How to Manage Wanted Levels and Survive MaxTac

Managing the Law Enforcement Response

Neutralizing targets, attacking threats, and committing crimes actively raises your wanted level. As your rating increases, responsive NCPD officers will begin pursuing you across the world. Basic police squads will attempt to intercept you on foot, requiring you to either flee the area or engage them with high-tech firearms.

Surviving High-Level MaxTac Deployments

If your wanted rating continues to climb unchecked, law enforcement escalates to elite MaxTac tactical units:

• Watch the Skies: Elite MaxTac squads arrive directly in flying AV transport vehicles to cut off your escape routes.
• Disrupt the Squad: Use quickhacks to target and disrupt incoming officers before they fully disembark and surround you.
• Utilize Time Dilation: Trigger your Sandevistan implant to evade heavy incoming fire from MaxTac operatives.
• Break Line of Sight: Use mobility perks and cover to disengage from the AV deployment zone and allow your wanted level to subside.
