GTA Online Is Getting A Big New Heist You Can Play Solo If You Want (kotaku.com) 4
Rockstar Games announced that Grand Theft Auto Online's biggest update ever will be released on December 15, adding a brand new island, new radio stations, a new armed submarine, and a huge heist that can be completed with friends or solo. From a report: Yesterday, Rockstar teased this new update, The Cayo Perico Heist, with a short video showing off the new location. While GTA Online has had small map expansions, with some new interiors being added to the game world, this is the first major map expansion since the game first released back in 2013. For the first time in GTA Online, players will be able to complete a large heist solo. Previously, all heists required more than one player, which often meant folks would have to rely on random players or corralling friends together.
This is great! (Score:4, Funny)
I'm starting to think this might be the future of GTA Online. A series of individual missions, maybe tied together by a story. After all, the worst part of the GTA franchise is playing with other people. Eventually we may even get to the point where the updates can be delivered via DVD instead of internet, which will help people with slow connections. The future looks great.
Make it part of the main game (Score:2)
I'll check it out if they make it part of the main game and I don't have to go online to check it out. I want it to be part of my single player progress. I don't have anything online and nothing carries over.
Flop story indicates GTA is over? (Score:2)
I often wonder why some stories attract so little interest (as measured by comments). As I write, this one is at the bottom of the front page (and therefore about to expire) but has only three comments.
Is it a TL;DR thing? Maybe with download substituted for reading time?
