Mission 1: Lighthouse

Objective: Recover/Destroy info Morgenholt may have been forced to give up
Objective: If possible, rescue Morgenholt
Objective: If you have a shot, take out Lacerda


You don’t have a location on Morgenholt, it’s up to you to find him.  Intelligence shows that there are some caves under the fort that may be used for infiltration.  You’ll take a zodiac into the area and extraction will be via the top of the lighthouse by helicopter.

New to the game is a “load up” option where you can pick your arsenal.  You can go with Redding’s recommendation, a stealth outfit, or an assault option.  Since the goal here is stealth (for the guide!), then we will go with stealth.

You start out on the beach next to the zodiac.  You’ll see a beached boat and a light.  Head towards the light and find the path up the rock ledges to the left of the lamppost.  You will reach a dead end of sorts with a clear indication that you are to climb up the rocks.  The top ledge will lead you into the caves.

Follow the path the only way it goes.  You’ll reach a dead end again and you’ll have the option to interact/enter the crawl space. 

You will hear some gun fire ahead and Lambert will chime in as usual.  He must have super hearing.  If you keep heading forward, you will get the option to “exit.”  Look up and you will notice the ledges.  That means only one thing, jump and pull yourself up.

At the top, you can pick up an object.  Look around and you can see a dangerous looking Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom type bridge.  A short bit later, you will hear the chatter of two guards. 

If you wait just below the top, one will walk very slowly like he’s on the catwalk across the bridge and towards your position.  The far one will eventually tire of the antics and walk away.  The other will stay.  Patience is the key as always.

Wait for the remaining guard to go enjoy the view.  Your goal is to cross the bridge without being seen.  Just go slowly and you will have no problem.  Head to the right once you cross and follow the path through the caves.

You will stumble across a storeroom of sorts with one patrolling guard in the room.  Head into the room when safe and wait behind the barrels and recon the guard’s pattern.  He’ll pace up and down.  Wait for him to come to you and follow him back up.  Note that there is a “safe” spot on the left in the shadows for you to wait.

To the right of where the guard first pauses on his patrol away from you, there is a staircase that leads up.  It’s also in darkness, so you can wait here while Lambert talks to you.  He will tell you that you have to scan the boxes with your EEV.   Note that scanning does not require you to equip anything; you have the option to “scan” as an interaction dialogue.       

[Alternative note: you can use your binoculars to scan the crate from a distance, stay at the first barrels and lean out and use the binoculars to scan the cargo]

The first crate is to the right of the stairs that lead up.  When safe, scan and find a spot to hide.  Lambert will ask you to find the other four crates.  It’s best to just go back to the staircase (up) and wait for the guard to return and leave again.

Head down the opposite stair case.  You will find the shooting bandit here and the second crate to the left side.  If you still have the object you picked up, you can destroy the light in the stairwell.  This will create a distraction for you down below.

Quickly (but in a crouch) head into the downstairs room and stay to the left.  Wait for the guard down here to investigate.  The room on the left has a crate for you to scan.  Scan and wait.  The guard may go on patrol in a T pattern, crossing the room from his original shooting area into the crate room and to the stairwell.  Time your movements as usual to avoid him. 

[Alternative note: you can still smash the light and head towards the doorway to the next area, take out your binoculars and creep slightly into the room and aim for the crate.  You will scan from a distance and play it safer than entering the room]

Head back up the stairs, mindful of the guard patrolling above.  When safe, move across and up the next set of stairs.  At the top of the flight, you will some mumbling behind a door.  Using the optic cable, you won’t be able to see anything, but it appears the goons are torturing someone.

Open the door, but make sure you CLOSE it as well (the AI is more observant).  Down below you can make out the shadows of a goon torturing someone.  He is accompanied by another goon who will go on patrol up the stairs.  So, while they are chatting, head down the stairs/ramp and stay to the right in the shadows.  Don’t pause on the ramp…pick up the bottle and head to the inlet on the opposite side and wait.  Save here.

This leaves you with one guard in the jail cell area.  The goal is to get into the room, go straight and to the right when you reach the wall.  You can do this without killing the light, you just crouch walk and follow the guard and head to the right.  Make sure you hit the darkness as quickly as you can.


Lambert will chime in and tell you to erase any trace of the data Morgenholt may have given up.  Grim will mention a wireless link and a server.  Kola Cell all over again?  We’ll see.  Follow the path the only way it leads and you will reach a locked door.

Pick the lock and use the optic cable to recon the area.  You will see a guard and a spotlight outside.  Now would be a good time to save.

Head out and go to the left where you can just before you reach the tent.  Flip on your thermal vision and you will see two guards.  They will switch spots, one will stay in the tent and the other will take over patrol.  Make an L pattern and head towards the well and wait behind it near the wheel.  Recon the area and watch the patrol pattern.

There are two tents in the area, the one with the stationary guard and another unmanned one.  You can sneak around and into the unmanned tent and find another crate to scan (3 down, 2 to go). 

[Alternative note: you can cut the tent at one end, creep slightly in and use your binoculars to scan the crate]

As always, be mindful of the pattern of the guard.  In the opposite corner from where you started is a doorway, that’s your goal.  When the guard is near the spotlight, you are free to move there.  This will lead you to another open area.  Make sure you stay in the shadows as the guards are very observant.

Wait in the doorway and you will overhear a conversation and confirm that Lacerda has left the building.  Oh well.  If you flip on your thermal vision, you may be able to make out the lone guard in the area.  Don’t worry, he’ll begin patrolling soon.  Go out and to the left, staying in the corner.  Watch the pattern of the guard.  Crate #4 is on the left side near the light.

[Alternative note: you can creep past the entry to the left and take out your binoculars and scan the crate]

Wait for the guard to pass you and slowly approach the crate and scan, drop back and wait for the guard to resume his patrol.  When he passes, head around the wall in the middle, keeping against it.  One guard is standing ahead of you, guarding the stairs up.  There are crates behind him, you can get behind these.  If you are observant, look at the tower, there is an opening with two crates below it.  Silently climb up and grab the ledge.

Take a left at the intersection at the top of the landing.  The next room contains two guards, one is sleeping and the other is watching the fire.  How sweet.  Slowly sneak by him, you will then reach a curtain.  Below you are the two guards you left.  You have to cross the platform to the other side without being seen. 

[Alternative note: you can avoid the long route by scanning the crate and then approaching the tin roof that covers the crate and climbing up while the two guards are talking.  Then equip your pistol and pull the left trigger while pointing at the light on the platform.  Hop over when safe]

Take out your pistol and shoot the light below you; this will distract the two guards below.  Put your back to the ledge on the right and move forward with your pistol drawn.  You have to take out the light ahead or you will be spotted. 

Once you enter through the doorway, stay to the right.  The server is the laptop near the light, you will have to hack into it and take care of the guard near it.  If you do this right, he will be beat boxing while you sneak up on him.  Stay still at the entrance past the tarp as 2 guards are outside talking.  While they are talking, slowly head out and to the left and down the stairs. 

[Alternative without the KO: the guard in here should have his back to the server when you enter the room.  All you have to do is use the computer and exit, that’s enough to complete the objective.  Simply sneak out of the room now and ignore him]

Before heading down again, turn around and take out your binoculars, underneath the 2 guards is a brightly lit area that contains crate #5.  Use the binoculars to scan from a distance.

Head down the next set of stairs slowly past the guard stuck with repairing a gate.  Keep going down and follow the path.  You will be able to see the lighthouse soon and a patrolling guard.  He will pause on the bridge and turn around.  Follow him and head to the right once you cross the bridge and go around the lighthouse.  The guard will go left, wait for him to leave.

Open the door and head up the stairs, remembering to close the door behind.  You will overhear something about a cargo ship. 

Lambert will tell you to head to extraction up top and tells you to make sure the light is out.  Keep heading up until you find the ladder to the light.  Up top is a patrolling guard and the light.  Climb up when safe and hop to the other side that has the light switch.  Hit the switch and head outside.  Find the broken ledge and hang there, you will get to do the best move so far…grab the guard and throw him off the lighthouse.  Call for extraction, you’re done. 

Note: killing the guard by tossing him off the lighthouse will result in 98% success rating.  The alternative is to KO him.

[1 KO, No bullets used, 1 rock used to destroy a light, OCP used on another, 100% success rating]




Mission 2: Maria Narcissa

Objective: Board, search, and find out who Lacerda has been dealing with and make sure he doesn’t have an opportunity to spread what he knows
Objective: Find out who Lacerda's contact is (via overhearing conversation in Captain's Room)
Objective: Extraction will be via s small launch on the stern; alternative is to jump overboard and be rescued at sea
Opportunity Objective: Find 6 weapons crates and place trackers on them [first cargo hold on the floor, after the engine room (past a hallway and bunks in a closet), under stairs on deck #2 outside (after Grim tells you to find the Captain), room in galley near the freezer, near captain’s cabin in dark hall, near extraction on deck with 3 guards (center of the deck in the dark)


You start out on the deck with company, 2 guards.  Lambert will let you know about some new alarm system and Fisher will jokingly reply, “Don’t tell me, 3 alarms and the mission is over?”

One of the guards will patrol around the ship, head down the left staircase when safe.  Continue straight until you reach a door.  To the right is a gap that you can pull yourself up and into.  Go straight and head left at the intersection.

You will reach a more open area with a light, head to the right and into another gap.  Drop down below, mindful of the patrolling guard on this deck.  He’ll walk away from you, follow until you see the railing of a staircase.  Climb and silently drop down.

