Rockstar has laid out clear guidelines for players hoping to have their creations featured in the new Community Series. The company urges creators to focus on originality and design fast-paced, engaging gameplay. They strictly advise against copying content from other jobs or using any kind of exploits. To maintain a level playing field, Rockstar recommends locking races to a single vehicle. These standards aim to spotlight creativity and ensure competitive fairness. Creators who follow these rules stand a better chance of being highlighted and rewarded in upcoming updates.
