How to unlock the Iron Man - Overwatch achievement in Homefront - Definitive Guide
(minor spoilers)
- Use thermal vision all the time (Click RS?) The colours are dulled a little bit, but all enemies show up red, it makes life a lot easier.
- Pay attention to incoming missle warnings, and deploy counter measures as needed (A button), they are reusable, and the recharge time is fairly short.
- When trying to hijack the trucks, make sure all enemies are cleared out (I don't think it will let you hijack if they're not). I actually didn't find hitting the ground to be instant kill, I was practically driving on it for awhile =) Get close to each truck, starting with the one in back, and wait for the 'Hold X' prompt.
- Your helicopters health will regenerate, so don't worry about taking a few hits
- Once you're into the city, or whatever it is, targets pop up all over the place, including SAM turrets, humvees and other vehicles, and RPG teams. Keep the thermal on, and watch for the prompts. There are never too many at once, it's just a matter of finding them before they do any serious damage.
- Once you're on the bridge on your way out of town you need to be on guard for awhile. The enmies only come from one direction, so you can focus all your attention there. I tried to take them out from as far away as possible, just constantly launching rockets. Any that got through I would finish off with the machine gun. Just be careful, they'll fire at you too, not just the trucks.