There is one guard asleep here.  Use the OCP on the light above the stairs.  Then move next to the stairs in the darkness.  Use the OCP on the light near the guard.  He will wake up and light a flare.  Stay where you are and then use the OCP on the light above the stairs again.  This will cause the guard to go upstairs, he will drop the flare near the door you need to go through.  So, wait for the flare to go out and use the OCP on the light near the door again and open the door and drop into the cargo hold.  Redding will chime in and give you a new objective: plant tracking devices on the crates to see where the cargo goes.  Once you drop down, find the path towards the light.

Once you get to that side, there is a narrow path to the left (if facing the light), put your back to the wall to get to the precious cargo.  The first crate to track is on the ground once you exit the passage.  Redding will tell you to keep your eye out for more.  The tracking placement is an interaction, rather than equipment you must equip. 

As you explore and head towards the ladder out of the hold, Redding will let you know that you will have to access the bilge to get to the other compartments due to flooding. 

Climb up and head to the door, use the optic cable for recon.  Open the door, go through and remember to close the door behind you.  Head straight, when you reach the next compartment, Redding will remind you to use the bilge pump to get rid of the excess water in the cargo hold.  Continue down the hall, open the door on your right. 

One guard is in here, working on some machinery.  Slowly creep up and use the OCP on the light above him.  He will notice, but continue his work. Hop up onto the bench to the left of him to bypass him.  Drop silently down and then interact to enter the crawl space.

Just keep going until you get the option to exit the front of the crawlspace.  Below you are two guards.  One is working, presumably, on the pump.  The other is above him on patrol.  Head to the right once you drop down and jump up to grab the pipe that runs above the platform above the patrolling guard and keep going until you see the break in the railing for the ladder.

Drop down when safe to the platform and slide down the ladder.  Hide in the corner of the room so you can get a view of the swinging light.  Use your pistol and take out the light, I don’t think the OCP will give you enough time to get to the pumps.  Watch for the guy below who will wander around now that you have shot the light.

Work your way to where he was standing and you will be able to activate the pumps.  The exit is back around the machinery where you were hiding.  Slide open the door when safe and slide it closed after you enter. 

Follow the path around, the first door on the right is Lacerda’s cargo hold.  The bill of lading is way on top of some boxes in this cargo hold.  You may want to shoot out the light outside the door for safety reasons.  Once you have read the bill of lading, head back out and take a right out the door.
 
Just a bit down the corridor on the right is a hatch you can drop down, good thing as a guard is now approaching your position.  Once down, head away from the guard and keep going, you will have to crawl under some pipes.  On the opposite side is another open hatch you can use to pull yourself up.  Head down the stairs to the flashing light.

You will receive a warning from Grim about fumes and the danger from gunshots.  So, be discrete…which is what we are doing anyway.  There are two guards up above you and one mechanic patrolling the engine room.  Make sure you close the door behind you. 


Head into the room and go straight and duck into a little cove between machinery on the left, wait for the mechanic to pass.  Continue around the room, by this time you should distract the two guards above you.  They will come down and investigate.  Use this as your opportunity to backtrack around the room.  Keep going until you find the stairs up. 

Use the OCP on the light once you get upstairs to create some darkness.  Continue around the catwalk to the next set of stairs.  Head straight towards the wall with the light and use the OCP on the light up here (or go around the edge of the room on the platform, avoiding the light).  You should be able to see your goal by now, an open doorway.  Make your way there while the light is out.

Ahead is a closed door, slide it open and enter the next area, remembering to close the door behind you.  Next to the stairs, but hard to see is a hallway head towards it and take the first door on the left.  Close the door behind you and switch off the lights.  Turn on your thermal vision.  One guard is about to come out on patrol. Stay by the door and wait for him to walk away (he will pause near the stairs, but you can see him walk further away).  Open the door and head left, open the next door and close it behind you.  Head through the next bulkhead and there is a door in front of you.  Behind that door is crate #2.

By the time you get back towards the stairs, the guard should be standing in the corner in darkness.  Pick up the bottle in the bunks, and throw it away from the guard and down the hall near the stairs.  This will move him out of the corner for a bit.  When he moves, head to the corner (upper right) in darkness.  Put your back to the wall and work your way towards the stairs.  Take out the pistol and use the OCP on the light above the stairs, this distracts the guard again.  Head up the stairs now.  Grim will let you know that you are close to the transit ledger.

Head towards the light and enter the door on the left.  There is a crawl space in the left corner, enter it.  Exit the other side and you are now in the room with the guard and technician.  Use the OCP on the light above the technician when the guard leaves.  The cabinet with the ledger is behind the technician, he won’t notice you going through the files while the light is out.

Head back towards where you came, but this time go through the door.  Keep going straight and open the door to the deck (it’s straight down the hall).  Grim will tell you to get to the bridge and find the captain.

Just outside and below the stairs is another box you can place a tracker on (#3).  Once done, head up the stairs and open the first door you get to.  Head in and down the hall.  Take out the light near the door with OCP and enter the room, making sure to close the door.

The 4th crate is in the room adjacent to you (behind the 2 guards talking when you enter).  Wait for one of them to enter the kitchen area and then leave the area.  Wait a bit and then whistle.  Move towards the hall and use the OCP on the light on the left and then head towards the light.  Switch off the lights and then enter the kitchen area and place the tracker.  You won’t have enough time to back out as the guard who left will come back to investigate.  Hide in the freezer and go all the way back.  You will have to wait out the investigation. 

When it dies down, head into the galley and slowly towards the doorway.  Angle the camera to see where the stationary guard is looking.  Then use the light switch and head out and down the hall to the right.

 
Head out and to the right down the hall until you get a little cove on the left.  Slide open the door and head up the stairs.  Don’t go in the first doorway, but head into the darkness and you will find another crate (#5) to place a tracking device on. 

If you head into the hallway parallel to the crate hall, take the left at the intersection.  Ignore any doors and head up the stairs and wait.  You’ve found the bridge.  There is one officer with the Captain.  Wait for them to break up, the Captain will walk and stop and look out the windows, sneak up and grab him.  Take him someplace dark in the corner away from the other guy and “talk” to him.

You will find out that Lacerda is in the Captain’s quarters on the 3rd deck and he brought some protection, European body guards.  For fun, take the Captain back downstairs and then KO him.  The door sole door on the left is the bathroom, place him in one of the showers and go find his quarters.  Lambert says the interior stairwells are the only access.

From where you dropped the captain, head back to the crate.  There is a door you can slide open.  Remember to close it.  You’ve just found the captain’s quarters behind another door.  You should hear some mumbled voices.  Put your optic cable under the door for some recon.  The guy standing is your target, the two sitting are your everyday garden variety goons.  Stay calm, Lacerda is about to get a drink alone.

Turn around and wait near the door, he’ll kneel down for a drink at the fridge, sneak up and grab him.  Take him to the bathroom and interrogate him for some fun.  Kill him and leave him in the shower.  You should have completed the Primary objectives now and the secondary objectives.  .

Head back up to the bridge and exit the door on the left behind the stairs, go to the right.  Wait between some equipment as there is one guard who is above you and will come down the stairs on patrol.  When he goes away, head up the staircase he came down.

Keep going straight and head behind the structure, find the ladder down and slide down.  There are 3 guards below you on deck.  Down below is a crate (#6) you can place a tracker on.  Slide down the ladder and wait for the party to break up.  The crate is in the middle of the deck and in complete darkness.  All you have to do is slowly creep up and place the tracker.  Head back up the ladder and go straight and up another ladder.  You will reach extraction near the boat.

Mission 3: Mcas Banco de Panama

Objective: Crack the bank’s vault and lift some bearer bonds to cover your tracks
Objective: Get the hard drives in the main vault
Objective: Find a safety box in the little vault for tools
Opportunity Objective: Plant fake emails in 8 computers [computer in security room on first floor (2 guards), computer on desk in first laser room upstairs; guard’s computer in glass room; President’s computer; Treasurer’s computer; computer in main vault; first computer on left in room with 3 guards (near safe deposit boxes); and lobby entrance]
Note: There are many ways through the building, which become evident when you explore, this is but one way to go through the mission


You start outside the bank in a courtyard, 2 guards are outside with you.  Recon the area while listening to the goons.  They mention motion sensing lights, so stay away from the edges of the area near the walls.  They will go on patrol and some more talking will reveal another stationary guard on the right side behind a tree.  There appears to be a zip line, but unfortunately it looks like it is used for extraction as you can’t get to the line.

Anyway, there are a few fun things to do in the area.  On the right side is a valve on the wall, this will turn on the sprinklers and get the 3rd guard all wet.  On the left side of the bank is a power switch which will shut off all the lights.  Since this is a bank robbery, it’s probably not a good idea to go through the front door, even though you can pick the lock and open the door.

Instead, make your way to the right of the bank and you will enter another area.  There is a camera on the left wall going over the area and a few lights.  The far side has a ladder, that looks like a good idea.  You can avoid the camera by passing under it and sticking to the wall. 

Grim will mention a work order and something about magnetically sealed dome windows above the lobby.  It’s up to find a breaker to get rid of the magnets.

Make an L pattern towards the light that shines on the two domes.  Head around the wall and you will see a shack with a light above the door.  Pick the lock and enter.  You’ve found the breaker for the magnetic seals.  But, you’ve also triggered a laser array on the floor.

