Rockstar Newswire "New Updates Coming Soon"

[jdv95]

 

so no release date?

Is it coming tomorrow or will it take weeks like last time R* released details of an update without a release date

Yeah, we don't even have an items list yet. Don't think its coming tomorrow... yeah the newswire article Said something in the lines of "2 new big updates coming in the next few weeks and months"

Business ownership? Sounds like a glorified and more expensive series of escort missions. Im going to buy product,than I have to go get it and safely escort it back to my warehouse and Ill lose money for any damage it takes? Also curious to see the prices of the HQ,warehouses and product. I'm sure they will be pricey and the return not so great.

 

"You’ll be working with your team from a selection of big new properties that serve as both headquarters for your Organization and warehouses for your hot merchandise.... and watch for raids on your warehouses between shipments!"

 

You won't own them, you'll be "renting" them while you're a VIP. How would you share a raidable warehouse with another organisation?

[Dr Labuschagne]

The amount of drugs the will be blown up, IS TOO HIGH!!!

[SinZer0s]

I'm too poor for this sh*t

 

Now i won't be able to sell drugs like pablo escobar

I'm also worried about the very things you said about this Finance and Felony update. i hope they correctly balanced everything. because i could already think of obvious stuff R* would miss. but we will see.

[MrTroubleMaker]

Nice! so new stuff! I wonder how much these new "warehouse" properties will cost.

[Niyologist]

 

 

Here's hoping.

 

It's pretty obvious that Cunning Stunts will be involved. It's heavily implied.

And we're renting...

lets say you have a crew of 8 players in a lobby including you. ya'll wouldn't go against each others organizations( as only 4 can be in a organization) but work together in helping each other protect warehouses and trafficking despite the other 4 crew members are apart of another Organization. this i can see being exploited by an abundance of crew members being in the same lobby. hopefully not.

"You'll be working with your team from a selection of big new properties that serve as both headquarters for your organization and warehouse for your hot merchandise​"

 

So we'll just be working from them while being a VIP/bodyguard, not owning them.

properties.

 

The way I imagine it, we'll just get a random HQ assigned to our organisation or we'll be able to choose one but it'll be temporary, not an owned property.

 

Why would they explicitly call them "properties that serve as...", if they aren't actual in-game properties though? It makes more sense for them to be ownable, both from R*'s wording and from the perspective of in-game mechanics

I can see these money-making opportunities and the assets required to run them be very steep in price.

 

And the hq/warehouses might be permanent properties owned by only in operation during VIP timer and the more money the VIP has at his disposal the greater the gains and assets she or she can command from location of operation, to tools that can be used, and to the types of wares the organization can actually traffic.

 

I'm very eager for this update and hope it hits before my Birthday, the 25th of May!

But that can already be done, a warehouse wouldn't change anything. (I've only seen it once though, where two organisations helped each other during piracy prevention. Very hard to win against 8 players defending the same yacht!)

If you had seen my other posts you would know I was referring to the Dukes being possibly made into a stunt car variant seeing as its the Academy's mascot.

More PvP to cater the Call of Duty crowd. Not interested at all.

 

More PvP.

I think it would be no way of stopping Organization/Crew teaming efficiently but i don't think that would be a major problem. the true problem i'm worried about is if we have pre-selected vehicles for drug trafficking that aren't explosive resistant because people will be in jets.

So PvP support translates to Call of Duty crowd support? XD

Ah. Okay. Sorry. I hope so too.

I actually like the idea of dedicated stunt races, because it separates them from regular races.

 

e.g. "Join Race" or "Join Stunt Race"

 

And when you get an invite from the lobby to join a random race, you'll see from there if it's a stunt race or not.

[Hunter]

So, I'm imagining it to be a bit like heists, but in public free mode sessions.

 

What happens if there's a jet feeling bloodthirsty though? Imagine trying to do, let's say, the Convoy set up, only you've got someone in a Lazer/Hydra constantly dive bombing you?

 

I'm kind of thinking too much into it, but it could be a problem lol.

This is the same problem I've been discussing on here which is why if their are convoys we need Explosive armor so that jets can't take them out in just 3-5 sweeps especially since we could be traveling to open field of Blaine County on some occasions.

Check the damn newswire !!

WTF IS THAT

 

This is some san andreas multiplayer stunt sever sh*t.

 

As someone who used to mainly play on the Madoshi stunt server before it went tits up, this pleases me.

Exactly what I thought, however I didn't really like the idea at first since it's not the most realistic thing ever but at least those stupid races will be separated from actual races now and besides they made loads already, at least now it will look alright

[RedSouls]

Finally something else besides Benny overpriced car mods!

 

Not that i hate Benny tho, it's just nice to have some change now and then..

How about a nice PMP 600 R*? And letting me drop dumps and buses on players' heads again with the cargobob? That would be nice.

 

Looking forward to ramming players in those wacky tunnels though.

Is this actually happening?! The future looks bright for GTA: Online, I'm glad I renewed my playstation subscription on the weekend

Yup. Finally some meaningful content.

Seeing as how there's gonna be new Adversary Modes, I'll simply delete them on sight. Many players stays away from them nowadays. Unless I'm seeing new Contact Missions, or maybe a Mission Creator (and limit the reward cap as well), Adversary Modes are ignored as always (unless if they're the ones that catches an interest).

 

EDIT: Misread OP's post. Had to redo my post.

Waited so long, I may end up expecting way too much. No, not gonna do that. Just sit back and enjoy what comes.

[DBrasco]

This looks quite promising and I'm looking forward to it. It's a definitely a good thing that the VIP stuff is expanded upon and I'm sure the stunts & vehicles will be fun. Hopefully they finally open up the casino later this year. I'm sure mansions will be made available at some point as well.

 

I'm glad and relieved new updates are comming. I wasn't done with this game but if R* pulled the plug out I would've moved on.

Don't get too comfortable yet; they're adding Adversary Modes even more, which will get ignored as usual. But yes, this update is huge, so I'm looking forward to fill in more cars in apartments, if R* gives another garage/apartment slot for it.

[rlk232]

I'm hoping this is actually delayed until the 24th or later. I'll have a few three-day weekends coming up so...
