GTA 5 Online: The High Life Update Released with Complete Details, Full Patch Notes

Rockstar Games has released its latest The High Life update for GTA Online.

Rockstar has finally released the High Life Update, one of the most eagerly awaited updates for GTA Online. This new update adds new properties, luxury apartments, new vehicles, a Bullpup rifle, Rockstar-created Jobs, new features, improvements and fixes.

New Properties

The new update will now allow players to own two properties and will see five new luxury apartments. New estate listings will be found at Eclipse Towers in Vinewood, Richards Majestic in Rockford Hills, Tinsel Towers in Little Seoul, 4 Integrity Way in Downtown, and Del Perro Heights by the beach.

"The High Life Update gives you the chance to live large in Los Santos" said Rockstar in a post on Newswire. Players looking for new property can either drive to those locations or can purchase them at Dynasty8realestate.com.

New Vehicles

Apart from the fact that players will now be able to park their vehicles in two of the apartment garages, they will also be getting the following luxury cars and a new motorbike:

Enus Huntley S (SUV)
Dewbauchee Massacro (Sports)
Pegassi Zentorno (Super)
Dinka Thrust (Motorcycle)

The above vehicles can be bought from Legendary Motorsport. Additionally, Rockstar confirmed that these vehicles can be got hold of from any garage in the Story Mode.

New Weapon

The High Life Update also adds the promised Bullpup Rifle. This has been made available in Ammu-Nation.

Rockstar-created Jobs

Rockstar has also added a new feature, Rockstar-created Jobs on GTA Online that will add 8 new Contact missions that will be inclusive of Capture, Survival, TDM and Last Team Standing mode Jobs.

Below is the list of Contact missions:

GTA Today
Artificial Scarcity
Crime Scenester
Hit 'Em Up
Master Data
Handle with Care
On the List
Denial of Service

Land Races include:

Stock Market Crash
Loss Leader
Home In The Hills
Thrusting Motion

Currently, the new Jobs have not been activated and Rockstar has said players will be able to access them "later today" and the respective links to the Jobs will be posted at the Social Club site.

New Features

The High Life Update will be adding new features and enhancements for the game.

Mental State stat – This will keep a track on the behavior of the player. This new feature will allow players to judge if their rival is psychotic or friendly. A blip will turn red if it finds u terrorizing other players or attacking pedestrians but if the blip is white that means you are friendlier. However, killing a "full-on" phycho will not affect your Mental State stat. This feature will also be affecting the player's matchmaking where players will automatically join other players with a compatible play style in Freemode sessions.
Non-Contact Races – This has been now made optional and when this race is created, other races will be semi-transparent and collisions with them have been disabled though players will still be colliding with non-player traffic and structures.
Friend Spectate – This is a new option that will allow friends playing in separate GTA Online session to 'spectate' the player via Friends menu.
New clothing – Stylish new outfits have been made available including a pret-a-porter jacket, trousers, suit vest and shoes.
New player toasts and celebrations – The update has added new celebrations like jazz hands, a face palm, a slow clap and more. Players can now handshake or backslap while celebrating with a friend.
Vehicles form Story Mode – About 10 vehicles from Story Mode will be made available in GTA Online. These vehicles will be available at southernsanandreassuperautos.com and legendarymotorsport.net

The 10 vehicles from Story Mode are:

- Bravado Banshee Topless

- Inverto Coquette Topless

- Vapid Dominator Ocelot F620

- Schyster Fusilade

- Maibatsu Penumbra

- Ubermacht Sentinel XS

- Ubermacht Sentinel (Convertible)

- Grotti Stinger Topless

- Coil Voltic Topless

Improvements and Fixes:

Bike physics has been changed
Fixed an exploit where players were able to shoot in their garages.
Fixed an issue where players would occasionally not be able to reclaim a vehicle despite it being insured.
Fixed an issue where the water cannon on the Fire Truck did not work correctly.

Rockstar has also said that players can expect new details on High Life Weekend Social Club Event on 16 May that will include in-game bonuses, Rockstar-hosted live stream, rare gear sweepstakes and more.
