One of the most confusing parts of the Dirty Ice heist in Payday 3, is how you can open the Vault safe. The game does give you a clue about it. At the manager’s office, you can check the mail which explains why the security vault isn’t working. Here you find out that you need 2 people to give their input simultaneously. So depending on the difficulty you choose when starting the heist, things can get pretty tough. But worry not, here are the basics of what you need to do to open the vault.
How to Get Inside the Dirty Ice Vault in Payday 3
In order to open the vault safe of Dirty Ice Heist you will need the help of another player or NPC as explained in the mail. It requires one player to press and hold the button while the other uses the keycard. Do remember that this needs to be done simultaneously, so you cannot press the button and run around to use the keycard. Hence this is a two-player mission. Here is how you can access the safe:
- Check the vault to see what card you will require to open it.
- You can find this keycard in two places:
- Jewelry store’s Basement
- On Patrol guards
- Retrieve the keycard and go to the Manager’s room.
- If you are playing solo then take a civilian and push them against the red button. The button will now be active for a little while. Playing with another player will make this part a lot easier as they can hold the button at your signal.
- Run back to the vault and quickly use the keycard while it is still active.
If done correctly the Dirty Ice Vault should now open. You can now go inside and collect the valuable stone to increase the worth of your loot.
