If the rumor about them doing it for GTA6 is true I support that decision.

The online of the last game was completely overrun and ruined by loud ass little kids with scratchy mics

With everyone being over 18,(for the most part, obviously some will find ways around it) perhaps the online map will be a decent place to hang out in again.

Like you could actually play without muting everyone by default

The online of GTA is ruined by modders who make you explode randomly and crash your game with spam messages.

One of the reasons why I don't play GTA Online on PC...
Especially when at one point modders were able to ban regular players for legit no reason and the only way to appeal those bans was from R* support

Ew no. Parents just need to monitor their kids better

The only "good" that it could potentially sort out is anonymity online and maybe (likely not) create accountability for people to bot act like assholes online.

This will not happen.
Stand out, fit in
As if the issue with online is with young kids. Have you seen how the 30 and 40+ years old act here?

I mean, I personally would not mind it for GTA because I actively dislike the series and Id be happy to see the sales go down which it likely would if this went into effect but I of course acknowledge that the principle of the thing is far far more important than my dumb personal pettiness.

Thankfully some of us realize destroying anonymity is an utterly idiotic idea.
WTF DUH I DUH
I really don't plan on playing it online honestly, so idc about that. If I need it to play the actual game Rockstar can fuck all the way off forever.

Okay, how about this conversation? GTA is rated M, which means minors can't legally purchase it. So that means adults are buying the game for those minors and allowing them to play it. Would it stand to reason that adults can still do that with ID verification? Verify their ID, then let their kid play the game? So how much impact would ID verification really have on you not having to hear minors on GTA Online?

That lasted for like six months
Then the modding tools got hella hardcore.

The two most annoying ones, besides players spawning exploding blow-up dolls on you and teleporting you to random places, were free money spam messages that would crash your game (doubly annoying because at least one new heist, Cayo Perico, actually has a scouting section to it that is instanced while still in the session, so you'd have to re-do the whole scouting section if you got hit by the spam), AND modders that would instantly kill you and crash your game when you tried to submit a report against them.

There's something mildly ironic about that happening in specifically GTA.

Like they're ditching the two star wanted level via silencing all the witnesses.

April 15, 2024: The Day the Internet Died
I guess the main point I was making is "aren't little kids that play GTA online fucking annoying?"

Pretty boring take.

However, when infused with the Current Event of the online ID verification controversy, I was able get a little engagement going n get jerked off on.

Is that so bad and crazy?
You better watch your butt, man
OP is kinda right, there should be some sort of verification needed to play the online portion of GTA VI. kids shouldn't be playing in public lobbies or even have their mic on.

Same needs to be done somehow for CoD or any online M rated game. It's not unusual to hear one or more kids spouting racist shit or saying some really fucked up things while playing Black Ops 6. I know adults do it too but it doesn't mean kids should be playing M rated games online.

Yes, parents need to monitor what their kid does and limit screen time but you know most parents today aren't doing it and aren't being a parent but their kids friend and letting the brats do whatever they want.

Parents aren't going to sit in the same room as their kid for hours while they play a game they shouldn't even be playing and monitor anything they do.

An alternative is, as soon as a kid is heard on the mic in a public lobby be it GTA or CoD, they're immediately kicked out of the game and banned from playing online. Kinda like a console ban but only for any M rated game.

Something obviously needs to change. Kids shouldn't even be on the damn mic in a M rated game let alone playing it if its online.

You're a catty one aren't you lol. I was obviously being silly and using hyperbole with the echo chamber thing, don't be so defensive.

Maybe I see that this ID thing is inevitable and I'm just saying that one of the aspects of it (potentially getting less kids on GTAO) would be a bright spot, and something I wouldn't be totally against.

Or am I not allowed to find solace or peace in anything you guys don't fully approve of?

Locking to adults accomplishes jack and shit. Look at Trump lol, no age limit on childishness.
Sorry.
Not sorry.
You think this will resolve that issue?

I like how throughout this whole post you never actually explain how the age verification should happen. That's pretty typical of knee-jerkers and people who fall for "think of the children!". Locate a problem but not be able to give an actual solution. Or simply nod along to bad solutions as long as the problem has been located. So what should happen? Take a picture of your driver's license and send it to the devs in order to play online? Your social security? I'm curious if you even have the first one yourself.

And here we have a perfect example. Giving a terrible solution that nets many untargeted collateral. You've made extremely immature and childish posts and meltdowns on here that are reminiscent of children. Perhaps you should be given a ban from online?

Low effort trolls are such a bore, though. Admitting that you framed the topic for rage bait purposes, throwing a tantrum about echo chambers and dogpiling, and then trying to pivot to a nonchalant Bros I was just kidding haha but also I do think this would be good is just D tier trolling.
CE deserves better than D tier trolling imo!

Lmao. They don't need to be helicopter parents to keep their kids off of M-rated games. Those kids are on there because their parents allow it, plain and simple. An adult has to purchase those games for them. We shouldn't have to suffer to make up for those parents not caring what their kids do.

My kid is 10, and there are tons of parental controls available on everything. I set an age rating limit on his Switch, so even if he somehow manages to get access to a game cart with a T or M rating (because I'm not buying those for him), he can't actually play it without my approval. The Switch will block it from launching. Parental controls are that easy.
