A Big Score Mission Location¶
There are a few things you’ll need to do before you can start the A Big Score side mission, the first of which will be locating and making your way to the Slag Heap, this is the settlement for this region and where you’ll find a bunch of Side Missions. If you follow the Answers Come at a Price main mission, you’ll eventually be directed to the Slag Heap to meet with Diode, situated to the northeast of Garbage.
You’ll find the Car Park to the southeast of the Slag Heap.
The person you’re looking for though, for A Big Score, is Zakhar Babay, who is standing near the exit of Slag Heap. When you speak to him initially, he’ll mention he has a job for you and to come back later. We wasn’t able to progress this until completing another side mission, No Honor Among Thieves and then sleeping in the bed. This time around, Zakhar will give you the mission, asking you to provide some muscle while dealing with a debtor, sounds simple enough, right?
Meet with Zakhar’s Men at the Car Park¶
If you’ve already completed the mission above, then you’ll be somewhat familiar with the surroundings of where Zakhar’s men are holed up. The Car Park is located just south of the warehouse you hit up during 
No Honor Among Thieves, so retrace your steps for the most part and then enter the area around the mission objective, just remember to have a powerful weapon at the ready.
In what can only be explained as the most obvious set up ever created, you’ll discover that you’ve been duped by Zakhar and demanded that you hand over your Coupons so you can walk away. Fortunately, as you overhear, they don’t really have any intention of letting you leave here alive, so decline the offer of handing over your Coupons and choose to attack.

Kill the Bandits¶
The first thing you should do is dash out of your current position, you’re wide open and will be quickly gunned down with no chance to retaliate.
