The Dossier
1 min read
Part two of the handbook. One card per feature, written as the file the police keep on you, or the file the family keeps on the city. This is where the exact rules and formulas live. Every number comes straight from the game.
Part one, the basics in plain language, is in the handbook.
Crime combo
What it is
Keep pushing and you get rewarded. A streak of successful crimes in quick succession puts a bonus on the cash of your next job. The window is 110 seconds, counted from your last successful job.
Where to find it
Street tab, on the combo meter in the HUD.
How it works
Every successful crime within the window counts as a step, up to at most 4 steps.
Every step gives 3% extra cash on the next job. On a full streak that's 4 times 3%.
The streak bonus is part of the sum before Street rush, tuning and the critical hit (see Crimes). If a critical hit lands, the streak doesn't count on that job.
The streak drops back to zero when the window runs out, when a job fails, when you get busted, when you end up in the hospital or after a fight. Soft prestige wipes the streak too.
Costs, returns and limits
No separate price. The bonus comes on top of your crime cash.
