No way man. There has to be some sort of cut scene. I cant see them making us IAA agents and not giving us a cutscene to explain it. A phone call just wouldnt suffice. 

Nah, they will do this the same way they did the Yacht missions, phone calls from maybe Agent14/Karen/Rackman.

Me too... 

Lol I was completely ready to write an entire list of concepts and speculation for it with GTA IV references and all and then I read that it was going to be contact missions.

But hey at least we’ll probably get a very good winter DLC, I mean with LSSS most people were completely let down since it was only contact missions and then Cayo Perico came and that’s now considered one of the best DLC’s.

[Barrtek]

So since this is small/medium size DLC  and same thing was in 2020...
December will be huge? Heist with Michael and epsilon as antagonist? Movie studio as front for heist preps and equipment!

I sure hope they aren't thinking of giving the new consoles a small sized pack as a first update, that would be so flawed and stupid.

I do not care if The Contract was supposed to be the first update we get on these consoles, it's their problem.

Dude I am really good at this...

Rockstar must have looked at this before sharing that article and said "haha that guy is gonna be piiiiiiiisssed".

[VitoCorleone1992]

You guys should not take hasty conclusions...it's yet a bit soon to start show everything about the dlc theme per say. This newswire was more to mention the changes in terms of QoL.

Still, i feel sorry for RDO players. R* basically said in this newswire that they will prefer doing adv. modes rather big updates to RDO. That's tough.



Idk where's their sense between "to mantain a healthy RDO enviroments equal more adv. modes and not major themed content".

 

Poor The Professional. At this point the guy must be like this level of pissed while writting his speech for the next video rant about how poorly RDO is treated:

I'm hoping for a decent buff to air freight sales. Some of the best missions IMO.

 

Also makes the sky more interesting from below. I always enjoy seeing a busy sky from my various apartment and office windows

Yeah I literally started laughing when reading that RDO paragraph. They managed to word it out as if adding those few garbage telegram missions is almost better than a big themed update.

It looks like a mix of trolling and ice cold strike of harsh reality: "hey look, we just want to say that we want to promote a healthy environment here, but you also know that GTA Online is our golden egg's chicken right? So, we are giving you more telegram missions and adv. modes, to keep you guys not bitching about the game...oh, by the way, almost forgot, no major DLC's for you this year, thanks for playing RDO! You guys are amazing!"

I'd actually do more of those if the payout was worth it, but it's hilariously bad.

 

 

This sure does see to me as if they are adding the final touches to this game before they send it, basically addressing some of the stuff that were requested for years, improving the experience a little before they'll be like "GTAVI and GTA VI's Online are now the main thing".

Not only that, there's sell missions that you really need a partner, you will be just gunned down by npc helis and planes.

Oh I remember them, I've done them all, they were fun to do when Smuggler Run came out, it was also an interesting time in GTAO where the sky was a very busy place.

What's so exciting about it? That's not a big deal at all. Most people don't even know what an invite session is, they just click Online and try to prep Cayo in a pub. People who read the Newswire can make a solo lobby anyway.

Up to 10 crates you can do all sell missions solo. Some up to 25, too. There are tricks to completing the infamous Mogul mission: land somewhere offroad, shoot the gunners on the pursuing helis but keep the pilot alive. Or you can constantly fly up and down because the Mogul gains and loses altitude quicker than a helicopter.

Hmm I'm not so sure about sale with 4 havoks (you can get it even when selling a single crate). But then I've only done hangar for trade prices..

the big deal is you don’t have to session surf for 30 mins or do some complicate internet trick to get a solo session for selling anymore. That sh*t was annoying 

[Suq_Maidic]

Wow, this is the dream update I've been hoping for the past few years. Hopefully there's a decent amount of new content to buy now that the grind will be more fun.

[MaddenedGhost]

So Rockstar, good clothes.

 

That's it, that's the post.

[MekhiSkyline]

If theres a newer Camaro in the Dripfeed, alot of people are gonna be excited!

[MaddenedGhost]

I sure hope they fix the freaking ghosting effect, it's terrible.

We don't know at which level the sellings in private lobbies will affect the income. But it's reasonable and fair that it does. Not too mention that at least we already know that we will not get the "High Demand Bonus" that you get if you sell in a public session and there's players there. I would say that the profits in selling in private lobbies can drop like 1/3 of the profit.

 

But i'm more concerned about this issue of them allowing the sellings in private sessions, bcz to me, this means something deeper: R* maybe have noticed that shark cards have dropped at a level that makes them understand that the majority of people already have their bank accounts full of money and they are not doing any older bussiness sellings, so they now don't care in allowing them to be made in private sessions, which can also explain why all of a sudden after 9 years of game, is when they come up with gta+ monthly fee membership. And i guess it's is also a testing waters for them being even more toxic in GTA VI.

Looks like we are getting a IAA themed update 

 

Rockstar added IAA clothes with doomsday heist update

On PC is easy. Manager tab » network » gta v » put it in suspension for 10 seconds and that's it.

From LSIA the Havok mission can be done even when selling 25 crates. (8 Havoks in 30 mins IIRC; or maybe 6? Either way I had no trouble completing it.)

 

I've only ever helped a friend sell from Zancudo but we were 3 people and I did half the Havoks, calling a jet or Pegasus Hydra to return after the 2nd drop, and we were done in less than half the time. So I think it's possible from Zancudo, too.

 

But I generally would not recommend selling 25 crates solo, because some of the missions are indeed impossible.

This all sounds surreal. QoL update ppl wanted for years and what seems like a scraps of CnC, is all i wanted.

I think it will be the closest CnC that we can get. I don't see them actually letting us keep police vehicles or give us some cars with liveries and other customization options about cop stuff, but maybe we will have at least a garage inside IAA where we will have some IAA modified vehicles, with sirens, etc., and maybe near those, 10 slots for personal vehicles. That or if not a new property, maybe they will add up to two more apartments in order to give us more 20 slots for vehicles.

Even easier method if you're on a wired connection. Just unplug your ethernet cable for a couple seconds so that it switches you to your wifi, then plug it back in when the lobby has lagged out. Very useful when you're being spawned killed over and over by a modder.
