After recognizing the GTA Online community's demands and requests, Rockstar made the Cayo Perico Heist solo. Players can take on the heist all by themselves as the Kosatka has been designed to be controlled by just one person. However, players may wonder what the disadvantages of going it alone are.
The Cayo Perico Heist is not only the biggest in terms of how much money the player will come away with, but also how much effort it takes to get through it. Not only does it take place in a location completely separate from Los Santos, but it also requires a lot of leg-work that can get pretty taxing.
Solo or with a crew? Which way must players lean regarding the Cayo Perico Heist in GTA Online?
Pros of going solo
One of the biggest reasons why players enjoy playing solo in GTA Online is that they would rather not deal with either of these things:
- Slow matchmaking
- Incompetent players
- Griefers
Therefore, to have a smoother GTA Online experience, players may go through the game all by themselves.
Another significant reason is that players will be able to keep whatever they steal from El Rubio all to themselves. With the exception of paying Pavel a small sum for his massive help during the heist, they won't have to divide the payout with anyone else.
Cons of going solo
The cons of going solo, especially in the Cayo Perico Heist, is that certain doors are locked behind security systems that can only be bypassed by a crew. Hence, in order to get the maximum payout, players will have to return with a crew.
Another major reason why going solo can be extremely challenging is that El Rubio's security can be ruthless, especially when trying the heist for the first time. Having other players to rely on is extremely reassuring and is always a wise choice, especially when stealth is crucial.
With the release of The Criminal Enterprises DLC for GTA Online, Rockstar has decided to nerf the Cayo Perico Heist. This nerf primarily affects solo players, as solo playthroughs now trigger a cooldown of 3 in-game days (144 minutes). Meanwhile, several other aspects of the game are now much more profitable than before. This was done on purpose so that players won't keep on grinding the same heist.
Is solo grinding an effective option?
So if players are looking to take the maximum amount of money they can from the heist, going in with a crew is essential. However, just to experience the heist as a solo player, one playthrough should be enough. After the recent nerf made by Rockstar, grinding the Cayo Perico Heist is not the best method to get rich quickly.
On the other hand, there are many alternatives to making money quickly in GTA Online. Every player-owned business is now much more profitable, with players having multiple career paths to choose from. The payouts for other heists in the game have also been improved; most of them now offer up to 75% more money than they did previously.
Since Rockstar wants to promote teamwork in GTA Online, going in with a crew is the best option for all heists now.
