Grand Theft Auto Online micro-transaction details and prices revealed
Eurogamer has spoken to people with early access to Grand Theft Auto Online, and has the details. There will be 4 GTA Online currency cards, with the following UK prices:
- $100,000 Red Shark Cash Card – £1.99
- $200,000 Tiger Shark Cash Card – £3.49
- $500,000 Bull Shark Cash Card – £6.99
- $1,250,000 Great White Shark Cash Card – £13.49
With less than a week before the online modes go live, it seems unlikely that these details will change too severely.
The price of items will vary between the single-player game and Online. So a property that may cost several million in your own game will far cheaper in the Online mode. The most expensive property will set you back $400,000. Conversely, weapon and car mods will be more expensive online so that they’re out of reach when you first start playing.
So, buy spending your real world cash on in-game currency, a low-level player can get faster access to improved vehicles and weaponry.
We can expect full details about GTA Online to be confirmed by Rockstar very soon.

-Lewis- Disappointing news BUT they've got to make money somehow by hosting this free online service.
It isn't free. You get it by buying GTA V. You didn't have to pay for GTA IV multiplayer.

Oh well dose this matter, How are so many people going to be at a disadvantage?
They can just play in the frendly mode until they get more money or they can do heists until they get enough

OnNzaMichael1321 Sellouts, haven't they made enough money already...
Online is different. It has over 500 Missions and they are gonna add more and more when time goes on. They will update the online experience so i dont see a problem with this.
The idea of the game is making money - and you can just buy it? It's fine on CoD, you just buy cool camos which add visual pleasure and don't give you a one up, but it's like buying kill death ratio on black ops!

Gws Look kids, if you don't like buying in game money then you don't have too.
that's the bad part, some people CAN'T buy it, so they're automatically disadvantaged. I'd rather have a GTA 4 style multiplayer than microtransactions.

Those prices are very reasonable. I dont really mind that they're bringing in microtransactions, as long as they dont completely destroy the online mode's competitive aspects.
FrogPosted:
I don't really like this idea even though I don't play GTA, I can see it being annoying that you don't have to progress on-line and you can just buy your stuff, unfair on the people who don't want to spend even more money on the game...

Alberici I am confused on what this is aspost to be?
In game currency, for houses and cars.
Maybe even heists...
MentalistPosted:
Jeff_Hardy This seems like a fair price. I will not be buying any though.
Me neither, I don't like this at all. As I said you're supposed to EARN money, not buying it.
