The briefing
Title Update 1.03 addressed early GTA Online character deletion and progress-loss problems on October 9, 2013. It also targeted endless loading, stalled sky cameras and missing interface options between jobs.
The patch corrected issues involving the Sanchez modification process, tutorial visits to Los Santos Customs, weapons and ammunition, and Last Team Standing lobbies. The notice still identified a remaining vehicle-purchase saving problem that required a later fix.
That remaining limitation is important to the release history: this patch was not presented as the final resolution of every launch-era cloud issue. Its temporary-character clarification and session corrections belonged to the continuing effort to stabilize the original PS3 and Xbox 360 Online release.
