OK what has 1.17 changed?

[CrysisAverted]

Aw man I just noticed the Lazer no longer shoots tracers, what a bummer. I wanted to use it in an action scene...

[SeaWallTx]

A lot of my KDR is attributed to my mastery of the complicated passive mode glitch of 1.17. You are correct in your post about how to operate it. There is more to the story in terms of how you appear and what you can do, but that's strategic info that I learned the hard way.

Oh you mean all the other stuff that started with this update or just everything;

 

Because unlike you I will share, and here is EVERYTHING I know, I think, at this time about "Passive Mode";

 

►The "Passive Mode" deactivation bug;

◆Now we understand this is a bug that is activated by deactivating "Passive Mode". Once you are in "Passive Mode" for the first time, it will run as normal, as it should, but once you deactivate it, FOR ANY REASON, it becomes bugged.

◆Now the way this bug works is odd but "Passive Mode" is deactivated upon touching a Vehicle's DRIVER's door, whether you are entering, exiting, yanking the driver out, or simply propping the door open, if you have touched the Vehicle's DRIVER's door(via the "Triangle/Y" button) then "Passive Mode's" deactivation timer will begin and you soon be out of "Passive Mode".

◆Due to this bug or as part of the bug, it appears that the time limit(cool-down period) on "Passive Mode" or at least bugged "Passive Mode" has been lifted and is NO LONGER in affect, because you can go straight back into "Passive Mode" IMMEDIATELY, once the timer has reached ZERO and vanished.

◆Now to avoid "Passive Mode" deactivating when you enter Vehicles(yanking the driver out, or simply propping the door open) you can use the Vehicle's Passenger's Door, this is easy to do when entering/stealing a Vehicle, but when exiting a vehicle it still deactivates "Passive Mode" no matter which door you exit from.

 

►The "Passive Mode" Semi-Activion Bug,

◆This happens if you have killed someone or done something to have recently deactive "Passive Mode" so that it is in a cooldown period, then you open the Interaction Menu during the cooldown period and you still cannot yet enable passive mode because it is "greyed-out". Then once the cooldown timer runs out it will become available, and if you just choose it right then it will not actually activate "Passive mode", it will only activate it for you. Meaning you can't use weapons or place bounties but everyone else CAN attack you and place bounties on you. So you must have the "Interaction Menu " Close until the cooldown period is over or close it after the cooldown period is over then open and select "Enable Passive Mode" and it will work for real.

 

►The "Passive Mode" while having bounty bug;

◆This is super easy, all you have to do is have a Bounty on you, swap to you other Online Character, "Enable Passive Mode" and then simply swap back to your original character(then one with the bounty. Then this character will spawn in "Passive Mode" and the bounty will not be activated until "Passive Mode" is deactivated.

◆This also means that when you are switching characters that if the character you are on is in "Passive Mode" that once you switch your character will already be in "Passive Mode as well.

Now while we have the "Passive Mode" deactivation bug, you may want to "Disable Passive Mode" before swapping characters, so that once you are into your next Online Session you can defend yourself and once you do "Enable Passive Mode" it will function as normal, at least until you "Disable Passive Mode".

-Go into "Passive Mode" with a Bounty.(EASY)

*THE INFORMATION BELOW WITHIN THE SPOILER TABS MAY CONCERN EXPLOITS/GLITCHES, IF YOU ARE UNCOMFORTABLE WITH THAT PLEASE DO NOT OPEN THE SPOILER TABS , AND SIMPLY SKIP OVER THEM TO THE NEXT BIT OF INFORMATION.*

 

 

Requires:2 characters.

~Once in an "Online Session" and you have a bounty place on you press "Start" to pause the game,

~Then go to "Online">"Swap Characters" and let it load up and choose your other character,

~Now when you spawn into an "Online Session" with your other character press "Start" to pause the game,

~Then go to "Online">"Options">"Enable Passive Mode $0" and select it,

(You can also do this by holding "Select/Back" to open your "Interactive Menu" and selecting "Enable Passive Mode" .)

