'Grand Theft Auto Online' (ALL) Last Man Standing Update Rolled Out

by Rainier on Oct. 2, 2014 @ 10:28 a.m. PDT

Set in the sprawling city of Los Santos and the surrounding area, Grand Theft Auto V delivers a world of unprecedented scale and detail bursting with life, from mountaintops to the depths of the ocean.

A bold new direction in open-world freedom, storytelling, mission-based gameplay and online multiplayer, Grand Theft Auto V focuses on the pursuit of the almighty dollar in a re-imagined, present day Southern California.

Los Santos: a sprawling sun-soaked metropolis full of self-help gurus, starlets and fading celebrities, once the envy of the Western world, now struggling to stay afloat in an era of economic uncertainty and cheap reality TV. Amidst the turmoil, three very different criminals plot their own chances of survival and success:  Franklin, a former street gangster, now looking for real opportunities and serious money; Michael, a professional ex-con whose retirement is a lot less rosy than he hoped it would be; and Trevor, a violent maniac driven by the chance of a cheap high and the next big score. Running out of options, the crew risks everything in a series of daring and dangerous heists that could set them up for life.

The biggest, most dynamic and most diverse open world Rockstar Games has yet created, Grand Theft Auto V blends storytelling and gameplay in new ways as players repeatedly jump in and out of the lives of the game’s three lead characters, playing all sides of the game’s interwoven story.

All the classic hallmarks of the series return, including attention to detail and Grand Theft Auto’s darkly humorous take on modern culture, alongside a brand new and ambitious approach to open world multiplayer.

The Last Team Standing Update introduces powerful weaponry, tactical gear, high-performance vehicles and all-new Creator features, as well as 10 new Last Team Standing Jobs spread out across Los Santos and Blaine County. We have also made additional gameplay changes to allow for a greater range of game types and enhanced matchmaking.

Using the Last Team Standing Creator, players can now design original GTA Online Jobs in this strategic and deadly mode that pits teams against one another with no second chances. This Creator update also features the ability to add Rounds to Captures and Last Team Standing Jobs, or raise the stakes by adding rounds to Rockstar Created LTS, Captures and Versus Missions. We have also added the new Forced Weapon setting, allowing you to limit weapons for specific options like “Snipers-Only”.

Additional new items

  • Weapons
    • Heavy Shotgun
    • Marksman Rifle
  • Vehicles
    • Shitzu Hakuchou sport bike
    • LCC Innovation chopper
    • Lampadati Furore GT sports car
    • As well as new outfits, Masks, Tops, Pants, Bulletproof Helmets and more.

Additional gameplay changes

As part of today’s automatic update, we’ve now globally synchronized the Job voting screens, allowing us to merge sessions where players have voted on the same Job. This, combined with the on-call matchmaking introduced in a previous update allows players to find the Jobs they like more easily, and to stay with as many like-minded players as possible.

Other gameplay changes include:

  • Players are now able to go On-call for activities (Arm-Wrestling, Darts, Golf etc.).
  • Players are now able to Quick Match with friends or alone to activities (Arm-Wrestling, Darts, Golf etc.) using the option in the phone.
  • Betting limits have been increased from GTA$2,500 to GTA$10,000.

You can find the full list of additions, tweaks and fixes at the Rockstar Support site.
