What does High-Priority Case entail? I've done a Titan of a Job twice without finding a helicopter, but you don't really need one. I'm guessing this is similar but it hasn't shown up for me.

Finally able to get enough cash as Michael to buy the 10 million dollar theater. Can't really see how to get more than that except time for the property value.
Does replaying a heist give you more money if you do it better? |

We tried the elevator too but it didn't.
Maybe they patched it? |

Just got done playing online solo. I took another shot at High Priority Case and I managed to beat it.
First attempt, I had to call in a helicopter from Merryweather, kill the pilot and fly it to the top of the Maze bank directly opposite the target. I land on the bank and snipe a few people and fly across. I then realise that the brief case isn't on top of the building. So I go down a ramp that takes me to another few guys to shoot. Repeat this for 4 or 5 floors. BTW, you NEED a helicopter to get there. There is no other way to do this mission. When I finally get the brief case, an enemy helicopter shows up and opens fire. I've no time to get back to my copter so I jump and parachute down. I need to escape but there are no cars in the street, at all. I call my mechanic and he can't deliver right now. I run and run and finally find a parked SUV. Of course, I have to do that "Smash the window, reach in, open the door, hotwire it" animation. I was killed during it. *retry* I have to start at the very beginning of the mission rather than at a checkpoint, which would have helped. I repeat the whole copter/sniping thing but this time I run back up to my copter and fly it to the warehouse. Mission complete. Want to know what the payout is? $20,000? No. $10,000? No. $5000? No. It's $3500. That's it. The mission has a 49% like rating. Less now that I gave it a thumbs down. So, expenses. If you did it my way and didn't already own a sniper etc. $1000 for copter $340 for armour which absorbs one hit despite being "heavy" $13000 approx if you don't already own a sniper rifle $500 for sniper ammo $500 for SMG/Assault Rifle/Pistol ammo $400 approx for parachute ------------------------- Total: $15740 approx for this mission. In no way, shape or form is the mission worth doing. Avoid it. |

Your expenses aren't gospel, though. That assumes your way was the ultimate approach, which isn't the case. And you did it alone, which would alter your expenses. Glad to see the game's making you more aware of your life. Playing with you was like playing with a suicidal model with violent tendencies.

I never really got the "more players = more money" mechanic. Yeah, it's to encourage people to play togethor but, the more people on a mission, the easier it tends to be. So, wouldn't it make sense if the solo player got more because they had a tougher job? Flattery will get you nowhere, Mr Kalyx. |

I've never had a problem getting a helicopter for free, maybe had to go back and forth till it spawned but always get one eventually.

Occasionally they show up when some guy lands one randomly, but you can be waiting a long time. I completed the mission once at a lower level when some other guy invited me, we'd all went to different parts of the map where helicopters normally are and waited for a while until one appeared but it took fucking ages. The mission is quite hard when you do get up there as well because it's almost impossible not to get shot when coming down the ramps to different floors due to the awful cover system. The point is that you need a helicopter to do the mission, it's set up so a helicopter is a basic requirement, so why no fucking helicopters around to hand every time? This mission appears at a level before helicopter pick-ups are available (I haven't unlocked them yet) too.
The shooting and cover system online is one of the most infuriating devices ever by the way. |

I ran into my first glitch last night. I was prepping the 3rd heist as trevor, trying to figure out where to place the get away car and my phone got stuck in my hand. No matter what I did, I couldn't put it up, change characters or anything. Dunno how much I lost turning the game off but hopefully it isn't too bad cause ive been pretty good about frequent saves

The marina is always my go-to place for a helicopter. Every time I go there, there's one either already there or in the process of landing.

So you don't actually have any issues not playing with us since you're saving $60 a year, right? Okay then, don't come harping about where the party is. Me, Fignuts, and RoXer drive perfectly fine.

Got a bounty kill tonight with Roxer flying the chopper. Bounty was worth $9000, but I had to pay around $9900 for blowing up the prick's car. Why is blowing up cars such a big deal?

As far as I can tell, airstrips, much like everything else in this, aren't available yet. I think planes/helicopters will spawn to the usual airport/helipad spots and which plane or chopper is dependant on what level you are.

Experienced my first "crate drop". Wasn't expecting AI resistance. All I got was some cash and a little RP boost but those seem like a good idea.

Decent session tonight.
*Got into an off-road race, came in 6th out of 8. *Met up with Razz randomly while he was involved in a gang war. Lended a hand, first gang war I've survived so far. *Assisted with a Hold-Up, Razz pistol-whipped me on accident. lol *We chased down a bounty, Well he did. I took a wrong turn and he got there first. Shared the loot though. *We went after another but my car was almost undriveable, so I dropped out of the chase to get it fixed. That was a $7,000 bounty. *Got into a race randomly that had 13 people in it, came in 4th. Biggest race I've ever been in and it was cool. Got put in a new session for the race, so lost Razz. Almost have enough banked for an apartment now. |

I didn't know that if you accidentally kill yourself while a bounty is on your head, you respawn with it still in effect. I was chasing down a bounty and he got himself killed, so I thought that was it. I then noticed that it was still on when he respawned...was alot of effort for just a $1,000.

I find bounties fun for the chase, the hunt and the execution. The money doesn't really matter.
They need to respawn players far apart after a 1 on 2 deathmatch. Did it never occur to them that the first thing the loser will do is open fire on the winner back in freeroam? |
