Play GTA Online – Rockstar Verifies Player Created Content
January 16, 2014Rockstar has released their first verified player created online jobs.
The fanfare for the launch was awesome and this appears to be an excellent method of keeping Grand Theft Auto Online fresh. Best, Rockstar doesn’t have to devote much of their own resources as their customers are creating the content for them. These verified online player jobs are an awesome addition to GTA Online and will encourage people to do more than just roam Los Santos.
Aaron Garbut from Rockstar North told Edge Online, “even more exciting these days, where through forums, Reddit, etc, we have a real direct connection to the people playing the game. We can respond to what they are into and what they hate more than ever. It’s something that really suits the way we work, the way we’re always trying to adapt the experience and avoid walking blindly down a set path.”
No Creator Content From Me Yet
I’m still learning how to play GTA online, so I haven’t attempted to make my own content. However, in the coming weeks I’m going to dig into this option to see if I can make something as epic as the ones released. Gamers are really stoked Rockstar has done this and who wouldn’t want to have their content verified?
I Can’t Shoot You Looking Like That. Or Can I?
Friends have insisted I play GTA online with them and we have begun doing missions, deathmatches and races together. However, I will continue doing more random missions and random freeplay to see what happens, especially when your buddy’s player created character resembles them a wee too much. A few of them have spent some serious hours creating characters resembling themselves. I had a small pause before shooting a friend in a deathmatch simply because their character resembled them too much. After the first kill it became easier, and by the third I was taking great joy in slaughtering a virtual friend.
Stop Talking And Start Shooting Or Racing
There’s nothing worse than spawning into a terrible universe of trash talkers who are not playing Grand Theft Auto. The trash talk is heavy on GTA online, but one night that’s all there was going on. A slew of people were just shouting at each other about who had more swag – in real life and in the game. Stupidly, instead of proving their might, they were just arguing. Kind of funny, but it was just coming across my headset as nothing more than a curse word filled shouting match.
For some reason they couldn’t, or wouldn’t, enter a deathmatch or a race to prove what they were talking about, nor were these several people running around Los Santos shooting each other. A very strange experience that had me spawning out of there quickly.
