Alright, let's get this 'Dead Man Walking' mission done in Grand Theft Auto V. It's a bit of an infiltration job for the FIB, so stick close and we'll nail it.
Walkthrough
- 1First things first, hop into Michael's ride and head over to the 'B' marker on your map. That's your cue to kick things off.
- 2Once the opening scene wraps up, you'll need to press [X] to wake up. The moment you're up, take out the guard right in front of you using a stealth attack. Don't make a sound!
- 3Next, you'll need to find the body. Keep an eye on your map for those green dots – that's where you'll be searching.
- 4After you've dealt with the call, it's time to move up to the green dot on the 3rd floor. You'll have to take out any enemies in your path, so be ready. Once you reach the window, climb out to make your escape.
- 5Now, you need to lose the cops. Grab the nearest fast car and use those alleyways and tight spots on your map to break line of sight.
- 6Finally, once the heat is off, meet up with Franklin at the Oil Derricks. That's the end of the mission!

Tips for Gold
- Accuracy & Headshots: The weapons you find inside are pretty accurate, so aim for the head whenever possible. Using Michael's special ability will make landing those headshots much easier, especially when you're dealing with multiple enemies. Don't forget to use it!
- Mission Time: Skip cutscenes whenever you can. Try not to get cornered in rooms inside the building. Keep moving at a steady pace, clearing out threats as you go. If you're careful, hitting that 09:30 time limit is totally doable.
- Focused Killer: You should be using Michael's special ability anyway, but make sure you get at least four kills with it. It's a lifesaver when you've got more than one guard to deal with.
- Unmarked: This one can be tricky. Be cautious when moving between rooms and around corners. There's plenty of cover like walls and desks. Use Michael's special ability when you're breaking cover to avoid taking too much damage. Let the enemies come to you when you can, and always keep an eye out for health packs scattered around the building to keep your health topped up.
- Escaping the Cops: To lose the cops without taking damage, grab a quick car and use your map to plan an escape route that includes alleys and built-up areas. You can always switch cars once you've put some distance between you and them.
