Grand Theft Auto Online Servers Struggle Under Strain
It had seemed that the Grand Theft Auto Online launch would be relatively struggle-free, but that’s turned out not to be entirely true. Fans are stuck at the launching screen and are taking to Twitter to complain.
In all fairness, there are very few online launches that manage to go off without a hitch, although Rockstar had been confident that they’d be able to deal with demand.
On the other side of the console war, there are people concerned that the 360 got the patch before PS3 players. Rockstar tweeted from the official GTA account that the timing of the patch was entirely down to Microsoft and Sony, so it doesn’t seem there’s any mystery to be found here. Still, some are angry that they can’t… well… sit watching the launching screen.
If you’d planned on playing Grand Theft Auto Online over the next few days, it might be worth adding a little extra time while server issues are sorted out.

I just seem to wonder how many servers Grand Theft Auto had to download for this because it was probably a ton of money they put just into the servers.

-Skillz I hope they fix them soon..getting really annoying now
I'm sure they are working on it.
they have over a billion dollars to spend on programmers now so the bugs should be fixed soon, lol.

It seems like it is still under strain. I have been losing progress steadily for the past few days. Might as well just replay campaign while I wait.

Dr-Ponyfile All I have to say to this is struggle is an understatement more of a disaster is along the right lines of what's happening I cannot wait till they fix it all seriously.
The first few days were a huge disappointment, as you said...a disaster. Now though it seems like most of the issues are gone besides characters being deleted
