According to a popular Grand Theft Auto speedrunner, hackers have fully breached Grand Theft Auto online and can easily crash lobbies no matter what technical protection measures are taken by players to prevent them. While Rockstar Games’ online sandbox for Grand Theft Auto Online has evolved wildly, hackers have continued to be an issue. Over the years mod menus and cheats have plagued lobbies allowing hackers to instantly spawn items, blatantly harass other players, and even access IP addresses.

Online cheating has become an infestation and developers behind popular multiplayer titles like Call of Duty, PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS, and Destiny 2 have all announced big pushes to stop hackers from ruining experiences. Back in August, Activision confirmed its Ricochet anti-cheat system was in the works for both Call of Duty: Warzone and Call of Duty: Vanguard, which could help persistent the ongoing issue and possibly be licensed to other developers in the future similar to BattlEye and Easy Anti Cheat. Nonetheless, hackers have cracked their ways around anti-cheat systems and some franchises continue to suffer. One prime example is Battlefield 2042, as hackers were selling cheats for the multiplayer shooter ahead of its launch.

Posted on Twitter, popular Grand Theft Auto speedrunner DarkViperAU has stated his disappointment in Rockstar Games following a new Grand Theft Auto Online breach by hackers on PC, and particularly the lack of attention the company’s given to resolving the game’s ongoing cheating issue which evidently gets worse every year. According to DarkViperAU, hackers can now crash any lobby at any given point even if players are heavily secured by an expensive VPN or in a protected lobby in a public session. Previously, players could purchase VPNs to hide their IP addresses and evade hackers. This tactic now seems futile, as the speedrunner mentions that he temporarily will no longer make Grand Theft Auto Online content due to a new hacker breach that he believes will go unsolved because of Rockstars’ “incompetence.”

Modders can now crash the game even when you have a VPN and a protected lobby. I guess that ends the GTA Online content for now. Even when you invest hundreds of dollars into protections, nothing can ultimately fix the incompetence of @RockstarGames.

Grand Theft Auto Online isn’t the only Rockstar title infested with hackers and modders, however. Red Dead Online has had its reputation for having a different cesspool of ongoing cheaters since its initial release. These hackers have caused all sorts of frustrations, from creating scary skeletons to attack players to spawning illegal treasure chests and getting innocent accounts banned. Despite being a secondary, Red Dead Online was the only instance where Rockstar Games began cracking down on hackers, putting an end to those who were spawning KKK NPCs to grief other players.

Rockstar’s popular online game mode continues to lose players as hackers continue to turn its lobbies into dangerous playgrounds. It is unknown if Rockstar will ever put an end to its ongoing cheating problem but if pushed far enough, Grand Theft Auto Online could be completely secured even if hacking is far from solved.
