Over the years, Rockstar Games have added plenty of new heists to GTA Online, but there is none more lucrative than Cayo Perico. The job, which sees you leave Los Santos for a private island, was added back in 2020 and has remained popular ever since. However, in a bid to shake up the game\u2019s economy, Rockstar has made changes to the heist in recent months \u2013 mainly lowering the potential take that you can find yourself leaving the island with. On top of that, they\u2019ve also increased the setup costs from $25,000 to $100,000 \u2013 which isn\u2019t much, but is annoying \u2013 and changed the spawn rates of certain targets. We\u2019ve not seen the lucrative Panther Statue for a while, for example. GTA Online players believe Rockstar is \u201ckilling\u201d Cayo Perico heist Well, it seems players have finally had enough, and have accused the devs of wanting to \u2018kill\u2019 the heist because of the money they\u2019ve made off it in recent years. \u201cThey might as well just delete it from the game if they\u2019re that dead set on killing it,\u201d said one. \u201cI haven\u2019t played it in several updates now as unplayable as they made it, and it was barely playable before. UD makes less money, but it\u2019s actually decently fun and not a complete frustrating chore.\u201d Another agreed: \u201cIt really pains me to read about all the nerfs and unnecessary patches \ud83d\ude41 There are other viable moneymakers, but they will never measure up to OG Cayo.\u201d \u201cI\u2019ve moved on to making money in my nightclub, selling mixed crates for my business, delivering stuff to ammu-nation, and calling dude for the payphone hits\u2026,\u201d another disappointed fan commented. Rockstar are unlikely to revert any of the changes in full, but it\u2019s not out of the question that they could bump the payouts back up in the future. We\u2019ll have to wait and see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GTA Online players furious Rockstar is \u201ckilling\u201d Cayo Perico heist with nerfs Rockstar GamesGTA Online players have blasted Rockstar for \u201ckilling\u201d the Cayo Perico heist with a raft of nerfs and changes, claiming it\u2019s not really worth the effort anymore.
