Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Diamond Casino Heist easier with friends?
Yes. Extra players reduce the number of guards you must handle and unlock higher challenge bonuses that increase the final payout.
Can I switch approaches mid-prep?
No. Once you select an approach and complete any prep mission, you are locked into that route for the finale.
Do solo players receive the same elite challenge rewards?
Some elite challenges require a minimum crew size; others are open to solo players but offer smaller bonuses.
What happens if I die during the finale?
You lose the heist and must restart from the planning board; any prep work remains intact.
Are there special outfits for solo runs?
No. Outfits are cosmetic only and do not affect mission difficulty or payout percentages.
