CCS Not disbanding
« on: July 10, 2013, 03:44:40 am »

So I snuck into desert eagle and stabbed the lieutenant in the head, getting ownership of the safehouse and the message that the CCS was disbanded. However, they still own a safehouse which they captured from me a while back and appear in the news as doing raids. I sent a squad to to the safehouse and killed a ton of people but the safe house wasn't taken back. I'm using the non-beta version, is there any way to fix this?

Not in that version, unfortunately. However, you can still defeat the CCS, it's just that you won't get the original safehouse you lost to them back. There are two more CCS safehouses beyond the Desert Eagle, not including the one they took away from you; the other two are hidden and must be uncovered the same way you found the Desert Eagle. Once you capture their three original safehouses, they should be defeated, even if they still control the one they took from you.

If it makes you feel better think of the one they took from you a good way to get equipment on a daily basis.

If you really wanna get rid of em you could do what I did and break into the Intelligence HQ to get their backers list, then publish it.
Then the FBI will take care of your problem for you :P
Granted in my game I now have no safehouses and no way to get other ones, but still, no CCS :P

Indeed, I do this.

That only works if you're not having fun
AKA if you kill a bunch off innocents, the CIA will say that the CCS is necessary to stop you.

I've heard this a couple times, but I don't think it actually works that way. Maybe that was something that was discussed but never implemented? Or maybe I'm mistaken; it wouldn't be the first time. Have you/anyone actually published the backer list and had it not destroy the CCS?

I also have this problem, I've killed enough people too fill a god damn pool.
I've killed the lieutenant in the bunker, but it doesn't seem to disband.

Nah, but it says that on the wiki.

Having the same issue, killing them at the de bar and grill doesnt work killed probably 20 ccs and at least 50 "vigilantes" (police) that arrived. Not sure. :/

Killing the lieutenant worked but it forced me into an encounter that caused some heavy casualties. Bug?

The way you capture the bar and grill is by killing the lieutenant.

It used to be you could capture a CCS hideout by killing a huge number of people but it appears that in the current version of the game, the only way to capture a CCS hideout is to kill the boss of the site, the CCS Lieutenant. I'm not exactly sure which version of the game made that change. Anyway, you have to find all 3 CCS hideouts and defeat all 3 CCS Lieutenants to defeat the CCS, combat-style. Another technique to defeat the CCS is to obtain and publish the CCS Backers List in the Liberal Guardian newspaper. This top-secret document is quite hard to get, of course. So that's 2 ways you can defeat the CCS. As for how to find the CCS Backers List... well that information is classified, can't divulge it to civilians like you folks, you don't have the proper security clearance.

Even knowledge about the existence of the document itself is above your security clearance. Please proceed to the nearest termination booth.

That sounds awfully Conservative.

The CCS Backer List can be obtained from a high-level location that might have reason to know the backers, or from a high-level CCS operative with the ability to ferret the info out.  Either way, you'd best be fairly good at what you do to get it.
