Money is slowly becoming harder to get
As the title says, money is becoming harder and harder to get from everything. Missions only net me about $12K-$14K. When the same mission used to net me about $19K. It's almost not even worth doing missions and Heists consistently fail or you get douchey random hosts who try to change your amount to about 0-5% even if you carry the team. They also keep changing missions to be more difficult, require more ammo and keep getting rid of missions such as Chemical Extraction which was one of the best missions in multiplayer and it paid on average $21K-$19K depending on if you had teammates in your clan with you.

Come on, Rockstar. :l

Not to also forget that the game design they have for heists is terrible. I mean, the heist starter has to pay money to start a heist, they then get none of the money for each setup mission (for which there are many), and when they get to the actual job they don't get nearly as much as their teammates in total. It's why everyone goes to join but not start heists, bringing the amount of available matches down. You're penalized for starting a heist basically.

On top of all of that, the money rewards for the heists are barely worth it, and by "barely" I mean "not at all".

Playing Hard mode should be at least 2x RP&$$, not 1.25x.

I imagine all of this is so they can sell you $1m for $20 of actual cash.

Missions are alright to level up, but not for much else.

For money you should either do heists (pacific job or humane) or freeroam and stand next to cheaters spawning money bags.

I can easily make 500k in about 4 or 5 hours from soloing missions. If you have a hard time getting money it means you're ♥♥♥♥ at the game. Buy a tank and the savage, focus on missions where you can use either or and just grind them. Problem solved.

Thats normal, Hard is 1.5 but yea it should be 2x. Easy = 1 Normal 1.5 and Hard 2.

yes, because nothing is more fun than wasting hours doing the same mission over and over again... nice logic.

Missions pay out based on the time it takes to complete them. You need to take about 15 minutes for every mission and they will pay out around 20k. All of em. The diminishing returns comes from knowing how to do the mission and completing it very fast.

It's actually not that big of a gap, but I agree not gettign anything for the set ups does kind of suck.

Grinded the same mission from 50-125, in different ways. I'll never do a mission again.
I have all I want, and just sandboxing the heck outta the game with mates.

What podcast are for~ Though hey you want more money thats how you get it. Or you can spend real money, or play with the annoying Russians that infest the Online.

I was wondering about that, I noticed a dip in mission payout on how long it took me to beat it.

average beginner cry thread about not enough money


http://gta.wikia.com/wiki/Missions_in_GTA_Online
explanation of the mission reward system

heists were designed for 4 friends its your fault when you rely on noobish strangers
It is easy to gather 500k in 1 hour with the help of your buddies
-do the fleeca heist, only 1 random is needed ...
-do the criminal mastermind 10m bonus, yeah you need friends to do this ...

-Freemode events are another option to gain big amounts of money (35k )
-sell the dubsta2 (24,5k) or sandking 2(18,5k) to LSC
-racing / captures etc + bets (when you play with friends you know, who is winning ...)
-do the dailies , extra bonus for 7 and 30 days in a row.

that's why at the end of a heist the person who created the heist starts with like 55% and the rest 15% or however it is again because it compensates from the previous parts
