GTA 5 is a multi-platform action game that was announced back in 2011. The release of the game was scheduled for 2013, but it was postponed, and the toy appeared on the PC only in 2015. The developer is Rockstar North, but the publisher is Rockstar Games. It was the latter who said that GTA 5 was the largest project for them in the history of their existence.
The essence of the game remains the same. Three characters: two of them are professional robbers, the third is a car thief. The gamer plays the role of arbiter of fate. But, as in previous times, few people care about the background. Moreover, with such graphics, players simply enjoy the background.
In the fifth part, the game world has become so large that even a week is not enough for the player to study all the subtleties and details. Despite the plot, all the same, the main goal remains to earn money, because all the resources that the hero needs will have to be bought. Well, of course, where you need a lot of cache, there are various cheat codes for creating additional resources. And yet, the highlight of the project is still a huge gaming space that is easy to explore in a helicopter, tank or cruiser.
Gaming features
Missions in the game is enough for everyone. There are mini-robberies that seem to bring the gamer to the main tasks. To fulfill them, you will need to find a car, clothes, camouflage elements.

At the same time, in such missions one often has to decide: to choose professional partners for big money or to get along with newcomers, but it is not cheap to save. Such mini-robberies are a kind of training for major thefts.
In general, in GTA 5 a gamer has great opportunities. The game as a real life simulator will allow you to pick up fellow travelers, do tricks and turns on a car.

Social club
Let's see what the Social Club is. This is a kind of social network for game owners from Rockstar Games. This online platform is only available for the first time paired with the fourth version of the action. When Max Payne 3 came out, Social Club was redesigned:
- A social component has been added to the site.
- Ability to create your own groups.

But the main task of this platform is the interaction of developers with users. Creators can collect information about attendance, achievement, and statistics. Also view comments and improve Social Club. Here you can also participate in competitions with other players and receive prizes from developers.
Using the online platform is free. To register, you need to go to the official Rockstar website. Next, we connect the Social Club account with the game account. And the last: profile setting.

Most often, this difficulty appears after a dialog box pops up after the end of the game with an error: "Activation required ...". To fix it, change the date on the PC and select April 18, 2015. After turning on the game, you must save it and then return the date.
When the activation of GTA 5 Social Club does not occur due to the allegedly used code, this is a difficulty that can be dealt with. If you already wrote in technical support, but did not receive an answer, you will have to solve the problem yourself. This error occurs if you previously downloaded pirated projects from Rockstar. In order for your activation code to be working, for a start you will have to remove all pirated games and Social Club. After removal, you need to clean the registry:
- Start.
- Run.
- Regedit.
- Press ctrl + F and enter “RockStar” and “Social Club”.
- We remove the found components.
Other bugs
To prevent the installation error of Social Club in the game GTA 5, carefully pay attention to the installation. Other errors occur either with the Social Club application itself or with other factors.
Another of the difficulties of GTA 5 Social Club: name error. This problem appears in those who have the Cyrillic alphabet in the Windows account name. In this case, the game does not turn on at all. To fix this problem, select the command line at startup and enter “lusrmgr.msc”, then go to “Users” and change the name in the “Rename” - “Properties” tab.
If an error is detected with the server, go to the folder with the downloaded "GTA-5" and find the x64 (*). Rpf.par file, copy this document and delete it from the folder. Launch the launcher and continue the boot process.
When GTA 5 abruptly stopped working, it means that one of the DLL files crashed. To determine which of the many, you need to find the error.log document in the Steamapps folder and look at the problem element there. Copy his name into notepad and close the folder. Now you need to install the Dll-Files Fixer software, after starting the program go to the Install Dll Files tab and enter the name of the file that you saved in notepad. The software itself will find and install this document in the desired folder. The same actions will help if there are errors indicating a specific file, for example, "Missing" ... dll "file."
If an error of any kind appeared in the game GTA 5 Social Club, but it doesn’t work out, it is most likely caused by downloading a pirated version or using an unlicensed activation key from the Internet. To use the game with maximum functionality and without errors, you still have to spend money and buy GTA 5 on Steam.
