How do you drag someone for 3300 ft?

[GeneralRei]

I can't seem to get it done. It'll tell me I only dragged the guy 1 foot while I'm currently dragging them. Closest I got was 20 ft and I never even stopped riding. I don't understand how to get this or check that I'm doing it right. I hate to keep losing karma for no reason

Don't release them, and find an empty flat area without any obstacles. And to avoid karma loss, just use an enemy NPC - say, the last surviving member from a random gang's camp.

I've tried at least 4 or 5 times tho and no matter how flat the area, it just gives me 1-20 ft. I definitely don't let go even if they're dead(tho I'm assuming that would stop it anyways). Do you know why it's doing that? Or how to track the progress during the ride so I'm not wasting my time dragging a corpse around some fields? Lol

This might seem odd, but I *think* dragging the NPC after they die still counts towards the goal.

It didn't seem so in my case. I haven't popped that one yet, despite dragging a guy down the road multiple times. The last time I tried, I went nice and slow over a flat grassy area but he still died and the challenge never completed. So either OP and I are doing something wrong, or they have to survive.

However, I just looked it up online and there's no mention of needing the victim to survive, so I'm not sure what the issue is. I think I'll jump in right now and try it again. 3300 feet is less than a mile, so it really shouldn't be that hard to get it.

No need for the target to survive. And you can just ride in circle, it will count, but it takes quite a long time, so don't give up prematurely.

I used the eugenics guy, lasso'd, and just trotted along. No need to race to the end. I stayed on roads, and easily avoided everything. I also wouldn't stop to check - just go, and go, until it says completed. Could probably follow train tracks too if you want to gamble a train not interfering.

edit - for some reason it sticks in my mind that I went from St Denis clear over to Rhodes...


This person also did the challenge, and at the start it only notified 1 of 3300 and nothing else til the challenge was completed.

You hitting other keys? Holding keys? Any mods involved? I mean... there's many potentials. Hopefully, nothing silly like nvidia reflex, or rtx options messing with game mechanics/cutscenes like in gta5 enhanced but I digress.

I'm not trying to stop or pause to check, people online were saying you can hit g or alt to check your progress during the ride. I'm not stopping at all for any reason, I just wanna know I'm not wasting my time. After it give you the first "congrats you went 1 ft" it doesn't count anymore distance, even if you don't stop dragging. You have to stop and start again or it doesn't count (at least in my experience)
