Updates

Was wondering if anybody knew what might actually be in the next update. Also does anybody think there’s a chance we ever get new holster positions and draws?

Right now, whatever the ideas for the next DLC was, has for shure been changed, and the DLC is delayed for unknown time.

The western world is in more or less complete shotdown mode and that means games development aswell. Motion capture studios are shutdown and voice actors cant work.

Moust R* employees  works from home now but it is very limited to what they can do whitout the tools that are exlusivly at their office, plus R* are allso taking steps to remove the "crunsh" workstyle R* has been so infamously know for.

 

What we moust likely will see over the spring/summer are content that does not require motion capture, animation programming or voice actors, made by tools not limited to their office.

So pvp game modes and free roaming events and variations of exisiting clothing/items is going to be the dominant new content for the game this year. Even bughunting is questionable at this point since we dont know if the tools they use are office exlusive only. (when we recived the last bugfix, C19 had not even reached u.s.a)

The fact is that nobody knows for sure.  R* is famous for being tight lipped about such things until the eleventh hour.

As far as the lockdown having such dramatic effects, that really depends. There are other game companies still developing new games and new content, updates and bug fixes without skipping a beat it seems.  .......all while their employees are working from home.  

What we do know for sure is that R* is still doing their weekly bonuses, discounts, PvP mode changes, etc. every Tuesday which gets posted in the Online forum.  Here is statement R* released in March so beyond this is speculation:
