How to unlock the Three Man Army achievement

    This one's quite easy. When you get the ability to cruise with all characters and have met them all, simply phone them all up, then when you're in a vehicle together, get a wanted level of 3 stars or more (to make sure you don't lose them easily), then spend over three minutes with the wanted level, but don't die or get busted.

    To do it, drive to Ammu-Nation and put on a suit of Super Heavy Armor. Weapons don't really matter, but it's nice to have them to help.

    Call Michael and Trevor on your phone under Contacts, then quickly pick each of them up, using the icons on your map to find them. Don't take too long to pick them up, or their icons disappear and they'll refuse to answer your calls for a while. Use your horn to attract their attention when nearby.

    Once you have your crew together, head to Los Santos Customs. Upgrade your Vehicle Armor and Engine. Drive to Los Santos airport and drive through the main hangar gate. Drive your car out on to the airfield. This will instantly trigger a three-star Wanted Level. Now simply circle the airfield for three minutes. If the police lose track of you, drive into their cone of vision to maintain the Wanted level.

    A walkthrough video kindly provided by NEO182 is below, from his randomchievos channel on YouTube.

    NOTE: There's a strange phenomenon happening just lately with the Achievement system on the Xbox One. Achievements aren't popping visibly or audibly, but they do. Your console has to be connected to Live, so if they don't pop, check your Internet connection, and the Xbox Live status page at http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-live-status

    They DO pop correctly, as I obtained them on the 360 version.

    DDM Driv3Just adding you do need to call both other characters before picking either one of them up. Otherwise if you pick one up then try to phone the other, they will come up as "busy" on your phone.

    JOHN SWFCIs this achievement unobtainable after finishing the story? I've done it 5 times now (after the story, I could never get all 3 to hang out together before that), but no unlock. I've got all 3 hanging out in the same car no problem, driven around the airport for at least 5 minutes to be on the safe side, then left and got rid of the wanted level, but no luck in popping the cheevo.

    Edit - it popped on the EIGHTH attempt! Doubt it makes much difference but I used the characters in a different order, I was Michael and called/picked up Franklin first and Trevor second. It then popped whilst I was still in the airport, I didn't have to leave or lose the police.

    The easiest way to obtain this:

    *** Spoiler - click to reveal ***


    After this, as Franklin, call up Trevor then immediately call Michael. On your map, you will then be able to pick both of them up - both icons on the map says "Friend Pick Up". Afterwards go to the airport (bottom left of the map) and remain in the airport for 3 minutes then leave the airport. You will then get the achievement.
