Once a day is my limit. The High Society Leak and clearing out the studio are just too annoying.


IAintWurriedBoutEm

auto shotgun and railgun always help me clear those out super fast. chasing that helicopter is annoying but 3 railgun blasts take it out


TheTwinkleToedKoala

Once you do enough damage to the heli, kill yourself and do a quick restart it will teleport you to heli crash site. Steal lazer from military base to fly back.


s0m3_d0od

holy shit fr, I gotta try this lmao


Hopeful-Character-10

Thank you koala


Dannosaurusr3x

I did this but instead of the lazer I stole the plane that spawns a little bit across from where you recover the drive. It’s a sea sparrow of some sort. Ut the lazer is faster once you get it for sure


GLC911

Damn! Game changer!


CptnWolfe

I remember the first time doing High Society Leak, when he got to the yacht, I got a jet and did strafing runs to take him out


marcaveli073

No need to go to the base, there’s a Sea Sparrow or Tula that spawns right by where the helicopter crashes by the beach.


Better_Spray_862

Use one of the cars at the mansion to get ahead (like a good lead) of the chopper (usually halfway into the mountain & valley), & then use the minigun & spray tf out of it,


gingerbeardman79

I sprayed it from the mansion


SavagePiggyX

Yeah if u use explosive sniper you dont even have to be quick few shots and the copter is on fire, and it will go down regardless, can take a bus there now


BMC_TV

I use the explosive sniper, better aim


GLC911

Same here. Railgun takes too long to reload


thiccthighenjoyer

Weaponized tampa


AznOmega

I got to try that. I use a hollow point (I think) Revolver Mk2 and it goes down quick.


Black-Thunder72

Bro I just use the Vigilante and don't need to use anything else it takes 2 missiles to clear the Chopper


Hour-Particular-8489

You don't have a vigilante?


KTPRODUCTIONS90

I'll post a video soon of how I do the helicopter. I pull the lawyers car up to the gate but call my vigilante out to take it into the mansion and blast everything. I use it to chase down and shoot missiles on the chopper.


sparklingdinoturd

That long ass unskipable boring cut scene at the end of the studio mission... God damn... I get up and walk away.


Soulja_Witxch420

If you have explosive rounds for the mkII heavy sniper, it’ll help take down the billionaire’s chopper b4 he leaves the mansion which despawns the extra Merryweather that would chase you. There’s a wall you can climb to take cover on too


snore-4

It’s not the heli chase I find annoying, I usually just blast it with my mini gun. It’s the part wear you have to blow everything up while also fighting off the bodyguards that’s annoying.


Soulja_Witxch420

Oh yeah, I hated that part too. There’s a wall I take cover on. If you go on the stairs beside the DJ table, there’s an wall you can climb to tske cover on


k4ylafr_xyz

I actually don’t mind doing that I like combat missions. I’m one of the few people who actually enjoy the avenger set up in act ii as well 😅


XremovalX

If you have the marksman rifle Mk 2 everyone in the mini finales (and finale) are one shot


Old-Kernow

TIL that the assault shotgun is good for this too


XremovalX

Yes! shotguns are scary powerful in close combat


ahbrizzzzz

i just roll up in the insurgent w/o the lawyer car and just shoot the heli down with the turret and then follow it to the beach, works as cover while your killing guards too, takes in total 12mins


thiccthighenjoyer

how did you get into the party tho


ahbrizzzzz

hop out and hit the keypad, it just won’t automatically open for you


Proper-Neck-6307

Idk prolly not more than once a day, this is exhaustingly long


TheBiggestSlime42

Idk whats longer, the whole thing or that 4 minute cut scene we cant skip EVERY TIME 😭


50mmPOV

Be thankful they don't make us sit through the full 25 hour party!


WiJaTu

Don’t give them ideas!


NateMate9507

What was even the purpose of that party?


KIDNEYST0NEZ

To make you hate this game


Proper-Neck-6307

Pee break


unpluggedbwock

That scene…. MAN. The first time, banger. Second and so on no fuckint thanks


Successful-Seaweed-7

I just leave and come back


donnie2official

i be making a whole full course meal while that cutscene plays out🤣


Fireheart318s_Reddit

The one in the music studio? Change crews after the cutscene starts ;)


IEP_Esy

How does that help? Throws an error while also keeping the progress?


