Next DLC Speculation Topic Mk IX

[Killer Whale]

Apparently and allegedly, you get the alien outfit when you retrieve all 10 Solomon Richards stolen items. Not the outfit you get from the stores, but the ones used by the NPCs.

The artwork is so pretty!

[EVOLUT7ON]

All of this summer’s gameplay and content updates are available in-game today with bonuses, awards and discounts featuring the new content to come across the summer and beyond - until the next major GTA Online update hits later this year: the next chapter in the GTA Online story and an all-new take on Heists.

 

R* is all-in for this winter update!)

That artwork screams Vice City vibes.

And if you have more quarters to rub together than friends, you’ll be chuffed to learn that Street Crimes: Gang Wars can now be played as a single-player game against AI opponents.

YES!
THANK YOU!!

I like the wording on this:

"until the next major GTA Online update hits later this year: the next chapter in the GTA Online story and an all-new take on Heists."

[rollschuh2282]

and thanks for that too!

When entering the Diamond Casino & Resort, punters will now be told how long they will need to wait before spinning the Lucky Wheel again. That’s the last time you’ll see a clock inside of The Diamond, though, that’s for sure.

So this update doesn't have a trailer? Interesting. Wonder what those new video's on Rockstar's YT channel are then. 

[Silent_x]

Does patch note already out?

Yeah that definitely sounds that there will be more than just a new Heist, damn that update is going to be massive.

Whats the DLC Like Is it good?

Average? Terrible? Dissappointing?

My impression so far:

• Very light on actual content (yacht missions fun tho)
• Good, varied selection of new vehicles (but not really my taste, Club excluded)
• Excellent minor changes (like new wheels)

New Wheels on LSC please x 99

IM HAPPY NOW

THANKS ROCKSTAR

[repl0id]

Gee Rockstar just how many FWD compacts do we need? Sold the Club without even customizing it just by taking it out on the street...FWD = no thanks...What is it, like the 4th FWD compact in the last 2 dlcs? euch

 

Didnt try the benny cars yet, gonna do that now, but so far from legendary and southern san andreas im only keeping the penumbra ff...rest got sold.

It's alright.  I've played two yacht missions and they're fun enough.  I was afraid it would be more business style sh*t.

QOL is fine, but it's obvious they had something else planned that got scrapped.  Probably getting folded in with Winter update I would assume.

[EkaSwede]

I wonder if those Drug Vehicle event things can happen in a solo I/O lobby...

1st announcement: heists in a new Location

2. Announcement: new Location not mentioned anymore

3. Announcement: new Location not mentioned anymore

 

 

My theory still grows, there wont be any new City/Island etc.... 

[OzakiLeona]

And again, there is thread for discussing current DLC, and it's not this one.

 

[Thomas The Dank Engine]

now THAT is some nice artwork

I think it's very fun to drive.

The Yosemite would be a great drag truck.

Yey looks like I won the giveaway! I surly don't need that money but my friend will be happy to have it! 

Anyone seen some new freeroam encounters? I noticed a blue dot on the map (near maze bank) and I got this message. I had to deliver the car to Sandy Shores. 10k reward...


Also any news on that SeaSparrow2 that was cut from the game? Do we know anything about it? Cause I think I know what they are planning to do with it. And I'm guessing - still no extra hangar space?

Spoiler

 

hmmm...if CnC wasn´t a thing...then why would they update the leftover arrest button prompt...

before:<Item>KEY_F</Item>

after:<Item>KEY_E</Item>

 

See? At least now we have some actual proof that they had some plans for it. BUT are you sure this isn't part of this dlc? Cause from the very beginning  I was saying it seems more like a glorified adversary mode / arcade game rather than a full dlc theme. Maybe its part of dripfeed?

I'm guessing re-themed as "Vigilantes 'n' Villains" or whatever, and contained in the "biggest update ever".

Or they will just wait till americans stop crying about "mah racist cops". Maybe its a good thing, at least they will have more time to polish that one. IF its a whole dlc theme and not just some adversary mode. Either way, I see no problem with giving them more time to work on it.

Assuming they stopped working on it and branched out the CNC update to make the LSSS update instead so it probably wasn't finished anyway.

If the next update is a small island / Santa Catalina I have a feeling they cut away some content from that one to make LSSS. I mean, new yacht missions? summer outfits? would surly fit the theme.

Sadly, nope. Maybe in future updates? In like...a half year?

Requesting a Pegasus Vehicle is more convenient than ever, with many additional spawn locations being added to reduce your travel time to the closest available location.

 

FINALLY. Lets all hope for some new jet spawn locations

No offence but why do you people consider the garage slots so important? 

I really dont get it.

I'm struggling for words... Go back to October 2013, fill up the single 10-car garage and take it from there...

 

I want to thank everyone for keeping the faith. Have a great day, folks. Time to skip my responsibilities, get online and form my own impressions.

Ok, so still no m8 or m5 based modern ubermacht, still no classic comet, but hey we got ugly van for customization and glendale custom. At least C8 is in game and club, but i wish it was more based on 2nd or 3rd generation golf, not first. No new weapons, because it's apparently more difficult to add at least one new rifle or pistol or couple of them, then to model whole new car. And those new yacht missions will be forgotten like casino ones once bonus week is over, because from what i've seen they are designed with aimbot swarming ai in mind yet again, so snack and armor spam is necessary to survive.

Well, good thing is we got all vehicles on day 1, but i don't know what they are planning to do until december, because it would be more viable for them to stretch dripfeed to next update.  Can't really complain with that and yea probably the best feature of update is bumping apartment limit, so now i can add even some  cars from previous updates to collection.

Hmm, anyone finds it a little strange that none of the two last Newswire articles that refer to this upcoming DLC have mentioned the "entirely new location" thing again? I can't help but wonder if this could be to dissuade all the speculation about the update including Liberty City or any other entirely new explorable area - as in, maybe they don't actually have something that impressive in the works?
