Each week, the living world of Los Santos reshapes itself around new incentives — and this cycle, Rockstar has layered doubled rewards, discounted infrastructure, and a nimble new vehicle into a window of opportunity that closes by mid-March. It is the rhythm of the live-service era: temporary abundance designed to draw players back into familiar missions with renewed purpose. For those who have been waiting for the right moment to invest in aerial operations or expand their garage, that moment has arrived.
