On PC you get non-stop invites to Prison Break finale, people seem to struggle with it. 99% of pc players are under level 30 which has me worried from the get-go. After about 12 failures due to dummy behaviour, I decided to start hosting the heist myself so that when we do pass it, it'll put ME ahead onto the next heist.

Convoy, nobody seems to understand that you need to use the insurgent with the gun and that the gunner will fall out if you roll it. Ive been crushed and left behind so many times.

That's one of the biggest issues I've had with Series A Weed too. There's a couple of really tight turns to get out of the lumbermill so it's easy to flip the Technical and leave the gunner behind.

Currently, all of them. My friends no longer play GTA, i play randoms every heist.

What console are you on? I'm on the PS3 and will host the heists for you to do with people that have experience with all the heists. That way you can unlock any unlocks and also so that you will make money.

Prison Break finale

Humane Labs - Deliver EMP

Series A - Bikers

Pacific Standard finale

 

In a lot of the setups with randoms I play with, everyone likes to rambo the place with their armored Kurumas, so honestly, they're not too difficult. I would say the Fleeca and Series A finales are doable with randoms as well.

Stealth mission Deliver EMP. I am Rambo, I run in guns blazing.

 

Pacific Standard Convoy. I am Rambo, I blast the truck with a minigun, rocket launcher and sticky bombs. Even if the truck survives, I drive off with it without waiting for my team mates. Oops, the Savage flies faster than I can drive.

 

Pacific Standard vans. I am Rambo, I run in guns blazing. Taking cover is for pussies.

The PS finale is hard, I can understand when people die on bikes. Unfortunately, with 4 people, the chance is 4x higher (or is it x4?). Even when I take a car and one or 2 other people are good with bikes, the remaining one(s) always die. Very rarely, after 10 or so retries when we're down to 550k, all 4 people get into one car and finally we can get it finished.

 

What I don't understand why people die after jumping off the cliff. People can't fly, they need a parachute, right? What's so hard to understand? I also hear people keep dying after jumping off the plane in PB finale, I just don't get it. You survive all that crap and now you die at the last minute?

 

Either way, the worst are, by a mile, Deliver EMP and Vans. My favorite missions otherwise, they become a nightmare. I don't accept invites to those and every time I see an invite, I think of the poor person or 2 who are in the setup who know what to do and the 2 or 3 randoms keep driving the insurgent through the gate, or ramming the Post Op van, or driving around it, for a billionth time... It's like a special circle of hell, this.

 

Other lovely setups: Convoy, Insurgents and Weed - whoever gets to drive the car with the machine gun, has to RACE, WEEEEEEE GOTTA BE THE FIRST TO THE CHECKPOINT disregarding the fact they are there to protect the others. Like you have a f*cking armor with a machine gun and I have to get out of the truck I'm driving and shoot down helicopters with my RL? But good for you that you're sitting at the checkpoint blowing up random cars!

All of them. So many idiots, so little time. Doesn't matter what Rank either, especially when all their stats are barely filled. It's amazing how after 2 months, people still try to Rooftop Rumble Rush through these, and end up dying within seconds. Not to mention the numerous trolls that purposely jump from heist mission to heist mission just to mess it up.

 

The whole medal system just makes things worse too. Most, if not all of these missions are pretty easy. All you have to do is have some common sense, follow basic instructions, and be competent in battle.

Delivering that EMP.... Apparently almost no one so far that I've played with understands the concept of stealth. Like how many times can you fail that setup mission before you realize you need to be quiet.

Defo pacific standard... After playing this fanale with randoms, I'm now positive that 90% of you players can't even ride a bike and avoid police without hitting a tree or a fence.

 

I don't even play this mission anymore because im tired of getting to the dingy or very close only for a random to die multiple times.

For me probably deliver emp. But I have had alot of trouble with randoms on Pacific Standard - Signal. I sometimes pray to the gods that the 3 randoms just go AFK at the beginning of the mission and let me do it all by myself. People just cant figure out which way to drive the boat. Some people will try and dock the boat and take NPC cars to the yellow marker, only to not be able to lose the 3 star wanted level. So easy to lose the stars in the water with the boat. Some people will shoot cops right after I lose them. Literally makes my blood boil sometimes. When heists 1st came out I spent nearly 5hours retrying this setup with randoms until finally my friend came online to help me. Also I really really hate doing the long jet ski ride to that stupid Island. Half the mission is the jet ski journey. I hate it so much that recently I just drive as close to the island as I can and swim the rest of the way. Helps increase my crappy lung capacity.

