New Patch for GTA V Kills Farming Exploits for Online, Missing Characters Still a Problem



The new 1.03 patch for GTA V has been released, and will remove some farming exploits for the game's Online mode, according to VG247. The patch will settle in at 59 MB for the 360, and 39 MB for the PS3.

Specific details on the patch haven't been released, but according to commenters on a Rockstar Newswire post, the update closes off exploits performed through mission repeats.

The studio is also aware of Online characters disappearing from players' slots. They say the issue is connected to the cloud servers going down, and have since warned users from making a new character in its place. The solution?

“If you receive the message ‘The Rockstar Cloud Servers Are Unavailable’, please return to GTAV Story Mode and follow the steps above. Please do not press 'Retry' on the message and do not proceed online with saving disabled, as this may lead to overwriting your existing character. Do not create a new character in the empty slot where your character should be.”

Hoo boy. This reminds me that I should probably update our game at home ASAP. Hasn't been since we got it, and my brother just lost about 6 hours of gameplay last night when he booted up.
