GTA Online glitches at the wrong time can make things quite difficult for players, especially during missions. While Rockstar Games recently had a bunch of Halloween-themed missions, this specific glitch in GTA Online had nothing to do with them but scared a specific player nonetheless.

Playing out a business battle, a GTA Online player opened the door to head out and deliver the cargo and immediately faced several NPCs standing outside and shooting at him, all at once. The player's reaction and instant reflex to get back inside brought out hilarious responses from others on Reddit.


GTA Online player survives a scary glitch when dozens of NPCs spawn at the same spot

In the video, the player can be seen heading out to deliver the cargo to their Nightclub Garage. Once the door is opened using the keypad next to it, the player sees countless NPCs shooting right at them all at once. They can be seen running back inside almost immediately.

The player posted the video on Reddit with the caption: "Nice Halloween prank Rockstar." According to one of the players who posted their comments, similar glitches are quite common in Foundry and Scrapyard business battles with NPCs spawning continuously.


Theories and funny reactions by other players

One of the players explained what might have gone wrong in this case.

The player who posted the video was quite amused by the glitch and mentioned it was the first time they faced such an issue. They commented:

"Been playing this s*it for 6 years and never seen that happen, I panicked haha."

Had the player stepped outside instead of heading back in on an impulse, there could have been disastrous outcomes. Such glitches in the middle of a mission or a job can spoil everything for players if they lose their lives. Facing this many shooting NPCs at once could also have resulted in a very similar situation.
