[PSA][PC-Solo] Cayo Perico Heist Replay Glitch Payout Capped between 4,183,620 and 4,189,970 every 30-minute window.

*Update (29/05/2021): Latest test results shows that the actual cap is between $4,186,630 and $4,187,520. This cap is still valid after the latest weekly update.

Disclaimer: $4,186,630 is the maximum total payout thus far that I successfully received after completing 2 heist replays within the 30-minute window. $4,187,520 is the minimum total payout whereby my 2nd heist replay didn't get the payout. The actual cap should be between $4,186,630 - $4,187,520. All payouts mentioned in this post are exclusive of Elite Challenge Completion Bonus. The heist replay glitch was done via the PC no-save exploit.

To Whom is the information for?

PC players running Solo Cayo Perico Heist replay glitch and players who seek efficiency in grinding. A few of y'all on PC doing the heist replay glitch might have experienced that you were not able to have the payout credited as consistent when compared to pre-panther release. For example, some reported that it's 50% of the time now or that the 3rd heist replay didn't receive the payout etc.

After a few hours of testing, I derived with the conclusion that there exists a total payout cap between $4,186,630 and $4,187,520 for a period of 30 minutes. The 30-minute window starts when you trigger the ending cutscene of your first heist replay and successfully receiving the payout.

This means that if the total payout of all heist replays done within a 30-minute window is less than or equal to $4,186,630, you will successfully receive the payout for all those heist replays that were done. If the total payout of all heist replays done within a 30-minute window is more than or equal to $4,187,520, you will not receive the payout of the last heist replay attempt.

​

Confusing? Here's an illustration to hopefully make it easier for you to understand.

Hypothetical situation:

(Start of 30-minute window) At 6.00am, I finished the heist and receive a payout of $2M successfully.

At 6.10am, I finish the heist with a payout of $2.2M (excluding elite challenge bonus). I will not receive this payout.

At 6.20am, I finish the heist with a payout of $2.18M (excluding elite challenge bonus). I will receive this payout.

(New 30-minute window) At 6.31am, I finish the heist with a payout of $2.3M (excluding elite challenge bonus). I will receive this payout.

How will this affect my heist replay runs now?

There's really little incentive to clear each run as fast as possible now. Just need to do 2 runs per 30 minutes instead of rushing to do 5-6 runs per hour. You will get around $4.1+M every 30 minutes doing the Solo Cayo Perico Heist replay glitch.

If you are replaying with Panther on Hard Mode, the total max secondary loot value for 2 attempts in the 30-minute window is $577,529 in order to not exceed the payout cap.

In my opinion, the elite challenge completion bonus isn't included in the 30-minute payout cap. So technically, $4.3+M would be the maximum income every 30 minutes doing the heist replay glitch. But, the lowest full loot bag amount you can get is around $360K with cash or art. Those running panther on hard mode would exceed the total payout cap if both replays completed the elite challenge. Unless you intentionally crash into trees to reduce the loot value, I would say that the realistic maximum income should be around $4.2+M every 30 minutes.

And last but not least, getting the cash from the secret safe in the office counts as secondary loot. The amount is random each time so I wouldn't recommend collecting it as it is better to have a fix quantity of a particular type of secondary loot in order to stay within the limits.
