GTAO Event (5th Dec 2024) - Become a Criminal Catching Criminals with Bonuses on Standard Bounty Targets and Bail Office Staff Income, New Community Series & More!

[Spider-Vice]

This half-week and until 9th December, the day before Jodi Marshall takes over your criminally busy schedule in Agents of Sabotage, it's time to do a different kind of heist: go back to Maude Eccles and help her remove criminal scum off the streets with bonuses on Standard Bounty Targets, your Bail Office employees bring in twice the cash, plus a brand-new Winter-themed Community Series, the return of the Juggernaut Adversary Mode, and more!

What to do After a Week of Crime? Catch Criminals! Bonuses on Bounty Targets and Extra Bail Office Income

For the past month, there's been only one thing on your mind. Well, maybe several. Cash, a panther statue, more cash, perhaps some drugs, avoiding doomsday, and the contents of the vault at The Diamond Casino. Never-ending cash for those who partook, but it seems like, potentially, it was not quite enough to beat that Heist Challenge! Regardless, we've all been very naughty criminals this week, but as if Los Santos even cares about that anymore, it's what they have to deal with every day.

There seems to be one limit for the LSPD however, and that's low-end criminals making the streets of Los Santos an, allegedly, "living hell" - and it's up to you, your crew and Maude and Jenette Eccles to solve that. Channel your Wild West ancestors and enjoy bonuses on Bail Office Standard Targets, and a dose of generosity for all your Bail Office Staff. Tell your staff to go get 'em and they'll bring double the moolah back.

It's perhaps a good thing to prepare for what's coming next week, as you may see yourself as the owner of Lester's legendary garment factory... and an FIB presence.

As such:

 

• 2x GTA$ and RP on Bail Office Standard Targets
• 2x GTA$ on Bail Office Staff Income

No additional info was given on the Heist Challenge, but it is expected that criminals across Los Santos have failed to reach the big goal that the powers that be set on everyone! As long as the cash is in your coffers, that's what matters!

Community Series Returns with Winter-Themed Jobs, plus Juggernaut is Back... No, Not in That Way

You may think that the Holidays came early because of a month of robberies... but there's no Holidays like the real Holidays in Los Santos! Snow is arriving soon in what is now 11 years of freak climate change related snow events, Christmas decorations will be put up all around the city, the Christmas Truck everyone loves will be circling the map... ahh, good old Winter Los Santos.

But that's not happening just yet - instead, the Community Series will be brought back with some new activities that will make the most out of the cooling weather, and Juggernaut is back! No, Avon Hertz hasn't tried to take over this post yet with his silly AI which gets confused at the simplest of paradoxes, rather, YOU may have the chance of getting into one of those fancy high-tech suits and wreck your friends or foes in the Juggernaut Adversary Mode, returning this half-week.

 

• 3x GTA$ and RP on the new Community Series
• The Juggernaut Adversary Mode returns

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 Cargo Ship Robbery: Överflöd Tyrant

• The Podium Robbery: Declasse Mamba

• The Duggan Robbery: Karin Previon

 

The Diamond Casino & Resort Lucky Wheel

Where to even start here? The past week has seen most of Los Santos repeatedly blast through The Diamond's vault and steal everything they had in there, which for the past week has all been diamonds! Record amounts of deaths on the job, record amounts of therapy for PTSD, and record amounts of security training to not let any rando take a Gruppe Sechs outfit and just burst through. Felipe, our dearest valet, perseveres, but needs fundraiser money more than ever. Everyone declined to comment, as the focus right now is to make sure not many people on the casino floor notice what's going on... well... sometimes. And that Podium is once again a target for the Amirs and... ah well.

The Lucky Wheel never stops however, and this half-week it features a reward that harks back to 1992 San Andreas. Pray to any applicable deities, perform your usual rituals and spin the Lucky Wheel for a chance to win the Declasse Tahoma Coupé.

 

Los Santos Car Meet Prize Ride

With business as usual at the Car Meet, nobody has noticed any heists going on outside. Perhaps a bit of an increased attendance by potential robbers needing a boost to their escape tuners, but all else is business as usual. The Slamtruck this week is receiving something that perhaps even exceeds the speed thresholds of most of the tuners there, but is an equally welcome vehicle that can be yours if you're good enough at racing! No protests:

Win in the LS Car Meet Series for 3 days in a row to win the Överflöd Autarch.

Yep, we have failed. 

 

No free NOOSE outfit and Police boat for us.

