Some of the steps in the glitch may not even be required, but nobody wanted to try skipping them in fear of having to do them all over again. Either way, here are the steps that needed to be followed in order to do this glitch, and below them are my thoughts on why they work.

Create a testable capture job
Set spawn location to motorcycle clubhouse
Join crew with nobody else in it
Replay "Fresh Meat"
Quickly run to bed to make game save
Reload your game save
Wait for the black screen to pop up
Close the black screen by holding down on the d-pad and analog stick then declining the new screen that pops up.
Wait for Simeon to call you but do not answer or hang up.
Call the number to go to directors mode and accept the prompt.
Leave the director's trailer as Franklin then kill yourself.
Exit back to story mode
You should respawn back in Michael's house as Franklin, but it is alright if you don't.
Make a quicksave
Go to the creator mode
Start up your capture job
Select the "choose character" option in the menu
Quickly disconnect your internet connection after accepting the alert.
Accept the next alert that pops up
Answer the call from Simeon
Go to director's mode while in the call with Simeon
Change the time of day and change Franklin's look then exit the trailer
Fast travel to the theater
Enter the theater to watch a movie
Reconnect your internet connection
Go back to casting trailer
Wait for the loading symbol in the bottom right of the screen while loading into the casting trailer then immediately go to a recent activity in GTA (through the PlayStation recent activities feed)
Click play on the recent activity then decline the alert that pops up in GTA
Do the same thing as before, but accept the alert this time
Immediately disconnect your internet connection
Reconnect your internet connection
Go to creator mode
Disconnect your internet connection
Accept the alert in the game
Click "Exit to GTA Online"
As soon as you get the black screen you will need to reconnect your internet connection
Do not go back into the game, but rejoin a recent activity
Go back into the game and click square to retry loading into GTA Online
Wait through the extra long loading screen
Decline the alert when you spawn in
Start "A Titan of a Job"
As soon as it fully loads you into the job, try loading into an offline character and decline the alert.
Click "Join crew members" and accept all of the alerts (remember that you must be in a crew alone or in a crew where nobody is online)
Walk to the dartboard in your motorcycle club house
Click "Join crew members" then spam right on the d-pad and x to accept the alert.
Redo what you just did when you load into the session
As soon as it says loading at the bottom right corner, disconnect your internet and reconnect it.
Stay on the internet screen for 40 seconds.
Go back to the game
Accept the alert
Try to load in as Franklin and decline the alert
Try to load in as Michael and decline the alert
Go to the casino and start trading in your chips

Step 4: I can't explain why completing "Fresh Meat" creates a glitched game other than the fact that something is just wrong with the code. I don't like to explain things this way because pretty much every glitch or bug can be described this way, but that's all I've got.

Step 5: The reason you want to run to the bed as quickly as you can is because you want the glitched game to save. I assume you need to do this quickly because the code eventually rights itself and fixes the glitched save.

Step 6: If you do not reload the game save then you will not be able to continue with the rest of this glitch. This is because reloading the save is what gets the game to think that you are Franklin.

After reloading the save you will respawn as Franklin in Michael's house. This is because you mainly played as Franklin during the "Fresh Meat" mission. The glitched save you made tries to recognize this and respawns you as Franklin, but loads you into Michael's house because you made the game save with Michael.

Step 7: The screen will turn black because the glitched save you made for some reason triggers the GTA V logo screen to pop up. This is another one that I'm not sure if I can explain better.

Step 8: To leave this black screen then you will need to hold down on the directional pad and on the analog stick. The screen that pops up removes the previous screen, so now all you need to do is cancel your request to go to GTA Online (which is what down on the d-pad and analog stick does).

Step 9: Now you have to wait for simeon to call you and do not hang up or answer the call. I have no idea why this is a necessary step, but it could be something that trips up the code when it detects that you haven't answered a call.

Step 10-12: I think that this is just another way to trick the game into verifying that you are Franklin. By dying, it forces the game to reload but the director's mode keeps the game from fixing itself.

Step 13: The game is still glitched into thinking that you are both Michael and Franklin, so you are spawned back into Michaels house.

Step 14: This save is just so you do not have to redo all of the other steps. It is not a required step.

Step 15-19: This step is to get you partially online while still remaining in the offline mode. It makes that last step of SP to MP possible by allowing you to retry loading into online.

Step 20: I'm not sure why you have to answer the call, but maybe it's to keep Franklin performing an action while moving over to director's mode.

Step 21: You need to enter director's mode to enable the fast travel feature.

Step 22: I think changing the time of day makes it to where a specific movie is playing when you enter the theater and changing Franklin's clothing makes the game save him differently - removing his code from Michaels.

Step 23-31: You need to be in the movie theater because it creates a long enough buffer between steps 27 and 28 to be able to actually perform them. Going back to the casting trailer any other time generally goes by faster or doesn't provide the loading circle at the bottom of the screen.

Step 32-38: Going to creator mode will allow you to go into GTA online. You need to disconnect your internet when joining so that it will partially kick you out, but reconnect it so it brings you back in. Joining a recent activity is what tricks the game into allowing you completely in GTA online though, and what allows you to retry searching for a session when it says you can't join one.

Step 41: My guess is that "A Titan of a Job" is the only mission that glitches out enough to work with this or because it puts you in the correct spot on the map.

Step 42: Since the game is already pretty glitched out by now, and because the previous steps enabled SP to MP, declining the alerts to switch characters no longer work. It does, however, keep you from being brought back to offline mode.

Step 43: Doing this temporarily brings you out of the offline mode and back into it. It helps solidify the SP to MP glitch by allowing you to safely reload your game into another session without breaking the glitch.

Step 44-50: The dartboard allows you to be doing in action in the game while actively trying to leave it. For whatever reason this bugs the game out and keeps you able to continue the glitch.

Step 50-52: No idea why these are required steps

Step 53: Since the casino was not coded for offline characters, the tokens stay frozen for them. You can't get any more and you can't lose any more, but you can keep getting money from the ones you have.

I'm probably drastically wrong on some of these steps, but these are my thoughts on how this glitch works. Generally I'll probably stick to less complicated glitches, but this is the first one that came to mind. Longer glitches are also more complicated to understand, so it's interesting to try and see how and why they work.

I see the same questions asked every day on this sub. So I will try to answer as many as I will remember here. If I left anything out please leave a comment. It would help if this was pinned, otherwise, I did that for nothing, but anyways here we go.
1 - What PAID menu should I get?
Impulse or Disturbed. Disturbed is easier to buy, also Imulse has recovery disabled and Disturbed standard is down by 6.5.2020. People in the comments have recommended some other menus too. Check out the comments.
2 - What FREE menu should I get?
If you ask me none. I used Sylent for like a week and recovery options are terrible, but I have to admit I wasn't banned. Kiddion from what I heard has decent recovery options, but you will get banned. Just spend like 10 bucks on a better menu.
3 - Can I get a recovery on Xbox ONE or PS4?
Short answer: NO
Long answer: No, but I think you can get some offline mods. Guys, you have GOOGLE!!!
You can mod PS3 and Xbox 360 if you jailbreak it.
4 - How do I avoid getting banned?
Drop money only to people you know in an invite-only session. If you really have to troll use every protection your menu offers you. First RID spoofer and if I was you I would change my Gamertag too, just in case someone messages rockstar later.
5 - What is recovery?
Recovery is when I log into your gta online account and launch the game with my menu injected. Then I use the casino or nightclub method to give you a ton of money. Watch this video to learn more about it.
Also everyone who is skeptical about giving their account to a stranger, just change a password. And there is literary NOTHING and I repeat NOTHING in your rockstar account that anyone would need.
6 - How do I buy a menu.
Impulse: you need to buy it with bitcoin sadly.
Disturbed: bitcoin or message their dev on discord. He hasn't responded to me so I bought it here.
7 - Is dropping money safe?
Safe or not, it's a waste of time and you get these annoying rockstar messages. I've been dropped a lot of money through 3 years of playing this game before starting to mod and never got a ban. Just do it at your own risk.

