Short version: DLC BAD

While i do like some of the changes they did like nerfing jets, adding to the Avenger and the Career rewards, Rockstar completely dropped the ball on this one. They took one step forward then fell down a staircase backwards

This is the first dlc I've seen in any game where there's more content taken away compared to what we get. Limited time events are perfectly fine, but removing this much content in exchange of mediocre missions and payouts is purely unacceptable.

You know for a military themed DLC, you would think they would add more weapons or at least expand the weapon customization from the doomsday DLC but we only one weapon.

You forgot to mention that the Raiju for some reason is immune to normal bullets. You can only damage it with explosions.

Idk what you guys are talking about. I for one am glad that Rockstar took the time to give us a proper April Fools update, granted it was 2 months late but an update is an update. Much better than just giving us snow for a day which ruins the driving experience. Overall i give this April Fools update a 10/10 they really got us with this one.

I totally agree. The New plane, the stinger TT, the monsterCiti and the Walton despite being random seem to me the only good thing about this DLC. The rest is a Recycling or too random that nobody asked for. and the worst thing is that almost 200 cars have been taken from us and that they cannot be bought

They removed “lesser used” vehicles but they leave vehicles like dump/fire trucks and busses 🤦🏾‍♂️🤣😭 Edit I’m so confused as to why ppl can still lock on to you if you’re in stealth mode but when doing the mission flying through the canyon the SAMS could not. You have to purchase the weaponize conada as to upgrading the one you already have.

This dlc is the embodiment of "I expect nothing and I'm still let down."

The crazy thing is the 3 Freeroam missions pay more than twice as much as the actual Heist missions. Oh and one of those Freeroam missions is of course lore-breaking because they have Merryweather operating out of Madrazo's Ranch. I sometimes wonder if anyone at Rockstar is fmiliar with their own game's story, using Madrazo to shill races was bad enough.

Another bug that wasn't mentioned but it's affecting other players (including me) is regarding the vehicle rewards by completing final missions like getting Agatha's Paragon R, Dave's Weevil and recently Friedlander's Virtue. Yesterday i finished the Last Dose missions and got the call from Dax to pick up the Virtue but didn't spawn in the map (even though going to its spawn location it was still not there). Restarted the game and still didn't spawn. I'm not even mad at this point, many people wrote to R* support regarding this bug where some got the money to buy the Virtue but many got those stupid automated answers where some ahole tried to get on our nerves stating that it was a limited time event in march that's now expired and that the car can't be redeemed, like bro... At this point i don't even care anymore nor i will waste my time writing to R* support about the Virtue bug, me just seeing from multiple sources, youtubers, etc, stating the problems, laziness and greed that this "DownGradeableContent" (DLC) is, just makes me even more to stop playing this game completely (the reason why i finished the Last Dose missions only now).

One more thing you didn't mention about the MonstroCiti: There is no option to customize the license plate.

Almost everything else pays for itself, but NOT the Avenger. The nightclub pays for itself, the biker businesses pay for themselves, the CEO office and businesses pay for themselves, the Kosatka pays for itself, even the hangar pays for itself. The Mercenaries DLC represents an investment that you'll never so much as break even with. It's ridiculous. Even the Arcade pays for itself.

Agreed. Cars in the past few DLCs have always been the saving grace for the most part. This DLC has nothing interesting Also need more DCA rants lol

I hope the insurance bug is fixed soon because if your a car guy in GTA and have several garages full of cars you might have to give check every single garage and car so it doesn't get destroyed permanently

I feel like a DLC should at least pay for itself in the end. Like the missions should cover the cost of the upgrade required to start them, or at least with 2 run throughs like heists.

The poor payouts on the new missions are strange considering how much it costs to access them.

With the 200 cars issue, instead of having them as podium vehicles or Rockstar + only, why didn't they make a classifieds page where 15 of the old cars appear randomly each week? They were old cars anyway and it didn't really make sense that they were all available all the time. Would have been fun to check the classifieds pages for a car you've wanted for a while each week and more realistic.

I am personally very happy with the Ratel and the Clique Wagon. The Ratel is a lot of fun to drive, and the customization is great (the Trophy Truck and Desert Raid were always cars I wished had more options). That said, I see the arguments against them, and I agree that this update brought more bad than good. And Rockstar somehow managed to make the PC ingame chat even worse, with most people being unable to read each other once the session surpasses three players (sometimes with just two)

The other negative with the 9 cars thing is that from what ive seen of dripfeed stuff were not getting anything new again until christmas so theyll be dripfeeding those cars to us until the winter update so its probably gonna be one car a month

gonna keep my eyes open for the comet at my auto shop. that is a sentence I never thought I'd ever say.

You also forgot that we can get those removed cars in Auto Shop. Plus the missions are just lazy reskins from previous updates (invading NOOSE Server building was in Doomsday) and sneaking is pointless when enemies come for you after killing all of them. Rockstar started to hate Friends Reunited method.

I love how the community has been asking for an LFA for so long, so rockstar chooses to remove the ETR1 which was the most similar thing. It’s clearer and clearer each patch and update that rockstar cares less an less about the community.

I’ll say this again I feel bad for the devs, being overworked and forced to make changes like this to the game by the higher ups/suits

Your videos have always been my go to for GTA content. You are half the reason I play this game ❤

At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if they increase the prices of the removed cars when they rotate them back in the game and label it as “making the in-game economy more consistent”

Absolutely spot on and well said! All the cars add to the game and collected through dlc over the years, just thanos snapped into oblivion in an instant. 😮‍💨 Multiple dumb decisions, removing of content, and countless bugs and glitches. The new jet, avenger stuff, 2 or 3 of the several cars, and quality of life stuff are really the only highlights of the update, and the QOL stuff should have been added a long time ago! Overall, I absolutely agree. Just pretty bad and disappointing, my dude. 😅😔

Best thing to come out of this update is the fact that you can now call your avenger, moc and the others more often and not have to put them away. The new jet is alright but it has the same issue as the B-11 where if you shoot it with even one explosive the back steering flaps fall off and your jet becomes unusable.

I enjoy more missions to do, but i really wish Rockstar would make them worth doing. You should be able to break even or at least come close to breaking even on the terminal by completing the missions the first time. Im not grinding the missions out to make up for the loss on putting a 1.5 million dollar dust collector in my Avenger. Logged in, saw the price on that, looked at my 2 million in funds, and bought the S10. No regrets.

First and love your videos bro I love getting new info from you before I play

In some way I understand that they are using the majority of their resources in GTA 6, but also, the last 2 dlcs were a slap on the face with what they are doing.

The aircraft and hangar features are the best think about this updates. However, we still can't store more than 20 aircraft in our hangar. That's one of the biggest disappointments for me. How many cars and bikes can we own, like 250? Planes and helicopters need more storage.

The hangar changes amd the orb nerf were also a W, but not enough of one to make it a good update

I think at most my favorite part of the dlc is the career menu & the ability to *eventually* get story character outfits

With the ‘hold to sprint’ option, my character couldn’t walk at a normal pace anymore… only run or sprint… could be only me, but I changed it back to ‘tap to sprint’ (or whatever it was called) 😅

Theory: All these "unwanted" dlc cars are all cars already made for GTA 6, so they're basically giving us "new" models which are technically pre-existing models for GTA 6 without having to create new models for GTA 5 Online🤔

as broughy said: the game would have been better whitout this dlc

Avenger windows are no longer bulletproof. I don't know if it's because of the modifications in the hangar, but now I just noticed it.

I actually did want a standard looking truck in GTA because it's based off of the same one from San Andreas most of the vehicles in this game that were added to this DLC we're basically in GTA San Andreas or GTA 3

I think this is one of the rare DLC where it would have been better if we didn't get anything at all, mostly due to the cars removal.

I can't wait to get myself an electric bike when it drops I couldn't believe it when I saw your video on the dripfeed vehicles

Agree with everything you said, plus still annoyed that PC doesn't have next gen features and the Cayo Perico-killing glitches remain in tact from the Drug Wars update. The hold to sprint sucks too. Let me help you on this R*: Tap, Tap + Hold. It's that easy.

Great video as usual, you call it spot on and i really like that. As far as cars to add, they should've added a fox body Mustang.

Yay! A rant video!

@DigitalCarAddict its 1.5mil - operations terminal, 7mil - avenger, 2-4 mil for the hanger to apply the operations terminal so you really need 12-12.5mil to get access to the missions if you dont have the hanger either

Also, theres a bug current after you complete the lost dose misson, rather to get the car ocelot virtue, you receive the notification by dax , but there is no icon on the map or the car itself on the map.

