Heists should be locked until the player reaches level 50?

[Kreaytivity]

If Rank meant something in this game then perhaps.

 

But rank is nothing more than an artificial time lock that stops you getting a few items until you've played the game for x number of hours.

No

[Sugarfoot]

We just need heist stats. This will let us know about how well a person completes objectives in heist. These stats would combine if the player has 2 characters.

 

Rockstar already combines total of race wins/loses if people have 2 characters. Level unlock for heist might not be good for people with 2 characters.

mmm low levels are a liability in heist due to their low health and inability to carry multiple armors, i dont think its a good idea to lock them out of this feature, eventho doing so would help them in the long run as they would acquire more experience in the game before jumping into heist.

[Grimoire]

I've only played with low level randoms that were complete trash...They would die and quit..Completely wasting my time.

 

I don't know where these high skilled low levels are but i've never played with one...Especially on PC where the majority are new to the game. (Some transferred but yeah...Most low levels here are brand new noobs)

to be honest, the only time i have played with skilled low levels were a couple people i know on their second characters.

[Biggie Kaniff]

lock it to at least level 100 instead. noobs should have to progress in gtao before being able to pull big heists.

It is possible to carry lower ranks through certain finales if you communicate with them and hold their hands every step of the way. I wouldnt mind if they were level locked a little higher though. Low level randoms are terrible in heists anyone who disagrees is an enemy of truth

[Pedinhuh]

I already said this a dozen times, level doesn't determine a player's skill whatsover, there are tons of RP glitches out there one can do to boost it up, or someone can just ask a modder to do it, simple.

 

But I do think the requirement to HOST the heists should be higher, if we take into consideration that there are missions that unlocks only after level 30, 40, etc...

[Sugarfoot]

The matchmaking is terrible. I'm At level 402, rockstar is still sending low levels to my heist.

 

Could be the Christmas noob rush also but the amount of people under level 10 joining my heist is higher than usual at the moment.

[dlow]

90% of me says NO to locking the rank in to level 50, Mainly because Heists are a good way to help players who are just starting out, I used Flecca Job to help 3 friends who got the game for christmas by giving them the largest cut i could and since they would get the first time bonus it is a good way to give them quick injection of cash for an Apt or garage and some weapons

 

Locking the rank for "Hosting the Heist" is OK by me but not for being able to join one by invitation

 

As Far as Rank alone goes it does not mean a lot, as i have seen players who show more common sense in playing at a Low Rank especially when they know things like the Health stat and lack of Armour plays against them......they take a slower more tactical approach to complete it...and yes i have saw plenty of "New Blood Rambos" who die and die and die and die again

[JMemphis]

Personally, I think higher...

[Billaght]

This may have been mentioned but I am to lazy to scroll through all of the comments. What annoys me more is the fact that 9 times out of 10 when I join a hiest its on normal. Is it that hard that you have to do it on normal.

[Str33tJustus]

I don't do heists with anyone below rank 100...so yeah, they should be locked until then.

I see that alot too now. People putting PacStan finale on normal. I always back out of those. That alone tells me they play like a noob.

[mystifo]

Totally disagree. Plenty of lower levels who can complete Heists, sometimes their drive/motivation is better. Far too many players 100+ who ruin heists. I'd rather play a heist with someone below 100 who wants to get it done, then some nonce above level 100 who wants to mess about. It's all down to the person behind the controller at the end of the day (or keyboard). I suppose more so it's all down to personal choice, I personally wouldn't kick someone based on their level, but that's me.

[Pilomi]

@OP, ahh, so it's ok when you do them under level 50, but, when others wants to, then it's not... There is one word for that.

 

And no we dont need to set a level for that. I had no problems with people under level20 on them, when i was doing it on my level 82.

[soundism]

Only players who have already played heists should be allowed to join a heist.

Because you don't play with people below an arbitrary rank it should be locked at that level?

 

Played with a guy over level 300 a few weeks ago and he couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. Not sure you have your finger on the pulse here.

From personal experience it couldn't be placed more perfectly on the pulse.

 

I was much past Rank 100 by the time Heists were released and every time I've given lower ranks chances, they screw up and/or quit after their own screwup.

[Sugarfoot]

Yea low ranks do quit alot after they die once or twice. I guess they realize they need more experience or they probably thought we carry them. I've had a level 5 join my heist finale before and asked if I take 0% and give him my cut. I booted him for being cocky. Sometimes I don't think they know yet how hard it is to complete heist. They see it like missions.

 

"Oh I died" let's retry again and again and again and again.

[slimeball supreme]

 

No

how about no?

 

 

Absolutely not.

 

 

Sounds like a bad, unfair idea to me.

 

No.

Nope.

Ehmm. Right... People have to start somewhere? You are essentially saying that if you haven't played a Heist by now, then you shall never be allowed to?

[Mokuakae]

Oh no! Not level locking again. New players not allowed to play heists until level 50 or 100? May take them weeks to get there. This game is getting old, level locking just puts people off. Some members here seem to just want this game all to themselves.

Something about judging a book by its cover. One of my friends started over with a second character who is a 29 and that guy never dies.

 

Now, you probably are playing the odds when it comes to randumbs. I refuse to do it with them, so that might be the difference. Our judgement is certainly colored by our experience, even when the sample size is small.

[HaRdSTyLe_83]

The player can't join or host a heist until he reaches level 50. What do you guys think?

The player cant make useless threads until....

 

 

 

If you dont want them in your heists stop inviting

 

If you dont want to be in his heist... Leave

Sorry, but your idea would achieve nothing.

 

Recently I've seen players as low as rank 10 complete hard difficulty heist finales on first attempt.

Also I've seen rank 200+ players fail normal difficulty setup missions through sheer stupidity.

 

As someone already said, rank means nothing as far as skill is concerned.

[richard1997jones]

What difference does it make. If its money your worried about them having then don't bother because players will find other ways of exploits.