I think that's all. Comment if I forgot anything important and please folks scroll for 2 seconds before asking a fucking question that's been answered like 10 times in the last hour.
EDIT; To be honest I don't give a shit about Kiddions and if you got banned or not, I'm just getting all the posts other people made into one. But what I do give a shit about is people posting "What free menu should I get?" every 5 minutes without scrolling down for 2 seconds to find your answer. Download whatever the fuck you want and risk getting banned or not getting banned. I don't give a single fuck.
EDIT2: This post is more posts made by different people combined into one post. I haven't tried kiddion's I'm just telling you what literally everyone is posting here. The only free menu I ever used is Sylent and I can confirm that I wasn't banned. The only paid menu I ever used is Disturbed. I can stand behind these menus because, to be honest I kinda miss some features from Sylent, but recovery is the most important thing in a menu, if you ask me. Sylent just fails there completely. Thanks for everyone's comments. I know the pain where there's nothing in your PayPal and you just can't afford a paid menu. If you like Kiddion's use it, as we learned in the past days even the best of the best can break and cause massive ban waves. Use whatever you want, just be careful.

Okay, backstory: So about 1 month ago i was playing gta online and i seen that one ceo started up a client job, as he made his way to steal the gold from the bank in Sandy Shores this other guy (the stalker we'll call him) spawned right beside the bank and tried to steal the gold.
I seen this and thought i'd help the ceo who started the client job out, but "stalker guy" walked out of the bank and was killed by cops.
A war ensues from the two players so i see my opportunity to go off radar, swoop down to the gold in the middle of the street and deliver it to the drop off for a nice reward (you may say its scummy and i agree, i dont ever do it at all, just this one time i thought "fuck it why not" )
So i leave the session soon after as i was going offline, for weeks then stalker guy keeps requesting to join my friends crew until finally... he's in my session and tries to ghost org kill me in his mk2 while i was in the middle of a casino prep, i then get invited to my friends arcade and the stalker dude starts messaging me all about how im a "coward" and such.
My only question... is there any fucking way i can prevent this guy from following me 24/7, i know its a game and all but this dude has dedicated weeks to try and join me just to kill me, yeah...
Any advise would be appreciated.
EDIT; so i got it wrong... it was him who started the ceo mission but still fucking hell, harassing me and my friends for weeks on end because one interaction in a video game is a bit extreme.

Made a Friend

So, a while ago I took a chance and hired some low level, like 20 or smthng. Let him fly my buzzard, and avenger, and took him on a gunnery tour of downtown Los Santos in the back of my Technical Custom.
Had a blast, and knocked out a shitload of missions!
But eventually I got sick and fucking tired of grinding because it's a shitty fucking nightmare and this game sucks dick (because you have to be grinding all the time to buy all the stupid overpriced bullshit so they can sell their microtransactions [this community really needs to take a good hard look at what the Battlefront fans accomplished with BFII and pull their heads out of their asses and do the same here]). So, I quit playing for like a month or two, dude kept messaging me but I was just so sick of grinding so I never jumped in. I even missed the casino update money exploits which could have saved me from needing to grind anymore but honestly fuck that shit. I was so sick of grinding and that'd just be grinding something else more lucrative and the bottom line is I shouldn't fucking have to. You should be able to reasonably expect to unlock all this shit just by playing the game, a reasonable amount and unlocking everything by completing story based missions. So the dude told me about that and I was like, "Nah, fuck it, I'm tired of GTA."
Honestly, if it didn't have the name GTA on it I would've thrown any game like this in barbeque a long ass timed ago. The only reason I don't is cause the name and that GTA is one of my favorite franchises up unti that abomination IV and this griefgrind shitshow. But because of that I keep coming back and trying to enjoy myself here.

Got Trolled by a Low Level?

So I'm finally back for a little bit. And I've been trying to glow up some other low levels but every goddamn time I offer jobs they get rejected even by fucking level 5 and 10s! It's fucking insane, dumb asses.
Well I finally got a guy to accept the offer today, a level 20 or something and I tried to do some missions with him. Sent him a text from my bunker to meet at Paleto Bay. My stock isn't topped off quite yet so I leave the bunker after stocking up weapons and call in my Savage. Check the map and the dudes not on his way. He's sitting still. Ok fine he's in the little town by the lake so right over the hill from me. I'll just go and pick him up.
By time I'm in the air, dude has left the area and is headed South on the freeway along the East side of the map toward the city. Fuck that, I don't wanna get shot down by every asshole out there. So I have to catch up to this dude and land in front of him on the freeway and he ignores me. I think he got killed somehow, maybe cops. But he respawns on the other side of the fwy, I fly over there and try to land again, he's still ignoring me, steals a car and takes off so I fucking killed him to force him to stop then landed where he spawned again. This time I hop out and run around. The dick runs and jumps in the pilor seat before me, fuck. Ok whatever I'll fly copilor and run missiles, maybe he'll be ok at flying for a headhunter mission.
I don't know if it was a glitch or bug or what but my character jumps out as soon as he takes off and he doesn't come back for me! Fucking fucks off with the chopper. Ok so what, maybe he'll go get the targets anyway. I'll steal a car and go the other way, as long as the mission gets done I don't care. He fucking crashes the goddamn chopper. UGh!
So I get another, try to go get him but hes downtown LS now so fuck that, I ignore him kill the targets save the day. He's dead weight. I go back to try to pick him up later. Seems like every time I get this asshole in the fucking bird theres a session wide activity, or a cooldown from someone else's VIP work blocking me from launching my own. All of which is turbo bullshit by the way. Fuck you so much Rockstar, I don't give a fuck if someone else is doing VIP work, I get it if we can't both at the same time by why the fuck should I have to wait for a cooldown when their work is over??? People can ignore the VIP work if they want to and most do most of the time so it's not like I'm forcing constant work on anyone else. Fuck these guys this game is fucking constant bullshit.
So I can't get a mission going because there's constant bullshit going on in the session. And whenever there's not I can't get this prick in the fucking bird! I pick him up in a car and take him to the helipad. He starts a shootout with cops just to fuck my shit up, then he doesn't even get in! Takes the car and fucks off after I take off. So I kill him again. He was in my Technical so I have to pay for that shit. Land again, he's not getting in. I finally get him in but he's started a shootout with cops again. I try to kill them as I'm taking off blow us both up. Get him back to the bird again, he's started a shootout again, so I take off and just fly away to evade the stars before launching the mission but there's two fucking yachts in the water and I get shot down by AI??? You fucking name it. The amount of time I'm dicking around with this guy I could've made 200k just on VIP work! Not to mention I only needed to kill like 10-15 minutes to do a bunker sale which all this has distracted me from.
The whole time I've been texting him. Like I said before "Meet at paleto bay for mission.", "Coming to you.", "Get in the chopper", "How many times do I have to tell you to get in?", "STOP shooting! So we can lauch this mission without the cops fucking up the bird just taking off!!!", after we got shot down by the yacht I texted him "I NEED you to stop messing everything up for 5 minutes!". Finally he says, "Ok." Finally! JFC!!! I get him in the chopper, he doesn't fuck around, I land on a rooftop, tell him we have to wait 3 minutes to start the mission cause of some other bullshit, he waits patiently like a big boy. I tell him to get out of the door gun position and get in the cockpit so he can shoot rockets and get kills, he does it, we start head hunter take off and just as we're getting to the first target he goes offline!
I guess he must've just been trolling me the whole time and I was stupid for even trying to actually get him in on missions. Should've just ignored him altogther as soon as he wasn't convenient. But goddamn. Whenver you're not getting griefed by OPs, you apparently get trolled by obnoxious little shit low levels you're trying to help out???
Mayber he just didn't feel like doing missions. Ok. Then don't accept a job offer! That's what they're for!
Fuck all that shit dude. I was so done.

But Then...

