Just another story (timed)

[FDru]

Are these missions basically impossible for everybody else? I got half a dozen of these side-objectives but only managed to complete it once. Another time I got close to the finish but bumped into a pedestrian and entered combat for 10 seconds causing it to fail. The rest of the time I was nowhere near being able to complete it, because even with barely slowing down at all the distance to the finish is still massive when the timer runs out...

Ive only ever completed 1 timed vehicle contract. Drove 4.1km in a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that went barely over 100mph, with 1 minute 20 seconds to spare.
I think I heard the objective(s) and distance is randomized, so you can make a save right before getting into the vehicle and keep reloading that save until you either get an objective you like, or a short distance to travel, or both lol

Managed to finish a few timed missions of this by just taking some short turns on curves, like an apex turn. it's much more harder when it's one of those boost missions that involves chases, and I am forced to do emergency brake hacks or short circ those on bikes. but yeah, sometimes they are impossible to beat.

quest failed even though i still have time

I have finished all of them so far.

My last 5 timed mission was unbeatable, always about 1min and 20 seconds for 2 to 2.5 km.... even with a really fast car is it nearly impossible... if you get enemy's who follow you you can't do it in time. I think nobody had this missions tested...

I think the issue is when the bad guys spawn. It is not constant. They spawn in at various times after you drive the car away. So if they spawn in sooner then you take more time messing with them. If they spawn in later then you can probably get there without messing with them.

My advice is to keep driving away from them. If you continue to drive you will notice that some will get stuck in traffic or hit objects. They then de-spawn. Near the drop-off point you may have to dispatch 1 vehicle or 2 and then you are done. Just keep driving away from them. Drive on the wrong side of the road, take corners, etc. Just lose them somehow. As far as I can tell they do not all re-spawn once they are out of range.

The last one I did I was able to complete because the guys chasing me hit my car and caused it to go a lot faster.

I failed a couple of these, but I've also completed a bunch. It really depends on traffic and the roads you have to take. The time limit isn't generous but it's not impossible.

Take the road...

Save before you get in the car and if you get a timed one reload and try again. It is random what event you get and the drop off locaiton.

Sounds like a waste of time. There's still a reward for completing (and it's possible you could get the side objective to deliver in good condition later in the mission). Might as well just complete and move on to the next.

I'm obviously only here because I'm having trouble. Failed my second timed one just now because the timer started at a minute flat with 2km to drive. Randomization just makes some of them impossible.
Thankfully, the rewards didn't seem to decrease for failing the timed part? Here's hoping there's just bonus rewards for passing it.

Some times it really is impossible. Like expecting 2.5 kilometers in under 2 minutes with a slow truck and a route going through high traffic areas.

These missions are trash, pure and simple. Sometimes you get lucky, but often times it is totally unfair and annoying, not to mention vehicle handling still sucks big time with keyboard. And if I could blow Muamar's brains out for his ♥♥♥♥♥♥ comments, I would have done so long ago.
