First off I just want to say THANK YOU for an incredible launch so far, we really appreciate all of you and your good vibes! As we collect more information and make changes, we would like to keep you in the loop as the city develops. This space will include all of that information as updates are made. If there are things you feel should be adjusted, please head over to ⁠our Discord server and leave your thoughts!

First Big Update 3/6/2023

♻ We have adjusted the drop rates and prices at recycling to allow for a wider variety of materials.
❓ Not sure where to start? We have added a Help Center by the apartment elevators to help answer any questions!
🚘 A shipment of vehicles was spotted off the coast! It sounds like PDM might have some new imported rides for you to check out.

Update 3/7/2023

💵 No cash, but need a ride? We just increased vehicle financing payments to 48 hours! Swing by the back office at PDM every 2 days (IRL) to keep your ride from being repoed! If you take a few days away, no worries! Just make sure paying your lease is your first priority, you will have 15 minutes after flying in before the vehicle is repoed!
💢 Feeling stressed out? We hear you! Cars have been adjusted to only give stress when traveling at 90 MPH unbuckled or above 120 MPH in general.
⛽ That thing’s a gas guzzler! Fuel usage has been reduced by 20% to get you a little more bang for your buck. Keep in mind that driving at high RPMs will go through gas faster!

Update 3/8/2023

👚 Who likes boring drip? Not us! Head over to the clothing shop and see what new threads you can get your hands on!
💄 The plastic surgeon has a big discount and only charges $1!
🐻 Wild game is running rampant and needs to be dealt with! I heard a few guys are willing to pay a good price! Head over to PD and apply for your hunting license!
🎣 The mines are fun, but you need some fresh air! Word on the street is a nice guy is offering top dollar for a rare catch!

Update 3/10/2023

🔒 Unlock unlimited wealth! The pawnshop is overstocked on lockpicks right now and has lowered their price…but keep an eye out as this will change.
💎 Hands off my jewels! Vangelico has bumped up their security and can only be robbed with 3 active police officers in the city.
💵 It’s my money, and I want it now! It looks like PDM was charging some of your leases faster than they should be. Financing will be disabled going forward, but if you have a currently financed vehicle, you are fine to keep making payments; this will only affect new purchases.
🎣 Selling fish in a flash! His boss reprimanded the fishmonger for taking too long to buy your fish and is now working faster!
💧 I think I can help with this whole Pam/Pan situation! Less sediment is in the water, making it faster to pan for gold!
⛏ Hey, that’s mine! The mines are running low on ores due to being overworked. It will take some time before an excavation team can uncover the next layer of fresh ores.

Update 3/12/2023

🥤We took the WOOOoooOOck to Los Santos! Lean can now be crafted, sold, and taken.
💎Under Construction! Vangelico’s latest security system was installed by some schmucks that used to work at RadioShack. They’re bringing in some contractors this week and will be temporarily unavailable.
🏪They can’t keep getting away with it! Store owners have purchased more sophisticated registers that take longer to rob, might not be a bad idea to take a hostage.
👮🏼‍♂️Did you hear something? Police have installed more gunshot detection systems around the city.

Update 3/16/2023

🤐 Loose lips sink ships! PD found out about the money wash because somebody couldn’t keep their mouth shut…it’s setup in a new spot and if you find it first, I bet other people would be willing to pay you for that info!
💱 Supply and Demand! The economy is booming and that means more competition, but also more opportunity! Expect all selling prices to fluctuate regularly. If you don’t like today’s price, wait until tomorrow or strike up a deal with someone willing to pay your ask.
🎵 Hey I know that song! We’ve updated the in-flight entertainment, check it out next time you enter the city!
🥤 Lean on meeee! The lean plug got spooked by PD and decided it was time to relocate. He won’t tell us where, but mentioned something about beautiful sunsets…whatever that means.
🚘 I’m here about your car’s extended warranty! There was a recall on a few vehicles that were deemed too fast and unsafe by the manufacturer. Minor adjustments have been made to keep them street legal.

Update 3/19/2023

👨‍🌾 Don’t put all your eggs in one basket! There’s a new farmer in town that purchased some acreage up in Grapeseed. Spend some time on the farm growing crops and deliver them down in the city for cash or use some of those goods to brew your own liquor!
💵 Better together! We have introduced a referral system to the city! When a new visitor flies in they will be prompted to enter a referral code before creating their character. After 30 minutes, they will be credited $10k just for using your code and you get $5k for referring them! To get your referral code use /referrals and see it next to “Referrals Management” and claim your rewards. You can also see who is leading at bringing the most people in the city! Who knows me just might do something cool for our leaders!
🤑 We appreciate you! If you left a review for us outside of the city, expect some extra money in the bank next time you fly in as a token of our gratitude!

Update 3/24/2023

💎Are you feelin lucky? The wheel spin vehicle has been swapped out for a Ferrari 458! Swing by Diamond Casino and try your luck!
♻ Bro you smell! Someone has been dumping valuable items in trash cans around the city, might be worth getting your hands dirty.
🛹Who needs a car? A new skate shop just opened up on Vespucci with an electric skateboard for you to carve up Los Santos with!

Update 3/27/2023

🏥 Lean on me, but not too hard! The government has put new rules on codeine sales, so pharmacies now have a limit on how much they can stock. To keep up with demand, many pharmacies have opened more locations across the city. Keep your eyes peeled, as it may take some extra searching to find the right spot. Let’s all use and distribute it responsibly!
💔 Our hearts go out to Wavy Jones and his family, as they mourn the loss of his beloved grandfather. As the only heir, Wavy has inherited his grandfather’s cherished restaurant, Taco Libre, and his house, which hold many precious memories. It’s a difficult decision, but Wavy has decided to auction off the house. Let’s offer our support to Wavy and his family during this challenging time, and may the legacy of Taco Libre continue to bring joy to our community.
🌮 Get ready for a fiesta! Taco Libre is opening soon in our city! Enjoy authentic Mexican flavors and refreshing drinks. Stay tuned for more details on the opening date and special promotions. Don’t miss out on this flavor journey!
🛡️ Attention, soldiers! There’s a new face in town, an ex-military guy with something that could be a real lifesaver. We can’t say much, but keep your eyes peeled for him and his gear. It might just give you the edge you need to make it out alive in a tight spot. Stay vigilant and always be prepared for what’s coming next.
🌴 Life’s a beach! We’ve received word that a ship has reportedly sunk off the coast, and some of its cargo may have floated on shore. Keep an eye out for any mysterious crates on the beach!

Update 3/31/2023

📱Don’t text, don’t call! We’re happy to announce that the phone will be receiving a major overhaul in the next restart TONIGHT @ 10:00 P.M EST. There are a ton of new apps and features that we think you’ll really enjoy! Just a heads up, we’ve noticed a couple of small bugs when sending money where you may get stuck with a package in your hand.If this happens, please think about /clearstuckprops and flex your ragdoll muscle if needed, but we recommend ***NOT USING APPLE PAY FOR NOW.*** Also, we are aware the phone does not support music in the same way as the previous model, but we’re working on it 😎
