Chris Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Rockstar have released yet another surprise free DLC in the latest 1.16 update patch for GTA Online. This update includes a whole host of general improvements including: all Contact Mission GTA$ and RP awards have been rebalanced so that more difficult missions will earn you greater rewards, GTA$ payouts on replays are no longer reduced and all rewards are now time scaled. But the main new feature in this update is the addition of the San Andreas Flight School. Grab the stick of the fast and nimble Western Besra training jet and push it to the edge of the envelope. Master absolute air superiority in 10 new solo missions that will make you comfortable in any pilot’s danger zone, including combat maneuvering, low-flying challenges, formation flying and more. Once it’s ‘mission accomplished’ and you’re out of your heroic new Flight Suit, spend your shore leave buzzing the skies in the luxury Swift helo, or cram your entire squad into the new 16-seater Buckingham Mil-Jet for team transport in style. Hit the silk with a collection of new Chutes and Parachute Bags, and if things get a little out of control, rely on the Reserve Parachute to give you a second chance at that soft landing – or use it to get creative with your precision dives. Later, hit the streets in the shapely Invetero Coquette Classic, available in either hard-top or topless roadster variants for whatever your sea-level speed fix. And round up your wingmen for new Races, Captures, Parachute Jumps and more, including the three all-new VS Mission modes. Acquire Targets is a kill-the-carrier style mode where opponents fight in P996 Lazers to control one flag; maintain control for as long as you can to rack up points. In G-Rating, compete against other cadets as you fly to pick up 15 flags in both weapons hot and cold environments. Or try out Air Force Zero, where the defending team must protect an aircraft against an attacking team as it flies to the safe LZ. As always you can find the complete list of changes in this update over on the Rockstar Support site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSanityHD Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Apparently R* released this update "too early" or something. They've cut down the total earnings from these new DLC jobs from when they first released it. There's a lot of people raging about it or something. I started the flight school missions and got to the "Follow Leader" test to which I raged after having failed it 4 times, then passed it on the 5th attempt.

Name one thing gamers these days don't rage about. Edited August 22, 2014 by Spartan198 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
