How Robberies & Special Robberies works
Robberies are larger, slower opportunities than ordinary street Crimes. They are designed around meaningful cooldowns and stronger rewards, so timing matters.
Standard Robberies
Robberies provide higher-value criminal activity on a longer cycle than the basic Crime system. Once attempted, the cooldown means you cannot simply repeat the same job continuously.
Special Robberies
Special Robberies sit above the normal tier with tougher requirements and significantly longer cooldowns. They are intended to feel like events you prepare for rather than routine clicks.
Preparation matters
Before committing, make sure your character has the resources, health, tools and time required. Failing a long-cooldown opportunity can be much more expensive than failing an entry-level street job.
Fit them into your routine
Because these jobs are time-gated, the best approach is to weave them into Crimes, Auto Theft, Racing, Smuggling, Missions and other systems rather than waiting on the page for a timer.
