As per Tez2, the gaming company found the process of operating dedicated online servers to be ‘cost-prohibitive’. While there was not much clarity around the game for which this decision was made, many arrived at the conclusion that GTA Online was at the center of it.
Tez2 further stated that players might encounter some ‘foul activities’ in the multiplayer mode of GTA Online. The gaming studio, however, has taken some effective steps to control these violations and that should reflect in the game.
Spider-Vice, another prominent GTA insider, has spoken about how the GTA 5 multiplayer mode works on a hybrid P2P framework. He further stated that the gaming company has used this model very successfully so far for a bunch of activities like transaction processing and player matching.
