Mission 04: TIME AND FATE | Missions: Walkthrough CoD: BO II Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Objective: Rescue Josefina
As soon as you hear Josefina's cry, it will mean that the mission has really begun. Go down the slope eliminating the enemies (picture above) - use the shotgun to take out the first and the machete to get rid of the remaining three. At this point, your character will take out the shotgun again. Rage makes you much more resistant to shots - similarly to the optical camouflage in the second mission. However, this does not mean that you are immortal.
Do not run to the opposite square, instead head for the building on the left (picture above). Your gun has unlimited ammo, so don't hesitate and start shooting at the enemies gathered here. When you take a few steps forward, look to the right - that's where a lot of enemies will be standing in line. All you need to do is to hold the fire button to kill most of them. Wait here for a moment for the next enemies, they can come running from any side, so be careful.
Kill the enemy at the door in the opposite house, go inside and up the stairs. Kill the soldier at the top of the stairs, and then another one in the room on the left. Further on the left there is a balcony entrance - use it and walk over the planks on the left to the other side. At the same time, be prepared to kill the two enemies who will run out from the right side (picture above), as well as the next two who are on the left. Go toward the word "Use" - press the use button by the axe in order to throw it at the opponent. Thanks to that you will fall in protective rage. Get between the enemies and start cutting them with the machete.
After killing all those who were nearest to you, run to the left and up. New enemies will be appearing to the left and to the right. Watch out for those who are hiding - there is one behind a small car on the right, the other ones are up, behind the covers, etc. Eliminate them, but do not hesitate to hide if you get hit too much. In the end, you will come to the place with another soldier harassing a woman (picture above) - kill him and then open the barn door on the left.
Start to sprint forward. Menendez will take out the machete - start using it - kill the soldier who's over the woman, then run ahead and cut the next enemies that come in your way. In the meantime, take a look at the car on the right (first picture above), hide behind it and wait for about two seconds until new opponents come running to you. Cut them and then run out and kill the enemies at the gate on the right. Only after clearing this place can you go back to the cart and take intel (1/3), which is lying on it (second picture above).
Go back to the gate and run through it. Now simply keep going forward down the main street, you don't even have to hide. Shoot the enemies you see. Virtually all of them will appear in front of you, but the last one, just before the gate to your property, will be on the right. Wait for the allied vehicle to ram the gate, so that you can enter the square (picture above). If you want to be especially careful, slowly move closer to the house eliminating enemies from concealment. Although using the heavy machinegun mounted on the car that has just rammed the gate is tempting, you should know that it is also very dangerous - enemies will be shooting at you from all sides (however, the gun is related to a challenge).
You can slowly and systematically finish off the enemies, or at random - hoping that the rage will protect you - run towards the front door. Once you're inside (picture above), kill the enemy on the left and then the next two on the stairs - run up the stairs. You'll get to the door - Menendez will open it himself. Watch all the cutscenes until you get to the second part of the mission and play as Mason.
Objective: Clear the Cartel village
Look to the left, jump down and run behind your team-mates until you reach the river. Hide by the rocks on the left. It's a good position - thanks to it you will easily see everyone and everything, including the entrance to the village (picture above). Take out the sniper rifle, turn on the scope, use the extra zoom and start to look for and take out the opponents. Pay particular attention to the one in the window of the building on the right, keep looking out for the enemies between the buildings (they will be hiding, among other places, behind the two blue barrels), and also kill a few hiding in the building on the left. The next ones will be hiding in its further, left side (you'll need to lean out more). Remember that the wooden blinds do not prevent the bullets from your sniper rifle to go through, so if you know where an opponent is even though you can't see him - because he's hiding - shoot blindly. It is highly likely that you'll get him anyway. However, watch out for civilians! A group of them will run out after a while.
When your team-mates go to the village, do the same. Hide by the left hut, behind the back of the iron cage next to Hudson. First, concentrate on the enemies on the iron roof of the watchtower in front of you (picture above) - there will be two of them. Then look out for those who will be running up to watchtower from the left, from the adjacent building. Others will be running downstairs. Look out for them and shoot at the places where they are - even if they are hiding behind a cover, for example, some hay or a cart, or just standing in the grass.
