A Big Job involves a group of Characters doing a number of related Jobs, and then combining them into a single Big Job Template, and posting that on the Official Timeline.

A Big Job has two components:

Side Job
Group Job

Side Jobs are smaller related Jobs that either prepare for, or deal with the aftermath of the Group Job.

Group Job is where multiple Characters must perform the primary component of the Big Job together in-game.

Lets take for example a Heist. Side Jobs will be things such as Scouting the location, preparing getaway vehicles, storage, alibis, weapons etc. Its up to the Character who puts it together to make sure that it makes sense. The Group Job component of a Heist Big Job, would be the heist it self, in which there are minimum requirements, primarily the number of Characters performing it. Both the Side Jobs and the Group Job would then be made into individual Image Journals or Videos, and then using the relevant Big Job Template below, would be posted onto the Official Timeline.

There are no Turf, Backroom or Character Bonuses for Big Jobs.

Types of Big Jobs:

Quick Deal
Heist
Large Drug Operation
User Created Big Job

Quick Deal:

Overview:
Two Groups of Characters agree to make a Quick Deal, It is often drugs, but can also be other valuable items. One Party is the Buyers and the other is the Sellers. They are both essentially middlemen, with one procuring a finished made product, and the other receiving that product and wholesaling it on to another NPC group/ or Backroom Business(es). The Two groups must meet in-game at the same time, to perform the Group Job component of the Big Job. They must exchange items to make the Deal, and then everyone must leave.

MINIMUM Requirements:

The Sellers must have TWO or more Characters in the Group Job.
The Buyers must have TWO or more Characters in the Group Job.
One Criminal Group, such as a Mafia or Crew, cannot have members on both the Buyers and Sellers Side. (It could be any other combination of Characters, such as 1 guys from a Gang and one lone Criminal selling to 3 guys from a MC etc)

A Deal will currently earn this number of Points total: 70

Note: In the Group Job, there needs to be a visual representation of the transfer of goods to make the deal. Here are a number of ways of doing this, which way you do it should be discussed before hand with both parties agreeing to the method:

Gas Container or Parachute drop off. The Sellers exit their vehicles and walk over and drop their item on the ground, or put them in the back of a Buyers car, or the Buyers come over and pick them up, and put them in their vehicles.

Ideally, both would occur, ie the Buyers would drop off the Parachutes with the money, and the Sellers would then drop off the canisters with the product.

Vehicle swap. Perhaps the valuable items are in the boot of a vehicle. It could be swapped over during the meet perhaps for another vehicle with the money, or for parachutes etc.

Its up to the imagination of the Big Job creator to come up with a realistic and exciting method of swapping money for valuable items. However, both Parties must be in the same location and make the Deal 'face to face'.

The Side Jobs for a Deal should provide the backstory of the Items, and show what is being done with them after the Group Deal.
Each side will have to do one Side Job.

Sellers - Before they can sell the valuables to the Buyers, they need to do a Side Job showing them getting them. Or in the case of Meth, making it.

Buyers - After they have bought them from the Sellers, they need to do a Side Job showing them storing or selling the valuables wholesale.

Once they are done in that order, they can be collected and posted.

Heist:

Overview:
A Group of Characters get together to plan out and perform a Heist, such as robbing a Bank, Train or Art Gallery. A number of Side Jobs must be conducted first, and then the Group must perform the Heist together in-game at the end. The Heist it self must show the valuables being stolen, and then safely taken to a predefined hiding place and stored. No Police (or even NPC's) should be able to see where the Valuables are taken.

MINIMUM Requirements:

The Heist Group Job must be committed by 4 or more Characters, in-game at the same time.
The Characters don't have to be from a Criminal Group. Any Combination of Characters is fine.

A Heist will currently earn this number of Points total: 70

Note. In the Group Job, there needs to be a visual representation of the transfer of goods to make the Heist. Here are a number of ways of doing this, which way you do it should be discussed before hand, with the Characters involved agreeing to the method:

Gas Cannister or Parachute. A Character could run to a Vault, equip a parachute backpack or a cannister, then run to the getaway van and remove it (as if putting it in the van). and repeat this a few times. This will show that items of value are being taken from the location of the Heist into the possession of the Criminals.

Vehicles. Perhaps the heist involves the stealing of vehicles (that may or may not contain valuables inside them) such as a truck carrying drugs for a NPC group, or an armored Truck etc.

Its up to the imagination of the Big Job creator to come up with a realistic and exciting target and method of stealing it. Put some thought into it. What disguises will you wear, like helmets or masks etc.

Although not a requirement, it is HIGHLY ENCOURAGED for there to be as little shooting, particularly with Police, as possible. Having this as the aim will truly increase the enjoyment for the other Characters participating, and increase the immersion and realism and adrenalin. If a Cop is shooting at you, only shoot back if your LIFE depends on it. Take all other evasive maneuvers first. Remember its a heist, not an invasion.

The Side Jobs for a Heist should all involve the preparation and planning of the Heist. Jobs like scouting out the location for the Heist, bribing a security guard, Preparing the warehouse to store the goods in, spray painting and re-plating getaway cars etc.

Once the Side Jobs are completed, the Group Job should be completed in-game. Once its all complete, copy and paste this template below in the  Official Timeline.
