You do realize that they didn't release a simple patch to fix that issue in five years, right? It's kind of a major issue when you can't invite friends to your game lol. When someone on your friends list joined the same multiplayer lobby, whether invited or not, the game would often boot everyone except you and your friend. Through experience, we figured out that the game was creating a second lobby and dumping us in one and everyone else in the other. Then, nobody else would join the newly created lobby because it wasn't being queued up with the other lobbies to be populated.
It's sloppy programming that they could have addressed but there apparently wasn't enough bitching in the forums for Rockstar to care. And, it's kind of important too, because I know a handful of people who won't be buying the game unless this gets fixed. I'm sure there are more out there.
