Become a host in GTA 5

To create a session in GTA 5


When you’re trying to complete missions or heists in GTA Online, your success often depends on other players. Sometimes people might have problems with the ping in the middle of a mission, making it hard for everyone else. In order to avoid that, you can become the host of the lobby. This article will help you do that.

Once you go to multiplayer, the game automatically creates a 16 player session. You can create your own in the pause menu. By doing that, you’ll be able to choose the right mission and invite your friends. Keep in mind that other players in your lobby must have roughly the same level, otherwise they won’t be able to connect.

The developers keep patching and updating the game, however matchmaking can still work incorrectly. You can only have players with similar levels or players from the same Crew in one lobby. Other players can join the lobby if they chose the same Quick Job as you. Empty lobbies can get quite crowded in several minutes once you join them. We recommend you to play with your friends to not team up with random players.
