Hey, a new heist!

Rockstar posted:

A billionaire tech mogul, an idealistic intelligence agent, a socially awkward conspiracy theorist and a neurotic supercomputer have been forced into an unlikely alliance to save San Andreas from total annihilation. As apocalyptic threats mount from enemies unknown, you and your criminal crew are enlisted to un-tangle mysteries and eradicate threats spanning from the bustling streets of downtown Los Santos to the ocean floor and all the way to the inner depths of Mount Chiliad in an epic new online adventure.

The Doomsday Heist is coming to Grand Theft Auto Online on December 12th.

This...looks fun? Where my PS4 Goons at?

New vehicles? I saw an Osprey, Vulcan bomber, and Deloreans flying/submersible Lotus Esprit from The Spy Who Loved Me.

e- And also maybe jetpacks. Glad I finally bought an Oppressor in time for maybe jetpacks.

Don't worry, you couldn't have afforded the new stuff anyways. Besides, everyone should own an Oppressor.

I am truly, honestly beside myself about this news. It's incredible.

It was obvious all the way back to PC launch that we'd never see another heist again and yet here we are...

I'm interested to see how you actually make money from that Heist.

You probably won't.

The Prison Break and Humane Labs were just payment for services rendered, same thing I guess. But no amount of money you can earn in the game is enough anymore, and neither will this.

Should be fun, though.

I will be seriously surprised if the payout is even a single GTAdollar more then pac standard

the heist payout will be the same as pac-stan but the buy in will be even more (because gently caress you you'll play it)

If you use windows 10 you don't have to migrate poo poo, you can make a system image with system files and move the whole thing to the new set of hardware. The drivers are independent of the system image. I have moved PCs this way. It may require a more expensive version of windows (I use windows pro) and if you change too much hardware you may need to buy a new windows license.

I wonder if we can buy the giant nuclear sub.

And there's submarine cars (ardents maybe? Like in the James Beam movie, Spies Like Us). :43 in the trailer


Also the cargo plane interior (?) at :20 looks neat but I'd guess that's only a set for cutscene

1) It's gonna be a two-man deal where one drives and the other aims,
2) It's gonna have all the armor of a wet paper bag, and/or
3) The targeting's gonna get nerfed to high hell outside of heist missions.

I'm guessing it's strong as hell, but 2 man, no lock-on, only 50 missiles.
Also, i'm guessing none of the planes are going to have explosive cannons
the sub car is only going to be able to stay down for 30 seconds at a time
the flying car is going to blow up with a single shot from the crappiest pistol.

I'm under 20 X80 bonds after spending a poo poo ton of money on insurance for the batmobile. I might not be able to buy every vehicle in this pack :(

No it's not

the submarine thing might be fun and the delorean will definitely be fun, and i think i spotted a ferrari 308 behind lester(although that might turn into the submarine car?) that will also be fun but everything else will be crippled in some stupid way.

There was a crashed UFO by zancudo in the gunrunning update files that never got used.

It's possible it was part of this, or just poo poo put in there by rockstar to gently caress with nosy people.
