I tried playing online when it first came out. It was fun for a few days, but wasn’t very long before cheaters would just spawn a hundred cougars right on top of you every game.
Worse. I’m convinced that Rockstar only keeps the servers running because nobody knows which ones they are among the sea of GTA5 servers. The game has been entirely abandoned by the devs, because it never took off like GTA5 did.
Hacking in RDO isn’t just rampant; It’s downright expected. If you’re not hacking, you’ll constantly get blown up from across the map by people with unlimited explosive ammo, no reloads, and auto-aim. The bare minimum requirement is an unlimited health hack, just so you can survive the cross-map snipes long enough to finish a mission or two.
If you play on PC you can change 1 file in a text editor and get solo lobbies every time. Share the file or the changes with friends and you’ll all join each other, I assume it’s got something to do with file hashing
I made a YouTube video on it years ago when I noticed the load screen skip mod produced interesting results in lobbies and started testing and occasionally people comment that it still works lol
> You will not be able to play multiplayer without hackers ruining the experience
Is it as bad as GTA Online?
It’s worse. It is utterly abandoned by rockstar

I’m sure that was frustrating for you, but from an outsider’s perspective that’s funny as fuck.
Yeah the first time was objectively funny. But it became a multiple times an hour thing, where you just couldn’t play the game any more.
Well if you can’t beat 'em, might as well join 'em.
Know of any good hacks?
David Cage is a pretty good hack
Eh nick cage is the hackiest hack of all time

It seems worse. Though now days whenever I play GTA Online, it’s in private friends only mode.
