I think that they have expanded the equipment about as far as they can go and weapons are also quite expansive. However, there are still many more things out there to build around for heist action.
The third heist involves Merryweather pretty heavily. One of the last two is a bank heist, maybe the 4th. There's been a bank interior that we've been able to enter for close to a year now.

As for your video, it took my crew 5 attempts to finish the prison break finale, and I was the only one in my group that didn't die (I was the pilot). Everyone else failed at least once. In the one we completed, it was my turn to fail. My plane got hit hard, was smoking and on fire. But I landed, picked up the crew, took off, and somehow managed to get the plane back in the air and away from the enemies. It was wild, crazy and epic!

EDIT: There was a new patch released today to improve stability in heists. Hopefully it works.

Yep, it's like a 6 year engagement. The hope is there that it will happen but it will likely not.

Didnt for me. Disconnected right at the end of a final setup mission. It was with a bunch of randoms so I bet they were pissed. Frustrating as hell. I waited 15 minutes to get a 4th guy.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V

I'm hoping that in a future patch they can add a few MORE menus to go through to equip a new body armor while you are getting lit the hell up in a shootout.
And speaking of body armors, I don't understand why in the lobby before missions you can stock up an any type of ammo, but can only buy 1 body armor? Why can't you max out those as well on that screen?

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V

From the "How the fuck does this happen?" file:





These are images taken yesterday outside the apartment of my crewmate (he's the one in white). We had a hell of a time getting the second part of the 4th heist going (and in the end it failed to start every time). This is what awaited us outside after the first failed attempt and stayed there for hours despite numerous reboots of the game.

I agree 100%. There should be a hot button to throw on another set of body armor. Ridiculous that you have to hide from gunshots and go through 4 or 5 steps to get to one and then select the one you want. I also think that the shootouts and number of people and shit you blow up are a bit overkill. You basically destroy half the town to heist less than a million dollars in payout. The missions are still quite fun but damn if the driving is not a time filler. It took us from 12:30 this morning until 4:30 am to get through the 3rd heist.

What exactly is going on there with your post, Scott? You have the exact same thing posted as the bread to my post as the meat.

Did some of the Xmas content get left behind there, or something?!

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V

I'm finding it tough to get 4 people together to play an entire heist.

If I could find a fourth, our crew might be able to stop replaying the Fleeca job repeatedly. I just don't really trust the randomly invited people.

I posted, then went and did other things.

A little bit later, I went back to that tab and for some reason it was still on the page waiting to be posted (I assume I hit back at some point and forgot). So I posted again, thinking I hadn't done it the first time.

It seemed like everybody in that apartment building threw out their XMas trees at the same time...in March no less.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V

Can I jump into these heists if I haven't played any of the rest of the game or do I need to level up/earn cash/guns and shit before I can do them?

You've got it, I will send one your way the next time that I am on. I probably won't be able to get in a solid session until Monday or Tuesday night, anyway, so no problem on the today thing.

You would just need to create your character for GTA Online (or characters), complete the tutorial phase, then get to level 12. Although the level 12 requirement might just be to host, you may be able to join up if a heist leader is sending out invites.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V

If anyone that wants to add me for PS4 then send me an invite. Al, I definitely want to heist with you sometime. I have finished the first three heists and I'm looking forward to starting the 4th one. I sure hope they continue to develop heists moving forward. Hell, I would be willing to pay a few bucks for new ones if it didn't actually further limit our pool of available and reliable players.

After playing the few I have, I would definitely be willing to pay for some more of these.

People spent almost two years bitching about heists and then its almost impossible to find enough people. Frustrating.


And damn the Insurgent is a beast. Love that thing.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V

Good good. I saw Scott on PS3, I know Cruz and Sauce play on PS3, so I was worried I was the only one dumb enough to upgrade.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V

No chance, man, some of us others were silly enough to trade in our PS3 copy and move to the current generation version.

If you ever see me on, feel free to jump into the session. The more of us, the merrier.
