    Rockstar Games have just released a ‘Thank You’ message to the community posted on the Rockstar Newswire. The article tells us about new achievements GTA Online and Red Dead Online set in 2020 along with new gifts for players in GTA Online and Red Dead Online.

    GTAV and GTA Online

    Grand Theft Auto Online achievements new records in 2020. Rockstar Games have claimed that GTA Online had more players in 2020 than any other year since its release in 2013. Grand Theft Auto V also broke records in 2020 for the number of video views on Youtube.

    Rockstar Games also said that almost 50% of people who played the Cayo Perico HEIST update and played the finale of raiding the compound decided to do it alone, which shows people want solo content.

    Rockstar also made a statement regarding the update saying The Cayo Perico Heist also delivered the biggest update to the GTA Online music scene, including a wild tropical beach party and the launch of a new nightclub for players to socialize in — with performances from Moodymann, Keinemusik, and Palms Trax. Radio dial additions included new stations from Julian Casablancas and Joy Orbison, plus massive updates to already existing stations from Flying Lotus and Gilles Peterson. The scale of this update — which includes over 250 new songs — prompted Complex to proclaim that “The Cayo Perico Heist proves that Rockstar Games owns music curation.”

    This year, new updates will be coming to GTA Online along with new celebratory events, bonus GTA$, and a free vehicle.

    Log in and play GTA Online now until February 12th, 2021 to receive the Rockstar Cap and the Rockstar Rolling Tee. Both items will arrive in your Wardrobe next week.

    Red Dead Redemption 2 & Red Dead Online

    Red Dead Online also experienced new players, in December 2020 Red Dead Online had more players than any time since the launch of the beta back in 2018.

    Red Dead Redemption 2 also broke records in 2020 for the number of video views on Youtube. Also, Red Dead Online players who play can receive the Special bundle of gifts, which includes a free Horse, Free Stable Slot, 5,000 Club XP, and much more.

    Finally, new employment opportunities will be coming to Red Dead Online for Solo Players, along with new offers and rewards.

      How do you get the island I have taken planes over by where the island is supposed to be and can’t find it anywhere

    3. Chris W on February 6, 2021 5:19 am

      Having finally figured out the island heist and the paths the “soldiers” take, solo is the only way I’ll do it now. On to other things, I’m a long time player of GTAO and have been seriously disappointed with the vehicles that came with the cayo heist update. The 2 best, in my opinion, are the Itali RSX and the Toreador. Everything else has been pointless. I have spent some GTA cash but not as much as I did with the Summer update or the Casino update. I hope the next free vehicle will be better than the go kart lol it’s fun to drive but only for a few minutes. Keep bringing great updates with amazing vehicles and it’s almost a guarantee that GTAO and GTA5 will continue to hijack my personal time. I’m a lvl 889 and look to bust 1000 real soon, as long as the weekly events draw my interest.

      Thats all well on good but why not stop milking gta 5 and put some of the money from micro transactions and shark cards into gta 6 your probably making billion (i dont know) but make the next one bigger and better your fans will appreciate that much more over flying bikes that just P!$$ everybody off

    6. Reese on February 6, 2021 7:47 am

      This is a joke. I came from gta to rdr and saw how much potential they’ve blown on rdr while turning gta into a complete circus with way too much silly and in my opinion very childish content. By far red dead one and two have destroyed any gta game ever made. Rdo is a joke. And still better than gta.

      GTA is great to play but, I’ll never stream it. It’s great to be able to get in the car and listen to the radio like IRL. It isn’t so great to get a strike for copy written music for streaming a game where it’s playing. Maybe game developers could help us streamers, who are basically free advertising agents for them, by putting a clause in the contracts with those artists that, in game content can not be prosecuted for the music contained in the game while it’s being played as part of the game.

      If they want to go forward with more popular music in the games it’s a must that something be resolved. “Just turn off the music.” isn’t really benefiting anyone because, it is not showing the full potential of the game and the artists either. It is free advertising for both parties. It is part of the game. To strike streamers for something included in the game is insane.

      The reason people prefer to do the heists by themselves is because when you play with ransoms, they usually screw it up.

    9. Alex on February 6, 2021 10:04 am

      I dont meant to sound ungrateful but all we get is a cap and tee but the Red Dead playe4s gst a crap load of free things? Thats seems a bite….um……lame dontcha think? Like weve been playing GTA for the longest and thats what we get? A tee and a cap that most of us will never use? I think we deserve more than that

    10. Chris Kucharik on February 6, 2021 10:33 am

      For arguably the number one online multiplayer co-op game of its time, (congratulations by the way) the reason that 50% of your player base are playing the cayo perico heist solo has nothing to do with they want more solo content.

      That is a false conclusion based on accepting problems that you’re not fixing. There are two primary problems that need addressed:. 1) economics – want to see it first hand? Hire my consultancy Simple Leadership Consulting, and I’ll show you in one GTA weekly discount cycle.

      2) connecting good players – your multiplayer heist game mechanics are designed to make people annoyed with anything other than solo play or play with a known set of capable team members (who have a vested interest in team success).

      In other words you like everyone else, are taking data and drawing the wrong conclusion. No time like the present to change that!

      I love GTAO but as the previous commitment stated, the vehicles suck. A hummer with no armour protection. The Slam can that you can not use as a ramp or vehicle hauler. There are to many vehicles in the game that offer no protection. Basically not chance to fight back & defend yourself. I like the Oppressor but not being able to defend against it with 95% of the in game vehicles is ridiculous.

      Easy way to get players back to rdr2 – Mexico!

    13. Luis G. on February 6, 2021 3:55 pm

      Some players have done it solo cause that’s how they choose to play some of us that play it solo is due to the fact that solo makes more money then doing it in a group which is stupid seeing how there is so much loot on the island but even playing it with a crew of 3 the total take isn’t even half of what’s gathered during Intel. Rockstar should rebook at that part seeing how it makes no sense

    14. Zomby joe on February 6, 2021 6:27 pm

      The reason I think people prefer to do the hiest alone is because the grouping system is a royal pain. Wait forever, finally start. One person dies and leaves. Rather than be able to continue 1 down. The mission fails, the group disbanded. Rinse repeat.

      Bring in a new person mid mission, let partial groups continue. Halt the mission until a replacement comes. Any of these would be great!

    15. Boffo on February 6, 2021 9:44 pm

      “Achievements” in the title is misleading.

    16. Hiker Joe on February 7, 2021 1:22 pm

      Chris, go outside and feel the grass sometimes..please?
