- Other players, bots and the cars they drive move smoothly now: no more stutter when a network update arrives late
- You hear other players' guns, each with its own sound (their shots were silent before)
- Robberies are shared: when someone robs a store, starts the Jewelry Store or opens the bank vault, it's closed or alarmed for everyone, and the police respond to it
- Blowing open the prison wall opens it for everyone
- Joining a server that's already running shows you what's already been robbed or blown open
- Online games need this version on every computer (older versions can't join)
