Rockstar Games improves GTA Online on PC with a confidential player reporting system update. (Rockstar Games )

Rockstar Games has rolled out a significant improvement for GTA Online players on PC, aimed at enhancing the gaming experience and cracking down on cheaters. According to Tez2, a known insider and data miner, the latest update includes a crucial change to the player reporting system, making it more effective and confidential.

Previously, when players reported others in the game, the reported party would receive notification of the action taken against them, often leading to retaliation, particularly from mod menu users who could disrupt gameplay. However, with the recent update, this process has been overhauled, ensuring that only the reporting player and Rockstar Games are aware of the report.

The revised reporting system marks a crucial step in combating cheating and maintaining fair gameplay. Questions arose regarding the fate of reported players after the update, to which Tez2 clarified that all reports now directly reach Rockstar Games' servers without notifying the reported party. This change aims to prevent the manipulation of reported stats and safeguard the gaming experience for all players.

Moreover, assurances were made that similar enhancements would extend to console versions of Grand Theft Auto 5 Online, addressing concerns across different gaming platforms.
