The combat aspect of City Takeover is Gang Operations, which are outdoor locations within each hood where the gangs of the Syndicate tend to congregate and do their illicit deeds. As you travel through the hoods, these locations will appear on your map. Gang Operations can be completed at any time during missions, Activities, or other types of gameplay. When you enter the territory of this unlawful gathering, the enemies you must eliminate have red health indicators and the upper right-hand corner of the screen displays the completion percentage for that Gang Operation. All gang members hanging out there must be put down, but you don’t need to mess with any reinforcements. Some Gang Operations are out in the open, making it difficult to find cover, while others are in tricky spots behind fences or on rooftops.
Risk and Rewards
Wiping out these gatherings will earn you 100 respect and $1,000. Also, reclaiming the turf in the name of the Saints increases your percent of district control. Defeating the gang gatherings quickly raises your notoriety to dangerous levels, making your next task more challenging. For the most part, the backups that arrive are usually worse than the groups just chilling and waiting for their destruction. Make sure you can wipe your notoriety after tackling each Gang Operation.
Weapon of Choice
A wide variety of strategies are effective for eliminating these groups. These Gang Operations can be tackled at any point, but they become a lot easier later in the Campaign, when you have upgraded stats and weapons, not to mention very powerful vehicles and aircraft. The first rule is if you are on foot, don’t go it alone. Call some homies or recruit a few followers and take them with to cover your back. By definition, these are groups of enemies and the best way to wipe out a gathering of thugs is with explosive weapons. If you can get the jump on the Gang Operations, you can use only a few explosives to cut their numbers down and then simply mop up the rest. For an even easier approach, show up with a tank. However, its slow speed and lack of maneuverability can make it cumbersome to wipe out some Gang Operations. The fastest method to wipe these out is to rain down death from above with an attack chopper or VTOL.
