Watch Dogs 2 eGuide Training Part 2: Hacking

Remote Control

Certain objects, such as scissor lifts, forklifts (pallet and car), and cranes have a remote-control function. While you’re targeting, take control of the object, and use it to maneuver around. If it has a lift capability (such as the scissor lift or forklift or the cage from a hanging crane), it can be controlled, with you or your RC Jumper sitting on the lift platform.

Not only that, but once you begin remotely controlling certain objects, you can attempt a variety of quick hacks or hacks using the Hacking Module, as if you were controlling a drone. This allows you to, for example, drive a scissor lift into a restricted area and start activating proximity traps or distracting foes. Think of moving objects as slow-moving drones. Think of cranes as allowing you movement to normally out-of-reach areas. Remember to stand on the platform before moving it!