I tried one last time. Ground out a sale and some VIP work on my own for a while. Then I checked the leaderboard and saw a lot of new low levels in the session. Offered jobs, one accepted. Ignored her and did Hostile Takeover first. Then I got a Hold the Wheel vehicle after that was over and she showed up randomly in a buzzard to cover me which was cool. Although nothing happened. I was heading North up the PCH and when the time was winding down she flew ahead to my bunker and went inside. I met her there, launched a sale misssion. One of few I've done with a partner, I aways sell low with just one shipment. So I'm planning to fly the Savage, or have her do it for Close Air Support. But then we got slapped with some bullshit and the game split it into two shipments even though it's such a low amount it always does one, just because there were two of us! God damn I fucking HATE THIS GAME. So there went support. It was that mission where you get a signal jammer if the Insurgents stay close. So of course she takes the fuck off, leaves me behind and sends out the global signal so we're fucked now. God damnit! I was pissed.
What I noticed was that her truck was way faster than mine even though they're both the same truck. I kept wondering how the fuck she was shooting ahead of me and I couldn't keep up even with my pedal to the medal and then I realized the game was fucking cheating! Just magically buffing one of the car's speed for no reason just to fuck us up. And of course the associate's truck is the one with the buffed speed. Because if it was the CEOs obviously they would automatically slow down for the associate to protect their sale. Associate's not gonna give a fuck, they're just going to take off if you give them a magically faster truck. WHich she does.
There is never any end to rockstars jerk off bulshit it is fucking sickening!
We wind up getting attacked by a fucking lazer or hydra or something. I get killed but she makes it. So I've lost half my sale! Then when she delivers the truck, it gives us that stupid fucking bullshit, "You have to leave the area" shit for no reason except to fuck us up a little bit more. And the dumb asshole isn't leaving the fucking area! They're just staying there, shooting it out with the cops! I had to go down there and KILL her myself just to get her out of the area!!!
So I text her what the fuck that was and she says she doesn't speak english. Ok maybe she doesn't and she's using google or smthing and she just didn't do it for the mission brief, I don't know. Whatever. Ok so I call in the Savage, and launch head hunter she actually plays ball and we make some money. After I'm heading back to the bunker to do missions up North, away from the other players. She bails over PCH, and then I land and see what's up. We went swimming together? And showed eachother all out outfits??? It was a nice chill time that killed time till the cooldown was up. Then I called in the Avenger, lauched head hunter again, because it's a cool assed vehicle to do missions with but you need a crew and I never have one. She wasn't getting to go in the cargo hold and get on the gun so I landed, she hopped out and started shooting it out with MerryWeather on foot, I dropped some cluster bombs on 'em, we got inside the shack and killed the VIP. Then she jumped in the pilot seat of the Avenger and I said fuck it, let her fly and got on the gun myself. It's really fucking obnoxios that you don't get objective markers in the Avenger's hold but as long as she points the bird at the bad guys I can pick em out visually on my own. She was dropping bombs, did pretty good, actually took out a vehicle with them though I still had to get the target with the gun.
Actually she probably would've gotten him with the bombs if I hadn't. Took me a while to find him on the gun cam and by time I did she was straffing him with bombs, just my direct fire got to him first.
Then we actually did Hostile Takeover on the ground with just a Dubsta 6x6 which was supprisingly fun. Kinda dumb that when you attack from the air it takes out all the badguys that usually spawn at the altruist camp except the five with the briefcase. So I was supprised by how much more resistence there was. We drove through 'em all the way to the back, I parked with my side facing away from the biker gang so I think she got wasted as soon as she got out. But I had cover, took out the bikers but wound up getting killed by Altruists coming up behind me. She spawned at the gate of the camp and I spawned outside the wall on the opposite side. So she got in first, got the briefcase, and got in the truck. Then she actually waited at the gate for me as I ran halfway around and hopped the fence where I could escaping the cops. We took off in the truck accomplished the mission.
Then a level 700 showed up in one of the weaponized heavy remote turreted armored trucks right near the last objective marker at the vinyard. We had crashed a limo in a river bead and were stuck under the bridge she was parked on top so we had cover. I figured we were about to get griefed so I got my MKII marksman rifle out and took a peak and she was just flipping us off haha!
I guess I'm dumb as shit so I decided to start some shit with her and killed her anyway. I was actually kinda kicking her ass with the marksman rifle, definitely got some good kills. Then she got a Oppressor MKII, motherfucker, and killed me. Then I blasted her off it with the Atomizer! I got it to stop getting griefed and I have been griefed several times since and haven't been able to hit shit with it, at least not those fucking OPs so this was a first for me. Killed her again with the rifle when she respawned, then took off with a stolen car. Made it almost all the way to the airstrip (I was going to talke a chopper to Mount Gordo Facility to escape), before she caught up and took me out with... a Buzzard???? With lockon missiles, what the whole fuck!?!?!? I can never kill anyone with the buzzards lock on missiles! Even an NP fucking C walking at brisk pace and those missiles miss every time! But somehow whe she shoots them they can nail me in a cop car at top speed!
Whatever, I respawn and start knocking her around with the Atomizer which is hilarious, but doesn't cause her to crash. Eventually she kills me again. I respawn and knock her out with an RPG. Jump in a helo nearby and take off for Paleto Bay bunker, skydive out over the bunker, halo land on it and I'm gone! With a healthy handful of kills against the lvl 700 that I started shit with.
All in all one of very few days I've ever played this game and not wanted to fling my X-box out a window. My associate took off around the time the griefing started, but added me on XBox Live, as did the lvl 700 who also texted me gg. Good day. Glad I didn't give up after that low level troll put me through the ringer.
Although the game is pretty much desinged to suck, its bascially Bullying! The Game! Every day you play any game should be a good fun time like this was at the end. But should be like that the WHOLE time. The fact that this was an exceptionally good day when it should be standard means this game still sucks dick.

https://reddit.com/link/dc5e76/video/1kg0eedp22q31/player

So I'm coming back to GTA:O this weekend after a year away from it due to life and all the accoutrements that go with it (and when it has finally finished installing!).
I left after Doomsday was in full swing and then completely missed After Hours, and from a cursory search, it doesn't sound like I've missed much. Is there anything which is compulsory / mandatory for money making, or is the usual rotation of crates / IE and MC / Bunker with VIP jobs in between still the go to? I'm interested in splashing out on a few of the vehicles to keep my garage themes going and I think I'll be getting rid of a few of my old vehicles which have just sat there not being used ever since I bought them. I'm still reading up on how exactly I can set myself up in the cheapest way to start on the new heists.
I have:

Just North of $16 million cash ($16.6million from Social Club) and what's left of the stock of Elegy Retro Customs that I made before I went offline ;) (which will probably result in about $18million after getting rid of them)
An office, 2 Large Warehouses and a Small (for special cargo)
I/E Warehouse (as far as I can remember, I spent ages setting it up for repeat high end cars and was doing this for a bit and it's a fairly chilled $240k an hour)
Fully upgraded Coke Business (Downtown LS one)
Fully upgraded Bunker (Farmhouse I think)
The usual essentials like Hydra, Oppressor, Buzzard (and a random Valkyrie which I bought when I was drunk or something). I also have essentials from Smuggler's Run / Gunrunning / Doomsday such as the Akula, Hunter, Deluxo, Avenger, MCC, APC etc which are all fully upgraded to my knowledge.
A full CEO Garage full of cars modded to my liking which I don't really want to get rid of (except maybe a few when I finally get online this weekend, but I do have a floor full of race cars which were the best at the time of Gunrunning / Doomsday / Smuggler's Run (X80, T20, Vagner, Nero Custom etc. - is there a new fastest super or can I safely get by with what I have? - Nero Custom tank for demolition derby type races and Vagner for actually winning stuff.)
A maxed out yacht (the one with the canopy over the top deck for doing that VIP mission without getting fisted from above)

I don't have:

Anything from AH / Casino.

I'm not fully up to speed on the new Heists yet and most of my mates that I used to play with have stopped playing ages ago leaving me alone. I'm used to grinding CEO stuff on my own in crew / solo sessions and do everything like MC sales and bunker sales with one vehicle, or two if I'm feeling ballsy in a public lobby. I'm still in my crew so I can safely get into friendly lobbies.
How much would you reckon I'd have to fork out to get set up comfortably with a penthouse / get set up for the new heists and content? Is there anything new which I can drop into my money-making rotation?

