You are CARLY, a prospective career criminal looking to make it big in the criminal underworld!

"Okay, what are we looking at?" Sam asks as you all gather in your still sparsely decorated safehouse basement, the only thing of note being the holographic display table you were all staring at.

"Well, we got a few time sensitive job opportunities!" Loki says happily. "I managed to find these first, so we gotta pick one before they get picked up by another crew!"

"Well, show us, then!" You grunt.

"Right, right." Loki says. "Job 1 is a straightforward armored truck hit. Someone got intel on the time and route of a high security armored transport. No word on what the truck's carrying, but I did a bit of haggling and we'll get a pretty generous 70% cut of any loot we recover. Job 2 comes from a local meth cooker. Seems like the poor sap got his mobile lab impounded for illegal parking. He wants us to try and recover his gear before the cops realize what they've got. He's willing to pay up to $400,000 for the safe return of his lab. Job 3 is from one of Hotel Moscow's associates. Apparently someone hasn't been paying up his protection money, and HM wants to get it back by any means necessary. Should be a quick and easy $200,000."

"Huh, they all sound pretty enticing." Sam nods and turns to you. "Carly, you got any preference?"

"Well, the armored transport hit sounds right up your alley." You grin.

"Hah, I figured you'd say that." Sam chuckles and turns to the others. "Artya? Lisa? Any objections?"

NONE.

"Nah, sounds good." Lisa nods.

"All right, it's settled, then! Now we got three issues to hammer out. Stopping the truck, breaking into the truck, and taking the loot." Loki says happily. "Now, it's time to start planning! Now, if you would please look at the holotable..."

You all look down on the surface of the table as it generates a three dimensional map of Delta City before zooming in on a specific section ,highlight the truck's path as a bright red line that snakes through the maze of roads crisscrossing the city.

"Now, I've run the numbers, and I think there's two areas where that truck is the most vulnerable." Loki says. "Here, when it goes onto the freeway, and here, when it needs to make a temporary stop in this downtown area."

"Hm, that's gonna be tough." Sam frowns. "The truck would be a lot easier to hit on the freeway. It's more isolated so help will take longer to arrive, but there's not a lot of cover and that isolation works both ways. Gives us less options for escape. Downtown affords us more options for escape."

"Yeah, but downtown is going to attract a lot of attention." Lisa frowns.

ATTENTION BAD. Artya agrees.

"We can hit it on the freeway." You say. "Much simpler and cleaner."

"Yeah, that's what I was thinking, too." Sam nods.

"All right, so the first problem stopping the truck!" Loki says. "You girls got any ideas?"

"Carly, you still know how to shoot a .50?" Sam asks.

"I think I know what you're implying and I'm liking it!" You grin.

"Wouldn't that mean she'd have to split up from us?" Lisa raises an eyebrow.

"We could always hire a sniper. Plenty of those on the market." Sam suggests.

"Yeah, but that costs money." You grunt. "And I won't be able to shoot it! Loki, what's the going rate for a good sniper?"

"About $50,000."

"We can get a vehicle and ram the truck off the road." Lisa suggests.

"Simple, but not guaranteed." Sam sighs.

>Wanting to pull an armored car job
>ON the fucking freeway

What is this, amateur hour? It's like you people don't watch heist movies! Haven't you guys seen Heat or GTA 5? You pull it right on the underpass so you have quick egress and minimize collateral damage and possibility of being spotted. Block the road with a garbage truck, sack the armored car with a larger truck with plenty of torque behind it. Blow the doors, deal with a potential big dude in the back, and get away scot free.

"Simple is often the best. We'll ram the truck off the road." You say.

"Hmmm, I guess." Sam sighs. "Okay, second issue. Opening it up. Those things are specifically designed NOT to be opened, after all."

"Well, the tried and true method is drilling the lock open." Lisa says. "I got one that can chew through it in a couple minutes."

ANYTHING FASTER? Artya asks.

"Well, I could use, uh, explosives. That's faster, but there's the risk it might destroy whatever is inside." Lisa warns.

Time is of the essence. We probably have only a couple minutes after bringing the truck offline to when the police show up. We'll burn a lot of the loose cash, but it means we'll have to prioritize the armored boxes inside teh back.

And for god's sake, don't use something exotic--that will be easily traceable.

"We'll drill the truck open." You say. "But let's bring some explosives anyways just in case."

"Right, right." Lisa nods. "I can bring along a drone, too. I can bring a flying one for aerial recon, or I can bring FRAG-E."

"FRAG-E?" Sam blinks.

"This little baby here!" Lisa smiles as she snaps her finger, and large, tracked robot rolls into the room. "FRAG-E is a multipurpose robotic platform! We can load up a heavy drill on it that can punch locks faster than the handheld models, or we can mount a heavy machine gun on it to provide some fire support!"

"Really, now?" You shoot a nasty look at Lisa.

"Well uh, I'm not implying it can replace you!" Lisa laughs nervously.

"Heheh, roger that!" Lisa grins. "We'll pop that door in no time!"

"All right, it looks like we've got a plan!" Loki chuckles. "Load up, girls, it's time to earn our pay!"

You and the rest of the crew head over to the armory. It's a bit too sparse for your liking, but it'll serve your purposes.

"All right, the truck isn't do to move until tomorrow morning, so we got all night to sleep on this." Sam grins. "But I think there's something that we should agree on as a crew before we do anything else."

"And that would be?" You ask.

"Our mask theme, of course!" Sam smiles. "We can't be a proper crew without a theme! All the most infamous crews had one, you know!"

"Heh, all right. I'll get to it." Sam smiles and winks. "Better get some sleep, everyone! It's gonna be a big day tomorrow!"

Sam climbs up the stairs leading topside, leaving you with Lisa and Artya.

"Well, I'm gonna have to go and attach the drill to FRAG-E and make sure it's working properly." Lisa waves as she heads for the workshop. "I'll see you in the morning, I guess."

WILL GET SOME SLEEP. MUCH LOOTING TOMORROW. Artya writes and she heads upstairs as well.

And with that you are left along. Guess you should go check out the armory. Like the rest of the safehouse, it was pretty sparse, but you still had more than enough hardware to work with. Going over your inventory, you see that you've got a few choices...

"All right, so does everybody know the plan?" Sam asks.

"Uhhhhh, just repeat it, for everybody's benefit." You say.

"Damnit, Carly, if you weren't listening at least fess up to it!" Sam sighs. "Okay, so once the truck gets on the freeway, me and Artya will block its path with our vehicle. Once it stops, that's when you hit it and knock it off the road. Then you look out for any response forces while Lisa cracks open the truck. Simple enough, right?"

"Yeah, simple enough." You nod.

"Hey guys, the truck's pulling onto the on ramp." Lisa warns. "Clock is ticking!"

"Okay, we're gonna get in position." Sam says.

You then see the truck Sam had commandeered pull off from the shoulder and take position in front of the armored truck. Sam's truck suddenly screeches to a halt as she slams the brakes, causing the armored truck to rear end her and halting immediately.

"Go go go!" Lisa repeatedly pats you on the shoulder.

"I'm going already!" You yell as you jam your foot on the pedal.

Well yeah, but I'm more wondering just HOW badly we fucked ourselves over. Because it's pretty clear none of these anons have ever exerted themselves while wearing a gas mask, and if we wind up in some shitty old thing where we can barely see or breathe, I'll be kind of butthurt.
>>39297310
I meant performance-wise. The old M40s are a fucking BITCH to try to do anything in, especially for extended periods, because your breathing is so restricted and your vision is all fucked up by the goggle factor. The new M50s still suck to do stuff in, but they suck way less.

Your van, with its armored prow, slams right into the side of the armored truck. Rubber squeals as the armored truck is pushed to the edge of the road, where it hits the curb and actually flips over onto its side. There was no way it could escape now.

"All right, go go go!" You yell as you hope out of the driver's seat and pull out your LMG.

Lisa meanwhile hops out of her seat and whistles. FRAG-E then bursts out the back of the van and immediately begins to work on the truck's lock, the heavy drill it's carrying causing an ugly grinding noise.

Meanwhile, the driver attempts to escape from the cab, only to be met by a smiling Sam as she points her handgun at him, indicating it was best that he stay inside. Artya takes up a defensive position behind an abandoned car, looking down the opposite end of the freeway.

You set up your LMG, and you can already see a number of black sedans and SUVs coming in. No doubt a quick reaction force for situations like these.

Your trigger finger twitches in anticipations, but you see a lot of civilians still in the line of fire, especially those who haven't quite grasped what was happening in front of them.

"Hey! Get the hell out of here!" You yell at the drivers and civilians still loitering in the area and fire a few bursts in to the air. You suppose that the filter in the gas mask you're wearing is also making your voice sound much more intimidating than it is. "MOVE!"

