The Worst Of Rockstar Logic

[Raylan Givens]

I’m sure it’s been said before but doing Casino heist preps solo...why do I have to make two trips? Couldn’t I just...stick one bag in the trunk of my car or, ya know, somewhere in my helicopter and then grab the other?

[Ghoffman9]

When doing Cayo Perico heists I always noticed a particular detail. During the mission where you scout the island, the cone of vision for guards is pretty small, especially for those on the towers yet during the heist itself their vision cones are much much bigger.

They rather pile on new buggy or badly implimented features instead of QOL.

Has anyone mentioned the duffle bag after the last update? The duffle bag can carry anything during the Casino Heist, but that same duffle bag suddenly has issues with passing a carry limit in the Cayo Perico Heist lol

I'm guessing they will get their own races soon.

 

I hope so. I would love to race the go-karts. It would be nice if they are allowed to be used in player made races as well.

Rockstar has logic?

We screwed

[Krusty_Tactics]

Like how u see them looking right at you but the dont see you? Or how they be looking the other way and see you?

[Gaffa]

Pavel says "kapitan" - we're all aware of that - but Rockstar decided that the text messages he sends say "captain".

Cant buy the Combat shotgun in ammunition.  You have to find it in the compound during the heist.  OK cool except when you finally find it you cant keep it because you have to buy it at Ammunition.    smh

Using your own weapons to rob El Rubio's island? Bad Idea because El Rubio will eventually trace it back to you.

Using your own weapons to break into and rob El Rubio's properties in Los Santos? Go nuts.

That's because Rockstar expects you to not leave any witnesses

Don't forget leaving your fingerprints all over his villa.

And walking around said villa without a mask because ain't no chance your face gets captured by the cameras in his office and basement...

Why we don't wear gloves I have no idea. This reminds me of the logic in Watch Dogs 2 as well - Marcus covers his face with a mask 'n' all but he doesn't wear gloves. What's the point?

Sloppy work, same thing with the Diamond Casino heist.

Ahh this one gets me... 

You have to find it in the heist... okay I can live with that. 

But then I need to buy the damn thing? Why? We even get to use that Shotgun during the heist but we'll leave that behind when we escape? Doesn't make sense. 

What's worse is the $295,000 bill for it. That should be the price if you did the heist 10 times and you still never found it - or whatever - but it should be a more realistic price (or free) once you legitimately unlock it.

Lamp posts made of wet tissue paper and egg shells. Trees and bushes made of f*cking steel.

This one triggers me... 

If you use the RO-86 Alkonost approach in the Cayo Perico heist, the plane flies at an agonisingly slow 79 mph. 

If you use the Annihilator Stealth approach, the helicopter flies at a 'still-slow-but-faster' 91-92 mph. 

 

Go figure. Rockstar's decision to artificially inflate the amount of time it takes for things is... really poor.

And to top it off, both these aircraft are operating in stealth mode when they fly over... so why are the air defences relevant when the whole point of stealth is to not appear on a bloody radar system?

You hack the black dome cameras placed around the compound to gather intel.  But than when you actually do the heist, those cameras are off apparently, and you only can be seen by the other cameras we can take out.

And than sometimes if you run into one of those tiny street signs with the moc cab, it will come to a complete stop and can flip backwards...

The Stromberg has a sonar sound, but no sonar ability.

One of Pavel's lines when approaching the compound mentions that he's going to keep an eye on you with the cameras, so they must still work - presumably he's blocking out El Rubio's guards from accessing them or something.

Wouldn't that trigger the alarm though?

That makes sense though since you're robbing a Caribbean island. 

[Hazzardtohimself]

I've just figured out why the scope-out / smugger's Velum is so slow. 
Its cargo hold is brimmed with a respray booth, and is operated whilst the craft is airborne! 

 

Or... maybe it's just my 'toon having vision problems, as I could swear that the Velum they stole was white and red, whereas the Velum they land in Cayo Perico is white and yellow. Hmmm... 

 

(late to the party - took me a while to save up for a submarine)

1 stack of weed bricks on Cayo Perico = $147.870

Literally 16 blocks of weed stacked on pallets in my weed farm = $24.000

 

I must be growing schwag then