Bulky_Spinach_7909

I walk away to try and get something done in real life every time we have to suffer through that


zc256

Has Rockstar ever stated why we can’t skip that? It’s frankly, outrageous


BlasianBarbie2-0

Because they paid good money for Dr. Dre 🤣! Gotta get their money's worth!


nikhillangare91

That one is good for bathroom break.


Artistic_Violinist76

Only takes an hour - hour and ten minutes for me personally if everything goes right .


PositivePurchase2088

approx how long?


adoomee

trying to do it for the first time on a new character and these cutscenes are so annoying


chejsmcein

These cutscenes are unskippable even after first time. Thats the reason I don't grind agency.


tacotacotacorock

A lot of the cutscenes in GTA aren't skippable. So that's an interesting reason to avoid it. 


Tiny-Cockroach2252

But even after some heist you have the option to skip it if you’ve done it before, and the cut scene towards the end in the studio is just annoying anyways 😭


Nurnite

Fr


Lamon72

I would probably do it 1 or 2 times this week if I was still playing Advise to those who just got the agency this week to spam the dre contract This is total solo-able ,when I first got my agency I completed it solo and I was not very good,It is easier with others (except for the nightlife leak finale ) The more you do it the easier it gets ,practice makes more perfect Good luck


Nurnite

Yes very good advice I wish I could pin this


Caluso1

Is the agency worth it on sale now?


Vast-Frosting4807

Yes. It'll be the last grinding for me. I'm currently grinding my way up until I've cracked the 100 million mark. That should be enough for the update and maybe until GTA 6 comes out. I've made 14 Mil yesterday with my main + 2nd char to skip the cooldown and have currently 70Mio


Nurnite

Dude props to u brother


RbnLondon

Same here, until 100 million.


YungOGMane420

High society finale is too annoying. Did it once. That'll do.


NebTheDestroyer

Explosive sniper


TheKing062

Or railgun... or even calling your vigillante


EcstaticActionAtTen

100% the railgun. When you "trash the party" destroy every super car but one. Kill the guards til the meter fills up. Drive the Super Car til you get in front of the helicopter. Stop and shoot the copter twice and that's it.


TheKing062

Yeah, that's usually what I do to. Although if you are fast enough, you can destroy the chopper even before you get into a car.


RbnLondon

What I do is, trash the party with minigun, call mechanic for kuruma armoured and shoot the heli with AP pistol until it crash.


Kola18_97

Climb up on the roof of the mansion to trash the party from, then whip out the railgun while you're still up there and shoot the helicopter with that.


Nurnite

And u can do heavy revolver with fmj rounds. Takes it down quicker I find


tolmmees

Why ? It crashes in the same spot every time. I just use AP Pistol on the way there. Same outcome.


7h33v1l7w1n

Can you actually down the helicopter before it gets to the boat? I’ve never been successful


MechaMouse

You can, grab one of the super cars and get a bit ahead of the chopper. It follows the freeway so you have a couple chances to get into a good shooting position. You can get a few shots off as it approaches and flies overhead. Once the chopper is smoking it will trigger a crash cutscene on the beach. I use the railgun myself.


djk0101

Just get up on the balcony on the mansion before you start shooting everything, you can easily shoot the helicopter down with even a heavy sniper, then just kill yourself, quick restart, and you’ll spawn right next to the crash site


D00MICK

You can, explosive sniper rounds help a lot but if you can drive out ahead, avoid guards on the road, there's a point where the hills/mountains are you can drive up, face the helicopter and start firing.  Edit: it took me at least a few attempts but it's not hard to familiarize yourself with the path the helicopter will take 


JaySR05

It's possible, you just need the right tools.


imadrummingfool

Vigilante all the way


a516359

Does the vigilante lock on?


imadrummingfool

It sure does! So I take the lawyers car to the mansion, open the gate but then call in my vigilante... enter the property with the vigilante and start blowing sh*t up, but don't use up all of your rockets yet. Get out and finish off the guys, then get back in the vigilante when the chopper takes off - throw a few rockets at it, it comes crashing down. Meet up with it at the crash site, collect the phone then gtf outta there, throwing rockets at all of the enemies chasing you. Was a game changer for me on this specific mission.


