How to unlock the Flash ah aaaahhh! achievement in Homefront: The Revolution - Definitive Guide

Flashpoints are random events that show up while you are running around in the districts. They are identified by a notice over the comms and is indicated by a green icon on the map/minimap.

Would like to also point out that these carry over through multiple playthroughs.

Quick question: does anybody have any idea on why my tracker is stuck on 90%? I hard reset everything and I've completed more then 2 flashpoints. Any help would be appreciated.

Xbox live has been messy recently. Have you tried clicking on the achievement in the achievement tab, then clicking veiw in game hub? This method has worked for me the past few days

If your doing your first playthrough on easy I recommend going for every flashpoint that pops up and mop it up otherwise you will be waiting 15 mins each time another flash appears on other playthrough and you don’t really wanna do it on deathwish or start another easy playthrough coz flashpoints don’t show up till awhile in campaign.

They spawn every 15 minutes or so in a zone that doesn’t have 100% in hearts and minds. I found that they operate on a queue basis: meaning that if you leave the zone where you’re hunting them, if you return after 15 minutes you’ll immediately get a flashpoint. I used this fact to farm for other achievements, like the resistance trap one

This is by far the worst achievement in the game.

Flashpoints almost never show up or when they do at the exact second you finish a strikepoint/mission.
There's no way to force these to spawn except running in circles for hours on end.
I would recommend Old Town Red Zone ( the first one, not the Prison district). Got a flashpoint every 15minutes or so.

Dont capture strikepoints and they appear frequently. I'm replaying on Hard and mopping up a few (It's a Trap) and have done 3 or 4 during while in Holloway

I've left an entire area untouched and it didn't help at all, so no.

Y3ah, I'm seeing the sniper takedowns are frozen too. Sad, this game has a good story but bugs out the ass. :(

If you had no bugs, consider yourself extremely lucky.

Was talking about the story, not the bugs. And there weren't many for me.

To each his own, and I envy you for not getting many bugs.

You can get this in the first red zone already (so no need to camp in the other zones, because the enemies will get stronger and stronger in each area)

What i did was:

I would stay near a supply point in the pashall trainyard, so i wouldn't get detected by the kpa patrols and the airship aswell. So now comes the tough part, you will have to wait about 10-15 minutes each time.(watch a video/check facebook/do homework in the mean time i dont know, but dont forget to put the sound on for the notification!!!!!) I wouldn't recommend doing this on deathwish difficulty because you dont want to wait another 10-15 minutes because you died...

Also if the duster launcher flashpoint mission pops up, it will most likely glitch out and after a few seconds disappear (this has happened to me a couple of times, and there's nothing you can do about it) i just fast traveled back to the nearest safehouse and went back to my spot, and for the love of god.


DONT CAPTURE EVERY STRIKEPOINT! ESPECIALLY PASHALL TRAINYARDS IF YOU ARE FOLLOWING MY METHOD! I CAPTURED ABOUT 8 BUT STILL...

If you have any more questions feel free to pm me, or just send me a message on xbox itself. Peace!

Flashpoints are some kind of side missions that appears randomly only in Red zones. Make sure to get this trophy before completing the last red zone (Old town) because if you capture all the strike points, you will have less opportunities.

Sometimes you will need to destroy a duster launcher, sometimes killing 3 or 4 snipers attacking a safehouse, etc. Once you see a green marker on your minimap and the radio tells you what to do, run toward the flashpoint, because if you don't it will disappear.

They are marked on the map with a green indicator.
At their core, these are repeating events where you need to repel the attack of KPA fighters. Appear from time to time exclusively in red zones.

I will add to the above tip
"I stood there for about 20 minutes and nothing. Eventually I started running and riding a bike. Missions started appearing every 15 minutes."
hitherto great witchcraft

buried in any corner with a roof over your head (the airship does not sleep)
and placing the joystick so that the left stick forces you to go into the corner (you can check by looking at your feet)
you can calmly complete the test once every 15 minutes while distracted from the series or something else

I advise you to complete these missions as soon as possible, as I noticed that they appear once every 15 minutes. Started a new game to complete this trophy. I entered the red zone, completed the story mission and put the gamepad aside in the hope that it would work. I stood there for 20 minutes and nothing. Eventually I started running and riding a bike. Missions began to appear every 15 minutes. As soon as the map lights up green, drop everything, including your bike if you are on it. There was a time when I wanted to go around a building and take a shortcut and the mission was canceled because I drove out of its range. Do not go through the story if you start a new game. All you need is a submachine gun and bombs, which they will give you when you enter the first shelter in the red zone in the story.

The trophy is also cumulative if you start a new game at the same difficulty level as the first time - verified personally. During the main playthrough I got about 11 tasks, in the new game I did 9 and the trophy dropped.
