Quite a few errors have popped up after the online heists

Rockstar Games has just brought forth a workaround for the face change glitch that seems to be affecting Grand Theft Auto 5 Online characters across PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, or Xbox One, but the game is still suffering from quite a lot of various large and small issues.

GTA 5 received its biggest update ever earlier this week, when the long-awaited online heists were added to the game's multiplayer mode, alongside many other changes and improvements to the whole game.

Quite a few new errors and glitches have popped up

Unfortunately, like with any major patch, the update also caused a bit of harm to the mechanics of the title, instead of just adding new things and elements.

By far the most common relates to the faces of the GTA Online characters made by players across all of the game's current platforms (PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, or Xbox ), as when they log into the multiplayer mode, the facial customization is gone.

A workaround has been presented by Rockstar for this specific glitch on the Support page, and requires players to start the GTA 5 story mode, pause the game, highlight the Online tab, and then pick the "choose character" option to select their affected individual. Once they enter the GTA Online mode, their original character appearance should be restored. If you still have problems, then contacting Rockstar support is your best shot at fixing it.

Many other errors have no solutions just yet

Besides this big glitch, a few other errors are also reported by players inside the game, relating to cars that can barely take damage from collisions or crashes, or to reset control preferences, which is really bad on PS4 and Xbox One, where players can tweak the first-person view.

Some single-player fans also confirm that vehicles they bought in the game have vanished and it's unclear how they can get them back.

As of yet, Rockstar hasn't commented on all the complaints but it's safe to say that a new update is coming soon for GTA 5.
