GTA Online High Life update and co-op heists out this spring

[THUMBS]

Capture Creator out next week, High Life Update to follow
Rockstar will add co-op Heists to GTA Online this spring, along with a new Capture mission editor and the High Life Update, which introduces new guns, weapons and vehicles. Quick, everybody assign heist film roles. I'll be George Clooney. Aoife can be Michael Caine. Jonty can be an East European hacker of some description, and Log can drive the getaway car. Sorted.

Here's a more detailed breakdown, courtesy of the Rockstar NewsWire.

Capture Creator: Coming next week, the Creator community will be able to make their own original customized Capture Jobs and add to the over 3.5 million (and counting) player-created Deathmatches and Races currently available on Social Club. Strategically place pick-ups, define weaponry, set location, and tweak tons of other variables to make your own unique Capture Job for others to take on. We will also be reviewing your homemade Capture creations to stamp standout experiences as Rockstar Verified.

The High Life Update: The High Life Update will allow you to expand your foothold in Los Santos with new high-end apartment options, the powerful Bullpup Rifle, new wardrobe items, the Dinka Thrust motorcycle and three new lavish cars to choose from, including the Super class Pegassi Zentorno. The High Life Update will also feature the debut of multi-property ownership in GTA Online, which means you'll be able to own two distinct properties (with garages) simultaneously. All this plus the new Mental State player statistic, which is designed to let you see just how passive or psychotically unhinged fellow players in your session really are, and a slew of new Jobs.

Heists: Coming this spring to Grand Theft Auto Online, team up with your most trusted Crew members or with random other mercenaries in Grand Theft Auto Online to pull off cooperative Heist Missions for glory and profit. We know many in the GTA Online community have been looking forward to this update - stay tuned for much more information to come.


The NewsWire post also speaks of new GTA 5 and GTA Online content later this year, "including more holiday-themed updates, some very exciting Story Mode DLC and much more". All that aside, Rockstar will continue to refine the base game - it recently rolled back an update that adjusted the bike physics, for instance, in response to community feedback.

"In general, we are open to keeping unintended 'glitches' in the game if players enjoy them and they aren't causing any negative impact to gameplay or fairness in any way," the post notes. Here's a rundown of forthcoming fixes and tweaks.

- The addition of a 'Non-Contact' option for Races. This will allow you to play standard Races with collisions disabled between player vehicles. Other players will appear as semi-transparent and you'll still be able to collide with non-player traffic, structures and other scenery, but this mode - for those who want to play it - will eliminate the "rubbing is racing" mentality that some wish to avoid.
- Players will be able to call Lester and have him tell his cop buddies to turn a blind eye to any crime you may or may not be committing for a short period of time.
- As a reward for players who leave feedback on Jobs, there will be some bonus RP granted every time a player likes or dislikes content after playing it.
- GTA$ payouts will be increased when completing Parachute, Races, Deathmatches and LTS Jobs with less than 4 players.
- We'll be fixing the issue where players who had upgraded personal vehicles prior to Title Update 1.10 were only able to sell them for $10,000.

Last but not least, Rockstar will continue to quash any cash or Rank point exploits and hacks it comes across. "As part of our ongoing commitment to target cheaters and keep the game as fair as possible, we are closing RP exploits and will be adjusting the RP totals of players who we know for certain to have gained illegitimate RP by cheating," the post adds.

"Your RP will only be adjusted if you participated in mods, hacks, DNS redirects, manipulation of cloud files, or other similarly nefarious behaviour. If you grinded short legitimate missions or otherwise gained a small amount of RP without modding, your RP should not be affected by this correction."
