I actually experience this often with randoms, but it was especially notable last night when I and a couple of kewl doods here were doing the prison break heist.

The cop glitch is if there's more than one player in a car, and at least one guy has a star. You'll never lose it until you split up from my experience, but since you can't leave the Velum, it's a pointless suggestion.

Anyone get this? Any solutions, especially for prison break?

Huh. Alright, I'll try that out.

 

so basically:

- lose cops beforehand

- laggiest player on demo

 

Losing cops beforehand, I can do. I'm an ace getaway driver. Since I'm in the Philippines, I'd proably get put in Demo, but I'll have to be honest, I have never done air fights. :(

Laggiest player on Demolition works.

 

My team failed twice due to lag, so we changed the roles and it worked with no problem at all.

 

The game seems to lag if there is a player inside the Velum that is based in a country with slower speeds, that causes the wanted level to never go.

Pardon my ignorance, but lag? How would lag be causing this glitch? It's just an In game glitch that has been around for a while, but the difference is you can't get out of the vehicles now so it's game breaking and rockstar has to address this issue..

I don't know what Internet speed jake has, but you, LN and G all have fast internet and are close enough together to not have an issue.

And not to mention when we are talking Internet speed related lag, your only talking up to a second delay otherwise you get disconnected..

I did the same job again today with BloodyNine, OG and DefaultBling.

 

Default is in Brazil.

What roles did each of you play and what happened? I'm guessing default was in the velum and couldn't lose the cops again?

I guess it may seem like a common factor when people are experiencing this issue, I just don't see how internet speed/lag could be causing it.

My guess is this:

- there are persons A and B in a vehicle

- person A goes off the radar, while person B, who's lagging a little is still in sight of the cops

- game uses some sort of compensation and also sees person A off the radar and person B still in sight of the cops, so puts both back on cops radar because they are both in the same vehicle

- now both are clear of any cops

- again, flashing stars (off the radar) trigger for person A 0.5s before person B and in that short interval game again sees person A off the radar and person B still not off the radar and again puts them both back on the radar triggering a never ending cycle

 

That's how I could explain this glitch. (not sure if you understood my lousy english lol)

At first Default was in the Velum - it failed twice.

 

We put Default in the Buzzard while the other players used the Velum - it worked.

 

A quick Google search told me it was a lag glitch - 3 people in the Velum will obviously connect with each other when it comes to losing the wanted level - If I'm the pilot and my game wants to lose the wanted level, but it takes too long to send that signal to Defaults game then the glitch occurs.

 

Default was even lagging during freemode, he was levitating  :lol:.

Thats the way I thought it would happen if it was to happen and it definitely seems to be the case..

From my understanding of how lag compensation works, all events should have a time stamp so even though you see different things, effectively they happen at the same time. So that's why I see you in the open but you think your behind cover and get killed. Effectively your in 2 places at once.

It does seem like the only logical explanation to this though. Because it's not PVP, lag compensation wouldnt be needed, and there is probably a rather significant delay that causes this loop.

I can verify the "non stop cop" glitch is still in effect. I'm running heists w/ kortnie, rudy & moorjc & we encountered the glitch stealing the casco for prison break.

 

That, we fixed by getting out of our vehicle, it triggered the *'s flashing. 

 

Funny thing is, when this happened we resorted to taking the subway tunnels w/ the casco & some how.... a goddamn heli spotlight kept sighting us, while we were in the subway tunnels. 

You could see the spotlight shining in the tunnel.

What is a given?... Is losing the cops the issue?

You can't lose them without getting out of the vehicle for a few moments until the stars start to flash. Hiding in the construction tunnel downtown or the tram tunnel by old Grove street didn't work. The stars didn't start to blink.

Yeah that seems quite frequent, even more so in heists.
