I almost exclusively play GTA Online these days (I can’t remember the last time I played Story mode). I just wondered if there were a way to make the game start in Online mode automatically without me having to press X (PS3) each time whilst the game’s loading?

To answer the question, no. There is no way. The best way would be to just press X (A on XBox) when the game starts loading. If you accidentally load into story mode, you can use the Switcher and choose the bottom character to switch to your online character instead of having to go through the menu.

1Take into account that the game loads quicker to online via story anyway.– Brok3nCommented Jul 24, 2014 at 23:52
I haven't checked on my PS3, but on the PS4 you hit Options (start button on PS3), go over to Settings, down to Saving And Startup, and change Startup Flow from "Load into Story Mode" to "Load into GTA Online".
This doesn't seem to be permanent, as I have to do it every other month or so, but it beats hitting X every time you turn the game on.

Yeah, I bought myself a PS4 just before Christmas and found the Startup Flow option. Would have been nice in the PS3 version, but alas! Commented Feb 20, 2016 at 22:36
