SecuroServ Trophy

[StormerBoy]

 

You can't do that on any of the offices. But you perhaps don't need to, if you walk out the ground exit, look behind you, then it will spawn in front of you. Ie just dont look where you want it to spawn.

 

However, so many players make the mistake of thinking that services like assistant spawn vehicles for extra cost are luxuries. They aren't! If you work out how much time it saves you to get outside, in the buzzard and up to speed. Then compare that to how much money you make per minute on average when doing money making gameplay. You will see it is saving you time, therefor money.

 

It's even true to say that using the luxury helicopter pickup saves you money. Paying 5k to spawn in your office can save you minutes of traveling time.

 

Finally, you will enviably break the buzzard on missions sometimes. So if you've used the pegasus one, then you can call up the CEO one, which again will save time.

I know about the "don't look at the area where you want it to spawn" however I don't agree on paying 5k for a heli each time it's not saving time at all. i rather parachute down and waste 10-15 seconds to get the buzzard.

 

If anyone has an office in Lombank west building, does anybody know an easy way to spawn the helicopter on the helipad and not down on the road and not paying everytime through the secretary?

Landing your Buzzard and entering using the "Enter building with Buzzard button" on the roof should keep it there when you exit to the roof. sometimes it spawns on the road but you can easily parachute down.

 

On another note, with so many Gold members, we should host a big party sometime.

 

I use the buzzard landing pad all the time to enter the building and it's not always staying there, probably a bug or something. With the luxury helicopter, I mean when you are far away from your desired location, eg in blaine county and need to get to office. Then it is a fact that it will save you money, if you are making a good amount of money per hour.

I've been using them on almost every deliveries now ;

 

I call it before entering the warehouse , then you need to exit the warehouse before the chopper touch the ground , else it will go away. You can perfect time it to exit the warehouse , run under the chopper and press triangle at the right moment to skip the door animation. you will teleport inside the chopper ( then i press L3 + x immediatly to instantly start the cutscene to mazebank )

 

That's how you time attack crates pals. : *) ( rough best time is 1:45 here )

 

( 804 / 1000 now. trying to finish before patch. )

On the Lombank roof there is a spot that spawns the chopper on the helipad, it's on the edge of the roof to the left of the door as you're looking at it, and slightly south.

 

I didn't nail it down because I just pay the secretary for a Peg chopper (so the CEO chopper is instantly available if I break that one) but it's there somewhere. You have to look over the city.

 

The street spawns are sh*t.

 

Edit - around here

 

I know what you're talking about, that's what I found as well, and i wouldn't understand anything from the picture lol

[Gridl0k]

But that took me nearly a minute to draw!

[Geisterfaust]

Congrats on your trophies!

 

But damn, guys, I afraid to even imagine how your offices look like after all these sales. After moving on PC I intentionally skipped everything crate-related to keep my office clean and it's fantastic.

Got my gold trophy last night! Finishing that gave me something to pass the time until Gunrunning. I'll edit in a screenshot later!

Nice! I just earned my Silver Trophy in this final push for some cashola...

[Himeros]

here's a better sketch, i put a little bit too much effort, but you could have just added the H on the helipad and I would have understood.

you basically mean this area right, behind the wall. Get behind the wall and then call the helicopter, and it appears on the helipad, doesn't always work.

 

Not necessarily behind the wall, it worked for me when facing away from the helipad right here (the helicopter will appear after calling it)

Same, doesn't always work but I'm just saying that it doesn't have to be behind the wall. I'm not sure what exactly triggers it to be on the helipad and not down on the street.

[Felon Forever]

Time to join this illustrious circle. I got past 1000 crates a long time ago.

 

 

[d3mentu]

Need 2000 crates list.

 

 

[Smooth Longsack]

Wowza! Felon Forever that's insane!

[Felon Forever]

I usually fill both large warehouses at the same time. Nowadays I only do crates when there is a bonus for sales, like the one we just had. I'll probably cross 3000 collections the next time they do a bonus week.

