Is GTA V playable online

[Confused_user]

To those who have played GTA online, how was the experience? Is the game playable? How much lag can I expect?

Now I know that the PC version isn't out yet, so no one can really say how it'll be, but I'm here asking the PS4/XB1 players. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the experience should be pretty close.

Please do help me out.. I really wanna buy this game... But I feel like I'd be wasting my 2.5k if the online portion wasn't playable at all.

IF you have a bad ISP you may suffer from lag issues. But yes initially after launch on PC you may experience server outages / ping issues /glitches and bugs because of lot of traffic.

I'm on alliance Kolkata... Forgot to mention... I'm looking for opinion from people who have actually played it on current gen consoles so I can at least get a rough idea.

Also, what are the advantages of buying the retail compared to getting a *free* one?

Depends on the plan and ping on the servers, I guess you'll get around 200 ping.

1. Online Play
2. Updates and patches
3. Moral Value

Console owners have.

I'm asking the console owners only. Read my post

Then you should had made the post in Console section NOT PC section.
