The new GTA Online release accompanying the Diamond Casino & Resort, represents the largest and most broad update to date within GTA online. This course provides the first hand insight into what you may need to know to enjoy all the assets of the diamond facility. Some of the subjects covered here include securing casino entry, playing co-op missions, trying all gambling options to get a substantial win, personalizing your penthouse to make it the new place to stay, uncovering all hidden collectibles, and acquiring new stylish vehicles.
Obtaining Entry to The Diamond Casino
In a parallel way to previous DLCs like the “Further Search of Singles and Stocks” the new content of the Diamond Casino area requires a kind of starting investment. Contrary to the other updates where purchasing specific places such as offices and bunkers was a requirement, for this one the Diamond Casino stands out as being different. In fact, no matter how many shark cards players bring into the game, owning the casino at the end is still impossible. Instead, only memberships can give you entry into the casino’s gaming life. The Standard Diamond membership that wouldn’t cost you all that much, gives you an access to the casino and some of gambling activities only but you are also able to keep your car in the Diamond’s garage.
The only way to achieve a holistic experience with the premium rooms and plush services, high-limit tables and all is to have a VIP membership and as you can imagine this comes much more expensive. This upgraded premium option will have players living in a luxurious penthouse which can be customized with private spas, party areas, roof garden access, and a range of priceless artworks, among others. Additionally, it is a platform for VIP high rollers with access to private tables at the casino, and never-ending arcade games at the vintage arcade. It doesn’t matter the lavishness of perks and privileges this club brings, the true key to the perfect GTA Online experience is by the hand of the Diamond Casino Missions.
Casino Missions
Right after VIP membership is purchased on GTA Online, the players are offered two types of missions to choose from. The co-op missions are a part of a narrative that involves Tao Cheng, the owner of the Diamond, trying to drive off a Texas oil tycoon who threatens his business. Along with his known but hated antagonists, players are particularly requested to tend to Cheng’s unmet needs.
The new campaign of six cooperative missions starts, where the first three quests bring more rewards. The most typical rewards for doing these jobs are respectively between GTA$11,000 to GTA$15,000, depending on how much time you take to do these jobs. Besides that, the initial mission completions are profitably rewarded, the first one offering GTA$50,000 and the final one with GTA$100,000.
Co-op missions series consists of:
- Loose Cheng
- Housekeeping
- Strongarm Tactics
- Play To Win
- Bad Beat
- Cashing Out
Having completed all six missions one after the other, in one go, the host gets a special reward of their own, namely by obtaining the Enus Armored Paragon vehicle from the docks, which can only be done by those who passed the missions and it can’t be obtained by any other way.
On the other hand, there is a brilliant additional reward of GTA$500,000 for taking on the missions in order and finishing them on your first try. Failure to do them in order or do them out of sequence means that you will never get this bonus just one time. This one-time payout is in addition to individual mission completion bonuses and an additional GTA$50,000 for flawlessly completing each mission without dying.
Casino Work
In GTA Online further quests are able to be asked for from Agatha Baker. These missions are one-man missions with set duration, ranging between 2 to 15 minutes, and the mission type will be randomly selected for each session. The completion of the task earns a player a Chips prize of 5,000 and a GTA$5,000to GTA$10,000 reward depending on the length of the mission. We currently have at least 14 vetted mission variations on offer, with a 3 minute hidden cooldown in between each activity. The targets are also perfectly randomized to stay competitive. Eventually, you will reap a GTA$ 180,000 bonus upon the completion of 50 Casino Work Missions.
Gambling
Naturally, you will spend most of your time at the Diamond Casino trying your luck at the numerous gaming tables. There is a limitation of games available for competition, as players interact only against the house. These games are customized for the mini-game so the players do not need to be experts in Blackjack or Poker rules as the games provide the guides for instruction.
Sometimes chips, GTA$, and items are earned playing online slots and table games. On other occasions, they can be lost. Responsible gambling should be practiced not only by the gamers but particularly for the Shark Card buyers. The range of gambling sites not on Gamstop comprise Online Slots, Blackjack, Three Card Poker, Roulette, Lucky Wheel and Inside Track with its individual excitement and abundance of choices for the viewers.
In these mini-games, chips are the currency of the game and without multiplayer options. Chips can be bought with GTA$ and converted in-game anytime the player leaves the tables. Once the Standard Diamond Membership is acquired, new players are given a gift of 5,000 chips at the casino entrance, as well as every player is at liberty to claim 1,000 bonus chips every day. Conversion rate from Chip to GTA$ is 1 Chip = 1 GTA$.
Players are allowed to buy up to 50,000 chips a game day that corresponds to round about 48 minutes in real time. For those looking to bypass this limit, a workaround exists: The timer is reset by the following procedure: buying the maximum amount of chips, disconnecting from the internet, reconnecting, and returning to GTA Online. The technique is implemented in order to expand positively the overall playing time and the strategic aspect of the casino environment.
Casino Store
The Diamond’s new addition, The Casino Store, gives a chance to the players to purchase exclusive items from the wide-ranging stock. From now on, the Casino Store will have unique apparel not available anywhere else and you can use Chips to upgrade your penthouse accessories. Currently, the total value of all artworks available in the store is a very healthy 3,926,050 chips. Since an hourly maximum of 50,000 chips is available for purchase, it would be more than 64 hours of gameplay to buy the chips for the complete shopping spree.
Penthouse
Getting a VIP membership will let you use the diamond’s peak, called Master Penthouse, as your private room, any time you visit the establishment. This apartment is much more than a personal property as it is also the most suitable place to respawn anytime with all the customizable features available. Through selecting one of the furnishing styles and décor available and to add the final touch to your space with prime artworks sourced from the Casino Store the customization options are endless. Next, you can upgrade your penthouse with the several modules like a character stylist and a spa within it or you can have a party area full of interactive things fit for entertaining guests. When fully upgraded, the penthouse at the top floor is a dream, costing a cool GTA$ 6,533,500. From the “Cash Pad” penthouse, which is available for GTA$ 1.5 million, the “Party Penthouse” penthouse for GTA$ 3.78 million (not available in regions without gambling features), to the “High Roller” penthouse and the option for the players to design their own customized penthouse at the price of GTA$ 1.5 million.
