GTA Online 'Stimulus Package' deployment delayed

4.6
Ongoing bugs prevent free in-game cash distribution until next week

Rockstar has delayed plans to distribute the first half of the $500,000 of in-game cash promised to GTA Online players this week.

The so-called 'Stimulus Package' was promised to users as compensation for the issues that have plagued the online game since its launch on October 1.

The firm had previously announced plans to distribute $250,000 in game cash to players this week (ending Friday, October 25), but this has been delayed owing to ongoing bugs still plaguing the multiplayer mode.

"We of course want to ensure that game progress loss issues are sufficiently sorted before distributing the GTA$ to everyone," said Rockstar in a statement today.

"We have a few more tweaks and fixes to make in a new title update that will hit sometime next week and then we will distribute the cash," it added.

Cyimking I lost interest in GTA V. Like what is the point of playing? They give you the same missions so you can't really make money. By time we get the money we will have all the stuff we wanted. By time they add the heist, the new consoles are going to be out.


What is the point of playing? It's the people like you that ruin GTA Online. That's why I liked GTA 4 online better. On GTA 5 all people care about is getting money. There's people that sit ALL day replaying the same mission. GTA 4 people just did whatever and had fun. Now people are afraid to die because they lose $2000. Adding money ruined online and took the fun out of it.

Every time players get there hopes up in this game something goes wrong, or is delayed.

We're lucky we're even getting this money, they could've easily not gaven us anything, so if you're moaning about it being delayed, stop.

I don't even need the money any more. Maybe 2 weeks ago, it would've helped me, but now I have over 2mill, so it won't really affect me.

Sucks with all of these bugs :/ And plus that they said they can't fix modded money so whats the point?

No surprise there, what else was delayed??? Hmmm

raefonPosted:

hmmmm I have lost interest already, the money would have bought me back but with bugs hindering play and losing levels for no reason it just wore thin very quickly.

its kind of unprofessional that they hadnt thought of these kind of bugs considering they delayed online and delayed the game in general and now delaying the money but at the end of they day they are delaying the money for our benefit so we are not going to lose the money they want to get all bugs out of the way just so we can keep the money

TheKidInBlack The People that really Deserve it, Should get it Now
Not Glitchers and Defiantly not Hackers


Yeah, but you need to understand why it's delayed..They haven't fully fixed the bugs that are messing with peoples characters. And either way, even the glitchers had trouble. Lol. But I agree. Those who cheated probably already got a decent sum of money to last 'em.
