Event weekend appears to have started

[Cavot]

 

We're back this weekend with a fresh injection of high-end retail therapy for the well-established high-rollers and the nouveau riche with the ILL-GOTTEN GAINS Event Weekend: Part Two. Starting today Friday, July 10th and lasting through Sunday, July 12th, spoil yourself with an assortment of in-game bonuses, including a Double GTA$ Racing Event Playlist, numerous opportunities to earn Double RP, three chances to achieve eternal notoriety and tremendous spoils in sweepstakes and contests, plus a whole lot more...

DOUBLE GTA$ IN ALL RACES WITH EXTRA BONUSES

To help keep your newly acquired designer Dual Driving Loafers planted firmly on the gas pedal this weekend, get Double GTA$ in all Races. Also, all Race bonuses - Slipstreams, Overtakes, entering 1st place, maintaining 1st place for a whole lap, running a clean lap, making the fastest lap or establishing your personal best lap - will pay out Double RP throughout the weekend.

We've also assembled a special Event Playlist filled with Rockstar Created and Rockstar Verified Races chosen specifically to test drive the brand new vehicles featured in the Ill-Gotten Gains Update: Part Two. The Great Adventurer is perfect for those looking to take the Progen T20 for a spin, and you can certainly flex your muscle in Grass Route and Casino Royale. (On Xbox 360 and PS3 The Life Invader Circuit replaces Casino Royale - get your lobby Host to switch to Muscle Car class if you want to get behind the wheel of the mighty Coil Brawler). To round things out, we finish with the fan-favoritePower Trip, which makes for a perfect opportunity to rev up your Dinka Vindicator. To roll directly into these, just hit the Event button during the GTAV loading screen.

Finally, if you think you got your Progen T20 game locked tight already (or you've been beaten 10 times in a row by the same player, and want to make the next defeat hurt a little less) take advantage of a complimentary $1,000 betting stake in Races this weekend, free to place on whomever you choose.

DOUBLE RP DEATHMATCHES, GOLF & TENNIS

Come to grips with the dead-shot Marksman Pistol or try on new Knuckle Duster melee weapons this weekend in Double RP Deathmatches. Since the Knuckle Dusters will already have you working on your forehand game, head over to the courts at the Richman Hotel and serve yourself up some Double RP in Tennis - or hit the lush fairways at the Los Santos Golf Club instead for Double RP while you try to get that elusive hole-in-one on the 6th.

EXCLUSIVE T-SHIRTS FOR COMPLETING DAILY OBJECTIVES

In addition to RP and GTA$ Bonuses for Racing, industrious players will be rewarded this weekend with a different exclusive T-shirt each day when they complete their three Daily Objectives. To find out what these are each day, head into GTA Online and keep an eye out for the notification that pops up on screen. From there, head to your Interaction Menu and select the Daily Objectives option.

 

Complete Daily Objectives this weekend to unlock the Gold Dis T-shirt (Friday), Le Biatch T-shirt (Saturday) and NS Print T-shirt (Sunday).

 

Daily Objectives this weekend have been cherry picked so that you can take advantage of everything the Ill-Gotten Gains Update: Part Two has to offer (and earn your GTA$25,000 daily completion bonus). Objectives are randomized, but keep an eye out for opportunities to participate in a Sea Race in the new Lampadati Toro, or hit some Stunt Jumps using the KERS speed injection feature on the Dinka Vindicator.

GRATIS GOLD RESPRAYS & PEGASUS DELIVERIES

All this weekend, Gold Metal resprays from Los Santos Customs will be absolutely free on everything, including the rough and ready Coil Brawler and the sleek Invetero Coquette BlackFin. Also, all Pegasus orders for luxury vehicle services are on the house. And don't forget about the Legendary Motorsport one-time 25% rebate for qualifying purchases that's happening through next week July 15 (details).

#illgottengains ROCKSTAR EDITOR CONTEST

If you've got some charismatic Crewmates who are eager to show off their luxurious spoils, gather them together to create your next Rockstar Editor short film in our #illgottengains Rockstar Editor contest. We want to see how you have put the hard-earned cash from the GTA Online Heists to good use, whether it's showing off a full runway show from Ponsonbys or simply tearing down the Rockford Hills strip in style, we'll be looking for the best and the brightest from the Rockstar Editor community to celebrate excess and graft in the form of stylish video clips.

Prizes for winning include a custom G910 Orion Spark Gaming Keyboard and a G510 Proteus Core Gaming Mouse, both laser-engraved with the winner's Social Club ID and the Rockstar Editor logo. The grand prize winner and two runner-ups will also receive a deluxe prize pack of official GTAV gear and a $100 gift card for the Rockstar Warehouse.

HOW TO ENTER

Create a video in the Rockstar Editor using GTAV PC and publish it to Rockstar Games Social Club via the in-game menu. From there, head to the My Videos page on Social Club, and tag your video with the word "illgottengains" to enter it into the contest. A few important points:

• Your video must be between 2 and 5 minutes in length.
• The video must be published to Rockstar Games Social Club and tagged with the word 'illgottengains' between now and 11:59pm ET on August 3rd to be eligible.
• Void where prohibited, see the official rules for more information.
• The video must be made entirely using the Rockstar Editor. We know that many advanced Rockstar Editor video creators like to use additional third party editing software but in order to keep this competition fair for all entrants, we require that you only use the Rockstar Editor in producing the video.

