Complete Guide to the Elite Challenges


Recommended Posts

We missed Fleeca by 12sec, any tips?

 

 

^ watch the world record route on pc and take the same route i just completed it with 5sec left on ps4

 

yup as suggested by these guys, take our route. With a bit of practice on the drill section in particular (this takes the longest time of all the sections really so you want to be fast) then you should finish in lots of time. I'd also recommend driving the Kuruma route multiple times until you can do it without thinking. The traffic spawns are always random so you always have to make split second decisions to bike it/drive it through the route without a bump or a crash. For ease, here is my video below of the route. The bike we are using is the Akuma at the start. Any more questions let me know and I can try and answer further on specifics :lol:

 

Hey everybody. So I have made a race that mirrors the route used for the pacific standard heist elite challenge youtube video in the OP. Its for practicing the route to get the elite challenge, cmm challenge, or just another way to complete the mission. The link is posted in the creator section (I didn't know if I could post the link in here). Mabey KatyPerry could check it out, if its good enough you may want to add it to the OP for use.

 

Given that this is the Guide area where we are all posting tips etc, I am sure wouldn't have a problem with you posting your race here. However, having done both Elite and CMM I would never suggest the Elite run for CMM Challenge. Far too much risk. You want to be completing the final heist (especially if you are doing them all in one single run 7hrs+!) as safe and as risk free as possible

 

This is so gay, I've done pacific heist WITH TELEPORT GLITCH and it was 14mins what the f*ck is this bullsh*t, there were 6-8mins left on clock

So you tried to cheat to beat the challenge and you think it is gay that it didnt work? lol

 

Just to be clear, that would not be accepted on the Elite board (using glitches) if that was your intention? Perhaps I should add that to the Rules page to single out Wall Glitching?

For Prison Break. Is there an area that the Demo guy will be safe from the prison rockets, yet still be able to lock onto the Noose? I've tried a couple times doing that as Demo's, yet It seemed like I spent more time trying to dodge the rockets than firing on Noose.

Dam, fleecas time is so hard. Gonna be tough to get elite.

Which part are you having trouble with?

You are probably getting too close or too low. If you keep having the same problem back away a bit and go a little higher. You want to circle the prison while keeping the same distance away from it. Just have to find the sweet spot.

Vincepsx told me the sweet spot is by a telephone pole...

 

The whole fleeca. Tried going over cement ditch, and over bridge. Just cant seem to get that 5:19 time limit. Mabey you will be around tomorrow (if they release you back into GENERAL POPULATION ;) ) lolz, naughty boy, lolz.

telephone pole? wtf lol

Yes I am back lol and I should be around all day.

If you are keeping time, in my experiance the game always adds 4 seconds to my timer so In actuality you have to be hooked to the magnet in 5:15. Ive done done fleeca 6 times now and its always the same sh*t. I probably would have passed it atleast a dozen times if it werent for them adding 4 seconds. But everytime without fail if I my timer says 517-518 i always get a 522-523

I dont know but I think if you stay in one spot you wont get as many locks on the enemies. I start on the south side of the prison and end up on the north side circling clockwise.

So with the help of Stang0ne50 I was able to beat the FLEECA elite (1 down, 4 to go) THANK YOU AGAIN. Now he was right about the time thing. We got it in 5:12, although it registered at 5:16. So make sure you get hooked to the magnet by 5:15, it seems it adds 4 seconds to your time somehow.

 

THAT SHIRT WILL BE MINE!!!!!

The time starts when you can move on all of them, except for prison break, that starts when you get to rashkovski and give him the gun, after that cut scene. Download a stop watch app, if you dont have a stop watch, every millisecond counts in elite challenged. Not sure exactly when it ends on each one (except for fleeca, since i did it, be attached by magnet @ 5:15,) there is the times in the op of elite challenges walkthru. Thats what i use to try to learn the tips n tricks for this challenge. The start/end times are there posted, i just dont have them memorized. Pay attention to the benchmark times as well. If you dont make it, you can open up phone (host), where you get the job invites, presd square to trashcan mission (end it) and start it again.these are not easy. You will probably find yourself doing them multiple times.

Actually Stang0ne50 helped me beat fleeca (a couple of posts up, 5:12, but *C timed it at 5:16, cheating bastards) but i do need the other 4 elite challenges. I would love to join a team that can help me achieve this. Thank you.

 

 

 

Dam, fleecas time is so hard. Gonna be tough to get elite.

which part are you struggling with in particular? Maybe we can help. I believe all of us have played Fleeca aiming for elite many times given it is the first Heist.

ok good. there are a growing number of ps3 players now getting faster and faster times. I am sure along with Stag you can get into one of their teams to try get on the boards for your remaining heists

Hey I'm on PS4, gamertag is Rekia87, available when ever, eastern time zone, I have a mic and I'm rank 182. I'm hoping to find some serious people to do Heists with because randumbs and low ranks are killing me... They don't know what theyre doing and I'm just trying to get stuff done in say... I don't know... Less than five tries. I'm only looking to do the elite challenges on the Fleeca Job and I don't mind doing any of the Heists. I'm willing to help on anything and won't complain about unfair pay. I'll take whatever the host thinks is fair, within reason. Ten percent isn't fair.

If you are looking to join a heist team, you should post In the meet up section. This is the guide section, and this is the guide to elite challenges. You will have better luck finding others in the ps4 elite meet up.

So when do the timers EXACTLY start and end?

the timer starts when that green piece of game interface drops down in the beginning of the heist.

for fleeca it stops when you've got attached to the magnet, i'd ASSUME that for every other heist except pb it stops when you trigger the final cutscene.

Cracka.Brew

Every one starts when you can move except for pb, it starts when you give rashkovski the gun. Dl a stop watch app if got smart/android phone. Every millisecond counts for elite challenges (fleeca adds 4 seconds. So magnet by 5:15, it adds 4 seconds (im witness as i experienced it) if you are at 5:20.01, your screwed. That .01 makes all the diffrence in the world..

It took me basically only one day to get the Humane Labs Raid Elite challenge done! :D

 

I used Oleg's method (and yes, I remember when you pointed that out, thank you for that) to remove my heavy utility vest by selecting an independence day mask to remove it on the swimming part. (I used HUV while the other ground team member was wearing light clothing)

 

We did it on hard, I even crashed once, the chopper was smoking and we still had 10 seconds left, and it was the last attempt for the day. I'm impressed by myself, actually.

Thank you Kuusko, TrevorAngry (Inaldo) and gtaguy95!

I still have to complete Series A and the Pacific Standard for/with you guys. :)

Pacific Standard timer ends when the last person is in the boat. Edited by lol232

Helped my guys get it done as well:

Woop!

 

Thank you for all the fun - Kussko, Inaldo and gtaguy95. :p

 

We literally completed Pacific Standard Elite Challenge on our first try (which wasn't even serious, it was just a demo run). I'm pretty positive Rockstar wasn't depending on players going directly to the boat when they were coming up with the time for the elite challenge.
