So ... in just over an hour GTA changes, hopefully for the better.

Reducing the effectiveness of the Oppressor is going to put a lot of griefers out of business (I hope), and being able to do sell missions in a session lacking morons will help. Pity they didn't do anything about the modders though. I have high hopes for this DLC: I'll be trying it in an hour so don't expect "normal service" from me for a short while ... :laugh:

Is this a game ?

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming “Wow! What a Ride!" - Hunter S Thompson - RIP

Only because I'm not allowed to take a grenade launcher with me when I go shopping in RL. :-D

You should move to Texas... :rolleyes: :laugh:

M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

OriginalGriff

No thanks - I've been there! :-D

I suspect they might[1], but not necessarily include it as part of their release notes. [1] not that it's gonna take the modders[2] more than 20 minutes to undo it all [2] and I do mean those who reverse-engineer this stuff and write it, not the script kiddies on GTA who only know how to download some random EXE off some random web site (they hate it when I point that out, which invariably results in me getting kicked off their session...but...worth it)

How big's the update? I'm thinking I might power up my gaming rid this afternoon just to have it start fetching it so I'm not spending the whole evening waiting for that to happen...

According to the web the size differs, depending on the source (Steam/EPIC and so), but not less then 2.5 Gb...

Mine took less than 20 minutes, but that was via Epic and at "launch time" so it may be quicker now. Not sure exactly how long - I went off to do other things and it was done when I got back.

They have nerfed the Agency security contracts - about half the payout they used to have. £30K for specialist+ ? Probably gonna be dropped from my grinding schedule.

Are you kidding me? I'm already only doing with the agency missions that pay $50K at least. BTW - The installer said 2.83GB for me. Even though I throttled it so it doesn't interfere (much) with the VPN connection at work, it's done and just waiting for me to fire it up after work...

OriginalGriff

Same here - the payphone hits are much better paying, but slower to recharge. I just did one of the new "Weapons to Ammunation" missions and it says it paid me $150K, but I see no sign of it anywhere ... but the IIA missions seem ok, if a little easy from the three I've done today solo. Not good payers again: $40K per.