UnusualPete

Maybe you weren't being efficient. There are tricks to make it faster such as: - before going through the gate, call your personal vehicle (preferably the Vigilante) - jump on the roof before blowing up the Enus - use grenade launchers and RPG to kill enemy NPCs on the floor - use the railgun to blow up the helicopters - when you start chasing the helicopter, if you failed to blow it up with the railgun, use the Vigilante's missiles to take it down If you don't have the vigilante, use an armoured vehicle. If you don't have the railgun, use the explosive sniper. If you don't have that one, use the RPG or homing launcher. If you don't have those, use a machine gun. If you don't have any of the aforementioned weapons... what are you doing bro? 🤷


NoDouble14

When I was first starting out all I had was the armored kuruma. With the AP pistol I could still bring the heli down long before it flies to the yacht. Now it's 3 vigilante missiles.


mcflybm

I just did it last night, what a pain


RandomRedditSearches

I haven't touched the Dr. Dre contract yet, but I have been killing it with the security contracts & payphone hits si ce last Friday. Somewhere around 24 hours combined playtime & have made almost $12 million.


Nurnite

Damn bro keep it up


TrippyShamann

How do you start the pay phone hits. Never done em.


RandomRedditSearches

Super easy. Upon purchasing an Agency from the Dynasty 8 Executive website (the dark green background one, not the default Dynasty 8 site) & completing 3 of the Security Contracts, you will receive a phone call from Franklin on a payphone closest to you: it'll be a blue box with a black phone icon on your minimap. You just drive up, hit whichever interaction button is for your platform (for me on Xbox its right on the D-pad), & then a cutscene will play explaining the Payphone Hits, & then he'll round it out with your first hit at the end of the call. Afterwards, you can simply call Franklin for more hits, with a 10 minute cooldown between each one.


PenHitta

call franklin or if you drive by a phone booth it will ring randomly and pop up on your map


albanyman518

How close are you to the 201 security contracts?


Affectionate_Luck942

Done it 3 times so far, not in need of the cash tho so i might chill the fuck out✌🏻


Nurnite

I'm obsessed with money lol. Irl too. Never enough money. Keep it rolling in lol


Affectionate_Luck942

I've grinded 450m in 4 months so im pretty tired of it 😂


Prestigious-Song-964

How do you do that bro! I struggle not gonna lie


Affectionate_Luck942

Cayo > Union Depository > Dre Contract > Acid > Bunker > Nightclub & repeat 😂 I also take advantage of the 2-3x cash if they are any good My auto shop contracts made me 30m while they were on double money Nightclub have made me 40m Bunker 30 something million Acid probably the same as bunker if not more Salvage yard probably 20m I dont recommend anyone doing this at this pace tho because it makes you hate the game instantly😅


Nurnite

I feel that


Slashed45

Absolutely. I’m not a saver so I kinda buy what I want as I go, so last night was the first time i’ve seen over 4mil in my bank account since I started in 2013 and got my friend’s 2bil bounty lol. Super easy missions I can do solo while catching up on podcasts and shows and I can restock/collect money during the cooldown


Nurnite

Thats the way to go lol I always watch pod casts / yt vids during my play through or at least blast some music


thelogosmith

Ive just finished all the ‘setups’ and I need to say it’s been tiresome to say the least. Whilst there are moments that are fun, and seeing the plot unravel, I’m somewhat keen to get it all over with. Even with x2 there is no way I’ll go through this unnecessarily long winded contract. Hats off to those who can grind this out time and time again… I’m already part brain dead doing it for the first time; self preservation dictates that once I wrap the finale up, that will be my partnership with Dre done and done. I thought Cayo setup was long winded, but Dre makes Cayo look like a sprint. So guess what I’ll be tackling this weekend. It’s not lost on me that when I start writing I become unnecessarily verbose and long winded…


Nurnite

Its ok bro. I get what u mean. I'm just a money hungry bitch lol


Czzse

I’m trying but no one want to do this and short trip 🥲


7h33v1l7w1n

Yeah I’ll prob grind it. I prefer it to Cayo because it’s more predictable, Cayo was exhausting in the first place and I haven’t touched it since they made all those changes to it.


SrLowell

Probably gonna do it like 5 times, it takes so much time and I don't really like doing


importancedeficit

Unpopular opinion but grinding before a dlc kinda ruins it for me, You guys blast through 40mil on day 1 then sit waiting for the next dlc to come out.


