THE DIAMOND CASINO & RESORT GRAND OPENING - JULY 23RD

[Dodge 7,265]

I'll be able to host and join on the missions. 

[Beez 5,091]

I have tomorrow off and will be online. Happy to help anyone and might be hosting jobs myself.

I want that new Le Mans car!! w00t!

[Sinister 2,583]

Read that most all of the cars coming with this are in the Sports class. Like I need an even longer list to dig through before a race, lol. 

Zero new weapons. Would be strange to not see at least one.

Mine was. R* has said that some players will not see the discount. They said to go ahead and buy it and you will get a refund. 

 

[Sinister 2,583]

@Dodge will be happy to know that 2 MOPARS are coming. Gauntlet Classic and the Gauntlet Hellfire (HellCat).

[Sinister 2,583]

All new cars have the advanced handling flags. R* even added a new one. 

They did tweak the suspension one that made cars like the GTO super bouncy.

[zztop911 1,609]

You can no longer be passive in any weaponized vehicle.

Cool down on using passive with other changes to it.

Poor griefers just spanked a bit.

The new handling files have a very small effect. 

Even the old handling flags are far better now. 

 

Sucks they didn’t make this for everyone!! I also want to, at least, spin the wheel to try to win the car!!!

For no frills it's a $1.5million buy in which isn't so bad for GTA. That's basically just a full bunker and a nightclub sale. And the frills are almost entirely vanity purchases anyway.

 

Good news to hear about the handling flags, that will be fun to test. 

Other highlights from the Patch Notes include:

Nightclub popularity missions now raise it by 25% instead of 10%.

The big things like the Avenger and MOC are now in a new category in the interaction menu.

The Declassee Impaler is purchasable from Arena Wars, so I'm guessing it wasn't for sale before? Or is a new Arena War vehicle?

Also I don't know if it's been mentioned but you can only buy a max of 50K worth of chips at once. Then there is a cool down of maybe an hour or so before you can buy more.

7 cars had the suspension flag adjusted so the do not bounce so badly. Clique, Italia GTO to name a couple. Everything else is the same, terrible driving turd they have always been. The Ellie was not touched for example.

[zztop911 1,609]

Good news about the Clique

 

[Sinister 2,583]

The Casino Chip cool down is one in game day. 

[zztop911 1,609]

All 54 card locations.

 

Spoiler

Is the wheel cooldown one real 24 hour period?

I've done almost all of them on the oppressor without getting off........including most that are interior placed.

Well, lets keep in mind that the Deveste eight might have a word in that with the changes they made in the advanced handling flags. The sports have already changed with the GTO now being the fastest around that track! 

In muscles, the clique and the impaler also might have some improvements as well as the issi might be the new fastest rally car

[Sinister 2,583]

So the new car has a use on street tracks, guess I should have kept it. Oh well as he mentioned with top speed it is useless on a stunt track and I spend most all my time there.

both the thrax and the S80rr are very usefull. But on a stunt track, the Deveste 8 should be uncontested king, now that the handling flags are tuned way down from what they used to be!

[zztop911 1,609]

Remember. you can do all the casino missions AND Ms Baker's work in an invite only lobby.

I think there is some sort of reward for 50 casino jobs completed. I don't know if that's just her work or it includes the missions.
