You start off in the level chasing after a patrolling jeep. You are required to
destroy the jeep before it reaches the village - which is some distance away, but
it can be destroyed in several seconds if you manage not to crash the car against
the walls too often.
After you have destroyed the jeep, make your way to 003's hideout. When you arrive
at the perimeter of the hideout, an automatic ramp folds out from the rocks, enabling
you to drive into the area. Drive towards the blue circle next to the house so
you can get out of the vehicle. After going inside the hideout, you are required
to drive to Hotel Americano, to pick up Serena, which is located further north from
your current position. Try not to drive around too much as you are under a time limit.
You need to drive around a certain route, as some areas are blocked off by heavy armoured
tanks which can literally cripple your car.
When you reach the first village area, try to avoid contact with any patrolling vehicles.
Nothing bad necessarily happens, but its just the constant annoyance of being chased all
the time that can make things frustrating. Utilize the cloaking device while going through
the heavily guarded parts of the villages, while deactivating it sometimes to recharge the
power. When you reach the roadblock - blocking the way between the first and second village
area, M suggests that you quickly create a distraction to break up the roadblock. If you
wanted to, you can drive straight through it, but then you will not be able to earn one of
the bond moments. If you want to create the distraction however, drive nearby the Fireworks
Workshop and look for a blue circle across the road from the building, which will hide your
car from the patrolling vehicles while you use the RC Car.
When you are using the RC Car, cross the road with it and go up the strairs to get to the
second story of the building. Move along the ledge to find a small vent that you can burn
using the RC's laser gun - but do not use the laser too much as it depletes the cars
energy, causing it to explode shortly after. Once the metal hatch has been burnt
off, go inside the room stashed with crates full of fireworks and fire the laser once again
at the exposed sticks of fireworks. This causes the building to explode, creating a
great distraction and earning you a bond moment. Now make your way towards the Hotel, while
cloaking whenever you may pass any remaining patrolling vehicles. The car will automatically
drive to the blue circle when you get close to it.
After picking up Serena, she tells you that all the police belong to Diavolo, so that
obviously means that they are hostiles now. Now you have to make way to the other side of
the level to reach the mountain fortress. Once you start driving, rely on your
vehicles cloaking device to pass through enemy vehicles without getting caught.
You won't have enough power charge to hold the cloak up for the whole trip to the
fortress, so you are required to decloak to recharge the power while you are not
near any hostile forces. Using the mini map at the top left corner of the screen
will aid you when an enemy has been detected nearby, showing up as a red dot.
If you do use the cloak, be careful not to bump into buildings or vehicles too
hard, or else it will interfere with the mechanism, causing it to fail.
When you get closer towards the fortress, take a shortcut nearby the main road to earn the
second bond moment in the level. When you reach the part of the road nearby the coastline
area, a cutscene showing a tank driving towards you will shoot at a large pillar
nearby, blocking the direct path to the fortress. Take the alternate route, which is simply done
by taking a left from where the large pieces of debris landed on the road. After the
next cutscene showing you skip along the shortcut, you will need to be going at a fast speed
and have good control over the car to land at the opposite side of the ledge. Try to aim for
the middle part of the ledge as this is probably the best part of the ledge to land at.
Once you make it over, drive up the steep hill and head back towards the main road leading
towards the fortress.
As you follow the road a bit more, M tells you not to take the front entry of the fortress
as its being defended by tanks, so you will need to take another alternate route inside.
To the left side of the road, when you get close to the fortress, is some barracades with
black and yellow stripes blocking another entrance. Simply drive through this barracade
to finish this mission. | |
