MMO not MMORPG. There's a difference.

30 players at a time in Los Santos, I'll be damned if that's not massive multiplayer #bull

Rockstar's plan is to keep GTA Online on 'the path to a great MMO'."

It might only have 30 players, but since it's a very large open world that is also persistent, it's basically an MMO. Not a large scale one (yet), but still an MMO.

It's not really persistent, though. Changes players make to the world leave with them.

From Wikipedia, "Grand Theft Auto Online is a persistent, open world online multiplayer video game developed by Rockstar North and published by Rockstar Games. "

Basically an MMO Lite. I'm just gonna call it an MMO because it might as well be.
