Day 1

What went right: I was able to download the 59 MB patch that unlocks GTA Online and install it. Also, on my second try, I was able to create AND save my first character.

What went wrong: Pretty much everything else, as expected. For some reason, despite being the creator/leader of my crew, I showed up as not being in a crew. My two attempts at doing the opening race (after the introduction) were unsuccessful, as I got stuck on "Starting Session" the first time, and "Waiting for Other Players" the second. After that, I called it a night on GTAO and went back to the single player game.

Day 2 (Wednesday)

What went right: I was able to log in with my created character and my crew tag was back!

What went wrong: The rest of it. I still wasn't able to "play" the game. It took me three attempts in order to connect to the Rockstar cloud server in order to load my saved character.

Day 3

I didn't try to connect and instead focused on the single player game. I've only got one story mission left to go, and my overall game progress is at 70.43 %.

Day 4

Rockstar posted a story yesterday detailing current issues with GTA Online and said that they expected to have a game update "as soon as tomorrow", which would be today. No word on whether or not that's been released yet.

As it looks like GTA Online will be much more playable very soon, I've started doing a little recruiting for the crew, and unchecked the "invite only" option in crew management. If for some reason we have too many trolls try to join, I'll just recheck that.

The update is out for the PS3, and will be out for the 360 later today.

Day 6

The 360 patch has been deployed and I can say that it seems to fix and drastically improve most problems that plagued GTA Online when it launched last week. 8-)

Verd - One of my friends/coworkers has joined the crew. Don't be alarmed if you see a guy you don't recognize, he's legit. He's the second Commissioner, along with you. 8-)

I trust ya. :) I need to try GTAO still. I've been trying to finish the 1p game before heading online. Just did the FIB building and Michael's subsequent mission last night. And the FIB guys had their talk with Franklin about Trevor. Interesting times...

You're getting pretty close, then. I finished it up last week. Once I got to a certain point, I couldn't make myself quit until I was done. :lol:
