Updated *UNOFFICIAL* Compiled List, from R☆, R☆SC, GTAforums Contributors, & GTA Online Gameplay

(I will try to keep this post up to date as long as this forum is alive and kicking)

 

*The San Andreas Mercenaries Update is LIVE Now!*

 

Team up with some of Los Santos’ most daring guns-for-hire and take back the city in GTA Online: San Andreas Mercenaries. Lead the fight against Merryweather Security’s forces as one of the Los Santos Angels and engage in explosive guerilla operations while conducting high-stakes, high-flying raids all across the state.

Charlie Reed’s got an impressive résumé — beyond his work as an aircraft mechanic in the Hangar, he’s an ex-military operator with significant experience assisting in various Heists around Los Santos over the years. He’s also been working on a plan called Project Overthrow — a multipronged attack on Merryweather Security to knock them well and truly off their perch.

 

The way Charlie sees it, Merryweather have amassed enough defense contracts, illegal R&D, and good old-fashioned criminal rackets that ripping them off in a series of high-flying schemes is a win-win scenario for him and your smuggling operation. Project Overthrow features six new missions for 1–4 players that will put your mercenary skills to the ultimate test: conducting reconnaissance, recovering valuable equipment, performing audacious rescues, and fighting your way through the teeth of Merryweather’s well-oiled war machine.

Project Overthrow is launched from the new Operations Terminal upgrade for the Mammoth Avenger, available at Warstock Cache & Carry.

 

Also initiated from the new Operations Terminal, the Los Santos Angels can take on three private contracts in daring LSA Operations. Each of these presents an opportunity to acquire an Outfit for first-time completion and rotate through optional bonus objectives with each replay for an additional pay bump.

These include jumping out of a chopper and onto the deck of an aircraft carrier under cover of darkness, calling in a bombing run, and using an EMP blast to knock out a government installation. LSA Operations can also be launched by calling Charlie directly from your iFruit after your Operations Terminal has been installed.

 

It’s a new day for smuggling operations, as Hangar properties are being upgraded to host a suite of new abilities and features. A fully equipped Hangar can now store and customize the Avenger, as well as upgrade your personal arsenal with an Mk II Weapons Workshop.

Charlie’s ex-military associates have also taken to hanging out around the Hangar: Ask dishonorably discharged helicopter pilot and recent Los Santos Angels recruit Rooster McCraw to source cargo for a small fee.

You’ll also find free Snacks and Weapon pickups around the property to help you prepare for any fight ahead, and those looking to sharpen their skills at Flight School will find a convenient access point added inside the Hangar.

Four new Source Missions have been added to the Free Trade Shipping Co. on the Hangar laptop alongside three new Sell Missions — all for smugglers who prefer the driver’s seat to the cockpit. Perform deep sea dives, oust private militaries, and more in this expansive update to the Air Freight Cargo business by choosing the Land option when launching.

 

New Avenger Upgrades:

The utility of the Mammoth Avenger has expanded in a big way. Owning a Facility (or Hangar) is no longer required to own and operate an Avenger, which can be called out to your location via the Services section of the Interaction Menu. Those who do own a Hangar with a Workshop will be able to customize their sky fortress with new mil-spec upgrades, including front-facing machine guns and missiles, as well as a Stealth Module or a Missile Lock-On Jammer that can be activated while on autopilot.

The Operations Terminal is an interior upgrade that unlocks access to Project Overthrow and the Los Santos Angels Operations detailed above. This can be purchased directly from Charlie in the Hangar, or when customizing your Avenger in the Charlie Upgrades menu. If you’re down to join the fight but don’t yet own a Hangar, the Operations Terminal can be purchased when upgrading the Avenger on the Warstock Cache & Carry website.

