    So I reckon this is a once off payment.
    I'd like to do it so maybe a thread of who's willing to try it instead of it getting lost amid the online thread. It can be spread across a few days.
    Im in on 360,

    It is once off, you can get it only the first time and that's it. Same with the loyalty challenge and all in order.

    Any of the ps4 lads on later to make a start on the CM challenge and do the Fleeca heist? Will be on from 7.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,357 ✭✭✭DubDJ


    Few recommendations. Start a friend only session for the four of you involved. Passive mode might be a good idea to stop distractions between setups. :p

    'Settings > Stats > Awards > Heists' to keep track of the Ciminal Mastermind Progress. Make sure it doesn't reset.

    Wear Heavy Combat whenever you can and use the armoured cars as well.

    Careful to accept the right invitation on your phone when they're sent out.

    Stock up on armour and snacks before you start heists to make sure you have enough.

    Did ps4 lads get this started? Wanna do it this week if ye didnt?


  • Registered Users Posts: 945 ✭✭✭TacoMan


    I'll be up for it this week. Should be on later from around 7.


  • Registered Users Posts: 35,523 ✭✭✭✭Gordon


    How do you do all heists with same group of people if the fleeca heist is just for two people and the rest are 4?

    Split into two teams and continue from there. Still counts as progress.

    Looking for someone to join myself and two others, to try and get this challenge done over the next few days


  • Registered Users Posts: 532 ✭✭✭Turquoise Hexagon Sun


    (posted this in the GTAO topic before I seen this one)

    Hi guys,

    I'm wondering if anyone here has completed the Criminal Mastermind Challenge with the heists? Also would anyone be up for attempting it?

    I'm on 360 (I know ) and I'm free most evenings and weekends. I've had a little practice on all heists in most roles. I wouldn't expect to complete it first time, either. But we could practice, build tactics and have a bash. Most of all, have some fun. I wouldn't get bogged down by losing. I'm not that competitive. However, would be great to have this under my belt.

    Whether it's for Criminal Mastermind or Heists... add me if you please..

    Quick question on the CM challenge - It says you must complete the heist with the same group of players, but nothing about the same character.

    I'm asking this cos I did the Fleeca with my higher ranked character, but wouldn't mind switching over to the other fool for the remaining heists. Anyone know if this is ok?

    I'm guessing it doesn't matter which character you use, as long as you complete everything with the same players. Also, the CM bonus is a once-off per player, so if I complete it with character 1, I can't switch to character 2 and try for the 10m again.

    Just want to confirm this before we give it a go later in case it messes up our progress so far. My two fools are about 10 levels apart between them so it's not the end of the world if I do the remaining heists with the character I began with.

    Also, Danny, Frankie, Johnny - are we all still on for 8pm later?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,247 ✭✭✭Max Mafioso


    As far as I am aware you have to continue it with whatever character you started it with and you cant switch since both characters share the bank

    "WE GO FOR SHECOND!!!!"

    While Johnny's away catching a few rays (and Lil' D-Bubbles is on the moon..... eating mushrooms), anyone fancy joining Frankie, myself and possibly Monsieur Bublé to try crack the CM challenge?

    Don't be afraid to join, anyone can die, no one wants to be 'that guy', but accidents happen. Pencils/erasers....pens/tipp-ex.... etc.

    If we fudge it up, so be it. We'll have a good laugh anyway.

    PS4 or get fudged.

    Not sure I ever spotted this thread.

    In a attempt to finally get this done, I'm going to throw it out there: I'm available this Friday and Saturday and most of Sunday and then Friday and Saturday the following weekend for a go at this.

    Is anyone still interested? Phobos? Danny? Johnny, I'm assuming you've lost the faith, but if you're still interested then I'm around those nights for sure. Midweek is a bit of a disaster for me.

    Anyone else on PS4 interested? Preferential participation rights to the King of Taco, Monsieur Bublé and Johnny 'Mad Dog' Reynolds.

    Also, if you have no mic....well....get one.
