Mission Objectives and Walkthrough
Upon purchasing Rob's Food Warehouse, you'll trigger the mission. The core objective is to survive several waves of enemy assaults. These attackers will arrive in vehicles and on foot, attempting to breach the warehouse defenses.
- Initial Defense: The first wave usually consists of a few cars. Equip a reliable firearm, such as a Uzi or shotgun, and take cover near the entrance. Prioritize eliminating the drivers first to prevent them from bailing out and engaging you directly.
- Increased Intensity: Subsequent waves will bring more vehicles and a higher number of enemies. You might need to move around the warehouse perimeter to cover different entry points. Use the environment to your advantage, such as the crates and walls for cover.
- Vehicle Assaults: Be prepared for enemies to use Molotov cocktails or even attempt to ram their vehicles into the warehouse. If you have access to a rocket launcher or grenade launcher, this is the perfect time to use it to destroy incoming vehicles before they reach the warehouse.
- Final Wave: The final wave is typically the most challenging, often involving armored vehicles or a larger concentration of heavily armed gang members. Stay mobile, utilize health pickups if available, and don't hesitate to switch weapons to adapt to the situation.
Tips for Success
- Weapon Choice: A combination of a rapid-fire weapon for close-quarters and a more powerful weapon for vehicles is ideal. Shotguns, Uzis, and even the SMG are good choices for infantry. For vehicles, the Rocket Launcher is king.
- Health and Armor: Ensure you have full health and armor before starting the mission. Look for health and armor pickups within the warehouse area if you get damaged.
- Positioning: Don't stay in one spot. Move between cover points to avoid being an easy target. The warehouse has several good vantage points.
- Asset Management: After successfully defending the warehouse, it will begin generating income. Visit it regularly to collect your earnings and reinvest in upgrades or other assets.