[StormerBoy]

^^ This is a really good question I'd hate to test lol... I've only ever hauled ass when this happens. Worst hit was 8 crates but it was climbing. For a guess, I'd say yes its likely, even probable that your warehouse would end up empty.

 

If you test that, I'll be down to help you re-stock it.

 

Edit: The 8 crates were taken from a medium warehouse.

 

Success! (or failure? lol)

 

I finally got raided with the 'kill the enemies before they steal the contents of your warehouse' mission. I let the mission run through without killing anyone. At the end of the mission, my assistant called me up and told me half the warehouse was taken. I went in to check, and in reality only 4 crates (25%) had been taken.

 

So not the end of the world if you were ever going to be afk at the time of the mission, assuming you only lose 4 crates from a large warehouse too, not 25% ie 28 crates.

[WATTSNATIONALIST]

Didnt Think this was still a thing. Got mine less than a month after release. Good luck to all in the age of everywhere rockets.

[Rented]

Strange that they have a node for the helipad

[fucaoboss]

Finally got it

 

 

[Rafae]

Pardon me ? That's a bit rude considering that i'm grinding those since last january and even posted in your thread before proving that i was on the task a long time ago already... ( grinding my first 500 in the first summer but it was divided on 2 characters. )

No , the crates were complete 3 weeks ago. i was running them since last January.

 

o.O I just never took the time to post and yesterday was a very good moment since i was already uploading tons of stuff.

I'm here also to post my progress.

 

 

 

Bonus image: five large warehouses full of cargo. So satisfying...

 

 

 

 

 

Crate grinding mixed with I/E is my favourite money making method. Just put a podcast or some YouTube video playing in the background and get crates at my heart's content. There's something cathartic about doing simple and repetitive tasks for a long time, while drifting away in your thoughts. When December came around, after Import/Export dropped, I started grinding crates, one at a time, to get the trophy. With some breaks along the way, I finished it in February.

 

Now, I just do it to grind for the DLCs that are to come and for RP since it's one of the best methods to also grind for experience points. Whatever size of shipment you buy, sourcing missions give between 2200 to 3200 RP, if I'm not mistaken, depending on source time needed. Sales, whatever the size, always hand out a generous 5000 RP. On my way to make 60 million for the remaining dripfeed content and whatever comes next and to rank 1000 (currently sitting at 643), I'm closing in 2000 without even noticing. I swear it was a lot harder to reach 1000 than it was to reach 2000, since it was what I was focusing on.

 

I remember reading earlier, but I don't remember who said it anymore, that you should be able to keep all the trophies you got along the way, referring to the way on how the glass trophy was the most beautiful one. I agree, there really should have been a shelf where all your trophies were kept. That way, you would know, more or less, how many you were missing; leaving no way for doubts.

 

Really happy to be part of this as well. Thank you for reading.

MuralDeciphered,

 

I'm sorry I called you fake. I'm a troll and will live out my life in my troll cave. I truly am sorry.

[delorianlazarus]

Hey!

 

This is my first post on these forums... been reading for a while, but never actually subscribed.

 

 

Very happy to join the SecuroServ Golden Club

 

 

On a pure solo grind (PC => Launch mission => exit to roof => climb in Buzzard => pick up and deliver => fly back => quick land => repeat), I was at roughly 12 crates per hour, and reached a peak of 18 when a friend joined and did the errand boy while I stayed in the office.

 

 

 

 

Special thanks to my two friends for their help in this grindfest...

 

My sales figures suck, because I flew a 111-crates full Titan drunk as hell straight to a mountain, and because I flew another 111-crates full Titan perfectly sober but still straight to a mountain while sending a text on my IRL phone.

It looks like photobucket wants me to purchase an upgrade to fix the OP. tough luck poopy bucket. I'll move all the pics to be hosted from tinypic asap.

 

Eta- and done with photobucket. Their site used to be so good but now it's just an ad-ridden wasteland of money grabbing desperation. f*ck you too, photobucket. f*ck you very much.

Can you tell what kind of steal crate mission you will get based on what you are stealing? Eg if it is jewellery, does that mean it won't be the cop ambush one etc?

Nope, the type of crate is meaningless other than for visuals in your warehouses.