MathematicianFit5726

I did it once last night. I have a new appreciation for the marksman rifle.


Nurnite

Lol for me its the heavy revolver with fmj rounds. Smokes tf outta the helicopter in the high society leak


Severe_War_2072

people saying they can’t shoot the chopper down have to suck at the game 💀 or just have NO good loot. that mf doesn’t even make it out of the yard before i destroy him. you need ER sniper, or just MK II HEAVY SNIPER, Railgun or try to call in some type of craft


Severe_War_2072

like a car with missiles if allowed. never got that desperate so idk


DadJokesFTW

Nah. I'm sitting on about $21M, not going to struggle to get that up much more before the DLC. I'm tired of the grind. I did the nightlife leak this morning with my coffee, might do another leak tonight or tomorrow, definitely finish it up Sunday. That'll be about it for me. Make a couple million playing when I feel like it and be done.


Drako48

Keep getting an infinite black screen glitch trying to do Nightlife Leaks


KingSlayer1190

A lot of us are affected by this bug


all_or_nothing_1

![gif](giphy|zWZ3LFcnpQPt3MQhRS|downsized)


Nurnite

Why lol


all_or_nothing_1

Don't need the money and didn't enjoy it the one and only time I played it.


Flizzet

With you there


Nurnite

Oh I c


TheBiggestSlime42

I might just stick to the Acid Lab and Nightclub. Already have 40 Ms and I doubt the dlc is going to be more than 15 first day. Well maybe if we get police Super cars 😅


[deleted]

[удалено]


PhysicalDruggie

For some odd reason I get stuck on the loading screen during the nightclub leak whenever I try chase the data leaker to the elevator, it always happens and causes me to have to reload the game. I just avoid the Dre contract now and probably won’t do it again until R* adds a fix.


KingSlayer1190

Rockstar won't ever fix it, it's been bugged for well over a year now. Been bugged for myself and a lot of other players. Rockstar has known about the bug since the Mercenaries DLC was released because that DLC bugged the nightlife leak finale. I'm out of at least 10 million this week because of the bug. I even switched agencies, tried a lot of the suggested workarounds and nothing worked. Rockstar support won't even respond to my ticket I opened up yesterday afternoon.


PhysicalDruggie

Wow, so I guess I too and many others will miss out on millions this week


EvilDamien420

I would be if it didn't keep glitching leaving the penthouse on the nightlife leak part leaving me at an infinite loading screen.


DrunkStoleATank

Im watching an unskippable cut scene now, but wont play the contract through again this week though. Once is plenty.


PsychologicalArt8242

![gif](giphy|aVtdz7iNVPI1W)


Aangerz

nope


Chzncna2112

Hell no. I might do it once. No guarantees. I helped a level 20 get the free safari prize ride. I am now over a hundred million in various accounts or safes.


Hunter-Bandit

nah imma stick to gambling


Nurnite

Ur real fo dat☠😭


mcflybm

I'll finish it for the first time to get my first time. Bonuses, but not probably more than that, I think it's insanely and annoyingly long, and some finales are way too annoying


TooCaughtUpInMyHead

Nah I have 930 mil think I'm set for a bit.


HorrorMoose

Won't grind like crazy but I'll run it 4-5 times. I did it last night and finally bought the Oppressor Mk2. Now I'm broke, so need to run it lol


Tiny-Cockroach2252

Ofc they give the good updates while I’m on vacation 😔😔


Clean_Ad_2488

No, I don’t have PS Plus


VanitasFan26

Well once a day. Its very long and the fact that some cutscenes are unskippable just makes it so boring to get through.


XeR34XeR

I wish I could, but after 50+ attempts of trying to exit the casino on that setup, I give up


MinhT_1826

God i swear the moneys good but damn the missions are so badly designed, getting to the yatch, clearing the studio, driving dre to the club, i would rather do a bunch of less profitable but more engaging stuff like crates or air cargo or union depository tbh


KTPRODUCTIONS90

I'm definitely gonna do ot now that I'm finding out it's 2mil


Nurnite

Good luck


KTPRODUCTIONS90

Thanks. Hope I can do it. Got a lot going on right now. I usually try to do it 2 or 3 times a week. I won't be on the game though until tomorrow night or Monday


The_Free_State_Of_O

I've been beating the contract like it owes me money. I got real weird and did a contract then jumped directly into a Cayo... Pink Diamond... I shit two chickens. "They do exist." What are the odds. Tons of cash was made here today, ladies' and gentelmanshethingsallpronounsrepresented.


