If you attempted to play GTA Online at around launch time, then the likelihood is that you either had trouble connecting to a game ( I know that I did) or even worse, losing saved data.  It took a while for Rockstar to fix the issues, though it now seems that the majority of troubles are over and you should be able to connect to games with no worry of losing any saved data.  I connected to GTA Online the other day and I had no problems, which was a relief.

As a way to apologise to fans for the ongoing problems that GTA Online suffered at round release time, the kind folks at Rockstar Games will be releasing the Stimulus Package direct to your in-game bank accounts.  The hefty sum that will be deposited into your in-game account is a whopping $500,000 to spend on whatever in-game goodies that you choose.  With so many gamers to be credited, Rockstar have stated that it may take up to 2 full days to make the rounds. So if you fire up GTA Online today to find no deposit, then fear not as it should make its way into your game by this weekend at the very latest.

Coming straight from Rockstargames.com, here’s the statement that was released:

Attention all Grand Theft Auto Online players, we have begun the Stimulus Package direct deposit into each of your in-game bank accounts. This GTA$500,000 deposit applies to all GTA Online players in the month of October 2013.

We expect that it will take up to 2 full days for the Stimulus Package to be fully delivered to the entire player base from October 2013, so please be patient if you do not see it appearing in your in-game bank account just yet. We will update this post on Friday when we expect all the GTA$ Stimulus Package deposits to have been completed.

Thanks go out to everyone for their continued patience and understanding while we worked through these issues, and we can’t wait to bring more into the world of GTA Online. On that note, stay tuned for more details on the Beach Bum update soon along with upcoming Social Club event announcements and more here at the Newswire.

Later this month a free ‘Beach Bum’ DLC pack will be released for GTA V, which will add new weapons, modes, vehicles to be used in both the singleplayer and online modes.  You can read up on the details by clicking HERE.
