LinkUp App Queue + Crime

FeedbackHigh Priority

Currently, the queues for jobs on the linkup app go one by one, with batches being pushed through and being on hold to stop the overflow of crime. Lower end crimes such as house robberies and crypto heists end up having some priority over larger heists. Once a large heist is first in the queue, all jobs are on hold until the cop count required is met for that one specific heist, stopping all crime flow including lower end crimes. 

For example: A group is one in queue for a Paleto and the cop count is not met, all jobs (house robberies, crypto heists, etc) would then be stuck behind in the queue which could last hours.

My first suggestion to solve this issue is reverting to the old queue system as it allows each job to have its own individual queue while allowing crime to flow and progress smoothly, keeping cops busy in the process.

If reverting to the old system is out of the equation, another suggestion could be something along the lines of having a tiered queue system for the different levels of crime. 

For example:

Tier 1: House Robberies, Crypto Heist

Tier 2: Fleeca Banks, Vangelicos
Tier 3: Paleto Bank, Drug Runs, Gruppe Sechs, Bank Trucks
Tier 4: Big Bank, Oil Rig

With these tiers, jobs would each be in their own unique queues, which would allow crime to flow smoothly without having long queue times.

    I think this is correct. Here you can see all current ques. When on the first screen it shows the correct que (1 for crypto, 4 for fleeca etc). However when you join ANY que it adds all the ques together - in the picture you can see the bank truck is out of 42 people - which is the total of all ques if you add them together

    This has lead to a stand still as the person who is 1st in the que is qued for Blaine County Bank which there isn't enough officers for. So there will be no crime until either this group gives up or they get the robbery.

    Sorry, this is not how the crime queue works. If the group first in line has a paleto and they don't meet the criteria, linkup checks all other groups in the queue until somebody gets a job.

      Then that system is not working properly and should be looked into. People on average just from what is being stated in general feedback channel are waiting almost 4-6 hours for a single house and sometimes not even getting one.

      I feel bad for new people flying into the city, as houses were considered low end crime, but it just feels like crime is at a stand still, and I know I am not the only one feeling this way.

      I am not sure this is currently working as intended. I was first in queue for the paleto bank for 2-3 hours yesterday during the 6pm EST restart. During this time multiple people told me the queue did not budge for house robberies, and fleeca banks until I was able to get the job.
