Since it is similar to the gameplay of the PC version of GTA Online were not at all satisfied, a group of modders built a service that allows them to host “custom multiplayer variants. Now their accounts have been taken over by Rock star permanently locked so that they Grand Theft Auto V and other games made by the maker of GTA series were released, can no longer be played.
Quite a few PC gamers liked and dislike the online experience that the standard version of GTA Online bestowed. That’s why most people don’t take action, but these few people we’re talking about created something, namely a mod that allows players to play with each other via dedicated servers. The creators describe FiveM as “a planned multiplayer modification for Grand Theft Auto V which, many in the lines of popular modifications in the past, offers an advanced multiplayer environment for people to play on dedicated servers with user-made game modes.” This is what this mod looked like in May:
In the Grand Theft Auto V PC sub Reddit describes users qaisjpthat be Rockstar Social Club accounts as well as the accounts of others GTA V PC players have been banned because of their connections FiveM have:
It seems that NTAuthority and TheDeadlyDutchi were also banned. Dutchi has used mods before (but a very long time ago) and (as far as I know) NTA has never used single player mods (besides creating FiveM, of course). I found this out today, not too long before I started writing this post.
I am not a developer of FiveM, I am just the mere moderator of the subreddit, but yes, I have some sort of affiliation with the mod. I was skeptical that we were banned(Screenshot) for being contributors (in some way) to the FiveM project.
NTAuthority and TheDeadlyDutchi was banned on Thursday as well… surprise surprise. I asked Dutchi what time he got the email… 1:52am. We were banned within two minutes of each other. It was certainly a manual ban. This completely rules out the possibility that I was banned for single player mods – the good news is that Rockstar doesn’t seem to be banning people for just using single player mods. The bad news is that Rockstar is trying to stimulate the modding community.
PC players must log in to Rockstar Social Club to play any part of GTA V to be able to play, why qaisjp and the other affected parties now have no access to the game or other titles associated with the blocked accounts.
As the PC version of Grand Theft Auto V appeared a few months ago, signaled Rockstar Games Support for single player mods and explainedthat you don’t want modders to change anything about the online component of the game:
We have always appreciated the creative efforts of the PC modding community and we still fondly remember the awesome zombie invasion mod and original GTA map mod for GTAIV PC among many other classics. To be clear, the modding policy in our license has not changed and is the same as for GTAIV. Recent updates to GTAV PC had an unintended effect of making certain single player modifications unplayable. This was not intentional, no one has been banned for using single player modifications, and you should not worry about being banned or being relegated to the cheater pool just for using single player PC mods. Our primary focus is on protecting GTA Online against modifications that could give players an unfair advantage, disrupt gameplay, or cause grief.
Many of the angrier comments in the Reddit thread refer to this Rock stars current bans do not match the company’s previous statement as FiveM has no connection to GTA Online and didn’t interact with it.