Alright, so i'm gonna explain the situation. Basically, i just can't play GTA Online since around the time of the casino update's release. When i open the game, it automatically connects to the social club in offline mode and throws me right into single player. When i try to connect in game, it says that i'm not connected to social club (which is impossible to do because i can't activate online mode for some reason) and when i try to start up online from steam, the game just says that the servers are down even though I KNOW THAT BASICALLY EVERYONE IS PLAYING, YOU CAN'T FOOL ME ROCKSTAR.
I completely re-installed the game and i have absolutely no mods. So what's the problem? Can you help me fix it? Online is basically the one thing i want to do in GTA V.

LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK DOWN BELOW!
Properties:

I would like to suggest that property furniture is separately picked out by the player. For example, in the office a player may want the desk chair, assistant model, and walls from the old spice: warm style, the window shades, glass walls, hallway furniture, desk perimeter tables, and the boardroom cabinets from power broker: polished, and the glass cabinet (the wine sits on top of this), the couch and chairs, and desk from the executive style, the same idea would apply to penthouses and possibly other properties like the facility & hangar where furniture is present and multiple styles are available. I'm sure it would bring great pleasure and satisfaction to me and many others in the community to be able to tweak their properties to perfection. I understand that there is an unused shop by the name of larss & elbo that I come to believe is a high-end furniture store, it could be implemented into the game to "Buy" the furniture from. Additionally, there could be different brands of furniture and appliances, for example, the pc and laptops in properties could be a different brand or type of computer instead of the regular ifruit tech, also the stilt houses have 2 different interiors, allow the player to pick either interior for their stilt houses.
Add a home system in the interaction menu, so players could control the radio or tv without having to interact with them directly. Maybe even have control over the level of lighting, or if they have the right type of shades, allow them to be closed or opened to view the outside of LS.
In the office instead other there being a gun locker and safe in the walls behind the players desk, have the closed room behind the assistant be opened up as an armory to view every weapon the player owns, and the room across from the 3 laptops be opened as a vault and have it filled with cash depending on the funds in the players bank account.
The possibility to own a couple more properties, with all the new cars that will be dripping out every Tuesday, I feel horrible having to sell a good car that I want to keep to make room for a new car and I'm sure others feel the same.
Unlock the balconies in properties, like at the penthouses or stilt houses. Make it so that we can walk out onto the balconies instead of just looking through windows.
Pets being in players apartments and houses/adding animals to GTA online.
More tv shows and movies, or more episodes to existing series. More than just one video game on the office tv, and ability to play video games on TVs in other properties.
Open up the mechanic's area in the back of garages.
Make menus for property radios and TVs so that instead of guessing what channel or station the player is selecting, they can instead use the menu to quickly and easily select their favorite channel or radio station when directly interacting with them.
If mansions or more apartment/penthouse properties are added in future DLC, allow the purchase of extra rooms, like a pool or home theater.
Make the camper available for purchase as a mobile home property.
Make yacht more individually customizable, able to pick out all tents, pick colors and patterns separately, pick helipads, pick individual lighting. Color options wouldn't be limited, it would include all colors. Pick which helicopters and boats are stationed. Open up yacht engine room. Open up the 3rd-floor front exterior.
Add more room for yachts.
Fix interior inclined windows or remove inclined windows on the yacht.
Let doors inside yacht close.
Let security gates in the bunker close and open.
Add more rooms in bunkers.
Let players pick the paintings in properties.

Big downloadable content:

A DLC that would be based mostly on water, it could be business based or heist based. I understand you must get plenty of emails regarding a naval-themed DLC but I would at least like to pitch in my thoughts, I suggest first that either both or one of the two following watercraft be included and available for purchase: 1. The aircraft carrier or a variant of the aircraft carrier that would include aircraft and watercraft storage, a living quarters, an armory, and possibly a section where a battleship (either visually in game or said to be farther out away from the coast) would be ordered to bombard or strike a small section of the map. The explosions would be smaller and less damaging than the orbital strike but there would be 2-3 at once. 2. Bogdan's submarine or a variant of it, it would include mainly the same basic rooms but the aircraft and possibly watercraft storage wouldn't be available, which is why I noted that both could be included. Both would be able to move around the map in a similar fashion as the galaxy super yacht, and both would be own-able at the same time. Second, MK.II weapons and weaponized/non-weaponized watercraft. For the MK.II weapons, I would like to see the grenade launcher, minigun, RPG, sweeper shotgun, micro SMG, and ap pistol. These are just suggestions, you can use whatever weapons you feel should be upgradable. For the weaponized watercraft, two could be variants of the tug and dinghy, the dinghy would have a minigun on the front and the tug would have a huge cannon on the back and miniguns on the sides, maybe a walk-in interior could be opened up on the tug with cannons and miniguns in it. Maybe one of the new ships could be a pirate ship (more on that below), but I'm sure you all would be the experts in finding small warships to put into the DLC. Now depending on if this becomes a business or a heist will vary the features put in: 1. Bogdan's treasure: a small heist could be included involving Bogdan finding an old treasure map and recruiting a team of players to go out looking for the treasure whilst fending off multiple factions of enemies like Merryweather, the army, the FIB/IAA, and maybe the gangs of San Andreas (vagos, ballas, the lost mc etc.) that have also caught wind of the treasure. The heist would be available from the screen in the players facility (it bothers me that there is empty space on the screen when its just the 3 doomsday heists) or from a small island base, some of the freemode setups would include getting various naval ships from one of the many factions to use in mission setups to look for more clues, gather information, or follow the map through sonar or other navigation/detection methods. The finale would include the players finding a cave leading into a cove with a huge pirate ship filled with gold (think the goonies) but on the way there, players would have to fight through the multiple factions that they encountered in previous sections of the heist, at the very end they would blow a massive hole in the side of the cove exposing the ship to the outside of the map and sailing it away in a cinematic cutscene. 2. Marines and pirates: a business similar to the bikegunrunning would be available to the player, on the maze bank foreclosures website a cove (think Hitler's underground cove dock in sniper elite 4 where you kill him or that submarine lair in mechanic resurrection) would be purchasable to the player. Inside of the cove would be the regular rooms like an armory, living quarters, and the main business room, but there would be multiple closed off manufacturing sections that could be unlocked through "Purchasing" them, the computer inside would allow upgrades to be made to each section they're in. The player would gather supplies based on what section they're in, for example, if the player were resupplying the forge, they would go out and use sonar to look for lost gold that could be at the bottom of the sea and bring it back, or steal gold bricks from a shipment on land and bring it back to be melted and sold (like in story mode). A rare resupply encounter could be to steal a pirate ship from Merryweather or the IAA/fib and bring it back. The small island could be where the base of operations is located, or gates and doors would be added to the side of rock walls on the map along the water with a valve hatch being located above for on-foot entry. Bogdan's submarine variant could be stored in here as a moc/avenger type vehicle, while the aircraft carrier is placed outside wherever the player has it.
The nightclubs are opened up and either be a small business headquarters for trafficking or a hang out spot with a couple minigames, perhaps there could be different kinds like the hen house be a strip club and Bahama mamas be just a regular dance club or the player could choose what type of club the property would be. There could be a dancing mini-game be placed near a dance floor along with a fight club of sorts in the basement. It could also introduce Brucie as more than just a contact for bst or bring back a character from another title.
Another heist idea could be that the casino is robbed by the player and his team, they would be hired by Phoenicia rackman to rob the casino because it hasn't been paying its government taxes or something, so the players must take the money by force for her so that the IAA could be funded. The heist could possibly include some variants of that huge tunnel digger to reach the vault room, or the skylift, that could be used to pick up the entire vault and fly it away. It would be the fourth or fifth heist to appear in the heist room in the facility (if the naval-themed DLC above was used for a heist then this would fill the last remaining spot on the heist screen, though I would push for that DLC to be a business since I like the businesses). I don't think gambling would be a feature since it would probably be exploited or glitched, giving players insane monetary gain.
If the naval-themed DLC was used as a business then this heist could be the fifth heist on the screen in the facility. The altruists in Blaine County are taking over and assembling a small army of hillbillies, hobos, members of other various cults (children of the mountain, epsilon program), the O'Neil's, hunters, and possibly the lost mc to attack Los Santos and purge it, Phoenicia rackman has hired the players to infiltrate Blaine county and take back sections and loosen the grip of the altruists with the help of Trevor Philips, the finale is to infiltrate and destroy the altruist camp and end its tyrannical grip on Blaine county. The DLC would be more low-end than most of the recent content but I think some of the community would appreciate lower end content, stuff like pickup trucks and dune buggies and whatnot. Some of the heist vehicles could look like something out of mad max: fury road which I personally think would look insanely awesome, something like an armored bus with machine guns sticking out of the windows.
Civil service DLC: buy police stations and vehicles.
Continental hotel like from john wick.