~Then press "Circle/B" to get to the Main "Online" menu and select "Swap Character",(If you used the "Interactive Menu" you will need to pause the game to get to the Online Menu.)

~Now swap to you Original Character(the one with the bounty on them) and let it load,

~Then once you spawn into an "Online Session" you WILL be in "Passive Mode" and NO ONE will get any alert or notice that you have a bounty on you at all.)

~Enjoy!

Tips:

~You CAN use your weapons while in "Passive Mode" but ONLY inside of a Vehicle.

►The No Time Limit or Unlimited Bounty bug

◆This is a neat little treat from hell for the right kind of a$$hole, this happens when you are in "Passive Mode" and you place a bounty on another Player and kill them. If you do this they will die, it will NOT say you killed them, the bounty will not get removed, and the Timer For the Bounty will also be removed meaning now the only way for them to get out of this bounty is to be killed by someone other than you. And this must be AFTER you are out of the session, as long as you are in the session with them, anyone can kill them, COLLECT the bounty and the bounty will STILL REMAIN on them.

-No time limit bounty:

~Then when you are back into an "Online Session" as a SP Character find a player with a bounty,

~Now track down and kill that scum, lol, as the SP Character,(You MAY not recieve the reward, RP, or reconizion for the kill.)

~Then when the victim with the bounty respawns they WILL STILL have the bounty on them,

~Now as long as you are in the session and remain a SP Character the player WILL keep his bounty, NO MATTER who kills him,

~Enjoy!

P.S.

If you don't feel need to share information you consider good or helpful, then just remember why no one answers your next question, "There is more to the story in terms of how you appear and what you can do, but that's strategic info that I learned the hard way.". Of course there is, there is more to the story, there always is, lol.

Yes please! I would happily contribute to it, and hopefully it could prove to be useful for R* to frequent--and actually fix them.

FRESHLY UPDATED CONTENT: 9:03pm CST

►All of the following information has been added to the "-Still To Come" Section;

►New Apartment Pics and Information LEAKED;*Added to the "-Still To Come" Section.*

◆One of my favourite pre-release leaks, featuring a new mini-game update to our High-end apartment. The new mini-game is self-explanatory in the photo, Darts! There is also an added-suitcase at the side next to the cabinet, this most likely has no significance Considering the only available Darts area is in Blaine County, this first-time minigame will increase the social-events players can hold in their apartment such as Dart competitions. I believe, from source code, that it will operate the same way that the standard Darts interface works.

 

◆In the first of the lot is a screenshot(ABOVE) depicting some sort of a surveillance equipment inside an apartment building with a rest room on its right and a closet on its left hand side.
◆It is not yet clear if this surveillance equipment is meant for some household security or in-game surveillance system for Heist missions.

◆This preview demonstrates a CCTV-panel with two chairs, two computers and a front layer large screen. Above this, we can see what looks like a first-aid cabinet, looks a bit odd but could be part of one of their future plans as with this CCTV console. At the side, we can see a small amount of the wardrobe area which has some nice shadows that I've not seen on the current version of this apartment. This preview has originated from the old-High end apartment that was available when Grand Theft Auto Online first launched.

◆In the next screenshot(ABOVE) for GTA 5 next-gen, we get a glimpse of the living room interiors, wherein you can spot a laptop sitting on the coffee table.
◆There is also a gigantic white-board screen on one-side and a large LCD/LED TV mounted on the wall with two wall-mounted speakers on its sides.
◆In other words, it means you can surf the web on the laptop while enjoying your favorite programs on the TV.

◆This preview isn't as thrilling as the one above, but does show some dynamic changes. Firstly, their are two speakers next to the TV, which links to the Hi-Fi system shown on the bottom right - I don't want to cause a definite 'Yes' game, but I believe from source code that this is a feature allowing you to select music from the XMB and apply the track to the music in your apartment. I can also see a laptop on the glass table, this shows the Lifeinvader page, I don't believe this has any special attraction un-like the others. There is a orange heater on the top right, it is reflecting a nice, warm Orange glow - a new light shadow which looks nice.

