Cartel in Schedule 1's rival group resolves major issue; live update available

In an exciting turn of events, the much-anticipated Schedule 1 Rival Cartel update is now live, bringing a host of new gameplay elements and additions to the popular game. This update introduces the formidable Benzies Family, a powerful cartel that has taken over Hyland Point.

With this update, players will encounter new challenges such as cartel-player deals, ambushes, dealer robberies, dead drop theft, and a new "cartel influence" mechanic. To reduce the cartel's influence, players now have the ability to use the newly introduced graffiti system, allowing them to tag surfaces around town.

The Schedule 1 Rival Cartel update also includes the release of two new weapons - the Pump Shotgun and Shotgun Shells. For those looking to make a stylish statement, two new hairstyles, Close Buzzcut and Tony, are now available.

In addition to these exciting additions, the update also offers several Quality of Life tweaks and bug fixes, enhancing the overall gaming experience. The 'Urban Artist' and 'Finishing the Job' achievements are now available for players to unlock.

For those who participated in the beta testing, it's worth noting that the developers don't always remove the beta branch when updates are stable enough for the main branch. So, you'll most likely need to swap back to the stable, main build for Schedule 1 if you played the beta.

Moreover, a new vehicle, the Hotbox, is available for purchase at Hyland Auto for $30,000. Spray paint can be found at Gas Mart for those looking to get creative with their graffiti.

Finally, completing the Benzies family quest unlocks Hyland Manor, providing players with even more content to explore and conquer. The Benzies family can initiate cartel deals, ambushes, deal robberies, and dead drop thefts, making them a significant obstacle in the game.

So, grab your Pump Shotgun, hop into your Hotbox, and get ready to take on the Benzies family in this thrilling new update!
