How to beat early GTAO mission Community Outreach?

[Justin_760]

Been trying to beat this mission for days (real world) now, and still havent. Every time I try the mission I get into a game with people who just die within minutes, and its mission failed over and over. Attempted it probably 50 times now.

Characters are so squishy and its a giant parking lot with dozens of enemies, is there any special approach to this mission?

Simply don't rush into enemies, use cover, snacks, armor. I strongly recommend not playing with randoms. Especially team of 4. Better just look up for someone to help you. Like in a pinned thread. If you think this mission is hard wait till 'Peace offerings'. That one can be real pain with random players.

I dont have any friends on GTAO so for me its only randoms, and the esoteric hosting system somehow dictates Im never host despite having 300mb/s internet so I cant change difficulty.

How do you increase your health? Everyone including myself is so damn squishy, get wiped out in a few seconds even when in cover.

Your health increases when you level up, you reach max health at level 120. And maximum regen rate at 200. But overall it won't make you a tank, dying is always easy if you don't have some experience in gameplay. You could try hosting that mission from pause menu. Esc>online>jobs>r* created>missions.
Though overall if you are completely new to the game there are better/easier things/jobs/missions to do.

Rank up, wear body armour, buy a bulletproof helmet and learn to eat snacks quickly (there's no animation if you eat a snack in cover so you can spam snacks that way)

If you want to host the mission just locate it on the map and activate it on foot.

Lastly, SMG's are great early weapons to purchase as they have the mobility of a pistol with the firing rate of a rifle so you can run faster and pop in and out of cover quick - just pop your head up, let loose a burst and pop back in again before you lose your head, or part of it.

Thanks for help. Any pointers on what exactly to do? Map is pretty barren with missions, only a single one from Lamar chain is ever on there, and one from Martin. Also have a bounty mission but I searched in zone for 30min and never found the dude so Im guessing thats a bust.

Any tips would be appreciated.

You're welcome to join me with running some missions if you need the money, man, typically I blow through various CEO missions in friend's only, although I'm happy doing whatever.

My suggestion is check out the gta reddit mega guide thing. Good tips for making money, and money is king. Levels happen while you make money.

Second suggestion is do the weekly events.

They’re usually double pay and by the time you get sick of doing them, you can either farm cars with I/E or whatever your grind poison is, or it’ll rotate to a different event. Even if you suck at the weekly stuff, it’s still double and will bump you up pretty quick.

If you have the free ceo office, mc club, bunker and I//E garage, those are also worth the time. Securoserve VIP missions are decent pay while you save up. And seriously, save up. Get the ARMORED Kuruma first cuz it’ll help with all the other crap you’ll be doing. Personally, I didnt, and it didn’t bother me a single bit, but I can see where it would have made things easier like headhunter and hostile takeover and some of the I/E missions, but I think it would have felt like wasted money to me.

If you start doing I/E - there’s a way to only get top range vehicles so you’ll make 70-80k profit each sale if you’re careful but the free garage is in an annoying location and I wish I would have moved to a better spot BEFORE filling the garage.

Maybe get a cargobob here - makes I/E MUCH less painful.

Bunker - this is the best. Get the one closest to the city - I think it’s Chumash. Great payout, fun missions, and the trip is the shortest. The other bunkers send you too far and are annoying to get to. Buy equipment upgrade immediately then personnel.


MC - don’t waste your time on the free counterfeit cash business. Set it up and ignore it. It’ll cost you money existing, but not enough to actually do, and it’ll come in handy later. The annoying isn’t worth the pay. Save up for lockup and lab, and upgrade equipment and personnel immediately, cycle through these two and bunker for steady cash, maybe the occasional car at this point.

IF you don’t mind leaving your game running for hours/days at a time, nightclub with bunker, Cash, lockup, and lab will get you approx 700k daily without having to do anything except one daily nightclub sale. It accrues separately from the actual MC Businesses so it’s basicslly double cash.

This also lets you get a terrorbyte which is dope. You can source vehicles or, eventually, special cargo (also called crates). It also lets you run client jobs to unlock trade price on the oppressor mk2 which is one of the best things ever. Some folk recommend the mk 1 but the 2 is actually a little faster despite the mk1 boosting more often, flies, and has some of the best missles in the game without having to research them like you do with the mk1, and counts as a motorcycle letting you summon it as MC club president, and run that one time trial vehicle I/E with almost no problems.

Most folks recommend an attack buzzard. It’s faster and a lot cheaper than the oppressor mk2 but the missles suck, and the biggest feature- being able to summon next to you as CEO, just became less impressive since vehicle cooldown dropped from 5 to 2 mins. It’s also tedious as hell. The buzzard is faster by slight margin, but there’s almost no interaction. You just point it and hold down the button. The mk2 you actually drive but also retains the option of flying over everything (without having to hold forward). I stopped doing crates because the buzzard was so boring.

Finally - special crates - if you can take the boring, get two warehouses. I have 2 mediums at the rail yard and behind derrière and alternate between them on cooldown. Derrière is awesome. Rail yard I’m less fond of but it’s directly opposite derrière which is good because special cargo basically sends you back and forth. My rythm worked out to be able to pick up crates either near where I am, or where I’m going, and the terrorbyte means not having to return to the office to do it. ALWAYS DO 3 CRATES. ESPECIALLY WHEN A SPECIAL ITEM IS ON SALE.

Each medium warehouse sells for a approx $700k for a profit of approx $400k. It’s boring but will get you rich. Break up monotony with weekly events or cycle through bunker/MC/IE/VIP work.

You can pretty much do these things in any order, but the I/E garage should prolly be first cuz it’s the best money, most interactive, and it IS grand theft auto so it makes sense you get rich stealing cars.

As for stuff you actually WANT - buy stuff only on sale and do trade price missions when stuff goes on sale cuz it’ll be easier to find ppl.

And idk if this is a good idea, but you might want to stick to the arena war stuff this week and earn some cash and AP enough to get one of the armored and weaponized vehicles just introduced and skip the armored Kuruma altogether cuz they look awesome, can be used in everything including arena war, can be customized by Benny AND can have guns which a Kuruma can’t. The prices may may this unfeasable tho. No idea.

Seriously tho, cargobob or move I/E garage. It’s a different world.