◆In this screenshot(ABOVE), you will see a washer and drier to one corner of the modular kitchen with fully furnished wardrobe including wooden shelves, storage cupboards and authentic window screens.
◆Some of the key notable features supported by the modular kitchen include refilling your health bar, washing off blood stains from clothes after getting shot or killing someone with some melee weapon.

◆So it appears there will also be a washing-machine function added to the Apartment, allowing you to quick-clean the blood from your clothes. Now, the unique element of this preview, is that a Maid-AI character is standing next to the washing machine, according to some other assets I've found, the introduction of Maid-AI features are likely to be added. You can also see an Online character playing darts, I believe Rockstar are demonstrating a player using the new Apartment feature with the new Maid-AI doing their duty in the corner of the room.
◆On a closer look, you will also observe a toaster and a pot cooker sitting on the platform in the kitchen, which could come in handy for making bread toast or some delicious and spicy dishes of your liking.

 

◆This preview doesn't have many changes, I can, however, see a few new kitchen things like a toaster, a pot on the cooker and some small items on the white table - these are not currently seen in the current version of this apartment. One thing I can again believe to be a new up-coming feature is the washing machine and dryer on the right - for a while I've seen bits and pieces that relate to 'quick-washing the blood' from your clothes despite the Shower doing something similar to this. Again, I cannot promise this is a definite feature but 90% of the stuff added to this interior update has a feature/purpose.

 

◆One of the most strange, but excellent and innovative pre-release features I have collected, is expanded Apartment access. The interior shown in the photo, has in fact, existed for a while but in this preview, you can see an alarm above the door of your Multiplayer apartment front door which is most likely to increase the realness of outside your Apartment or what some may call 'Inside your apartment building'. The odd part of this pre-release preview, is the memorial outside the Apartment door on the right. It seems Rockstar have created a 'dead man next door' theme which matches the theme of GTA Online (being killed, violence etc). Although this memorial has no role in the ability to enter and exit your Apartment manually, I find it a funny but ionic twist to the interior.

◆The player may now be able to enter and exit their Apartment via the lift manually, rather then the AI moving your character for you and then the ability to open, close and lock your Apartment door. The only downside, is that you can't interact with other players in the hallway of your Apartment building unless you invite them. I am not sure what the 'Lock, Open, Close' misc options are for, if you can't let other players in the lobby but this could be worked-around on the actual release of this feature.

◆This photo(ABOVE) is the updated High-end apartment which was released in 1.13, they've added a PC, a shredder next to it, a planning board and I've noticed some increased light shadow which is nice.

◆This photo(ABOVE) is the first High-end apartment that came with GTAO in October 2013. They've added the same PC next to the printer meaning it could be part of the interaction between heists and the planning board - the planning board itself has also been added. Again, I can see some nice light shadowing. A pile of books has been added next to the PC - could this be where heists logs are stored? Who knows!

►New Houses & Mansions maybe coming to Online:*Added to the "-Still To Come" Section.*

◆I am unable to confirm that the following locations will be added to GTA Online but it seems Rockstar devs have initiated a Dynasty preview for each new location and we can see the infamous 'Keypad' on the wall of each location which I have circled in RED which is only ever seen on current GTA Online apartment buildings - this is a good indication it will be coming to GTA Online on all platforms.

This location does not seem to be a mansion but is part of the future house preview collection.

FRESHLY UPDATED CONTENT: 10:43pm CST

►The Sentinel XS Driver(a.k.a. the Hitman) has seemingly vanished.

◆Has R☆ removed him?

◆Is it a bug?

◆Was he a bug?

◆Was he part of the Shark Card Conspiracy? And since it's over he's gone? LOL

◆Or is he just visiting Johnny and we'll see him again soon?

►Answer: What has happened to The Sentinel XS Driver(a.k.a. the Hitman);

◆He hasn't gone away at all, it seems he has been re-coded, he is now part of the "Ambient Even Launcher" and is only launched, at the most, every 48 minutes.