Head back to the roof and find the open window, it’s the middle one.  Don’t drop down, but interact and grab the rope.  Lambert will chime in with your guest guide.  You will have to get access from three places: the president’s office, the treasurer’s office, and the security office.

You will have to use EEV (the binoculars, click the right thumbstick down) to get out of the laser grid.  Look at one of the computers and push ‘a’, you will then have the option to disable the laser grid.

But first, turn around and head to the reception area.  There is one guard at the computer desk.  Head to the right of the wall and angle yourself so that you can scan his computer (it’s on the floor to his left).  Hack and upload the email.

Go back and use the door on the left from where you dropped in.  Use the OCP on the light when the guard crosses the room.  Enter and go through the door diagonal from you.  Close the door behind you and you will be able to see into the security booth.  The computer you need to access is on the far left and above the last screen.  Simply use the EEV and access (hack) the computer.

Let’s head upstairs first.  When you reach the top of the flight, Grim will chime in and tell you about more lasers and a guard who you could follow and stay in his “electronic” shadow.  At the top of the stairs (on the left) you can use the EEV to hack the computer on the desk (don’t aim for the monitor) and upload the fake email.

Head through the door and go left into the darkness.  The key here is to stay on the wall in the shadows.  Wait for him to return and follow him back out into the hallway.  Wait in the hallway in the corner, let him pass and continue.  Turn and use the OCP on the light at the desk with the computer.  This will distract the guard and give you enough time ahead.

Continue down the hall and use the OCP on the first two lasers (stay on the left side near the benches).  Then use the OCP on the light.  Wait and use the OCP on the third laser and hop up on the last bench.  The patrolling guard here will be coming to investigate the light.  Use the OCP on the light again and when he passes go past the forth laser and turn the corner and put your back to the wall.  Wait for the guard to head back and then follow him but stay on the right side and head towards the kitchen area.

Now just wait for him to head across and wait in the kitchen area for the guard to go back the other way.  Head to his former position and go down the hall.  Head right and you will see a glass contained room, that’s where you need to go. 

You have the access code for the door, so use it.  Open the door, but don’t go all the way in the room.  The security access panel is on the left side, near the door.  You can simply use it without being noticed, while you are in there you might as well hack the lone computer on the left to deactivate the cameras and delete the archives.  Don’t worry, they won’t even notice you in there.  Use the EEV to scan the computer the armed guard is at, hack it and upload the email.

Go left when you exit and around the glass room.  Use the OCP on the light, just to be safe and then hack the door.  Enter and turn off the lights.

Continue to the next door, use your lock pick and open.  The security panel is next to the computer on the wall.  All that remains is the treasurer’s office for access.  Use the computer and hack it, upload the email.  Notice the open window?  Jump out, don’t worry…you’ll grab the ledge.  Drop down to the next ledge, mindful of the guard.  Then drop down to the ground and follow the guard on his patrol towards the stairs.

Don’t go up the stairs, you can stay in the dark and go over the side through the garden and up the steps.  There is a keycard door at the top.  Go up the steps somewhat quickly and head to the left at the top, not on the platform.  This puts you in darkness. 

If you head up and to the left, you will get the option to enter a crawl space, so what the heck…You’ve just found the treasurer’s office.  On the wall with the crawl space is the access panel.  You can search the cabinet and complete the secondary objective.  Use the computer, access security and upload the fake email.

Exit via the door.  Head straight in a crouch past the room with 3 guards and pause to look into the window.  There is a computer case above the closest screen to the door.  Use the EEV and hack it from here to upload the fake email.  Once done, continue through the doorway.  On the right is the safe deposit box room, you are looking for #1024 on the left hand side about chest level.  You get some charges and a telemetric lock pick.  You are now to head to the main vault.

Back to the hallway, take a right and go down the stairs.  Nice big vault ahead.  Place the telemetric pick on one of the locks.  Head over to the other one and listen to the instructions.  Pick the first pin.  Wait until no light is red and pick the next.  Continue until you pop the lock.  Now place the charges.

Back up and detonate.  Enter the vault and proceed to the other end, but wait just when you can see the computer.  The ball thing above the computer is a camera/alarm.  Use the OCP to disable it.  Then use the computer, turn off the lights and open the cages.  Don’t forget to access the security on the computer and plant another email.  On the right side as you head out, pick up your cash.

Be careful as you head out the vault, if you turn on your thermal vision you will see a laser trip wire.  Use the OCP to disable it.  If you don’t, 3 guards will come running in (you can avoid them if you do trip the alarm by running up to the dark and hugging the wall as they run past). 

Now, get out of the bank.  You could climb the rope back up to the roof, but why bother.  Head back towards the vault via the retinal scanner door.  On the right side is a lit exit sign, take that door. 

You will then see the fire exit door which leads to the courtyard you climbed the ladder to get to the roof.  Head to the front of the building and find the pipe that leads to the zip line you noticed at the beginning of the mission.  Use the OCP on the light that shines on the pipe then climb up and zip away.  The extraction point is on the opposite side of where you land (inside the courtyard).

Mission 4: Manhattan Garment District, New York [Penthouse]

Objective: Get to Zherkezhi’s Penthouse
Objective: Access the server
Objective: Find out who the mercs work for
Objective: Find Dvorak
Objective: Get punchcards
Objective: Tap 6 security cameras (on rooftop (when Redding mentions cameras), in garden area between room, past kitchen in small hallway, in the living room with the TV, one in bedroom, one in garden past bedroom)


You start out on the street and Lambert tells you the National Guard is on duty and will probably kill you if they see you.  You are not to kill any National Guardsmen.

Head to the left, mindful of the guard here and make your way across the street when his back is to you.  Hop up the ladder and make your way to the top, careful to stay in darkness.  You will reach a dead end up top, hop up on the box and jump up to grab the ledge.

Move around the building to the left and around the corner.  You will reach a pipe you can slide down to the ground.  If you look around you will see 3 guards: one with his back to you, one leaning against the truck like a good union worker, and a third on patrol.

If you head towards the guard with his back to you, you can use the OCP to take care of the light to the left.  He will go investigate, take the opportunity to head to the other side of the truck.  Move towards the front of the truck and recon the area.  Don’t go too far up front.  Use the OCP on the spot light in front of you.  When dark, head towards the garage and find the platform, don’t go up yet.  Wait until clear, hop up and head towards the door and enter the building.

Go left and head towards the technician.  Lambert will let you know that the National Guard is trying to restore power.  You have to use the elevator once it’s repaired.  You will get the clue it’s ready when the door shuts.  The tech will walk away, use the OCP on the light and then go call the elevator. 

Careful when you reach the top as there is a guard here.  Head to the left of the cases and use the OCP on the light.  The guard should go investigate towards the elevator.  Use this opportunity to head to the light, turn left and go up the stairs and open the door.

You now have to get to the other side of the roof where the helicopter is.  There are three guards here.  Head to the left and hug the wall around the corner.  Keep going until you are near the next light.  There is one guard here who goes back and forth between a fuse box and the ground.  When his back is to the box, head across and towards the landing pad, sticking to the wall.  Make your way to towards the spotlight near the pad.

Watch the pattern of the two other guards here.  You have to get to the other side of the shack without being seen.  They sync up nicely after one loop.  When both have their backs to you, head around the shed and find the ladder, climb up, and use the zip line to get to Zherkezhi’s building.

Drop down to the ledge as it’s better than going across a brightly lit wall.  Work your way around the building and you will find you aren’t alone.  There is a merc on the platform above you with a flashlight.  Lambert will order you to find out who they work for.  A quick look at the goals indicates that this can be accomplished by interrogation or via a computer hack.

While on the ledge, make your way around the building until you hear the music and see the opening to the building.  Enter and head to the left and hide behind some furniture.  Your goal is to cut open the material opposite your position and enter the crawl space on the left wall in that room.  Hide behind the furniture by putting your back to it and watch the patrol pattern.  When clear, head into the kitchen and into the next room with the sleeping guard.

Use the EEV on the computer in this room (on the floor) to get the plans for the building/floor.  Head towards the light slowly and exit via the locked door. 

Redding will let you know about the infrared camera system. He also tasks you with tapping into them to keep tabs on Zherkezhi.  The camera that concerns you is in the far corner.  Hug the wall and tap it then use the OCP on it and head up the stairs.  There are two doors for you to choose.

The one facing the stairs is a dead end for now; Grim will let you know that the doors inside that room are magnetically sealed.  You will have to find the panic room to deactivate them.

The other door leads to the penthouse.  There is one guard listening to music.  Stay on the outer wall and work your way around the room in the dark.  Use the OCP on the light on the desk for safety.  Around the corner is a garden area with one camera and a patrolling guard.  [Note: if you are fast enough getting to the area, you will overhear who the mercs work for (Shetland!), there is another opportunity should you miss this].  Hug the wall and get to the other side, when the guard walks away you can go tap the camera.  When done, head into the next door.

There is one patrolling guard here as well.  Hide in the dark near the door, he will be coming into the kitchen soon.  When he leaves head towards the hall he went down, but stay in the dark near the counter.  Wait for him to return and when he goes back down the hall, follow him.  Stay on the right in darkness and put your back to the wall.  Wait for him to leave.     

Go around the corner and be careful of the camera above you pointing towards the next doorway and tap it.  [Note: the area past the camera appears to be an alternate route into the penthouse.  It’s the elevator one of the guards was working on when you pulled yourself up from the ledge outside the building].  Look into the living room and you will some stairs.  You need to get up those stairs, but first you need to tap the camera.  Hug the wall on the right side so you go behind the hanging rug thing.  When the patrolling guard heads back to the kitchen, move into the light and tap the camera.  Head back to darkness when done.  There is one guard in the room with his back to a pillar.

