Achievement/Trophy: Out of the Frying Pan
4. The next scene will be a car chase where you persue Mapes, if you can complete it on your first try you'll unlock the Out of the Frying Pan Achievement/Trophy. It's important to note that it's impossible to ram Mapes off the road or blow his tires out during this chase, so don't try to, just focus on keeping up with him.
About halfway through the chase, some millitary vehicles will start ramming you. You can easily flip them with a few taps so don't worry too much about them. Complete the chase and you'll arrive back at Hughes Aircraft.
Hughes Aircraft Gunfight
Once you arrive at Hughes Aircraft after the chase,you'll be thrown into a huge gun battle with some MPs.
Achievement/Trophy: Bulletproof Windshield
1. As soon as the gunfight starts, you'll have a chance to get the hardest Achievement/Trophy in this DLC, Bulletproof Windshield.To unlock the Achievement/Trophy you'll need to shoot two seperate drivers of two seperate cars in the head before they get out of their vehicles. This Achievement/Trophy can be a real pain to get until you memorize where and when the MP's cars are coming from. Killing a few of the MPs will usually trigger one or more cars to spawn, so it's best to kill one or two guys then check your minimap to see if any red cars are approaching.
Above: This car will approach from the street behind you after you've killed a few of the MP guys. It's fairly easy to headshotthe driveras he approaches in a straight line.
Above: This car will approach from the left inside the compound after you've killed about half of the MPs.Onceyou see the red car on your mini map run towards it so you'll have enough time to line up your headshot.
If you're unable to kill two drivers before they get out oftheir cars, let the MPs kill you and you'll restart at the beginning of the gunfight. Make sure not to manually go back to the last checkpoint as it will start you off at the car chase with Mapes. Also, wear the Hawkshaw outfit if you have it as it will allow you soak up more hits, this is important as you'll need to run out of cover and take a few hits in order to line up your shots on the cars when they arrive.
Also make sure to check the dead enemies or the trunk of your vehicle for a better weapon if you have the time, as they can make getting the two headshots much easier.
2. Kill the remaining soldiers in front of the building,and then enter the Spruce Goosehangar. There will be more troops inside to kill, but as long as you take cover and slowly push forward you should be fine. Mapes is in the very back of the hangar in an elevated postion, take him out and you'll complete the case. For completing the caseyou'll also unlock the final Achievement/Trophy The Big Unfriendly. Congrats!
