So I thought I would give GTA online another go...

[leelaa14]

Since I updated my game and messed my mods up I thought, fuck it..I will remove all mods and play online.

I get into a game, have a drive around, then my car doors, boot and hood start opening and shutting.
I blow up, then everyone else blows up.
It then says leelaa15 (me) killed all the other players.

I got made out to be the hacker, and from then on got given all kinds of shit.

I then got all my money and guns removed from me, then I got every gun in the game given to me along with 1 mil.

Sorry I even tried, what a shame.
No doubt I will be banned in the next few days.

You won't get banned.

Hackers can make it look like you have killed the whole server happened to me yesterday and nothing you can do about it.  Honestly, just do a fresh install of the game.

"Just" a fresh install of a 60+ GB game

Weird, not had a single hacker yet

 

although me and my friends often start a private session

Yeah it was the very first game I joined. Won't be playing online again that's for sure.

Shame, Wouldnt give up after one session, sheesh, 

[Snickerzz]

Because rockstar has yet to implement any sort of anticheat. Fucking GTA4 had better anticheat.

You shouldnt get banned, rockstar has stated you wont get banned if a modder spawns money on you

It would only take me about 20 minutes, but either way there's no point.

I won't be playing online anymore so might as well just get back to modding single player I suppose.

People can take your money and guns now? Never heard of that. Aside from the random guy spawning sacks of money or swinging his explosive-gattling gun while being invincible - i have not seen any serious "hacking"

[leelaa14]

I'll wait for something to be done about the hackers, it just kinda killed the mood off really, I was quite excited to get back online and do some heists etc and then to be greeted with that was just a downer to be honest.

Yeah, I had my pdw equipped, then I went to unarmed (passive mode was disabled.),

When I opened up the weapon wheel I only had my fists, then 5 minutes later i was given all the weapons in the game, had my money drained and then a short time after I had 1 mil given to me.

should of just pressed F10 and captured it on shadowplay.

That money part is really irritating and frustrating. I would not want to loose my hard earned 240 mil. GTA dollars.

You have a 400+ mbit/s internet connection?

[Dat Midget]

LOL i have a 1.6 mb/s download speed it took me literally 13 hours to install GTA V. It's painful.

[leelaa14]

About. 20 minutes is what I said

I don't think they remove it and you should be fine spending it.

 

from Rockstar

Question: I heard GTA Online cheaters were causing large amounts of modded GTA$ to transfer to innocent players over the past few weeks. Is Rockstar Games aware of this, and what is being done?

Answer: We have received complaints over the past few weeks about cheaters gifting large amounts of GTA$ to others, setting bounty rewards outside game limits, or otherwise attempting to tamper with the GTA Online economy. We have deployed several hotfixes to prevent this type of activity, and will be adding further cheat protection in future Title Updates as well. Players who willingly cheated to create this illegitimate influx of in-game currency will be separated out from the rest of the population. If you were the unwilling recipient of an impossibly large amount of GTA$, you do not need to worry about disciplinary action against your account. However, please be aware that we will be making community-wide automatic adjustments to players’ account balances to remove the modded money.

Had the same stuff (explosions and blown ties etc) happen to me on severall occasions on there. It's frustrating to put time into a game and trying to level up past lvl 7 just to get messed with. I was in first on a pretty long race and then just got blown up randomly and repeatedly.

I don't think a fresh install is necessary thou. And anyways you can copy the game files and reinstall without redownloading the entire game if you did want to