Go up the stairs slightly when safe and then use the OCP on the light above the stairs.  When it’s dark, go all the way up and hug the wall on the left.  You have found the servers, but be careful of the camera on the left side.  Head towards the camera when it is pointing away from you and you can tap it.  Use the computer and you get a little mention of Dvorak.  Use the OCP on the camera and go to the right past the camera.

Switch off the lights in the next room.  [Note: if you missed the conversation downstairs, you have another opportunity if you go down the next hall and use your optic cable on the door].  Hide in the hallway in the corner and wait for the guard to come out.  The last camera you need to tap is in that room.  The guard will pass you, when he does head back to the door.  Open and tap the camera to the left.  When done, head to the left in the dark corner.  Use the OCP on the camera when it is facing towards you.  Quickly go grab the guard and bring him under the camera and interrogate him to find out who is in charge.  KO him and find a dark spot for him.

Head back to the bedroom, and go to the right around the camera corner.  Behind the partition is a door.  Go down the narrow hallway 4Mand open the next door, this is the panic room with the server.  Use the computer to find out where John C. Dvorak is! 

Now you have to get to the magnetically sealed doors down a floor.  Head back out to the bedroom and switch off the light (near the partition).  Then head left and turn off the lights where the guard is.  Creep back towards the camera just a bit.  He’ll go turn the lights back on and head back to his position.  Now go towards the hallway to the garden.  Pause and watch the guard go investigate the bedroom.  Go to the window, drop down and quickly shoot the light out above you.  Otherwise, the guard below will spot you and kill you.  Head towards the camera and drop down to the garden.

Head to the door away from the camera and enter.  Use the OCP on the desk lamp again and creep along the wall towards the door you first entered.  The guard should investigate and sit down again.  Head out and use the next door back to the magnetically sealed doors.

You are now on the rooftop with one guard (with flashlight).  Wait in the dark for him to pass then go across towards the light on the right.  You will see a sloping shack.  Hop up and go forward and you get to see your first wall mine.  Disable it if you want (press interact when the light is green).  Watch the patrolling guard inside the building.  When he walks away from the computer, hop in the window and cross the room to the far right (upper) corner.  Hug the wall to the opposite side and drop down below in the bathroom.

Just to the right is a wall mine.  You can ignore it if you want.  While walking towards the next light whistle and hide in the corner near the door (but to the left of the door, otherwise you get filled with lead).  The guard will come investigate into the room, when he walks past, go into the hallway and keep going until you find the keycard door, open it and enter.

On the opposite side is a man, could this be John C. Dvorak?  Talk to him and find out.  You’re in for a surprise.

Talk to the man and continue the conversation, he’ll tell you who (or what) is Dvorak.  Grim will tell you to get the server started and then turn on each switch as they heat up to get the punchcards(!).  Use the old man for help.  You will have to switch on three switches.  All you have to do is switch them when the tube flashes.  Then go get your output.

Now you have to get to the primary extraction point which is the main elevator in Zherkezhi’s living room.  Head back to the keycard door.  The guard you left behind patrols the area.  Wait for him to turn around and exit the hallway.  Move up and open the door on the right.  Use the optic cable on the next door. 

There is one patrolling guard in the area and two guards above you looking out the windows.  When the guard starts to move away (towards the upper left), open the door and use the OCP on the light directly above the door.

Head across towards the opposite wall and hug it towards the magnetic doors.  Open the door, use the next door on your right.  Use the same strategies as before.  You can switch off the lights in the room or use the OCP on the lamp.  Head around the room and open the door to the garden.  Open the next door, mindful of the guard in the garden.

Follow the next guard on his patrol from the kitchen to the living room.  Wait on the wall on the right.  Open the door to the bathroom when the guard goes back to the kitchen.  Close the door behind you, hop up onto the counter and enter the crawl space.

Drop down and then drop into the elevator, you’ve reached extraction.

Mission 5: Offices of Displace International, New York City

Objective: Recon only, no fatalities
Objective: Find out if Zherkezhi and Displace are working together
Objective: Retrieve server access algorithm
Objective: Access central server in server room
Opportunity Objective: Place tracers in 3 servers (operations room, training, upstairs from turret room)


You start off on the roof, head towards the light and find the narrow passage.  Put your back to the wall and get moving.  In the next area there is one guard and a technician working on the ventilation system.  While they are talking, stay on the left side and move towards the cage they are at.  Wait in the darkness and then hop over the fence.

The technician should be working away from the switch you need to flip. It’s in the middle on the left.  Sneak up, flip the switch and head back to the dark corner and hop the fence.  Make your way to the big fan in the center.  Hop up, pick the lock and then rappel down the wall.  The guard won’t notice you doing any of this.

Go through the vent on the bottom and to the left.  You will now overhear the meeting between Displace and NYC council.  In the center of this area is a trap, use your optic cable to see if it is clear to drop down.

Grim will let you know the executive with the laptop probably has the algorithm.  She will also tell you that you could hack in from a distance to get the code.  Drop down when safe and get out the door, remember to close it behind you.

If you go straight towards the operations room, Grim will give you an opportunity objective.  You are to place tracers on each of the division’s servers.  So let’s get started.  The server you need is in the middle on the top.  It’s easy to get to, just use the computer and hack it, then upload the tracer.

Now, back to the hall and head left and you will see the keycard door.  On the other side are two people.  Make sure you are next to the door unless you want to be spotted.  Hack the keycard and Redding will let you know about the OCP and the special glass.

Head into the area, you have a chance to get the server codes.  Stick in the shadows on the wall on the right and work your way to the couch. Use the EEV and scan the laptop ahead.  Hack in and get the goodies.

The two will soon leave the area, just wait.  When they do, use the OCP on the long light above you and to the left.  Move forward along the left wall and go past the elevator.  The guard at the desk may notice something, keep going towards him, he will pass you and then you will be in total darkness.

Right near you is a door to training gym.  Enter, head left and take another left in the locker room and find the gym area.  There are a bunch of computers in here and a server in opposite where you come in.  You can sneak by the guard using the computer to get to the server (all alone on the wall).  Upload the tracer and exit the same way you came in.

[Alternate note: you can shimmy across the gym on a pipe and drop down next to the server]

Head out into the locker room and take a left, in the corner is a crawl space.  Enter and move forward. 

You should now hear two voices discussing how easy their jobs are.  One even says the subject has the new Prince of Persia (it’s awesome!).  Wait for one to leave, then follow that guy out the door. 

Head back out to where the guard left.  You will come to another room with a staircase and some computers.  Head to the wall near the hallway and recon the area.  Head up stairs while the tech is working on the computer and stop at the top in the darkness.  The guy up here will head downstairs, use this as your opportunity to hack the keypad door to access the last server.  Hack the computer and upload the tracer.  By the time you are done, the tech will be coming back upstairs.  Don’t worry about closing the door, just get out of the room and hop the railing and hang in darkness.  Drop down when safe.

One guard is going to come out of the turret room ahead and check the computers.  When he passes, go to the other side and hug the wall to the door, open and proceed to the opposite end.

Use the camera angle to check when the guard begins to come back to the room.  When he does, stand up and jump to pull yourself through the ventilation shaft and start moving.  At the other end of the ventilation duct, grab the rope and slide down into the server room.  Use the computer and now you have a new objective: get to the top floors and find some info from Nedich’s office.

[Alternate note: you can bypass the turret room escapade by using the crawl space in the last server room]

Get back up the rope or you will be spotted.  Wait for a bit until a tech enters and works on the server.  Work your way back down slowly and exit the room via the sliding glass doors.  Head to the right and pull yourself up onto the server banks and wait.  There is one armed guard in here with you.  He will head in between the server racks near you.  Wait until he leaves for another area and drop down.  Jump up onto the next bank and pull yourself up.  Drop down the other side and head through the pair of doors and open the keycard door. 

This is a brightly lit hallway, so be careful as you move forward.  If a guard thinks he sees something, move to darkness slowly and wait it out.  Just under the camera are two elevator buttons, use one and call the elevator then go up to the top (level 3).

Head to the left and stay at the wall near the elevator and put your back to it.  Listen to the two guards (they also give you the code to the area) and then they will go on patrol.  One will pass you and the other will go down the hall they were in.  Follow the guard who walks past you.  When you see the glass room, activate your EEV and zoom in to record the conversation, this completes the secondary objective.

Once the guard passes you go away from him and down the hall.  Go straight until you see a light.  Use the OCP on the camera or light and head for the door.

Head to the left and hack the keypad door.  There are two computers in here, the one closest to the door has the info you want.  This completes the objectives.  Head back out and use the OCP on the light and go straight and then turn right to find the keypad door.  Go up the stairs to extraction.

Mission 6: Hokkaido
Objective: Bring in Zherkezhi for questioning
Objective: Eliminate Milan Nedich
Opportunity Objective: Retrieve 6 microphones placed by Japanese I-SDF


You start out in a garden, move forward under a branch.  Look up to spot one guard up top.  Use the OCP on the first hanging lantern when the guard turns around.  Quickly head up the rocks sticking to the edge near the guard and wait in the darkness below him for him to turn around again.  When he does, go to the right past a small tree into darkness.  From here, you can pull yourself up to complete darkness.

