SAFE OR RISKY? Skilled crew members will demand a higher cut, whereas worse crew members are more prone to errors

Of course, you cannot do a heist all by yourself so you are going to need a crew to help you rob the casino.

During this heist, your crew will consist of a gunman, driver, and hacker. The latter is one of the most important roles for this heist, as the higher the skill of the hacker the more time you are going to have within the vault which equals more money.

The more skilled your crew is the bigger the cuts they are going to demand and in turn, will lead to less payout for yourself, so choose wisely.
