Mission 4 (The Future Is In Blume) | Main missions - Act III Watch Dogs Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Reach the Blume facility

Blume HQ

The starting point for this mission is to the East of Pawnee. After you start this mission, take the main road to Blume offices. You will receive new objectives here and you will learn that, later on into the mission, you will not be allowed to bring about the detection of your character (otherwise, it will end in a failure).

Infiltrate Blume HQ

The first gate

There are two different ways in which you can access Blume HQ. The first variant is the locked gate in the South-Eastern corner of the red zone.

1 - Mission 4 (The Future Is In Blume) | Main missions - Act III - Main missions - Act III - Watch Dogs Game Guide
In order to unlock the North-Eastern gate, you need to start hacking into the successive surveillance cameras in the facility - Mission 4 (The Future Is In Blume) | Main missions - Act III - Main missions - Act III - Watch Dogs Game Guide

In order to unlock the North-Eastern gate, you need to start hacking into the successive surveillance cameras in the facility. Follow the white connection that starts at the gate, thanks to which you will determine the area of interest. Activate the forklift marked in screenshot 1, and then switch to the camera in the nearby caretaker's lodge. Pan the camera and stop it in the position shown in screenshot 2, thanks to which you will be able to hack into the switch.

Personally, I recommend against using the North-Eastern entrance, because you would have to go a longer way to reach the current destination. In spite of that, it is a good idea to open this gate, because you may find it useful, towards the end of the mission.

The second variant s the locked gate in the South-Western corner of the red zone.

Also in this case, you need to open the gate, thanks to hacking into the nearby cameras - Mission 4 (The Future Is In Blume) | Main missions - Act III - Main missions - Act III - Watch Dogs Game Guide

Also in this case, you need to open the gate, thanks to hacking into the nearby cameras. Around the gate, sooner or later, there will appear a guard with a camera on him and you need to switch to him. Wait for the switch shown in the above screenshot to come into the view of that guard and hack it quickly.

Note - Before you enter the base, I recommend that you use the nearby cameras to examine the entire facility. Mark all of the enemies that you spot and obtain, at the same time, a new audiolog (Malcolm Deodato 06).

The first guard

I recommend that you enter the Blume facility by taking the South-Western gate, described above. Your current task is to access the control panel in the central part of the threat area (unfortunately, you cannot hack it remotely). Your path will be crossed by several guards and it would be good if you eliminated, at least two of them. The first one is the abovementioned guard with camera on him. It is best to take him down in melee, although you can also shoot him with a suppressed weapon.

The next one is the guard close to the control panel and looking towards it. If you want to, you can try dragging him away, into a secluded place, with e.g. the Lure. Just as well, you can attack him from behind, where he is standing. In the latter case, watch out for another guard, who is patrolling the area. Time the action well to prevent being spotted.

As for the third guard, mentioned above, you can easily leave him alone, or attack him at the moment at which he appears close to the cover, behind which you are. regardless of what you did in this case, you need to approach the control panel and interact with it, in order to gain access to the local network.

Scan the router

The router is inside the building

The router that you are looking for is in the building to the North-East of the control panel and unfortunately, it is hidden in a location in which you cannot hack it via a camera. Approach the router and hack into the shutters on the nearby windows, thanks to which you will be able to walk into the building easily. After you get there, hide behind a cover, for safety.

Note - around, there is a new audiolog (Damien Brenks 09), which is worth obtaining.

Locate and activate the remaining ctOS boxes

Remain behind the cover and start hacking into the nearby cameras again - Mission 4 (The Future Is In Blume) | Main missions - Act III - Main missions - Act III - Watch Dogs Game Guide

Remain behind the cover and start hacking into the nearby cameras again. If you follow the white trace of connections, you will get to both ctOS boxes and the first one is in the North-Western corner of the facility. Turn your attention to the big platform above, shown in the above screenshot, which is by default, being guarded by two men.

Hack into the smartphone to attract the attention of the guards

The very good news is that you can hack into the box without the necessity to walk up to it. Switch to the camera overlooking the small room and look through the glazed roof. Target the smartphone here and activate it.

Te box is on the left

Wait for one of the guards to enter the room with the smartphone. Quickly, switch to the camera attached to his armor and hack the first ctOS box remotely.

Note - If you want to climb onto the platform, with the box, personally, use e.g. the nearby solar panels to distract the enemies and either neutralize them, or walk around quickly.

The second ctOS box is in the enclosed area shown in the above screenshot, which is located in the North-Eastern corner of the facility - Mission 4 (The Future Is In Blume) | Main missions - Act III - Main missions - Act III - Watch Dogs Game Guide

The second ctOS box is in the enclosed area shown in the above screenshot, which is located in the North-Eastern corner of the facility. Around, there should, permanently, be two opponents, where there appears one more person, occasionally.

The trick with smartphone will not be that effective here, because the device on the ground would, in the first place, be approached by the guard without camera. If you want to rely on hacking, you first need to distract this one, e.g. by hacking into the nearby interactive platforms. Only then, hack into the smartphone, wait for the guard with camera to approach it and hack into the ctOS box only then.

If you do not want to lose your time on distracting the guards, you can attack the opponent with camera from behind (he is patrolling the Northern part of the facility), use hacking, or the Lure to distract the remaining two enemies, after which you walk into the enclosed area personally.

Hack into the local network

Hack into the router

You need to return to the router that you have scanned with the Profiler, several minutes earlier. Now, you can hack into the router and you do that, of course, by holding down the hacking key/button. Complete the hacking minigames (as you do that, remember that you first need to unlock the smaller interactive points, marked with padlocks, in the first place).

Upload spyware

The main server

wait for the camera view, on the server room, to load, locate the central computer and hold down the hacking key/button to upload spyware. Listen to the phone conversation, after which you will receive new objectives.

Locate the place of meeting with Damien

Hack into one of the cameras in the conference room - Mission 4 (The Future Is In Blume) | Main missions - Act III - Main missions - Act III - Watch Dogs Game Guide
Hack into one of the cameras in the conference room

Wait for the guard with camera to appear in the server room and, quickly, hold down the hacking key/button to start viewing the area from his perspective. Wait for the guard to reach the room, where the meeting will soon be held, and switch to one of the two stationary cameras. Watch the meeting participated by Charlotte Gardner and Damien Brenks.

Get out of the Blume facility

You can hide behind the low walls and attack the enemies by surprise - Mission 4 (The Future Is In Blume) | Main missions - Act III - Main missions - Act III - Watch Dogs Game Guide

After you regain control over Aiden, most probably the alarm will go off in the facility. If you have not yet managed to get away from the router, hide behind, e.g. one of the low walls outside of the building and start eliminating, or distracting, the enemy soldiers, one by one.

It is a good idea to take the passage that is not being guarded - Mission 4 (The Future Is In Blume) | Main missions - Act III - Main missions - Act III - Watch Dogs Game Guide
It is a good idea to take the passage that is not being guarded

In my case, the guards got busy checking out the central and the Western part of the facility, which allowed me to escape easily, along the Eastern part. Apart from that, I used the North-Eastern gate, that I unlocked at the very beginning of the mission. Regardless of the course of events, if needed, you can get involved into more fierce exchanges of fire, because you do not need to sneak anymore. After you leave the facility, reach the marker next to the parked bikes, to complete this mission.

Note - quite unusually, the game will start the next stage of the campaign mode (which is connected with saving T-Bone) so, go towards the green marker now.

Reward for completing the mission: 2000 experience points
