So yeah, I'm done trying heists with pubbies. I can't get the Fleeca heist done because pubbies either lag out or just leave? right before the job's almost done. One person just stopped and go out of the car a few hundred feet from the heli pickup, and mission fail. That's some high level griefing.

Well, good news! Looks like there are some bonuses in store for us if the community bands together to complete heist finales this week.

I'm sure goons will be happy to hold your hand and free you of your pubby-dependencies.

quote:

The Heist Challenge
To help get ready for the upcoming release of the next evolution in Heist gameplay, the GTA Online community has the chance to take down a special kind of score.
Play any Heist Finale over the next 7 days to collectively steal GTA$100 BILLION as a community. Any Heist Finale take will count towards the total – from The Fleeca Job to The Data Breaches to The Diamond Casino Heist.

Should everyone come together and hit the target by November 18th, we’ll reward the entire community at large with a special new vehicle, free of charge for a limited time this December. All participants who partake in this week’s Heist challenge will receive an additional bonus – a special badge of honor for their efforts. Assemble your crew, plan your operations and keep an eye out for updates.

To help players get their boots in the door, we’re waiving 75% of the cost of Casino Heist Setup Fees, now through November 18th. There are also rumors of the potential for a shipment of diamonds to be found in the Casino vault.

The community heist challenge was won, so here's one of the rewards we got:

It's a teaser for the next game update, the 'all-new take on Heists'. The body randomly spawns in-game now (and does nothing), but the resident GTAologists are certain the island is not an existing location. After 7 years are we finally getting a new landmass?? That'd be something.

After much research lots of evidence points to the Up n Atom diner in the north. I'm not sure if this is a starting location or ending location but it does seem relevant. To start the trail of evidence that leads to this location takes basic understanding of the clues, which are the mural, glyphs, and other clues that point to this location.

https://imgur.com/gallery/NowrO5X https://imgur.com/gallery/4LttjT9

As everyone knows the mural leads to the glyphs, and the glyphs lead from the mountain side to the desert. We know all these glyphs are clues and looking at them as a whole, the sand glyph stand out for lots of reasons. First for the obvious thats its written in sand(like how long do you expect something to last written in sand), it has more information than the other glyphs such as the north arrow and the wow signal, also maybe the most important the pylon with the sign with the red arrow.

With this understanding it really shows the sand glyph is the most important and seems to be where the trail starts. The sand glyph and clues there seem to point to location and as we know the mountain glyph is the same as the sand glyph, with the north arrow it could mean north of the mountain. Since the wow signal is also seen at the hippie camp we can confirm that it is indeed what is on the sand glyph. Since the pylon with the red arrow is directly next to the sand glyph it seems assured that it is part of clues and its direction is of importance as well as the one at the hippie camp.

Gta 5 sat dish and red arrow maps https://imgur.com/gallery/FosPjim https://imgur.com/gallery/FHUpftE

As seen in the maps the red arrows point in the direction of on both sides of Mt chiliad, most believe that the red arrow at the sand glyph points at the hippie camp but it actually points a little to the west of the hippie camp where if you follow the path it would put you in front of the red arrow at the hippie camp. I didn't make these maps but it did compare them to in game and the sand glyph red arrow direction does appear to be accurate not sure about the hippie camp red arrow. As you can see in the map the sand glyph red arrow points very close to the up n atom diner, the path goes across the bay area directly in front if the bridge with the spider web.

A Guide of all known Spider Webs : chiliadmystery - Reddit

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...8Hvj5L_nnyZ3K2b

https://www.reddit.com/r/chiliadmystery/comments/ebl6by/all_of_madam_nazars_sayings/

There are 2 known spider webs in the game that spawn, the first was found very soon which is under the platform at the top of the mountain at the cable car station, the second at the bridge there at the cove next to the up n atom diner. These webs link these two places and shows there is a connection here. R* likes giving hints and with the madam Nazar arcade machine she says this 0x7B74C501 = ~z~I see a web, still tangled after years of unravelling. Will you be the one, I wonder? This is clearly pointing to these webs and there obvious connection with the mystery. Both the spider webs and chiliad ufo have time triggers and that also makes a connection between the two.

Gta 5 gallery art bold https://imgur.com/gallery/6hZLOx2 Connection example https://imgur.com/gallery/XQnCXNq

Now at the up n atom location across the street is the homeless camp with the graffiti of some look left and some look right but the answer is infront of us. There is a connection with this and the gallery paintings seen above on the right. As you can see in the gallery painting there is a figure which looks like they are going in the opposite direction of what says hologram image which most believe means the ufo on chiliad. There are the sign post that point left and right than under it at the bottom is us which makes a connection to the homeless camp graffiti. This gallery painting may be a representation of the connection between the top of chiliad and up n atom

The other arrow at the hippie camp points to many things, first to the red arrow at the bar next to Trevor's trailer which leads to other red arrows. Than off in the distance it is very close to the altruist camp, I can't say for sure that it points directly at the altruist camp but if not it would be a little to the south of it. Also if the red arrows point to where there triggers may be one of the glyphs at the hippie the file name says light and there are is sun graffiti all over the altruist camp, this glyph may have a connection to the altruist camp because of this. The thing to note is in the middle of this it does point to the circle of rocks in the Alamo sea, and this place is interesting because it seems there is more to it than what seems. Also the sand glyph red arrow points very close to the circle trun about next to up n atom making both arrows pointing to circles on the map.

Anyone mess with FiveM yet? Its a third party app that gives the game a separate multiplayer component, I think we touched on it before. I just started playing GTALife: Extinction which has been pretty fun to waste time in. Its similar to DayZ, PVP elements while zombies roam around. There are safehouses where you can buy guns, cars, clothes and manage your storage locker. In a green safehouse radius you can kill zombies but not other players. Outside the green zone you can PVP, and there are also rotating red zones where the zombies will drop much better loot but lots of shooty guys will hang out there. Theres trading and crews, its fun!

The only other server I've messed with was an Asia Drift server, where you earn money with long drifts and buy upgraded cars and then either just drift and hang out or you can teleport to the dozen or so tracks they modded in.

https://fivem.net/

Plus the loading times are 1/2 to 1/3rd what you experience joining GTA:O.

When I tried FiveM it was not at all obvious which servers were the good ones and which ones were the terrible jank servers. Every server I tried was terrible jank and the ones recommended online at the resource I used didn't exist anymore because too much time had passed.
