The Big Score

Overview

The Big Score is the climactic heist of GTA 5, played with Michael De Santa, Franklin Clinton and Trevor Philips together. The crew robs gold bullion from the Union Depository using either a stealthy Subtle plan or an explosive Obvious one built around a gantry crane and a getaway train, and it stands as the game's most lucrative job by far. Gold medal on the Obvious approach asks for headshots on 20 enemies, a finish inside 16:00, dropping the gold onto the train within 30 seconds for the Cha-Ching bonus, and accuracy of 60% or higher. Since the crane and train timing are tight, learning the drop off point before you start the run helps far more than reacting to it on the fly. Done well, the Obvious approach with the best crew pays up to $41.6 million per protagonist, and the mission itself sets up the three possible endings that follow. Story details beyond that are kept spoiler-light here.