#illgottengains2 GTA$1M SNAPMATIC CONTEST

We know there are also quite a few Snapmatic shutterbugs out there who've put in work stacking their chips from doing Heists. We're giving five photographers the chance to win a cool GTA$1Million to put towards their material desires, simply by snapping stunning and clever photographs of you flaunting Ill-Gotten Gains Update 2 content with your iFruit camera and tagging the photo on Social Club with “illgottengains2”.

Completing your daily objectives gives you a pop up that says "New unlock, new reward t-shirt unlocked". Some players have already reported that this shirt is the gold Dis t-shirt. Although this appears to be bugged as me and other players have not unlocked anything new even though the prompt was given saying a new shirt was unlocked. This may be a new method by Rockstar to unlock special t-shirts.

The playlist is 4 jobs long.

[DaTwista]

Oh f*ck that, now I must do races this weekend for decent money.

 

Oh f*ck that.

 

FFS, R* had this whole double RP thing on all jobs last weekend, why the f*ck can't we have a double $$ on everything for once.

[TestX]

i'm on PS3 i can confirm this. just restarted the game and there's a featured list and races are 2x money as OP stated. don't know about the rest but it doesn't appear like the double money is across all jobs.

[DavidTheThird]

I'm on PC Version - I just finished a random sea race (part of Daily Objectives) and I unlocked a new T-Shirt - Fake Dix Gold T-Shirt! Without picking up any crate!

Edited July 10, 2015 by DavidTheThird

[DaTwista]

Double RP on DMs as well.

[Scuba 21]

I'm on PC Version - I just finished a random sea race (part of Daily Objectives) and I unlocked a new T-Shirt - Fake Dix Gold T-Shirt! Without picking up any crate!

Wonder if this event will play out like last year's when all you had to do was log into online each day to be awarded the shirts?

 

That would save them from turning on special crate drops and subsequently increasing random event frequencies.

And doing so would keep our legit money earning in check.

 

I'm not seeing the armored trucks, smuggler planes, Lester distraction zones, etc. at 5 min intervals.

[Giantsgiants]

Time to fire up the good old UDP Unicorn then.

 

Edited July 10, 2015 by Giantsgiants

[Cavot]

Just completed the play list, wasn't to bad actually, was pretty fun.

[UKPortista]

Been lobby hopping but I haven't seen any Special Crate notifications yet.

[Bolatsi]

No crate drops here either. Also the freemode events aren't frequent. So they have come up with a diffferent way of earning these? Great!

 

Do all the races earn you a shirt, or what?

[Quinn_flower]

fun is it droping good sir?

[Cavot]

I'm on PC Version - I just finished a random sea race (part of Daily Objectives) and I unlocked a new T-Shirt - Fake Dix Gold T-Shirt! Without picking up any crate!

Had the Sea Race as a daily objective and just completed it. No shirt, Xbox One.

[Khumaro]

I just completed all the daily objectives and i unlocked a t-shirt, now i'm gonna check it.

 

Edit: Yes I got the Fake Dix Gold Logo as soon i completed all my daily objectives. The t-shirt sucks btw.

Another event weekend. Yay. Time to see how this one goes.

[UKPortista]

Haven't seen a single freemode event either. It's dead out there...

[Deluxe89]

The rockstar services are unavaible... Here we go again...

[Bolatsi]

So special t-shirts for completing daily objectives? hmm...

[Quinn_flower]

fake dix? did that dropped already?

[DaTwista]

You have to complete all three daily objectives a day to get a shirt.

[Bolatsi]

fake dix? did that dropped already?

 

This one has a golden logo?

Edited July 10, 2015 by Bolatsi

[Khumaro]

fake dix? did that dropped already?

 

It seems you unlock it by completing the daily objectives. No special crates, no high frequency random events.

 

 

 

This one has a golden logo?

 

 

Yeah, it's a black t-shirt with the gold "Dis" logo.

[Bolatsi]

I just completed my dailies 3 hours ago... Too early I guess..

[Sentinel Driver]

I did my daily objectives and the game said I unlocked a new T-shirt but I haven't seen the T-Shirt in my clothes section yet

[Cavot]

Odd, says I unlocked a new t-shirt after I completed the daily objectives but didn't see anything new.

[PatG]

Just completed my daily objectives list and got a shirt. Still have to check it out tho.

 

Edit: Got the Fake Dix Gold T-Shirt

Some people reported having to "buy" them for free at a clothing store last time.

I did my daily objectives and the game said I unlocked a new T-shirt but I haven't seen the T-Shirt in my clothes section yet

[Guest]

Already completed my daily objectives this morning. Just rebooted my game and I still don't have the shirt. Time to contact R* Support?

Yep, I can confirm that. You have to go to store and "buy" it.
