The reason why Los Santos Summer Special was so small was because Rockstar had planned for the Cops’n Crooks DLC to release as the summer DLC. They cancelled the DLC due to all the controversy with police officers at the time.
Fucking cops and crooks! Easily the biggest load of bullshit ever created. That was clickbait homie. That shit was invented by clickbaiters. Rockstar has never been afraid to get controversial. If they wanted to do a cops dlc they would’ve. They’ve never been afraid of not being politically correct

I started playing last year which is why I think almost all updates except the arena were great updates. After doing cayo, I was constantly thinking what should I buy next ceo office, biker, agency, bunker, nightclub, autoshop, arcade etc. This is the game I felt truly had massive content and it was an amazing experience.
"bUt SaN aNdReAs HaD a JeTpAcK iN iT sO tHe OpPrEsSoR mK2 bElOnGs In GtA oNlInE" -some griefers, most likely completely forgetting that it is by far the rare exception, and also its offensive capabilities are severely limited to a pistol or a micro smg. oppressor mk2 is just one among many futuristic vehicles in gta online, and its offensive capabilities are just broken.
The Doomsday Heist is my favorite update. It has great music, it's very cinematic, it has great action, it added more mk2 weapons, it added amazing vehicles, and it's about the only thing left in Online that can present a challenge to me.
my fav will always be the casino Heist it was truly the dawn of a new great age of Gta 5 you got to rob a huge casino we got all these cool guns cars ect i just loved that update AND IT WAS THE FRIST HEIST IN ONLINE TO LET US PICK A APPROCH not like the boring og heists i loved in story mode how you could pick and when they brought it to online it made me hella happy
The main reason behind the filght school was to give people a way to get better at flying to help with the OG heists. I don't really know how much it helped with that cause every time I tried to do any set up with a plane or heli people would crash all the time! Back then I remember a lot of people not even being able to land planes consistently. It's the main reason why to this day I insist on being the one to fly every chance I get. I GOT PTSD!
And it still happens. Try to join some apartment heists, your PTSD will triple. Now I get bored I join random heists to see people crash and end the heist
Two weeks since you had this video out and no one pointed out something you forgot about Gun Running. That was the update that changed how VIP worked. Instead of needing a million in your bank account, you now only needed $50k to start up an organization. That was the update that "fixed" the VIP mechanic of GTAO. You talked about how it was in the past (which I'm thankful for as tons of people forget), but you forgot to mention when it was changed. Professional, broski, I can't believe you forgot to mention it. I can't believe I forgot to watch this sooner, but that's another story. Even with that error, thanks for the video.
I actually managed to go to a car meet once in a public lobby, it was a nice 15 minutes of seeing everyone’s cars and just being friendly. But just that 15 minutes.
Bikers was the update that brought me back to the game after a long hiatus to GTAO but I completely ignored the Los Santos Summer Special as my dad died a month before
In my personal opinion i liked the Executives and other criminals update, just because of the yacht, sometimes, i want to get away from the chaos that is los santos, i'm protected from arial strikes.other than that yea the summer special update was boring i did like the final mission in the thunder storm
As shitty as the arena wars mode is, the cars are some of the most fun vehicles to use in free mode; Launching cars across the city, shunt hopping, sumo with friends, etc.
My top 5 best updates: 5- Bikers 4- Import Export 3- Heists 2- Cayo Perico Heist 1- Diamond Casino Heist Small update honorable mention: - San Andreas Open Wheel GP *Aka F1 update :)
I guarantee all dlcs will be locked behind a paywall. Free for gta+, $20 to $30 for everyone else. Rockstar CEO said game cost should be tied to hours played. Mark my words, free dlcs end when the new online comes out.
I think Doomsday Heist was the last genuinely great update for GTAO. That's when the game was at it's peak. And since RDR2 was around the corner when it came out, I fully expected that to be the last major update, and everything would be shifted towards GTA6 and RDO. In hindsight that was obviously wishful thinking but considering the current state of GTAO, I wish that was the actual case. Before anybody mentions Cayo Perico, I will concede and say that was the best money-making update in the game, even moreso than the Casino Heist one. I still think Doomsday Heist tops it but I will agree that Cayo Perico is not that far behind Doomsday Heist.
Cayo was the best best money-making update because it was finally a heist that paid out enough to be viable for grinding. The reason everyone did cayo was because business are slow, boring and high risk. Why spend hours grinding the same boring crates, hearing the same annoying NPCs call you, when you could listen to the soothing voice of pavel and raid a island and get a big reward for doing such. If other businesses and heists where as fun as cayo more people would play them.
