This patch should hopefully address some of the issues you’ve been having in GTA Online in regards to losing vehicles and modifications. It also makes better-looking characters through the character creator, and tweaks it so that you’ll only lose $500 upon death in freemode.
The full list of changes is as follows
- Fixes numerous issues that were causing vehicle loss and/or loss of vehicle mods
- Fixes an issue where the incorrect car is replaced when choosing to replace a car in a full garage
- Fixes an exploit allowing players to sell the same vehicle multiple times
- Fixes an issue that caused personal vehicles to be duplicated
- Fixes an issue where some players were unable to pay utility bills on an owned apartment or house
- Fixes an issue where players were not getting Crew invites in-game
- Fixes an issue where the starting point for the tutorial race was not appearing
- Fixes issues with joining Jobs from within a player-owned garage
- Fixes issues with players getting stuck while using playlists
- Fixes additional issues causing black screens, long load times, and players getting stuck in the sky cam
- Adds details in the UI to clarify that characters created while Rockstar cloud is unavailable are temporary (non-saved)
- Adds changes to the character creator to make better-looking default characters with the “random” option
- Players now only lose a maximum of 500 GTA$ upon death in Freemode
Rockstar have also said they’ll be aiming to deposit the first half of the $500,000 stimulus package for players early next week, once any further issues have been fixed. It’ll appear straight in your bank accounts, presumably after another title update.

Yay. The change in death cost is VERY welcome. It sucked that gun happy morons could just appear and cost you $2k for no reason.
I’ve had quite a few of those other issues too so I am happy to see this.

yeah, the high death cost was a problem for me.
maybe later on when you get much higher paying jobs it’s not such an issue, but early on it makes saving for anything a real problem.
this will be an improvement.

I have never found more than £100 on a body after I killed them. Nor have I lost more? I assumed that dying only incurred a max of £100 penalty!?

They have also reduced the amount of money you get from every mission i haved played thus far. Not as much of a bonus.

These are all good fixes, BUT, why are they NOT telling us what they are changing with there server side patches . For example….. they have changed Survival Missions so much this week , that they are no longer fun. All they are doing is tweaking the game to try to force us to buy their stupid Cash Cards. & now less $ for Missions ? Im starting to hate this company

Welcome to the club… I think 90% of people playing this game are only playing it now until PS4 and all the new games. They say crime doesn’t pay…. Now with $2,000 a mission it really doesn’t lol. It will take you until sometime next year to buy an apartment and a sports car in the game.

I think his update corrupted my online character but im not sure of it can be fixed in the next update, when ever i g from single player to online it resets my money to 4217 and my level to 59. And I spawn in the same spot all the time. It’d really suck if I had to starts. New character because I just bought the adder legit. :( if you know how to fix this, please tell me :)

I actually never HAD several of these issues until the 1.04 update yesterday. Now I have been stuck in the sky cam, not been able to invite people to matches, not had my vehicle upgrades or weapon upgrades saved, lost money and progress, had issues saving my game while playing online… ALL new issues. Thanks for effing this up royally, Rockstar. I’ll tell you what: send me an e-mail and I’ll tell you how to create a high-availability, load balanced game server… and you won’t even need a billion dollars to do it (which you have, anyways, which is why this whole clusterfrak is so beat to begin with).

Same here… I lost an almost fully modified Akuma, was stuck in limbo for ten minutes, could not find anyone to join my games out of the millions that were playing and lost all the money and levels I had gained since yesterday…. I was just starting to like R* again but now they can sit and spin. I won’t be buying any of their products on the next gen systems….

You forgot to mention that the payout for jobs has been slashed in half as well. I received the update this morning. The first job I did was ‘based invaders’ which usually pays out $25,000…. I completed it flawlessly by myself and only received $12,500. Another job that usually paid $25,000 paid me $10,000 and some of the jobs that used to pay $9,000 and $10,000 are now only paying between $2,000 and $5,000. I completed a ‘rampage’ with some friends and got $10,000 instead of $20,000…. I know everyone is getting a $500,000 boost in their accounts next week however they should not punish everyone for their mistakes or other players taking advantage of their screw ups. This whole game has been a cluster of fucks from the beginning…..

anybody else noticed there seems to be less variety in the vehicles since the patch?
it seems like most of the cars now are either Buffalos, Karins or, bloody Fathoms.
the Fathoms especially seem to be everywhere.
i may be exaggerating slightly, but it seems like half the cars are now Fathoms.
i don’t think i’ve seen a muscle car since the patch.
or is it just me?
maybe it is just my imagination, but, i’ve been from one end of the map to the other, and everywhere, it seemed like half the cars were Fathoms and Buffalos.
