Start a game of GTA 5 can be tedious, especially if it's online. This may be the only thing that has never been fixed by Rockstar Games (along with the many hackers) but over time players have developed strategies to optimize their connection to the game.
Right here, we will tell you about everything that is legal to do to speed up the connection to GTA. Other Internet users talk about other things but ask you to touch the game files or to install third-party software; in short, do not do it, it is not necessarily secure.
Connect faster to Online via Story Mode
It's quite simple to understand but it works! In order to optimize its connection time, going through the story mode then going online is faster. The technique is therefore easy:
- connect to story mode;
- escape /start, online, join a session (or a friend).
You will see that the connection time is much lower with this order. Obviously, it is recommended to stay on the game so that it loads in the foreground. Don't look at your PSN profiles at the same time or do an ALT+TAB on the computer to surf Twitter while waiting for the game to launch. This may slow you down or crash the game.
If you have time, launch the online mode directly then do another activity while waiting; a good strategy to revise or do your homework in a given time...