Another exciting new upgrade available for the Avenger is the Mammoth Avenger Thruster. If you’ve left your mobile sky base on Autopilot high above the city but you’re stranded on the ground, simply call the Mammoth Avenger Thruster directly to your location using the Interaction Menu. When nearing the rear cargo bay of the Avenger, hit D-pad right to dock inside.


NEW VEHICLES:

~Grotti Itali GTO Stinger TT

The Grotti Itali GTO Stinger TT (Sports) comes equipped with an illustrious pedigree, built on a bedrock of exotic cool and decades of Italian innovation — it’s the next generation of imported luxury, and it’s available now from Legendary Motorsport and the Luxury Autos showroom.

Bring your Grotti Itali GTO Stinger TT up to code by visiting Imani in the Agency Vehicle Workshop and outfitting it with Armor Plating, Slick Mines, Remote Control Unit, and a Missile Lock-On Jammer.


~Maibatsu MonstroCiti
The Maibatsu MonstroCiti’s (Off-Road) reputation already precedes it by several thousand miles. It’s a family-friendly SUV that leads a double life as a sporty competitor capable of summiting any and all terrain in its path. It was a cult classic in Japan for years, and now it’s destined to find its way into the hearts of local drivers in no time flat.

Pick up a Maibatsu MonstroCiti from Southern San Andreas Super Autos or at the Luxury Autos showroom and equip it with Imani Tech upgrades like the Remote Control Unit and a Missile Lock-On Jammer.

 

~More New Vehicles
Additional new vehicles have been added with today’s update, ranging from the boxy off-road brawn of the Declasse Walton L35 and Vapid Ratel, to the stealth capable F-160 Raiju fighter jet, Mammoth Streamer216 propeller plane, and more.

~Up coming Vehicles

Next week, look forward to the next generation of the Bravado Buffalo as the EVX hits showroom floors. Plus, all limited-time vehicles from Los Santos Drug Wars — the Weeny Issi Rally, Toundra Panthere, Karin Hotring Everon, and Willard Eudora — have now been added for general sale.

 

~Other Vehicle Changes
Many lesser-used vehicles have been removed from dealership websites to streamline the shopping experience … these will occasionally be made available in other ways, including at The Diamond Casino & Resort’s Lucky Wheel.

Tap here for a full list of the vehicles removed from online sites

New Weapon:

~Tactical SMG
The new Tactical SMG is the pinnacle of sidearm technology: fully automatic, oversized magazine, drive-by capable, and devastatingly powerful. Pick one up from the Gun Van and feel the weight of the future in the palm of your hand.

And More...
This update also brings rebalances to the in-game economy, experiential upgrades based on extensive player feedback, expansive updates to the Creator, and the new Career tab in the Pause menu on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S used for charting your progress through GTA Online’s multitude of criminal pursuits. See the full title update notes to learn more.

Later this summer, keep an eye out for new vehicles and dynamic events unfolding in Freemode with the return of Armored Van robberies. Plus, take part in a large-scale battle on Cayo Perico in just a few short weeks.

They made a new map blip for bicycles as it was using the motorcycle blip for all these years, and no, the new "hold to sprint" button configuration does not apply to them, you still need to frequently tap the sprint button to sprint on bicycles. 

 

I don't understand why they don't just apply the motorcycle button layout to them, there's no need for us to use the front and rear brakes indepently, just move the pedal button to R2 and if we fully press it, our character goes into a full sprint, if we slightly press it, they pedal normally, it just can't be that hard to do.

 

Plus by doing this we could also get the ability of using melee weapons while on bike, Road Rash style.

 

Also no, no option to buy the Fixter, the one I got on my Arcade continues to taunt me.

You still cannot use the countermeasures while pilotting a Tula and also the Avenger.

 

This is the kind of thing you would expect them to change since they went through the problem of changing the VTOL controls, as nice QoL for those two aircrafts, but nope 🤦‍♂️

 

Also, the strat of manning the rear chain gun of the Tula while flying is patched now, because that required you to press and hold the left button on the D-pad while going up and stalling their engines, as both commands were assigning to the same button, but now that they're different buttons we can't do that anymore.