Usually I find the “who asked for this car!” people annoying, because there’s at least a few highly requested cars mixed in with the more niche stuff (which I personally like, I enjoy getting surprised) but this update I kinda get it. Aside from the Charger and maybe Roma, none of these cars were being requested by the community at all, and just feel like filler vehicles from GTA 6. There’s also the issue of day 1 being kind of 2 hours and done, when it used to be a big event where there’s loads to do.

R* better give us a DLC like The Contract but with Michael in December

One bug for me is for the bar resupply missions. The van just completely breaks and tilts to one side, making it impossible to drive to back to the clubhouse. Like how am I supposed to drive a van glitched into the ground that drifts every 5 seconds

Ngl the missions were pretty fun and kind of unique-ish (except mission three). However, too many bugs and no addition of tactical/military clothing makes this DLC bad imo

I remember back when day one content saw more cars than nowadays in total with dripfeed

this might be the most tone deaf dlc I've seen in quite some time which is remarkable considering the company we're dealing with. The fact that said company also will be responsible for the release of the single most anticipated game doesn't make me very hopeful

I was excited about the Walton and Clique wagon, and the Eudora becoming available again since I missed it the first time. That's...really about it for me with this DLC. Custom mod options are pretty useless if they're all terrible. I end up leaving my cars visually stock or try to make them as close to their real-life counterparts as possible. I would have preferred a non-lifted Walton myself. I ended up lowering it to a more stock ride height.

I honestly wouldn't have minded anything if they didnt remove 189 cars i believe

At first the dlc's were absolutely amazing like the doomsday heist, casino heist, Cayo perico and others but now not so much like the criminal enterprise where you can be a IAA agent that one was pretty good/decent but mercenaries dlc it was ok plus I was kinda hoping we would get those ceo vest in the dlc like those heavy tactical looking vest you can wear like the one you wear if you click on ceo style and go to El jefe and the other outfits I do hope next time rockstargames will do a dlc that's just as good and awesome as the doomsday, casino, and Cayo perico dlc

Did they fix the insurance bug yet? It’s risky for me to play atm

I think they had the Raiju and maybe one or two of the new cars as well as the avenger missions for a new dlc and the rest of the vehicles and the gun were just random stuff they have been kicking around for years. This has to be one of the last dlcs and they are just clearing out whatever they have laying around, putting in as little effort as possible, and one last blatant cash grab before the gta6 release cycle kicks in and current online updates end.

I’ve wanted a HSW Zirconium Stratum for ages now with visual mods

Snow is now a weather option for races.

Is it worth it to get the avenger and operation terminal THEN the raiju, or just bite the bullet and get the raiju no trade price

There’s storage in the hanger so if you run out of floor space it just goes there. No need to sell anything to make space on the floor

I sold my Stinger TT because of its proportions compared to other vehicles.

For some reason, it takes forever for me to enter ls car meet with a couple of the new dlc vehicles I own. Maybe it's a bug, I don't know

Using the Dinka Kanjo SJ and the Karin Sultan, could you build Vince's Nissan Maxima and Mia Toretto's Integra from the first Fast and Furious movie? P.S, would it possible to build Johnny Trans black Honda S2000 with the Dinka RT3000?

Those are electric bicycles. So they going to be super fun on the Park ramp.

We'll never see the same R* again. From a company that makes ambitious games with passion, to a company that follows the dark side of other greedy companies to milk and break a single game title as much as possible. On other notes, this DLC has officially given the final nail to the coffin to all car collectors, race creators & to all racers. R*'s finally giving GTA Online the Red Dead Online treatment, no doubt.

Honest and in depth, good vid. For the PC people who haven't switched to quality FiveM servers with their own cloud + progression, missions etc. I'm just wondering what crack you're smoking? Console players though I just feel bad for..

I've got bug where my audio is crackly and echo on gta only

As much as I actually like the Walton (s10). With them really pushing these electric vehicles. It was a perfect opportunity for us to get the Rivian. Could have been the first electric truck in the off road class.

At least for me, I LOVE the Ford Woody Wagon, and I wanted it in GTA Online, so I LOVE it being in GTA Online.

When was the last time we got an update that wasn’t lacklustre and broken as hell, 2013 or something. But we finally got the Monstrosity after 22 years of waiting so that’s a big plus.

6:17 On the random S10 addition as opposed to something more popular, I'm not complaining because I have a square body S10, although a 2WD model.

