Is the Gang Termination Contract bugged?


The Gator

Recommended Posts

I started a Gang Termination under Security Contracts, the mission was to eliminate a bunch of Lost MC at the abandoned motel in Sandy Shores.

 

I killed everyone there, destroyed every vehicle but the game said there was still 1 MC Captain left. I stuck around until a 2:50 timer began counting down and it marked the mission failed.

@The Gator - the Captains don't show up on your radar till you're right on top of them, and one of them at least is inside the motel so you have to go in after him. If the screen says there's one left, then he's in there somewhere.

 

That said, I had a Liquidize Assets gig where I was destroying boxes of counterfeit cash. I thought I'd be clever & use my Up'n'Atomizer instead of wasting explosives - worked on a couple, but didn't work on the ones that were in car trunks,  so the cars got swatted away & the boxes just hung in mid-air, completely indestructible. The only way out of it was to close the game.

 

So, yeah, while I haven't had any issues with the Gang Elimination gigs specifically, there are definitely bugs in the new DLC.

Good to know, thank you.

 

Fwiw, I went around the motel about 5 times, checking ground, top floor, every single room and even both rooftops. The last Captain never showed up for me. 
 

I even checked along the outskirts of the red circle and everywhere within the motel area.

I also experienced this exact issue twice - once at the abandoned motel and once on a cargo ship in the harbor. Both times, the last dude didn’t show up. I searched the surrounding area with no luck. Will just do the other types of contracts until this bug is fixed.

The last Capitan is in the abandoned pool house by the pool, not in the motel buildings. It took me a while to find him.

 

Unlike other older assassination missions, the target have to be in your line of sight for him or her to show up on the map. I don't know whether it was designed that way or just a bug, but that was my experience with the mission.

I checked there too. There were about 4-5 enemies in there that I had already killed, shot them all again a bunch of times and nothing.

Yeah that's what it seemed like.

Thermal scope 👍🏻

 

Gonna try that next time just to make sure. Don't know why I didn't do so in the moment.

Glad to know it's not just me but this is very annoying. Thank you for sharing.

Regular bullets destroy the boxes of cash. A few shots from an assault rifle. Or a single shot from an assault shotgun if you're close.

Gang elimination missions being broken is really getting f*cking annoying when I sweep the entire area with a helicopter killing anything that you can lock onto then sweep every foot of the circle on foot with thermal detecting nothing alive yet it still says one captain remaining so I get a Lazer with thermal vision still no lifeforms that’s getting pretty old fast. This is happened both at the cargo ship & the little farm up in the mountain. I like the DLC but this is getting annoying extremely fast.

Done a ton of these missions in every location, no problem. Decided to do one today. Train yard, done before, usually use my Khanjali. Game forgot to spawn 3 of them. Checked over with my thermal, nothing. Had to switch sessions to end it. These missions simply don't work sometimes. I'll be avoiding them in the future.

Something, something, "the gameplay aspect of this update was mostly rushed and untested, the music and A-listers were the focus" something, something...

I had it bugged too once, i even used thermal vision goggles, but it didn't help to find the last leader of them. It was north in the map, close to that gas station that is closest to paleto bay. There was a weed farm. I couldn't find the last one no matter what, probably stuck underground somewhere or something. I saw a heat signature that always was gone again, after i got to close to it. Had to leave the session, because the mission has no timelimit ugh.

Missions do have a time limit. Had the train one with a missing leader. It will eventually give you a five minute timer.

I've done some testing and figured out what the/a problem might be: Indirect kills don't count. So if you use the Atomizer to shoot one of the targets up in the air, and he dies from the fall, it won't count as a kill. If you use a sticky bomb to set the floor on fire, and the target dies from the fire, it doesn't count. If you use a vehicle to push another vehicle on top of a target to kill him, it doesn't count. The problem is then that they still die, so you can't complete the mission.

That could explain it for me. I was shooting them with Buzzard rockets. A secondary explosion or something else indirect could have killed one of the targets.

I would have liked it to just point out where the Captains are after a while, sorry, not sorry I don't have all day to search for one NPC.

Just make the excuse that Imani is pinging their phones and sending the real time locations to you.

Yeah I had it at the sawmill too.
 

Coincidentally though, it was the first time I’d used a buzzard for one of these (ain’t nobody got time to drive to the sawmill). I wonder if killing them from beyond a certain range causes them not to count.

I got this bug at the Vagos train station. I saw the "You killed captain" four times yet the fourth didn't trigger, ran around the whole place and everyone was dead! Look in every train cart, double checked them and eventually just changed sessions rather than wait out the timer

It's got to be either killing them while too far away doesn't count or killing them with a secondary explosion or fire doesn't count. Or maybe both? When I couldn't find my guy I did notice there was something weird in one of the sheds across the street from the sawmill. It has been a week so I can't remember if it was a body floating in the air against a stack of pallets or something else, like a burnt out ATV. What I do remember is that the next time I played the mission I found a lieutenant in the exact same location. So I'm sure I "killed" the guy and it just didn't register as a kill. I don't think the missing guys spawn under the map or something strange like that. I was using a buzzard at first and I'm not sure if I shot at that area while far away or not. Since it is by the road, any number of vehicle explosions or fire could have "killed" him too.

 

ETA:

Does anyone know what happens if someone not in your org kills a target? Does that count as a kill? Should be easy to test with a friend. Is it different with guns or bombs? What if they hit the location with an orbital laser?

Encountered my first bug earlier with the vagos one at the train yard, really annoying as I’ve done it previously with no issue

is not bugged. i thought sometimes does but you just need to search better.

 

one time in the sawmill i did 3 rounds and nothing come out until i just go between 2  trash and he was there and now he show up in the minimap.  

 

so they are not bugged, they just hide in a trash spot and if you not go super near they dont even move.

Just had the bug at the ship for the first time. So, that's four locations that have bugged out (for me, at one time or another) on the last man. Searched the ship, and surrounding area thoroughly, even scanned the water with a thermal scope (in case he'd fallen).

 

gg R*. At least the Sam Houser got to meet Dre, which is the most important thing.
