Hey finally a patch, hope it addresses some of the issues I have! Here's a copy/paste:

1. Fixed an issue where players were unable to enter or exit vehicles in GTA Race.
2. Fixed an issue where scripted vehicles were causing games to unexpectedly crash.
3. Improved reliability and frequency of PS3™ online leaderboard updates.
4. Fixed a rare hang some players encountered when moving from a Race or GTA Race lobby into gameplay.
5. Fixed a hang that would occur when players were switching teams during the countdown in the lobby.
6. Fixed an issue where players were able to get ridiculously high scores from Cops 'n Crooks matches.
7. Changed GTA Race and Race so that the last player remaining always receives a reward of $250.
8. Fixed an issue where spectating players would prevent the game from finishing.
9. Fixed an issue where players were unable to spectate in Round 2 of Cops 'n Crooks games.
10. Changed countdown timer in lobby so that it no longer resets when new players join a game.
11. Changed the kick option so that kicked players are no longer brought back to single player.

7. Changed GTA Race and Race so that the last player remaining always receives a reward of $250.

This is really good! Will stop a lot of quitters, and help those going for the AWP like me Thumbs up

Yeah 7 and 11 are decent upgrades.

Yeah, I was wondering what the patch did, but this is pretty nice Smile

Especially 7 is awesome.

It's a patch none the less. Should improve some gameplay. Still, nothing I was hoping to see resolved. Then again, I know how to fix my problem manually.

People are really starting to hate on the game. I think it is only a matter of time R* releases tanks, jets and a few other things for real cheap or even free on Live and PSN.

that would be awesome... besides, the dlc probably won't be san andreas, just maybe a new island which would give R* the incentive to add new vehicles, safehouses, guns, and airplanes

I don't think it will be a new island, or have anything to do with the money M$ gave them. I am tired of the whining, and I am sure they are as well. They took out a tank and a jet and people act like the game is broken.

Well to be honest I don't think this is correct! Since the patch I have not seen anyone in last place receive $250 in any race!