Lobby race glitch happened Saturday night. That's how it was found out. Thanks Mike

Not to mention all the updates to the hangar feel half baked, and they should have just given the option to have two hangars to increase space. The staff source for the hangar coulda been useful too if they woulda just let you choose what type of cargo they get, but no, it's random. The whole "DLC" is one big joke...

This may have already been noticed but those bicycles look like electric bikes similar to the Stealth B-52 Bicycle.

What were they honestly thinking with this update? I want to play but I'm waiting til they fix all these issues

The Desert Raid is the Karin truck you can steal from pelito it's just modified to look like a sand rail. The renault based car is just another freaking Issi mod.

What is drip feed or drift feed ?

Now looking at the thumbs of the new Buffalo and Hellfire... They're basically the same car, but with different details and wheelbase. Well done, Rockstar

Haven’t had more fun with the sniper with explosive bullets until this DLC lol

For this dlc, just make use of the new hangar improvements that is the new land source and sell missions. Don't need to unnecessarily buy the Operations terminal for early grinding, get it after you get settled in the game.

After finishing the last mission for English Dave, I got the call but there was no spawn on the mapfor the car

i dont even know if any of my vehicles have been permanently destroyed, itd also be nearly impossible for me to check the insurance on every vehicle

Aside from everything mentioned about the DLC, the one thing that makes no sense is not having any objectives for the old gen on the stats page. There isn't even a page for this DLC and we don't have access to certain outfits/clothes.

The hotring hellfire car could be a Benny's vehicle but then rockstar wouldn't give us something to fill the garage with

My m o c cab was deleted had to put a ticket in to Rockstar I only found out a few days ago so I don't know if it was the new DLC.

Is it just me or does it still feel faster to tap the sprint button rather than holding it down?

The removal of cars upset me, not enough missions (personally), new jet is cool, wish they released better cars i.e Ram TRX, G-Wagon (new body), a r35/r34 and a 765lt/720s type car, happy they changed the cannons so I cant get strafed by try hard but annoyed I cant use it to clear out area of enemy's and cars in free roam missions and finally I'm worried about loseing my insured cars due to the 1 to many bugs. Keep up the amazing content DCA

the career progress for cayo perico treasure chests is bugged. you need to collect 10, but it resets everyday.

I appreciate R* added new content and that Dispatch jobs can now be done solo, so was able to do them for the first time, so that was kinda like new content. I knew when R* said they were going to remove cars it was going to be a bloodbath, but I’ll admit it was worse than I thought. I thought they’d replace the old street cars with newer ones to make freemode feel more modern. But beyond removing 186+ cars or not adding more hangar space, is what they did with the sprint option which should be a crown jewel of QoL is that now it takes 3 minutes of lunging and 20 controller movements to just interact with a street dealer. Like when you call a dingy, jump off, and try to swim back to it, R* makes the dingy drift as fast as you can swim. I once tried to time how long it took to catch up to it and I couldn’t capture it in a 3 minute clip. These small, petty ubiquitous time wasting actions by R* are what truly define what POS’s they are.

Idk if this happened to anybody else but my chat completely breaks sometimes now too. I even had a game where I was in an invite only session w/ friends and we could hear a whole other lobby lol

i do like the blackhawk mission with the boat hangar. if you put black ops 1 soundtrack in tbe back ground and play in first person with the service rifle then your set

How’s everyone doing . Can anyone help me get the comet sport car im on Xbox series X? It was deleted.

That truck reminds me back in future Marty drive

I just realized another thing on the website Southern San Andreas they removed Frankenstange, which is a limited time vehicle.🤦‍♂️ Edit: and the sovereign Edit2: the walton is literally identical to the Yosemite rancher Edit 3: If you have the hold down to Sprint option enabled then when you ads and you hold to move faster than it brings you out of aim.

Can i sell the hydra? How?

Forgot missing custom plates on for played both gen every time

The MonstroCiti is a nice car and a funny throwback to GTA III but its plates cannot be changed at all. The option just simply isn't there on PC

I think that the random cars are cars that were designed time ago and in this dlc were added to the game. And the worst thing about this dlc are the bugs, it's not so funny now to play GTA online. Ps. Great video my guy.

Instead of the Walton and the Ratel they could have added a Ford GT40 and a BMW E38 or Merc W124. And instead of the electric R5 a classic R5 or a Clio V6 would have been my choice
