As GTA Online's Halloween event is coming to an end, many players are already feeling nostalgic about all of the new activities and rewards they have received throughout this month.
But for some players, the scary weather that dominated GTA Online's map was something they found very immersive and memorable. Many players even wished that their game would stay that way forever.
Fortunately, a recent glitch made it possible for GTA Online players to save this scary Halloween weather in single-player mode.
Players can only do this before the Halloween event officially ends, so they don't have much time left. This article will provide all of the important information they need to perform this glitch.
GTA Online players now can play with the Halloween weather effects in GTA 5 with this glitch
Popular GTA informer Ben shared this post on Twitter talking about this glitch and how players can activate it. When Grand Theft Auto Online players have logged into a session that has the Halloween weather effect activated, they just need to leave the session and enter the single player mode.
This should cause the Halloween weather effect to be transported into Grand Theft Auto 5's gameplay, and players will be able to play single player mode with this effect activated. Now, players just have to save their progress in any of the protagonist's safe houses.
By doing this, the next time they enter single player mode directly, they will find the Halloween weather effect automatically activated in their game.
How have GTA fans reacted to this new glitch?
In the above posted tweets, readers can see that many fans were wondering if the UFOs will be present in the single player mode as well, because in GTA Online the Halloween water effect was introduced as a part of the UFO Sightseeing event.
Unfortunately, players won't be able to find any UFOs in the single player mode as this glitch strictly only brings Halloween weather from Grand Theft Auto Online to Grand Theft Auto 5 and nothing else.
One user pointed out that if players start playing some of the missions in Grand Theft Auto 5, there is a possibility that the weather effect will not work. Thus, Grand Theft Auto fans should keep this in mind as this is still a glitch and is not an active in-game feature.
Although the user has not specified exactly which mission caused the glitch to go away, it’s safe to assume that most of the story missions that have extensive cut-scenes in them will cause this glitch to not work.
This will probably happen because the majority of the cut-scenes do require the vanilla base game to work properly and may turn the game's weather into its default state. Again, this is just a theory.
However, many Grand Theft Auto players are not necessarily the biggest fans of this weather effect, which is understandable as players who like their visuals to be clear and vibrant would definitely not like the saturated colors and dark skies this effect creates.
Moreover, for several players, this effect is just a filter that shouldn’t stick around for long and they are glad that the single player mode is free of it, so it makes sense for them to not use this glitch.
