Well I read about a heist today and it sounds flipping amazing. The chap said it took about three hours all in to complete. Probably didn't generate that much cash $540,000 between four players, but it just sounded amazing.

There are five setup missions, and then the actual heist. Sounds bloody brilliant.

The wife is going to hate me on Tuesday.

I'm still expecting it to be delayed. Until it actually downloads next Tuesday I won't believe it.

This time of update is getting me hankering for next gen, but there really isn't a lot of point spending £400 just for this one game.

So I've played the first heist, sunk 40 large into the next one, and now all the servers are overloaded and I can do bugger all. Oh well. The first one even though it was simple was a lot of fun.


I honestly can't believe it took them so fking long to release these though. And I still really wish they'd bring out cops n robbers mode again.

I've done the first 2 so far, waiting for Lester to ring me about the next one....

I had a brief period where the servers seemed to be overloaded but turning my xbox off and on sorted it.

I've given that a go, and restarted the router. I'll keep trying. Maybe me being on the West coast of America has something to do with it. Although I'd expect a lot of people to be at work here now.

Me and slowride were aiming to get a group of four to do some heists at about 8pm if anyone was interested.

That takes a month at least to fix. (wife had the same problem)

Its a stupid, convoluted process.
Basically you have to:

1.Make a new random microsoft account with a gamertag.
2.Wait 30 days.
3.Switch the email address from your xbox live account onto the new gamertag
4.Then transfer the xbox live account onto your gamertag.


Its so stupid, but you basically need a donor account in order to switch it over. You can't swap it.

I'm still on the setup for the prison breakout. I've managed to do the plane setup, and I've been struggling with the bus part. (well I haven't, but my retard players have)

I did one mission with the plane whereby I was the pilot, and one of the 'ground crew' tried to get into the plane, then ran into the propeller and killed himself.

Another two times on the bus setup the low level players stole my car, without letting me get in, so then I had to go and chase it down after booting them out. There really are some muppets out there who can't read a sentance of text. Its staggering.

Indeed, the hardest part is getting together a group of people who are willing to play as a team and persevere.

I have done the first 3 heists now, Fleeca bank job, Prison Break and Humane labs, all are excellent but it's so annoying when one of your team dies and instead of trying again they just leave the game, so you have to go through the whole rigmarole of trying to get another group together.

Add me 'lolleroosky' and i'll invite you to some heists. I've spent about 2 hours today just trying to get 3 other people who actually want to do a heist, absolute joke!
