How to unlock the A Trusted Ally achievement in Just Cause 2 - Definitive Guide

Conquering new strongholds for the factions will increase the amount of missions available, as will causing general chaos as you destroy things.

However, I encountered a strange bug with my playthrough. By the time I came to work on this I had completed the main storyline and was in Mercenary Mode. I completed all the missions on the map and got stuck at 48/49 with no more missions showing as available despite removing all other map markers. Luckily, it fixed itself after I exited to the dashboard and reloaded the game.

LukeyBaby93: if the problem continues try doing challenges and completing locations to get the necessary chaos to bring about mission 6 or 7. Otherwise try doing what Dimrill did and exit out to the xbox360 dashboard and reload the game. Finally, if your really stuck then load a previos save, you might loose some work but should fix the problem if you go far enough back. Good luck!

There is one blue fraction marker just under the Agency mission The White Tiger (story mission 3 or 4 I think. I exited the game then reloaded hoping it will fix the problem, but no, so I removed all markers from the map and I saw one last blue fraction marker hiding behind the agency mission marker.

Positive vote for me. Reading this solution in advance helped to mitigate panic when I hit 48 faction missions and had no marker for the 49th.

Some additional info that might help. When I quit my game and then reloaded without exiting to my dashboard, I still did not have the 49th marker. On the second try I quit to my dashboard and then reloaded to an unglitched map with the 49th faction mission.

For me the missing one was a Jackal (red) faction mission called "I Want to be Free." I'm curious if this is different for everybody.

Didn't fix the glitch when I exited through the game menu, but when I dashboarded out it was there when I reloaded.

Whew! Stuck at 48/49 for a long time! Dash boarding out and reloading my save didn't work, but reloading the last autosave did the trick. My missing mission was Paparazzi Pursuit.

This is kind of a stupid question to ask, but should I save my game before dashboarding? Will it still fix it or no?

At first this wouldn't work for me, but then I figured out how to make it work. I was at 48/49, saved my game, dashboard, reload, but nothing. I tried many times but with no luck. So I went and completed a region, let the game auto-save, dashboard, reload, and then it showed up... My last was "Nothing to declare"; blue one at the international airport.

Is this achievement actually missable, or is it just buggy? I'm curious if the achievement flags are accurate.

@GodLike499 I also wondered this, but according to others it is missable: Just Cause 2 - Achievement Flag submissions

I've progressed a little further into the story, and noticed when this achievement becomes missable. For a spoiler free description, once you start the Agency mission that's near Pekan Buah Melambak (west side of the main island near the three factions' headquarters), you won't be able to complete some of the faction missions.

I had another problem. Bug with unlocking didn't appear but I get confused in other way. I only finished 2 agency missions (so next one visible on map was "The White Tiger") and then started doing everything else - collecting, challenges, factions mission till I get all other chieves but I wasn't able to find one last faction mission and it because marker was in *exactly* same spot as mentioned ealier TWT agency mission (coordinates: X-8191, Y-22953) - small tip for players who get confused in same place :-).

I noticed that too - seems to me there were quite a few icons hidden under that giant silver star icon for the agency mission - note to all (already mentioned) - the map icon filter really helps - hide all other icons and turn on only faction missions.

That is super helpful. No wonder I couldn't find that last faction mission.

As stated in the achievement there are 49 faction missions in total.

There are 9 different regions in Panau each of which has its own faction stronghold (3 are Ular Boys, 3 Reapers and 3 Roaches). Once you have secured a faction stronghold the faction missions in that region will be unlocked. Simply rinse and repeat for all regions. Some regions have more missions than others.

If you do happen to get stuck on any there are plenty of Youtube videos out there containing complete walkthroughs for every mission. As mentioned by Dimrill the missions can occasionally bug and fail to unlock but exiting to the dashboard and reloading should fix the problem.

The video below shows me finally unlocking this achievement.

All of the other solutions for this achievement are great, and I don't mean to replace them. None of them however mention how/where/why this achievement is missable.

The first thing to watch out for is that when playing the main story missions (marked as Agency Mission on the map), you'll be tasked with:


For the non-spoiler version, this is Mission 6, and its starting point is on the central western beach of the main island, north east of the central crescent island, aka Skull Island.

The second reason this can be missable is if you complete the settlement Pelantar Minyak Gerudi Besar before completing the mission:

As you should know by now there are 3 different factions in the game. As you progress through the game completing side stuff/objectives, main story missions & causing chaos you will unlock faction missions.

If you open your PDA you will be able to see all of the missions on your map. They are triangular in shape and each are coloured for which faction they represent. Most of the missions are small and very easy to complete so these won’t take you long at all.

Simply finish all 49 during the normal game mode or during mercenary mode & you will earn the trophy.

For every factions' stronghold takeover, certain areas of the map will be added to their territory. In this area you will be given a variety of faction missions. Complete all missions to obtain this achievement.

Conquering new areas by subsequent takeovers will add new missions to other areas of the map.The third bar on the map screen represents the amount of chaos needed to unlock more missions in the existing territories the factions have.

Note: Completed missions will disappear, which makes it very easy to track down the ones you haven't done yet.
