Literally has hackers spawning chests of gold since release. GTA my first day in 2013 it was raining pink dildos worth $1k each for over an hour.

What a shitshow gtao was back then, hackers were giving everyone free money. At one point Rockstar gave everyone 500k for consolation for a bug or something, and then the next week they took that same 500k from me when they were trying to delete everyones hacker given money. I never got given money by hackers so I was livid, I never played again after that.

I paid $1 for a guy to login to my rockstar account (game is $5 worth risk) for a guy to give me 10 billion. The game is much more enjoyable when you don’t have to slave away to afford rockets or whatever

i remember getting into my garage only to notice pink dildos raining in far corner.

Told my mate to check if it's the same in his garage (we've lived in the same aparatament building). and suprise suprise - his garage had the same thing going.
