Gaining Followers: As Sitara will tell you when you first speak to her at the Follower Wall (shown) in the Hackerspace, gaining Followers is DedSec’s ultimate goal. This is achieved in one way: by completing Main Operations, Side Operations, Co-op Operations, and activities. Keep checking your DedSec app and the Driver SF app for new missions that gain you Followers. Note that the Follower Wall also shows which Main Operations you’ve completed.
Follower Milestones: The fuchsia-colored bar that is gradually filling as you acquire more Followers begins at 0 and tops out at close to 10,000,000. Throughout your adventure, you’ll be filling this bar to the next milestone. Why do this? Because you have some additional Research Points you can spend for each milestone you reach, which are used to purchase abilities in the ./Research app. You need 4 million or more Followers to complete all Main Operations. The following table shows how many Research Points are awarded for each milestone of total Followers you reach:
