This is the second of the four ‘Take Back the Streets’ missions and as with the Downtown one, it begins from your fort at the Theatre Downtown where we can start it by investigating the spinning quest marker.

After starting the mission, if you look at your map you will see that there are three marked zones in the Old Factory district. As with the Downtown version of the mission, we need to make our way to each of these locations, find a Fizzco flag on one of the rooftops within the search area and then interact with it. After doing so, we will need to defend it against enemy attacks for around 30 seconds to complete the task. Remember that allowing the enemies to hit the flag will stop the timer and you will have to interact with it once more to start it up again.

Head up and hit the lever by the flag (left). Then defend it against enemies for 30 seconds (right).

The flag locations and enemy encounters are slightly different at each of the three zones and this is what you can expect:

• North Zone – This is located next to a water silo on top of building within the blue search area. It is initially guarded by a large group of stock standard OD. Once the flag has been activated, you’ll be defending it against a stream of Blade Bots who will hop up onto your platform from below as well as the occasional regular variety of OD.
• Central Zone – You can find this flag on the roof of one of the buildings in the search area. Destroy the Rifle Bots that are guarding it to start with before hitting the flag. As you defend it, you will be attacked from adjacent rooftops by Rifle Bots whilst Blade Bots will continuously hop up to the roof from below.
• South Zone – Located at the top of the tallest cylindrical building in the Water Treatment Plant. There is a group of Rifle Bots and an OD Mugger you will want to dispatch before raising the flag. You will then have to defend it against mainly Blade Bots (and some Rifle Bots) and the occasional Mugger.
  After raising the third flag, the mission will be complete.