 

Good job everyone!

But the real question is: Did we failed the heist challenges yet?

No info on that, but I'd assume so.

[Robin1996ify]

I guess so.

L week. Well, gonna thieve cars for salvage yard at least.

Edited December 4, 2024 by maxon1196

[44Orca]

Still haven't got to complete them sadly, the players didn't have time yet, but I did play some of the other ones. Is there a chance they give us some more time?

Will play the adversary mode for now, only have played that one once, it's similar to the bunker series one which I like. Nevermind this one is different, haven't played it before.

Edited December 4, 2024 by 44Orca

[The-Ghost]

I was truly hoping they'll extend the bonuses on heists but I guess not.

Also, this is one really weak event "week".

[GTA Hurricane]

I'm glad this is a short event week because the bonuses suck. Too bad that Most Wanted bounties aren't included in the double money bonus.

 

Oh well, at least it gives me a chance to take a breather before the new update hits.

[Salty_Yote aka SeaWallTx]

We already have the livery, right?

 

I mean I'll double check before i buy it.

 

Other than that, seems like a week for winter golfing 

Lol

For the 600th time, please avoid posting random self-promo videos in random non-video threads.

[Jason Frost]

We were so close from getting it, yet so far away...

 

[Moonshine Wagon Fan]

Well, I didn't do bounty hunting in a while, so I will be back catching criminals tomorrow.

 

[Zak Ras]

They'll be leaving the Heist Challenge results down to the moment the tunables are updated.

 

Even if we legit fall short of $20t they'll conjure something, either:

1. They already slipped up on their socials, saying the NOOSE Outfit & Pac Standard jacket would be mere participation prizes when they revealed the Predator. That was last Wednesday, less than a day before 100% Diamonds in the Casino was announced.
2. They'll lie.

Still need the Entity XF, and 3 Adversary Modes I've yet to play. Speaking of which, given the theme of this update walking the line between Government Agent & Mercenary; what would be fitting on the Adversary Mode front, is for a bunch of modes that fit that theme to be regular throughout the next few months, but only 1 or 2 maps from each one every week or two. Less of the modes that are built around Stunt Track pieces, and more the likes that you could believe were PvP Missions in-universe, like the "Assault On..." modes;

 

• Extraction
• Entourage
• Dawn Raid
• Hardest Target
• Power Mad
• Rhino Hunt

Let them lie and give US this prize. It is ,after all,quite a sucess to get 15 trillion so far.

Cool, thanks for the info

Yea i have every piece of content released, well i think there is those Halloween Twitch shirts. I participated in the stupid twitch thing but didn't win a shirt, none of the 7. Unless theyve given them out at other times, then im missing those. I even got the robot tee that was for transferring to PC, i got it last Christmas.

 

Sorry about rambling, lol, but yea, if they gave it out, i got it, lol.

These small weeks are always a bit more "filler", nothing surprising there.

[Retrodeadmetal]

Come on rockstar Im wanting the tailgater for ages now and yet another week it's not at the dealership 

[Robin1996ify]

I thought the it's the Paragon R that was discounted (and being able to purchase for this week), but apparently it was the Paragon S!

 

Ain't gonna complain tho, i would buy the "S" for my 2nd char in "purple sector" paintjob.

The Paragon R is a beautiful car.  I need to buy the S now.

I mean, who doesn't want discounted Paragon S? especially since it's full price was 2 million.

 

[kjahcleveland]

Rough event lol I really can’t stand the bounty business. After completing all the awards and career progress I never do them anymore. 

[dreZmoL]

I was really hoping they would extend this until Tuesday.

Spoiler

I see T2 selling the police boat at 30% off. XD

 

[sutalu]

Is it worth buying out the staff who generate money/income for the bail office? They are very expensive.

Understandable. It's extremely repetitive.

If you log in everyday to send them to work then yes. If you login once a week, it's gonna take forever for you to make that money back. 

[WinterFrosty86]

Them revealing the Heist challenge reward as a fking boat may have directly contributed to this failure. I myself know of atleast 3 people who stopped participating in the challenge when they saw it...

We probably weren't gonna hit it regardless lol. People were already doubting it far before the Predator announcement, also remember that most people actually being disappointed are the hardcore fanbase in forums like ours.

 

Again, all fun and games at the end of the day with stuff like these challenges.

[MRNickyMasterFTW]

how about the permitted rewards for Heist challenge? not given after the update?
