Spawn any vehicle including online DLC cars anywhere instantly, customize/save/load cars and weapon loudouts anywhere with any character, teleport anywhere instantly with no load time and so much more. Incredibly powerful mod and super easy to install. I regret waiting so long to try it because I'm having more fun with this game now than I ever did before

The hackers/modders ruined it for me a year ago and I stopped playing but now I just create solo public lobbies and grind away unmolested. When I get bored of that, I go back to classic Heists (which never really get old for me) or check out any of the new modes they keep creating/rotating. Every time I come back to this game, I can't help but admire the attention to detail and the raw fun baked into this game. Coming from someone who is critical of 90% of the games coming out these days, consider that high praise. Aside from the modders, the only thing I don't like about what they've done to Online is adding in stuff that doesn't belong in the GTA world - rocket cars/bikes, orbital cannon and other idiotic stuff. Just another reason to play in a Public Solo session.

Factoring in the 30% discount on Steam gift cards the historical low sits at $10.50.

I've spent more time over the years playing around in Director mode than GTA:O but Director mode also had limitations so discovering Menyoo for single player is a huge breath of fresh air for me as I'm finally able to enjoy GTA as the unlimited potential sandbox with the freedom I've always wished it had.

Great price OP! I originally bought this @ full price!

Does it make sense for me to spend the $21.95 for the Criminal Enterprise Starter Pack and Whale Shark Card Bundle if I haven't purchased this for PC yet?

I have been watching some twitch streams of all these people doing RP missions. Is this easy to get into?

Thanks for the help.

Correct me if I'm wrong since I don't play the game but it feels like that would be a better buy(?) if you're looking to start on GTA:O.

txenglan wrote: ↑ This is what I was getting at in my first post. It comes down to philosophy - I don't think it makes sense to pay real world money to not play content in the game. It boggles my mind that people pay for Shark Cards and these variations of the game that give things they could only have acquired by "earning" them in the game. So, effectively, what you are doing is paying more money not to play the game. Following the logic, you'll eventually be able to pay $1000 and not play the game at all - great deal! Not only would I not recommend this but I also don't support developers/publishers pulling this kind of nonsense. It's part of the nasty loot crate/microtransaction landscape and it needs to go away.

The game is easy to get into but you'll likely be a bit confused and overwhelmed at first. There's a lot to learn how to "perfect" things (like roles in Heists) but there's plenty of room for developing your own play style. By "play style", I don't just mean preference for weapons/vehicles but literally which content you gravitate towards. For example, these days, I tend to keep to myself and focus on CEO Import Export missions whereas some other players focus on Motorcycle Club stuff, others do PvP stuff, others 100% only racing. This is what I love about the game - there are so many areas to have fun in but many people will dismiss all of this prematurely because they don't know how to avoid the ridiculously long load times and/or deal with griefers/hackers/modders. Some "events" or "modes" Online are better crafted and more in-depth than other self-contained PC games. The amount of stuff they've crammed (and continue to add) into the Online mode is staggering.
