Many players have been complaining on websites such as Downdetector and the GTA Online Reddit community regarding a variety of issues. The complaints have grown since the 1.42 update was pushed. The most common issue is found on older machines like the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. 

Unfortunately, Rockstar’s support website doesn’t include several of the more prominent issues, which means players would be unable to find the answers there most of the time. In this article, we will discuss how players can try to fix a few of the most prominent issues.

Check GTA’s Online server status

The server status is almost directly tied to the status of Rockstar’s general servers as well. It is the easiest way to find out if Rockstar’s game services are experiencing issues across the board. 

Rockstar allows players to check this by hosting a dedicated website where players can check the server status of all of its titles. So if players notice a general outage for one or multiple games, they can be sure it isn’t a problem on their end and will just need to wait for the developers to fix it. 

Check internet connection

If the servers are functioning properly but players still can’t log into or launch GTA Online, it might be an issue with their internet connection. To fix any potential problems, players can reset their router to fix the problem.

Contact the game publisher

If players are unable to find a direct fix for their GTA Online issue on the Rockstar support website, the best way is to report the issue directly to Rockstar. This kind of issue typically means that it is something players won’t be able to fix themselves, so reporting the issues and waiting is really all you can do.
