Diamonds in the Rough walkthrough

Meet the Broker chapter

Ray gives you the job at Drusilla’s and you walk out to your bike. As you ride off, a call to Jim plays in the background, and the objective becomes meeting the other Lost members. Their blip is a blue-green dot on the radar. Follow the route line and open the throttle. Traffic is light at this hour, so you can take the first turns fast.

Johnny rides his chopper down a lit Algonquin street at night after leaving Drusilla's.

Johnny rides through the city with the phone showing a call to Jim.

Johnny leans into a turn on his bike with the objective to meet the other Lost gang members.

Lead the pack to the docks

You catch up with the Broker bikers on the bridge. Pull ahead and the objective changes to leading your brothers to the docks. The route line on the radar is yellow now and sends you over the bridge toward the waterfront in East Hook. The others fall in behind you, so you never have to wait for anyone. Keep the pace steady and brake before the bends at the far end.

Johnny rides across a steel bridge with two Lost bikers ahead of him.

Johnny rides on the bridge with the objective to lead your brothers to the docks.

Johnny passes slower cars on the bridge toward its towers.

Follow the road down toward the container yard. The blip sits among the stacks, and the deal is already underway. Stop short of it and let the scene play out.

Three men meet a cook in an apron beside a docked ship while one holds a briefcase.

Chase the limos

The deal falls apart and the buyers run for their cars. A red objective tells you to take out Tony’s boy. He is riding in one of the limos, and the other cars are escorts. Chase them back over Broker Bridge. The Broker bikers ride with you and shoot whatever they can reach, so your main job is to stay close.

Johnny rides up behind two dark cars with the objective to take out Tony's boy.

Johnny's chopper chases a car through a dark tunnel.

Johnny rides behind a limo with a taxi alongside on a night street.

Johnny chases a car along the lit span of Broker Bridge.

Pull alongside the cars and fire from the bike. Your submachine gun is already in your hands and works well at short range. Aim at tires and drivers rather than the bodies of the cars. Traffic on the bridge is thick in places, so slow down for a moment instead of clipping a taxi and going over the handlebars. If your health runs low, ride beside one of your brothers to refill it.

Johnny rides his chopper along a lit bridge in pursuit of the cars.

Johnny shoots from his bike beside a pickup truck on the bridge deck.

Johnny rides toward a stone arched bridge entrance at night with a car ahead.

Johnny aims his weapon from the bike down a night street in Chinatown.

The limos run down into Chinatown. Keep pushing, and they stop on a quiet street near a jewelry store. Evan jumps out and runs. Get off the bike and shoot him from where you stand. Pistol shots from a few steps away are enough, so you do not have to chase him far. Kill him on dry land, because the diamonds are lost if he goes down in water.

Johnny rides through Chinatown streets lined with glowing lanterns.

Johnny rides down a dark street lit by a green glow.

Johnny pulls up next to a stopped black limo outside a jewelry shop.

Johnny aims a pistol down the street at a figure running away.

Pick up the diamonds

Walk over to the body and pick up the diamonds. The game marks them in green. As soon as you have them, Ray phones you, so take the call. He wants the stones split between two trash bags that his people will collect later. Stay close to your bike, because you need it for the rest of the mission.

Johnny stands by his bike while the phone shows a call from Ray.

Johnny talks on the phone beside his bike and the black limo.

Stash the diamonds

Climb back on your bike. The objective is to stash the diamonds in two trash bags, and a blip on the radar marks the first one. The route runs through the blocks of Little Italy. Ride to the marker and pull up beside the bag to leave half of the stones.

Johnny rides toward a crossing on a lit street.

Johnny turns a corner on his bike past a brick building.

A second blip marks the other bag. Head there and leave the rest. The last stretch runs past the big shops in the Triangle. A car of Tony’s bodyguards can turn up while you stash, so keep an eye on the radar and shoot them before you finish the drop. Your brothers peel off once the last bag is done, and the mission ends without a cutscene.

Johnny rides past parked cars with the objective to stash the remaining diamonds in the other trash bag.

What fails this mission

Besides dying or being arrested, the mission ends if any of these happen:

One of the Lost members dies
Evan gets away
The diamonds are lost in the water

After the mission

No money comes from this one. Ashley calls to say Ray will pay once the diamonds are sold. Collector’s Item, which sells them, is not open yet. Finish Roman’s Holiday first, then Ray calls you with the next job.
