Revenge is sweet for game developer Rockstar when it foiled those who cheated in the online mode for "Grand Theft Auto V."
The developer of the "GTA" series has been reportedly developing new patches for the game, and one of those is an anti-cheating system already incorporated in the update. One of the glitches that the update solved is the way players can import a modded supercar from the single player campaign story to the online mode of the game.
Many hardcore fans of the latest installment prefer the "Duke 'o Death." This supercar is an incredibly powerful one in the "GTA V" world, being superbly fast, supercharged to the extreme, and unbelievably durable and destructive. The car is only available in single player mode, but some players with it have found a glitch where, as long as they have the vehicle in their garage, can have it delivered by the in-game's insurance company, Mors Mutual Insurance.
Rockstar Games sniffed out this in-game glitch and moved to remedy it. However, they chose to update the bug in a fun, almost comical way. Instead of removing the glitch altogether, the developer decided to just insert a code that makes the insurance company deliver the Duke, but to have it explode with the player still inside, making an instant car bomb and a suicidal "Wasted" moment.
When Rockstar uploaded the update, bomb cars exploding kept on appearing online, with players even uploading on YouTube their hilarious attempts at circumnavigating the system.
Meanwhile, Rockstar seems to be still developing updates on its latest title, and fans are wondering if other cars such as the Go Go Monkey Blista will also become "smart bombs." The updates are reportedly in the works, as Rockstar is preparing for the release of "Grand Theft Auto V" for PC, which will launch on April 14.
