GTA Online: Rockstar posts list of known bugs, is working on them now

4.5
Rockstar Games has told fans it is "working around the clock" to address issues affecting GTA Online, the multiplayer component of its acclaimed blockbuster GTA V.

Ahead of the GTA Online launch on Tuesday, Rockstar asked customers for patience and predicted the service would have natural teething problems. Analysts estimate the game has already been bought by 15 million people globally, and the online portion of the title launched simultaneously worldwide, leading to huge demand being placed on the game's servers.

"We are continuing to look into these issues and are working around the clock on resolving them as quickly as possible," Rockstar said in a message posted on the game's official news wire.

"This includes close monitoring of our support systems, forums, social media, and in-game data to measure traffic along with community sentiment to ensure ongoing improvements to stability."

Rockstar has listed nine known issues with GTA Online, but it has yet to acknowledge claims from some users that their single player save file has been deleted since going online.

The acknowledged list of online problems include:

Occasional "Rockstar Cloud Servers Unavailable" error message
Freezing sometimes while loading into first race in GTAO with "waiting for other players" on the screen
Intermittent "Failed to Host a GTA Online Session" error messages
Race Corona (start area, marker) occasionally not showing up for first race
Errors saying "Timed out when matchmaking for a compatible GTA Online Session to join"
Occasional errors about jobs failing to start or load
General issues with the Social Club site and Social Club features
Misc. network and server-related error messages, disconnections, or cloud server errors
Errors saying "Mission Failed" as soon as the mission begins during a session

xSTaTiCBLuEx Took me about 2.5 hours to get on and do the tutorial yesterday. it's pretty appaling. They wait 2 weeks so the release won't have teething problems yet it has **** ridiculous stuff going on. Pretty pathetic launch, especially if updatin the game also has the chance of erasing your singleplayer save...


Agreed. Rockstar has clearly dropped the ball on this one.
I got on after trying for 6 solid hours. During this I lost my single player save. I was f*cking pissed off. I'm thinking of modding one to get my stuff back.

I reckon it will be good by the weekend. I'm just annoyed that all my friends are able to get online and I can't :(

By fixing one thing they mess up another give it a week and it should all be going a little smoother.

I really hope that they fix this up because I probably spent an hour yesterday on trying to connect to lobbies so I could play with my friends, but it kept say I timed out.
