Another week has passed, and Rockstar has now confirmed that the promised Stimulus Package deposit wouldn’t be making it this week after all. Originally the GTA$ deposit was scheduled for last week, but then was later delayed to this week. Rockstar now says they need another week in order to finalize their next update, which has been deemed necessary to properly deposit the cash into player’s accounts. They have offered up an explanation and extended their gratitude for your continued patience.
Currently, we expect the next title update (1.05) addressing player progress loss issues to be available sometime early next week. Following that, we hope to deliver everyone’s GTA$ Stimulus Package before the end of next week. A big thank you to GTA Online players worldwide for your continued patience and understanding and we will continue to keep you all updated.
When it finally releases, the GTA$ Stimulus Package will consist of two $250,000 deposits into your character's bank account, assuming you played GTA Online in the month of October.
At press time, this news has brought a wave of rioting to Los Santos. Convenience stores are getting robbed left and right, and the murder rate is sky high. Reports of stolen vehicles and even aircraft are rampant. A world in which we can have a nice apartment and a vehicle seems so far off; people just won't relax and play golf or perhaps partake in parachuting. This Stimulus Package can’t come soon enough.