Happy 10th Anniversary GTA Online. Honestly, my number 1 best DLC ever made for GTA Online was actually The Contract. For me, it was the closest thing to what I imagined to be a perfect GTA Online update! It is so good actually that I run between the Dr Dre story and businesses as my GTA money method. Especially so since the Cayo guards detecting dead bodies became a thing… The contract DLC is just such a beautiful update for the following reasons: - Dr Dre story. - Freemode activities (Security Contracts and Franklin’s Payphone missions). - Imani Tech vehicle upgrades. - Franklin & Lamar co-op missions. - Nothing ridiculously overpowered or overpriced. - Missions & activities are well-balanced. - Something for both solo and co-op players. - Even the most annoying missions are tolerable compared to the annoying missions in other DLCs. - Not really set up to milk micro-transaction sales.
The Agency takes the cake for being the most FUN of all the businesses. Sure it doesn't net you that massive burst of cash that the other businesses do, but you get a good amount just doing Security Contracts and Payphone Hits, and they can be done solo or with friends (if they're willing to help you for very little payout). There's always a sense of progression in completing them as opposed to having to source cargo and supplies first before a big sale later. Security Contracts and Payphone hits pay out the money immediately, and the Dr. Dre heist never has its progress restarted just because you failed a mission. It's a nice, safe and steady source of income with a decently large variety of activities that keep it from getting stale too quickly, AND it comes with a MUCH BETTER OFFICE than the CEO one that provides you with a lot of logistical support (free company car, free helicopter, free snacks Big Garage, Vehicle workshop, fast travel options, discounted weapons/ammo and a loadout locker) It's a lot of bang for your buck even when playing alone, and the activities all feel like they're in the spirit of GTA.
It was sad hearing how they nerfed the Cayo Perico Heist. I enjoyed every moment of it when it came out. I always made sure to set up a new one each time after completing the previous so it was always on hard difficulty for the higher payout. I remember doing the door glitch constantly to get the gold bars while solo. I grinded the hell out of the Cayo Heist. It is the reason why I was able to afford so much stuff. Some businesses I didn't have yet, business upgrades, vehicles etc.
I love After Hours the most for me very personally The nightclub fits so much with own character who's originally a musician and probably the reason I expanded her character into an enterprising criminal. I loved roleplaying her masking as a night club owner who secretly has system of accruing contrabands and valuables. I love the Terrobyte and the fact Paige made it, is actually quite interesting. I loved the 3 different nightclub delivery vehicles. It's really sad though on one hand, I find the Oppressor Mk 2, on its own, a very aesthetically pleasing and useful but fun vehicle, but I agree with the consensus that it just doesn't fit the GTA genre and timeline, and its abuse by griefers.
I always love that aspect of engaging in criminal activities that make sense with your personal character and the story you gave them. Rather than earning to try and obtain every single criminal business on a character, I use my 2 character slots to own different businesses that the other doesn't have, with backgrounds that line up with their work: 1st character is formerly from a Mexican gang/cartel family with a lot of inherited connections and contacts that worked a lot with smuggling and contraband sale so they run a CEO office and the Weapon Bunker. 2nd Character is a college chemistry major drop-out turned grease-monkey vandal and arsonist so he runs an Auto Shop and Motorcycle Club while working in Acid production with the Fooliganz to both earn legit money while still having opportunities to instigate the chaos he revels in.
As someone who came in only at the Alien War, this is incredibly fascinating to watch. A lot has happened before and a lot has happened after. I’m curious for what’s next.
The tuners DLC got me back into the game in the first place, so it has to be in my top 3. Cayo Perico dlc, easily because I was able to afford all the cars from the tuners DLC. I actually enjoyed the drug wars dlc, especially getting the acid lab up and running.
@@geeksimmer2488that update has a boring story with annoying characters yelling “BADONKADONK” over and over. Missions are literally recycled from single player. Drug wars is definitely one of the worst updates
one thing they have never done in online really is the epsilon program. yes you have formage when you first get killed in online appear but no content with missions etc, they did have michael in story mode but nothing in online. maybe nothing good would work there, but seems like it might have some possibilities
Yeah, tuners update (with KDJ & Sessanta) is what got me to play with my game sound off. Only turn it on when playing any mode where I have to hear lock-on sound. Never going back
couple that with the hangar business improvements and you've got yourself a really good way to kill time and make a metric f*ck-ton of money in the process.
