So yeah, I hope that maths came from reddit because if it's from this place I'd be really disappointed.

 

What I meant is filling a warehouse using only Lupe would cost you half the full value if she, which she does most of the time, only finds you one crate. Yes, she can get you Special Items but you wil blow through a fortune and time to get the small chance she finds you something good.

 

Admittedly, she can source you stuff while you source it as well, potentially doubling what you find, but the fact it takes her an entire in game day to find one crate is terrible.

Not sure about that. Don't think GTA 6 will be released next year. So R* will continue to make big updates until the release date, etc. are confirmed.

Yeh probably and they will use these rumored community gamemode updates in the meantime. Just hope we go heisting with the trio and we finally get mansions.

The VIP Contract Ep.2 - Michael de Santa

 

1. Custom Issue

 

After the update, Franklin calls to player and ask to visit the agency to help a friend of his(and also will be a great client)

When player visit agency, Michael soon came after, and tell to Franklin that he has a custom issue and want his props back to make his next movie.

Franklin introduce player to Michale, and suggest let the problem solve to professional.

Micael says to player, "I always trump big for a job well done" (this quote is frome when Micael meet Franklin for the first time in GTA V)

Player goes to Terminal, search the container(like Casino Work), and by help of Imani, player change cloth like harbor worker and stole flatbed with container.(Mission can be designed like Scouting the port in GTA V for moving container) 

If the player attacks any civillians or cops, this mission will have chance chasing with cops.

 

2. Package Recovery

Few minutes after player complete the mission, Franklin calls to player and he has an emergency situation and ask to come back to office ASAP.

When player came back to agency, Imani had panic how someone get breached the agency security and stole the Michael's props.

But finally, Imani found evidance by hacking cctv in Los Santos street, and ask player to visit Little Seoul.

Player sneaks/Invade the Kkangpae, and hack their computer(or check gps their cars), Imani find the Kkangpae sold the props to the Triad, Merrywehter, and Dugan Families

Franklin call back player that he need to take time to make plan how to retrieve the props and wonder why the props got interest by so many factions, but Michael don't no why.

Then, Agent 14 (and ULP also? may be rackman also) came in and tell them why.

That prop was not prop, It was KF-21, STOL availabe(like Toola booster), Stealth fighter and somehow, Kkangpae stoled and tried to sell to IAA, but player re-stoled from port, so Kkangpae re-stoled agency supported by IAA(So Imani couldn't notice the agency had been breached).

But they got dissatisfied of low paying of IAA(they had to heist twice, in south korea, and additional, the player agency), so sold to multiple faction instead.

Now the IAA is asking to Agency to retrieve all the parts of fighters, because it is national security issue, and says they can't move army because diplomatic issue is at stake on this mission. (Ofcourse, the US stoled allie's new high-tec fighter lol)

 

3. The Triad Pt.1 (can be chosen later - like Dr.Dre)

Imani tells that Dugan had critical losses recently(yes, the IAA missions, R.I.P Mason), and want the fighter to make thier own army, or at least sell to US goverment, so they are trying to negotiation with merrywether, and preparing to strike triad to get the part of fighter, and may be we can take chance before they attack the Triad.

Imani checked the communication of Triad, and they asked for help to the LOST, and Imani expect to search the clubhouse(or Tequi-la-la, or hideout front of casino? for scout of dugan) of LOST that they are so stupid, so they may made a note where they are tring to go and secure location.

Successfully invade of clubhouse(or whatever), the LOST chase player but player evade thier attack, and mission passed.

 

4. The Triad Pt.2

Franklin launches the mission to retrieve the part of fighter, and player move to paleto port, but he/she found a madness of warzone between Dugan and Triad. Player was late so close!

Player have to run away from Dugan's chase.

 

5. The Triad Pt.3

Imani hacked Dugan's communications and found the package is tring to move from Marlowe Vineyards to Casino vault by Cargobob.

Player run to Marlowe Vineyards and attacks Dugan's security group and hijack Cargobob and retrieve fighter's part to agency. (Ofcourse, Dugans are trting to chase Cargobob with buzzard, So It may be hard to do solo, Rockstar need to buff Cargobob's hitpoint, or give several Cargobobs to to try retrieve package again, or when the Cargobob get into the city, cops block buzzards so they can't chase.)

 

6. The Merryweather Pt.1 (can be chosen later - like Dr.Dre)

Imani confirmed already the package is in the Merryweaher's base, but the Merryweaher  fortified it so there aren't any way to retrieve the package, she told. But then Frankling says he have an idea, and ask Imani to search any military grade hardware is on convoy. Imani soon found it, and Franklin order to stole it. (Yes, It is Paleto Score's Ballistic Equipment)

After stole the barrack, The army scremble for retrieve Ballistic Equipment, and Player have to evade it and get back to agency.

 

7. The Merryweather Pt.2 

Merryweather call reinforcement and came  Spruance classed destroyer in Merryweathers base. If it remains when player trying to retrieve the package, destroyer's fire support will tear him/her down even he/she wears Ballistic Equipment, and ofcourse the cargobob will be also too. So Franklin ask player to sink it down.

Player Sneak(highly recommanded) or assault to merryweather base and set charge multiple Satchel Charges and success to destroy the destroyer.

(The Spruance destroyer has anti-aircraft system all the time, so it can be only destroyed by the Satchel Charges

 

8. The Merryweather Pt.3 

Franklin call to player and ask back to agency ASAP. Imani was watching merryweather's cctv and they are tring to move package to somewhere out of Los Santos by plane after the Spruance got sunk and their base has been breached.

Player ran to LSIA and assault to the Cargo Plane and hijack it. and move to Sandy Shore Airfield.

Merryweather launches lazers and tried to intercept player, but the IAA call to fall back, So player got safe return, but after landing, IAA take the package.

9. The Dugan Family Pt.1 (can be chosen later - like Dr.Dre)

Imani strongly doubt that Dugans may secure the package in the Casino's vault, but can't hack Inner cctv line from outside. So she ask player to get inside the casino and set a bug equiptment.

Player tried to sneak the Staff Lobby(Thx to Stun gun, the cctv can be down without warning), player plant equiptment into the staff's office where the players open daily vault and escape(ofcourse, If the player fail to sneak, the cop and dugan will chase you).

 

10. The Dugan Family Pt.2

Imani confirms the package is in the vault, and luckly, the Dugans are trying to collect their money with Gruppe Sechs, So Franklin ask player to steal the truck, and trying the Big Con.

And Michael says he is tired to just wait and willing to help so he join the heist (This is for the solo players, and He had already had big con on the Big Score on GTA V).

With his help, the player sneak into the vault, and success to steal the package. (or, by the trolling, It can be Aggressive)

 

11. The Dugan Family Pt.3

Dugan notice that the michael joins the casino's heist (may be he said "You forget thousands of things everyday" again), They tried to take back the package with kidnapping Tracey De Santa in the UCLS, and Michale Joins to rescue operation as like Meltdown in GTA V.

Player drives the Flatbed which the package is on, and moves to UCLS, and found there's no Tracey, but only Dugan's army. So player escape, and with Imani's help, she found Tracey's location and Michael ran to rescue Tracey. After player loss the Dugan's trace, player also joins the rescue, and save Michael and Tracey. (I'm not sure where the location should be good to hold Tracey yet, need advice)

Michael thanks to player and says "I'm too old to do this sh*t" like Ending C in GTA V

 

12. Package Delivery 

IAA greatful all the part of fighters got recovered, and ask deliver remaining parts to Fort Zancudo base, because the Russian's Invasion is now imminent threat to Los Santos, and they want to secure the new fighter.

Player drives the MOC taken by IAA package within, and suddenly Unknown Missile Bombardment came in so Franklin decide to hide the MOC to sewer.

IAA trying to gps jamming the package to secure, and after the job is done, player can came out from sewer, but have to drive fast for the jamming keep works (yes, it's same as Cover Blown, the MOC mission)

After player successfully get in to Fort Zancudo, IAA debrief that the missile bombardment was Russian's stealth attack drone(Bayraktar TB2), and that's why we needed the KF-21.

 

13. TOP BANG

Michael, Franklin, and player are invited to Fort Zancudo as join the test flight of KF-21, but when they arrives, huge scale of  missile bombardment(can reuse merryweather's air strike service, but massive) strikes again the base, and all of the lazers outside of hangers got crashed, multiple soldiers became casualties.

IAA order to scramble to intercept the attackers and player lift off with KF-21, and found Bogdan came back with Moscow class cruiser(or LCS), escorted by multiple Bayraktar TB2, sktriking Fort Zancudo with heavy missile bombardment.

The Bogdan was trying to deal with Dugan, but fail so attacked finally.

Player take down all of the attackers, and IAA says KF-21 should be retrieve, so land it down on the USS Luxington

IAA thanks to player, and they will pay reward to player and also Michael that sorry of His family got kidnapped.

 

14. Epilouge

Player can now buy Spruance class destroyer, and can call to captain and ask missile bombardment like Merryweather airstrike service, when the ship is called out to Los Santos (This can't be called out with Terrorbyte, and Kosatka or MOC) and also can buy KF-21 too.

 

I want to suggest to Rockstar to make new VIP Contract, because of these reasons.

 

- Players are expecting new heist.

- Players are expecting meet with Micael again.

- Micael is now working Movie director, so the heist should be relative with Movies.

- Recently, the Topgun : Maverick got huge success.

- Recently, South Korea has success with taking off their new fighter, KF-21.

- Spruance class destroyer came in the movie in Pearl Harbor.

- There has been no additional Military weapons for these days and some players got tired of this.

- There has been also no additional ships recently.

- There has been also no flight things recently too.

- KF-21 has two engines, two vertical tails, but there isn't any of planes in GTA Online (Vesra has two engines, but single vertical tail)

- Recently, The war is on at Ukrine, and all of the world are blame on Russian's invade. and you can sink it down the Moscow class again.

- Yes, sorry for Bayraktar TB2 has to be down, But I thought, There is RC car, and it's upgrade version with Invade and Persuade, Why not the drone?

- I tried to design this heist as the players remind the story of GTA V.

- I tried to reuse of GTA Online assets and not to make new assets as possible.

- I tried to make this heist scale as same as VIP Contract : Dr. Dre.

 

I am a South Korean, and sorry I'm poor at English, So may be there are som grammer Issue, but hope you can understand my Idea, and want some advice and get some help to suggest to Rocstar to add this heist.

Thank you for reading!

It would still depend on the time you put in. Driving to a warehouse just to request a crate is tedious and probably not worth the time. You could sell the crate for up to $40k however. ($20k/per crate for full large warehouse + potential x2 bonus)

Because R* has failed to do basic research on NATO aircraft. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M61_Vulcan#Ammunition

The new PGU-28/B round was developed in the mid-1980s. It is a semi-armor-piercing high-explosive incendiary (SAPHEI) round, providing improvements in range, accuracy, and power over the preceding M56A3 HEI round. PGU-28/B is a "low-drag" round designed to reduce in-flight drag and deceleration, and has a slightly increased muzzle velocity of 1,050 metres per second (3,450 ft/s). However, the PGU-28/B has not been without problems. A 2000 USAF safety report noted 24 premature detonation mishaps (causing serious damage in many cases) in 12 years with the SAPHEI round, compared to only two such mishaps in the entire recorded history of the M56 round. The report estimated that the current PGU-28/B had a potential failure rate 80 times higher than USAF standards permit. Due to safety issues, it was limited to emergency wartime use in 2000.

[TheCoolDean]

It looks like anti-aliasing is broken here on PC after this update. There are way more jaggies, and textures just don't look so sharp as before.

 

I've been playing with MSAA x2 all these years but even after bumping up to MSAA x4, the jaggies are still there.

[Spider-Vice]

Some shader files were changed, I also noticed a difference but I don't think it's everything that's more jagged, just a few specific things. Kind of weird. Roads look sharper due to that.

The jets have always been a more of an annoyance than the MKII douchestick , and IMO, they needed the nerf more than the MKII,   I am so tired of hearing the r/gtaonline echo chamber of saying, just use the boom boom sniper, maybe on PC its a piece of cake to take them out, but on console, not as easy, and if the pilot is really skilled, they can make it damn near impossible to land a few hits.  

I think I am  about 50/50 with taking them out with the boom boom ammo.

Edit, don't get me wrong, the MKII douchbags are very annoying too, but IMO they are bit easier to deal with compared to jets.

Update aside. In my world this game is running like dog sh*t.. Im seeing rainbow colored boxes and buildings. These 30 player sessions on the ps4 are too funny and I don't mean that in a good way. 

 

Most happy with there being new ways to kill people and eviscerate the mk2 kids. Otherwise, it is somewhat difficult going back to 5 yr old businesses for these simple deliveries and what not. Like give us updates like this 6 months after the initial release.

 

Rockstar you silly f**** 

[AUScowboy]

Every morning since the update I’ve woken up and thought to myself “did they really de-nerf the tuners?”. I can’t believe they actually did it, I didn’t think the voices taking an issue with their nerfing would be enough to make it happen.. I hope they remove all the flags and weird values with the next DLC.

 

I hope the first few events of this DLC bring the service rifle and Junk skydiving stuff, I’d hate to see them held back for months. Content wise all we got on day one was 6 missions (which were great) and some side activities for existing businesses, not exactly a wealth of stuff to do. I guess that’s why they added the crime scenes, Junk event and car showrooms. I just hope they don’t drag them out until November..

did rockstar mess up the cayo perico cooldown?

yesterday i think it was fine, i didn’t 100% check the time, but i think i got it roughly after 3 ingame days or something like that. 

 

earlier today i finished another cayo and now i have been waiting 3 hours and still can’t set cayo up

 

i would love to start up the heist today and secure my hard mode before i turn off my ps5..

Do the finale. Breeze through it because 

 

A: I played on easy

 

B: Had my minigun ready at all times.

 

Complete it, loading to free roam. Kicked to SP because of an error. F*ck's sake, if GTA VI doesn't have dedicated servers it will be the embarrassment of the century. 

 

Oh, and we've been saying for almost NINE GOD DAMNED YEARS that we want to mute certain calls/ contacts.
