From today, all GTA Online players get $500k in digital moolah
Have you played Grand Theft Auto Online and suffered through various bugs, disconnects and vanishing profiles? You’re not alone and to say sorry for this, GTA developer Rockstar is dishing out US$500 000 in virtual currency to all GTA: Online players.
According to Gamespot though, you’d need to have logged in for at least one session to qualify for the free half-a-mil.
If the money’s not in yet, stress not, Rockstar says, “We expect that it will take up to two full days for the Stimulus Package to be fully delivered to the entire player base from October 2013, so please be patient if you do not see it appearing in your in-game bank account just yet.”
The money will be directly deposited into everyone’s accounts, so expect to see well-customised rides, high-rise apartments and expensive weapons for each and every player, starting from today. It won’t create an economic imbalance though. Rockstar’s got a plan up its sleeve.
“In order to keep the current worldwide in-game economy balanced, we will be providing this GTA$ to players via two deposits of $250,000. We will announce specific dates as soon as possible, but are currently hoping to be able to make the first deposit by the end of next week (after we’ve confirmed that issues causing game progress loss have been fixed) with the second installment to happen by the end of the month.”
GTA Online launched 1 October to a bevy of issues such as constant disconnects, loss of character rank, items, apartments, money and perhaps even self-worth. Basically, all the worst parts of the bible distilled into digital form. Rockstar tried its best to quell the masses, but it seems that only money will really settle the savagery of the average online player. “For players who experienced cloud server errors, connection issues, and lost game progress and characters in these first days of GTA Online, we hope this GTA$ helps to facilitate a fresh start or makes your continued life in Los Santos and Blaine County extra sweet.” Thanks guys and girls.