Stay on the right edge in darkness and make your way up the path towards the hut.  Head to the left and through the doorway.  Pause in the darkness, one guard is about to light a candle.  He will leave shortly, when he does make your way to the candle and blow it out.

Head out the sliding door and go to the right, making sure to close the door behind you.  Head out along the wall in the dark until you reach the next hut.  Climb up to the platform and you will see an open window.  Hop in.  There is a crawl space opposite the window. 

There is a guard on patrol past the crawl space.  You will also notice that a message pops up in the right corner about the microphones, we must be near one.  The first mic is through the first window if you head to the left.  It is behind a tapestry on the wall.  So, we just have to get there without being seen.  The patrolling guard near you does an L pattern in the area and there is one patrolling guard inside the hut you need to get into.

When you exit, the patrol should be going to the left, follow him and keep going until you reach the window on the right just before the light.  When he pauses, hop in and use the OCP on the light inside the hut.  Next to the light is the microphone, disable it and go hide in the upper left corner behind the barrier.  When the inside guard moves, use the OCP on the light again and hop out the window.  Hide in the darkness.  The one time patrolling guard is now stationary near the bathtub.  Head towards him and cut open the material on the left.  You will sneak behind him this way.  On the left is a curtain, go through it.

Head straight towards the next doorway and hide in the darkness to recon the patrol pattern of the next guard.  Use the OCP on the light in the kitchen area when he moves towards it.  Go straight through the room and take a left down the hall to the doorway.  Head right and then straight, find the open window and hop in.  There are two guards in here talking and microphone #2.  The microphones can be seen with thermal vision behind the tapestries.   Move up the middle barrier and when the talking breaks up, use the OCP on the light then go to the middle barrier on the right and find the tapestry next to it.  Disable the microphone.  Then head to hallway by going straight along the wall you are at. 

You are now in the kitchen, head straight, switch off the lights, and slide open the door, slide it closed quickly and drop down into the shadows.  There are two guards and on civilian in the area.  Drop down into the darkness and follow the patrolling guard down here towards the light.  When he moves away, use the OCP on the light and then go to the right hugging the wall and go up the stairs to the next hut.

Microphone #3 is past the Buddha statue on the left and in middle bedroom by the phone.  Head out the sliding door next to the phone and turn on your thermal vision (leaving the door open creates a distraction).  There is a group of baddies in the room across the hall.  Head to the left and find the crawl space and enter it.  The guy in the suit is Nedich.  The party will soon break up and Nedich will leave to the next room.  This leaves on patrolling guard in the room you are currently in.  When the guard turns around, exit the crawl space and close the door behind the guard.

Grab Nedich through the wall and take him back to the crawl space and interrogate him.  Leave his body on the opposite side of the crawlspace area in darkness.  Then enter the crawlspace again.  Exit and go back through the door to the bedroom.  Go through the next door and head left and find the crawlspace (above ground) and enter it.  Exit the other side.

[Note: On another play through, a guard was in the room.  Move up past the door, use the OCP on the light.  Enter the room and go to the upper left corner.  Use the OCP again and then use the OCP on the next room’s light]

There is one patrol here around the plants.  Just past the corner near the switch and valve, is a pipe.  Climb up and you can bypass the small enclosed and well lit garden.  Pull yourself up and make your way in an L-shape around and drop down near the doorway.

Careful of the next patrolling guard ahead and go right, switch off the lights, taking the first left you see.  In this room is a guard and a TV, microphone #4 is behind a tapestry behind the guard.  Disable it.  Then head out and go right, taking the first left you see into a bedroom.  One guard will enter and look out the window.  Microphone #5 is on the left in the darkness, disable it.  Head back out and go right down the hallway.

Head down into the room and switch off the lights if you want.  Open the sliding glass door. You have a few options here: go upstairs or go downstairs.   Let’s go downstairs and head into the darkness near the sliding glass door.  Wait for the patrol to head back up stairs and then open the door and enter the room, closing it behind you.  Microphone #6 is behind the tapestry on the wall near the stairs, opposite the glass door.

Wait here under the stairs in the dark for the guard to return and then follow him back upstairs.  He will pause at the top of the stairs just through the doorway, good thing you can hop the railing and hang on the side to let him pass. 

Go left along the wall, past the see through glass and wait in the corner, there is one more patrolling guard to look out for.  He goes in the house and out to the platform you are on.  Follow him back to the door, careful of the other guard. Slide open, enter, and close the door behind you.  Head to the left and pause near the stairs, the guard should be returning from his patrol now.

Let him pass, then go up the stairs.  Go straight and through the curtain.  Enter the crawl space.  Lambert will let you know you are getting close to Zherkezhi and he wants you to gather as much information as you can.  Exit and go to the right, dropping down immediately and head to the right in darkness.

Unfortunately, you won’t make it in time to get Zherkezhi, so your objectives change.  You are to eliminate Shetland now.  [Note: if you want to see Zherkezhi die by the sword, wait up top on the roof, if you want to have him shot, drop down].  Head towards the hut and then equip a sticky camera, shoot it on the wall to the right and behind the guard and then make some noise.  He will investigate, open the door and head into the room while he is busy. [Note: while perfecting the placement, he sometimes shoots the sticky camera and knocks himself out]

Head into the room Zherkezhi and Shetland were in and find the exit (small exit).  Turn right and you will see the helicopter fly away.  The courtyard ahead has 3 guards.  Walk slowly towards the guard on the left and then go straight towards the two SUV’s.  Walk slowly in between them and then towards the wall and take a right towards the hut and hop up to the platform and then hop into the window.

Don’t go for the candle, but stay along the right side of the room in the dark and work your way around the room to the hallway. 

Extraction is back where you started, so work your way to the rocks in darkness.  One guard remains above you.  This requires timing so drop down when he is facing the pond.  Then wait until he completes his cycle and walk to the rocks he is standing on and then left in the darkness so that you can just see him.  When he turns around, use the OCP on the hanging lamp then walk to extraction.

Mission 7: NKA Coastal Battery

Objective: Discover if rocket launch was intentional or not
Objective: Access BIOS memory of battery
Opportunity Objective: Recover shipping and repair logs


Open the hatch and use the rope to get to the floor.  You will see a worker moving back and forth talking to his buddy.  Move along the right wall and cut open the material.  Hide behind the boxes just under the light and wait for the guy to turn around and walk toward the other.  Use the OCP on the light and go to the shelf on the right, hop up and get to the roof.  Straight ahead is a crawl space.

[Note: there are a few ways into the building ahead, via a trap near the truck is one and through the door is another]

Exit the other side and open the trap door and silently fall into the room.  You are now in the barracks, one guard is sleeping on a chair and the other is sleeping in bed.

There are two ways to go from here.  We will start by going through the open door to the right.  Switch off the lights as you round corner in the hall if you want.  This will cause one guard to investigate and then return to his computer.  There is nothing special about his computer, so we can ignore it.

There is an office in the area with a guard working on a computer.  His computer contains the shipping logs, use the EEV in the darkness and through the window to retrieve this.  Redding will let you know that you need to find 3 more shipping logs from 3 different departments.

Head back to the beds and we will go through the opposite door.  Use the optic cable on the door to see where the guard is in the next room.  When safe, enter and stay in the corner near the door.  Hop up on the shelf on the right, move across, hop up another, drop down other side.

Pick the lock, and enter (closing the door, of course).  Aim the EEV at the computer near the guard in the room to retrieve the second shipping log.  Head back out and back to the right.  Take a right at the first shelf (opening on the bottom shelf) and sneak to the trap door in the right corner.  Open the trap door and drop down. Enter the crawl space and move forward.  You will exit below two guards talking about a missile.

Angle yourself so you can see the patrolling guard, when he leaves make your way to the ladder near the light.  Pull yourself up and hop up on the truck crossing to the other side.  Cut the circuit (red lights) and then move around the front of the truck, hiding in the darkness.

The guard will have returned by now, wait for him to leave.  Hop onto the top of the rig and then jump up to grab the beam that the missile is on.  Move towards the missile, pulling your legs up.  Keep moving and drop down near the missile in darkness.

Drop down to the next level and then head straight and hide behind the box on the right.  Wait for the guard to pass to the right.  Go the left (where he came from) and stick to the wall, find the ventilation shaft and jump up.  Follow the vent and you will be on top of the elevator.  Bypass the circuit here to make the elevator go up.

When you get to the top, there is a vent next to the circuit.  Climb in.  There are two options here to go.  Find the hatch/path (left side) that has the ladder and go down.  Use the optic cable on the hatch below and make sure it is clear.  Open, exit and close the hatch.  Head straight and put your back to the wall on the right side.  Keep going until you turn the corner and pause.  The missile launch wasn’t intentional, at least from the North Korean side.  Which gives you another objective: tap the launcher bios for a fingerprint of the Dvorak algorithm fragments.  This requires you to find the west battery launcher.

Wait for things to break up and for the technician up stairs to head back down again.  When he is downstairs, go use the computer in the upper left corner then exit the same way you entered.  Head back to the elevator using the vents and break the circuit to make the elevator go down.

Find the passage in the upper left corner, follow the path and drop down the vent.  Turn around, go up the stairs and stay on the edge of the room away from the windows.  Head into the dark hallway and open the door.  Use the OCP on the camera then go down the stairs and turn right.  Drop down into the path and follow it to the right.  Pause at the wall and watch for the guard patrolling the west launcher.

