| 03/23/18 GTA Online Ban Wave: What we know so far: Posted: 26 Mar 2018 03:24 AM PDT Original link to post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/gtaonline/comments/86q5lj/032318_gta_online_ban_wave_what_we_know_so_far/ The following text has been copied and rewritten accurately from u/MikeRaven11 on r/gtaonline and has replaced the old pinned sticky from u/Roxas-The-Nobody (post here) to make sure that all information regarding the recent Ban Wave is available to anyone wising to view such material. This post will be updated when more information is available. Last Updated: 3/26/18 at 4:46 PM EST On 03/23/2018, a large number of posts on r/gtaonline, the Rockstar support forums, Twitter, and other GTA communities popped up that their accounts had been falsely banned for 30 days without appeal. As of now, we don't know exactly why this ban has happened - some claim that it may be the work of modders, others think that it may be an issue with the latest tunables update or participating in the new Hotring series races. I'll try to provide a brief overview and update it as necessary: -About 12 hours ago, the GTA Tunables was updated. Rockstar changed coding stuff for Hotring races by adding and removing several lines of code, as well as a change related to a car selling exploit. -The first messages about the ban started showing up about nine hours ago - at first, people were skeptical (after all, everyone and their mother who gets legitimately banned claims they didn't do it) but the sheer number of posts, tags, and claims that they were unfairly banned should at least draw some concern. Some of these accounts have less than 10 hours of in game time, supporting the idea that the ban wave is picking up people incorrectly. -So far, the ban wave only seems to be affecting PC users. Note: The tunables update is only on PC (thanks to /u/EminGTR for pointing this out.) -Rockstar support seems to be ignoring the issue - they are still responding to support messages not related to the ban wave. -One reddit user claimed that a new mod menu was causing people to get banned, although there is no evidence or proof to back this up. -In previous occasions where Rockstar was truly at fault, they have reversed bans although none of us are sure at this point whether or not this will happen. -People have been getting emails informing them of the ban, but you can check if your account has been banned by clicking this link. If your online player has his stats zeroed out (it'll look like this), you've been banned. -UPDATE 03/24/18: Rockstar's anticheat seems to have truly failed, as, according to a post in the GTA online discord, a user using their own anti-cheat detected everyone else in their session was a modder. Another user also using a similar program showed similar results.- thank you to GTA Online Discord user Funnypig for posting this, as well as the Reddit user who DMed me the second screenshot -UPDATE 03/24/18: Steam is currently detecting a high volume of negative reviews for GTA V. (The spike in negative reviews in July 2017 was the whole OpenIV issue, look at the graph to the right of that one.) -UPDATE 03/24/18: According to leaker Yan2295, support tickets for issues regarding bans are marked as low priority and closed, so marking support tickets should be done as something other than a ban appeal. -Minor update 03/24/18: Looks like major YouTubers have started to pick up on this issue, DatSaintsFan made a video talking about it. Looks like he saw this post because my screenshot of the Steam chart was used. MrBossFTW (video will NOT be linked in this rewrite) has made a video too, and actually said some of the stuff I posted in this post word for word (although he was kind enough to actually credit me.) If anyone else wants to make a video and uses the info in this post, I would appreciate at least linking this thread or getting a shoutout in the video. Thanks. -UPDATE 03/25/18: -Minor update 03/25/18: It appears that even with the latest tunables update, Rockstar anticheat is still flagging almost everyone as a modder - (thank you to /u/moocowmaniak for this information) -UPDATE 03/25/18: It appears that Rockstar has not disabled the alleged anti-cheat line of code in the latest Tunables update. Further code analysis by members of the community I'm part of have revealed that "TURNONAC_HOTRING" has merely been a renamed to a string of numbers, possibly to throw off data miners. Furthermore, it was determined that the AC in "TURNON_AC_HOTRING" is highly unlikely to actually stand for "anticheat" as there are other switches (code bits) with names such as "NEW_AC_VEHICLE_TEXT." As such, it is still unclear what the exact cause of the bans is, and the latest Tunables update may not have fixed anything. Update to this update: According to leaker Fun 2, "TURNON_AC_HOTRING" doesn't have anything to do with the anticheat, and is actually meant to promote the latest Hotring Series races. Thanks to /u/ Lost_Warrior for pointing this out, whose username is messing with all of the other font styles in my post. -UPDATE 03/26/18: It has appeared that Rockstar has changed their narrative from "all bans are final and cannot be appealed" to "we are aware of the issue and are looking into it." This might mean nothing at all, but it appears that Rockstar themselves are working on it rather than just Tier 1 tech support. Thank you to the multiple people who contacted me through DM and in comments and brought this up. As an aside, Polygon, PC Gamer (thanks to /u/Rob-187), and a number of other gaming news organizations have picked up this story. I implore the editors of those articles to update their articles as more information comes in. To the rest of you guys, keep at it! We need to get Rockstar to properly acknowledge their fault and creating enough stir to get people to pick up on this story turns the odds in our favour for change. Thank you all for your continued support! If I were to guess it would be an issue with the latest tunables update that didn't show itself right as it was updated; however, I'll keep this post updated as I get new info. Were you recently banned unfairly? Post in the comments what you were doing when you got banned, I'm trying to find a correlation between what players were doing and if they were banned or not. Thank you to Rockstar forums user --A.d-- for reposting this post to the forums for more exposure. Thank you to the mod team of /r/GrandTheftAutoV and the mod team of /r/gtaonline for stickying a link to this post to keep everyone informed. No problem u/MikeRaven11. Thank you for taking the time to get all this information together. - from u/ApacheAH-64A (r/GrandTheftAutoV Moderator) [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 26 Mar 2018 08:32 PM PDT I came back to check out the Doomsday heist a few days ago. I was doing the prep missions, alone, and when I got to the Deluxo one I ended up failing before delivering the last car because time ran out. Today I recruit some people and do the mission again, but right when it started the server split and I ended up alone without a way to cancel the mission to go to a new session. So I just start doing it anyway. I get one car into the facility and succeed. Apparently the 3 I got in my first failed attempt still count when doing the mission again; even several days later. Is this supposed to happen? It still showed I needed all 4 in the mission HUD; it just gave me a mission success upon returning the first Deluxo the second time doing the mission.

