How to unlock the Wars with Friends achievement in Halo Infinite - Definitive Guide

The earliest this can be done is before "The Tower" mission after you have captured your first FOB. You can gain "Valor" by doing various side tasks around Zeta halo which you will need to unlock the Razorback to spawn at any FOB (I believe the amount needed is only around 500 Valor).

After the razorback is unlocked travel to an FOB and marines should automatically accompany you by standing near them, simply call in the razorback, wait for the marines to get in (I only had 2) and drive to "The Tower" (or any other main mission if your further ahead)

The achievement should pop after passing the "Recovery" nav point with a razorback full of marines.

NOTE: It turns out you might just need to drive into the mission area as Maverick Hiro unlocked the achievement after completing the "The Tower" mission and driving into the area.

UPDATE: It seems the best way people have been unlocking this achievement is fast traveling to FOB Golf, getting some marines, then driving across the bridge where the "Recovery" nav point is located and it should pop there regardless of whether the main mission has been completed or not.

After trying everything that was written here and mentioned in videos, I finally got this in my post-game save (100%) by replaying "The Sequence", then pressing the first button (after killing the enemies nearby, "Unlock Door") to open up the bridge. Then I made my way to FOB Lima, spawned a Warthog and honked my horn to get two marines in. Then I drove to the Beacon that's directly north of The Command Spire. As soon as I got near the Beacon, the achievement popped.

Note: I did get out of the vehicle once or twice, so this doesn't seem to be an issue.
Note 2: A friend did it separately with a full squad in a Razorback with the same steps.
Note 3: It might be possible to do this by picking up the marines at FOB November which is closer to a beacon instead of Lima.

This one unlocked for me after the Tower mission was already done. I just drove by with a bunch of marines so i think as long as you get them to a main mission location it pops.

There was xbox live issues yesterday which meant achievement conditions weren't tracked and got circumvented, have you tried another save slot?

Can it be any marines? I notice it says rescued so I assume it means the guys who are tied up?

Can confirm with Maverick Hiro that you can get this achievement after completing all the campaign missions. I fast travelled to FOB Foxtrot, called in a Razorback, loaded up 5 marines from the base, and drove towards The Tower. When I got close, the achievement unlocked.

I tried doing this one on day of launch when the Xbox live server issues started. I can say that either this achievement has been added into my "backlog" of achievements that need to unlock when the achievement cloud server says so and will not pop until then, OR this achievement is bugged for me similar to the ghost splatter. Leaving an upvote either way. laugh

I wanted to add some info that caused me trouble. I tried to do this a few times with marines I picked up from the rescue objectives and it wasn't popping for something. I ended up playing until I had enough Valor to have 5 marines at my base loaded them up in a Razorback and drove into one of the beacons on the third island and it popped immediately.

Don't know if this will help but I completely thought this was bugged for me. Drove to The tower mission numerous times with a razorback half full and full of rescued marines and fob marines both when the mission wasn't and was completed. Came back the next day, fast traveled to fob golf, picked up 3 marines there and found another 3 along the way and the achieve popped shortly after passing the recovery marker. Literally did nothing different from yesterday so idk if it's just the matter resetting my game, waiting a day or the xbox service is not as buggy as it was.

This specific achievement seems to be pretty weird, took 3-4 goes to actually get it to pop (including going to The Tower after completing the mission, which didn’t work for me), and when I did get it to pop, I just so happen to immediately after get what is currently my only campaign crash. compute

Nope it doesn't work properly. I finished "Recovery" and went to the marker after crossing the bridge with a Razorback full of marines but nothing popped at all. I even drove to the opposite of the map where you need to unlock 4 spires but still nothing so I dunno what to do. Maybe a new save but rn the solution isn't perfect. I won't downvote though.

Used the method Immortal Sachi posted about it and it worked perfectly. I finished the campaign, saw this thread and got the achievement after crossing the bridge and hitting a save checkpoint.

Seems like if you don't unlock this right away, you can't get it until you beat the campaign. Haven't done that myself but just seeing a pattern with everyone "fixing" it.

So I just unlocked the achievement after attempting for at least an hour last night. Got fed up turned my game off went to bed woke up today and tried exactly what Deadmaus did. Spawned in, fast traveled to FoxGolf spawned in a razorback got in honked the horn, drove down the mountain picked up two more on the way near foxtrot, drove towards recovery and after crossing the bridge up towards tower the achievement popped with tower mission already being completed. Only thing I did different from last night was stopping to pick up two soldiers along the way

I think it's honestly really simple, but it became a tricky achievement due to the server thing. If you were on during that time just delete your profile from your xbox and redownload it. That was the only thing that could get it to unlock for me. I literally just picked up a marine on a mongoose and drove him to the tower during my LASO playthrough.

Can confirm, mongoose method works. Clear your first fob, spawn a mongoose, then go rescue boxer squad just up the hill. Those Marines will follow you back to fob golf, and one will get on the mongoose when u honk. Then, just drive to the tower, you don't even need to start the mission!

As others have stated, I too had to close the game and attempt it fresh. Went to FOB Golf, grabbed a Razorback and 3 Marines, then picked up 2 more on the way to Recovery. Just past the bridge achievement popped. I too did this after I had already completed Tower and Recovery missions. Thanks everyone!

It's been said multiple times but I shut the game down, deleted my profile off my console, reloaded my campaign save and went from FOB golf with marines in a warthog to "recovery" and it unlocked immediately

Looks like this works with a Mongoose. If you want a razorback full of marines, you can just immediately head for Cayman squad. There's 4 marines there plus a razorback, so you don't have to unlock any valor to get one at an FOB first that way.

