This one was my fault. On the way into the Prison, I accidentally pressed the aim trigger and aimed my gun at the front guard as the Prisoner. But it said the Officer alerted the Guard. I couldn't help but laugh since he had no clue what happened.

 

 

This one..... I was doing Plane setup. We killed all the Vagos and left the field. All he had to do was sit still and wait for the Pilot to deliver the plane.,...... yet he somehow commits suicide. I left.

Me and my team attempted the Prison Heist multiple times, but we were plagued with the same glitch, no matter what we did the wanted level would never dissappear. We ended up wasting about 2 hours trying to lose it, but never did. Finally after we left and rejoined in different jobs, we finally completed it!

I'm trying and start to get annoyed to attempt pacific finale with 3 friends

1 is lv 18

1 is lv 23

1 is lv 17

 

They die

No matter what, they just die and keep dying alot

 

A friend DIED when me and other are collecting money on safe, how this f*cking is possible? My god

 

A lot of times they just die few secs after leave bank, when someone doesn't die there on streets, they die when we reach the alley. When nobody dies there, someone will dying on walls jumping or making our way to the bikes.

 

On bikes, they die off road or following the yellow straight line, they die with me when we driving the bike off road on the safiest possible way without any annoying cop car or heli to hit us.

 

I just have done with this, maybe doing with randoms is way more easy than low level people who cant protect his self, auto heal with bullet proof armor or snacks

Maybe a guard shot them in the bank? I got killed once in there because the other Crowd Control member went downstairs instead of doing his job so I had to continuously run between the two areas and keep the bar up, not paying attention to the map. All of a sudden I was getting shot and turned around too late.

Was playing the Humane Labs Raid yesterday, I was the pilot and my cut was 15% while others got 25% and the leader took 35%, kinda a crappy cut but whatever. As I was picking up everybody at the beach one of the players got caught in the blades, heist failed. Then at the end(after a quick restart) as we got to the contact, one of the minigun gunners just shot at her and killed her, failing the heist, again. At that point I've lost faith in the majority of random players intelligence. That makes me question how stupid a player can be by screwing up right at the end. What to expect? Stupid randoms will be stupid, sometimes you get smart randoms, sometimes you don't.

This thread makes me feel better about some of my heist failures.

 

Most frustrating was the Prison Break Finale. As the demolition man my team was waiting for me on the coast having secured the prisoner and jumped out the plane. One however was on the top of the cliff. Instead of waiting for me to pick up the 2 on the beach and then get to him he decided to jump killing himself in the process. Failed. The host at that point was so over it he quit out so we never completed it.

Some people don't even know where to seat in the Valkyrie... If that wasn't enough, ground team kept dying...

^ Humane labs final? I f**ked that setup mission the first time I did it too. Can't remember exact wording but on my screen it told me to infiltrate the Humane labs or something to that effect. I didnt realise initially I had to wait for the chopper to hit the corona and then set off the EMP. I jumped well and truly before I was supposed to and straight away it told me to get back in the Valkyrie. I knew then that I had done f**ked up.

I had been doing the Prison Break heist so many times, but my team was sh*t and we always failed. So I finally match up with some good players and the heist is going really well. We only have to jump out of the plane and get in the buzzard. (this was after trying for over two hours, so you could say I was getting pretty hyped that I was finally going to make it) I jump out, see my team get in the buzzard. "Yes. I'm going to make it!" Next thing you know, I hit the f*cking blades of the buzzard. Dead, heist failed. Turn off Playstation and go to bed.

Last night was horrible. First, I kept getting kicked from lobbies. Not sure why when I'm 147 with a mic. Then I got into a HLR-EMP session. I think one of the players with no mic wanted the Hydra but he never really indicated it until he decided to crash RIGHT AS THE HYDRA WAS ABOUT TO BE DELIVERED. This happened twice and I said screw it.

 

Then I join PS-Finale and the host doesn't want to play on hard. Whatever, he's giving a 4/2/2/2 cut so I'll take it. We get to the bikes no problem. We got kinda split up because most of them didn't know you could skip the checkpoints. At one point a cop car hits me on one of the trails and I got launched into a cliff. Restart, we made it this time. Well, me and the guy on the first bike did. Then once I was in the dinghy, the other player took his bike back to pick up #3 who put his bike in the river. They both get back ok. By this time we've got 550k (sigh) and 3 mins left. Player #4 is about a mile and a half directly north of is trying to navigate the mountain. All the dinghy occupants were low on health and armor and we were all out of snacks so I had to resort to driving the dinghy back and forth down the street to avoid incoming fire and wait out the last guy. Time ran out before he ever made it :(

The final heist, Pacific Standard Job - I kinda wasn't paying attention when parachuting, and my parachute kinda clipped a cliff and I kinda fell to my death..

