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.

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

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.

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.

I heard job points were for heists but you only collect them in lobbies and when you leave they get reset back to 0.

I wouldn't doubt they are for heists some how. I haven't heard that before do you remember where you saw it?

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.

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.....

Step 1: start a new character

Step 2: pay attention to the text popups

Step 3: find out jp is there for determining a winner for playlists

Step 4:

Step 5: profit.
