GTA Online: New Benefactor Streiter, Snowfall and Upcoming Festive Gifts

[Rafae]

 

In a world of compromise, the Benefactor Streiter sends a clear message - that despite what your lawyer says, you don't always have to settle. A perfect combination of sleek aesthetics and raw 4x4 power, the Streiter is an all-purpose Sports class vehicle that takes city and country life in its mile-eating stride with ease. Pick yours up at Southern San Andreas Super Autos today.

 

SNOWFALL COMES TO SOUTHERN SAN ANDREAS

 

As you peek out of the window of your Executive Office this morning, you'll notice something markedly different about the landscape. An overnight snowstorm has painted Southern San Andreas with a fresh, thick coat of the white stuff and the experts predict it'll be sticking around for the next few days. Pick up snowballs by simply hitting D-pad right or G on your keyboard and hurl a few at some unsuspecting locals for a quintessential holiday experience. And be sure to enter your snow-based shenanigans into the #FESTIVESURPRISE2017 Snapmatic Contest, accepting entries through January 1st.

 

PICK UP A FREE CAR & MORE THIS FESTIVE PERIOD

 

 

Whether youve been naughty or nice this year, there are gifts aplenty for all in GTA Online. Keep an eye out for a sled-load of holiday gifts - including today's 5 free liveries for the Thruster, a celebratory Christmas Eve present plus a gratis Albany Hermes Muscle Car (and much more!) for logging in this Monday, Christmas Day Dec 25th.

 

Read up on all the festive activity here, and be sure to follow Rockstar on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook to make sure you don't miss out on any of the goodies coming your way. Happy Holidays!

molotovs liveries look awful imo

I wait all freaking year for it to snow in Los Santos, and then my family always demands I spend most of the time home for Christmas. I hope they leave it longer than a week this time, or rather, I wish there were snow lobbies all year round.

[Haokizaru]

I tried to learn from my sentinel classic video and make this one much shorter, please enjoy:

Today was the 1st time I've experienced snow on a current gen console. It's so pretty. Me like it.

Same here lol my parents live about 4 hours north of me and expect me to make the trip every year. High speed Internet is also a thing of the future up there - I'll be logging on here at least to check out everyone's free Hermes... I'll have to wait for a sale to get me one though unfortunately.

[Lonely-Martin]

Car's not for me, but I'll nab it up one day. Feels like an SUV more than a sports car, certainly would look better in that garage than next to my Lynx and such... No complaints though, aside the lack of garage space to have an SUV garage in the first place, lol... Bastards!.

 

So much planned for the snow, lone time on missions/races. Team time on businesses (possibly), and definitely heists. Can't wait to have fun later.

 

And this, so many of us can understand this, I'm sure...

...If ever an Adversary Mode was to universally get over...

 

A simple Snowball fight one, no weapons, nothing... Would be just f*cking awesome!.

 

So many locations that could be used, the Forrest up north, the golf course, urban areas, anything.

 

I know there's a creator, I know we can team up and make our own game too.

 

But a week long 2x event involving such a simple premise could be gold this time of year, but better. Players that do miss out through family commitments, though they may miss the freely made adventures of the snow. It's there for when we return too, just to get a sweet taste of the fun.

 

A missed opportunity I feel to create a game mode that'd probably be loved by so many.

[Volganor]

The best part of the year for many, me included, is finally here. I was asleep when the snow came, but I'll definitely be checking it out later.

 

It's a nice touch that snowfall came so close to the Winter Solstice and I can't wait to take some very nice pictures in it later. Plus, completing the Doomsday Heist in this weather should be very special.

 

Enjoy your holidays, everyone.

I'll be spending Christmas at my families, so I'm hoping the Hermes will remain available for at least a few days after Monday.

[SHADOW OPS]

Damnit Hermes. Might need 4 of you now.

Question about the Hermes - is it 1 free car per character?

Just once regardless of how many characters you have

It's not a holiday vehicle, it's just free for logging in on Christmas. It'll remain in the game afterwards, at a price of 535k though.

Haha, I think I have to come home at least to get the Hermes on monday. A touch worried about this celebritory Christmas eve gift though... I think I have to travel with my PS4 so I can at least try to log on if its something good.

Thanks for letting me know! Money isn't a problem for me, so I'll gladly pay for this beauty. I'm just glad I won't miss it.

If I'm not mistaken I'm pretty sure the "celebratory gift" is the fireworks launcher.

[Semaj 2JZ♢]

Hello, snow. You have been missed.

[Shadowfennekin]

Glad another dripfeed item is out of the way.

 

Man, I hope the Thruster goes on sale soon.... I really want it and the Stromberg, but I'll never use them as much as I do the Khanjali, Akula, and Deluxo.

[REXX]

Among the standard horns, I could swear I have never heard this one before. Maybe its exclusive to the Streiter?

 

 

[Florpus]

Think I may buy the Streiter since I am a sucker for cars with oversized wheels, and this looks especially nice to cruise around in.

[M.K.N.]

R* apparently can't fix their servers because I can't get on. Wonderful.

Or the free orbital shot.

[Gaffa]

Those stupid high-as-a-kite bastards putting the Streiter in the Sports class. Man oh man oh man.

[Kingorion88]

When they say xmas eve and day, do they mean in US time? So tuesday and wednesday? Because in new Zealand xmas eve is sunday and xmas is tues. This sh*t always confuses me lol.

Best Christmas joke ever. Should be in a cracker.

Wait, what? How can your Christmas eve be on Sunday and Xmas day on Tuesday...? That alone makes zero sense lol.

[Rafae]

If your Christmas is Tuesday then your Christmas Eve automatically becomes Monday

 

No way around it lol

[AboveAndBeyoncé]

Snow looks lovely will be taking many pics

[Opzeker]

If your Christmas is Tuesday then your Christmas Eve automatically becomes Monday

 

No way around it lol

In the Netherlands it's Christmas Eve on Sunday, Monday is 1st Christmas Day and Tuesday is 2nd Christmas Day.
