If it’s gonna be surprise then it’ll be pretty bad updates just like other surprise updates

I totally agree with you if it’s going to be a surprise update.

Tbh, that January 16' surprise update was surprisingly good, considering they gave us a taste of the first Benny street car tuning.

You guys are worrying too much. Do you really think Rockstar would pass up an opportunity to make profit during Christmas? It's likely going to be announced today or Monday, if not then it'll be a surprise update like SSASSS. And if not next week, then the one after that. There's simply no way they're going to skip a December update.

Posts like these should be an instant infraction. They're so redundant and baseless.

QA-BLOODY-BETA has been updated. Stop saying GTA:O is dead.

Well maybe its not dead for new players but for me and many others it was dead for a long time. And if this next dlc doesn't add something significant, some big gameplay changing feature (which is very unlikely) then it will stay dead... another OP vehicle with guns or crate-grind with boring missions won't change much. 

But hey, maybe now that RDR2 is out they have more people with time to work on gtao again? Probably not but there's still hope...

Preach!

 

I can't believe so many people on here can't understand this...

 

Rockstar would never pass up on the opportunity to release an update around Christmas. You gotta be an absolute moron to think they wouldn't give us a December update. There will be an update in December every year until GTA 6 releases. That's a fact.

But GTA Online is dead, creatively speaking.

 

We're not going to get something meaningful and game changing anymore, it's always more money sinks and more power creep.

 

I mean, the Oppresor Mk II is as uncreative as it gets, it's literally an Oppressor 2: Electric Boogaloo instead of being based on another pop culture reference.

Here's the thing;

 

How much DLC have we had since Heists that was originally planned for Single Player?

- Lowriders

- Something to do with Maze Bank Tower, most likely Import/Export where you got paid market value instead of commission.

- Doomsday Heist (sidenote, have you ever gone into would would be the planning room during The Data Breaches finale? The difference is pretty interesting)

 

Excluding gametype and shopping updates, what else have we had?

- Finance & Felony (Crates, freeroam jobs)

- Bikers (Passive, freeroam missions and jobs)

- Import/Export (the most unique business, contact missions)

- Gunrunning (Passive, contact missions)

- Smugglers Run (Crates)

- After Hours (Extra Passive Warehouse with the Terrorbyte stapled on, notice Tony makes no mention of it, he only discusses the Storage Space of your club).

 

That's 6 business updates, it took 5 of them in a row for the formula to be broken up by a Heist update. Given how vocal we've been about getting tired of copy paste businesses, I'll be very surprised if Rockstar think they can carry on like that all the way up to GTA 6

6.

 

- We need another set of Heists, they don't have to be linked together in an overarcing plot like Doomsday, hell, they don't even have to be unlocked in order, but they need to be BIG jobs. Like a Casino, the Union Depository 2, the Fleeca (beta heist) Sprint.

- We need another Storyline update like Lowriders.

I’m now afraid to say that it’s gonna be small update with expensive cars... no new gameplay changes

An I'll Gotten Gains 3 wouldn't be bad as a final update, but it has to include Mansions as an endgame item for Online, with the customization like the Custom High End Apartments.

[Tez2]

I think the Terrorbyte was introduced because R* wasn't planning to add any more businesses after "After Hours" update.

I may be wrong but I think all what we are getting is more adversary modes or new missions/heists/new freemode events, basically nothing to do with a new business.

I think it's important to remember that there's no reinventing the wheel. What progress comes next is all reiteration and improvements based upon the original material, and so it is with the development of GTA Online. The power creep and money drain increase is natural as more and better tools arrive on scene. If we were all still doing release-era contact missions for our main source of income it would be a very different landscape (and probably one actually devoid of players), but we have replayable Heists, income-generating "businesses", and dozens of opportunities to make money out of nothing. That money is then spent on tools that make the grind easier. Creativity in the scope of the game is still there, but it's following a set pattern. We're not going to see a genre shift or a major gameplay overhaul when Rockstar has obviously settled on this as GTA.

 

We come back to the point of people wanting something different than what there is, of course. GTA offers so much, but isn't realistically going to cater to everybody's individual tastes and desires. Rockstar will do what they want, and while the community does have some say in the development of Online, there's no telling what the plan is. But saying that they're creatively bankrupt as a whole is ridiculous, especially basing it only upon a single vehicle (which, despite being derivative of the Deluxo and Oppressor, does retain its own dynamic and niche). There's lots more Rockstar can do, and for those of the community who are tired, there's plenty of other games out there.

Hope you're right. I am so over the stupid business updates.

Impossible! It's not like GTA V's marketing put an intense focus on Heists or anything.

Rip if more adversary modes but I’d accept more heist (good way to introduce the casino)

Tbh it would be absolutely insane if they even thought going back to the supply/product/crate grind model after two years of repetitive usage, is a good idea.

Especially since they wrapped it all up and tied it with After Hours.

Last day of hope for me. No reason why they should break their december update routine

Give it 2 more hours. And if not today, they might just wait until the day of release.

 

We could be super wrong in our anticipation and a release might be on the 18th. You never know.

Yeah I think the 18th is unlikely. If we get nothing today it will likely be announcement Monday/DLC Tuesday or just surprise DLC release on Tuesday.

I've got plenty of money to spend this time around, so it's likely nothing I'll want, with my luck. 

So: probably heists.

If it’s a small update with few expansive cars then ima stay in rdr2

I remember noticing the planning room was different, I forget what is was. Anyway what are you suggesting the difference was in aid of?

You hope he's right that it's a small update? I thought you were insisting it will be huge?

[SantasLittleHelper]

Both QA Beta branches were last updated 2 days ago... That could be a good sign. But... I strongly believe the D-Day is on the 18th of December. It feels odd... announcing this year's largest DLC (probably) a day before the release date.
