The Heist Challenge Continues: The End is Nigh (or is it?) with Bonuses on Act III of The Doomsday Heist

Last week, El Rubio's private island in the Caribbean was the target for pretty much everybody you can think of. Rank-and-file criminals, the richest perpetrators in Los Santos, hell, even executives. Nothing that Juan Strickler isn't already used to but keeps getting tricked by! All this, motivated by the powers that be offering a challenge to everyone in the scene of crime - the Heist Challenge!

This week, the ante is upped with the involvement of something perhaps a little bit more modern and topical... Avon Hertz is back (does he own Bleeter here?), alongside his Cliffford AI, which, let's be honest - that poor thing is insufficient even to generate anything - regardless, they are a danger again, and we all must collectively stop the madness with bonuses on Act III of The Doomsday Heist. One thing worse than all of us being taken over by pseudo-sentient military machines overriding an actual friendly AI, is a tech bro having a malicious AI that owns the world and isn't even contributing to space launches, social evolution, or vehicle sustainability!

Until 20th November:

 

• 2x GTA$ and RP on The Doomsday Scenario
• Cliffford Hoodie earned by completing the Weekly Challenge described at the bottom

Ways to Let the World Just End: Bonuses on Taxi Work, Bunker Series and Hunting Pack

Willing to let a pseudo-intellectual "AI" take over the world and potentially your sentience? Had enough of all the crap in the world and you don't even care? Do you wanna stop Avon AND show him the world can go on without his existence by doing side-jobs and using bunkers for a pastime? You can do so amidst the madness!

Whether you're transporting passengers to the airport so they can get the hell out of Los Santos, or to the rehab centre in Vinewood Hills, Taxi Work is on an honest 2x bonus this week. Speaking of getting the hell out, there's one way one can use bunkers if The Doomsday Scenario is averted - that's right, cause your own mini-doomsday inside all types of bunkers with bonuses on the Bunker Series of Adversary Modes.

Plus, take it back to the classics by driving a vehicle whose speed you need to maintain... or you explode. Not by nukes, but by bombs planted on your truck, in Hunting Pack, also on a bonus.

As such:

• 2x GTA$ and RP on the Bunker Series
• 2x GTA$ and RP on Taxi Work
• 2x GTA$ and RP on the Hunting Pack Adversary Mode

Miscellaneous

Salvage Yard Vehicles & Robberies

Each week, Jamal and Yusuf Amir find some brand-new vehicles for you to source for your Chop Shop, and for Jamal to perhaps plaster all over Snapmatic and other social media. This week, check out the following propositions

• The Gangbanger Robbery: Canis Kamacho

• The McTony Robbery: Vapid Dominator GT

• The Podium Robbery: Benefactor LM87

 

The Diamond Casino & Resort Lucky Wheel

What does it take to get your most addicted gamblers out of The Diamond? Aliens? The big earthquake? A doomsday scenario? At this point, nothing at all, and this applies to all the hardworking Diamond Casino & Resort staff who have to endure the whole thing year-round! From our favourite Felipe (donate to his fundraiser) to the one guard who keeps having to get jaw surgery due to being knocked out when the vault is robbed (and will be even more soon) and beyond. Speaking of... The recent wave of heists has gotten the Amirs looking into that one Podium storage garage again, and because nobody ever learns about security, Felipe will have a few more things to worry about!

This doesn't even limit what goes up on that Lucky Wheel podium however, and neither does a potential doomsday scenario - it's not like Avon Hertz even shares his riches with The Diamond Casino & Resort.

Japanese influence is right back on that Podium, and interested tuner-heads who want to bother coming out of the LS Car Meet can visit The Diamond, pray to any deities they believe in, perform any usual rituals, spin the Lucky Wheel and potentially win a Dinka Kanjo SJ.

 

LS Car Meet Prize Ride

As a big wave of robberies goes on outside, an additional danger... renders everyone inside the Car Meet unfazed. They've been through this before, time and time again, and their big warehouse-shaped shrine hasn't been endangered in any way. Much like The Diamond, it's not like Avon Hertz will even care to penetrate the ranks of the LS Car Meet.

"Penetrate, penetrate"... ah, yes. No, not quite what you're thinking, regardless of what you're thinking - I'm merely looking at the Slamtruck and trying to remember the name of the newest supercar shipment. If you want to, ahem, "penetrate" into its driver's seat, all you have to do is be okay at racing. You can do top 5, right?

Place Top 5 in the LS Car Meet Series for 3 days in a row to earn the Ocelot Penetrator.

 

For testing and/or buying this week:

• Dinka Jester (R)
• Western Cliffhanger (R)
• Invetero Coquette (R)

 

This week, Hao has something that some purists may scoff at... but without reason. It's not one made by Avon Hertz' company, and it is genuinely fast. It's time to give the electrics a chance, because even Hao does, and he's tuning up one by Bravado that'll be right up a lot of folks' alley.

Head on over to his desk on Xbox Series or PlayStation 5 and buy, test or upgrade the Bravado Buffalo EVX HSW.

2x on Doomsday? Would that be specifically act 3 heist? or would this 2x also be on The Bogdan Problem Heist?

It indeed says so multiple times in OP  It's the Act III finale/The Doomsday Scenario.

[Moonshine Wagon Fan]

Double money on taxi driving.  Hmmmm....maybe I might take out my yellow car to make some dough.

 

 

[MRNickyMasterFTW]

in Heist challenge 2022 week 1

we can unlock Clifford Varsity and Clifford Hoodie at the same time via completing The Bogdan Problem and the Doomsday Scenario, this year that varsity not returned and only The Doomsday Scenario get bonus, affected by Selected Finale, we still have a chance to get the Diamond and all OG Heists bonused

[nb2010]

Awful week. I can still grind cayo to help with that pretend 20 trillion target right?

 

Also, is the gun van solely for new players as I can't see many seasoned players not owning every single weapon in the game even if they have binned off the ones they don't use.

 

Taxi work, my strat for easing the boredom is to keep the taxi in mint condition.

One ding and I quit.

 

(Although driving around slowly and safely is very boring itself)

Guess I could put some miles on my souped-up Broadway taxi whenever I need a break from committing crimes, lol. Other than that, it's an L week for me. Hopefully next week will have some better bonuses for solo players.

Doomsday really should have been a story mode dlc.

[Barrtek]

[Eryphos]

Probably asked about a billion times but I get irrelevant results when I tried searching. Is a weekly vehicle discount still applied to the base price of a car if I buy it from another player or is it only from the websites? Was thinking of buying the Vorschlaghammer from someone and wondering if I'd still get the 30% by doing it this week.

I enjoy Doomsday when it's with friends/competent team, I don't think I have ever done it with randoms, I am not planning on doing it right now either.

Does anyone know if you get the hoodie if you participate in the heist or do you have to host?

[Barrtek]

After payout changes in summer 2022, heist on hard gives 2,3 mln right? So on double money it should be 4.6?
Exactly, I don't want to cause confusion but I remember that once when this heist was on more money event we didn't get 4 million in the group but slightly over 3, I honestly don't remember if I set something wrong in heist screen or if the game scales this payout from a different value? If someone finished this heist in the last 24 hours, please reply, I would be grateful how it works now
