How to lower the “heat” level in Just Cause 2

just-cause-2

In Just Cause 2, the more you destroy things, the higher the military alert is. It's fine at the beginning, but passed level 3, it's starting to be really crazy, really fast (a dozen of soldiers shooting me after one minute, and 2-3 helicopters on the way).

Since my goal is mostly to have fun destroying things more than shooting, I'm wondering what is the best way to achieve that.

So my question is: how to keep the level of "heat" low while destroying things, and what is the best way to lower it when it's becoming too high to handle?

Best Answer

  1. Use a mod (for example Less Psychic Police or Less Vehicle Heat) to increase the threshold of police reaction
  2. Run/fly away. Police are only aware of you within a certain range, so if you call in either an extraction (can't with heat, forgot about that), or a black market chopper and fly up really high, the heat will fade. Then just bail out/reingress and continue the fun.
