Going to pin and feature to put this whole issue to rest once and for all.

No you will not be banned for single player mods.

No you will not be banned for single player mods.

​You should, however, always keep in mind that modifying the game is a risk you take, no one else can be blamed for any unforseen consequences. 

its really sad that some people cant use there brains and have to resort to worrying about modding single player and rockstar....these people should just get banned all they do is spam with the same stupid questions over and over take a chill pill and step outside get some fresh air for a change if you are so worried about rockstar and modding...unbelievable

​​Im glad R* finally decided to openly address this subject. You would think it something like this wouldn't be such a big issue but it has been. People are quick assume and have hissy fits. Either way, i hope everyone can relax now and just enjoy the darn game.

Well, instead of asking questions 'bout singleplayer mods, they should have asked if there will ever be a way to use mods in multiplayer without getting banned. In a private lobby maybe...

​So Icon just said "No, you will not get banned for SP mods" and you say "It's a risk you take". What?

Wow. This is the first time that Rockstar has "broken the fourth wall" and discussed mods and named a couple, the zombie mod and the original map mod. It's too bad they could not have named LCPDFR. The recognition would be pretty cool.

​Indeed, is there anything weird with that? Having mods in Singleplayer may cause you to be banned from Online if you enter Online. You modify the game on your on risk, that is all I am saying. 

I already saw 2 cheaters online by using speed hacks and godmode.

​Report and move on, all you can do sadly. 

Finally Rockstar said something.

I had my fingers crossed of the 0.00001% chance that Rockstar says, "We are willing to work with the LCPDFR Development team".

Ah well.

​Same, I wanted to hear Rockstar say, "We are willing to work and help LCPDFR Development team. "

​"We are prepared to work with the LCPDFR Development Team in releasing an outstanding law enforcement/policing modification, limited to Grand Theft Auto V's singleplayer." Guess we'll just keep dreaming, lol.

I think we'd like to keep our development freedom :) 

Glad to see an announcement about mods from them!

They didn't directly answer the FOV question though, and that's what worries me.

​'Yes, we could make an FOV slider and put it in the next patch, but naaah, we'll sit back and watch all the money flow in'.

Generally speaking they're implying (although they didn't outright state) that any and all modifications to GTA Online, no matter how large or small, are able to get you banned.  The FOV mod is more than likely included there.  If they start tolerating some mods but not others, it will be difficult to draw the line.  Safer to ban all GTA Online mods.
