My team usually give me my weapon of choice when I am the prisoner. I go for the Special Carbine.

The guy who gives the gun doesn't lose it after the session ends.

 

[ApexDrift123]

@STI9 Has it ever happened to you ? Just so I know it's kinda normal ?

 

[Dennisch]

To be fair, the other guy bong-something was useless

The part where the prisoner was underneath the wing of the plane was quite annoying too.

 

[ApexDrift123]

Underneath the wing ?

 

[Dennisch]

Underneath the wing ?

Yeah I clipped him moving the plane and he just stayed on the ground because apparently the wing was above him.

And the first time the random didn't board the plane causing me to be shot by the coppers.

And I destroyed the Velum flying towards the airstrip because I wasn't paying attention.

And stealing the car from the boat, I was with a lvl 7 random who kept dying on me while driving away from the boat.

Etc. Etc.

Worst. Heist. Ever.

I thought he was dead, I was raging hard because that was all the fault of the 4th member, bong. 1st time we failed it was because he stood outside the plane shooting the police until he died, second time we failed it was because of the way he parked the prison van

 

[ApexDrift123]

Oh . Did you complete it in the end ?

The thing is @Dennisch , r* need to sort out where we respawn after it fails , because we were just about there when we failed and had to start again at that scrapyard bit agin . So annoying .

 

[Dennisch]

But on the bright side.

I have now 12 Sentinels. 4 purple and 8 Yellow. And I already sold a couple of them today.

That reminds me.

I remember seeing a custom Gremlin/Pacer thingy, think it's called a Rhapsody. Do they exist online?

 

[ApexDrift123]

Yeah I have one with white wall tyres haha

It's pretty nimble actually .

Anyway , this isn't mine but it is identical to it , but who like my new vigero ? Mine is carbon black with white walls .

 

[STI9]

Yeah, you buy it from southern san andreas autos for 140k. Mine looks like the Mirth mobile.

If you have one that DOESN'T look like the Mirth Mobile, you're doing it wrong.

 

[Sage Ages]

In my experience its because the person driving the prison van hits the plane or while the pilot is waiting on everyone boarding he gets shot and dies. Could blame the demo for rubbish protection but I think thats unfair.

Correction: Why does the Velum pilot always mess up before anyone leaves the prison?

Out of all planes , why the velum , if anything , the vestra or even a shamal would have been the best choice

Because it's the easiest plane to fly. The Cuban and the Vestra are too small to carry everyone and everything else is either too slow, too fast, or too big.

 

[xXKingJoshXx]

TFW 4 bodyguards

 

[ApexDrift123]

You know you can make the Phoenix look like Richard Petty's Plymouth SuperBird ?

The vestra would be the perfect choice , small ? Yes . Fast ? Very . big ? No . Can fit four people ? Yes .

That is something I have yet to see. Evading the jets is way to easy.

 

[ApexDrift123]

Are they even scripted to hit ?

 

[ApexDrift123]

Correction: Why does the Velum pilot always mess up before anyone leaves the prison?

Because they probably get bored flying in circles so they pull of some aerobatic manoeuvres , crashing them into the Alamo sea . Usually . If it's not Fort Zancudo like what happened on a one my friend done about 4 months back

 

[Dennisch]

Yeah If you fly in a straight line away from them they will lock on to you, but a quick dive and turn gets rid of that pretty quick. I have only had one lock so far.

Edit.

I have had it one time flying the plane back with everyone on board that it just flipped upside-down and I couldn't do anything about it. Dove straight into a mountain.
That was the weirdest glitching I have had so far.

 

[Dan]

When I was the Velum pilot on an ill-fated attempt (Demolition guy was the biggest dumbass I've ever played with), I was so close behind the AI Lazer, that I had to keep slowing down every time it used the air brakes. I would've slammed into the rear of the jet. If I could use a pistol while flying, I could've shot the pilot out of the jet. I'm not joking.

That is what I do. Just circle towards them.

You can fly the entire mission behind a jet, and the Helicopter guy doesn’t have to do squat. Perhaps blow up the police on the ground.

 

[Sage Ages]

Can fit four people ? Yes .

The Vestra doesn't carry four people. Even if it did, there's no doors for the people in the back to jump out.

If you are unable to use your hands, yes.

Are you sure motion sensor function was off , because I was flying a mammatus in Titan of a job and it started tilting and I must have turned it on out of curiosity before I came off GTAO the night before , I turned it off and it was back to how it was before .

I guess your right . I stand corrected .

I don't have any defense systems against the jet. The demo guy does. Yes, I could potentially fly past the airstrip and the prisoner or guard could take him out with a stinger missile, but they have to worry about the cops near them.

 

[Sage Ages]

I wonder if the jet will do anything if you land the Velum.

If that was the case it should happen a lot more often.

I was flying, in a straight line. The plane flipped itself and down we went. First and only time it happened.

Probably nothing as you will probably be bombarded with NOOSE teams and the Lazer would probably leave it to them to finish you off , which they probably would if you landed that early .

Park it on a hill or something. The cops only spawn on roads.

 

[STI9]

If your flying skill is low then you will be subject to a lot more turbulence than those who have it maxed. Thats why people dont let low level players fly in missions. I know that your level doesnt necessarily relate to your flying ability but a general rule.
