What are the improvements?

Nerfing the Oppressor Mk II has been one of the most requested adjustments by the community. Coupled with that, Rockstar will reduce the efficacy of homing missiles and countermeasures on this infamous hoverbike with the next DLC. They will also be supplying a more practical method of getting snacks and armor, as well as the capacity to start Sell Missions in Invite Only sessions.

Rockstar will apparently be incorporating more player feedback in the future as well. No matter their choice of mode, players will also be able to expect more cash rewards in various aspects of the game. Rockstar believes that raising these rewards will provide individuals more flexibility to pursue what they want and achieve their goals more quickly.

Payouts will be raised for Bodyguards, Associates, and MC Members to promote and reward cooperative play. Additionally, there will be higher cash rewards for a range of activities, including Races, Adversary Modes, and several Heist Finales.
