How to unlock the I've Got the Power achievement in PAYDAY 2: CRIMEWAVE EDITION - Definitive Guide
Preplanning: Backup->Computer glitch routine (this to make the hacking go faster, if the alarm gets triggered) (not necessary but really helps if the alarm goes of,)
After you plant the c4, your next objective will be to hack the ship control terminal.
Outside of the building with the objective, there will be 2 fuse boxes. They appear at different locations, but always on the outside wall of the building.
I would recommend looking for these boxes before you start hacking the computer.
-If you're playing with friends, make sure all fuse boxes are manned and kill all enemies in those areas.
-If you're playing alone, you need to run fast. Between all of the locations. I only killed the enemies that came up close to the fuseboxes. and let the friendly AI take care of the rest.
(trip mines would also help here)
During the dockyard heist loud version you will come to a point in the mission where you need to hack the ship control terminal. You will need to locate and monitor the two power boxes outside of the building to ensure the law enforcement officers do not shut them down.
To help things, you can purchase the computer glitch routine from the pre-planning stage which makes the hacking process go faster. This is hugely beneficial as it saves precious time.
This heist requires you to go loud. By going loud you will be required to hack a computer. During the hack the Law Enforcers will try to the cut the power. You need to protect the 2-3 Power-boxes outside of the warehouse with the computer in. This can be done solo but I recommend having another player help you out as 3 or even 2 boxes can be difficult to cover if they are split on each side of the warehouse. If done correctly and without them ever cutting the power, the trophy will unlock the moment the computer has been hacked.
