I won't hear any bad words about the double barrelled shotgun, if you don't rush between reloads and use blind fire you can butcher the guards. Take that over SMG any day.

But you never get to use a double barrel shotgun though?

It's only available for big con and you don't want to start shooting on it, undetected in and out is the way to go

^ I play about 10-20 heists with randoms via Quick Job for every one of my own I run. You get used to being discovered with 'sh*tty' weapons

they will probably patch it as fast as the armed speedo godmode glitch... oh wait that one still work

Probably posted before, but why don't the Casino Heist Awards appear on the Social Club so that we can check them from a browser or our mobile phones? You can see them in game by going to the Stats tab from the pause menu, but that's it. So inconsistent and annoying!

[Gunbladelad]

I've gotta love how flying an ultralight in a public session attracts the attention of every single try-hard in a Buzzard or Oppressor Mk2 who's in the session - they all make a beeline for it to shoot it down simply because they know it can't shoot back.

So remind me again what's the point of a businesses that makes money by itself, but doesn't deposit the money automatically to my account? Like, would it kill you to deposit 11k into my account every hour? sh*t, I gotta go out of my way to collect money from 2 businesses for literally no reason.

Because we needed a callback to the awesome game that was GTA Vice City in which we had to drive to our assets to pick up the money. Of course, Vice City was much, much, much smaller than Los Santos, and I guess it's just a  way for R* do delay us from making more money.

As for the dots, if you don't get a level 2 card then f*ck you. If it's someone else's heist, they can do the f*cking thing.

Easiest way is take a phone picture of the pattern.

Yup, getting that level 2 pass takes less time than hacking all the keypads during the finale. Also, in case anyone wonders, I tried to buy level 2 cards, but got level 1 (found that out during the finale, which I promptly quit), so I still had to go and steal level 2 passes.

Doing a Big Con heist with randoms reminds me I'm only damaging my sanity because I want to. We went with Bugstars, that could've been a red flag but no; I wanted to unlock that jumpsuit. I see the guards armed to the teeth - first red flag. Going up the stairs to the office, someone tries to hack the keypad and he fails - second red flag. Someone else tries to hack it and fails, raising up the alarm. When I try to hack the keypad, I see it's the FINGERPRINT SCANNER. They couldn't hack a fingerprint scanner.

 

Further on, instead of stealthing it on the basement they decide to go all Rambo on the fully armed guards... with ceramic pistols. By the 7th try and after getting the stashed assault shotguns, we manage to get to the vault. I open a fingerprint scanner door and steal my loot. Forty seconds left and the two guys couldn't crack the two fingerprint scanners open, leaving some loot behind. We were four and we still couldn't get two paintings. Probably this is not new, but after I killed a guard and stayed by the exit, I moved away to try to cover the others and the guard respawned. Good thing I noticed quickly or I'd be collandeered.

As we leave the casino, someone got killed. We respawn and someone leaves.

 

Good one. I don't know why I get so giddy with these random heist invites I get.

Don't you need to be the host to unlock outfits?

If you don't kill the patrols Duggan Shipments, then you can believe I'm f*cking quitting if you're being a cheap ass and using Karl on Aggressive! Those heavy armored f*ckers will tear you apart! We didn't even have reinformed armor lmao. Preps are FREE to do people, DO them!

Reinforced armor is worth paying for if you somehow fail to complete the prep.

Every gunman gives you a standard SMG, but you're right, bulletproof helmets on the guards AND no armor for you is an automatic quit.

Also, don't be intimidated by the Duggan Shipments prep, you really only need 3-6 kills. I bet most people skip it because they think know they can not get all 10 and say screw it.

Yeah, if I'd join any finale and it's Aggressive, and the host hasn't done Duggan Shipments and the reinforced armor then I'm out. I don't want to deal with multiple restarts because we're runing wround with paper thin health, thank you very much.

 

As for Silent and Sneaky, you can pretty much solo it if you're good at taking out 2 guards in two shots swiftly. I tend to shoot the guy behind the desk first and then the guy outside of desk if that pair spawns near the staff lobby entrance. Guy behind desk has had tendency of being lightnign quick with drawing out his gun. Btu yeah, if you can get good enough to solo the stealth section you can tell the reandoms to stay back while you clear a path for them through guard killing and cam stunning.

 

Duggan shipments can be quite optional for stealth. You can still bop guards with gun and the vault room armor guard can be snuck up on by hugging the wall (Looks RIDICULOUS, though. No peripheral vision). Getting the EMP makes for a nice fallback should guard pattern be hard to get down the first few times.

 

In my testing, I needed 3 kills to remove their bulletproof helmets and 6 to downgrade their weapons. If I do silent&sneaky, I'll get coffee after 3 kills. If I'm doing Aggressive, I'll get coffee after 6.

Also, there should be an option to cancel the whole heist even if you are playing it for the first time. Imagine hiring Karl on Aggressive and failing the Duggan Shipments prep so bad that the guards have helmets.

I've won the Everon two times now, but I don't even want it. I've just rejected it both times. Why doesn't this happen with cars I would actually keep

[TheGhostFromPast]

So then...I begun to play Sightseer and everything went well until the moment when I had to hack in order to find out the location of the 3rd package. Then, of course, error message had to welcome me. Thanks to the fact how often I see error messages in this game now I have an impression that this game is in love with error messages.  

 

Anyway! After that I bought a new car, which reminded me that this game is more like a second job than a game, because it's hard to earn decent amount of money, but it's so easy to lose money. Of course if someone can dedicate 3 and more hours in a day for this game then it's easier to earn money, but I can't dedicate so much time every day for video games. 

 

And on top of it all the "good" old Casino lucky wheel!  Fine, don't give me a car, but stop giving me damn RP and clothes!!! 30 000$ would be nice and before someone starts telling me that I'm asking too much he should look on prices in every GTA:O store! 30 000$ is almost nothing in GTA:O world.

Because they can´t ad a single line of code to stop it as they stop money glitches! And secondly they are to cheap to hire enough programmers to fix all bugs!

I had a damn heartattack last night

 

Got the mystery prize and had the "Pick a garage" prompt. I thought I'd won the Slamvan

But no....

It was a f*cking lame Bati 800RR. I just backed out, I can't even resell the one I have for a profit. It's a loss if I swap them out

This. And I'm pissy about being oof'd out of my weaponized vehicles. Can't use my RC in passive, even though I have NO explosives on it. Can't use my Scramjet to woosh around without some trigger happy retard nuking me just because I COULD MAYBE decide to shoot at him. Can't fly around and play with the Deluxo.

Actually, you can. Just take the weapons off. I've been enjoying cruising around in my Deluxo these days.

I had this happen a while back but I got the faggio “sport”   It was even worse when I got the the mystery-pick garage- then saw slamvan,  yea it was the regular truck.  Went from cloud 9 to the gutter when I saw that.

I think they hire from the same genepool that the show TMZ does. Seriously those people are as dumb as a bag of rocks.

Crazy FPS drop during this mission, how to explain it? It massively drops the moment I blow up the Stockade with buzzard, then returns to +70 when I take distance from the jewelry...

Are any other PC players noticing random drops in frame rate in certain locations lately? A few that spring to mind for me are inside my large crate warehouse, inside my terrorbyte and the corridor area in the casino, just before going through security to get to the vault.

The whole depositing money feature is utterly pointless, and a complete waste of time. There is no need to have money in two separate locations (cash in hand and bank). All money earned should be automatically banked.

Not really, but check the power scheme on your GPU. Recent drivers update somehow have put the GPU in the "Optimal power" mode. Otherwise, something should be broken in-game and fps drops in Online are pretty normal especially with some aggressive AI spawns. Faster RAM may help with some of it, but won't fix the broken game. That's the case @Hécate-II describes, IMO.

This game is broken beyond repair.

 

 

 

 

Such moments makes me wonder in what bizarre video game have I sneezed myself into?!  

 

Despite of shameless fish card prices they still earn enough to improve this game and yet, instead of improving it to the point where errors and things like this are rarity, they try to milk money out of their customers in all possible ways. 

 

P.S.

 

I think the fact that GTA:O, despite of all these annoying errors, still has customers should be included in Guinness World Records, because I'm pretty sure that if it would be any other video game then at this point it would've lost all its players.

I've noticed that clean blips (no weaponized or aircracft icon) attract the sh*t out of the hover bike goons. Even if you're halfway across the map, they will travel all the way just to get that sweet 1-0. They simply love to target players driving around in their regular cars, because, of course, the game will do all of the work for them; in other words, press fire button, BOOM! Then they fly away like a mosquito... and then they come back if they see you're in a car again. 

 

The sad part is that they think this makes them good at the game. The only time they struggle and likely get smacked is when they come across another one of their kind, or an experienced jet pilot, or a Stromberg, etc. You know, vehicles that can actually F UCKING FIGHT BACK.

[HamwithCheese]

God I spent 30 minutes hopping around jobs, only to find the host afk. Too goddamn lazy to play a f*cking video game, can you believe it? Then the game f*cking defys the laws of physics and shoots me whilst behind a wall. I'm f*cking done this week, what a f*cking douche bag video game.
