Grand Theft Auto 5

[Imperial isa]

So are heists happening or not now ?

[Tiami]

R* will let us know. Be patient.

[Wisconsin9]

What I'm wondering is how they're going to keep heists from completely flooding the economy. If they're anything like they were in singleplayer, they're going to be giving people probably at least a million bucks each run. Now add in difficulty bonus and events, and grinding is going to let people rack up tens of millions like *snaps fingers* that.

The money will certainly be nice; however, I don't think heists should be worth any more than 500,000. At least let us work harder for the money.

Something tells me we're going to get screwed over with the payouts. I really hope not.
Ideally, I think after factoring in splitting up the money between players (I assume that's how it would work), it should come out to no less than 250k, and no more than 550k; seems like a reasonable payout. And maybe force players to wait before doing another heist so they can't just spam them and rack up millions in a matter of hours.

Yeah, I'd be very surprised if we aren't forced to wait for a certain amount of time before starting another heist. I agree with you on payments, though I'd put the lowest at 150K as there's bound to be simple, quicker heists that do not require much preparation.

[Corrian]

I need that headset by then!

Maybe heave R* limit to 1-5 heist a day, or a heist every 1-2 hours; I don't want to have an unlimited amount of heists, as that would take the fun of GTA away, and then heists would become considerably boring. There should definitely be a limit so heists can stay interesting.

[Everett Ruess]

I doubt they're going to overdo it with the heist rewards. They're not just at risk of screwing over the ingame economy, they're at risk of taking away their own profits (the GTA$ cards).

Yeah, it would quickly become nothing but a grindfest if it wasn't limited. A limit gives it longer interest. As far as Rockstar's concerned though, the main reason for doing so is to stop heists being too profitable; they don't want it to affect cash card sales.

[Mushet]

Yeah and you'll probably get an explanation like you need to wait for the heat to die down to perform another heist.

[Wind in the Willows]

GTA 5 has become boring now.

[Tiami]

Not when you're 'fist-fighting' with a crew mate…. Mag.

And sorry, I needed to get off. Long day tomorrow. Another day Mag?

[Wisconsin9]

Trolled around in a fighter for a bit, eventually crashed. Did a one v one dm with one of the guys (slaughtered him 5 - 0) then proceeded to win a straight-up fight against five people.

Not really...

I'd probably get my ass kicked...

What level are you at? 50-something?

[-Arabiyyah-]

Online hiests will prob be very hard and require you to be a certain level or somthing.

[Corrian]

What level are you at? 50-something?

Yeah. I've been focusing on other things lately so I've really fallen behind on levels from you all. I was keeping up with you guys for a while....

I got nothing against them being hard. I HOPE they're hard. But I hope you don't need to be a certain level...

I think once every in-game week sounds reasonable.
Now, let's see if I can get an exact number:
48 minutes is a 24 hour in-game day, so multiply 48 by 7... that's 336 minutes, which according to Google is 5.6 hours. I think I did all of that right...
Yeah, I think that's reasonable; nice balance between in-game realism and relatively short real-life time, but long enough to keep people from spamming the heists.

I need that headset by then!

I need to figure out how to keep mine from breaking off...the left earcup cracked where it attaches to the headband (which apparently is a common problem with my particular headset because of its weird design..wish I knew that before I got it). For all I know, the mic may not even be working (it's a built-in mic, on the side that cracked).

Not when you're 'fist-fighting' with a crew mate…. Mag.

And sorry, I needed to get off. Long day tomorrow. Another day Mag?

You know, I was actually talking about Mushet's rooftop fistfight DM when I suggested that...but freemode works too.

No problem. Let's stick with fists next time though; I'm trying to build up my strength stat.

I got nothing against them being hard. I HOPE they're hard. But I hope you don't need to be a certain level...

Agreed. Though, I'd like to see a level 25 minimum; last thing I want is to do a heist with a player with less machinery and/or experience.

[Frideland]

I need trade in my Vapid Bullet for another supercar. The cursed thing's top speed is too low and I inevitably get passed on the long straight shots. Any suggestions, gentlemen?

I haven't actually got any supers, but every time I see this question asked the general consensus is entity, at least if you're looking for optimal performance in racing. However, Zentorno looks to be a close second, and it has no rear window so you can't be shot from behind.

[Corrian]

That's fine. I just don't want no level 75 restrictions

And on the subject of headsets, the one my dad was thinking about getting from work is pretty simple. Just like an earpiece one. Not really what I want in the long run (I'd prefer headphones with a mouth piece), but eh, it works.

That's if I can get it to work period...Since my microphone stuff seems to be weird on that game.

Think that why they have not given us the Online stock market for the fear of flooding the economy

I'd also say Entity (pretty hard to shot someone in an Entity from behind too). I don't know what the Zentorno is

I kinda forgot about the existence of the Online stock market...Wonder if they'll try to do something with that eventually...