◆He is part of the Joyrider Script and it has now been corrected and added to the "Ambient Even Launcher", so now you may see the The Sentinel XS Driver(a.k.a. the Hitman) and not even know it because he will be in one of the vehicles on Simeon's List of wanted Vehicles, if you have one or one of a hand full of Premium(Too Hot) Vehicles(Stinger GT, Entity XF, Feltzer, Monroe, Cognoscenti Cabrio, Super Diamond, & Infernus.)

◆He NO LONGER drives the Sentinel XS unless it is on your List of vehicles wanted Vehicles by Simeon, at least not for the most part. Him driving this vehicle exclusively was a bug and has now been fixed by him being tied to the "Ambient Even Launcher".

◆IMO the name "Sentinel XS Man/Driver" NO LONGER fits him, although "Hitman" certainly does as he often tries to(and does) kill you on sight, by either running you over or taking aim at you with one of his weapons(Pistol, Micro SMG, or Pump shotgun).

◆Who is this Joyrider(The Sentinel XS Driver a.k.a. the Hitman)?

☞He's a NPC driver that comes speeding by and will try to run you over if you are on foot, also if you fire at him he will often return fire and he is also a great place for low-level players to get automatic small arms weapons(Pistol, Micro SMG, or Pump shotgun). He spawns right after loading you load into a session, like after leave the SystemStore, or a Mission, leading some people to believe he is tied to the Shark Card Conspiracy, since he always trys to kill you before you can put Money made from a mission into the bank. He is called "The Hitman" because he often flatout tries to(and does) kill you, and he is called "The Sentinel Guy" because he usually(or did) drives Sentinel XS, but he also spawns in one of Simeon's Wanted LIST Vehicles(Import/Export Vehicles), or a High End "Too Hot" Vehicles(Stinger GT, Entity XF, Feltzer, Monroe, Cognoscenti Cabrio, Super Diamond, & Infernus.) if you have no Simeon List. He is on of R☆ NPCs that was supposed to act like "us", like players would act when seeing another player. This comes from a very early article in which R☆ talks of making NPCs of all types, timid, fighter, scared, curious, and "even some that will react like other players in the game would." -R☆.

◆Random Events include Bank Trucks, Crate Drops, HPVs, Assassinations, and yes Joyriders(a.k.a. Sentinel Driver, a.k.a The Hitman).

Ambient Even Launcher:

"TIME_EVENT_FREQUENCY_AMBIENT_LAUNCHER"

The coding was found in the tuneables script for the 1.17 update.

◆Value is set to 2880000 .

◆2880000 milliseconds = 48 minutes, this means that Randoms Events now work in a more randomized type of a cycle that is 48 minutes in length.

►"Plane Takedown Reward" was added at the same time as the Ambient Even Launcher.

◆The "Plane Takedown Reward" was Added to Online but has been left Disabled, for now.

Plane Takedown Reward(Event)

"DISABLE_EVENT_PLANE_TAKEDOWN""PLANE_TAKEDOWN_REWARDS_CASH" = 2000"PLANE_TAKEDOWN_REWARDS_XP" = 1000

Credit for the discovered coding(ABOVE) goes to funmw2 a GTAforums Member.

The coding was found in the tuneables script for the 1.17 update.

◆With no real clues to what this new feature is we are only left to assume it is tied to Crate Drops, and that possibly we can get a secondary Reward for downing the Crate Drop Plane. Possibly this is why the "Pilot was scared away" feature was added with the previous update.

◆As R☆ gears up to usher an entire new population into Los Santos and Blaine County with the release of Grand Theft Auto V on the PS4 and Xbox One next week(Nov. 18th) – they just wanted to say, "thank you to the awesome and dedicated players(Us) that have made GTA Online such a nonstop thrill over the past year on PS3 and Xbox 360 so far.

