NPCs Can't Stop Stealing GTA Online Player's Helicopter
Vehicle-based crime is the literal name of the game in Grand Theft Auto Online, but one unlucky player recently found themselves on the receiving end of a high-flying heist, with NPCs repeatedly stealing their Sparrow helicopter.

These computer-controlled citizens sometimes chase players across Grand Theft Auto Online’s Los Santos, and one GTA Online update introduced an indestructible, shotgun-wielding NPC that menaced players like a digital version of the infamous T-800 Terminator. Some believe the game's most recent Contract update has made Grand Theft Auto Online’s NPCs even more aggressive, with computer-controlled characters retaliating against the users regularly wreaking havoc across their digital homes.
