New air and land vehicles coming, plus a cash boost for some jobs smile

doh, for some reason I assumed it'd be a western jet because 'murica, shoulda known those rectangle intakes were more Russian style.

I'll be on shortly after 6pm tonight, probably all evening to try out the new stuff. I'll start an open crew lobby when I log on. Had great difficulty joining you and Norfock last night - for about 30 minutes it kept telling me the sessions were full.

Hello, If you request to join the crew through the rockstar social club, we can send back an invite which you just need to accept. Theres generally always a few people from the crew on.

Patch Notes: https://support.rockstargames.com/hc/en-us/article...

Some highlights...

> Cash rewards are no longer reduced by 50% on replay of a Contact Mission. Players will now receive the full reward for completing a Mission every time.

>Players now receive more Cash for playing Contact Missions in groups:
Two players - +10% Cash
Three players - +20% Cash
Four players - +30% Cash

>Cash and RP for Contact Missions have been rebalanced. This is to ensure that all Contact Missions pay out a fair reward in relation to the mission difficulty and amount of time taken. The potential cash payouts have increased significantly overall, although some specific missions have been reduced as a result of the rebalance.

>The San Andreas Flight School is now open for business in GTA Online. The Flight School can be accessed via a Job corona, from rank 6 onwards, at Los Santos International Airport indicated by a small plane icon on the map. Ten flying lessons have been added as part of the Flight School which will help to improve players’ flying skills.

>Players in Tanks will now show as such with a specific Tank icon on the Minimap.

>In addition, the following jobs have been reactivated:
Stocks and Scares
Chemical Extraction
Rich Men in Richman
Hack and Dash

>Lester’s abilities ‘Remove Wanted Level’, ‘Cop Turn Blind Eye’, and ‘Off Radar’ now apply to all passengers in a vehicle as well as the player who initially triggered it.

I predict much laughter, banter, skyscraper avoidance and a fireball.

Jobbo and I managed to get Huntleys up the North slope of Chiliad, you need to take a certain route but it takes you right to the chair lift.

Going to retry it tonight with the Baller. smile

ooo looking forward to this, I thought it was just one plane one car and one helicopiter.
I've already committed to skipping gym tonight (sadface) so I'll probably be on by 4:30 and binging. The bonus money is welcome news indeed, a case of about fcensoredking time. Even that one with the bloody boats might be worth doing again Jobbo?

If they've actually changed the payouts to reflect difficulty then it must be worth $100k or so now laugh

Fiddling with the payouts has inspired me to play through all the missions again, anyway. No new actions, though; shame! One of the most fun parts of previous updates has been doing the new actions at each other.