Jus FYI, the los santos special was supposed to be the cops n' crooks update, but because of the murder of george floyd Rockstar thought it would be a bad idea to release a police themed uptade
Hey professional how are you doing, happy belated 10th bday to GTA online 🥳. You put a lot of dedication to your videos and I admire that so much! I was talking to GhillieMaster in one of his GTA online streams yesterday celebrating the 10th anniversary of online like you and I told him that "The Professional hasn't uploaded his video about the 10th anniversary of GTA online maybe he's taking time to pay a great homage to it" and then he replied saying "maybe he's not gonna make one" and then I said to him that " The professional said he's gonna make a special video about GTA 5". You're like the rockstar of GTA content creators pro you put a lot of thought and dedication in your videos and it shows clearly. This ain't a dig at other content creators but you like to do stuff differently from other content creators and you seem more thoughtful about the content u put out which I'm a fan of! 👏🏾👏🏾
My opinion of the content and short reasons as to why My best updates are: Cayo Perico (big money and map expansion) After Hours (passive pay from both areas) The Contract (love letter to GTA V story fans) LS Tuners (cool cars and cool min heists) My Great updates are: Heists (OG fun times) Diamond Heist (Cool approaches) Doomsday Heists (Cool story and good pay) Import/Export (Cool concept and ok pay) My Average updates are: Bikers (good money) Criminal Enterprises (I like the IAA agent thing- hoped it was better expanded and more missions) Diamond Casino Story (Good story and new location) Gunrunning (cool new ammo) Everything not mentioned is in the bad updates
I think further adventures in finance and felony should be in average, cause that was the first business that was profitable at the time and allowed us to make money for future updates.
Honestly i dont care about this game anymore but i admidit that if it was not for one of your guides i would have never discovered your channel and the sniper elite series thanks to you
I wish Rockstar would make a GTA Online Mafia Updates and maybe like Gravetti or Petrovic or one of the five families of Liberty City and the storyline could be one of the five families want your character to help them to get into Los Santos.
Honestly cartel update would be better than Mafia update because with a cartel update we get clothing items shoes pretty fancy and kind of cartel Street gang like militarized items new helmets new shirts new armored vehicles like the monster they use in rea Life upgrades for older vehicles with guns on top of it mansions new planes helicopters stingers new explosive RPGs the list goes on
1:06:50 Twice? Thats lucky for you. My plane guy blew up over and over again. I decided to be the plane guy instead but then the people inside the prison kept dying :(
Ive been playing online since i was 15 with no idea how to play or make real money if i ever make it imma have to shout you out you for help you provided through the years
Ngl i'd have to say the Casino Heist & Doomsday heist is the best updates Endless fun Sure the Doomsday heist was annoying with the setups But it has a fun glitch with Act 2 to get money easily
47:24 The thing is Mr. TheProfessional, they are not just a couple. They are a BLACK couple, thats why they are flirting with each other every 5 minutes. Also in 48:26 they just curse a lot because, they black as hell
I like doing Doomsday heists as they are a little more challenging but the bugs like ULP or Agent 14 not moving when they should or CEO quitting when they don't quit.
The worst thing about all these DLC's is they broke the game economy from bad to worse. All kind of pay walls to boost sharkcard sales. And the countless bugs that came for free with them. OMG!!!, reloaded this game a zillion times.....😢
Funny how the best DLCs are the ones that have little to nothing to do with the actual multiplayer aspects that are meant to be the focus of GTA Online. As we see GTA Online evolve to further be a single player game, I hope they continue this by continuing to give us quality of life improvements by making everything in the game be done by yourself, including the content that aren’t and are locked off unless you have another player with you doing it with you, such as the Casino story missions as a good example, to every single heist of old.
I would've placed the San Andreas Merceneries DLC as the worst update by far The notion that already existing content can just be yanked away without even a shred of justification (like a pissy copyright holder) is *extremely dangerous* The gaming industry has been allowed to go wild with loot boxes, battle passes and unplayable releases This is another front that we can't afford to lose
Best dlc for me and it still is a top 3 dlc for me and that’s gun running, second place goes to when the ceo buildings came out, third is the biker business
Man I was in High School when GTA 5 was announced, it was the only thing me and every other guy was talking about, then came online, and everyone liked it. But it was heist was announced I remember most, I was in the weight room, and all the guys and I where talking about how awesome the OG heists where going to be. Man I miss those days.
To be honest, I'd rate it this way: 1. Cayo Perico Heist 2. Diamond Casino Heist 3. The Contract 4. Doomsday Heist 5. Heists 6. Bikers 7. Gunrunning 8. Finance and Felony 9. Tuners these updates are quite nice but with Cayo being nerfed to oblivion, it's just sad. Been playing 400 hours since the Epic free game scenario. Don't get me wrong, GTA online is good but the wrongs outweigh the good things, which is so sad. And GTA+ and PS5/XSX exclusive content made it so bad unfortunately 😔
My biggest problem with KD and Ses isn’t the cursing or the flirting. It’s that they’re too bossy and take credit when I’m the one putting my neck on the line
Man. This game came out when i had just started my last year of HS. Of all the games i wish i played more of since graduation, this would definitely be in the top 3.
