Cook off...forever?
Who has actually tried an extended cooking session? How long did you stay? Any issues? Anyone willing to waste a few hours...for science?

I did it for almost two hours today. Around the hour and a half mark, the red damage indicator started getting stuck on my screen. eventually, they all joined together to form an almost complete red circle on my screen. Same with my partner. We decided to call it, just incase. But i'd like to try again sometime.

Did solo it on hard. Finished around 1 hour and 10 minutes with 19 bags. I should try it on higher difficulty with my friends

Out of curiosity, how many bags did you cook, what difficulty and how much cash did you make?

Ran a 27min DW with friends. Only one person made it to the van, but we had 7 bags (at the 2-point-something million a pop).

The red damage indicator was stuck on my screen as well in two of the matches.


Out of five tries, it was the longest one we had without getting wiped (wiped three times by a myriad of skulldozers/tazers/cloakers, escaped with four bags, escaped with seven).

It would have been so cool if the bags u cook had an influence on the XP outcome.
So it's 3-4 bags most of the time and leave.
(Wondered about that too, but didn't try yet to cook as many as possible)

This would be great mechanic for the game in general, having some of the XP tied to loot.

Without a cap, you could drag a level 0 player to 100 in one heist.

That would take years with the reduction that 0 lvls get.

Additional XP for additional loot would be great. Would make cooking 7 bags worth it on Rats, which already wields less XP for three days than Cook Off wields for one.

Another post here stated that the limit should be around 1.200 bags :P

Isn't that for White Xmas, the 1200 bag limit?

34,125,000 In bag loot, on overkill. I cant remember how many bags :/ I even forgot to screen shot, had to have my partner in crime send me a still from his recording. I want to say it was at least 22. Im sure someone could do the math though.

We cooked 8-9 bags on DW. It took about 28 mins. No problems encountered during the cooking. The only annoying thing is the extended table, it blocks the stairs. Sooo annoying.

Exactly. Maybe instead of a cheap invisible kubus, a few cheap pallets would have stopped that petty exploit but kept the fun of jumping over and around (and crossfire point) . Or a nicely modded OVE9000 could had fixed it ;)

Wait.... what 'exploit'? I was wondering why i could no longer get behind the stairs to kill any cops coming up.
