03: dataDyne - Extraction

Mission 1: dataDyne - Extraction dataDyne Extraction: Overview 1: Access foyer elevator 2: Reactivate office elevator 3: Destroy dataDyne hovercopter 4: Defeat Cassandra's bodyguards 5: Rendezvous at helipad Background - The alarm has been given, and there are dataDyne shock troops ready for you throughout the building. Exit via the foyer elevator is impossible due to the number of ground troops present. The transport will collect you and Dr. Caroll from the helipad. DetErest - Not all that challenging, but on Perfect Agent, you'll have to deal with the dataDyne hovercopter, And the guards armed with shotguns have much better aim, and you lose your health much quicker. You must get upstairs to a computer, and activate the Foyer elevator. From there, continue upstairs, and up another floor, to grab the Rocket Launcher, and destroy the hovercopter. From there, it's up another floor to defeat the rest of the bodyguards armed with shotguns, and then to the helipad to exit the level.   You'll begin, and see nothing but blackness. Turn your Night Vision on from your inventory. The door in front of you opens. Step back, and pick off the guard hiding behind a desk. Head forward, and to the left. A door is there, but step to the right and open it. Back up to shoot the guard in that room. Once he's fallen, enter the room, but stay to your right, along the wall. To the left, are guards behind barriers in another room. You can sometimes shoot them without them shooting at you, depending on whether they saw you enter the room or not. Out of that room, look to the right, around a corner. Another guard is hiding behind a fallen desk. To your left, up and behind the guards you shot behind the barriers, is a flight of stairs, with two guards perched on top. You can't pass by the barriers, but you can knock off both guards from down there. Head right, past one of the guards you shot behind a desk. Your route heads around a left corner, so move against the right wall, and creep forward to spot two more guards behind a desk. Continue on, and the route heads left again, with another guard behind a desk. Past him, is a flight of stairs. Head up it, and to the elevator on your left. Objective 1: Complete.On Perfect Agent, the lights will come on at 1:00 into the mission. You'll need to turn your Night Vision off. The elevator takes you up quite far, to a higher floor. Exit the elevator when it stops moving up, and head out, and to the right. A guard is far around the corner, behind a desk. Right behind the guard, is a door. The dataDyne hovercopter is patrolling around the building, so turn up the volume, or turn down the music from the options screen, to hear the hum of the copter. Once it is past, you can head through the door, and follow the hall which turns left, and left again, down a straight corridor. Two dataDyne Female Guards will rush around the corner. The copter may be starting another circle, so you may wish to head back and take cover in this office around the corner, closest to the door you entered the hall from. Once it is safe to pass, rush through the corridor again, all the way to the end this time. Take out the Female Guard, and activate the computer to access the foyer elevator controls. Objective 2: Complete. Don't wait for the controls to finish being accessed. As soon as you press "B", you can leave. The objective will complete itself, even after you leave. Expect to meet up with the dataDyne chopper on your mad dash out of there. Don't challenge it, just keep running, which decreases it's aim, and your chances of being hit. Head back to the elevators, and this time, the one you did not come from will be opened. Enter it, and head up. The next floor has two shock troops hiding behind a barrier. Lean out for a split second, and jump back while they fire. When they pause, jump out and blast them. Head through the door on the left. Head left through the door, and keep going. You'll meet up with one Female Guard, and then through a door, two more. At the pair of guards, head left, and through the brown door visible in the right screenshot. The door leads you upstairs. Up there, you will find a shock troop conversing with two office workers. Blast the shock troop who is armed, but don't worry if you hit an office worker. They won't attack you, and you can kill them without failing the mission. Grab the Rocket Launcher on the pedestal where the shock troop was. Blast open a window with another weapon, then select your Rocket Launcher, and equip it's second function, the targeted rocket. Wait for the copter, then send a rocket in it's general direction. With the targeted rocket, it will seek out and destroy the copter, as opposed to relying on your aim with a standard Rocket hitting the moving target. Objective 3: Complete. You only have a single rocket to destroy the copter, and if you miss, you'll be doomed to wasting round after round of ammo to destroy it. Well placed shotgun rounds are most effective though. Head up the stairs, behind the pedestal. You'll enter a doorway, and into a room with Cassandra DeVries. Turn on your night vision, despite the bright light. The lights will go off, and head straight forward, ambushing two of the guards against the wall. Head into the corner, and pick off the two other guards on opposite sides of the room. The final guard is harder. She's up the stairs, and around a corner. Head for the stairs, but stay on the inside. Strafe out, and hit here when she's not shooting. Kill her, and as long as you've killed every other Female Guard in the place you'll get the Objective 4: Completed message. Head out the door behind her, and turn off your night vision. You'll be on the roof, where you simply go up the stairs, and to the helipad where you began in your very first mission. Just step onto the helipad, and the Cinema scene kicks in. Objective 5: Completed.
