Planting a Bug

Need help with the Planting a Bug mission in Watch Dogs? Follow our guide to help Aiden and Bedbug infiltrate Rossi-Fremont and avoid Iraq.

Alright, so you've reached the mission called "Planting a Bug." It's the 14th mission in Act II, and it's all about getting some intel on Iraq. Aiden's got a plan, and you're going to help him execute it. First things first, Aiden needs to get in touch with Tyrone "Bedbug" Hayes. He'll call Bedbug and let him know it's time. Then, Aiden heads over to the Unicorn & Dragon Pub. Your job here is simple: leave an audio recorder for Bedbug. He'll pick it up, and that's the first step done. Next up, Aiden needs to get into the Rossi-Fremont building complex. Once inside, you'll be using the cameras to guide Bedbug. Keep an eye on your surroundings and make sure Bedbug heads towards the servers. Aiden will be doing most of the hacking through Bedbug's camera feed, so stay focused. When Bedbug gets to the server room, things get a little hairy. He'll hear some gang members and get spooked. He'll try to block the door with a server table – good thinking, Bedbug! Just as Aiden disconnects, Iraq shows up and grabs Bedbug. You'll see Iraq hang Bedbug out the window before the camera cuts out. Iraq will try to track Aiden, but you'll manage to escape. ### Mission Objectives: * Get into position and contact Bedbug: This is where you leave the recorder. * (Optional) Leave no witnesses alive: If you want to go loud, this is your chance, but it's not required. * Guide Bedbug to Iraq's locked server room: Use the cameras to direct him. * Unlock the server room for Bedbug: Aiden handles the hacking here. * Escape the Viceroys: Once the intel is secured, you need to get out. ### Trivia: Just a heads-up, some of the guards you'll encounter have fixed profiles, but their ages and income are randomized. For example, you might see: * Guard 1 (hallway): Manny Janes, whose wife is 32 weeks pregnant and works as a Warehouse Stacker. * Guard 2 (drug room): Earl Waller, who recently bought a sports car and is currently Unemployed. * Guard 3 (drug room): Dean Royce, who has an upcoming parole appointment and is also Unemployed. It's these little details that make the world feel alive, right? And that's pretty much it for "Planting a Bug." You've helped Aiden gather some crucial intel, and now you're one step closer to whatever he's planning next. Keep up the good work!
