Since the high life update will be out on May 13th, any tips to grind

[am30]

@am30, it's actually hard to find a Rooftop Rumble game randomly

 

If only that were true.

Actually this morning all my contact missions I joined were RR and just one titan job mission.

[Kampioen]

There's going to be 5 (if I remember correctly) new contact missions, let's hope there's some that match or exceed RR in terms of profitability and speed.

Mixed up with Coke with a Buzzard can be done solo faster than Coveted and generate more cash per hour, I've done it over 20 times in an hour for $300K+. The RP on MUWC isnt bad either

 

Do you have video proof of this? You'd have to load in the mission, call for the Buzzard, drive there, destroy all 4 trucks, go back to the lobby, and restart the mission, all in less than 3 minutes.

 

I just don't see it being possible. But if you can prove me wrong, by all means.

 

 

Or you could try it yourself, the buzzard is 2 blocks away.. when you get the hang of targeting you'll only fire 4 missiles. Start from invite only will speed up load times

 

I just tried it. I was doing pretty well after a few tries, but nowhere even close to 3 minutes with loading times.

 

I'm calling BS on you.

Here's my tip:

 

Don't grind, just play the game. The high-life items are not limited-time only.

[Jobbo]

 

 

 

To really maximize your profits I would say only do rooftop rumble and make sure to sell a 9k car every 45 mins. Also, I find it easier for me at least to do RTR in intervals of 6, that way you make a little over 100k doing it this way each time and you won't get so burnt out doing it alot

 

$9K car? $12.5k is much better.

 

The chances of finding one, and the time it takes to do so, would be better spent doing RR again.

 

 

You just need to know when and where to look and you've got a good chance. Seeing as I hate Rooftop Rumble with a passion, I much prefer stealing a gang car.

 

I know when and where - but you get Mananas and Buccaneers just as often as Tornados. It really isn't a money-making scheme, holding out for that elusive $12,625 car

[am30]

This.

 

Cannot be emphasised enough. I should hit and pass $17 million shortly and I've yet to grind. The only things I'll be buying are a 2nd property, a Vacca which will get fully modded and the new gun. Doubt I'll drop too far below $15 million. After that, I set my sights on $20 million. Just bide your time and don't waste everything you get and money just happens.

Once I get my 2nd garage I will keep a stock.

For me 16x coveted is most profitable when accounting for load times and cut scenes if you are grinding for a long time. I typically use about 22 clips of carbine and that is all for the full 16x playlist, and it takes under an hour to complete the full 16. While RR is faster from start to finish, the load times and cut scene really add to the total time. On average I could only do 14 or so RR missions in an hour. But try them both and see what works best for you, just make sure you are timing the full laps, not the missions.

 

The way I play coveted without sniping: kill guy at truck at top, hop in truck and drive down and rear end the SUV at bottom right with two guys behind it (this usually knocks them over), hop out kill sniper first, kill other guy standing to the left second. Kill two guys you knocked over at the truck then run over and kill the other two behind the truck on the left. Wait for bob to land, kill anyone that chases you down the hill while waiting. Kill pilot, get in bob. On average, about once out of 16 times the guy with the sniper will tag you with a lucky shot when you hop out and you might die, but no big deal, it only adds around 10 seconds to the time. I find this method to be about 15s faster than sniping a few guys from the hill first, as the bob doesn't start coming until you hit the marker.

 

If you aren't great with the bob, you can snipe a few guys on the other side of the inlet while waiting so you wont get shot too much, but this is not necessary. Lap times should be 3:40 or less.

I find this method to be about 15s faster than sniping a few guys from the hill first, as the bob doesn't start coming until you hit the marker.

I find it easier to quickly pistol the first guy by the SUV, get in, drive on the right-ish side of the hill (avoiding being spotted by the guys by the container and across the water) until you hit the Cargobob spawn trigger. Quickly jump out, snipe the 6 guys that are basically just standing still, get back in the SUV and drive to the bottom of the hill, and wait for the Bob to land.

 

Sometimes during the wait, 2 guys will try to run at you from the top of the hill. You can snipe them if you choose, or just hop in the passenger side of the helicopter as soon as the back wheels touch the ground, and hold down Left Bumper, Right Trigger, and Right on the Stick. You'll knock the pilot over and be facing towards the container for the quick pickup and getaway.

 

I very, very rarely ever die using this method, as the sniper at the bottom of the hill by the SUV's either isn't in range, or isn't spooked enough to shoot you.

[SoggyLuke]

I find it better to play solo when I grind missions. I usually slap a podcast on or go on Soundcloud and listen to peoples mixes. As long as I don't have to put all my focus on the game I don't get bored as quickly.

baller and the fQ something I forget the whole name lol

 

The Baller goes for 9k, the Fathom I'm pretty sure is less.

 

Are you referring to the cars you bring to the docks for Simeon?

Sure, occasionally an Ocelot F620 (I think it's called) will net you over 10k.

 

I thought someone claimed you could sell cars to LSC for more than 9.5k.

[iBUCKEYE]

Glitch.

[grand theft spaghetti]

go back in time to grind rooftop rumble for double points.

otherwise your stuck with rooftop rumble at regular points.

 

i found its faster to work solo in an invite only room and then call in the helicopter pickup before killing all the professionals.

For LSC - F620 is only £8,000. Felons and Baller gets you $9,000. Felon GT gets you $9,500. Gang cars get you between £8 and a bit thousand and $12,5000.

Yeah, that is the way I used to do it, but I find ramboing it more fun, if the sniper gets lucky from time to time, so be it. I usually play with a friend and he does half the PL and I do the other half, he does it your way and swears it is better (it probably is, but I find sniping kind of boring). Getting in the chopper fast is also key to cutting down time, I forgot to mention that so thanks. Either way as long as you hit the marker as fast as possible, the playlist should take less than an hour.

[ZeroSafe]

I'm doing a mixture of Rooftop Rumble, some solo races with my vehicles, and a round or two of Defender.

[doser_]

I wanna make a playlist rooftop rumble, stocks and scares, coveted and then repeat. I could grind those 3 for hours.

[Coin]

 

I love RR cuz I love to get paid.

 

There's more than one high paying mission. You broke types with your constant replays of the same crappy mission have killed this game.

 

 

Ugotsmoked is delaying heists with his RR/Coveted grinding!

[PoopyThomas]

Lots of Gerald Missions

[ezfaun]

Don't y'all have better to do with your lives?

No loss, I won't be playing them.

No.

 

Don't judge us lest you be judged yourself.

[darkwar854]

JESUS CHRIST! Just have fun for gods sake. GTA is a game, games are meant for fun. If you play GTA like a full time job, you must have some issues, because I just can't see the point.

[am30]

What else are we meant to do until Watch Dogs is released?

No. I mean with good intentions. There's gotta be something worthwhile to do instead of playing the game like a zombie just to get some moolah. IDK.. buy a junker rx7 and fix it, give it a polish, hoon about and sell it for a profit? Don't need to do it the way I did but still there must be something that you wanna do. Don't let sh*t get in your way of what you wanna do. Life's too short to give a crap anyway.