My top3 DLCs: 3: Beach Bum DLC. The best things in life are free. 2. Content Creator. When R* lets you down, the creator community doesn't. Endless hours of high quality content that keeps the game fresh and alive. 1. Heists. The DLC that saved GTA Online and was the sign of great things to come. RDR2 Online desperately needed a DLC like this.
Did anyone noticed after dlc the guys in warehouse not talking anymore? Pavel isnt talking to you when u get on the bridge as usual or say goodbye when you leave😂 what pisses me off isnt the dlc crap thats already normal i have no expectations but they always mess up something else when releasing a dlc .
Agency Was great because I don’t have to play it anymore I made my 200 contracts and that’s the end of it for me, 13 mil and it’s all paid off, did the Dre contract 1 time and 20k a day is much better than having to restock or Swap DJ’s imo
I found honestly say this is another variable reason why I have a love hate relationship ship with rockstar. DLCs here are like a roller coaster but killing Johnny Klebitz and enabling griefers is what solidified my frustrations with them
I feel the Doomsday heist wouldve been A tier if it hadn't added the orbital cannon, one of the most game breaking features of GTAO that R* took an absurd amount of time fixing. One of the dumbest gamr mechanics I've seen outside of MW2's building 21 playlist being weekends only.
Arena war, brilliant idea, horrible execution. A demo derby mode with overprices vehicles, crappy pay, and in a game where car combat is pretty terrible. Guns feel almost useless, collision damage is almost non existent . the only weapons that feel satisfying to use are the ones that kill instantly. Otherwise you just feel like your shooting bbs at them.
As a day one player 2013 was some of the most fun in gta online because every Deathmatch and race was always full and i played those endlessly without being burned out lmao i know not everyone would feel the same but i know for damn sure other people would play all day like me and completely ignore the contact missions 😂 also back then the buzzard was my go 2 vehicle and still is in 2024 some things never change

Same here friend, I started my character around a year as well and enjoying the hours of content lol.
The only reason why I bought the arena is so that Bryony doesn't keep calling me everytime I log online it's annoying!
shouldn't have went to the B on the map!!!11!1!1!!1!1!
Only brought it for the extra car storage
The Cayo nerf.... who in Satan's crack is controlling what happens at Rockstar?!
Rockstar Can't Do Shit, Blame Take-Two Interactive, And Strauss Zelnick.
The hot tub conversation between Sessanta and KDJ is probably the cringiest conversation from the tuners update, or probably in the entirety of GTA.
GTA online cringe is proof of how bad GTA VI will be
"bUt SaN aNdReAs HaD a JeTpAcK iN iT sO tHe OpPrEsSoR mK2 bElOnGs In GtA oNlInE" -some griefers, most likely
completely forgetting that it is by far the rare exception, and also its offensive capabilities are severely limited to a pistol or a micro smg. oppressor mk2 is just one among many futuristic vehicles in gta online, and its offensive capabilities are just broken.
The Doomsday Heist is my favorite update. It has great music, it's very cinematic, it has great action, it added more mk2 weapons, it added amazing vehicles, and it's about the only thing left in Online that can present a challenge to me.
It also has the biggest and most impactful story in gta online.
i hope act4-6(cuz 3 is too easy)
my fav will always be the casino Heist it was truly the dawn of a new great age of Gta 5 you got to rob a huge casino we got all these cool guns cars ect i just loved that update AND IT WAS THE FRIST HEIST IN ONLINE TO LET US PICK A APPROCH not like the boring og heists i loved in story mode how you could pick and when they brought it to online it made me hella happy
@@nikedix3947fear
The main reason behind the filght school was to give people a way to get better at flying to help with the OG heists. I don't really know how much it helped with that cause every time I tried to do any set up with a plane or heli people would crash all the time! Back then I remember a lot of people not even being able to land planes consistently. It's the main reason why to this day I insist on being the one to fly every chance I get. I GOT PTSD!
And it still happens. Try to join some apartment heists, your PTSD will triple. Now I get bored I join random heists to see people crash and end the heist
And what you said is true, I did go do the Flight School to git gud as you say.
they act so slow when they have to fly i always assume someone will crash somehow some reason
Rip the cayo, I always knew this was coming. And frankly I'm shocked it didn't happen sooner. I guess El Rubio got the last laugh :(
nope, he's just living in constant fear while an uninvited guest is quietly helping themselves to his pink diamond.
Two weeks since you had this video out and no one pointed out something you forgot about Gun Running. That was the update that changed how VIP worked. Instead of needing a million in your bank account, you now only needed $50k to start up an organization. That was the update that "fixed" the VIP mechanic of GTAO. You talked about how it was in the past (which I'm thankful for as tons of people forget), but you forgot to mention when it was changed. Professional, broski, I can't believe you forgot to mention it. I can't believe I forgot to watch this sooner, but that's another story. Even with that error, thanks for the video.
I actually managed to go to a car meet once in a public lobby, it was a nice 15 minutes of seeing everyone’s cars and just being friendly. But just that 15 minutes.
this is one of the best videos on the channel it brought back so many memories
Bikers was the update that brought me back to the game after a long hiatus to GTAO but I completely ignored the Los Santos Summer Special as my dad died a month before
So sorry to hear that, buddy
@@Trane141Kingz Thank you buddy
@@TheOverseer2077hope you are doing better now
In my personal opinion i liked the Executives and other criminals update, just because of the yacht, sometimes, i want to get away from the chaos that is los santos, i'm protected from arial strikes.other than that yea the summer special update was boring i did like the final mission in the thunder storm
Arena wars is underrated, it's just so different from what you expect outta playing gta that not many people go out of their way often to play it.
Franklin & Lamar = actual black people
KDJ & Sessanta = welcome to the pander verse
As shitty as the arena wars mode is, the cars are some of the most fun vehicles to use in free mode; Launching cars across the city, shunt hopping, sumo with friends, etc.
My top 5 best updates:
5- Bikers
4- Import Export
3- Heists
2- Cayo Perico Heist
1- Diamond Casino Heist
Small update honorable mention:
- San Andreas Open Wheel GP
*Aka F1 update :)
I can only imagine how GTA Online will be for GTA 6 whenever it comes out
I guarantee all dlcs will be locked behind a paywall. Free for gta+, $20 to $30 for everyone else. Rockstar CEO said game cost should be tied to hours played. Mark my words, free dlcs end when the new online comes out.
I think Doomsday Heist was the last genuinely great update for GTAO. That's when the game was at it's peak. And since RDR2 was around the corner when it came out, I fully expected that to be the last major update, and everything would be shifted towards GTA6 and RDO. In hindsight that was obviously wishful thinking but considering the current state of GTAO, I wish that was the actual case.
Before anybody mentions Cayo Perico, I will concede and say that was the best money-making update in the game, even moreso than the Casino Heist one. I still think Doomsday Heist tops it but I will agree that Cayo Perico is not that far behind Doomsday Heist.
Idk, I think the last genuinely unique and great dlc was casino heist. They were never the same after that
I would say the last great DLC was the Criminal Enterprises but the last DLC during peak GTA was Doomsday
For me the last great one was Contract (Franklin's DLC). But then afterwards.....
Cayo was the best best money-making update because it was finally a heist that paid out enough to be viable for grinding. The reason everyone did cayo was because business are slow, boring and high risk. Why spend hours grinding the same boring crates, hearing the same annoying NPCs call you, when you could listen to the soothing voice of pavel and raid a island and get a big reward for doing such.
If other businesses and heists where as fun as cayo more people would play them.
The contract is probably objectively the best update in gtao, especially since it didnt introduce anything ridiculous like the orbital cannon
Happy 10th Anniversary GTA Online.
Honestly, my number 1 best DLC ever made for GTA Online was actually The Contract. For me, it was the closest thing to what I imagined to be a perfect GTA Online update!
It is so good actually that I run between the Dr Dre story and businesses as my GTA money method. Especially so since the Cayo guards detecting dead bodies became a thing…
The contract DLC is just such a beautiful update for the following reasons:
- Dr Dre story.
- Freemode activities (Security Contracts and Franklin’s Payphone missions).
- Imani Tech vehicle upgrades.
- Franklin & Lamar co-op missions.
- Nothing ridiculously overpowered or overpriced.
- Missions & activities are well-balanced.
- Something for both solo and co-op players.
- Even the most annoying missions are tolerable compared to the annoying missions in other DLCs.
- Not really set up to milk micro-transaction sales.
Most importantly actually added on Gta v story lore
@@fawazmashdee7605 Yes!!!
The Agency takes the cake for being the most FUN of all the businesses.
