Character creation is a joke. ...Well GTA online's a joke too...hopefully Rockstar will fix the server issues,... They made enough money and they should've learned from the Max Payne 3 multiplayer issues.

Online shouldn't exist in a game like this.

It's common sense.

It certainty is the most pretentious character creation ever. Its only complex because mechanically it is annoying instead of picking your whole roots and see what you come up with, why not just be able to pick out how your character looks instead of trying too hard to be innovative. Dark souls is character creation done right.

It could be good if Rockstar spent some more time on it.

couldn't do anything at first, then done character creation but it kicked me out before the first race. managed to finish the first race and then a top down view of the city for 2 minutes before I turned my ps3 off. reloaded and my character had gone and had to redo it - same thing happened. so frustrated with this already...

 

EDIT: if there's a way to skip the intro cutscene that i've had to view 3 times i'd really appreciate hearing how....

Wow that character creation looks awful. Saints Row 2 has amazing customization, they should've just copied that.

Trying to be funny, but fails at it. If you want to have MP in Open World Games, at least learn how to manage the servers.

So even though they'll get it to work eventually, they shouldn't bother putting multiplayer at all? :|

Lmao, I know how stuff works. There's a thing called Beta Testing. Why didn't Rockstar use that opportunity? Stop acting like a wise guy.

They could've done that before releasing it. They have several studios that they could use for beta testing.

there isn't a point in wasting money and time on tons of extra servers just for 1-3 days.

You need to learn what stress testing is and how that can't compare to going live. There is only so much you can do with stress testing. Beta testing is there to find bugs that need to be squashed, not to test server load.

Eh. It's a novel idea I guess? But ultimately it's just kind of daft and seems to limit your options, or at least make them really opaque. Reckon the characters look samey. Just give me a bunch of options, sliders and/or molding points, please.

Wow this looks terrible. If there is one thing that the Saints Row series has that's better then GTA V, it's character customization. Rockstar really needs to get ideas from them.

running around Los Santos.  But at the same time, it's hard to really make your character look right.

Its really bad.... really hard to not have dark skin in the character creator, as almost all but 1 of the grandparents both male and female are all hispanic, asian or african american... which I have no problem with diverstiy but come on... They should of just made it a slider for skin and hair colors and other things , you know like every other character designer in existance!!! Its also messed up that changing your stats changes your characters looks completly, to the point you need to start over, and its freakn random! AFter all the trouble making a character, i get a message to spectate and i hit yes. A bar shows up, the music plays but nothing shows under the bar... 5 min pass with no controls to do anything... so I had to exit the game.. Great online there uggh!!!
