I like using my Anti-Aircraft Trailer, but hardly any randoms drive vehicles with a hitch. And when they do have an appropriate car they usually drive off before my Trailer spawns in and I have to flag them down, once they see it they know to hook onto it though. 

[Sentinel Driver]

Any mission with a target in a moving vehicle + vigilante

why use a missile to blow them up, that's boring

crash into them, use the back blast boost to send them far far away

[Hazzardtohimself]

It's not a vehicle, but I'm having some fun (and getting shot full of holes, usually) doing missions with the Up'N'Atomiser. 

 

And I'd forgotten how throaty the Titan is when it's flying. It's nice to use it again without being swarmed with Broomsticks or Orbital Spam.

.......

I love this thing!

NPC behind cover?

BOINK!

Not any more. 

Switch between the Atomizer and Combat MG when things get pressing, but the Atomizer is my go to weapon if I can control the pace of combat.

 

I stole a Carbonizzare last night to do Out of Court (good quick filler mission, not a high payout, but fun N easy).

Just had a blast zooming around losing the cops.

I love that little car, wish it would go on sale.

Haha awesome. The dispatch mission where you go inside the building at the junk site is great. The UnA almost acts like a flash bang, stunning enemies as you move room to room. A random was mopping up the enemies I had stunned. The blast shatters the windows too adding to the effect.

 

FYI, headshots with the UnA can get one hit kills.

somehow i didn't own the Half-track until it went on sale recently.    assuming you're not flying solo, it's a hell of a lot of fun for the jobs with a lot of enemies in a position they *think* they're set up to defend.     Crystal Clear Out, Master Data, Diamonds are for Trevor, etc..     pretty sweet.     fantastic when you're spawning just around the corner.    not so fantastic if there's a long drive, but hey, the longer you take the more you get paid, right?    

 

the tip above re: the AA trailer is a gem.    didn't realize you could summon that in contacts.     gotta get my homie on that Nightshark ASAP.

Haha I like that gas bomb tactic for Crime Scenester!  Gonna try that next time with my Akula.  I did the mission today funnily enough in my Scarab.  Charged down the ally, ignoring all the cops, barging them out of the way, jumped out to grab case, got back in and sped off again.  Fastest I've ever done it.

I'll try your method tomorrow with my RCV & see how it goes.

 

So I tried the RCV. It got the job done, but I wouldn't do it again. The RCV just doesn't have enough torque to push things out of the way & keep charging like other trucks with blows.

Yeah, plus the RCV isn't bulletproof - a really stupid feature.  It being a riot van, the windows should be completely bulletproof whilst still allowing occupants to fire from within (notice the circular slots on the door for this very thing).  The front ram should be more effective too.

 

As an alternative, use the Sasquatch.  I have the shocker ram on mine, apocalypse version so windows completely bulletproof.  I charged down that alley, smashing everything and everyone out of the way.  Stopped to grab the bag, then sped off again.  Didn't lose a shred of health.

[IceDree]

@White Shark ooooh must've been fun zapping everyone in that alley.

 

Say, how does the Sasquatch fit in other garages?

 

I completely agree regarding the RCV.

It doesn't - not allowed.

I thought so, but had to be sure.

 

Thanks!

Oh yes, the amount of buzzing and convulsing going on made me laugh. Best part was simply ploughing vehicles out of the way without slowing down lol. 

[GAUNTLET HELLFIRE]

I/E special vehicles (Ramp Buggy Ruiner 2000 etc) aren't allowed in missions are they?

 

I've been using my Stratum and this but there is a problem using them

Crystal Clear Out II and III are good air superiority missions too.

 

And yeah come on Rockstar, I have a Vigilante and Scramjet, let me use my Special Vehicles in missions

Sure, I've got playlists of them, but this week they weren't double payout/RP, neither Coveted, Potshot...etc

[Gridl0k]

Yeah I noticed that. It was fun to get stuck in their little voting screen loop and eg dominate coveted with all these new toys (MKII heavy sniper basically is god mode heh)

[fehssmith]

The contact missions are a great opportunity for me to use vehicles that I have bought and never took out of the garage or vehicles that I would love to use in free mode but I can not, such as voodoo, 9f, Gresley, Xls, Calvacade, obey rocotto among other vehicles which do not have any type of armor or weapons.

But these are not special vehicles, you can use them in contact missions.

 

Hell, your can even use the f*cking broomsticks.

I mean both those vehicles (plus the broomstick) are more lethal than any SV, yet we cannot use SVs. Free the Phantom Wedge!

there are no high payout missions anymore.

all the contact missions pay the same now.

it just depends on the time you need to complete the missions.

[Hécate-II]

Binome Cargobob/Sniper in Diamonds are for Trevor.

That's not true I'm afraid.

 

Low level missions have a lower base pay and that rises based on the rank required.

 Yes, there are still different base payouts depending mission rank(Trash Talk is 81), with multiplier: time, number of peoples. 

 

its very obvious when you compare Trash Talk solo versus Gerald first missions with several peoples. Gerald pays sh*t. 

[kcole4001]

I threw Blow I and II, Out of Court Settlement, and Meth'd Up in as quick filler: easy jobs, the pay is less than the better missions, but it changes up the pace from the more demanding jobs you can do solo.

 Los Santos Connection, Rooftop Rumble are good earners.

Diamonds are for Trevor, Trash Talk, Cleaning the Cathouse, Chopper Tail, are about the same higher mid level pay.

[White Shark]

Sasquatch is officially the most fun vehicle to use on Contact Missions!

 

Crime Scenester?  Why it's my own personal bowling ally!!

 

Mixed Up With Coke?!  Oh dear, your cement trucks have just been flipped over!  KABLAM!!!
