There's a bunch of gold hidden in one of the Russian outposts in Alaska. Let's get that gold.
Cold Gold is a small, loud-only, one day custom heist created completely live with the help of the community in just 4 days.
After calculation, it took exactly 40:23:48 (h:m:s) to complete!

I had a great time building the continent with the people on stream. Thanks to everyone who joined the stream and gave suggestions!
The heist is playable in multiplayer.
P.S.: I'm not going to fix any bugs on this heist (unless completely game-breaking / game-crashing). I want the heist to remain exactly as made in stream.

All the suggestions I had:
- Driveable vehicles (forklifts)
- Gold loot
- Warehouse
- The number 42 (chopper delay is 42 seconds)
- Convert taking hostage
- Requirement to hack a computer
- Spawn in van (reverted to container spawn bc of navmesh issues)
- Russian cops (the only feature that didn't cut it - It's a Russian base now)
- C4 & explosions (explosive barrels)
- Requirement to find keys (keys became keycard)
- Required to secure more loot dependant on difficulty
- And maybe some more details I forgot! :S
