How to unlock the Too Big to Fail achievement in The Long Dark - Definitive Guide

missable Unlocked during episode 1 while in the town of Milton.

Firstly you will need the bank managers key so go to the bank and find his house key. once retrieved locate his house, its in the small back row down from mothers and has Canadian Flag flying outside. Go to his bedroom and pick up the Vault Code from near his bed.

head back to the bank and use the code. Opening the vault is tricky, you need to turn the dial clockwise slowly when you hit the right number you hear a click, then turn it anti clockwise until you hear another click then clockwise again.

Once you open the the vault up, loot all the Saety boxes that are unlocked but you will see 4 are locked. 1 is locked as part of the story with Grey Mother but the other 3 need to be opened for the achievment.

Key number 7 in a house in milton, from the Bankers house run over the other side of the street until you reach a house directly oppiste, the key is under the bed. The house's front door faces the bankers front door, they are opposite each other but quite far away.

Key 13 From the Farmhouse follow the cliffs you will hear the crows and then see a frozen human corpse carrying the key. This one is tricky.

Key 20head to the gas station, behind the gas station keep heading up and you will see a blue car near to blue portable toilets, the key is inside the car.

The achievement unlocked for at this stage however there is a final key you need to find for Grey mother, it is in the farm house in an urn on the bedroom mantle, you can only collect it when grey Mother requests it, however I did not need that for the achievement.

here is a video incase you struggle finding the key on the corpse.

Missable

To unlock the large vault in the Milton Bank: Get the Bank Manager's Key in the Milton Bank, then go to the Bank Manager's House (marked with a Canadian flag) — the combination is next to the bed.

Key #7: Milton House – In the house opposite the Bank Manager's House, look in the box under the bed.
Key #13: Southern River – Follow the river west of Milton, and walk the eastern bank south. Almost at the edge of the map, look for crows flying overhead. There's a corpse with a backpack carrying this key.
Key #15: West Farm – Go to the farm following the road west from Milton. Get the door key from the car, and look in the vase above the fireplace.
Key #20: South Gas Station – South of Milton, there's a gas station. Look for the truck parked by a pair of blue port-a-potties. The key is inside that truck.

Key No. 7 : We leave the bank and move along the street in the direction of the gas station, go into the fourth building on the right hand. In the house we get to a bed with a red and blue blanket and search the plastic container under it.

Key #20 : From Milton we go to the ORCA gas station. We go around it to the left and climb even further to the left, passing three trees and a couple of benches on the way to the toilets. There is a car near the toilets, we climb into it, the keys are on the floor under the passenger’s feet.

Key No. 13 : We leave Milton towards the farm, but do not cross the bridge, but turn left and move along the river until we see a clearing on the right hand. Before reaching it, we turn left and rise, focusing on the circling crows. The corpse will have the key.

Key No. 15 : Obtained according to the plot, when the old lady sends us to rob the bank. From Milton we go to the farm. There will be two sheds in the part of the farm closest to the city and two in the far one, we need the far ones, under one of them there is a car. The key is behind the wheel near the windshield. We use the farm key to open the house to the left of the sheds. In the house we go to the right. There will be a vase above the fireplace with a key in it.

Schematic marks on the map: O – bank, X – keys.

I'll add Tait_Grim. Key No. 15 was taken from the car to the prisoner who was stabbed with a knife. You will meet him in the farm house, on a quest where the Gray Mother will send you to clean out a safe deposit box in a bank. On the right in the box from the prisoner there is a key. The rest of the keys remained in the same places.
