Sound of Silence Complete The Alesso Heist without killing anyone. Unlocks the "Boombox" mask, "Enlightenment" material and "Alesso Logo" pattern. |
When attempting this achievement no enemy or civilian may be allowed to die by any means, however dominating an enemy is allowed. It is suggested to disable the AI team-mates, because their kills also count. If players are detected during the casing escape, it may be possible to survive long enough for the van escape to arrive without killing anyone.
Even Steven In The Alesso Heist job, get your seven bucks back. Unlocks the "Cantus" mask, "Bionic" material and "Circle Raster" pattern. Note: This achievement refers to the parking meter in the basement. |
In order to complete this achievement, players must use a single C4 charge (not shaped charge) to detonate the parking meter in the garage. Contrary to the description, it is actually a ticket dispenser rather than a ticket machine, which is bright orange and located next to the garage door underneath the vaults; the model is identical to the orange ticket machines found in Hoxton Breakout. The C4 charge can only be placed on the ticket dispenser after the alarm is raised, and only on Normal or Overkill difficulties, as those are the only difficulties which leave players with an extra C4 to use.
Fuck It, We're Walking In The Alesso Heist job, complete the heist in loud without using the zip-line or bag chutes on the OVERKILL difficulty or above. Unlocks the "Female Concert Goer" mask, "Stained Glass" material and "Soundwave" pattern. |
There are a number of viable strategies for this achievement:
- Run most of the heist in stealth, bringing the bags as far upstairs as possible, then raise the alarm by killing a fifth guard and load the bags and escape as quickly as possible.
- If going loud, either :
- bag the loot and then retreat from the basement - the cops will tend to move lootbags to the middle of the main stairs;
- throw the bags from the central tables and catch them from the balcony above;
- or, have a player jump down on to the pink awning over the t-shirt kiosk, then throw bags up to them then up on to the balcony.
M.F. Stev In The Alesso Heist job, complete the pyro sequences without failing even once. Unlocks the "Male Concert Goer" mask, "Dim Blue" material and "Smoke" pattern. |
Unlike most achievements, the difficulty in mastering the pyrotechnics show lies in the lack of explanation. Despite being instructed by the intercom to hit the buttons as soon as you're told, players must wait for around a second after the order for Bain to confirm which specific button(s) must be pressed but players cannot wait too long.
On higher difficulties Bain will tell players to press two buttons, although the order is not important.
Note that on loud, when parts of the pyro rig can break and need repairing, be sure to complete those actions before pressing the pyro buttons.
