Heist failure stories

[Turkish Turketarian]

Wait till you get to the Vans - Pacific Standard Heist.

Every moron thinks they drive!!! Can people read? It is sad how bad most players are.

Lol had this happen yesterday. I was a driver and neither of the navigators got in my car. Both took off on their own while I just sat there the entire time.

 

With the white and black vans in another mission, I was white van driver and some guy on the mic reads his directions out loud "get in... black... van" He gets in the white van with me. People in the black van take off "Mission Failed"

I once had this sad sack of sh*t pull me out of the Kuruma during the Fleeca Bank set up mission. Apparently he had telepathically claimed shotgun, but I wasn't playing ball with the car snatcher so I just left the lobby.

 

A f*ck-up on my behalf was during the Hydra mission, I had never flown a Lazer before and thought I had to land to. So I put the gears down come up to the runway and start slowing down, then holy sh*t it's wobbling everywhere and nose-dives into the pavement.

Speaking of the Hydra mission, want to know what happens at the very end? I lag out.

[WhiteFishyStick]

Number one stupidity award goes to my mate, the miserable sod... Prison heist, my mate walked in the plane's propeller in Sandy airfield during pickup, costing us that 1 extra life, no biggie... then later, on the beach, walked into helicopter's back blades, failing the mission. My other mate, understandably, rage quits.

 

2. Decided to play all day today, starting with the idea of finishing Humane Labs heist with my mate. After 7 hours still no luck. After about 3 hours my mate rage quit, I being the resistant one, kept on trying. 90% reason for failure is due to randoms leaving lobbies, the mission itself, or after the first try fails and / or death.

1 somehow dies ON THE WAY to the helicopter from the city and leaves. Yes, he actually died somewhere in Sandy Shores while the rest of us were waiting for him in the helicopter (he was the pilot). Game over.

Other (gunman) gets in the back behind a machine gun instead of the cannon sit (you know that extremely effective gun that will increase mission success 100%?), the pilot fails to get the heli high enough to trigger the next step, instead triggering alarm and failing the mission. And so on and so forth...

[Mourticae]

Place the EMP in the Humane Labs Garage,

 

Two people are perched in positions to engage the scientists with marksman rifles, each assigned to fire at their designated targets on the count of three. Once they reach three, the capable sniper whispers 'target down', while our not so experienced secondary sniper starts spewing profanity as several successive shots are heard. Down comes the 'mission failed' message....

 

EDIT: a quick tip to bypass this - if you've downed the balcony guard just near the two scientists lingering in front of the monkey cage, you can down them with two quickly placed bursts from a suppressed assault rifle.

Hard difficulty, free aim. 7th try. I just landed on the beach with the parachute and this happens :

You think it's just yourself that's cursed with inbeciles and then you read this thread haha. Brilliant

 

I managed to fail getting the Karuma when my level 10 random accomplice decided to steal a car rather than jumping into my Turismo, shooting f*ck out of every c*nt ignoring my horn and eventually leading to her dying.

My cousin made us fail the last heist because he didn't know how to open his parachute.

 

Time ran out because I didn't get enough air when I jump off the bike so I landed on the mountain. I make it down near the water, by dying, and was yelling to pick me up but the guy driving the boat didn't budge.

 

So close, but yet so far.

[8up local]

so far only playing with randoms all has been good actually, only real problem and fails have been the connection issues.

[GunTotinHippie]

that pacific standard is something serious. Made it all they way to top of the mountain jumped off and pulled my chute to late....

[LukeyDukey1988]

The prison heist, one of the randoms opened their parachute way to late when regrouping on the beach safe to say he went splat! so annoying!

[DarkSavageDeathlyCloud]

the last heist.

the story: we died a lot.

 

end

[Choppers]

It happened again.

Here's my stories, in their entirety and unabridged:

 

Joined Heist. Toolbag host lingered for 15 minutes in "unready" state. Quit.