There are two ways down into the bunker below the launcher.  We will try the closest one down the stairs.  When the patrolling guard is away, head down the stairs.  Use the OCP on the light above the door and then open and enter the door, closing it behind you.  The last shipping log is on the center console computer facing the ocean.  One guard will patrol the room going from machine in far corner to computer and towards the door.  When he walks towards the far corner, sneak up and use his computer to get the last log.

[Note: if you are quick enough getting to the room, you can open the door and walk up to the computer and use it without having to worry about waiting for the guard to go back to the other side of the room.]

Now, we have to get the BIOS.  Another technician is on the other side of the room working on it.  Go behind the launcher by using the wall on the left.  When you are behind it, equip a sticky camera and then turn towards the door you came in and fire it. Use the noise feature so both technicians go investigate.  When they do, go up to the circuit one was working on and bypass it.  Then drop back into hiding behind it again.

You have to make it back upstairs without these 2 noticing you.  They may both be up front, so use the OCP on the computer screen near the door.  This will make them investigate, now move to the door you came in and hide in the corner for things to calm down.  If one guard is facing your exit door, use the OCP on the monitor again to divert the attention, then head out the door, closing it behind you.

Hug the wall up the stairs and wait for the patrolling guard to go away.  The computer you need to use is on the launcher near the spotlight.  Be careful when you wait on the stairs, as I had the two guards below come up and look around!  When he moves away, use the computer and fall back into darkness.

Lambert gives you a new task, you have to abort the launch of the missile in the east bay.  Head back out the way you came.  When you reach the loading bay, hug the wall and wait for the technician to kneel down.  When he does, use the OCP on the camera and go up the stairs, closing the door behind you and head around the room and down the stairs.  Pause at the T junction hallway and make sure it is clear.  Then head down the hallway to the right, dropping down into the hole.  Go to the left and bypass the circuit.  Go up to the glass and hug the wall.  In the distance, you should see a guard moving to the left.  Use the OCP on the camera when clear, then move across the room towards that guard.

Get to the corner so you can see down the hall.  Use the OCP on the light hanging overhead and move towards the guard.  Once you pass the boxes, put your back to the wall and pass by the guard.  He will leave shortly.  Then use the OCP on the light above the red light circuit.  Bypass the circuit and enter the launch area.  You are too late to stop the launch.

But you can get the codes from the bunker below to get the codes for the warhead.  Head down the stairs and open the door, hug the wall until you can’t move anymore.  The codes are on the computer terminal with the lone guard.  Move towards the middle.  He will get up in about 10-15 seconds (perhaps just a bit longer).

When he gets up and moves to the back of the room, sneak up and use the computer.  Then fall back to the middle in darkness and then head back to the door you entered.  They won’t see you, but they will become suspicious. 

You now have to get back to the command center with the timer still running.  By the time you get to the rail for the missiles, the guard should be moving away from the missile.  Hop up onto the platform and head left, following the guard.  You will make it to darkness by the time he turns around.

Head into the bay and use the OCP on the camera above the stairs and head through the door.  The control console is the first computer on the left in the room.  There is one guard here and another who should be walking in (depending on how fast you did this, he may not even be there).  The walking guard will pause on the right then approach the radar screen/map.  When he does that, sneak up and use the computer and then fall back to darkness near the door.

Now for extraction: head back to either missile launch site and get to the cliff.  Might as well go for the east launcher, right?  Open the door and stay in the darkness, you may have alerted the patrolling guard near the rail for the missile.  Wait it out and then use the OCP on the camera (or both camera/light).  Head for the cliff and avoid the guard as before if necessary, extraction is in the upper left corner of the missile launch area.

Mission 8: Seoul

Objective:  Get data drives from switching station, recover manually
Objective:  Broadcast data securely
Objective:  Interrogate special forces agent
Objective:  Tap mobile command center
Opportunity Objective:  Stop North Korean Propaganda Broadcasts by disabling loud speakers



You start out in the old safe house.  Head out the door and go to the right.  Stop where you meet the ledge and rappel down the side of the wall.  Turn around and then head to the left down the small alley. 

Lambert will chime in and tell you about other splinter cells and give you another primary objective: interrogate a special forces agent to determine the location of Jong.  You will also see a wall mine on the left.  Once you disable it, stand up and hop over the fence in the alley.

Your first opportunity to interrogate a special forces agent is just ahead.  2 of them are arguing and one will walk out to take a leak.  Follow him and grab him, then take him someplace dark and interrogate him.  Pick up his body and head down the street to the left when clear.  Drop him in a dark corner.

About halfway down the street on the right is the first loudspeaker.  Bypass the circuit.  Continue down the street and in the corner, find the pipe.  Climb up and then shimmy to the platform.  When you are up top, Grim will tell you to tap a mobile command center ahead.

Head to the opposite side and slide down the ladder.  Stay behind the boxes and recon. Then hop up on the boxes and go left, dropping down into the darkness.  Loudspeaker #2 is in the corner ahead.  There is one patrolling guard here and one technician working on the command center. 

When the patrol is away and the technician is on the opposite side of the truck, head up the ramp in the back and use the computer to tap the center.  Back out and head towards the loudspeaker and wait it out.  The tech will go into the truck and the guard will be back in the area.  Sneak in back of the truck towards the door the guard is checking out. 

Hide in the dark and continue along the wall and go towards the fire, you should be able to see a ladder to a roof.  Climb it and you will find loudspeaker #3.  Next to the speaker is a crawl space, why not enter?

When you exit, use the ladder and then open the trap door.  You located the switching station.  Quickly go to the only computer that is on and get the drives. The doors are about to be blasted open.  Find a dark hiding space and let the two guards enter.  One will use the computer and the other will stand near him on guard.  Head out the blasted door and go left. 

There is one technician working in the corner, you want to head up the stairs.  Take a left, but not a u-turn.  Go straight and head up towards the elevator.  Then fall back to the corner and put your wall to the back so you can get a view down towards the elevator.  One of the guards will go on patrol and the other will stand guard near the elevator.  When the patrol leaves, slowly sneak up staying close to the right wall and enter the elevator.  Use the elevator to go up.  That ends this part of the mission.


Seoul (Part 2)

Objective: Get to the EA-6B Prowler crash site
Opportunity Objective: Gain info on NK UAV’s
Opportunity Objective: Disable portable Radar Recon Receivers



You start out on the roof and you will immediately see a UAV helicopter with infrared in front of you along with one guard.  If the copter sees you, you will be lit up with machine gun fire very quickly.  The OCP works on the copter, disabling it for a short period of time.

The first radar is directly ahead and below the platform you are on.  Hop over the ledge on the left and use the EEV to scan the computer and disable the radar.  Redding will let you know there are 4 more to get. The guard should just be heading downstairs now.  Near the computer and closer to you is a zip line.  Head under the platform quickly and jump up and grab the zip line.

You will hit a fence, just keep moving to the right until you are in a darker area, then hop over the fence.  You will notice a wall mine ahead, go towards it slowly and ignore it.  Turn the corner and stay on the left.  Jump up near the ledge and grab the pipe and work your way across.  Drop down and turn right and jump to the other ledge above the roof.  Hide near the AC vent thing.  Turn around and wait for UAV.  Use the OCP on the UAV then hop over the AC and then use the EEV on the computer across from you to disable the radar.  Drop down silently and wait for the returning guards below.  Your goal is the door under/near the light here.  Use the OCP to take care of the copter. 

When the two guards move, head towards the door and pick the lock.  You should have just enough time to get through the door.  If you hear the guards get spooked find the ledge of the window.  When clear, head back into the room and go around towards the elevator.  There is a door on the left, open and enter the next area.  You will immediately hear the UAV, so find some cover. 

Just below and to the left is the third radar.  Head to the other side of the broken out bathroom and use the EEV on the computer and disable the radar.  Drop down 2 levels, mindful of the UAV [mine got stuck away from the bathrooms and didn’t move for some reason].  Now you have to get a running start and hop over to the platform where the computer/radar is.  Aim for the far right so you can get to darkness behind a ledge quickly.

When you pull yourself up, a guard will enter and head towards the computer.
  When he does, head for the door and go through, closing it behind you.  Head around the corner to get to the severely broken room, find the planks and use the right side and fall down (if you are entering the room, that right side!).  Release and fall down to the next level.

Now go to the wall that connects the two left over parts of the room, slowly inch out to drop down to the next level.  You are now above the unexploded ordnance.  Drop down onto the ordnance and then head towards the counter.  Stand up and use the EEV on the computer through the little window.  This completes the objective to get info on the UAV.

Hop over the counter and enter the crawlspace.  When you exit the opposite side, you will witness a firefight, with the South Korean victorious.  Jump up and grab the pipe above you and work your way across, when you reach the dead end, drop down.  Find the fence to the left and climb over.  Redding will let you know about some armor up ahead (yay!).  Head to the right and watch out for the wall mine ahead.  There is also an intense firefight.

Use the OCP on the light in the alley and head straight, turning right near the truck.  Go around the truck quickly and find the ladder in the alley.  Climb up and go to the right and pause just near the zip line across the street.  Use the OCP on the light across and zip.  Crouch and quickly fall off the other side and hide in the alley on the left.

Use the OCP on the light across the street and move quickly behind the armor.  Then use the OCP on the light in the corner near the armor.  Go towards the light and jump up and grab the ladder and don’t stop.  Hop over the little wall.  Just next to you is radar #4.  Head past it and go right.

