Last Team Standing update lands on GTA Online

High stakes multiplayer mode Last Team Standing, where players are given but one life, has just been updated by Rockstar for GTA Online.

The new update includes "powerful weaponry, tactical gear, high-performance vehicles and all-new Creator features," as well as ten new Jobs across Los Santos and Blaine County. There's a lot of info here available on Rockstar's Newswire (also, full patch notes are available here), but the main thrust of it is thus:

Ammu-nation will now stock two new weapons, the Heavy Shotgun and the Marksman Rifle, and elsewhere you can grab new outfits, masks, clothes and whatnot. There's also two new motorcycles - the Shitzu Hakuchou sport bike and the LCC Innovation chopper, and there's the "elite style" Lampadati Furore GT.

Players can now design original GTA Online Jobs in the new Last Team Standing Creator Mode (which includes "a new option for building even more dynamic matches across other modes - with the ability to add Rounds to Captures and Last Team Standing Jobs. Or raise the stakes by adding rounds to Rockstar Created LTS, Captures and Versus Missions. And be sure to take advantage of the new Forced Weapon setting, allowing you to limit weapons for specific options like Snipers-Only"). There's a handy how-to guide here).


Rockstar also released info regarding the ten new Last Team Standing Jobs:

Alta (Rank 16, 2-8 Players) Less violent than the average apartment building residents' committee meeting, this cramped LTS pits two wings of a building against each other. Try to stay on the rooftops, and look for long-ranged attacks across the courtyard and close-quarters clashes on the footbridge.

Del Perro Freeway (Rank 23, 2-16 Players) Draw a line in the sand with this Del Perro Beach LTS. Teams start at either end of the beachfront houses. They can go at each other directly or take the pedestrian bridges across the WH to pick up weapons. Dr. Friedlander isn't running his conflict resolution seminar this week.

Grand Banks (Rank 9, 3-12 Players) As good a place as any to make a stand, three groups take the third way at the Grand Banks Steel foundry. Fight on the rooftops, in the tunnels, and along the gangways to be the only team that doesn't get to fulfil their death wish.

Hawick (Rank 16, 2-16 Players) Two teams snipe each other from rooftops or get down and dirty in the alleys with shotguns until there's only one of them left. Hawick hasn't seen this many unfortunate accidents since speedballs were cool in the 80s.

Mount Josiah (Rank 29, 2-16 players) When the dust settles, and the rivers stop running with blood, who'll be left on top of the second highest mountain in Southern San Andreas? Two teams fight to be king of the hill on the open, almost coverless slopes of Mount Josiah.

N.O.O.S.E. (Rank 9, 2-8 Players) Something's happening behind the mysterious chain link fences, and non-descript 'government facility' signs off the Palomino Freeway. Two teams have taken time off from spying on personal communications to fight for supremacy on the rooftops, walkways, and parking lots of the N.O.O.S.E. facility. Look up for the best weapons.

Paleto Bay - Tanks (Rank 29, 2-16 Players) Some places get all the luck. Two teams face off with tanks and explosives and don't mind if they turn the whole town to rubble. Who'll be left standing in what's left of Paleto Bay?

Skyscraper (Rank 36, 2-16 Players) There's no escape from Los Santos. One team tries to hold out at the top of a skyscraper construction site armed only with sniper rifles and heavy weapons. The other team launches a four pronged assault in Buzzard attack helicopters.

Storm Drain (Rank 23, 2-16 Players) Gang warfare's gotten really out of hand as two teams come at each other with tanks, motorbikes, and explosives in the concrete channel of the LS River. Try to stay in the storm drain, and don't worry about flash flooding, there's a drought in San Andreas after all.

Tataviam Truckstop (Rank 16, 2-8 Players) Lonely truckers and enterprising hitchhikers are in for a scare as this pit stop on the Palomino sees its share of the action. Small scale LTS that'll make good use of the Heavy Shotgun.
