I do enjoy survival now and then...but in the end the concept stays the same always

Unless it woud be one that has 20 rounds, spawns tanks after a certain round, have the enemy trow molotovs, spawn jets...i honestly woudnt care much

That being said it woud be fun to have a survival in wich you can just use the complete map, personal vehicles and pegasus vehicles and you can go as high as round 100 while the enemy in the highest rounds chases you in tanks, dubsta 6x6,grangers,sultans, infernus,bisons, fighter jets, swift,buzzards,cargobobs,...and tries to kill you with rpg's, grenade launchers,miniguns and heavy snipers :O

ye only thing you would never survive that with AI accuracy

bring it , endless enemies with time limit ( 30 min ) & 4 man army ( the team will be surrounded by 4 wreckage bus , which serve as " pilbox " ) and inside the pilbox , is refilling ammunations , heavy weapons ammunations , thrown weapons , soda machine & cupboard full of body armors ( this however , takes time to refill/regenerate ) . no helicopters but endless enemy until 30 minute . i'm bored with wave based survival than endless but time limit survival

Survival is my favourite game type. It can be done alone or with friends and can sometimes actually be challenging. We need more that involve more vehicle useage as well as no round cap. Basically you make more money based off how many rounds you last, rather than a soild paycheck at the end of 10 rounds.

Yet a comunicating team of 4 holding up at the bank in the city or at one of the other enterable buildings... or at some other place fighter jets cant hit you and tanks get blocked

Also the 100 round limit...it shoudnt be reachable by any solo noob/player that knows how to take cover and shoot

If they increase the wave 10 price from 30,000 to at least 50,000.

 

And tanks? Maybe if our online characters got some of that armor from SP, because if they're like the tanks from Fort Zancudo, then no.

To all you saying its not worth the time, fair enough. I was doing survivals back when the pay was 20k, I didn't care for the money... they're fun!

 

I'd like to see more survivals in the future for sure, and they must be one of the easiest game modes for R* to implement. I really don't see why they haven't added more of them in all seriousness. A grand total of 9 survivals is kind of a joke if you ask me.

Yes i would. And vehicle access would be awesome. I played legion square with vehicles enabled, idk if it was always like that and then a patch ended it, but I have only seen it once. Maybe a glitch. It was so fun with all four of us circling legion square in an suv and parking in the underway for helicopters.

the vehicles are not enabled. they sometimes stay there if they are parked during the lobby and you can steal them but you cant steal the NPCs vehicles from within the survivals

 

 

i would like to see at least 15 survivals instead of DMs, LTSs etc. i play them a lot but they do get a bit samey

Survivals were great when they were $20K , now you can't get anyone to play anything but Boneyard & Industrial.

 

If R* added more they'd probably end up like the Sawmill (my favorite)

Well in all honesty I don't really have trouble finding other Survivals than the ones you mentioned, except for the all elusive Sawmill. That one is rarer than finding a joint in a pack'o Lucky Strikes lol.

 

Maybe I'm just lucky. Now I wanna go online and do Sawmill.

I don't really enjoy survivals anymore. The pinpoint accuracy from enemies gets too annoying for me. ESPECIALLY when five of them spawn right as I turn my back. Not to mention, it usually takes about 30 minutes to do, payout is 30k and you use up about 10k worth of ammo. Hack and dash takes under ten minutes and I make about 16-18k so I don't really see a point. Just my opinion though, I know plenty of people enjoy survivals.

10k of ammo? Now I know you're lying. Unlessyou only use eexplosive weaponry its 3k max.

Yes I would. R* could spice them up a bit too. Maybe increase the waves to 15-20. Also the NPC spawns shouldn't be so predictable. As someone stated, it would cool to see some of those Alien\Clown survivals from story mode added in too.

I loved survivals when the game first came out and relied heavily on them when R* completely nuked race payouts. But the payout is pretty low for 20+ minutes of spazzing ammo away. It'd be more tempting if they bumped the final payout to 40k or something.

I would like one on a beach or island, with enemies approaching on boats and from the air.

 

I would also like one where you have a tank and are attacked by enemies with RPG's, jets and tanks.

You ever try to fight an AI jet from the ground?

 

Hint: you can't. They spam missiles like crazy. If you're in a car they'll hunt you down. If you're on foot you'll be dead before you know what happened.

Yes please with even larger teams, and greater waves, aka at wave ten there is a option too continue or flee. The military base / airport would be great for this.

It never really came back. It's all Rambo's and guys going AFK,

 

I've seen level 100+ guys that don't know where the shooting lanes are in Boneyard!

Survival just isn't worth it considering the payout after all that work.. Takes like 20-30 minutes and you get $30k minus all the ammo you used up in that time. I won first place in a race the other night and got $20k within 5 minutes. It'd be more fun if you had to travel to a different location after completing a wave, or maybe just some variety like with tanks or lazers or against wildlife or zombies/aliens or whatever.The payout definitely needs to be increased, along with a level 10 cap removal with bonuses for every round you pass after.