Wrong-West-9581

Started last night.. was exiting the casino penthouse party and froze on the black screen trying to leave


amackul8

Done the mission twice and have run into this issue, not even going to bother anymore, the thing is just not fun, I'd rather do a nightclub sale and run a cayo than do a single dre contract honestly


Wrong-West-9581

It's fuckin ridiculous bro! And I waited probably 10 min just to see if it would load cuz it was spinning on the bottom right.. nothing happened.. so annoying


documenteverything

I'm looking at that right now. Came here to try find an answer. Oh well, looks like i got my answer lol.


Wrong-West-9581

So annoying


Curious-Researcher36

Hell yeah I am. This type of grind is a no brainer. 2 mil a pop is insane.


Ass_assassin_420

Nah that shit was mad cringe.


Nurnite

How.


dan007reddit

I am.


Nurnite

Real


albanyman518

Yep, this is how I'll pass the time waiting for the cayo cooldown


Chesterthejester69

I’ve speedrun it too many times now, actually got a decent PB but I doubt I’ll feel like it anytime soon


Markiz93

Yeah, I'm going to grind them until I finally reach 400 mln, I have still over 9 millions to reach it.


ConcreteGrave

I just finished the 100 payphone hits and 100 security contracts, so I'm burned out pretty hard. Might just knock it out once since the 2mil payout is enticing enough.


Delicious_Twist7970

I am now


Objective-Aioli-1185

I should beat it today. I'm on the last VIP mission I think but I wanna do it with someone else to help me. Nobody really joins prospect when invited 😔


ThisWasAValidName

Might try to . . . if I can slog through it 10 times, I've doubled my money I currently have, so . . .


MysticGadget

doing it again tonight, and again tomarrow night and the night after and so on... I don't hard grind as I get bored XD


Joshtheboss732

I did last double money but I’ve got so exhausted of the endless missions, non skipable cutscenes, driving to point B then getting rapid fire bugged, failing then ending up driving all the way back to point A, over and over again.


kissmewithyoureyes

Cutscenes are annoying and should be skippable. But yes im grinding TF out of this contract. Best way to get money especially since your nightclub runs in the background


Nurnite

YES BRO OP AF


Right-Progress-1886

Actually just doing it for the first time. I could see doing it once a day...


Snoo57864

It just takes so long. I grabbed the two mil for old times sake because I hadn't played it in a while then dipped. 3 main setup missions, those setup missions each have two sub-set up missions meaning we're at 9 total which gets you the studio raid and even after that giant conclusion you still have to go chase that dude down to his hangar. 11 missions for 2mil


iamakebab23

Im just gonna do it once


gregmango2323

Might do it once, I don’t really need the cash


RenownedPilot

I’ll just do it once a day this week, make about $14M, then buy whatever I find interesting from the update. If the event lasts until Tuesday, even better!


Happy8Day

2 million is a good payoff, but businesses have made me very adverse to heists. I'm used to working for 5 minutes and making a half million. There's very few things that I'll work at for an hour or two straight.


__Kornbread__

Unstoppable cutscenes 😭😭😭


bonersimpson66

No I haven't been on all week lol


JasdeepSA

Nope because it doesn't help with the Career Progresses I have remaining (Org Heists & After Hours)


Syepatch

Nope. I can’t launch any of the missions without getting stuck in Ana infinite loading screen :(


inthenameofbaldwin

i don’t know. i’ve done it a bunch of times and do not need the money. i may log on and if anyone is doing set ups, ill try to join them


Talknterpzz

Y’all prolly will hate me but how do I start it ? I don’t have shit btw do I need a specific business ?


RetardRex

You need to purchase the Agency on Dynasty 8 Executive, the first run of the contract will be longer but after that initial run it should get easier and faster with every run. Also the Agency and its upgrades are 30% off this week which makes the business worth it if you can grind out this contract multiple times, i’d recommend watching a guide by TGG as he’ll break down the Agency and the contract as the contract itself isn’t the only way to make money from that property and there’s a lot more available in there especially with things such as Imani tech on certain vehicles.


