Lately I've been trying to solo complete the hard difficulty of all the heists in order to get my 3rd Infamous mask, the Hard Skull. Problem is that despite my best efforts, my track record on a couple heists has been, shall we say, low.

Like how I was going along in Framing Frame day 3 swimmingly, just to opt to get rid of a guard who was irritating me. Except my Loco shotty kind of flung him over the balcony railing and to the street below as I peered over said rail, all the while his pager operator getting more and more irritated... Hysterical yes, but about as helpful for stealthing as running around with an unsilenced LMG being fired into the air and yelling "WOOOOOOO!!!!" at the top of your lungs.

So anyway, I've been watching videos from a guy I found on youtube on the heist, but I think a second pair of hands, or assistance in info that could ease my disturbingly hard time I've had with FF. It, along with Big Oil and the new Big Bank are the three jobs I haven't completed yet, but BO is beginning to come along now that I've gotten the idea of the engines figured out, and BB is brand new still. So anyone got some tips/time on their hands for FF?
 
Framing frame is a nice map, give a good amount of money, especially if you get the gold on day 3, plus if you do it stealthy it gives a 50% experience boost on the next map xD...
 
Framing frame is probably my single most hated heist.

Also, from my experience, Solo Big Bank Stealth you might find near impossible. 2 people is the very least to do it in a manner that doesn't take all day.
 
I like to do FF, I don't like the time we have to spend to do 3rd day... A minimal mistake and it's over... Bye gold. =/

Yeah, even the guy whose videos I've been watching hasn't done the heist with any less than 3 since it just makes things so much easier. So that one at bare minimum I'm going to do with people. Heck, nearly made it the other day on Hard until one guy decided to go all lone wolf and holed up in a different part of the vault lobby with his two ammo bags. After my Brenner ran out of ammo I had to switch back to my DEagle, which of course also ran dry quickly (I hadn't at that point read up on the Gruber Kurz yet, which I've been using since)... And once he went down it went progressively worse from then on until a dozer decided to come around the vault door and surprise the lot of us as nobody was in much if any armor.

THIS is the guy's youtube channel btw, if anyone's interested. He's currently using the HoxHUD addon, which is pretty nice. Just be warned, he does swear...
 
If you ever need help with a heist let me know. I have done FF solo stealth on all difficulties except DeathWish. FF used to be my favorite heist until they broke stealth. Now i play mastermind enforcer. Anyway stealth shottys are good for banks or maps where u need to ragdoll a guard out of sight from civilians or a camera before taking the pager. Maps where doing that is dangerous you should use a pistol or even melee them.
 
i solo stealthed it up to the point where you use the computer to open the vault, and then i got stuck literaly
 
Depending on where the vault is you can hit the button run down grab two bags and get out. To prevent that you can do the beginning stealth and then open it to public afterwards that way you can get the bags upstairs faster too.
 
I believe I'm now down to FF normal, Rats and Watchdogs Pro, and possibly Election Day normal for the last heists towards my hard mask.

Really wish the game had a checklist or something for the achievement so you could keep track of what you need/have done...
 
You can check it when you "buy" a map under contracts. It shows you how much times you did the map and in what difficulty... Just look it don't need to buy the map...
 
Ugh, going through all the heists in the contracts list ingame, I've done all of them except one. The one I can't buy (via the broker) right now.

Big Bank.
 
I almost completed framing frame solo. But the shortcut for the bags got bugged and the last bag got stuck in the shortcut and I couldn't move it at all!
