Mission walkthrough

  1. Head toward the wiretap

    Start following the indicated destination until interference disrupts the GPS. This disruption is the mission’s search mechanic, not a reason to reload or assume the map has broken.

  2. Narrow down the source

    Move through nearby streets and compare how strong the interference becomes. Increasing disruption means you are closer to a scrambler. Slow down when the game reports that a device is nearby and inspect the local area.

  3. Destroy the marked device

    Locate the scrambler and remove any immediate resistance before destroying it. Move clear of the blast and check whether the GPS signal returns. One destroyed unit does not necessarily finish the job.

  4. Find the remaining jammers

    If interference continues, repeat the search from your new position. Follow the signal clues until every device is destroyed and the objective completes. Do not leave after the first explosion while the map is still disrupted.

Key point

Use the interference to locate the equipment. Stronger disruption is useful information, and continued disruption means another device remains.
