Popularity is a double-edged sword for Rockstar and its huge hit Grand Theft Auto V.

After a massive launch day for GTA V Online, Rockstar unsurprisingly has some buggy issues to work through, despite those extra servers the company snatched up in anticipation of demand.

Microtransactions have been temporarily turned off in the game while Rockstar continues to fix the many problems plaguing the world of Los Santos, but the support page notes you can still earn in-game cash:

"Players can however keep on earning GTA$ by pulling off Jobs and other profitable gameplay activities rather than purchasing cash packs."

Be on the lookout for...

The support page also details the latest updates about the other bugs like PlayStation Network server issues, blocked tutorial missions and online instability.

We're hoping the list doesn't grow too long though Rockstar has been adamant about repairing every irksome issue, and is encouraging players to contact it with any issue via email and Twitter.

Let's hope Rockstar can fix everything and we can all get back to exploring Los Santos together.