 

Joined Heist. Toolbag player blew up my car and then ran me over. Heist failed.

Joined Heist. Toolbag runs in guns-a-blazin'and dies. Heist failed.

 

TL;DR: Toolbags have ruined 97.164% of all Heists I've joined.

[El Zodape]

Humane labs raid with randoms:

 

First try- Me and El Doucho are ground team. We open the door with a sticky bomb. 5 seconds inside. LITERALLY 5 seconds inside the place, Doucho gets rekt. Fail.

 

Second try- This time we get past the very first part of the level. Then I turn around a corner and I get insta gibbed. Like, I had 100 health and I went to 0 in half a second. Fail.

 

Third try- We go inside again. I work my way to the office where we gotta put the keycards, only to find out Doucho was afk... in the very first room. Went aaaaaaaall the way back. Stood there for 2 minutes when Doucho finally reacted. Then we go aaaaaall the way back to the end. At this point I couldn't believe the chopper team was still alive. We do the thing, get out, call the chopper. The next thing i see is the chopper going head on into the water. I thought the pilot was pretty skilled until this sh*t happened. So yeah, fail.

[AGNT009]

Was JUST on my second Heist mission with randoms. Told the guys Id be a pilot for the Humane Labs finale. Asked what I needed to do, and we set off. Im a GREAT pilot in anything. I was holding my Valkyrie nice and smooth, my gunner was dropping choppers and security left and right. Gunner kept thanking me for being such a great pilot and holding a steady bird. Flares go up, and I bring the Valkyrie over to their shoreline. Carefully land on the beach, touchdown...................didnt realize the tailrotor was dipped in the ocean..........POOF tail rotor goes up in smoke, HEIST FAILED with a dead Valkyrie....NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

I was so embarrassed. We did the mission again. Easy success. But to find out the mission was basically over and I effed it up not realizing the tailrotor couldnt run in the ocean for the few seconds it took for my guys to jump in was SOO embarrassing.

[Red Lynx 23]

I've come oh so close to beating the last heist. Last one off the jump and parachuting. Landed in the water by the Dinghy when time ran out, and everyone was back to the checkpoint in the city.

[DemonicMoustache]

Prison Breakout-Getting the bus

I lost the cops, waited for my teammate to get in the bus, a train came at me and I didn't notice , I exploded which I rage quitted and laughed. I am sorry to my teammates, please forgive me.

[ice_phoenix_66]

So - just got done trying to do the Pacific Bank finale. After quite a few attempts at making our way to Raton Canyon, my team finally got to the jump with most of the take intact. I reached it first and parachuted down to the dinghy smoothly, waited a little while and saw that the host and 1 other guy had nearly landed too - only to see the last teammate somehow manage to smash himself into a tree and boom - heist failed. I've seen some pretty bad f*ck ups on all the heists but that was definitely the one that pissed me off the most. We were so f*cking close.

Lol mine is worse, my f*cking cousin didn't know how to open the parachute and he died. He ask me when he was in the air. It's funny because he was more pissed than me and it was my heist.

[Panicsferd]

I had a failure that happened to me on the setup mission where you are getting the key codes for the human heist, and as the scene was loading with me placing the key cards on the table somehow it failed instead of completing and said "a crew member has died".

 

I also had some similar things to other people where on Prison Break, the buzzard shot the police helicopter and its wreckage landed on the velum and it was destroyed.

[Maverickfoxx]

just today in prison break i had two failures of interesting proportions. i was the pilot and this was in the same crew on the first and second attempt consecutivly. the first attempt was going swimmingly, untill the demo hit a jet. i figure it was going down anyway so i neednt worry about it, and since it was innitially climbing i figured i'd pass by going under it. as i was almost under it the demo hit it with a second missle and it dropped right out of the sky and hit the plane. the second attempt went just as smoothly, got out of the prison, lost the cops, jumped out of the plane and were parachuting down. a teammate dies hitting rocks while gliding. on hard mode with no extra lives. the stupid prison heist is the hardest one for the dumbest reason. all the others have decent checkpoints, but in the prison one if you fail at any time, its back to the very beginning. even if you die while parachuting ,and the heist is all but complete.