This would not unlock for me until I quit the build and than resumed the campaign.

I went to FOB Golf. Spawned a Razorback, took two marines from FOB Golf and picked up two more half way to recovery. Achievement unlocked as I was on the bridge going into recovery.


This was after I completed the campaign and got all the collectables.

Mr Skotto’s method worked for me.
I completed the main campaign and picked up most of the collectables in game.
Cheevo popped Right after I crossed the bridge with a full razorback I picked up from FOB Golf.
Thanks for the solution!

Just want to report that following Immortal Saichi's comment above worked perfectly for me, but only when I picked up 2 from FOB Golf and 3 from the first parked warthog you come across. First try I accidentally picked up 3 from FOB Golf and it did not pop.

I got this easily. Go to the Tower with a Mongoose, there are Marines you can rescue right outside the tower. I got on the mongoose with one of those marines on the back, headed back to the Recovery waypoint and it popped

I literally just unlocked this doing exactly what Deadmas done. I got off shortly after I posted my comment and doing some collectibles, got on today, upgraded my shields to max, went and picked up 3 marines from FOB foxtrot, triggered one of them to run behind me and immediately drove out (to the left of calling in a razorback's pedestal, the razorback will point that way) across the mini bridge and to the right where there's a group of marines (it's consistently 2 that spawn there, very rarely 3) the guy running behind who I triggered caught up to us while waiting for dipshit marine #2 to get in, which he didn't because the running marine jumped in first thus filling the 5 available seats. went to the recovery point, it popped 353 metres from the tower beside the tree stump and half broke tree on your right with the rock on your left.

I done this on my completed save slot, got on to clean up some collectibles.

Deadmas is right. If anyone else is experiencing issues with this across multiple saves thinking it's bugged like me, this is exactly how I did it: fast travel to FOB Golf specifically, I did so after completing the main story, and loaded up 2 marines from the FOB. Drive down the road and you'll see a parked warthog with 3 marines standing around it. Pick them all up and drive to The Tower. Achievement popped after crossing the bridge and as I was passing the stump and broken tree on the right side of the road. His solution saved me a lot of headache.

On my first playthrough on legendary, it wouldn't pop. On my second playthrough on easy, I took particular notice of the description saying "rescued" marines (so not any marines, such as the ones stationed at an FOB).

Originally, I thought I had to have a razorback full of 5 rescued Squad marines (or I guess at least a warthog with 2?). I started at FOB Golf and rescued Boxer Squad and on foot made it to Recovery before finding a warthog. Unfortunately, I had already triggered the discovery right before loading marines into the warthog and then got into a firefight attacking the Tower (starting the mission), so I had to quit and reload the save to revert to the last checkpoint before anything was done to the Tower. I then fast travelled back to FOB Golf.

After looking up a YouTube video, I found that it can be done with a mongoose and a single marine.

So, I took a mongoose from FOB Golf and saved Carrera squad, loaded one of those marines on the back, and drove up to the Tower and the achievement popped when the location was "discovered" again.

If you have just beaten the game, you'll need to exit and reload campaign before trying to get this achievement again. At least that is what worked for me. I went from trying every combination of FOB, FOB vehicle, FOB marines, found marines, found vehicle, and placing/not placing a way-point and nothing worked. As soon as I restarted my game (like complete from the desktop), I found a random hog and some marines out on a stroll and picked them up, marked the location drove straight to it. BOOM it popped.

This can be done anytime after leaving Outpost Tremonius.
Simply go to any FOB you've captured, call in a vehicle, let marines jump in, then drive them to any main mission marker on the map.
It doesn't matter if it's a mission you've already completed on this save. So you can absolutely do that achievement after finishing all the main missions.

The easiest way would be grabbing marines at FOB Golf (the one you have to capture straight after leaving Outpost Tremonius) and driving them to Recovery (the marker just east of the Tower) works.

Just to add more information to the above guides.
This achievement was kind of glitched for me, I had to try maybe 20 times for it to pop.
What finally worked was to grab a marine that wasn't from a FOB or a saved squad.
So I had to find a random marine who was having a walk around the map.
Some are popping next to FOB Foxtrot on the road to Ransom Keep.
Sometimes, instead of marines there, there will be brutes and elites. If that's the case, just kill yourself, spawn back at FOB Foxtrot and check that place again. Eventually there will be a group of 2 or 3 marines.
Get one on a mongoose and drive to the Recovery point.
Also, I did that with a 100% completed savefile.

I replayed the distress call (I believe Cayman) near the recovery map point. After that, I grabbed the razorback and just rescued marines and drove them to recovery and it popped. Tried a lot of other things first

You must first rescue a squad of Marines and get them into a vehicle. Then head to a campaign mission location (e.g. THE TOWER) with the Marines to get the achievement. Please note: Marines stationed at forward bases do not unlock the achievement. Here is a video to help you.

Wanted to share that this achievement popped when I had a full compliment of marines in my Razorback, post endgame. The marines must have a random tag to say if they are rescued, so just take 5 with you across a completed mission threshold for the pop. It didn't work for me with a single marine in 3 vehicles or 2 in both attack warthogs, so the only thing I can think is that you need a full 5 man team, or just to have that one special marine with the "Rescued" tag on them.

Anyone still struggling with this, I think I found a surefire way to pop this achievement!
Replay Cayman Squad and rescue all the marines (should be 5), when the area is secure a Razorback will magically appear. Simply drive over the bridge past the Recovery Mission Marker towards the tower and it should unlock the achievement.

I tried all the methods above with no success. Rescued 5 marines from nearby and it was the first attempt!
