The Cayo Perico Heist accidentally introduced the most tedious challenge yet

So, this one award was something I was looking to complete in the next week or so.

 

The platinum “Fill Your Bags” award describes the challenge as having a total of $20,000,000 earnings in secondary loot, but instead requires the player to have an egregious $200,000,000.

 

If the player is averaging $400,000 per run of the heist from secondary loot, that would mean you would have to complete the Cayo Perico Heist at least 500 times to get this done.

 

Hardest 800RP grind ever?

It's a bug. Someone at r* pressed "0" one time too many. If you go to SC website, it has normal value of 20mil. But sadly you can't unlock it in-game when you hit it as it was cleared up in another thread like this.

Oops, lol.

 

Luckily the arena killed any sense of progressing/completing any of these awards so I couldn't care less.

 

But it's no surprise R* borked another aspect players enjoy.

I'm quite sure this should be patched in the next DLC...Or some years later on, who can guess when it comes to predicting what R* will do.

Spot on, this value appears to be hardcoded, so a new update is required to adjust it. Funny enough, the arcade games awards can be tuned, while awards like this are hardcoded. May as well, make all awards tuneable to avoid cases like this.

they might fix it with a patch (just like the Vram bug on 1.51 )

Do people actually enjoy grinding these useless awards? I feel like it's just done due to OCD.

I used to, mostly they just came naturally though but since the arena killed any point to it, it's not worth the thought. :)

Huh? they can patch stuff like that without a downloadable update?

Interesting.

They came up with a smart workaround, to basically boost your value to 200M once you hit 20M. That gets the job done and nullifies the need for a title update.

Not really, there's no need for the player to know of how much money he gained after hitting 20M, thus that fix gets the job done and a title update isn't really needed, because it would be a waste of time. There's also the issue that consoles may download the whole update file again, which is sized around 800 MB or 1 GB, so would you prefer to download that whole update file again to fix a meaningless stat value that you really shouldn't care about after achieving the platinum? I don't see that as being lazy.

Nice to see this addressed at least.

 

Would have been nice had it been fixed with a patch and a couple other bits addressed too, like the bleeding ammo bug losses, lol. Ahh well.

Looks like it is safe now going for 20 mil.

They couldn't accidentally add $180m to my bank as well?

Only one way to find out. 😂

I was just joking, hence the emoji. Boosting the value is a clever way of fixing it, it reminded me of that quote for some reason.

Hmm I wonder if getting loot above 200m will continue increasing that stat or it's forever stuck at 200m now. Or maybe they'll do a proper fix with next dlc.

Well, it's not stuck at 200m

Looks like they reset the number I was actually at and turned it into 200m
