Walkthrough - Taipei - Intercept Assassination Plans | Taipei Alpha Protocol Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

INTRODUCTION:

You can buy additional Intel for this mission (use the computer in the hideout and choose Clearinghouse). The available options are:

- Additional Intel on the CSP.

- Heck's help in eliminating part of the enemies. It's well worth it, as at most important moment of this mission he will be able to eliminate a quite big amount of enemies for you.

MAP:

CONVERSATION WITH OMEN DENG:

This mission will begin with a talk with Steven (even if you didn't agree to his offer with using the computer terminal in the hideout). After you get to the station, you will meet Omen Deng. You don't need to worry about having to fight. You however can choose how to behave twice and if you want to gain rep points, choose professional.

GETTING TO THE TRAIN RAILS:

You begin in a place (M19, 1) to which first enemies will come in just a minute. You can of course attack them, which shouldn't be too problematic. If you prefer to stay silent, you can wait for them and easily eliminate (screen) or jump down to the tunnel below, pass through the corridor north and go up the ladder (M19, 2). In total you have to look out for three enemies here. Use the new door (M19, 3) and go up the stairs.

Now you will find yourself in a multi-level room (M19, 4) with new enemies to eliminate. Staying silent is still possible, but you will have use a silenced weapon to properly eliminate the enemies on the upper floors. Look out as two new enemies will enter the location in just a while - try to eliminate them from a distance and without taking any risks. Head to the passage leading to the next location (M19, 5).

Begin with eliminating the guard who will walk right next to you (M19, 6). The second one is standing a bit further and staying silent will be more difficult this time. After you get to the marked zone (M19, 7) it will turn out that jumping down on the rails is impossible, so use the nearby ladder for a change.

GETTING TO THE TRAIN STATION:

Soon you will get to a bigger room (M19, 8), which will be patrolled by four enemies. Luckily you can easily eliminate them. Begin with approaching the guard at the upper balcony from behind. Now head lower, while silently eliminating two more enemies (screen). The last guard will be patrolling the northern part of this area and you can surprise him by, for example, walking on the pipes by the eastern wall.

After securing the area, return to the upper balconies and choose the northern wall passage (M19, 9). Now head to the east. Ultimately you have to get to the entrance of the train station (M19, 10), where you will get further directives. Make sure not to lean out too fast, as there's an active camera above you!

DISABLING THE SECURITY SYSTEMS:

The train station is being patrolled by two guards and if you don't want to lose reo points with Mina or drawing the local forces' attention, you have to only knock them out and not kill. It won't be as there are four security cameras in the area. I'd suggest taking care of the one patrolling the eastern part of the platform first (screen) and then move on to his friend who will go north.

There are two paths leading to the guards' room. I definitely don't suggest using the moving stairs (M19, 11), as you would probably get noticed and need to fight back. It's better to get to the closed door located at the northern part of the platform (screen) (M19, 12). Breaking the security won't be easy, so consider using an EMP.

After getting inside, break inside the safe on the ground level in order to gain the Customized Shotgun Magazine (shotgun upgrade) (M19, 1). Carefully go up the stairs, wait for the guards to stand on the right and surprise them both (screen). After the fight, look for the Steel Pocket Inserts (armour upgrade) (M19, 2). Head east and localize the panel marked by the game, which you have to use (M19, 13).

OPENING THE GATE:

Return to where the enemies were standing and break into the nearby computer terminal (M19, 14). Naturally you can choose between a mini-game and using an EMP.

GETTING TO THE PERSON HOLDING THE DATA:

Now you can return to the main train platform, luckily with already disabled cameras. Head to its southern part and use the newly unlocked path to the lower platform (screen) (M19, 15). The game will then play a short cutscene.

CHASING THE PERSON HOLDING THE DATA:

Don't worry about having to chase him, he'll always wait until you get close enough to him and continue running then. For now you need to focus on eliminating the CSP agents. If you can't count on Heck, you need to hide behind the covers and use grenades. If you did buy Heck's help, wait for him to appear in one of the cars and eliminate all the enemies (screen) for you. Check out the main part of the platform and you'll find a suitcase with Intel on CSP (M19, 1) and the Vented Rifle Action (assault rifle upgrade) (M19, 3).

Head towards the platform exit (M19, 16). After you break the security on the door, go down the stairs and go east. Soon you will reach a new underground tunnel (M19, 17) and here you'll need to head north. You'll of course meet enemies on your way and fighting them here will be obligatory. Use grenades to your advantage and frequently use the side corridors to get cover. Eventually you will reach the next platform and will need to QUICKLY get from the rails (M19, 18), as a train will arrive here in just a moment (screen).

Continue going north. The man you're after will run each time you get too close to him. Eventually jump down from the platform and head toward the northern tunnel (M19, 19). After the cutscene, quickly eliminate the aggressor and interact with the switch (screen) (M19, 20) to avoid certain death (you only have 20 second to do it!).

DECIDING ON THE TAIPEI EVENTS:

After the mission, there are two conversations waiting for you - one with Mina and one with Leland. The first one is more important, as you will have to decide (screen) between collecting evidence of the planned riots (Riot) and evidence on the planned assassination of the president (Assassination). Regardless of the decision, a new mission will be unlocked - Contact President Sung. After you complete the mission, check out the inbox, as you will receive new Intel on Omen Deng from Mina.