I joined a Randoms Heist Setup for the Pacific Standard. A friend of mine also joined. We had to steel the Bikes, we get there, take the bikes (Also the Bikers seem to be stronger to damage too) we managed to get them to the drop off when I noticed it wasn't saying we finished. That's when I saw my buddy drive up.....on the wrong bike.

[Shadowfennekin]

I finally got a crew that got past the Biker part of Series A. Right at the very end, as I was about to deliver a van you want to know what a little sh*t did? He LEFT. f*ck him.

 

Now I have to wait another 48 hours to get another crew who gets passed that point -_-

[Mr_Goldcard]

A 12 year old kid was demolition on prison heist. He thought the plane was an enemy so he blew it up

[jobnocky71]

 

Pacific Standard Finale:

 

Random joins

 

Everything smooth as anything!

 

Parachuting to boat with 1.21 MIL

 

Suddenly, random's mom starts to yell at him. So he's standing in game on the bank feet before the boat and EVERYONE is screaming at him to get in and finish. He sits there 3 MINUTES saying sorry and not listening to what we are saying and pleading all the while he's talking to his mom.

 

Leaves.

 

 

I will never forget that.

Ouch

 

I managed to grind my way through all the heists as team leader with packs of idiot randoms, probably raised my blood pressure a few points.

 

Some of my favorites:

Pilot cant find the yellow ring in prison break finale, trys to land in the water, several times.

The gunner jumps out of the helicopter during the humane labs raid, does this several times before i get sick of it and rm, love that long ass drive.

Hackers taking more than 30 seconds in any of the hacks. I mean really? That sh*ts soooo basic.

Pacific standard finale, crowd control thinks control means murder, demolitionist thinks hes above touching the filthy money in the vault. When we're leaving the bank I armor up and stuff my face, equip my combatMG, edge up to the door, look back my team is at the ready, I combat roll out the door and starting clearing a path thinking my team has my back, guess they got cold feet, all 3 stayed in the bank... for several minutesI still dont know why. Trying to get away on the piece of sh*t bikes, they all die 5657372829 times, seeing my profits cut in half i decide to rm and say f*ck these fools. I leave and lester calls me saying ive completed all the heists. So yeah im out of the startup, payout and bonuses for beating all the heists in order, first time, and w/e else there is. Lester better cross the streets when he sees me coming until he pays what he owes.

 

Ive retired from heist leader and now join random heist finales to try to snake the payouts. Sometimes ill join setups if someone needs a hand or I like the mission.

 

Despite all the fails and annoyances heists are pretty damn fun. Id like to find a solid crew and redo them getting some of the harder achievements.

 

what platform? I'm reliable but could do with a bit of guidance

Prison break 4 players to go to airfield to get velum.

 

WHY 'O' F**KING WHY does everyone once leaving apartment feel the need to jump into their gay zentorno and tear off (alone) just to ensure they arrive first, and start gunfight with vago's so by the time everyone else arrives all hell as broke loose and makes it difficult for others?

For f**k sake, for me and everyone else's sanity, why not try and arrive in TOGETHER and position yourselves in order to take out enemies TOGETHER.

It's not too difficult to use logic, I guess if you keep failing over and over again then you obviously are not meant to be playing with other players and maybe should stick to SP.

 

OK rant over.

 

Back to more de-moralising, soul destroying mission failure due to peoples lack of common sense and selfishness.

[God-eater]

Humane Labs Raid - I was the pilot, coming in to pick up the ground crew. Landed too far down on the beach, wave came up, submerged the tail rotor and killed the chopper.

[Nah nah nah Gta 6]

When I got out the bank I shot the Cameras, only for Catalina to shoot me.
