Credit Heist rewards

As far as I can tell Credit Heist shows no sign of being random. I have received 2.5 mil for every single heist (highest tier) for several months. There has been no variation whatsoever. Id like to know what is going on with that, and if it will be fixed.

    There's nothing to fix. 2.5 is most heavily weighted, which is why you get it so often. I've gotten 10mil one time since playing. Maybe 6 5mil and pretty much 2.5 every other time since.(with a handful of 1.5mil thrown in there)

    I've been getting a lot more 1.5s since it became simmable.

    Confirmation bias.

    It's not random, it's weighted, and 2.5m is the largest likelihood.

    Today I hit 7.5 total, the second time that's happened. I hit 5 total most of the time. Sometimes 4, and a few times 3.

    Nothing will be fixed because it's WAI.

    What ^ said. Almost every element of this game has weighted probabilities. In the case of Credit Heist, the range is 1.5 - 10 million, but the probability to get 2.5 million has been calculated at 85%.

    I tracked my credit heist results over 36 attempts (18 Credit Heists). My results were as follows:

    1.5mil - 2; 2.5mil - 31, 5mil - 2, 10mil - 1

    5.56%, 86.11%, 5.56%, 2.78%

    Lastly, if you think there is a flaw / bug in the system. I would recommend tracking your heists or whatever else it is that you feel isn't working as intended so you can present specific data. Chances are you've received 1 or 2 attempts with a different result, but misremember due to the overwhelming number of 2.5mil results.

    Opinion.
    getting 10M is impossible

    Falsehood.
    today l got 4M that is awful

    Be glad you didn't get 3M, which is worse.

    I just posted stats showing I got a 10mil and the probability of it dropping. Since my sample size is low, the percentage of achieving is probably inflated, but yes it is possible.

    I've never gotten 10M, but my sample size is low so my percentage of achieving is probably deflated. ;)

    I had:
    10 M one time only
    5 M two times
    1,5 M four times

    It's definitely not impossible... I practically screamed when this happened to me today.