 

OR, when we all got to the boat and we weren't paying attention to the time, and the guy didn't sit down in the boat as we drove off, so he was just standing on it, (so the objective was still "Wait for the team to get into the boat") when we got to the bridge, we got the flash screen and we thought "Oh, we've finally done it" but in fact, what came up on the screen was..

 

"Mission Failed

Time expired"

;_;

Some prick just decided it would be funny to just drive around the fleeca bank instead of stopping. I had to commit suicide.

Humane pem mission

 

An idiot decided that would be a good idea take a bike to reach the boat. We reached the carrier with 0 lives. Then other idiot stole my hydra on middle air.

As demolition guy I had to destroy the bus. When I did, the mission fails saying I failed to destroy it. WTF?

Well I just failed the Pacific Standard heist 4 times because of another player deciding to be an idiot and first ditch me in the crowd control part - he left the room and was headed down to the vault - forcing me (no mic) to message him to get back to where he was supposed to be, and we somehow made it through that, and then as we go to fight the police outside the idiot decides to run in front of me as I am shooting with the mini gun, making it so I can't shoot and I die as a result. I respawn and as I am trying to catch up I see he has gone and completely ditched the other two leaving them to fight the 40 police officers themselves and run for the bikes to only get himself killed as a result.

 

Second time he does the same exact thing, causing me to again get killed and then he tries to ditch the group again and gets himself killed. Third attempt, same exact story, he ditches us causing me to get killed again, because the other two were trying to deal with the police in front of us, while I was left to fight the police behind us alone and then he again gets killed. So now at this point we are all mad at him, the host is yelling at him to quit ditching us, and I sent him a message warning him that if he were to ditch us again that I will quit because I did not feel like wasting my time on having him screw us all over repeatedly. So what does he do? he sits there in the bank doing nothing and caused us to fail again (the reason for the fail was "crowd control failed"). Then he sends me a message simply saying "lol". We restart and the moron goes and ditches us again, at that point I had enough and quit like I told him I would do.

Prison Break setup where you have to get the schedule from the police station, random level 20 tries to shoot his way in - fail. I explain over the mic that you can literally just walk in. Restart. Tries to shoot his way in again. I wasn't hanging around to see what he'd do the the third time...

Doing the very last Heist - getting to the hill and jumping after we tear across the city with 5 star wanted levels. I deploy the parachute and my teammate behind me does the jump and flings his lectro hitting me back and knocking me off my parachute.

 

Unexpected and maddening fail.

I was trying to do Series A - Trash Trucks with a random group and after failing twice due to combat deaths (which is kind of forgivable on hard) I was getting a bit tired of it. Cue the driver change...

 

L30 decided to drive on the third attempt (the L81 host had been doing it on previous attempts) and managed to run me over three times before we got to the gas station - where he decided to go AFK. I watched the mission timer count down from five minutes to four, then three, got the sh*ts and AP pistol a pump next to us.

 

FFS how hard is it to make sure you've got your controller charged?

after many attempts at the bank heist finale, we all finally make it to the boat. The timer is suspended, all we have to do is calmly motor out to the final checkpoint and payday! Driver runs boat aground, and while another member is searching for a car to push boat back into the river, engines catch fire and BOOM! Mission failed LOL

The other day during deliver emp... For some reason my friend told us to run up the hill so we did and the physics took effect and I fell down the hill and died.

Series A - Weed with a different random crew to the last one I tried.

 

Me and a L10 are on lookout duty and when it comes time to jump in the vehicles, he decides to drive. Driving's not difficult and I rarely get the chance to get on the gun so I wasn't going to argue.

 

First corner he rolls it and drives off without me :rol:

 

I managed to run up the hill to where I'd left my Kuruma and caught up to the convoy again just as they were crossing the first bridge but the Technical is nowhere in sight. We're on the clock so I can't hang around to find out what happened and just used my Kuruma to help the van drivers the best I could. Both Bensons make it to the warehouse more or less intact with about two minutes to spare but the Technical is still up near the Vinewood sign.

 

20 seconds to go and he drove over our heads - and missed the turn off. Timer expires, mission fail.

 

I drove next time.

I managed to reach the boat in the last heist after having my Armored Kuruma exploded from nothing... Then I lost connection with the host...

Pacific Standard Finale - playing with randoms. All decent levels, all with mics. We get to the bikes and I tell them to skip the checkpoints, go right to the boat. Nope 2 of them take the trails. One gets knocked off by the cops into a tree. Second try, same story. Third try, the money handlers grab a cop car for the escape and go up the trail, cool they'll lose less $, I follow them, I end up getting bumped off right before the jump when they go into a spin.

 

Fourth try I completely ignore them all and make a break right for the boat, get there first with no cops in sight, second guy gets halfway through the checkpoints and then takes the low path to the boat, bypassing the jump. Third guy makes the jump and gets to the boat. Last guy hits the jump - commits suicide. I rage quit.
