The Armored Truck

That amrored truck thing is so annoying at times. I get into position to shoot the door and the driver drives off as I'm about to shoot. Most of the time when I get to the back of the truck somebody in a car pulls up right behind it and when shoot the driving stamps the pedal to the floor and drives into me because they are too dumb to know a steering wheel was invented to turn corners. I get sandwiched up against the bloody thing or I get caught on the hood and the driver drives off and takes me about a quarter of a mile down the road with me riding the hood. Then I have to go all the way back to get the money before the cops kill me. Other times the drivers drive over the money and send the bags all over the road or one of them stop his/her car on the money and I have to move their car. Other times the truck despawns too quickly. I'm stolen a lot of money from it but a lot of the time it can be so annoying.

Just wait for it to start driving, get behind it, throw a sticky bomb onto the back doors, blow it up, jump out and take out the 2 security guys, grab the money, then drive off and lose the cops

I used to use sticky bombs but it's cheaper to use a shotgun. After twenty-five robberies, I need to spend thousands on more sticky bombs. Thanks for the suggestion.

I always like to steal the entire truck. You can blow it up and make more cash. Gotta be quick though. Gun down the rent-a-cop as soon as he opens the door.

Thrown Weapons: Check out #4 and #7 shown on the linked map for sticky bomb spawn locations. They respawn in one minute so it's really easy to max out your supply.

I usually just kill the two guards right away and just drive off with the money.

Has never failed. :)

Just blow up the truck with the grenade launcher. It's only 40 dollars for full ammo, way cheaper than thrown grenades or sticky bombs, and you take out the guards and get the money out in one shot. You don't have to worry about any collateral damage because you will automatically lose any stars more than two that you acquire during the robbing/exploding of the truck, though you can still gain them back afterwards in the chase if you shoot the cops, etc.

 

Use to be a good way to fix your wanted stars attained/evaded stat but it doesn't work in that sense anymore.

I miss robbing armored trucks. It's a shame that the event never spawns for me anymore. Those were supposed to be repeatable! :angry:
