installing it early this morning and am about to play it now. I installed it straight onto my PC's hard drive. Took me about 2.5 hours to install discs then had to wait overnight for the last 5 Gigs. Anyone running this on 4K resolution?

I don't think you'll notice, load times will be faster though.

I paid R649 when I pre-ordered from kalahari, minus R100 kalahari voucher and minus some E-bucks, ended up paying maybe R200 :D
