Lint Posted March 4, 2015 Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 Adversary Modes, Daily Objectives and More New Updates Also Coming to GTA Online March 10thMarch 03, 2015 3:47PM | Author: R* Q671 Comments Next week, Heists will deliver a brand new gameplay experience to GTA Online, offering players the chance to team up to take down big scores. Alongside this massive new addition comes a range of new features and enhancements to make the entire GTA Online experience bigger and deeper. Adversary Modes bring three new kinds of competition to GTA Online while new Daily Objectives and other Freemode activities bring new life to the hectic streets of Los Santos and Blaine County. Here's a rundown of just some of the new features and additions launching next week alongside Heists that will continue to expand and augment the world of Grand Theft Auto Online. NEW ADVERSARY MODESThese brand new player vs. player modes bring a range of intense new competitive challenges to GTA Online. Adversary Modes will unlock as players progress through Heists. Come Out To PlayA team of three Runners just trying to make it home, and a team of Hunters are out for blood. Runners are well-armed but limited to movement by foot, while the opposition wield free-aim shotguns and ride motorbikes or ATVs. Hunters must stay on their bikes and have access to unlimited lives, while the Runners have just one life but all their weapons available to pick off the Hunters at will. Siege MentalityUp to four players stand their ground, outnumbered but not outgunned as they fight to survive against up to 6 determined attackers in a location defense mode, GTA style. Attackers have unlimited lives but fight only with sawn-off shotguns. Defenders have full use of all their weapons. Hasta La VistaThe chase is on as Truckers in big rig cabs hunt down a team of Cyclists. The Cyclists' goal is simple: reach the final checkpoint without getting crushed under the wheels of the pursuing trucks. Without traditional weapons the Truckers must rely solely on their vehicles to crush the Cyclists. Meanwhile, the Cyclists must harness the maneuverability and acceleration of their bikes to evade the trucks, while keeping an eye over their shoulder. If one of the Cyclists reaches the checkpoint, the Cyclists win. If all Cyclists are terminated, the Truckers prevail. Daily ObjectivesThe Los Santos daily hustle just got a little more lucrative. Whether you tend towards Jobs or free-form activities, Daily Objectives will give you a rotating series of challenges to take on for GTA$ rewards. With three new objectives per day, players can stack up challenges over consecutive days to earn bonuses of up to $500,000. New Freemode ActivitiesYou and your fellow players also have new opportunities for cash and RP rewards with new activities added to the world in Freemode. Be on the lookout for calls from Lester, who may need help to distract the cops in a specific area while Lester’s accomplices finish their criminal business. Lamar may call looking for help destroying a vehicle or two, while Trevor and Ron need occasional help picking their business rival’s planes out of the sky. Along with GTA$ and RP bonuses, there are all-new Awards available for completing these challenges with style.There's also a new in-game Email notification system that will allow you to contact and message any of your GTA Online friends, no matter what session they’re in - as well as a host of new Awards that yield new items including exclusive t-shirts and car modifications.Everything detailed here will be added to GTA Online for consoles in tandem with Heists on March 10th and on day one for PC when it launches on April 14. Stay tuned to the Newswire for more news, including our suggestions on how you can ready your crew to take down scores when Heists launch next week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MalaCloudy Black Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 Anyone still on PS3 wanna set up a time to try some heists? I still need to download the update, but after that I'm free whenever. We can do an invite-only session and I'll grab my headset and then we can start fooling with it. EDIT: The first heist has 2 setup missions and then the finale, and it's a 2-person job all the way through. $11,500 upfront costs for the heist leader.

thatshortguy Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 If $11,500 is common for setup costs then hell, I can be just as much a sugar daddy as Rich can. Doubly so when I sell off my extraneous cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubly so when I sell off my extraneous cars. That's only the first heist, which is just a little 2-man job with minimal setup. The second heist has an upfront cost of $40k, and I assume the heists after it cost even more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MalaCloudy Black Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 Which heists have you seen? So far all I've seen the first and second ones (no spoilers) and they seem pretty rad. Really, I'm more excited about FACE BANDANAS! MASKS! MORE MASKS! NEW CLOTHES! I'm going to heist so much stuff and look so chic doing it. Pink knit balaclavas all the way.

The second heist has an upfront cost of $40k, and I assume the heists after it cost even more. If I'm remember correctly I've still got a stupid amount of money from the stimulus package on 360 and the extra cash from the PS4 version, so I should be able to fund some. Find me tonight! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thatshortguy Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 My RL friends scoffed when I said GTA Online was the MMO to jump on. They scoff no more. Even if it's a $54k setup, I can easily fund those. Hell, I'm not worried until setup gets in the high six figures 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