 

 

Survivals were never about the money or RP, they just fun, I am addicted to survivals and just can't get enough, my favourites are Maze Bank, Legion Square and Sawmill Plant, I don't mind Boneyard now and then but I never hide in the usual place behind the container, so boring.

 

I wouldn't mind more money, but that's unlikely. I still play them because I like them and gives me a break from missions. I also enjoy playing with low levels to help them out.

 

If you want money/rp, do Blow Up, Trash Talk etc and the many missions that pay well. Blow up is by far the easiest money farming mission, every 4-5 min you make $9k, so you can double your money compared to a survival. If you wait 15 min, you can make $18K and 3K RP for about 2 mins of work, they simplest laziest mission you can get.

Hes not lying, as stated previously multiple times its about having fun. 1 RPG or grenade per vehicle and minigun for the choppers will get you to 10k worth of ammo no problem. 10K is probably about my average... granted I usually have most of the kills lol.

Are you on ps4? I'd like you to show me how you do Leigion Square. I'm having trouble with that one.

I'd welcome more Survivals (different locales).

 

I'd also welcome varying enemies, like those that could/would rappel from incoming choppers or parachute from a cargobob flying over.

 

The Fort Zancudo Survival suggestion sounds interesting. I could see tanks in that, plus a multitude of soldiers arriving in Barracks military trucks, and maybe, reiforcements rapelling from helicopters/Cargobobs. It would be kind of neat to be able to jack a tank (or even a LAZER) and wipe out enemies (or targets) in that proposed Survival.

 

Survivals can be the most fun when played with those that know them well. They can also be kind of the worst when played with those that have absolutely no idea what to do or what they are doing.

 

For an added challenge, it would be interesting to have your weapon inventory inaccessible to you, requiring you to pick up any and all weapons that you use for the Survival, and have each wave increase in difficulty and variety of enemies, while opening up access to different, more powerful weaponry.

Unfortunately I am not, I am on Xbox :)

 

 

Legion Square is interesting, you need a good few people. On next gen they have made it a little easier, they modified the underground pathway to put better walls to hind behind. If you have a 2-3 good players, 2 people protect each side of the entrance, while one randomly helps each side in the upper levels. Basically impossible doing it solo, but I have heard it has been done. Even on last gen, if you lucky to get some random cars, you can drive them into the underground and defend the area. You also get lucky because the police vans show up and you can hide behind them.

 

On last gen, still possible if you got a decent player, 2 of us completed it, each take a side of the square, I typically hide by the food trailer, in it or behind it. If one of you gets killed at the beginning of a level, you chances of surviving are much lower, if you have 4 good players, shouldn't be a issue. You can hide in the food trailer when the buzzards show up and try take them out one at a time.

 

This is the hardest survival to survive, if you got poor players, you may as well forget it.

 

In terms of ammo, you don't go crazy with sticky bombs, mini guns etc, conserve them. Use your carbine, and your ammo costs should be in the 2-3k range typically, all depends how you want to play, if you want to have fun, your ammo costs go up which is ok, but if you trying to make money, you can keep your ammo costs down. I rarely use sticky bombs and I only typically use my hand grenade launcher in boneyard and railyard when the cars show up and the mini gun when the buzzards show up and then you run around and collect ammo if you really trying to save money.

Thanks for all that info rapid!

I have passed it before with friends, I really wanted to know if it could be done alone. Every time I've finished it with friends we've always ended up underground for the last wave. I've been trying with randoms to no success however haha.

 

I've tried going in one of those food trailers before, while its a ok spot I think it doesn't leave you with any options when it starts getting hairy. I usually just end up staying in the middle (under cover from buzzards) and face the side with most AI lol.

 

As far as ammo goes, saving it is the last thing on my mind, keep it all maxed out which means I cannot pick any up. Meh, making money legit in this game is easy enough, I must have enough for the next 2 updates.

 

Thanks for taking your time to reply bro!

Teamwork between randoms had never existed, even before the billionaire days. Problem is, all missions can be done solo plus most players have to be the one that does everything.

I like survivals. On NG the enemies are more smart. What I miss is a zombie apocalypse survival.

 

Legion square and Maze bank cost more ammo than you gain in ammo. i use the other survivals to stock up ammo. You just don't spray rockets, stickies and minigun ammo.

I would love to play more Survival missions if they added certain rules that had to be followed... Like specific weapon sets, vehicles, and random mutators, imagine having to fight off wave after wave with only grenades. There is a ton of potential with the mode.

Adding survivals should be simple, I can think of a dozen places that would be fun, even if they'd be most likely harder. Also an endless option where pay maxes out, but you can go for a high score