Sure it doesn't net you that massive burst of cash that the other businesses do, but you get a good amount just doing Security Contracts and Payphone Hits, and they can be done solo or with friends (if they're willing to help you for very little payout). There's always a sense of progression in completing them as opposed to having to source cargo and supplies first before a big sale later. Security Contracts and Payphone hits pay out the money immediately, and the Dr. Dre heist never has its progress restarted just because you failed a mission. It's a nice, safe and steady source of income with a decently large variety of activities that keep it from getting stale too quickly, AND it comes with a MUCH BETTER OFFICE than the CEO one that provides you with a lot of logistical support (free company car, free helicopter, free snacks Big Garage, Vehicle workshop, fast travel options, discounted weapons/ammo and a loadout locker)
It's a lot of bang for your buck even when playing alone, and the activities all feel like they're in the spirit of GTA.
@@Lazarultos Facts.
The Contract DLC showed rockstar cared for fans of single player
It was sad hearing how they nerfed the Cayo Perico Heist. I enjoyed every moment of it when it came out. I always made sure to set up a new one each time after completing the previous so it was always on hard difficulty for the higher payout. I remember doing the door glitch constantly to get the gold bars while solo. I grinded the hell out of the Cayo Heist. It is the reason why I was able to afford so much stuff. Some businesses I didn't have yet, business upgrades, vehicles etc.
Yea, hard difficulty will now get you what the payout was for normal difficulty before
I love After Hours the most for me very personally
The nightclub fits so much with own character who's originally a musician and probably the reason I expanded her character into an enterprising criminal. I loved roleplaying her masking as a night club owner who secretly has system of accruing contrabands and valuables.
I love the Terrobyte and the fact Paige made it, is actually quite interesting. I loved the 3 different nightclub delivery vehicles.
It's really sad though on one hand, I find the Oppressor Mk 2, on its own, a very aesthetically pleasing and useful but fun vehicle, but I agree with the consensus that it just doesn't fit the GTA genre and timeline, and its abuse by griefers.
Also the nightclub just makes sense. Way more then an office making millions for no reason
I always love that aspect of engaging in criminal activities that make sense with your personal character and the story you gave them. Rather than earning to try and obtain every single criminal business on a character, I use my 2 character slots to own different businesses that the other doesn't have, with backgrounds that line up with their work:
1st character is formerly from a Mexican gang/cartel family with a lot of inherited connections and contacts that worked a lot with smuggling and contraband sale so they run a CEO office and the Weapon Bunker. 2nd Character is a college chemistry major drop-out turned grease-monkey vandal and arsonist so he runs an Auto Shop and Motorcycle Club while working in Acid production with the Fooliganz to both earn legit money while still having opportunities to instigate the chaos he revels in.
Off topic but pro pulled out the old intro when he use too sit in the CEO office which reminds me of his old money guides.
Loved the video Pro. Keep up the great work!
As someone who came in only at the Alien War, this is incredibly fascinating to watch. A lot has happened before and a lot has happened after. I’m curious for what’s next.
Not finished yet, but I’m baffled vip/ceo are only in average, I think vip/ceo cargo are the some of the biggest/ most important updates
The tuners DLC got me back into the game in the first place, so it has to be in my top 3. Cayo Perico dlc, easily because I was able to afford all the cars from the tuners DLC. I actually enjoyed the drug wars dlc, especially getting the acid lab up and running.
I thought the drug wars dlc was really fun and the cars are cool! It gets too much hate
@@geeksimmer2488 People don't even know why they hate it, if I'm being honest. It's easily one of the better passive income businesses in the game.
@mkane789 the awful cringey characters
@@geeksimmer2488that update has a boring story with annoying characters yelling “BADONKADONK” over and over. Missions are literally recycled from single player. Drug wars is definitely one of the worst updates
@@Juicy_wiwihope you know how cringe GTA VI will be
one thing they have never done in online really is the epsilon program. yes you have formage when you first get killed in online appear but no content with missions etc, they did have michael in story mode but nothing in online. maybe nothing good would work there, but seems like it might have some possibilities
Yeah, tuners update (with KDJ & Sessanta) is what got me to play with my game sound off. Only turn it on when playing any mode where I have to hear lock-on sound. Never going back
Being able to sell in private lobbies was got me back into playing gta online
couple that with the hangar business improvements and you've got yourself a really good way to kill time and make a metric f*ck-ton of money in the process.
@@chriscarpenter3370 I just got a hangar and then stopped playing months ago
Great video as always, professional!
Jus FYI, the los santos special was supposed to be the cops n' crooks update, but because of the murder of george floyd Rockstar thought it would be a bad idea to release a police themed uptade
Hey professional how are you doing, happy belated 10th bday to GTA online 🥳. You put a lot of dedication to your videos and I admire that so much! I was talking to GhillieMaster in one of his GTA online streams yesterday celebrating the 10th anniversary of online like you and I told him that "The Professional hasn't uploaded his video about the 10th anniversary of GTA online maybe he's taking time to pay a great homage to it" and then he replied saying "maybe he's not gonna make one" and then I said to him that " The professional said he's gonna make a special video about GTA 5". You're like the rockstar of GTA content creators pro you put a lot of thought and dedication in your videos and it shows clearly. This ain't a dig at other content creators but you like to do stuff differently from other content creators and you seem more thoughtful about the content u put out which I'm a fan of! 👏🏾👏🏾
My opinion of the content and short reasons as to why
My best updates are:
Cayo Perico (big money and map expansion)
After Hours (passive pay from both areas)
The Contract (love letter to GTA V story fans)
LS Tuners (cool cars and cool min heists)
My Great updates are:
Heists (OG fun times)
Diamond Heist (Cool approaches)
Doomsday Heists (Cool story and good pay)
Import/Export (Cool concept and ok pay)
My Average updates are:
Bikers (good money)
Criminal Enterprises (I like the IAA agent thing- hoped it was better expanded and more missions)
Diamond Casino Story (Good story and new location)
Gunrunning (cool new ammo)
Everything not mentioned is in the bad updates
I think further adventures in finance and felony should be in average, cause that was the first business that was profitable at the time and allowed us to make money for future updates.
Honestly i dont care about this game anymore but i admidit that if it was not for one of your guides i would have never discovered your channel and the sniper elite series thanks to you
Hey, Profesional, you should do one of these with the single player story missions. It would be interesting where you would rank the missions
I wish Rockstar would make a GTA Online Mafia Updates and maybe like Gravetti or Petrovic or one of the five families of Liberty City and the storyline could be one of the five families want your character to help them to get into Los Santos.
Honestly cartel update would be better than Mafia update because with a cartel update we get clothing items shoes pretty fancy and kind of cartel Street gang like militarized items new helmets new shirts new armored vehicles like the monster they use in rea Life upgrades for older vehicles with guns on top of it mansions new planes helicopters stingers new explosive RPGs the list goes on
The Contract is definitely the peak of GTA Online. It should have been the send-off.
However, it’s great to have Yusuf back with The Chop Shop.
1:06:50 Twice? Thats lucky for you. My plane guy blew up over and over again. I decided to be the plane guy instead but then the people inside the prison kept dying :(
When it happens, I just embrace it and amuse myself watching them fail. I gave up trying to win when it happens
Ive been playing online since i was 15 with no idea how to play or make real money if i ever make it imma have to shout you out you for help you provided through the years
Ngl i'd have to say the Casino Heist & Doomsday heist is the best updates
Endless fun
Sure the Doomsday heist was annoying with the setups
But it has a fun glitch with Act 2 to get money easily
47:24 The thing is Mr. TheProfessional, they are not just a couple. They are a BLACK couple, thats why they are flirting with each other every 5 minutes. Also in 48:26 they just curse a lot because, they black as hell
Yep. Typical scumbags.
KDJ and Sessanta feels like a 14 year old wrote them, while also embodying the stereotype of black people who only talk in ebonics.
Hi professional, love your content
I like doing Doomsday heists as they are a little more challenging but the bugs like ULP or Agent 14 not moving when they should or CEO quitting when they don't quit.
Demolition Derby in Saints Row 2 was what they should have done for Arena Wars
The worst thing about all these DLC's is they broke the game economy from bad to worse. All kind of pay walls to boost sharkcard sales. And the countless bugs that came for free with them. OMG!!!, reloaded this game a zillion times.....😢
I really liked arena wars, when it was on 2x Dollars it was so much fun with many ppl
Appreciate you for this video. Definitely worth watching 👍
Funny how the best DLCs are the ones that have little to nothing to do with the actual multiplayer aspects that are meant to be the focus of GTA Online. As we see GTA Online evolve to further be a single player game, I hope they continue this by continuing to give us quality of life improvements by making everything in the game be done by yourself, including the content that aren’t and are locked off unless you have another player with you doing it with you, such as the Casino story missions as a good example, to every single heist of old.
Vincent deserved to get let go for that haircut alone 💀
I would've placed the San Andreas Merceneries DLC as the worst update by far
The notion that already existing content can just be yanked away without even a shred of justification (like a pissy copyright holder) is *extremely dangerous*
The gaming industry has been allowed to go wild with loot boxes, battle passes and unplayable releases
This is another front that we can't afford to lose
New missions are recycled contact missions. Really no cutscenes at all
Best dlc for me and it still is a top 3 dlc for me and that’s gun running, second place goes to when the ceo buildings came out, third is the biker business
At 10:32 the guy working on the car reminds me of the mechanic you work for in GTA 3
Man I was in High School when GTA 5 was announced, it was the only thing me and every other guy was talking about, then came online, and everyone liked it. But it was heist was announced I remember most, I was in the weight room, and all the guys and I where talking about how awesome the OG heists where going to be. Man I miss those days.
