What the hell? I turn the Lazer’s homing function off, and freefire rockets at them instead, but again I narrowly miss, and hit another cop car. This is not going well.Īnother pass: more cop cars blow up, while the human players remain unscathed. Unfortunately, the rockets home in on the police cars instead, clearing a path for the delivery. I come in for another pass, this time sending rockets towards the cars in the midst of the chase. Hoping to hit the players, I let off a few rockets, and accidentally bring down two of the three helicopters unloading machine gun fire upon them. I fly over, and police are swarming the two vehicles performing the deliveries. If I kill these guys, there could be a fair chunk of cash up for grabs, and if nothing else, it will annoy them, which is apparently what I enjoy doing these days. On the way, though, a red icon pops up on the map, showing that a supply mission is taking place on a nearby hilly road. I jump into a Lazer and take off, my intention being to parachute onto the city’s pier and potter around for no real reason. Still wishing for GTA 5’s story DLC? GTA: Online’s The Doomsday Heist is out now, and it's the next best thing. This means other players can interrupt the journey if you’re unlucky, as your supplies pop up on the map for everyone to see. GTA’s business activities are the way to make big money in the game, and they require completing a bunch of supply missions before travelling across the map to deliver them on a public server. Recent events have challenged my growing sense of immorality, though. I don’t feel good about myself when I fly my Lazer over a highway and send a couple of rockets exploding into another player’s car, but I do feel something. These vehicles are sold with attached weapons for a reason, and GTA’s rarely been about politeness towards your fellow man.

The other thing is, this kind of chaos and player-created interruption is the essence of GTA Online, to some degree. Why am I doing this, when I hate other players who do this to me? Well, rather than take responsibility and chalk it up to an obvious personality problem, I’m going to go ahead and blame this on ennui towards modern life and a lingering sense of political uncertainty.
