How long does this usually take when doing the elite challenge?

 

Because I like to do an approach using the grappling hook that takes around 8 minutes.

You like to do means you are doing this? 

Hmm... I think I'll need like 10 minutes for that approach.

Yes, it goes like this:

 

You need to have scoped secondary loot, guard uniforms, and a grappling hook at either the airfield (Velum entry) or the North Dock (Longfin entry). Pick up all that stuff, steal a Manchez (always spawns near the solar farm at the airfield, or near the water tower at the North Dock), and drive to the compound (taking the Eastern road and up to the radio tower, same as during the scope mission). The disguise allows you to drive straight through the gate, or you can use rocks to jump over the fence. Use the grappling hook to climb the Northern wall. After stealing the primary loot, exit through the main gate, and you can just take the Manchez from the guard outside because the uniforms still work despite what Pavel says. Then drive to the southwesternmost point of the island, jump off the cliff, and swim South to escape.

I know I may get flak for this but it is a shame that the Drainage Tunnel makes all other Infiltration routes useless. They should have made it so that you have to scope the Tunnel each time to see if a turbine had been turned off, if its off you can enter using the Tunnel. If not then you need to find another route.

 

Pavel even makes a comment about getting sucked into a turbine.

 

At least with disguises they are random.

Nah, you're pretty much on point about the Drainage Tunnel.

 

Not only do you get a direct entry to compound, but also grants you access to the Cutting Torch prep, which makes bolt Cutters COMPLETELY POINTLESS to find. Well, technically you don't need Bolt Cutters if you have Demolition Charges as well, but that's not stealthy. The only "downside" to drainage tunnel is that the only loot you can get solo is the paintings in the office if they spawn so you'll have to pick up additional loot before escaping if you want that elite challenge. And even then you still probably want to pick up secondary loot if you're going for the award, but for that Drainage Tunnel might be good because Gold is worth more if you get a 2nd player for that award farming.

 

I personally prefer guard outfits and I have mapped out a good reliable spawn points for them and base my infiltration on those locations; gives a bit of variety sometimes, but it's all about the Longfin and Velum.

 

At least DCH made you choose different approaches each time even though you'd just do the same 2 over and over so you'd keep the Hard Mode Bonus going.

I play that I always take a full bag of either paintings or cocaine, that makes for different heist every time more or less. I end up using the tunnel around half the time? Less maybe.

Bitch n'moan no 3!

 

Disruption Missions - 10 minutes for a solo player is IMPOSSIBLE! 15 at least is needed to do solo!

 

Unless some of you GODS out there can tell me the secrets I always have to have an assistant to be able to do these missions and I still haven't managed to do all three in a single run yet.

 

Also I figured out it's not the gas mask I am wearing it's the scuba gear breathing mask but I am not equipping the scuba suit at all so still kinda annoying...

I see a lot of people use the guided missiles, but I simply use a Lazer or Hydra for the helicopters and weapons prep, Sparrow and explosive shotgun for armor prep.

 

But as a solo play you shouldn't even need these prep missions if you can stay undetected for the entire heist.

 

Also I heard there is some type of glitch going on, where you start a disruption prep, change session and it will register as completed.

I have started banning myself from using the Drainage Tunnel, quite enjoying disguises and just driving into the Compound at the moment then driving to the Extraction Point with no alarms. Working on doing a no kill run and currently scouting a Watchtower that I can HALO Jump to and silence the Guard before he can react.

Similar to what SummerFreeze said. for the air support one i call in my PV Hydra at Vespucci beach. beach my sub to be as close as possbile. then start the mission and get to my hydra with my helicopter

 

for the armor. just make sure your near the city when you start it, then get in your helicopter, this one ive had no problem. even the last one is an easy free aim with missiles

 

for weapons stay safe, high and use a heavy rifle

I am definitely not a God but I never failed one of them even on first attempt before even knowing what to do.

Im sorry mate, no Rockstar to blame here.

 

Edit: Only done them 3 times or so then realized they are time waste for me (also the time it takes to switch sessions is time.. and its pure waste for me).

 

Spoiler

I was thinking about it... 

I am a God ;-)

fwiw for my money, if you're going to do any "optional prep" missions to support your plan going south, it should be the cutting powder

I park my sub near the pier and land a buzzard on top before starting the mission.  Never failed it once.

 

Something I was thinking,  it wouldve been dope if the secondary targets were implimented into our businesses instead of into our bank account.  What I mean is Gold and Paintings would be sent to one of our CEO warehouses to be sold as Special Cargo.  Coke and Weed would be sent to our MC businesses giving us a full product bar and sold for double money.  This way choosing the secondary targets takes a little more thought than whats the most valuable item.

 

Another thing I wish they wouldve done is make all approaches balanced in comparison to one another so everyone isnt only using the fastest method.  Each entry and escape route should have pros and cons.

I only go for coke and paintings as well, have you experienced only one coke loot yet?

as in, they only spawn one coke that you can get to solo by cutting a gate open? (with other coke spawns behind 2player only doors)

 

happened to me last night, didnt know it could, so I checked every spot for loot and yep, only one coke. had to settle for weed+coke that run.

Thanks for the replies with the Disruption Missions, I have formulated a new plan I am going to test next heist for those as I think I spotted a pattern and location for these.

 

Was looking through the content added with the Heist though and for some reason the Winky Jeep discount hasn't unlocked yet for me.

 

According to the description you have to complete the Gather Intel prep mission as VIP/CEO etc, I have done this six times now, am I missing something here as I should have trade price?

 

EDIT: OK this probably belongs in The Worst of R* Logic thread, the trade price is removed each TIME you complete the heist and is only activated again after you next complete the gather intel mission, why change it for this vehicle since all the other discounts remain active after the heist?

Probably they forgot to include a flag that saves the trade price unlock, and just check your heist progress instead.

I know it's a gameplay mechanic but Lester, Tom and all the others can f*ck off. If I am balls deep in the ocean, so deep that natural light cannot touch me, on a stealth Sub that seemingly has access to every network on the planet and can find anything I should not be getting standard phone calls and texts over civilian networks.

Would you prefer if Pavel Morse code us?

I just want Gay Tony to [email protected]#k off too twice a day he phones me about becoming a night club owner, buy the space you won't regret it etc etc.

 

The fact is I did buy the space and I did regret it, on my other character. Same way with Bryony from Alan Jerome Productions. 

If I don't buy the content just stop harassing me, it's an indication I'm not interested, take the hint and [email protected]#k off.

Same with Warstock emailing me to buy the sub, which I already have.

 

Just something so simple like blocking number of certain contacts

Would make such a big difference.

Calls should not block game controls and we should have a Silent Mode where they send text messages instead of calls.

Only if you have spent a fortune on all businesses. Without a fully stocked supply line its sh*t, a glorified paywall for the MkII with missiles.

Honestly, that'll be good enough for me! Just gotta remember to take some nice pictures of it. Would love a mini copy of it to display somewhere to look back at the good memory of stealing it.

Said before that I would like us to get replicas of the stuff we steal that could appear on our desk in the Captains cabin.
