Rockstar Games removed many game modes yesterday, including head-to-head, racing, head-to-head and missions. Multiplayer players were unhappy with their decision. The developers have promised that the remote modes will return in the form of rotation.
Some time ago, Rockstar warned the community that they would remove some of the content in order to make room for future modes and solve the main problem – the filling of the lobby in adversarial and other tasks. The first to come under the knife were the “Maniac” and “Maniacs” modes, and after a few weeks, the developers thoroughly cleaned up the list of available activities.

- parachuting;
- sea races;

The main reason is the low popularity of some modes. Over the course of eight years, they have developed and implemented new confrontations, but the community has not always appreciated their work. Over the years, they have added a little over 55 different adversarial matches, but not all of them have become popular among players. For example, the confrontation “Rhino Hunt” is a fantastically terrible mode, where no matter how hard you try, you will still die from the player on the tank. It is unlikely that constantly dying players will enter this mode, knowing that they will be sent to spawn more often than they will destroy the damned tank.
Rockstar’s next problem was that players were spread over multiple missions, reducing the size of the lobby. By removing the regimes, they probably wanted to rally the community by “driving” them into the lobby. You are no longer free in GTA Online.
The developers promise to use the rotation of modes, however, they do not specify how often this will be done. Maybe once a week they will update the list of modes? Today it looks like this:
Available confrontations:
- Deadline
- Hasta La Vista (Asta la Vista);
- Hunting Pack (Remix)
- Sumo (Remix) (Sumo (remix));
- a series of confrontations: Bunker, Base, Casino.
Obviously, the players are outraged by the shutdown of the modes. This is partly due to the fact that it is now impossible to get some in-game rewards. For example, “Number one”, where you need to win in all the main activities, and sea races are no longer available. In general, the classic logic of Rockstar Games.
Changes in GTA Online:
- fixed loading of mugshots (photos under arrest) in interiors,
- fixed a glitch on the creation of clones of cars, exploiting the test track in the Autoclub LS,
- fixed a glitch for creating clones of cars in solo using the PKP and the auto repair shop,
- new vehicles have been added to the lists of premium challenges and prize vehicles.