Hard heist setup with randoms: Deliver EMP in Humane Lab Heist


Heist setup with Criminal Mastermind crew: Steal the bikes from the Lost MC for Pacific Standard, you should have seen how we reacted when one of us crashed into one of them when chasing us. Thankfully though, we still beat the challenge :)



Hardest heist with randoms: Pacific Standard


Hardest heist with CMM crew: Prison Break Heist, out of all the other heists that were easy to do, just this one was more complicated than the rest

Prison break finale seems to be on a league of it's own, it's by far the finale i've finished the least now (even though I would not consider it hard by any mean) there is most of the time a ragequit after one of the guy in the prison can't seems to stop dying.

 

 

But if we except that one because it's mostly due to this being the first 4 player heist in the game, and so many noobs, I would say that the hardest is pacific standard : bikes.... Yeah I don't know why, but there is ALWAYS someone that think he don't need any cover nor any hardened vest and keep dying, and when he finally got a bike he usually go first and die almost instantly to some random LOST aggro... I would not say the mission is hard, I say it's the hardest I've noticed to complete due to other players complete lack of awareness.

1. Bikes - considering I've only died once on this in about 50 attempts it frustrates the hell out of me when people die.

 

Here's a tip, hey host set it to player saved, make sure tho have a heist/utility outfit saved. You'll easily pass this set up and any other set up when wearing it.

 

Another tip either go down the side or take f*cking cover, don't stand in the middle thinking you will be able to survive, seriously, f*cking morons do this constantly. Even when you tell them not to.

 

Trash truck - unfortunately no vests allowed in this one but again I've not died on this as I use something magic called.... Cover. Drivers drive the f*cking truck into the alleyway making it easier and then take cover, you cannot Rambo this.

 

Hack - such a straight forward set up, yet people die so often, don't get why it's just a regular mission.

Well, I've only completed the First three heists all through to finale. And Yes, I think the Prison Break Finale may be the most difficult for newer folks ESPECIALLY if you all dont have mics (which is damn mandatory in the finale anyway IMO) But only because it has the most variables.

 

But, looking at it from another perspective the prison break finale can be made easier with four tips if i may be so bold as to post them.

 

1: Pilot should always when landing the plane to pick up the prof be faced AWAY from the prison. I learned that the hard way. Cop cars and stuff will generally spawn / arrive from that direction but not the other way.

 

2: Easiest way to deal with jets is to fly behind them (INB4 THIS GETS PATCHED) because doing that will cause the jets to just fly around doing basically nothing at all.

 

3: Demoltions should focus on blowing up cop heli's once the prof has been collected and is in the plane. Blowing up the cars on the runway is a bonus.

 

4: Prison officer / prisoner can visit Amu-nation on the way to the prison in order to get the prisoner better weapons. (yes you can visit amu-nation in the middle of a heist finale or setup. Inb4 rockstar patches this.)

 

Having said that, I think that probably the hardest job in that mission (again at least for newer people) would be being the prisoner/officer or realy the prisoner because of lack of weapons and/or armor.

 

I would also have to say Prison Break and the Locating Van part of Pacific. (because people do not read/listen)

 

I was deemed as pilot for the Prison Break.. first time. I flew around (avoiding the jet) for about half an hour, when someone else in the team died.

Second time same story, but the jet kept going outside of the map.. the 2nd time it did this, I couldnt return in time. (probably took over 30 minutes)

Third time.. Kept waiting with the initial approach for the rest of the team to progress a bit.. As pilot.. wait, wait and wait.. then go to the Airstrip, go behind the jet.. and rest is cake.

One thing I'm afraid of.. which you see with games like PayDay2.. are the 'elitists'.

You MAY only do it 1 way, which is deemed the most effective method.. Don't do it that way, you'll get harassed verbally.

It's often impossible to start out as a new player, because you'll get cursed to death.. unless you take out hours to pre-play everything, which beats the purpose.

"Where is that?" -Kick within a second..

Surprises me that people learn the shortcuts for kicking immediately.. I still haven't looked it up in GTA 5. (and still don't know how in Payday/Left4Dead)

If you're that kind of player, please only play with your friends.. You're not fun to play with as a stranger.

 

Ofcourse you should participate in the team.. if the team wants option 1. go with it..

But Grand Theft Auto is fun because it's possibilities.. If one prefers a bike over an easy armored alternative.. go for it.

(unless it's the first heist of whatever)

 

All in the Kuruma.. just not as fun to play

 

In a mission, where you have to destroy 3 jets, I jumped in on a bike, which heavily surprised 2 other players..

More of a challenge often equals more fun to me, but as long as you respect your team and the host.

 

This is the reason, why I mock those going for kills in an armored vehicles.. Enjoy a game without having a challenge.. is simplicity in a pure form. (as is playing the complete game in godmode, which a lot of people do)

 

- Respect for your team > Fun > Challenge (as in.. if you play with a team, it's generally fun.. but it's a lot more fun, when it's a challenge)
