Grand Theft Auto Online‘S The latest update is now available, and it’s from Rockstar official “Newswire” website didn’t post exact details, I’ve already played the new mode, the stars GTA V Characters Franklin and Lamar. And while the new update isn’t amazing or anything, the timing will most likely add to the annoyance Red Dead Online Players desperate for new content after almost seven months of silence from Rockstar.
Double Down is a new asymmetric variant of Adversary Mode that has just been added GTA Online earlier today. It uses the older Franklin and Lamar character models as seen in the last big part GTA Online To update, The contract with Dr. dr, which came out in December. In Double Down, two players take on the roles of the older but still dangerous duo and must take on up to eight enemy players, each wielding double-barreled shotguns and infinite lives. The duo must survive for four minutes and, unlike the attacking players, only have one life each. But they also have more weapons and explosives.
On paper this sounds like a fun idea, pitting an army of ever spawning maniacs against two players with tons of guns. In practice, it’s a bit troublesome. The problem is that while Franklin and Lamar have a nice arsenal of rifles and bombs, it’s still an unfair fight against one-shot, one-kill shotguns carried by an army of players coming from all directions run towards her. Add a classic GTA Online jank and you are having a decidedly disappointing experience. In the matches I played, Franklin and Lamar never won. And most players dropped out after just one game, despite the mode offering triple RP. Not a good sign.
However, e.g Red Dead Online Players desperate for new content, even this mediocre new asymmetric horde mode seems like a pipe dream. It’s even more frustrating than this new one GTA Online Update brings some legacy characters, something, that RDO Fans would love it too. It is interesting that hours after GTA Online Update went live on all platforms, Rockstar still hasn’t tweeted or announced the new game mode posted any blogs about it. Maybe the publisher is just running late, or maybe they don’t feel like this is a good time to announce one GTA Online update when his other huge gaming community is starving.
Regardless (and that the new mode sucks), I’m still excited for Rockstar to bring Lamar and Franklin back GTA Online. This duo was the best part of The Contract expansion last year and I’m excited to see what the future holds GTA Online Now that Rockstar seems more ready than ever to commit to its post-GTA V Timeline and Narrative. And I also wonder if Red Dead Onlinee still has a future.