Game modes & mini-games:

An adversary mode of hide and seek at night with all the lights out, like slasher but on a larger scale. Players would hide in a small section of the map like sandy shores, the player could stay in one spot for about 30 seconds before having to move away from that spot or else they would appear on the map. It could be played in vehicles too since it's in a much larger area, the hiders could be on Sanchez's and the seeker could be in a khanjali tank or weaponized Tampa.
A race mode idea could be something like motocross madness, where the maze bank arena is used for motocross races. There could also be an adversary mode that's a demolition derby or monster truck show.
Add more sports mini-games like bowling, archery, pool, table tennis, and triathlons, possibly add baseball too.
Add a 2 player hunting minigame.
Make official creator props and adversary modes for games such as deathrun, car vs gun, ramp climb.
Let players play mission minigames as video games. Like the doomsday laser hack, and lesters fleeca heist maze hack.

Player customization:

Have there be a gym placed in ls where the player could train their character and upgrade their stats, like the gyms from GTA: San Andreas.
Add more customization for the player's phone.
Make more actions and taunts, its been a while since any have been added.
Make some of the clothing options for male characters available for female characters, for example, the bow-tie that can just be on the male character without the proper shirt or jacket, and make some clothing options for the female character available for the male character, for example, the golden cuffs from ill-gotten gains. Maybe let players purchase the dunce hat too.
Add clothes exclusive or only seen in story mode, for example, the visor that Amanda wears during tennis, franklin's skydiving outfit, Trevors dress, triathlon outfits. Some hairstyles could also be added, for example, Trevor's mullet and beard, Franklin's afro. Additionally, let hairstyles and clothing from holidays be available permanently.
In the character creator, allow the players to change the size of their characters female breasts or male genitalia.
The possibility of this is highly unlikely, but make a no shirt/bikini clothing option for female characters or at least just nipple tape, the strippers are partially nude during lap dances, also the strange blue nipples could be taken care of. I really don't see this being implemented but I see no harm in suggesting it.
Choker chains.
Let players do their own makeup inside their home.
Looping actions or idle actions.
Add backpacks. Something more than parachutes.
Add football helmets, grilled shades, headbands, fezes.
Let players put on duffle bags and other restricted mission outfits.
Let players purchase the wrestler masks.
Let players color and choose the decals for clothes.
Add earbuds.
Bandana’s from bandana masks be separate if the player wants it that way.
Flaming skull masks.
Platform shoes.

Returning content:

Having the little things like free mode money trucks, mechanic vehicle delivery, the fireworks that were placed on the ground, very rare crate drops that held unique items. I understand if this one is a little tricky because they were already in the game but removed, but they could be tweaked. The free mode money trucks could be put in as a free mode event where players go around and try to make the most money off of robbing the trucks (besides, last time I checked there was a tattoo related to robbing trucks, and me being a bit of an "I must have everything" kind of person I feel incomplete to not be able to get that tattoo). For the mechanic delivery, in the vehicle interaction submenu options, it could be set to if the player wants their car personally delivered or just teleported near them. For the fireworks placed on the ground, I would just like to see that re-added into the game, I never got the chance to get any before they were taken but I'm sure I and many, many other players would be thrilled to have them back. As for the rare items that were rewarded from crates, I propose that either the crates be added back with the rare items and past holiday items, or have the items be purchasable but extremely expensive, possibly both.
Bring back assassinating targets for Lester in freeroam.
Add climbing mechanics from older GTA titles and possibly advance it with parkour.

Radio:

When someone has a self-radio, make it so that its not affected when someone changes the radio or if you're the passenger and the driver doesn't have a self-radio station let the passenger listen to theirs, also, I always find that it's never the station that is picked for my moc/avenger, property radio, and sometimes my own personal cars. Additionally, make an option for self-radio in the clubhouse jukebox.
If the player has headphones on then have music playing while they are on foot and in the interaction menu the player could change the radio stations.
Let self-radio play in stores.
Let self-radio play in the nightclub.

Pause menu:

In the report options of a player, allow there to be more specific modder report reasons, for example, some option in a "Modding" tab would be: god mode, money dropping, blame killing, prop spawning, mass killing, organization kicking (where a modder kicks someone from their own organization and makes them wait the 30 or so minutes). Additionally, when a player dies and they are in the menu trying to report, they're kicked out of the pause menu when they die, so when a player dies they can't report, and when a modder is blowing everyone up constantly they cant report them. Have the menu stay open even when the player dies. Also, let players report modding from the social club in case they are kicked by the modder and didn't get a chance to report them.
Let players throw away money so that they don't have modded money.
Let players view how long their friends have been offline.

Business benefits:

Cargo running is slow to fill 5 large warehouses so maybe there would be an option to fill the warehouse in large chunks, say by 10, the player and associates would go find either a semi-truck across the map and go retrieve it facing aggressive enemies the whole way back, or possibly 5 vans with 2 crates inside each van. Another option could be to fill the warehouse completely by going around all of San Andreas grabbing semi-trucks with 10 crates, moving trucks with 5 crates, and small vans with 2 crates inside them, all adding up to 110 crates and the final crate after collecting the 110 crates could be one of the 6 rare special cargo crates. However the buy option would be extremely expensive like perhaps 500 thousand to 1 million depending on how full the warehouse is already, if the warehouse isn't completely empty then the chance to get a rare special cargo would be reduced but if there are already a couple rare cargo in the warehouse then the chance to get another one would only be reduced slightly.
Have an option for the player to hire NPC associates or prospects, they would have tiers like the strike teams in the facility, level 1 would be free, level 2 would cost $5000 an associate, and level 3 would cost $10000 an associate, and they would be paid half their hiring price periodically. That way players don't have to go from session to session hoping someone joins them. The NPCs would be able to help fight and pick up separate cargo crates, they wouldn't be able to take cargo vehicles, they would attack other players based on a setting the player would have for them like the targeting system in the interaction menu, they could target strangers, attackers, or everyone. They would always be by the player's side and get into whatever vehicle they get in. They also wouldn't be able to take sell vehicles by themselves so players would have to hope to get something like the titan or tug if they're full of NPC associates.
Make securoserv associate vehicles like the enduro and the dune buggy CEO vehicles too.
Possibly a progress bar or something in clubhouses and offices to let players know when they've filled the property with a product, cargo, or money "Clutter" so that they don't have to guess and check.
Let CEOs invite members from an mc.
Business to manufacture new weapons for the player and make ammo.
In an organization or mc, if friendly fire is on let members lock on to each other.
Ability to choose organization color if not already taken.
Increase VIP/CEO/pres limit.
Allow players to customize the look and clothing of NPCs in business properties, like the bartenders, mechanics, and assistants.
Allow multiple CEO work missions to be active at the same time.

Crews:

Let players join more than 5 crews.
Give crew leaders the ability to change the crew name when editing their crew, and crew leaders also don't have to level up to 100 in their own crew.
Crew emblems on more clothes.
Let players put crew emblems on guns.
Crew emblems in more properties.

