I suspect it ensure the server doesn't get overloaded with masses of players creatings new characters like I heard when it happened with GTA 5

I suspect its to insure people pre order the game and buy the deluxe edition lol.

But yeah, that did happen. However the majority have our version so it could def happen again haha.

Im still mad. i wanna enjoy the game before noobs and game journos ruin it with passive mode again.

That I can understand since I played gta 5 on the ps4 a few times and a few bad encounters with bad players who makes it there business to ruin it for other players so I quit that session and look for a friendler one.

That's exactly the reason.  They staggered it to avoid issues with RDO being overwhelmed and at the same time added a little bonus to those who bought the Ultimate Edition and the rest who supported the game at launch.

Glad to see you're fighting the good fight.

Staggered release probably also helped to keep down the flood of hate posts, tweets, etc. when it didn't launch smoothly.  I imagine a lot of people did what I did, sent a ticket about what was happening on our end when Xbox servers weren't up, mostly to help them gather more info to try to fix it (not much, if anything from our end would have helped, though). Or just waited patiently for it to be fixed.
