Can't liberate Police Station at Surpico

[SmallTownCityMan]

I've done all other objectives (except raise the flag) in this town, and have annihilated everything in the station, opened the door, etc... It still hasn't been "liberated" regardless of the number of friendlies now occupying it. All generators, all the walls, cars, satellites, gas cans, etc--are history. What could I be missing?

Hold it for 5-10 minutes.

I have the same problem and i was looking and found out you have to get Wreak Havok bar all the way up.

[TheNorthern_Light]

Just to confirm, I had this problem. I then spent 10-15 minutes, blowing up every lamp and light post INSIDE the police station, and eventually I got to 100% Wreak Havok, which is the only requirement to complete this mission (This is on a PC mind you)

If you manage to lure some of the reinforcements into the compound, I think those count towards the havoc meter too.

It's the same situation on PS4

In my experience, kills do not count towards havoc, only vehicles and explosive items (barrels, gas tanks, weapons stores etc.) With regards to vehicles, only military vehicles count, but they can be either DiRavello or Rebel vehicles. This gives you another option if you have a number of becons. You can rebel drop military vehicles inside the boundary of the police station and blow them up and they will count on the havoc meter.

I spent one hour filling wreck havoc and it glitched and didnt give it to me

Try grappling some police cars outside and pull it inside the police station and blow it up

works very well and fast for me as there are lots of them when i step out the base to attract them

[Oaks]

Go outside and helicopters will come. Lure them back in and destroy. Works like a charm.

A bit off topic here, but am I the only one who has spent dozens of hours just liberating cities? I know there are some unlockable items you get from completing missions which may make it easier for some cities. For instance, there is one city (I believe it's Regno) where I find disabling the monitoring system to be especially difficult. This leads me to believe there is an item you unlock (maybe a longer rope on the grappling hook) that would make this easier to complete.

[Warc1]

The powered Bavarium Wingsuit (BW) is the most effective unlocked item for disabling monitoring systems. This assumes you have the Sky Fortress DLC, and if you don't, get the season pass now. It will add a whole new dimension to the game.

But back to the monitoring systems. The BW allows you to fly at least twice as fast between monitors than grappling, parachuting or unpowered wingsuiting.. In Regno, my nominal completion time with the BW is around 1 minute and 20 seconds where I was closer to the 3 minute limit with the parachute and grapple.

Oh, yeah. The wingsuit. That is the last mission I attempted. I simply got tired of trying to destroy all the drones and gave up after multiple attempts. I couldn't get accustomed to the mechanics of the suit, so I kept crashing. Now, every time I open the game I hear about Sheldon's 'situation' involving 'big stuff'. I just ignore it and continue liberating cities as pronto as I can.

I just finished Serpico tonight it was fairly basic and yes those damn monitoring stations are a pita but I did them with a parachute.

Then I headed out to an oil platform, talk about brutal but it got liberated.

My way of doing it is to get a chopper and just start shooting things

Yep this is what I had to do at another town, I even started dragging tanks in and blowing them up and finally filled the meter, another town I found a random soldier stuck between a wall and a container that cleared the town when I killed him. Now I'm in Bellevia and nothing is working, it's driving me insane. I spent 60 mins just bombing inch by inch, every square foot of that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ town. I even exited the game and traveled back to the town and spent another 30 mins blowing everything up. ♥♥♥♥ this ♥♥♥♥.
