A few thoughts about world events
I've been watching some people play the game on youtube and I noticed that mostly events are attended by a maximum of one or two players at a time. It could be because the game is new and things are still being firgured out by new players but I'm worried the events won't be used very much despite looking quite fun.
I think how GTAV deals with it is when you join an event you're just placed into a game with people from other sessions as well to keep them populated.
So in short, I'm worried events despite being fun will have a low amount of attendees and because of that will be less fun and people stop bothering to join them.

The world events I did solo. IMO, they were more fun becuase it was more difficult.
Also a side note, fast-traveling to World events are a great way to level fast. Someone did this during the 4-hour beta and is level 18 already.
I think the game could do a better job letting you know you can fast travel to events. I didn't realize this was possible until towards the end of the first B.E.T.A, despite having also played the stress test. I suspect it will make for some interesting strategies once the game has been going for a few hours (e.g. a level 2 character will be able to fast travel across most of the map if there's an event there).