The Diamond Casino Heist and The Contract were my favorite updates. They were the last good updates I’ve ever played.
Exactly now a days it seems boring now. Cayo perico was also a hype update but rockstar killed it
To be honest, I'd rate it this way:
1. Cayo Perico Heist
2. Diamond Casino Heist
3. The Contract
4. Doomsday Heist
5. Heists
6. Bikers
7. Gunrunning
8. Finance and Felony
9. Tuners
these updates are quite nice but with Cayo being nerfed to oblivion, it's just sad. Been playing 400 hours since the Epic free game scenario. Don't get me wrong, GTA online is good but the wrongs outweigh the good things, which is so sad. And GTA+ and PS5/XSX exclusive content made it so bad unfortunately 😔
Hotring circuits are some of my favorite content in the game.
My biggest problem with KD and Ses isn’t the cursing or the flirting. It’s that they’re too bossy and take credit when I’m the one putting my neck on the line
The flirting is so painfully cringe and forced
51:23 they are much more annoying than Devin, really. İ kinda liked him as an antagonist, he is funny at least
Man. This game came out when i had just started my last year of HS. Of all the games i wish i played more of since graduation, this would definitely be in the top 3.
Every gta online player had a fortunate son moment when he mentioned oppresser mk 2
I had completely forgot about the summer special until you just mentioned it
I knew he was going to one day upload this video, every time when he got asked on what his favorite DLC is/was on livestreams
I personally use the Oppressor Mk II in GTA online as my work truck.
it's funny when professorial being throwing them roasts
My top3 DLCs:
3: Beach Bum DLC. The best things in life are free.
2. Content Creator. When R* lets you down, the creator community doesn't. Endless hours of high quality content that keeps the game fresh and alive.
1. Heists. The DLC that saved GTA Online and was the sign of great things to come. RDR2 Online desperately needed a DLC like this.
The Contract should have been the last dlc that Rockstar should add to the GTA Online, and then released GTA VI with new multiplayer mode next year.
4:44 me: (who mains SNS pistol)
👁️👄👁️
Thank god for the private selling opportunity. Early today I just finished selling my weapons for 1million
Did anyone noticed after dlc the guys in warehouse not talking anymore? Pavel isnt talking to you when u get on the bridge as usual or say goodbye when you leave😂 what pisses me off isnt the dlc crap thats already normal i have no expectations but they always mess up something else when releasing a dlc .
This video will forever be a classic
26:20 the moment i hear hey jefe wait to see if its the auto shop one if it aint im joining a different lobby😂‼️
The only thing I ever use Arena War for anymore is colored headlights... that's literally all it's really good for...
I’ve never seen his office so clean, it’s always full of money😭😭
The bounty were funny John wick style awesome vid
you forgot to mention why san andreas mercenaries was the worst which is the removal of so many vehicles to try and sell gta plus
This was exactly the video I needed ur locked in to GTA V for sure.
I like the yacht missions. I just love being on or around the water!
And you can all do solo.
What’s not to like?
Agency Was great because I don’t have to play it anymore
I made my 200 contracts and that’s the end of it for me,
13 mil and it’s all paid off, did the Dre contract 1 time and 20k a day is much better than having to restock or Swap DJ’s imo
I dont mind K and Sessanta individually but when theyre together theyre so annoying lmao
I found honestly say this is another variable reason why I have a love hate relationship ship with rockstar. DLCs here are like a roller coaster but killing Johnny Klebitz and enabling griefers is what solidified my frustrations with them
I feel the Doomsday heist wouldve been A tier if it hadn't added the orbital cannon, one of the most game breaking features of GTAO that R* took an absurd amount of time fixing. One of the dumbest gamr mechanics I've seen outside of MW2's building 21 playlist being weekends only.
Putting Tuners anywhere other than worst is crazy
Arena war, brilliant idea, horrible execution. A demo derby mode with overprices vehicles, crappy pay, and in a game where car combat is pretty terrible. Guns feel almost useless, collision damage is almost non existent . the only weapons that feel satisfying to use are the ones that kill instantly. Otherwise you just feel like your shooting bbs at them.
“if lucia & jason are like this in gta 6 i’m deleting it” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
As a day one player 2013 was some of the most fun in gta online because every Deathmatch and race was always full and i played those endlessly without being burned out lmao i know not everyone would feel the same but i know for damn sure other people would play all day like me and completely ignore the contact missions 😂 also back then the buzzard was my go 2 vehicle and still is in 2024 some things never change