Drop down the broken part of the floor to the level below and go towards the left corner.  Head to the open window and hop out.  You have a UAV to be aware of in this area.  Use the OCP on the closest sign and then drop down a level.  Watch the UAV (or use the OCP) and then drop down another level to the ground.  There are a few guards in the area as well.  Wait for the OCP to head back towards you and then away from the guards. 

Use the OCP on the next sign and then crouch run towards the truck, turning left when you can.  Put your back to the wall and squeeze in between the truck and the wall.  At the front of the truck, go down the alley and then left at the dead end.  Pause at the left wall before the flickering light.

You have company: armor and two guards.  You have to get to the plane down the street on the right.  The flickering light gives about 20 seconds of time to dash across the street.  Use it wisely.  [Note: I did shoot out a sign on the upper side of the street as a distraction, the OCP will also work here].


Once you are at the other side, find the cockpit of the plane.  It’s too badly damaged to recover the data, so you have to laser designate it for destruction.  Lambert tells you to get to fallback to a structure up the street.  On the right side of the street you should see a pole.  Climb up and you will find radar #5.  Go past and find the ledge.

Go straight and use the zip line to cross the street.  Climb up as far as you can go and you will be able to designate the target.

Mission 9: Bathhouse

Objective:  Get into the bathhouse
Objective:  Find out who Shetland is meeting with
Opportunity Objective:  Tap the bathhouse telephone lines (3): Near insertion at top of stairs; Past turret near a desk; in the drained pool area, behind spot light


You start out in an alley, move forward and around the corner.  There is a technician in the area, so be careful.  You can use the OCP on the street light above you and then enter the area and head right.  Keep going and go down a flight of stairs.  Telephone tap #1 is at the top.  Use the OCP on the light again and then tap the phone and head back down the stairs.  Jump up and pull yourself up, using the boxes as cover.

You can slowly move up the street using the right side.  Even with the flashing light, you are in complete darkness.  The goal is a manhole opening on the right side of the street just up from the boxes and past the scooter.  Stay near the boxes by the scooter so you can use the OCP on the light above the opening.

Wait until the patrolling guard with the flashlight heads down towards the technician.  Use the OCP on the light and crouch run to the opening.  Go straight towards the light and up the ladder and open the trap door. 

[Alternate note: you can climb a pole next to the phone line and zip line across to a ledge and then work your way to the opening/manhole; thanks to Foolio]

Quickly head around the machinery and make a u-turn.  Hide in the corner between machinery.  Eventually, the guard will move towards you.  Use the OCP on the light near where you entered.  Then use the OCP on the light where the guard sat down.  Move towards that light and go through the doorway and around the corner. 

[Alternate note: you should have enough time, provided you are quick, to head towards the guard and turn left before the door.  This gives you an area of darkness to hide and wait for the guard to go on patrol.  Then sneak through the doorway]

Head towards the laundry baskets and pause where the board is and use the OCP on the fan.  Work around the edge of the room and head upstairs.  Continue to the door.  Open and head through, closing it behind you and stay near the desk.  There is one guard near you who will leave through a doorway and then open a door and walk into and away from you. 

When he does, go around the desk (inside) and then open the door he went through.  Near the door on the other side of the room is a crawl space.  Enter the crawl space and move forward and exit.  Head towards the curtain and then use your thermal vision and EEV to locate the computer case ahead of you.  Flip off the thermal vision and then hack the computer to disable the camera system.

One guard will remain in the area and patrol from near the desk and up to the top of the stairs.  When he moves up the stairs, follow him.  Wait near the top of the first flight near the light.  Another guard is upstairs and patrols the corridor.  He will shine the flashlight down the stairs.  When he does use the OCP on the light near you and move towards the light.  The patrolling guard you followed will pass right by you (make sure you are on the left, he will pass on the right).  Head up stairs and hug the wall on the right.  Pause here and wait for the hallway guard to come back. 

Both of the guards will head down stairs (the hallway one will only go partway).  This is your chance to go down the hall and enter the first door on the right.  Wait here and use your optic cable to monitor the guards.

[Alternate note: you can avoid the risky stair approach by heading outside from the computer desk on the ground level.  You will have to avoid the guard here and climb the pole near the telephone both and then use the zip line to cross the street and enter the room with the sleeping guard and TV]

When the hallway guard passes you and goes towards the stairs, head out and towards the keypad door.  Switch off the lights first and then hack the keypad.  Enter and find the dark corner in the upper left.  Wait here for things to calm down.  You can then use the EEV on the computer case and find out where the meeting is in the bathhouse.  Go back to the corner and enter the crawl space.  You will find out the I-SDF is in the house!  Use the EEV to tap either computer and you complete a secondary objective.        

Head back into the crawlspace and move towards the door.  Wait for the guard and then wait for him to go back towards the stairs and follow him at a distance, head for the door on the left and close it behind you.  Flip off the lights in the room and head for the open window.  Angle the camera so you can see if the guard below is in the light and looking towards the window.  When safe jump up and grab the ledge.  Move towards the middle of the roof below so you can drop silently.  Head away from the street light and drop down the other side. 

Wait for the guard to patrol away and towards the street light, then head through the door.  Head back to the crawlspace in the closet near the desk.  Wait in the crawlspace and wait for the civilian to enter and exit.  He will be followed by a guard.  When safe, drop down and exit via the door they use.

Head towards the guy working on the ceiling fan, pausing past the first panel because the guard with the flashlight will pause here and then walk away.  When he walks away, head straight and down the hall to the left and put your back to the wall so you can see into the locker room.

There is one guard leaning up against a locker and looking into the mirror.  Head slowly towards him and turn left into darkness.  He will notice something, when you get your music cue, head around the wall and straight towards the bathroom and find a stall to hide in.  Use your thermal vision and wait for the guard to go back to the locker room.

[Alternate route note: When he does, exit the bathroom via the door straight across from the stalls.  Put your back to the left wall in the hallway and approach the corner.  Wait for the guard to go to the left.  Use the OCP on the light and enter the bath.  Stick to the wall on the left and move past the bricks lined up.  Hop the wall and head towards the wall between baths.  Hop the wall again when the guard is approaching where you entered.  The next bath contains a trap door, open it and enter.  Head up the ladder and open the trap.

In the corner near the trap is a valve, this will steam up the place, effectively leaving zero visibility for the guards, but not up close.  Anyway, there are three doors in the area.  If you stay in the corner and face the center, there are doors in each corner.  The one to the right is where you came from.  The one to the left leads to a drained pool.]

From the bathroom stall, exit the bathroom and head left through the door across from you.  Cut the material and enter.  This is the drained pool, head right at the doorway and go into a shower stall.  Climb up the pole here and then pull your feet up and work your way across the stalls, pausing about halfway to get rid of the light up here using the OCP.  Continue, drop down and head for the scaffolding.  Go up the ladder, then use the OCP on the spotlights in the corner.  Behind the spotlight is phone tap #2.  Drop down, tap the line. 

Head through the door and pause near the next doorway, putting your back to the wall.  2 armed guards are here in the steam.  Your goal is to head to the doorway opposite the one you are at.  Stay here and let them both walk away from the door.  Make your way slowly across the room and pause about halfway in the dark.  The closest guard is about to enter the doorway you want to get to.  Wait in the corner near the door and put your back to the wall and stand up.  The two guards will pass you on patrol.  When they move away, head through the doorway.  Pause near the next corner and notice the patrolling guard and turret.  Head in when the guard walks toward the turret and turn left.  Turn on the steam in the room.  Then head across using the baths.  Deactivate the turret and then head through the doorway to the left of the computer.  Stick to the left wall once you turn the corner.

Phone #3 to tap is behind the desk ahead.  There is one patrolling guard here as well, he also has night vision goggles.  When he patrols away from you, cross the room and tap the phone.  Wait in the corner in darkness, waiting for the guard to return.

When he turns around, move towards the desk so you can see him turn the corner.  Follow him, he will turn into a doorway on the left.  Don’t follow him, go straight and then right to the bathroom.  Pause near the light switch and wait for the guard you were following to go back towards the desk.  Do not move until he rounds the corner.  Head to where he came from, turning right through the door.  Put your back to the wall and move forward and hide in complete darkness.  Wait for the guard to return and leave.

You should see a crawl space ahead of you.  That’s your goal. When both patrols leave, head for the crawl space and enter and exit the opposite side.  Drop in the water and stay put.  There is a technician who will walk from the garden area across the plank and to the room on the right.  Move forward and pull yourself up on the plank and go to the garden and enter that crawl space.

You will reach a dead end and overhear the meeting between I-SDF and Shetland, head far enough in to trigger it, then back out of the crawl space.  When you can move again, exit the crawl space and go back through the crawl space near the pool of water.

Cross the hall and then take a left.  Take another left and go through the bathroom, take another left and cross the platform.  To the left is the room Shetland had his meeting, use the EEV and scan the computer and download the file "Chaos Theory."  Then head to the right, disable the wall mine.  Now recon the area, with your back to the paper door, there are 3 guards in the room behind cover with either NVG or infrared goggles and gas masks.  Seems hard, right?  It is, but it requires some planning to get by them.

You have 2 flash grenades and 2 smoke grenades (for cover).  Take the first flash grenade and work yourself to the opening.  Throw it in the upper left corner and fall back to cover.  Wait for it go off and then enter the shower room and hide behind the first wall on the right.  Form here, use a smoke grenade and toss it (with the left trigger) to the right of your position.  Equip a flash grenade again and toss it towards the center/upper left.  Then get up and run to the doorway in the upper right.  If you hear them yell “Let’s try something else,” you’ve been spotted [reload and try again or reload if they start firing].

