winter_wolf100 Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Hi, I understand that JP stands for Job Points, but what are they and what can they do? I usually get around 15 for most jobs, but i dont know what they are for. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/761997-what-are-jp/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

EKGene Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 You can also see how active a player is in regards to participating in jobs and such in a session, as these players seem to be more receptive to job invites, in case you feel like taking a break from killing in free roam and participating in a race or doing some missions with others.

IamCourtney Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 They help towards voting after jobs for the next mission , race etc , if you have the most job points the vote will swing in your favour Not true. Everybody's vote is weighted the same unless there's a tie in which case the host's vote decides the winner. All JP does is determine the winner of a playlist.

Vangelo Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Jp=just pointless What's the point? Exaclty Well video games are all about getting points and cool stuff I mean that's a huge part of the game anyway. JP is just another thing to be happy about and make it feel like playing the job is worth your time.

jtet37 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 No i dont mean to be rude or anything, just making a funny. Theyre ALMOST pointless haha My theory: jps, the sentinel guy, and heists are related. The sentinel guy is a recruiter/scout, watching the top tier of criminals as they complete missions and accrue jps, then once you reach a certian threshold....whatever a decent amount is 50? 80? 1.5 hours of job time.....then recruiter contacts you, hes seen how much good work you do, and he points you in right direction to get a heist started. You have proven yourself ready for some long hours over a few days, not just a randumb mission here n there for fun. Martin wants one of those jets from the aircraft carrier, hes had his guys watching and he chooses you . Or whatever idn But thats how i wrapped those 3 unknowns together... jps, heists, sentinel guy.....
