Is Rockstar a joke? (Social Club)

I bought GTA V a few months ago and it took days to get working properly because the Social Club would never complete the update successfully. Finally after some forum posting I figured out a solution that worked. Played for a few weeks, quit for a while.

Last night I try to start again and cannot open GTA V (I want to play OFFLINE btw)... because I cannot sign into Social Club (which I never want any part of anyway). Try to reset password, email never comes. Open ticket with support and get no answer for 24 hours --- they finally send me an email and its in Russian.

Turns out my account was hacked/stolen and switched to Russian. I never got any alert, email, notice or anything that my account was broken into (how about an alert when your country of origin is changed to one 5000 miles away)?

So I manage to reset my account and get everything back to normal (I don't even want to play anymore at this point) and start up GTA V. Guess what. It needs another 700 MB update, that of course is failing.

I had this same kind of crap with GTA IV years ago. So... frustrating...
 
which OS? kinda sounds like you need a better firewall/ISP or something... I've never had any issues with SC but I understand the frustration.
 
Had my account hacked by Russians a couple years back as well. Took a couple days to get it back, but was annoying. GTA IV on Steam hasn't worked for me the last couple times I tried playing it, might be because of the account hacking, not sure, I should probably try again.
 
I had somthing constructive to say, but you just reminded me of how rage inducing social crap is, and now I cant even talk about it. Lets just be glad GWFL is good and dead.
 
i believe it's "GFWL" ,,,but I'm sure you knew that and were just typing quick out of hatred for GFWL 😀
 
Thanks for the heads up. I actually was considering getting this on sale at some point. Most likely won't bother now. No patience for shoddy inferior draconic BS tied to games.
