Introduction to Grand Theft Auto 5 Online for Xbox 360

For Xbox 360 gamers, Grand Theft Auto 5 Online offers an engaging experience that allows up to 30 players to join a session at once with a maximum capacity of 16 players per session on Xbox Live servers. Players can create their own characters and take part in various neighborhoods or activities with other like-minded players from around the world.
To get started playing Grand Theft Auto 5 Online for Xbox 360, you’ll need to connect your Xbox 360 console to the internet and download the free patch update before you can join other gamers across the world. Once you’ve done that, you can join existing gaming sessions or create your own game with custom rules. Characters created during a single-player game are automatically saved on your console and can be used during multiplayer games too!
Joining an existing gaming session allows you to connect with gamers who have already set up their own rules, such as no skipping missions or no killing fellow crew members – so it’s important that you read through any rules before joining in on the action! After joining a session, explore different neighborhoods, join crews for further fun-filled gameplay, try out various missions and play various race types with fellow gamers worldwide – all without police interference or fear of being attacked mid-game!

Setting Up Your Online Account
Before you can jump into all the fun and mayhem of GTA Online, you will need to create a Rockstar Games Social Club account. This is a free account that allows players to store their progress and access other features such as leader-boards, up-coming game events, fan artwork and competitions.
Creating the Social Club Account
To create an online account, simply visit the official RockStar website and follow the on-screen prompts. You’ll be asked to enter your email address and pick a unique username before setting up a password and confirming your identity via an emailed verification link.
Once your details are confirmed, you’ll need to accept the terms of use before you can begin playing GTA Online.
Get Connected: Network & Profile Settings
Before you can play GTA Online with friends or join other games in progress, you’ll need to make sure your console is properly set up for online play. Every Xbox 360 user has two settings that control whether they can join public games or look for friend’s sessions: The Network Setting (which determines what kind of connections players have access to) and the Profile Setting (which controls who is allowed to join or add them as a friend). Allow both of these settings to be visible when navigating online menus or when people search for you. Additionally, make sure “Invites” are enabled so people can get in touch with you easier.
