GTA 5

GTA 5 is about to blow his second candle, and after more than two years of existence, Rockstar Games has decided to inject fresh content in its GTA Online, history that players remain active on servers that are depopulated. No robberies several this time, but the new activities available in free mode; meaning that any player on the server can take part without any invitation. So we traveled to London to try this second major update in preview.

Tired of turning redo the Pacific Standard for the 250th time? Tired of waiting for the players accept your invitation to go on a mission? Depressed by the few bucks in your possession while there is a plethora of things to buy? No problem, the developers of Rockstar Games have heard you and deploy next September 15 a second major update that might please you with its FreeMode Events. More concretely, it is all the competitions in which players on the servers can participate, and that will launch every 12 minutes. Obviously, you are not obliged to take part, even if you choose to boycott the festivities in progress, you can still watch the participants or put your two cents to sow chaos. Activities are varied and are triggered in two ways: either it is necessary to go to a specific location before starting the game, either these settlements can take place directly where you are. Overview of events we have tried.


The most friendly since it is also the hardest business. Broadly, when the activity starts, a player (having previously agreed) becomes the target: the beast. You will then find your personal reskiné and rigged a head werewolf, and your objective is to successfully pass through the myriad checkpoints, knowing that the latter will give you victory. Nothing complicated so far, except that all players on the server will be chasing you, the first to get you winning the game. To survive, the beast has certain advantages: more life and accelerated speed. But the greatest is to completely disappear from the radar of the players. Well, almost, because your indicator reappears a moment every time you cross a checkpoint, knowing that a grunt can also be heard by hunters when they are within 150 meters of the goal. In short, part of giant and very exciting fighter, especially when the animal remains sufficiently discreet and everyone is wondering where she is.

THE checkpoints

The rules are simple: 120 waypoints appear on the map, after 10 minutes, the player who took the most wins. This game has three variants, a terrestrial, maritime and aerial.


GTA 5Evidemment, there will be many other activities FreeMode Events, especially as some we've tried will be available in other versions. Long jump, height, longest freefall, longest wheelie, stoppie longer; there will be plenty to do. Among the challenges that we did not test, include the Moving Target (a target vehicle is on the map, the first player to book wins the base), the Kill List (a target vehicle is on the map, players who board must then survive as long to NPCs waves), Time Trial (a race between two points which changes weekly, with a reference time achieved by Rosckstar Games that you must fight), the Hold the Wheel (a vehicle is marked on the map for 5 minutes, the player who is in the vehicle at the end of lap wins), the Hot Property (a briefcase that you need to recover, who lugs around the longest wins) Dead Drop (a briefcase that must be delivered in a given location, the player making the delivery wins the game), or the King of the Castle (capture the individual objective)

In addition to these challenges, Rockstar Games has also added two new types of adversary missions. The first, called Cross The Line, puts you in a place divided into two camps, one for each team of players. The objective is simple: to get his team in the opposing camp by preventing your opponents from doing the same. At the end of lap if no team has completely crossed the line, the one with the most players in the opposing side wins. The second mode, called Hunting Pack, he will face two teams in vehicles. One which defends must protect with its three cars of one of its members whose aim is to convey a truck up a goal, knowing that if he stops, a bomb will blast while giving the victory to the attackers . These have, in turn, four cars with which they have to block the truck and three cars dispose of defending. A kind of adaptation of the VIP mode Counter-Strike with cars instead of firearms.
