Heists - Unlocks at Rank 12

Doomsday Heist - Unlocks at Rank 1

New Gerald Missions - Unlocks at Rank 135

 

Something like that?

Rank required play a part in deciding the mission payout, Rockstar allow anyone to play the new missions while forcing the game to give out the maximum payout by spoofing the rank required as if it was set to 85

I think they were planning to do the same thing with Gerald missions but encountered a bug.

i knew R* would remove the diamonds again.

which is why i logged in yesterday and did the scoping out of the vault a few times.

got the diamonds at like the 4th try.

and now i have i think a finale of diamonds with gruppe sechs approach ready.

 

i wonder....should i keep the finale ready and just wait for a future casino heist event like when they gave 25% more?

bc then the diamonds would be amazing.

To me, if you usually grind casino heists, you shouldn't wait. Bcz, when do you think it we will get dimaonds again? Or 1.5x payouts? I play a lot of heist in the game, pratically everyday, with some friends, and this is what i can tell you:

If we do heists with 2 players, we give 50% to each one of us, if we are 3 players we do 40%+30%+30% and if we are 4 players, we give 25% to each one.

 

I realized that the best approaches are Stealth and Big Con (gruppe sechs), in the Stealth one, you can easily go 2 times to the mini vault (one before going to the vault and the other one after it, bcz the mini vault will refill itself) and Big Con (GS) bcz it's the easiest approach of Big Con. And the best value you can steal is Art, if done with just another player, bcz it can give you 1M for each player, if you play it on hard mode, of course. Which is not that harder, you just have 6 rings to drill (Stealth) and you need to two panel digitals for each door locked inside the vault.

Wow I didn't know the vault refilled itself. Good to know.

[rollschuh2282]

i don´t play it that much.
so i think waiting will be fine.

There is max cap of about $3.7M on the casino heist, before NPC cuts.

 

Diamonds on normal are $3.29M; on hard $3.619M.

 

So if you got diamonds on hard, a 25% bonus would be about $100k extra.

Yes, they updated tunables to add it as one of log in unlocks

The brand is an Irish alcoholic beverage, I guess Rockstar was too late to celebrate St. Patrick's Day?

Mathematically, if you play at least one finale until 1.5x comes, there is no point. The longer you wait, the harder you will escalate your commitment to waiting, so if you don't need the money at all and your strategy is to milk it just for the sake of milking it, wait. Otherwise, any missed run between expected 1.5x will push you to the negative outcome.

I'm milking the hell outta the heist doing 2-3 of my own Casino heists every 24hrs,I find the Setups and Heist itself the most enjoyable thing about Online

me too, I grinded the hell out of it last week. Made like 30 million adding Bunker and NC to it.

[Pedinhuh]

How long are you guys taking to complete all DCH setups and the heist itself?

 

I'm averaging 2.5 hours but I think there's room for improvements

[Shadowfennekin]

That was the beer hat I needed OMG!

 

Hope we get the High Flyer chute to celebrate 4/20!

I tend to complete preps in around 75 minutes to 90 mins at most.

 

Heist itself always very quick.

 

If you have the high roller outfit this saves time and other preps not needed.

I have two beer hats now...but the last time I unlocked one was during crate drops on 360!

We should get the new Gerald missions soon.

I hope so anyways

 

Hopefully they come with a "Hide" marker option like the other dripfed stuff has been recently, it'd suck to have that big white G on the map again. Hated having to see Martin and Simeon icons until the Casino update removed that sh*t

"Raise the alert to six stars, Sir. The player has stepped out of their house twice in the space of twenty four hours without justifying whether their journey was essential" 

"I'm afraid we can't afford six stars, Constable. Budget cuts!" 

"Well how about two stars, and we walk after the player on foot asking them politely to stop?" 

"If you want to fill in that paperwork, Constable, you go right ahead. Just maintain a two metre distance from them, and from each other" 

 

Also: 

Daily congestion charge: £3000 (rounded up by Rockstar mathematicians). 

Daily road tax: £12000 per vehicle, whether on the road or not. £6000 for hybrids, and £2000 for electric / pedal-powered. 

Daily TV licence: £1000, even if you don't watch it.

60-90 minutes for setups, another 20 minutes for finale. I do only required missions plus one or two others.

Would anybody else be interested in a compound bow? It could do critical damage at close range, be used as a stealth weapon for the very few actual stealth scenarios in game, and would obviously be the second slowest weapon to reload after the musket. Of course R* would probably insist on explosive arrows and forced tacticool poo poo. Just an average compound bow, with maybe NV/thermal scope would be great. Yeah it would need new animations but I'm sick of that argument, GTAO alone is a billion dollar game, they can afford to go the distance and then some, it seems like laziness is their biggest roadblock.

 

I really do love the ceramic pistol and Navy revolver, but they just feel like a tease... we need more whole cloth new, non MkII guns. Programmable AR, the cut MG and sniper, pump shotty with wood finish. That's not even getting into melee weapons like a chainsaw, katana, or a classic flamethrower with backpack.

A compound bow makes sense in games where ammo is limited and players have to reuse their arrows, in RDR 2 the bow makes sense because you can save on ammo costs.

 

In GTA there's no need for it because ammo is abundant and relatively cheap for how much money we can make on a daily basis, we can even buy ammo without needing to step into a gun shop.

 

I suppose it could be added for the novelty factor, but there wouldn't be any advantages of using it over using a suppressed sniper rifle or a shotgun.

Maybe they could finally add the damn animals to online so we can use the bow to hunt them?

 

Oh, who am I kidding, they'd have to fix their 2004 stealth mechanics. And no way are they gonna do that.

A bow would be cool but would be pointless in a game where everything can drop you in a blink of an eye

And what would you do with a pointless bow? Shoot Stev- wait, wrong game. I mean, you see flying bikes, futuristic tanks, cars with machine guns on them, a futuristic-minigun-looking thing around you and you come out of the ammunition with.. a bow? really?
