Miss People should not be complaining about this at all, especially if you've spent $800+ on a PC. I'd definitely want the game to be as near perfect as possible if I spent that kind of money.

I don't think you understand.

Heists were one of the biggest thing advertised before the game even came out (512 days ago). They sold around $40,000,000 in the first ten days. Evidently it takes a company that's been working in the game industry before 3D gaming even came out around a year and a half to complete this.

40 MILL IN 10 DAYS. Not only could that hire enough people to do it faster, but they're still earning money. Don't set a release date for a game if it's not going to be ready in the time you specified. Especially 3 times.

Rockstar is incapable of handling a big title game, delay after delay. Remember when heists was promised almost two years ago. Remember that horrible gta online release, what a disaster that was. Remember those dns servers, gta online was broken for a good two weeks. Shameful company.

Beet Probably to get the bs DRM ready. Look most of us pc gamers are just gonna wait 2 months anyways for a steam sale because we dont want to pay full price for a 2 year old game.

It's to make it run better. Are you really gonna bitch about everything they do? Do you HONESTLY want them to release another GTA IV? You're not entitled to shit, just like the rest of us.

I guess I can wait to the 14th, but the cash will be pointless when people start modding and cheating.