That convinces the civilians to actually start running. No sense accidentally pasting one and picking up more heat on yourself.

However, the QRF manages to get closer and their vehicle screech to a halt. You see roughly a dozen black clad men exit and dart from car to car in an effort to reach the armored truck.

Yeah... you weren't planning on letting them get anywhere close. You mount your LMG on the hood of a hastily abandoned car and take aim.

John Dillinger is well known for playing himself up as some sort of modern day Robin Hood during his bank robberies. Jump up on the counter, tell the people how you aren't here for their money, just the banks money, and how you don't want to hurt anybody if you don't have to, so if they'll all just lay down on the floor in one area where it's easy to keep an eye on them, so nobody does anything crazy and stupid, everyone can have a nice productive day out of this, and you can tell your buddies at work how you actually met John Dillinger, all that shit.

You riddle the cars in front of you with heavy automatic fire. The QRF operatives immediately halt their advance and dive for cover. You see hits scored on at least two or three of them, knocking them down. You couldn't tell if they were dead or not, but they were at least out of the fight. However, they still have a numbers advantage, and they start returning fire, bullets landing uncomfortably close to you even amidst your punishing suppressing fire.

"Fuck!" Lisa seethes as she ducks behind another car and blindfires her assault rifle over the top. A few stray bullets bounce off FRAG-E's armored shell, but the drillbot was otherwise unaffected.

REQUIRE ASSISTANCE? Artya's words type themselves on the HUD lenses in your gas mask.

Artya could help you flank these bastards, but that would mean leaving the other flank she's covering open, leaving Sam vulnerable to any attacks that might come that way. However, you needed a way to deal with these guys firing at you relentlessly.

Unfortunately, your LMG jams on you and your covering fire is interrupted, which gives the QRF guys the window they need to press their attack. The fire on your position intensifies, and you take a few hits on your armor. They feel like goddamn sledgehammers, pounding into your heavy chestplate. You're almost knocked on your ass but you stay on your feet.

"The truck is open!" Lisa yells as you hear the creaking of heavy steel doors. "You can fall back!"

Well, you could do that, but the truck was literally the last line of defense. Once you fell back there, there was nowhere left to go except try to bug out.

"You guys get the loot out! I'll try to keep them off you for a bit longer!" You grunt as you take cover behind the car and work to uncover the jam. You can hear police sirens over the gunfire, too, which wasn't a good sign. Your fingers shake and fumble as you reach try to replace the jammed ammo belt on your LMG.

"Yes!" You cackle as you finally clear the jam. You then mount your LMG back on the car and let loose another hail of bullets, forcing the security guys back.

"Guys, I hope you guys are ready!!!!" You yell.

"Last bag loaded! Get out of there!" You hear Sam yell.

"Yeah yeah, wait up!" You yell as you turn and dash back towards the van. You see Lisa and Artya at the back, providing covering fire. Bullets whizz and zip past you, but you run as fast as your legs can take you, despite being encumbered by your heavy armor and weapon. You swear you can feel some stray shots dig into your back armor, but you don't stop. You dive into the back of the van as, nearly falling headfirst onto FRAG-E, which loyally sits in the back of the van, surrounded by bags of money.

"GO!" Lisa screams.

Sam, in the driver's seat, slams down on the gas and the van goes screeching away. To discourage further pursuit, Lisa tosses her C4 charges out the back, causing a pair of massive fireballs that mask your escape.

"Ha! I can't believe we got away!" Sam laughs.

"Um, I don't think we have just yet." You grumble as you see a pair of police VTOLs swooping in...

Mmmmm, more like, I realize I just don't quite feel that same enthusiasm for HEIST as I do ACQ or PJW. Maybe the late start contributed but having actually run a few threads, it seems that the heisting spark just isn't there, at least for me.

>However, due to a number of factors, including lower than usual activity and things just not quite working out in actual practice than in my head, I might be ending HEIST earlier than anticipated. I'm just not quite feeling it here.

Clearly the answer is for me to play Payday 2 with you, with all the horrors that entails: Stealth missions with grenades, the hostages asking for it, me getting downed outside of cover three times in a row while doing stupid voices over chat.

It start with bang, but perhaps merging Heist verse with CIMQ verse kinda overwhelm him.

And honestly, Merc kinda had bad record with sequel. I won't surprised if his lack of enthusiasm actually comes from reusing same verse.

Eh, I have hope for it some what, I was excited to see the CIMQ cameos to be honest.

I just think that he just got out of the CIMQ universe but went right back in with HEIST.
