While Rockstar has always had a contentious relationship with modders, things seemed poised to change when the company acquired FiveM, the mod team bringing GTA RP to life. Now, a full year later, the studio is finally acknowledging a GTA RP event with an in-game promotion.
Rockstar is currently running an ad targeted to Brazilian Twitter users in promotion of a GTA RP event called CPX Fest. "For the opening of CPX Fest on @complexogg, the largest Brazilian GTA RP server," a machine translated version of that ad says, players from Brazil and Portugal will earn GTA$400k for playing GTA Online between 08/19 and 09/01. New players from these countries will receive an additional GTA$400,000 as an incentive."
