How to play the Doomsday Heist
Starting the Doomsday Heist is a little different to most other Heists. Players need a facility that is purchased from Maze Bank. Facilities are costly, starting at $1.25 million if none of your friends or allies owns one already, but you’ll earn your money back from a successful heist.
Once when the player hosts the Doomsday Heist, they will begin the setup missions, which will have players out in free roam getting tools they need to start the job. Some of the setup missions eat out of the host’s pocket, so be warned.
From there, the real story of the heist begins. The main missions of the Doomsday Heist are broken down into acts, which are story-based missions leading up to the payday mission.
The Doomsday Heist has you going through 12 hours of content, with Act 1 having you steal ambulances to get inside of places in aims of targeting data in an IAA base.
Act 2 is all over the place with hard drive collections, going underwater in submarine cars and going airborne. The Act can be challenging at times, but easy at other times.
Act 3 is the payday mission, that is difficult at the beginning and the end. There and juggernauts at the start that can cause issues, so use whatever you have got at them. Towards the end of the mission, players are flying bombers and surviving in the air can be tricky for inexperienced pilots.
