Multiplayer in a Grand Theft Auto has been the stuff of dreams for gamers everywhere. Despite the game being released in just a matter of months the info for online multiplayer has still been pretty scarce. But now the floodgates have come flying open as PLAY Magazine preview this online frag fest. Some of the more important details include accessing online through your players phone, details on the different modes and confirmation of character customisation (though to what extent is yet to be revealed

Belic means "Warlike"
Times Squares big and covered in ads
In DeathMatch its confined to an area on the map to keep the action intense
In TeamDeath match four can sit in a helicopter/car, the non drives can shoot with any weapon they have, not just uzi/pistols
MAFIYA WORK consists off you being given simply missions as a group and having to pull them off i.e. recruit people, doing hits or there favorite find and dispose of heads
Team MAFIYA WORK is more competitive the Mafiya work but fundelmendaly the same thing
Cops n Crooks consists of one player being assigned as the boss while the other robbers protect him from the cops, they must take him to a secure location before he is killed.
Hangmans NOOSE is four players and consists of you having to protect Petrovic from the swat from the airport to a safe house
Free Mode is like single player with mates . Go anywhere do anything
On customisation the more you play the more you unlock so experienced players will have more items to choose from.
Team Dethmatch is relentless, you cannot relax
In HANGMANS NOOSE they tore down the runway in a baggage handler shooting at the SWAT- The writer said it was the funniest thing he has seen in a video game
They saw an NPC tagging a shop wall and another ped taking photo's, peds now have a purpose
they shot a rocket at the npc it destroyed the front of the shop leaving a hole in the wall and set the body flying through the area, eventually hitting the ground in a lifeless clump

    Yeah, as I thoguht, Cops and Robbers is interesting. I want to play that one >_>

    While not all the modes will support 16 player online, I hope some of the more fun ones can be played with only 2 or 4 people >_>

    You can have four people shooting in a HELICOPTER? How badass. Kinda disappointed in the Cops n Crooks things not just being like a vigilante type thing, but oh well. And Free Roam is a nice addition too.
