DavidCore89 7,402 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 (edited) I don't know much about this game mode. Sometimes when I try to look at challenges it says there are no challenges available, other times there will be many challenges available often with names such as 'easy money' but I cannot even load the challenge when I press 'X' on the challenge. I was once invited to a challenge in the crew I was in before XDBX, I was a straight line with a ramp and I banked 250K in seconds - I'm not looking for an easy payday but I just wanted to win some crew challenges to help the crew progress on that leaderboard and maybe win some cash along the way. So far XDBX has won 4/5 challenges, no idea who did them but I would like to win some too and I'd be grateful if anyone knows the full details of how this game mode works. Thanks. DC89.

JustHatched 12,103 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 I am not sure how they work, I have done 3 but don't know when they appear. Most of the time none are available.

Muskidinho04 37 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 from what i've heard if you can get them to work you can make massive amounts of money. i know if you just beat the challengers time you win the money. some of the challenges have crazy fees to get in. highest i've seen was 10mil(back in the billionaire days). though recently i saw one for around 500k. though i don't know how you join them or make them I am not sure how they work, I have done 3 but don't know when they appear. Most of the time none are available. for us in the US its really early in the morning, between 2am-4am from what I've heard from some people.

DavidCore89 7,402 Posted May 8, 2014 Author Share Posted May 8, 2014 Strange, I won 100K twice and had the cash. Won it a third time by more than a minute and it said 'loser' and took 100K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkenburger 57 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 I did some searching on Google and one of the top results was this topic Otherwise I read: people modded the winnings to millions instead of thousands so Rockstar closed it. Also I read people seeing it popping up once and again (on PS3) making loads of cash. It looked legit so I say: Keep an eye on it everybody!

DavidCore89 7,402 Posted May 8, 2014 Author Share Posted May 8, 2014 I wouldn't do it, I won and still lost 100K even though I beat the time, I'm up 100K but there is still a problem with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkenburger 57 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Right, should definitely have mentioned the lower payouts (around 40K) can be completed without target time at all. If you find one of those you can grind the hell out of them, way more efficient then any mission apparently.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidCore89 7,402 Posted May 8, 2014 Author Share Posted May 8, 2014 (edited) Seems to be the Criminal Records challenges that steal your money from you even though you beat the time. Just won a 20K challenge on a different track and kept the money. Right, should definitely have mentioned the lower payouts (around 40K) can be completed without target time at all. If you find one of those you can grind the hell out of them, way more efficient then any mission apparently.... Cool, so don't do the high challenges?

Valkenburger 57 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 (edited) Apperently, it might be a myth but this is what I found: "I've found challenges that pay up to $40 000 doing the race solo. And I have seen many players complain they do not get the cash, but I made about 400k off the one which was the mega epic jump. It takes 23 seconds to do the race and you need to beat the 2 minutes it set at. Pretty much easy - 40k was given to me per win. I just got greedy and attempted the 200k one twice, won and lost the 400k. But with the lower amounts it does payout for me." And later: "I'm on PS3 and I've been seeing them the last couple of days now. From $1000 through to $250 000. This morning I managed to get about $500k off a $25k one doing a loop race by the casino multiple times. Was about a minute and a half including load time to complete and I grinded it until it disappeared off the list. All the ones that are $40k and below can be done solo and the money sticks. I've tried a $250 000 one and the cash does not stick on solo so you'll need someone to leave that session. I've seen 100k ones but I have not tried them solo yet so perhaps the limit for solo is more than 40k." Again: not completely sure it's true but it sounds legit because of the context: http://gtaforums.com/topic/703138-challenges/ Halving the time for grinding missions should be worth having a look at anyways :-) Would be like the double payout in a way... I'll definitely keep an eye on it anyways. Edit: David, could you grind that 20K race you won? Edited May 8, 2014 by Valkenburger 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidCore89 7,402 Posted May 8, 2014 Author Share Posted May 8, 2014 Awesome, the 20K race was not back again but when it is I will do it a few times, if I invite all crew do we all get paid if we all beat the time? I've won a bunch of them now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkenburger 57 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Don't know anything else, I've never seen it popping up at all so far... I think you need to have the fastest time though, if you invite and beat people they should loose money I expect. But that's purely speculation...

Muskidinho04 37 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Is the prize just your stake in return, or do they return your stake plus the prize? i think if the example you gave you just need to have 100k but i've heard stories where it works the best is if you just beat the time set. if you crush the time set you could lose money Don't know anything else, I've never seen it popping up at all so far... I think you need to have the fastest time though, if you invite and beat people they should loose money I expect. But that's purely speculation... trying to remember what i was told about this but i believe as long as everyone beats the set time for the challenge every one should get money. not to sure though. i'd say your best off doing these challenges when they work by your self Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidCore89 7,402 Posted May 8, 2014 Author Share Posted May 8, 2014 Just did a good motorcycle challenge, had to escape the military base, only just won the 18K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidCore89 7,402 Posted May 8, 2014 Author Share Posted May 8, 2014 100K in less than 30 seconds - the challenge is called 'EASY $100000 CA$H FA$T' It's just a straight line with GTA boosts which is simple to complete for anyone. Be sure to have 100K out of your bank in order to start it. Enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidCore89 7,402 Posted May 8, 2014 Author Share Posted May 8, 2014 In case that one is not available, there is one called 'g'. Not as much time to spare on this one and there is a corner at the end but 100K again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