Map expansion/immersion:

Possibly add a small island to the right side of the map. Not as small as the one avi Schwartzman hides on but not as big as a whole map, something with similar beauty and just a bit smaller than great Inagua island from the assassins creed: black flag game. It could be a base for the naval DLC, or maybe if the pirate ship gets added, this is where it would be stored.
Open up fast food places. Like in previous GTA titles, the player was allowed to walk into a restaurant and purchase food to regain health. Possibly also add in fast food vendors around the map for a hot dog or something to quickly replenish health, I understand we have snacks but I feel that it would improve the game, and what if we've run out of snacks?
Open pier carnival games.
More carnival rides, like the drop tower.
Let players buy snacks from places other than the office, facility, or stores.
Let players buy clothes and tattoos from shops along Vespucci beach and on the pier.
Make arcade machines playable.
Add ladders to more buildings to climb on or add a grappling hook.
Let players rob safes in the back of stores.
Have it snow more often.

Annoyance fixes:

Don't force players into cargo warehouses when a crate or cargo vehicle is delivered.
Make an option in mors mutual insurance to claim all cars from all garages
Make older accessories wearable with newer accessories. For example, if I put on original earrings with a lowriders chain, it will remove the chain or earrings
Let players rearrange bicycles in garage bicycle racks.
Allow certain contacts to be blocked from calling or messaging. For example, block ljt from calling about businesses, or block Simeon from giving players a list of cars to bring to him.
Allow the player to disable gang attacks.
Allow players to call the car that's in the moc from office.
Assisted havok landing.
Add an option to stop players from changing the tv or radio.
Let players acknowledge new options in clothing stores and mod shops instead of having to scroll through everything to get rid of the stars.
When exiting a vehicle, don't force the last selected weapon in the vehicle to be the selected weapon on foot.
Let players run in their nightclubs.

Weapons:

Let players buy MK.II ammo in the interaction menu, but they would be very expensive.
Melee weapons on guns (bayonet).
Allow the player to select multiple bomb types at the same time, for example, the incendiary and gas bomb could be selected, so the bomb would create fire and gas. They would only be able to pick one of the two explosive types: explosive or cluster. If they picked three it could be an incendiary gas cluster bomb.
Knuckle dusters on both hands.
Let players buy molotovs, the railgun, the stun gun, and airstrike flares (doesn't bring airstrike)
Lasers on weapons.
Flashbang, decoy, smoke grenades.
Dual wielding pistols.
Burst fire options on certain guns.
MK.III weapons would have branches.
Throwing weapons: ninja star, throwing knives, tomahawk.
MK.II melee weapons or just ammunation upgrades: spikes on the bat, flaming bat, and maybe projectiles like baseballs.
Add flamethrower, a heavy fire ax, sledgehammer, small shields for melee fights, sword, boxing gloves, crossbow/bow, kukri, chainsaw.
Add small sentry turrets that a player can call in for 1 minute before it self-destructs.
MK.II explosives: bouncy, cluster types.
Add cane and umbrella melee weapons that would also change the walk of the character to include the weapon.
Paintball gun for harmless firefights with friends.
Assault rifle with a grenade launcher attachment.
Emp grenades that would disable some explosives like sticky bombs, and jammers that could be placed on surfaces, including cars that would disable explosives until destroyed when shot or player dies.
MK.II tear gas with deadlier gas upgrades and canister upgrades like sticky, on impact.
MK.II grenade launcher with special grenades with fire, gas, cluster, and sticky, or on impact grenades.
Pulse detectors on guns, like thermal scopes but detecting heartbeats.
Add small drones that can be deployed on the ground or in the air and can be upgraded.
Ability to call in an equipment drop that has an upgradable riot shield and normal/MK.II-III ammo.
Add a device that holds multiple explosives that would activate with proximity, timer, or manual and launch 6 small upgraded explosives.
Add a helmet or scope that would allow players to detect electronics and explosives.
Add a sort of mini anti-air device that would explode rockets and grenade launcher grenades shot at players.
Stun grenades and mines that would act like a taser.
Small glass shields on guns.
Crossbow bolts with smoke or tear gas.
Scanner for footprints, in freemode it wouldn't matter unless the enemy used off the radar, it would be useful in deathmatch.
Multiple explosive upgrades: on impact cluster flashbang.
Allow players to purchase all ammo when in the interaction menu > inventory > ammo section.
Make the programmable AR purchasable
LMG Bipods
Make the golf club hide-able in the weapons lockers.

Vehicles:

Adding multiple modifications on vehicles, for example, the bodhi has options for vents, side steps, and headlight grills. I'd like it if I had the option to choose all three instead of just one.
If you're reluctant to let us own more properties, then make some of the unpurchasable and rare cars like the Phoenix or manana purchasable so that players won't feel too bad about selling them to make room for newer cars.
Add gogo monkey blista compact, space docker, and the blimp.
Let players customize or at the very least change the colors on pegasus vehicles (i know planes were allowed to be customized in the smuggler's run update, I'm referring to land-based pegasus vehicles).
Add rims that spin, like if there were a fidget spinner on the outside of the rim. Let tire designs be available on any type of rim, for example, the white walls of lowriders rims being on muscle tires.
Make plane windows tintable
Add more rims from cars with unique rims.
Roof options on the ruiner.
Assisted yacht helicopter landing.
Able to call bicycles from office or mechanic.
Speed racer type of cars with jump jacks and unique weapons.
Hot wheels type cars.
In the vehicle remote functions, let players roll their cars windows up and down.
Allow players to upgrade and customize the car that comes with the anti-aircraft guns.
Pegasus semi-trucks with trailers.
Add zeppelins and war blimps, like from guns of Icarus.
In garages or workshops, place a spinning display platform for a car to be showcased.
Let players transfer cars between garages without manually driving them.
Let players change the avenger propeller light color.
Colored sun strips on cars with sponsored sunstrips only.
Purchasable trailers for cars like the boat or generator trailers.
Let players put spoilers on the ramp buggy.
Let players modify the other 3 special vehicles in the vehicle warehouse.
Make the Speedo, Mule, and Pounder Custom more explosive resistant.

Contacts:

Ability to call Lester and have him make another players phone ring and not able to shoot before ending the call would take about 3 seconds to end it.

Job creator:

Make pipes in stunt races that can go underwater.

I feel like I'm in the minority here, but GTA V (offline) was sort of a let down for me. I was so excited and anxious for this game to come out since Rockstar announced it's development, but it just has not lived up to expectations for me. Here are a couple grievances I have with the game:
the map is huge, but not in a good way.

the map is extremely big, but it's more tedious than it is fun. I find myself dreading the 4-5 mile drives to get between places and find myself often calling cabs to avoid this (which inevitably costs money). Don't get me wrong, the scenery is beautiful to look at...once. After a while its the same old nothing separating bits and pieces of civilized land; rocks, mountains and dirt trails with little to interact with.

there is little-to-no interactivity with the map

the map, as aforementioned, is absolutely massive. It is huge and, again as I stated earlier, it is beautiful to look at. But it sucks seeing hundreds of buildings that have little to no interactivity. It is rare to find shops to rob, and even when you do, it is still empty and unfulfilling (i.e there are safes that serve no purpose other than decoration). There is massive and great architecture that you would love to enter and explore, but are not able to whatsoever. The mall is the most egregious example, where you would love to just walk in and take a stroll. It tantalizes you directly in the middle of the city with its imposing features, but it is merely a shell for your visual enjoyment; this is also directly applicable to the casino (gambling would be a great feature). I am also disappointed that we are not able to enter restaurants or the giant prison. It all just seems like a waste of space just to qualify as "the biggest map in a video game".

the lack or property purchasing

while this could have been included in the previous point, I believe it merited its own focus. I would've loved to purchase a new house for Trevor, or actually pick out the new house for Franklin, but the option was not available. I do not see why, seeing as property purchases are permitted online. The properties that you can purchase (businesses) are extremely boring and do not even offer incentive to purchase; the yield from ownership is so low, it did not make any difference whether I invested or not. My first purchase was "Smoke on the Water" with Franklin, and every time I would get a text from the employee I would sigh. The missions were essentially pointless, seeing as they didn't noticeably alter my weekly return on the property, so I was left thinking: why bother even do these tedious and irrelevant side missions? There was literally no reason to.

