Seriously, am I the only one who is outraged by this?

Basically what they are saying is I need to buy Max Payne 3 if I want to have an unfair advantage in GTA V Multiplayer, isn't it?
Really R*?
Why don't you let me carry over the alliance I've built in Mass Effect 3 or my FIFA Ultimate Team or my dogs and cats from Farmville? How is carrying over your crew from another game a good thing?

How anyone can think SP is more important in a GTA game

GTA has always been a single player experience, it's not very difficult to guess that it will keep on being their first goal. Since multiplayer gave a lot of life to games nowadays, We can assume that multiplayer in GTAV will be big and a lot more entartaining than GTAIV and will also give us loads of hours of playing, but imo the single player will continue being the main focus on Rockstar due to it's late proven cinephilia with RDR or LA Noire (and GTAIV too)

My interest would actually be a vast Co-op that could join both aspects of single and multiplayer.

there goes the ned luke main character theory out of the window... thoses who pointed multiple protag were right... maybe it will be saints row like & you'll create your own

This could be like GTA SA single player Gang Wars but with Multiplayer.

[SanFierroMan]

So, lets start making crews

[Kimd41]

Good to hear.

Yes I honestly do not think there is any sort of unfair advantage. I don't think any accomplishments in Max Payne 3 will suddenly net you unfair advances when you boot up GTAV for the first time, like say better weapons. At the very least, there'll be some aesthetic differences, like maybe carrying over emblems created in Max Payne 3.

Umm, how did you come to that conclusion? This announcement is about multiplayer - it'll have no bearing on whatever the single-player will be like. I mean, I'm also feeling that there will be multiple protagonists in the story, but this is completely irrelevant.

I wonder how many GTA V fans will now purchase MP3 because of this? Smart move on R*'s part.

I don't play mutli-player that much so it's not an inncentive for me.

I am outraged with this too

[Florz]

Guys... please. This is ALL about business. They just say "GTA V" in there because its good for business and will be on big news pages. If there won't be GTA V in there, it probably wont get really public. They use the Crew Multiplayer Engine on MP3 and on GTA V. Do you get it ? They just want us to buy MP3 because we will get probably the same Multiplayer Engine there.

GTA is not a MP game they just dont get it buy sleepingdogs instead this summer

Maybe you are not getting it.
Since IV came out GTA became also a MP game. I'd say that IV was already 50/50 (if not 40/60).
A lot of the people I know in GTA MP have never even played SP.
Personally I played it once, finished the story and then all the hours I had put in the game were exclusively in MP.
Same happened with RDR.
Nowadays games without MP do not make sense in the eyes of R*.
In fact their only recent game without it, LA Noire, was quite mediocre overall.
R* will keep making games with both SP and MP. Both strong, both good.
It's good news.

Nah, it's just a cynical way to use V to try and boost hype for MP. They must be getting a bit desperate IMO

Both of you are right. Its the beginning for new Information, and they used V for MP3 in this whole story now.
