The briefing
The December 17, 2013 update record covers Capture Mode - Title Update 1.08. It places the release in GTA V and GTA Online’s ongoing platform and content history.
Competitive jobs define their own team structure, equipment and victory conditions. Objective modes often reward coordination rather than the individual elimination count that decides a standard deathmatch.
Check the variant and player allocation before joining. Rockstar’s featured playlists and rotating jobs can change which version is available, while the archived announcement records its original introduction or promotion.
Named parts of the release include New Jobs / Missions; Capture: Contend; Capture: GTA; Capture: Hold; Capture: Raid.
The reference tables retain the specific additions and values. Maintenance changes describe the build released at that time; later patches can revise behavior or supersede an earlier fix.
