Summary

AGTA Onlineplayer has experienced an odd glitch in which their casino dealer simply vanished into thin air. The bizarre moment is getting some laughs out ofGTA Online’s gaming community.

GTA 5andGTA Onlineare certainly not without bugs. Rockstar Games' most popular titles likeRed Dead RedemptionandGTAoften contain odd glitches and bugs, though the worst of them are usually ironed out of the titles through patches.Open world gamesare often buggy, as the huge scale of the games can make it difficult to find every problem and fix them. It’s not limited to Rockstar, as Bethesda games are also notorious for being riddled with weird bugs, especially at launch.

In this particular case, aGTA Onlineplayer called AntTalexanderTarnold was sitting down to a game of Blackjack solo with an NPC dealer at theDiamond Casino and Resort. In a brief video, the NPC deals the player an opening hand of fifteen, and sets down a 3 in front of herself. She then turns to the player as they decide what to do. However, before AntTalexanderTarnold can do anything, the dealer seemingly loses interest, looking away from the table and returning to an idle pose. She then proceeds to hover off the floor for a moment before vanishing entirely.

It’s an unfortunate circumstance for the player, as they stated that after this they had to completely quit out of the game, as they couldn’t act without the dealer there. This led to them losing their chips, as well. There’s no solid explanation for what happened with the casino dealer, though this isn’t the first-known example of them glitching out on players. Dealers have casually walked away from games before, or even been sent flying randomly as though a vehicle had collided with them.

GTA Online Players Amused by Bugs

GTA Onlineplayers were quick to poke fun at the moment, joking that the dealer vanished in order to avoid letting the player win. Others mused that she was abducted by aliens and might have appeared onMount Chilliadafter the fact. It’s a moment that’s certainly amusing to watch, but could be quite frustrating if experiencing it for one’s self. It’s not clear what really caused this bug, as other than changing the camera perspective a few times, the player didn’t do anything before it happened.

With many fans of the franchise now looking forward toGTA 6, it will be interesting to see what kind of issues the game may have. Odd little bugs like this could pop up, but with any luck, the game will launch in a far better state than theGTA: The Trilogy - The Definitive Editionremaster, which was a mess of bugs and graphical issues when it hit store shelves.