Carefully round the corner with the wall mine and enter the next area with Shetland.  Now you have to deal with bombs and guards with infrared/NVG.  The first bomb is on the ground in the left corner near where you entered (under machinery).  Shetland will start talking just like a Bond villain.  Shoot the light out above you for a distraction that comes in handy in a few seconds.  You can either hop the fence or break the lock.  Either way, you have to go to the left of the stairs and take another left and go through a narrow passage.  This is bomb #1. 

Make sure you have your shockers equipped and when Shetland stops talking again, you can move.  Head back the way you came and get ready with the shocker  Put your back to the machinery and watch the guard go up the stairs and then above you, the trick is to remain behind him.  Head up the stairs and either shock him or KO him.  Remember to hide his body off the platforms.

You have 1:30 for the next bomb.  Head up the stairs and take a right around the platform.  Near the light (shoot it if you want) and below it is the second bomb.  Hop over the railing and drop down to defuse.  Shetland will come out again and cue another 2 guards. 

Behind you in the corner is a pipe you can climb up.  Before you do this, toss a smoke grenade above you to the platform.  Then climb up the pipe and pull yourself up on the machinery.  You will see the second guard passing below you.  Drop down, sneak up and KO him.  Head back and hop on the machinery again and face the opposite wall, the other guard will have turned around to look for his buddy.  Use the shocker on him.  [Note: the guard may not be aware of his fellow guard’s disappearance.  You can angle yourself between the machinery (waiting for him to pass) and then use the shocker on his back]

Now head towards the remaining light in the room, past the rubble in the platform and to the left is the third bomb.  Hop over and defuse it.  Shetland will appear again and exit the area via the door in the upper left corner.  A guard will also enter through this door.  So jump back towards the junk on the platform, head right and around the machinery.  Pause and face the door.  The guard will notice the light is out and then use your shocker on him.  That does it for the guards here.  Now for Shetland…head out the door and then turn the corner and go up the ladder.

You will get a long scene of you and Shetland yapping.  You can cap him in the head from here or put your gun away and you will knife him.

Mission 10: Japanese Defense Ministry
Objective:  Don’t kill anyone

Objective:  Contact detained American officers



You start outside, head straight towards the garage door.  On the left before you reach the door is a switch to open it.  Use your thermal vision to check the placement of the 2 guards.  Don’t open the door when they are next to it.  Wait for them to walk away.  If you wait just long enough and open the door, they won’t notice right away.

Head right and stay close to the wall.  There is a camera ahead with infrared capability, so be aware.  Just next to the camera is a door that you have to lock pick.  When both guards are away from the garage door, pick the lock and enter.  Close the door behind you and climb the ladder.  Up top, enter the crawl space.  You will be in a bathroom with one guard doing his business in the stall.  He will be a good boy and wash his hands near the crawl space.

Follow him out of the bathroom.  You can do a few things here.  You could follow him diagonally in darkness or go through the waterfall sign to darkness on the opposite side.  If you go via the waterfall, you can sneak towards the guard at the front desk and sneak through the crawlspace and end up near the desk with the guard you followed.  Either way, make your way to the sculpture. 

Turn and use the OCP on the bright light.  Jump up and pull yourself up onto the sculpture.  Repeat until you reach the top and then pull yourself up on the beams.  Work your way to the glass elevator and drop onto the glass.  Move across and find another beam, there is a crawl space up here you can enter.  Exit and drop down.

You will overhear a guard and the two Americans you need to get to.  Head left and drop down into the bushes.  Move to the right and continue until you reach the end.  You can simply move forward and talk to the Americans.  This gives you another set of objectives: access the war room and record the meeting.  Head back the way you entered.  Around the corner is a lit room and a crawl space. 

Get to the crawl space and drop down, put your back to the wall so you can see down the hall.  When the guard is away from you, go right and then left.  Make sure the janitor has his back to you.  Enter that hallway and stay to the left, jump up and grab the pipe.  Drop down when you reach the end, making sure the janitor is facing the opposite way. 

If you look up, you should see an opening on the left just past where the pipe ends.  Jump up and pull yourself up.  Drop down the other side and head for the opening, use the pipe and work your way down.  In the corner is a small passage way.

Head out and notice the two guards.  You have to go left, so do so along the wall in darkness.  Pause at the pillar before the bright light and camera and watch the pattern of the two guards.  Just down the hall is some railing and over the railing a door.  The timing is not good for a straight sneak, so you will have to use the OCP as a distraction.

When both guards are near where you entered from, aim the OCP at the light furthest away from you and near the entry.  This will distract the two so you can hop the railing and enter the building (note that this is the same way you entered in the first place; it just appears less risky than backtracking and climbing down the sculpture).  Climb the ladder, use the crawlspace and emerge in the bathroom.

Exit the bathroom and cross the room diagonally in darkness towards the desk guard.  Conveniently, the light you used the OCP on is now out.  Head towards the glass doors in the darkness and head right.  Around the corner is a light switch.  Use it and go down the people mover on the right.  At the bottom is a camera and two patrolling guards.  Your goal is to go the right and down the stairs.  However, it is best to go left and then around the elevators.

Near the bottom of the people mover, use the OCP on the camera and head left.  One guard is headed up the people mover by now, another headed to the right, and one will investigate the camera when you use the OCP. 

Hide on the wall near the elevator, but before the glass.  Wait for it to calm down.  One guard will pass you and go to the bathroom.  Don’t head down the hall to the right just yet as one more guard will pause at the opposite end and glance towards you and turn away.  You have a small window of opportunity to hit the light with the OCP.  Do it, drop to darkness and then go right towards the light when it goes out.  Keep going and hug the wall on the left when you can see the stairs down.  Wait for the guard who went to the bathroom to pass and go down the stairs. 

Make sure the other guard is away, then use the OCP on the light above you.  Cross the room and hop over the rails to the level below you and wait.  The door to the next area has a retinal scanner, so you will have to hack it.  Stay in the dark corner and use the EEV.

Put your back to the wall near the stairs (where you dropped down) and stand up to check the position of the guards.  Make sure no one is facing the door then enter and turn left.  There are two doors here.  The one closest and to the right contains two guards.  The one down the hall is the server room.  The room with the 2 guards contains nothing exciting except for two sticky shockers.

Go down the hall, don’t worry about the light.  Use the keypad (you should have the code).  There is one camera directly above the server you need to access it.  Shoot it with the OCP and then quickly get under the camera and use the computer.  Head back out and shut the door behind you.  You’ve just unlocked the war room, which is back near the glass elevators in the next area.

Stay at the corner so you can see the glass door.  When safe, head through and hide in the corner next to the stairs.  One guard will come down on patrol and then head back up.  Stand up to recon the area with the camera.  When the patrol leaves the area, head up and the stairs and take a right, staying at the corner near the elevator.  When safe, go left and then right, the doors to the war room will open for you.  Now you just have to find a way in. 

Listen to the conversation with Lambert, there is a clue about it not being airtight.  Put your back to the cube and go right.  Watch the guard, wait for him to turn around and start following him.  The camera only points one way, towards the opposite end of the hall.  This requires precise timing on when you disable the camera.  Pass just under it and turn around and use the OCP.  Continue following the guard.  Jump up and pull yourself up to the ledge at the junction.  Do this right, and you won’t be spotted by the camera.  Time it wrong and you will trip the alarm via the camera. 

Now you just have to jump the gap.  Wait for the patrol to leave then jump, don’t worry about making the guard think he heard something.  Just enter the crawl space and keep going.  Use the EEV and point at the big screen. 

After the conversation conks out, tap the lap top on the right.  After a bit, Otomo will come back.  He’s going to launch a North Korean missile at his own country, it’s up to you to get rid of his servers.  Yay you!

Exit back through the crawl space.  Be aware of the patrolling guard and the stationary guard below.  You will have to drop down in between platforms when the patrol is away from the side you came down.  Use the OCP on the camera and head towards the sliding door.  You will have to be careful of the patrols here as well.  Across the sliding war room door are the elevators.  Call the elevator when safe and head down.

You will then be given another objective: Capture Otomo alive.  Will your objectives ever end?  About half way down the elevator power will be cut and the trap door in the floor will open.  Drop down, grab the ledge and line yourself up with the ledges in the shaft.  Keep dropping down.  And guess what, you now have 3 minutes to get to the server room. 

Get towards where the elevator door would open and pull yourself up.  Head left around the area, following the 3 guards.  Walk slowly and enter the door on the right.  Directly to the right is a switch, this will kill the laser trip wires in the hall.  Continue straight and through the next door.  Stay away from the sliding turret and hop the railing and go behind the red screen and stop near the lone screen near a window.  Silently hop up and drop down.  Pull yourself up behind the 2 guards.  Go up the stairs and around the corner. 

You can hack the server and get some information and then place the charge.  You should have roughly 60 seconds left on the timer at this point.  Head back the way you came and drop in the trench and detonate the charge.  Only thing left (barring more Lambert orders like picking up some sushi for him) is to get Otomo. 

Keep going in the trench and you will come out behind the guards now.  Head up the stairs to the left.  Just keep going until you cue the conversation with Otomo.  He’ll stab himself; you will have to save him.  Turn around and go through the sliding glass door with computers.  In the upper right corner is a trap door that is open.  Drop down and continue until you can pull yourself up.  Get to Otomo and stabilize him.

Now for extraction…except you are 100 feet under water.  Pick up Otomo and head for the windows, place the charge and back up.
