not surprising - the game industry is absolutely notorious for cutting corners. didn't know they cut corners this much though.

will r* fix it? maybe, especially since some person literally did half of the work for them. But given R* is a large company, this probably wont be fixed for a long time, and GTAO is probably being maintained by the lowest bid contractor group.

They probably have all of their full time assets working on the next iteration of GTA.

They've also made just an absolute assload of money from GTA:O in spite of the godawful load times. Why bother spending the money to fix it when people are happy to deal with it and keep giving you their own cash?

All of the work.