►All of the following information has been added to the "-Still To Come" Section;

►Get Ready for the Next Generation in Los Santos*Added to the "-Still To Come" Section.*

◆Next week(Nov. 18th), get ready to join an entire new generation of Los Santos and Blaine County residents. The power of the latest console hardware has added new potential to the world and we’re all very excited for what, you, our amazing player community will make of Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One next week.
◆With the advent of First Person Mode, 30-player Online support and other new features made possible by the new systems, our feedback, help and guidance is more important than ever to help R* make the game experience all it can be. Whether it’s letting them know what you like and what you don’t like about the new features, reporting any technical issues you may experience during the early days of GTA Online’s next generation launch, or any other suggestions for improvements and tweaks whatsoever – we need your continued help, and, maybe, just a little patience if there are any teething problems around the launch on the new systems. R*(and us the Beta testers) has, of course, tested the game extensively but there is no way our several hundred testers can be quite as comprehensive as millions of players! Please bear with us should any issues arise - we will be working hard to fix any problems that arise, and generally ensure this launch is as smooth as possible.
To help aid on that front, we want to continue to encourage all players to utilize the following communication channels:
☞R☆'s dedicated Rockstar Games Support website for help with any and all technical issues that may arise. You can browse the knowledge base of known GTAV and GTA Online issues and subscribe to articles there to get automatic updates of when they’re addressed. And if your issue does not appear as an existing knowledge base item, you can also always create a new ticket to get help.
R☆'s dedicated Rockstar Games Support website:"https://support.rockstargames.com/"
☞The [email protected] official player feedback inbox. Over the past year, with each and every Update released for GTA Online were tons of positive changes made as a direct result of player feedback that our development team consulted constantly for input. From specific content added to the game to countless enhancements such as improvements to GTA Online’s RP and GTA$ payouts, insurance system, passive mode, Creator features, damage system – and so much more were all made to the game thanks to your very helpful suggestions. R☆ has said since the very beginning "that Grand Theft Auto Online is as much yours as the players and residents of San Andreas, as it is ours as R☆ Games" and that "–we’re very excited to continue the collaboration ahead."
The [email protected] official player feedback inbox:"[email protected]"
◆Also expect a Title Update to be made available for download on both PS4 and Xbox One by this Monday that will include some last minute tweaks, optimizations, & quick fixes for game day. In order to experience the game properly, please make sure you install this Update before playing (like all Title Updates, it will be applied automatically as long as you are connected to the internet).
◆We will be looking closely at your feedback from the initial launch days on the new platforms to help inform other future dynamic tuning changes and Title Updates as always. And get ready for continuing free content Updates for Grand Theft Auto Online, including the highly-anticipated launch of Online Heists (which, to be absolutely clear, will be available for all four consoles to enjoy).
◆Beyond that, here’s just a few things to get excited for in Grand Theft Auto Online for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One starting next week:

◆Up to 30 Player Mayhem.
☞Whether it’s mass marauding in Freemode or lining up a proper Crew convoy for an epic GTA Race – there will now be the opportunity for nearly double the player action that was possible on the PS3 and 360.

◆The Next Generation Character Creator.
☞Give your GTA Online player a dramatic makeover thanks to the new customization options that the overhauled character creator offers. Create a brand new character from scratch or take your current guy or gal for a bit of cosmetic surgery in true Los Santos fashion.

◆The GTA Online First Person Experience.
☞We revealed the first person experience for GTAV last week, a feature that will be available in both Story Mode and GTA Online allowing you to seamlessly switch between first and third person perspectives while playing. Fancy trying your favorite Team Deathmatch as a first person shooter – or weaving through the turbines at the RON wind farm with a view from the cockpit of your Lazer in glorious 1080p? That’s just scratching the surface of the possibilities that the first person experience will add to the gameplay of GTA Online.

◆Double the Props in the Creator Tool.
☞To date, the amazing minds who’ve put the Creator Tool to work are responsible for nearly 10 million original custom Deathmatches, Races, Captures and Last Team Standing Jobs. Amongst those are some truly epic experiences including some masterfully imaginative metagames that we never could have envisioned. Now with the possibilities of prop placement doubled, you’ll be able to build enormous arena-style Deathmatches for concentrated chaos, or maze-based Land Races requiring extreme guile, or stack shipping containers around Air Race checkpoints to create large scale obstacle courses for GTA Online stunt pilots… With double the props and up to 30 players, we can’t wait to see the ways in which the incredible Creator community will assuredly concoct brilliant gameplay magic on the PS4, Xbox One and PC.
◆We will be looking closely at your feedback from the initial launch days on the new platforms to help inform other future dynamic tuning changes and Title Updates as always. And get ready for continuing free content Updates for Grand Theft Auto Online, including the highly-anticipated launch of Online Heists (which, to be absolutely clear, will be available for all four consoles to enjoy).