 

Oh well, at least you can use countermeasures on the Avenger if you have it on Auto Pilot, which is also stupid but it's something.

Now that the jet cannons are nerfed, rockstar should nerf some other stuff next. For example removal of automatic targeting of the orb aswell nerfing the explosive sniper and railgun.

the lazer´s canon feels nerfed, as it doesnt look like a  cluster bomb run anymore when using it, and you need to be more precise

Lazer and Hydra get a massive nerf to their RoF and are now the same as the new F160. Incidentally, the B-11 actually seems to have a faster RoF then the aforementioned jets now for its gun

So out of curiosity I decided to see how many of the in game vehicles could be directly stored after stealing them on the street - 104! 

 

a quick reference if anyone needed them https://gtacars.net/?filter_acquisition=_steal&page=1

Prior to the update, upon entering you would get a notification to throw out a drunk or take home a vip every single time you entered. So you could do this back to back to keep your popularity at max. It seems this is now patched.

  • Hidden Caches cash reward increased from $7,500 to $10,000
  • Drug Vehicle cash reward increased from $10,000 to $50,000

  • RC Time Trials cash reward decreased from $100,000 to $75,000 Apparently RC time trials are 1.5x this week? Which means it's actually reduced from $100,000 to $50,000 then.

OH BOY the sh*t this update brings never ends, does it?🙃

FuturePastNow

I did a nearby gang attack to test out the new weapon and it spawned five (5) enemies with miniguns. I don't know if that was a change, but it was a new one for me. Usually there are only one or two.

Edited by FuturePastNow

It seems like they changed the map blips for player owned properties.

 

Before this update, almost all of the property blip had high priority of showing in the map, as a result if you owned too many properties like I did, they would clutter the edges of your minimap, and also would hide player blips of other players coming your way.

 

With this update, now they only appear on your minimap if you're close to them, with only the Yatch being an exception to this, I believe it's because its a mobile base, like the Avenger/MOC/Terrorbyte/Kosatka/Acid lab are so its always showing on the map.

 

And no, there's still no option to hide them all permantly...Well, it's a improvement at least.

Not new, I had 5 of them with mininguns before.

 

It's f*cking stupid how we still don't have options to hide and disable these gang attacks for good, NOBODY would miss them.

Esrlier today this legit threw me off for a bit, I thought I was on some kind of mission because they all were hidden.

 

The map just looks so much better now, its unreal.

You want me to tell what changed? The  headlights on cars you request from characters. They fixed them!

Now you can call Agent14 or Franklin or Tony and their cars will have working lights!

 

I know some of you don't bother with these, but they did bother fixing this...

Some of the minor things I noticed: 

  • New weapon pickups in Hangar (Sticky Bombs, Revolver, SMG, could be smth else), also the respawn rate for existing Hangar pickups has been increased so you can't really restock your Homing Launcher ammo in like 1 minute anymore
  • Street Dealers now pay in cash instead of sending drug money directly to your bank account (more realistic now)
  • Bugged big-ass/duplicated Agency icon appearing during certain Security Contracts final stage seems to be fixed

I read somewhere you couldn't walk when you change Sprint to Hold. You can still walk, its now based on how much you press the left stick forward. And this is the way is should be for all games. 

 

FFXVI is also like this, pressing the stick all the way is run, a lil is walk.

I don't like how hard they made it to walk tho, you press 1 millimeter too much and your character starts moving like crazy LOL

 

Tried it for a bit, then back to my beloved tap to sprint

Yup, been tappin X since 2001

 

Back then if u tapped X then they wouldnt get tired, before completing the paramedic missions, lol.

And in SA, with a fully trained CJ, u could pedal a bike faster than most cars, if u tapped X fast enough.

So im with u, ill just tap X, i don't even notice im doing it anymore, lol