| Posted: 26 Mar 2018 11:41 PM PDT So I was busy with the doomsday act 1 to make some money, I had done all the preps and when I started doing the Akula setup, I had to quit because I had to go, next day I log on and I get a Lester invite for the act 2 heist, now I didn't get the money for the heist and I don't have the trade prices, I really wanna know what happend.

| Alert The session you are currently spectating... Posted: 26 Mar 2018 09:57 PM PDT So ive seen a lot of posts saying they got the on screen alert from R* as follows: "The session you were spectating is being assessed by Rockstar with a view to broadcasting this as an Online TV Channel. Joining a new GTA Online session." I have also noticed that many of the answers about this are telling people that simply means R* hijacked the session for their Twitch or YouTube stream. I know it's possible that it's a real on screen alert sent from R* admins, but I get this message about 20 times and at all hours of day or night. Sometimes as often as 4 or 5 times in the span of an hour and since there are exponentially more modders out there than R* admins streaming it seems far more likely that it's a modder booting you out of a session for his buddies.

| Posted: 26 Mar 2018 09:07 PM PDT Every time I join there are only five or so people in any given race. I keep reading about these 20 and 30 deep races. Is there something I can do to improve my odds of getting into a packed race? PS4 by the way. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 26 Mar 2018 10:50 AM PDT pulling up players on your in-game TV, some players have an X by there name making them un-selectable/viewable. how is this done? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 26 Mar 2018 03:25 PM PDT I currently own a car warehouse, small crate warehouse and a bunker. Are there any other businesses I should get to make reasonable money from? With my bunker I only have the staff upgrade though. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 26 Mar 2018 03:06 PM PDT At Christmas, I got a PS4 and a slew of games. I got GTA V and I just learned that KITT from Knight Rider is an option, but it is called the Imponte Ruiner 2000 in the game. I've been reading conflicting things about it online that it is a Mod but it is also available in the PS4 version, so I'm just confused if I'm not paying attention to the dates of articles. So my questions are, is it possible for me to play as KITT in the PS4 version that I own? It isn't the GOTY edition either. And if so, how do I exactly get that car? I read that it is the most expensive car in GTA Online and it is part of the Import/Export content but I don't see Import/Export in the list of DLC for the game so I'm all types of confused. Thank you in advance. Like Knight Rider in Lego Dimensions, apparently there is a very small group of people interested in the property still and I couldn't find much information about it until I got to reddit and started asking about it.

| A Little Confused About Online Posted: 26 Mar 2018 11:21 AM PDT Hello Just picked this up this past weekend and played online maybe 4-5 hours. I skipped the tutorial (whoops) so sorry if these questions are answered through it.

| Posted: 26 Mar 2018 09:32 AM PDT I think it's time for a new car that is based off of Ferrari 458 Italia, she's beautiful. Thoughts? [link] [comments]  |
| Wealth of knowledge (open thread) Posted: 26 Mar 2018 12:53 PM PDT Like most of us I have spent countless hours pouring over strategies posted online about how to make fast easy money in GTAV: Online. However, I'd rather you guys tell me some personal favorites or cash income habits you do on your daily grind. [link] [comments]  |
| Best methods for a solo player to make money [XB1] Posted: 26 Mar 2018 09:05 AM PDT I recently started playing again after a long hiatus, starting fresh and I've been running Hotring races and making some decent money doing that. I am wondering what some of the other methods are of making some decent money. I've been hearing about import/export stuff, I'm not exactly sure how all that works, but I'm sure there's a YouTube video out there. What else is there that a solo player can do to increase the amount of zeroes in his Maze Bank account in an efficient way? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 26 Mar 2018 12:30 PM PDT So the other day my friend who never hacks or nothing similar to it got suspended for 30 days and everything set to reset his character. This came out of nowhere, and it seems like there's nothing we can do. Any help out there? Rockstar? [link] [comments]  |
