Rockstar Games just deployed patch 1.61 (of which you can find the changelog accurate in English at this address), and if you want a reminder of what it brings, a post from the official site takes stock. It also reveals the Lampadati Corsita offered to subscribers GTA+ and bonuses of the week.
With the heat wave sweeping through southern San Andreas, gas prices skyrocketing and the economy threatening to collapse, you’d think the future looks bleak…
But this is Los Santos, where any problem can turn into an opportunity. Black market business is booming and you can profit from it with Criminal Enterprises, the new GTA Online update arriving today on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC.
Entrepreneurs from all walks of life have understood the need to renew themselves and target new markets:
New supply missions for white collar goods can be started from their office, as well as a new daily mission to export miscellaneous goods. In addition, additional staff will lend you a hand in your warehouse, like your new manager, Lupe, who will find and take advantage of all possible and imaginable opportunities.
For motorcycle club presidents, now is the time to raise revenue. Stock up your bar with Sindy’s help and open your doors to leather-clad patrons. Custom shop owners can now share their love of two wheels by modifying and delivering bikes to paying customers. Do you prefer dirty money? No worries, new HQ contracts will allow you to continue your misdeeds.
Nightclub bosses can contact Tony Prince, or log on to their office computer, to start new nightclub management missions. Nothing ever goes as planned at the hippest club in town: invading paparazzi, troublemakers, indisposed VIPs… Looking to stock up on merchandise? Call Yohan, he’ll find something.
To all the experts in arms trafficking: are you running out of raw materials? New resupply missions are available to fuel your underground fortress. Do you want to speed up the search for your bunker? Call agent 14. Want to access new markets? He can land you a contract with Ammu-Nation so you can sell them your surplus weapon parts.
To learn more about the ins and outs of these new business opportunities, head over to the official GTA Online website.
AGENT ULP RETURNS IN OPERATION “PAPER TRAIL”
Motorists are not the only ones to notice a sharp rise in fuel prices: the IAA’s ULP agent is on the spot. He’s smelled a criminal conspiracy and a big cloud of gasoline fumes, and suspects the Duggans and the FIB of rigging prices. The consequences could be catastrophic. He has little information yet, but he will contact you soon.
EXPERIENCE IMPROVEMENTS
Criminal Enterprises offers many improvements to the GTA Online experience; many of them come from the many constructive feedbacks you have sent us from our site.
To the delight of solo sailors, your business computers are now accessible in session by invitation. You can now launch sell and supply missions at your leisure, without having to endure the hell of a competitive market. And for those the hell don’t put off, expect better bonuses.
Players can now buy the maximum ammo for all of their weapons at once from the Interaction menu. No more wasting time going through ammo gun by gun. Select all ammo, refuel and resume the fight. And whether you want to replace your protection in the middle of a firefight or replenish your health by devouring your fifteenth EgoChaser, you can now do it much faster via the weapon wheel.
New gameplay improvements requested by players also include:
- A major overhaul of the in-game economy and rewards from various activities allowing players to be more free in how they approach their criminal ascent;
- A recalibration of the Oppressor Mk II’s armament and countermeasures;
- The maximum number of standard properties will be increased from 8 to 10, providing more slots for players’ vehicle collection.
Plus many more surprises… Be sure to check out our recent Newswire article on experience improvements, as well as update details available on the Rockstar Support site.
NEW VEHICLES AND MORE
Criminal Enterprises also adds new supercars, sports cars, and muscle cars. So if you’re looking for a vehicle that can turn heads faster than the price of cryptocurrencies, or if you’re preparing for an armored vehicle battle, head to your usual dealerships today. If you’re playing on the latest generation of consoles, you’ll also find a Stirling GT pampered by the tuning experts at Hao’s Special Works and two new vehicles compatible with Imani Tech upgrades available through the agency’s Vehicle Workshop.
And the people of Los Santos know there’s only one way to age: like fine wine. A good wine that could have been immersed in formaldehyde and preserved in resin. That’s why iconic racing cars have received a minor facelift. Find the Pegassi Zentorno, Benefactor Stirling GT, Grotti Turismo R and many more with new designs and modifications.
Additionally, Ammu-Nation now offers the new Sniper Rifle, a long-range firearm with improved accuracy.
