Weird, you sure it's not having to do with your internet. I remember I had to change my wireless internet settings only for GTA Online - every other game worked perfectly fine - and after that I've never had any issues whatsoever. That was back in October 2013. Though I was on 360, not sure how it would work on PS3.

Not my inernet. My connection is 100% and my speed is great for the area I live in.

Samen for me, but I had to change my DNS Code. Don't know why, but it helped.

Yeah, the online is terrible for me too. Doesn't connect at all. Maybe I should buy the game, though. That might be the issue. ;)

I think you need to calm down. You are talking about runner up goty here. Maybe they want you to upgrade to PS4 version. Has better grass too.

PS4 version is also shit. Long loading times, empty lobbies, getting disconnected randomly. I can play every online game fine, but GTA Online is trash when it comes to their servers.

That sucks. Atleast the pre release hype was something and we got some gifs out of it.

Never got around to playing GTAV's online but I heard about online problems. Hopefully the PS4 version doesn't suffer the same fate!

And yes I exaggerated the date, sue me. Still, this game shouldn't be having some horrible online issues a year after release. Dear god I seriously wonder how bad the game was when online launched.

I played a few months ago and there were no problems. Lots of annoying updates though.

Not your connection but rather the security around it maybe? Check your NAT or DNS settings as others have mentioned. Modems/routers come with built in firewalls nowadays and require specific settings under certain circumstance. If all else fails place the PS3 in the DMZ 'Demilitarized Zone' iirc. Been a while since I had to fiddle with that stuff so correct me if I'm wrong.

And yes you might need special settings for just ONE game.
