Security Contract: Asset Protection

Asset Protection is a security contract featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of The Contract update. It is a Free Mode mission that can be conducted in any session type by CEOs, VIPs and MC Club presidents.

Overview
Franklin Clinton will call the player outlining a client's assets that need to be protected for 10 minutes from destruction by attackers.

Scenarios
The scenario can vary. The 10 minute counter starts while the player is in their Agency office, rather than at the conclusion of Franklin's instruction after exiting the building.

The player has 3 minutes to get to the location before assets start automatically self-destructing, the first one with 7 minutes left and then irregularly (approximately every 35-40 seconds) until the player reaches the site to spawn the molotov throwing attackers. If the player has not made it to the site with between 1:10 and 1:30 remaining, the last asset will self-destruct and the contract will fail.

Wine Barrels
"'Ey, you know the Duggans? Man, there ain't nothing like that good old family money, huh? Who'd'a thought they'd come to lil' old us for help. Man, they got shit all over LS, but today we're talking about their place in Marlowe Vineyards. They must have pissed somebody off, because their shipment keeps getting clipped and they afraid the vineyard is the next target. Look, get up there and make sure nobody puts a hole in them fuckin' barrels."

- Franklin's description

Franklin advises that the Duggan Crime Family have interests that are being destroyed and they suspect their wine barrels at Marlowe Vineyards are next.

The player must travel to the vineyard where they will find the Duggan forces in Kamachos and Caracara 4x4s defending 10 barrels from waves of attacking Los Santos Triads. There will be two enemies in Fugitives and single enemies in Bati 801s and Hakuchous, which will target the player or any of the Duggan members.

Some of the attackers are marked with a flame icon and will arrive in Dubstas (two vehicles, two enemies each), indicating they will be throwing Molotov Cocktails at the nearest asset and will ignore the player.

Each barrel destroyed will reduce the payment received by 10%.

With one minute remaining, the player will be notified that backup is on the way and two helicopters will arrive on the scene.

Bugs/Glitches
One of the backup helicopters crashes most of the time. This seems to be due to it spawning with no pilot inside. Rarely, it may survive the crash and players can take it, though the engine will be severely damaged.

Sinsimito Cargo Crates
"Man, when is natural selection gonna take out these motherfucking bikers? We got a new client today... one of the state's biggest tobacco and booze importers. The Lost MC's been wrecking her shipments over at the Post Op loading bay. And the cops ain't goin' do shit, and she's terrified that it's gonna keep happenin' again... I told her that it won't, 'cause you'll be there, right?"

- Franklin's description

Franklin advises that the unnamed tobacco and booze importer's shipment is under attack from The Lost MC at the Post OP Depository in Elysian Island.

The player must travel to the depot where they will find the six SecuroServ guards with Rumpo Customs and Post OP Boxvilles defending 10 crates of Sinsimito from waves of The Lost MC. There will be four enemies in Gang Burritos and single enemies in Daemons, which will target the player or any of the SecuroServ guards.

Some of the attackers are marked with a flame icon and will arrive in Lost Slamvans (two vehicles, two enemies each), indicating they will be throwing Molotov Cocktails at the nearest asset and will ignore the player.

Each crate destroyed will reduce the payment received by 10%.

With one minute remaining, the player will be notified that backup is on the way and two helicopters will arrive on the scene.

Diamond Casino equipment
"Hey, so you know this lady called Agatha Baker? Man, I met her at some 40 under 40 event a while back.She runs shit over at the Diamond Casino. But anyway, look, she just got off the phone, and it turns out the Triads been hitting their shipments of chips and slot machines. We got some intel that they're gonna hit the whole warehouse next. The job is to head over there and protect all that shit, a'ight?"

- Franklin's description

Franklin advises that Agatha Baker has requested protection for The Diamond Casino & Resort's shipment of slot machines and chips which is under attack from the Los Santos Triads at a storage unit in La Mesa.

The player must travel to the warehouse where they will find the six Duggan Crime Family members with Kamachos and Caracara 4x4s and Gruppe Sechs Securicars defending 10 pieces of equipment (5 slot machines on pallets and 5 chip containers) from waves of Triads. There will be two enemies in Fugitives and single enemies in Bati 801s and Hakuchous, which will target the player or any of the Duggan members.

Some of the attackers are marked with a flame icon and will arrive in Dubstas (two vehicles, two enemies each), indicating they will be throwing Molotov Cocktails at the nearest asset and will ignore the player.

Each crate destroyed will reduce the payment received by 10%.

With one minute remaining, the player will be notified that backup is on the way and two helicopters will arrive on the scene.