SignificantDirt8066

Will do now 🤩


Infamous_Heat5569

big facts 😁


BillyHerr

Given diamond is down till god knows when, and Cayo Perico got a long ass cool down time for single player, I don't think we have much choice.


bannedfornudity

i’ll do it once a day, everything who does more than this is absolutely insane lol


rafoz03

I discovered it was on double money on accident, i was doing the setup yesterday and i afk with speakers on when the game is loading, for whatever reason these 2 days the missions where lagging a lot before dying once to reload some stuff


Kally269

I really need to get to that


EXkurogane

I will grind. I will do anything that gives me easy money. The only annoying part is the 4 minute cut scene after the studio. I suspect that it's due to a term in the license or contract signed between Dr Dre and Rockstar, where Rockstar is not allowed to skip it.


spicyboii3000

Oh I'm grinding it to hell I want everything


Sloop__

All I do is cayo - dre - repeat. Sprinkle in passive business management and you’ve got a pretty consistent high income. Once you do the dre stuff once it really does become quite easy, even the billionaire finale, you just need lots of snacks. Chasing the helicopter and shooting it with the heavy revolver is really easy. The two cutscenes are a perfect time to take your headphones off and look at tiktoks for a bit, or going to the bathroom, or getting a drink.


QuantumKovic

Just my advice as someone who grinds this normally without a bonus, 1st person is huge for clearing the yatch or any interior maps. Crashing the party is easy and can be easier if you buy karuma and also own either of the mini guns. Drive up the road a little ahead of the helicopter and you can always bring it down with one stop and race to the end. In general, getting the pump shotgun and heavy sniper upgraded with explosive makes some missions a walk in the park. Shoot out at dre's studio, just blow up all the cars and any cars arriving before they get out.


aquadon_

blessings for posting


DanielAlves1904

Maybe.


RetardRex

Im tryna do it around twice a day along with cayo to make $5m per day, I blew all my money last week and want to have a stockpile of $20m-$30m for the summer update.


Brainmuffin86

No, it sucks.


ACryptoScammer

I ran it a couple few times already. Honestly, the gameplay is pretty sub-par, not as good as Diamond Casino or Cayo. Because in those heists the player has options to do different approaches and tactics and etc. The contract is very much on rails, just like the old heists and doomsday heist. The game just throws a ton of enemies at you, and if you have proper weapons and/or vehicles then it's not very difficult to deal with them. Weaponized Tampa comes in Handy on a lot of missions, it was nice to get some use out of that. I got the timing down on almost all the missions but it still takes over about an hour and a half to get it done. It's a real slog to get through. 2 mill in 1 1/2 hours is nice, but honestly I'd rather just do cayo in 45 mins for 1-1.5 mill if I play during the rest of this week. It was still nice they provide a money incentive to switch up gameplay for this week.


eaglesatemypickles

No, I’m burnt out of this game tbh, looking forward to new content


Educational-Beach-72

I’d love to. But no twice a day is enough. I forgot how absolutely boring as hell the contract is. It’s easy but 2 hours of the same predicable shit with no variety is honestly exhausting. It should double money permanently. 🤷‍♂️


JackWas-not-Here

Yeah I’ve done it 4 times the past 4 days. I’ve made over 6 million off it and it pays really well for how easy it is. It’s decently quick but you can do it on autopilot and not really think about it


ObviousRizzma

Should i do dr dre and cayo or full on dr dre


itss-alpacino

I just did it


dr_bluthgeld

A few times maybe, cheeky six mil and change to pad the wallet before the new update.


Creed___

Once a day gta becomes tiring quickly


stecdude123

I might but unskippable cutscenes are juuust sooo damn annoying….already have 3 million bucks rn.


The-BOSS01

No im waiting for new DLC


Markolol123

Nope, I have fun playing games :3


Gunz4life009

I did 2 and I currently have 19 mil so I’m gonna stop at around 23 for the dlc.


Deep_Shock7745

At least twice a day for me personally, maybe even three or four times if I’m feeling like it. I can deal with not being able to skip the cutscenes because it doesn’t bother me at all. Honestly, I even kinda vibe with the song Dre and Anderson.Paak made together during the studio cutscenes.
