OK what has "The Lowriders Update" changed?

[EDANBURGH]

I cant stand the left aligned licence plates, wonder why they dont fix that

 

 

They aren't left aligned. It's eight potential characters so an uneven number will always be off centre.

[Rocket Skates]

Wow! Two years and I never knew there was a real tire under there or that that cover could be removed!

 

Was introduced with the latest update being able to open up doors etc. on your vehicles I'd say.

But is there an option now to open it if it's your PV?

Yes.

This should double as a spoiler and increase traction. lol

i had the same reaction like a year ago when a cop rammed my now defunct type-z and the back pop up!

[Cavot]

I'm now curious to know if the tire can come out?

I don't believe so. It's a static object.

[CrazyFerret]

Does any one know if the 25% rebate includes 10 Car Garages.... or does it have to be an Apartment WITH a 10 Car garage attached?

 

Cause I could use an extra garage, but I don't need another apartment! lol

[..GhosT]

 

 

Apparently the Roosevelt cant be modded anymore?

 

 

 

Several people have reported issues with not being able to modify some of their personal vehicles after the update. idk if theres been a solution

 

 

I have a feeling its all people with Dupped vehicles, or vehicles with modifications they should not have.

 

 

I have a cageless merryweather mesa with yankton plates and i can still drive that into LSC, so thats not the case.

Its not do to "...vehicles with modifications they should not have..." so I am with you I think its "...all people with Dupped vehicles..." because I can modify my Roosevelt and mine is Original, I Purchased it.

[GTPorsche]

The issue with vehicles unable to be modified is related to Patriotic tire smoke. I've got that on my Sandking and Sovereign and neither one can be modified now.

Okay, I would say NO, but then the last 2 make me say YES, so I'm hesitant to give you a certain answer: It does say "...four Apartments or Garages..." but then "...property with a 10-car garage..." so I assume they are using the word property to avoid saying the words "Apartments or Garages" over and over, so this does make me think that you could "... just purchase any property with a 10-car garage", that includes "Apartments or Garages."

[below are the 3 quote I mention above]

"...four Apartments or Garages."

 

"...25% REBATE on your next qualified purchase of a property with a 10-car garage."

 

"... just purchase any property with a 10-car garage."

The issue with vehicles unable to be modified is related to Patriotic tire smoke. I've got that on my Sandking and Sovereign and neither one can be modified now.

Oh, nothing I own has that, well my Sovereign did but I sold it when they took its Matte PaintJob. Now it appears to have even been a better move.

Not sure, neither of my characters Roosevelts have patriot smoke, but I purchased BOTH Roosevelts so I know its not an issue with duping.

[GTPorsche]

Does it have any timed DLC modifications on it?

[fakebasedjo]

Not sure if anybody's already mentioned this but ever since the update the Vagos almost always appear in lime green Cavalcades when doing contact missions. Not sure if that's a bug or intentional. I kinda like it

 

Tested this on Deal Breaker and No Hay Bronca

[The Chosen Undead]

I don't know if this has been posted about already, but has anyone noticed that you can no longer drive the update cars added to the next gen version of the games traffic spawn list? For example, I was driving around in the Online and saw a panto. Could not drive it, locks you out. Same with a Rhapsody I found later. What's the point of having these cars spawn if they are undrivable?

On a side note, has anyone had problems with the stock faction getting caught on the ground everywhere? Like, you drive over any bumps and the thing just launches.

►Today through Sunday, October the 25th: Get a one-time 25% rebate on any property with a 10-car garage.

Wait, what is this building ? (top - middle one)

It's supposed to be a property with a 10 car garage, but I don't recognize it.

And it's not a new property added with the update.

 

 

 

I found it....

 

Its the "Integrity".

 

It is across the street from the IAA Headquarters Tower; located at Pillbox Hill and Integrity Way; right next to Pillbox Hill Medical Center; which is the building seen in the left edge of the image.

 

There are no Dynasty8 signs around it, so its not available... F* Rockstar for putting it in the picture; thats false advertising!

True, it could be included in the upcoming Halloween Surprise. R* should honestly just add a bunch of new high end apartments in more buildings though, the ones we currently have are old and I'd like to see some more variety.

Nothing to do with patriot tire smoke, I'm gonna say you're vehicles are duped or were duped for someone else and the system can't tell which is original so its punishing everyone with it. My custom Speedo and custom mariachi tornado can enter perfectly fine no issues

[sebasbmxer]

cool caps that we get this weekend!! but when do i get it on friday because i logged in to online now ut i didnt get the first cap, or do i get it if its friday everywhere in the world?

[The Gator]

Just checked out the Integrity apartment, and it's actually interesting. The entrance to the apartment is on the upper level of the street, then the garage entrance is on the lower level, across the street from the bus depot where Pegasus vehicles spawn.

 

Really hoping they add it, I'd drop my Murrieta Heights garage for it.

Just took my Roosevelt on my 2nd character that was dupped to LSC and it works fine. So I really have no idea what the problem is.

[Malcot]

On a side note, has anyone had problems with the stock faction getting caught on the ground everywhere? Like, you drive over any bumps and the thing just launches.

Yes, it's really starting to annoy me! I think it's actually the exhaust that catches. If you drive along and pull down the right stick so the camera zooms underneath you'll see.

[Absolut]

Not sure if its been mentioned...

 

But I was doing a run of Lester's Denial of Service job; trying to get another Dub2...

 

I noticed a couple things that were different.

 

1. The mission music has been changed.

2. It was game time Sunday locked at noon; and I got 4 Dubsta 2's. Got one at Airport LSC, one at Burton LSC, and 2 spawned at La Mesa LSC... all within 45 minutes real time; which has in the past been near impossible for a Sunday game time to even get 1 to spawn within an hour...

Guess that i need to be driving Dub2 to make it happen?

 

On potshot, baddies were driving lime green 70's-80's Cadillac-style yachts. They looked quite cool, wouldn't mind one with hydraulics TBH.

[Saikolemon]

Has anyone noticed that the size of the minimap changes depending on the type of aircraft you're in? I think they also change with the altitude but got to test that further.