After two weeks of playing this game (beating it once and halfway through on a replay), I anticipated GTA:Online to be it's redeeming quality. I expected Rockstar to have an ace up their sleeve with the online aspect of the game. But just as the single player mode, online was just as disappointing. Again, here are my grievances with online:
the game modes, for the most part, can get boring really quickly

there are some game modes that I really like (the aerial dog fights, the cycling race down the mountain) but I do not find the modes that appealing. Deathmatch should've been good, but to me it just sucks. The sneaking around aspect was theoretically a great idea, but in action it is not that much fun. I find that people tend to randomly walk up behind me (even when sneaking). It seems like more luck than actual skill. I liked the GTA IV method where players were constantly on the radar and you had to tactfully work your surroundings to get the drop on them. Next would be the missions. I find myself doing the missions alone for the sake of not wasting time or having to put up with shitty partners. Being put into missions with members of the online community is a sentence I would not wish on my worst enemies. I find that they tend to sabotage or generally just want to run amok. A couple instances I've had are: I was the first person to attack the hippie van and steal the weed. My teammate, for reasons still unknown to me, decides that ramming my car and shooting my tires out, all while the other team is doing the same, is the best course of action for this mission. Instead of protecting the person with the package in a supplementary role, my teammate wanted to contribute to our loss. Another time I entered into the mission where you have to escort the banker from the airport. This sounds cool, a kind of Merryweather vs. bad guys adventure. Only, it did not turn out that way. The driver decides he's going to drive maniacally through barriers, pedestrians and traffic before the other team was anywhere even near us. Needless to say, his damaged vehicle did not last long and, as such, neither did the banker. I've also heard of horror stories, wherein players are at the mercy of one single teammate due to the teammate's insistence on running around aimlessly. The other teammates are forced to either quit the game (getting reprimanded somehow was brought up) or waiting until this teammate was done his adventure. The system seems flawed

the price you pay for bail/healthcare is exorbitantly high

I realize this is GTA and would never even think to complain about random players killing you in free roam, but it is frustrating to lose 3-4k by getting killed a couple of times after just doing a mission. You lose whatever it is you have made in that mission; your money is tossed away because someone decides they want to mess around. Messing around is cool, and I would totally be into it if doing so would not put me at risk of losing a substantial chunk of my money in the process. I mean, I want to save for a garage and house..maybe even some upgrades for my car or a helicopter. Saving money is pretty hard when any time one of the 15 opponents you are placed with sees your marker and kills you. I would be happy if this game would only make you lose what was on your person at the time of the death; thus, if you were smart enough or had time to go to the atm you would not lose anything, but if you were unlucky enough then you would be victim to losing money. I feel that risk would suffice, rather than immediately dropping my account from 35k to 28k in a matter of minutes. I also would feel much safer putting my money into stock, where the hospitals would have no access, but it appears that BAWSAQ is always down. Rockstar touted this game as having a completely community-dependant stock trading system, but this is all foreign to me. I have not, once, had the opportunity to buy a stock in online.

I do not want my disappointment misconstrued into me saying that this isn't a good game; it is a good game, it is just not what I expected. I expected more from Rockstar given the extreme budget, their history in producing stellar games, the 3 year production timeline and subsequent delay. This game just did not deliver, and in my opinion it is not game of the year.
And I apologize for the extremely long post. I did not mean for it to get this long; I just started typing and it got a little out of hand. The worst part is, I left out a lot once I realized how long this was getting. To aid you guys, I've sectioned each individual grievance into its own spoiler, in order to obviate a domineering wall of text. Thanks for reading guys and let me know what you guys think about the game, my grievances, or the GTA series in general.

GTAV let me down, on multiple levels. 8/10 just for execution alone though. Will play, for multiple reasons, but it isn't the best it could be, for the following reasons:
No actual underwater heists (see: Italian Job), no Mini Cooper heists (see: more Italian Job), nothing really felt like a movie except a couple things were similar to a couple things in Heat (once in a courtyard, after you exit the building involving the cell phone hack, and earlier on with the armored truck, which didn't even feel like the movie as much as it parodied it...) No dead president masks and bank robberies (see: Point Break), no nothing. No Oceans Eleven, no Mission: Impossible, no Ronin, no Snatch, no nothing. So much potential for these heists, and the very best they could do was the opening Jewelry heist. The whole game should have played like that one mission, but it just went downhill from it, which says a lot after you realize there were only about 3 actual heists in the game.
As a GTA game, it didn't live up to itself either, aside from it not living up to the heists, I wanted choices, and to be FORCED to kill people I liked, because they abused me or betrayed me. I wanted to be mad at them, and angry, and emotional during missions so that I got emotionally compromised and messed up, just running through in a rage shooting everything. I wanted to feel for the characters, experience the betrayal. I wanted Lance to turn on me. I wanted Smoke to turn on me. I wanted Roman to die. I wanted people I had the potential to care about to abandon me, and I wanted to know that characters suffering and enjoy the ride. I wanted to be used by Dimitri. Instead, the only thing I get are people I hate forcing me to do missions, and the whole time I was pretty much just going through waiting to have enough money to play around with stuff, and hopefully kill them off when it gave me the opportunity.
It's not that the missions weren't fun, they were. I enjoyed the experience, and I'll enjoy the sandbox, wobbly helicopters included. It just wasn't what I wanted though.
Non-story things I'm having a problem with are, for one, the Casino. Give us a big beautiful Casino and don't even let us go in, let alone rob it. Thanks a lot. Same thing with the motocross track. Give us an unfinished motocross track we can't fully ride on without wrecking, that's worse than the unusable go-kart track in IV at the abandoned theme park! My TV only had two channels, too, and all 3 or 4 times I stopped to watch it, only had the same two shows on, in very pixelated quality, so that's a let down. So many little things like those, and the unusable train which is scripted to show up at certain times, and the scripted traffic in missions, and every other little resource-saving thing that detracted from the experience. It all adds up, and gets on ones nerves after a while, especially the 3 kinds of cars spawning at a time. That and silly things that don't even make sense, like an inability to customize ATVs or bicycles, as if that would have even been a bother to make available.
It's a let down, plain and simple.
Don't get me wrong though, they included so many things in here that they did right. Tennis, for one. Haven't tried golf, but I heard it was okay as well. No basketball for Franklin, or batting cages, or hydraulics, or anything as fun as that, but you cannot have them all, I understand. I think they did a great job on this game, it feels fairly polished compared to IV and earlier games. Physics is fun, for the most part, everything feels pretty much right. I wish the garages were better, treat all of the cars as it does the special Elegy RH8, I wish the phone would take offline gallery photos to your lifeinvader and not automatically upload them, just little things that bug me, but for the most part, I think the game is very well made, and very enjoyable. Story aside, anything I have against this game is just me being picky, and that says a lot.
All of that being said, as I mentioned at the beginning, 8/10, and that's not considering any future multiplayer shenanigans, which would probably increase that score, but games should stand on their own without that aspect.
That's my post though, I said I'd wait until the credits were over and then be done writing, because I could go on all day about this, but yeah. Those are my thoughts. Anyone agree or disagree with them? Feel free to share and discuss.