"TIME_EVENT_FREQUENCY_AMBIENT_LAUNCHER"

Credit for the discovered coding(ABOVE) goes to funmw2 a GTAforums Member.

The coding was found in the tuneables script for the 1.17 update.

◆Value is set to 2880000 .

◆2880000 milliseconds = 48 minutes, this means that Randoms Events now work in a more randomized type of a cycle that is 48 minutes in length.

 

Does that mean there is only one event every 48 minutes now?

 

Or that we will see every event in that 48 minutes and the cycle repeats itseft after?

Heists will be a huge troll fest! You'll have to play with friends / crew, randoms will just waste your time.

in SP, when i opened my phone there was a "check list" icon with "Open missions" and "progess" categories inside. Has this been there forever and i've never noticed it?

One event every 48 minutes.

 

Well I am not totally certian on that, it is dependent on the number of players in the session.

Say you are in a Session all Alone, then you will only get the 1 per 48 minutes, because all you qualify for is the Bank Trucks.

But if you have 2 or more then you can have at least 2, because I have had it happen, I have had the bank truck and a HPV.

Then if you have 4 or more you qualify for everything(except special crate drops, you need 8 for special crate drops) in a case with 4 or more you maybe able to have multiple random events in 48 minute BUT they will not repeat.

Anyone having trouble removing crew emblems from a vehicle?

 

I ran into an issue today where after I removed the emblem, but still in LSC, it would come back or disappear as I was browsing other items.

 

So I had to make sure I stopped where it would leave the emblem off the car, and save as such while leaving LSC.

 

System: Xbox360

 

Vehicle: Romero Hearse

 

Location: Eastern LSC, half a block from ammu-nation.

Wasn't the Stallion a vehicle made by Classique?

[SeaWallTx]

Wasn't the Stallion a vehicle made by Classique?

Evidently Classique wasn't part of the Bailout, they failed to make it to GTAV;

 

Classique is an automotive manufacturer in the HD Universe of the Grand Theft Auto series.

Classique is likely based on the defunct Oldsmobile ("classic" being a play on "old"), [and is now defunct itself, lol] as the Stallion from GTA IV has a lot of influence from Oldsmobiles[i.e the 1968-1969 Oldsmobile Cutlass & 442]. The logo is somewhat based on the Saturn Corporation logo (also somewhat similar to the Oldsmobile logo), but the border is a circle and the center has a loop that mimics the first C in "Classique" from the Stallion's grille. The logo of Classique clearly features a male sperm fertilising a female egg. Manufacture of the Stallion has been picked up and continued by Declasse in GTA V.

►The Fixter is now listed as a GTA:Online bicycle on PS4 & XBO according to R☆ Social Club;

◆The Fixter also shows up right now under the PS3 & Xbox360 pages of the R☆ Social Club, so this "COULD" possibly mean that it is no longer black listed.

►The R☆ Social Club NOW has a PS4 and Xbox One Job/Playlist Section Available;

◆Below you can see the addition for yourself, but I do not think that the jobs or the "Number of time Played" is actually related to the System/Console Shown on Screen.

Maybe we will be able to have different Country Flags on the Marshall, unlike the Liberator which only has the American Flag, the Marshall has already been pictured with 2 different Flags.

[Alvarez]

I can't shake off the feeling that Kraken will feature torpedoes.

Yes we will be able to choose which flag goes on it, was watching someone stream it and they had a Marshall with the brazillian flag on it. I assume they give a list of countries to select when you purchase it (like choosing what color your car will be). Edited November 16, 2014 by FourFingersOfFun
