Multi-approach casino vault job — Rockstar's first 'big-budget' Online heist.
The Diamond Casino Heist is a heist introduced to in The Diamond Casino Heist update.
This heist may only be played while active in a CEO or VIP Organization or in a Motorcycle Club, as the CEO/VIP/MC President, respectively. The host must own an Arcade that has been set up in order to start The Casino Heist. The first time the player sets up the heist will be free of charge, however each recurring time will incur a charge of $25,000.
Similarly to The Doomsday Heist, the Casino Heist may be completed with a minimum of two players (a maximum of four), allowing for a larger payout (per player) once complete, if done with fewer players. Each Crew Member has a minimum cut of 15% of the Heist's earnings during the Finale.
Following the idea of the Doomsday Heist, Prep Jobs are featured in each approach of the Casino Heist, which are required in order to progress to the Finale. Prep Jobs may be completed seamlessly in public or private Freemode sessions. Players in other organizations have the option to steal the equipment from rival CEO/VIP Organizations and Motorcycle Clubs who are completing Prep Jobs. Each job can be completed by the CEO/VIP/MC President themselves without any other member in the Organization/MC, though it is not recommended.
Unlike previous heists, all setup and prep missions for the heist are done in Freemode, including both mandatory and optional setups/preps that can be completed to make the Finale easier on the crew. Another significant change is that Prep Jobs can now be performed in Invite Only/Friend/Crew sessions, eliminating the risk of any unwanted PvP action.
Similarly to heists, support crew members take part during the preparations; some familiar faces and other new members that can help to the crew with the approaches, with a range of equipment that affects the progression of the heist.
