Capture are the newest addition to the collection of team-based mission modes in GTAO, with Jobs spread across unique modes, this GTA twist on classic capture the flag style confrontations brings a whole new level of adversarial action to the world of Los Santos and Blaine County.
Strategy plays a huge role as you run decoys, set traps and place obstacles to ensure your enemies don’t get close to your goods. These new Jobs are accessible in Freemode and spread across the four different modes described below according to the official Rockstar GTAO News Announcement:
CONTEND Mode
In Contend, there's only one package, situated in the middle of the map. Teams must fight to bring this package back to their respective bases, and once the package is captured it re-spawns in the middle of the map and is up for grabs again.
Salty Snatch
Dog walkers and surfing talent agents look out - two Import operations at either end of Chumash Beach are fighting over a shipment that's landed on the pier. Any product they can get to their spot in the sand is theirs to keep.
GTA Mode
As the ubiquitous acronym might suggest, GTA mode tasks players with stealing target Vehicles located all around the map, before bringing them back to their respective bases. Each team must fight to steal more vehicles in the allotted time than their opponents.
My Maibatsu
Four East Los car thief outfits compete to get hold of a shipment of Sanchez dirt bikes, and store them back at their bases, while preventing the other teams from doing the same. First place to look would be the Maibatsu Factory.
Field of Screams
A tractor shortage in Grapeseed leads to farmyard chaos. It's harvest time, and two rival gangs compete to bring a Fieldmaster tractor back to their bases. Farming is a deadly serious business in Blaine County.
HOLD Mode
When playing Hold, teams must collect and store as many packages as possible in their base. Packages can either be found on the map, or stolen from the opposing team bases. Reach the target score, or hold the most packages when the time runs out, to win.
Block Party
Gang violence escalates in Chamberlain Hills, as block fights block at close quarters. Four factions with two packages each try to raid each other and protect their own stuff. If they get an opponents product back to their turf, they'll have to protect it.
RAID Mode
In Raid, you'll have to fight your way into your opponents' base and steal a package, then deliver it back to your base to score points. Reach the target score, or deliver more packages than your opponents do in the allotted time to win the match.
Beachin'
Four factions raid each others stashes for control of the area “tourist trade.” Nudge-udge, wink-wink. Take the product back to your spot and it is yours!
Wargames
Like any military operation, when things kick off at Fort Zancudo Air Base, they escalate pretty quickly. Teams stockpiling Weapons to sell on the black market raid each others bases at either end of the facility. If they get the goods back, they're banked. Nothing is off limits to be used here, including the fighter jets.
