Grand Theft Auto V/Title Update Notes/Update-2014-12-18

Released on December 18, 2014, this Grand Theft Auto V title update added the Festive Surprise DLC content to all available versions, making it the first DLC for the Enhanced Version on Playstation 4 and Xbox One. It included further bugfixes for the enhanced version.

PlayStation 3/Xbox 360=
 * New Features/Updates
 * Players are now able to own a third property, allowing potential ownership of up to 30 cars and 9 bicycles.
 * Deadzone and Acceleration sliders have been added to control Settings.
 * First Person Mode Auto Level Camera on/off setting has been added to Settings.
 * New Content
 * Three new settings added:
 * First Person Aim / Look Deadzone – This reduces right stick deadzone. A lower deadzone allows for the game to register player input sooner and in turn make aiming more responsive for players that require greater precision; the higher the setting, the faster the player is able to look around.
 * First Person Aim / Look Acceleration – This controls how quickly speed is increased until the player reaches maximum turn speed; the lower the setting, the longer it takes for the player’s turn speed to reach maximum.
 * First Person Auto Level Camera on/off setting – This gives the player complete control over where they’re looking at all times. With the option on, if a player is looking down and moving forward then the camera will pan up so that the player can see in front of them. With the option off, then the player would remain looking at the ground when moving forward.