Hi Rockstar Games,
Apparently you have 45 years worth of ideas for future GTA installments. Regardless, I present to you my brainstormed list for Grand Theft Auto VI. I know its my own wishlist for your next GTA game, but I'm sure about 98% of gamers would love these features in your next wonderful installment.
=====VEHICLES============================================= *Allow storing items/peds/dead bodies in a trunk *Offline: Allow each character to have a 10-car garage AT LEAST *Greater damage precision on transport (eg. side mirrors on cars, destroy a bicycle in half) *In driver seat camera view *In cockpit seat camera view *Pink Slip races *Ability to sell cars to dealerships *Rear parking sensor on modern cars *Heavy collisions may lead to airbag deployment *Customize: car decals\vinyls (midnight club style) *Customize: window tints, steering wheels and seats *Personalized plates *Bring back Nitrous Oxide (NOS) *Bring back the hydraulics from SA *Neon lights *More body kit customization *More detailed interiors, even if it is just better textures *Speedometer, petrol meter (optional) *Ability to fill up on petrol at gas stations (although doesn't run out unless you drive the entire map) *Car wheels stay rotated when exiting the car *Bring back: Leaving car engine on when exiting and running from car
*New driveable transport: +Horses..We should be able to steal/ride horses from farms like Red Dead Redemption +Rollerblades +Wheelchair +Canoe/Kayak! (1-2 person so we can river raft) +Surfboard (because everyone wanted to surf the water physics in Vespucci Beach) +Skateboard +Snowboard +Skis +Snowmobile +Snow Plower +Snow Coach +Wingsuits +Hang Glider +Emergency Helicopter (drops water) +Bring back: Hovercraft +Bring back: Seaplane/Seahelicopters +Bring back: driving trains/trams (for derailing ofcourse) +Bring back: more Bikie Motorcycles from GTAIV: TLAD +Bring back: Monster Truck +Bring back: Lawnmowers +Bring back: Go karts +Bring back: Police motorbikes +Detachable Caravans +More heavy construction vehicles
Crazy Vehicles +Unicycle +UFO +Jetpack +Stealth Bomber +Aircraft Carrier (in the sea with Lazers/Hydra. non-driveable?) +Space shuttle (lol!)
=====AI============================================= *More realistic AI during car crashes - people rush in to help and check if ok, people call emergency on phones, crashed victims ask for details or fight you, crashed victims check if other passengers are dead and panic if they are dead *More realistic traffic flow with peak traffic during morning/evening to and from the cities *Police dogs *No wanted level unless violent actions ARE ACTUALLY REPORTED. If I snipe one person from 500m away or use a silenced weapon at some hobo in an alley, the police should not know. THIS. *More realistic police respawns. Helicopters respawn too quickly... *Peds should pose or smile again like in SA when taking photos... *Disabled peds on wheel chairs and walking sticks *Peds use umbrellas when it rains *Police chase you if you speed past them at 150mph *Smarter AI so if a Ped hits you in front of police the police will arrest them not you when you retaliate *Police use tasers *Realistic peds that go home into their house or shop or walk their dog or meet friends etc. Not ones that drive up to their fake pretend driveway then get out of the car and walk away from their house to God knows where. Give peds real but simple lives. *Escorts\girlfriends - be able to call one to your safehouse or to hangout or something *Add kids (jokes!), however do add couples that hold hands...including gay ones *Paramedics actually revive peds and take them away *Hookers follow you on foot
=====ENVIRONMENT============================================= *Bring back Casinos *Bring back Gyms for working out. 9/10 people saw Vespucci Beach's outdoor gym and wanted to work out there *Bring back fast food places like Cluckin Bell and Burger Shot (to eat in) *Bring back gang territory wars *Have actual dealerships per car brand (Grotti Dealership) and also generic dealerships which sell many different cars (second hand). At dealerships you can purchase cars currently on the showroom, or browse the catalogue to purchase new cars to be delivered or test drive any (which lets you steal it really and kick that salesperson out of the car! instant 5 star though). THIS!!! *Car Auctions for expensive cars *More interiors *A dozen banks that can be robbed (maybe once per game day) ranging from small town banks to giant corporate banks (Payday-style) *An actual shopping mall with multiple shops *Night club interiors where you can dance/drink *Hotels where you can stay the night...with hookers *More realistic car counts in parking areas (not always empty) *More animals...to kill (whales, dolphins etc) *Public swimming pools. Can streak (instant 1 star). *Las Venturas/San Fierro *Realtime seasons (changes per game week) *Realistic environment events like house parties to crash *Actual in-game holidays/events (eg. Christmas) *Natural Disasters maybe (not like 2012 though lol) *Remove those goddamn indestructible trees and wooden fences etc ffs *Ski resort area with giant mountain (for new transport) *More hospital and more Pay and Spray equivalents *Dog parks *Arcades (bring back old GTA arcade machines) *More random criminals, don't make us feel like we are the only one *Jails - With three characters as the new norm, if one is busted let him serve his jail sentence, sentence in game days (1-6) depending on severity of crime. In-jail minigames shorten the sentence by one game day, meanwhile you can either play as the other two that are not in jail, try to jailbreak the other guy out, play as the guy in jail and make friends in the jailhouse or if all characters are in jail then you can attempt a prisonbreak to get all of them out. Or you can also pay bail. *Bring back Stadium minigames like Destruction derby *More than one purchaseable safehouse properties offline *Customisable main safehouse with personal gym etc
=====PLAYER============================================= *Ability to grapple pedestrians to use as a human shield (Bully-style) *While grappled allow the player to shove/throw a pedestrian or execute them *Ability to disarm an armed person and take their weapon *Ability to mug any ped *Ability to pick up/drag a dead body and hide it or...keep a collection in your safehouse lol *Ability to tie people up for kidnapping *Offline: taunt (eg. dance etc) *Offline: smoke, eat snack, drop weapons or cash. (eg. throw cash at a stripper or a hobo) *Have a strong female protagonist *Ability to sit down in the world! *Improve player communication with peds (bring back positive and negative comments from SA) *Bring back recruiting gang members *Bring back dating (date any ped, save her number on your phone) *Bring back fighting styles *Become a dirty cop (or lead character cop) - can arrest people and handcuff people, steal weapons from station and drugs (True Crime-style) *Ability to hang onto car roof while it moves *Ability to grab onto a moving car or helicopter *Ability to skitch cars whilst on bicycle! *Bring back ability to graffiti *Allow players to rappel down helicopters *Ability to walk/move while taking a picture *Inventory wheel for non-weapon items such as fishing rods, beers etc
=====PLAYER CUSTOMIZATION============================================= *Customize physical build (fat, skinny etc) through gym/eating but not RPG-like. So workouts get you slightly skinnier, eating Cluckin Bell gets you fatter. BUT it doesn't constantly change like in SA, only when activity performed *More haircuts *Keep dogs in game and allow customization *Layered clothing *Allow players to create custom outfits that can be renamed!
=====MINIGAMES============================================= *Gym Equipment Minigames *Bring back Burglar missions *Bring back all casino minigames - video poker, poker, blackjack, wheel, horse racing etc *Bring back paramedic and cop minigames *Bus driver minigames *Drug dealing minigames *Kidnap and ransom peds (hide in car trunk) *House raid missions (maybe as a cop) *Ice skating rink *In-jail minigames - survive *Table tennis, arm wrestling, beer drinking, pool, boxing, shooting, rock climbing, fight clubs, golf, basketball etc *Participate in competitions on the radio using your mobile phone *Lottery *Fishing
=====WEAPONS/COMBAT============================================= *Weapon wheel while in vehicle as well *Once attachments are purchased, weapons should be customizable at any time (eg. removing/attaching silencer) *For the love of God, remove the acceleration of the crosshair while aiming. This makes it feel weird and shooting ranges are impossible.
Weapons: +Flamethrower +Dildo +Brass Knuckles +Chainsaw +Machete +Grappling hook +Harpoon (no idea why it was not in GTA V...goes hand in hand with sharks)
=====OTHER EXISTING ISSUES======================================== *Need an onscreen arrow directions to allow us to play the entire game without any map or HUD (and not have to memorize the entire map) *Cars don't disappear when you turn around ffs *Stop spawning 50 of the same car in one area. *Custom music playlists, let us download mp3s illegally off the in-game internet and save them on our phone. The phone could bluetooth a custom playlist while in cars. *More violence please, let a ped smash through our windscreen lol *Players need something to spend their billions on. *Give us a semi-transparent zoomed out map so we don't need to keep pausing the game (Like you did in Midnight Club LA) *I personally spend 40% of my time looking at the minimap during car chases etc. Change this. *Remove other characters from changing outfits when not in play. If I dress Trevor nice, I don't want to take him back to the house again to change clothes because he got his dirty white shirt and hobo sweatpants back on