Move to the next cover - a white barrel. Get down on the ground and look below the building on the left (picture above). You should see all the enemies in the blue building in front of you - two on the roof and several on the balcony. After killing them move a little further - behind three wooden crates on the left. Now you must look to the left and check if there is any enemy hiding there. If not, run up to the blue building and go inside. You should notice a word Access. There can be an opponent in the room on the left - kill him and then look to the right and take some Molotovs from the crate.
From now on you need to especially watch out for grenades - run as fast as you can if there's any near you. Exit through the east door and hide behind the boulder. Look over its right, lower part (first picture above) and using the sniper rifle take out the enemy in the window, and then another one who's on the porch on the left. Lean out to the left and kill a few enemies on the road in the distance, and then check the abovementioned window again. If there is someone new there, shoot him. Sprint to the hut and hide on the stairs. Lean out to the right (second picture above) - you should see the stairs leading to the top, and also an opponent on top of them. Next to him, on the left next to the tree there is another one. Shoot them both, watching out for grenades and go where they have been standing.
When you reach the top of the stairs, turn left and immediately hide behind the tree on the left side of the path. In the open building in front of you there will be a lot of opponents. This is a perfect opportunity to use all of the newly acquired Molotovs (picture above). Throw them at different places to kill all enemies. It's best to throw all of them, as there will be some ammo crates here anyway.
Throw Molotovs until you join Hudson and Woods. Then start to carefully lean out and take out the rest of the enemies in the building. Watch out for grenades! Sneak under the iron plates and go up the low stairs. Be prepared to instantly kill one enemy on the left (do not worry, at the beginning he will not be shooting at you) and then hide by one of the wooden walls on the right. Lean out to the left or right and start killing soldiers in the opposite building (picture above) - they will be on the roofs and on the balcony, as well as inside the building on the left. It is likely that your allies have already killed most of them. If you cannot see any enemies, notice the direction where your team-mates are shooting. Remember to refill your ammo!
After clearing the place, jump down on the road and run south. After a while you will reach a place with a huge boulder on the left and a well to the right. Here you can pass a challenge if you hit the driver of an oncoming car. One way or another, get rid of this threat and then hide behind the rock and lean out to the left (picture above). There are a lot of enemies, but the fight is not going to be difficult - simply eliminate them from left to right - they will be hiding in the vicinity of the cart on the left, and also around the second cart in front of you and under the roof of the building on the right.
When you eliminate this group, you will be able to move to the cart. Lean out to the left (first picture above) and start to shoot at an even bigger group of enemies. They are all gathered close to one another and they're standing virtually everywhere - in the windows on the right, on the balcony on the left, in the courtyard below, by the road to the right, and even in the hedge on the left. After killing most of them, your next hiding place should be at the beginning of the white wall on the left. Hide behind it and lean out to the right. Watch out especially for the enemy right above you, hiding in the hedge! Go around cart on the road and quickly hide behind the trunk. A vehicle with a heavy machinegun will appear on the road. Carefully lean out in such a way as not to be visible, but to see the gunner's legs (second picture above). Of course, take him out.
Keep going further along the wall on the left and eliminate enemies in front of the building. Finally, you will be able to hide behind the pots. Kill a few enemies in the hall and run into it. Watch out - an enemy with a shotgun might be hiding behind one of the corners. Run below the building and immediately stand on the left or right of the door (picture above). Lean out and shoot at the legs of the enemies standing on the floor. Afterwards, go to the second floor and into the room. When the door to the balcony stands open, jump down to the ground.
Objective: Assault the Mission
You can use the time during which Hudson and Woods will be arguing to obtain additional weapons. To do this, go right and notice the door to the garage on the right with a word Access (picture above). Lift it to take some mortar shells. Go forward and hide behind the low wall on the right.
Once again, use the sniper rifle. Your first task will be to kill three snipers. Look at the left side of the property. Two are standing on the balcony, a little to the right, and the third is above them, on the left (picture above). Kill everyone and then take care of the enemies running out of the main gate. Start to crawl under the wall, so that the enemies won't be able to see you. Go further and right, to get behind the building where you the found the mortars (you can stop for a moment behind the wooden wall to the left of the building).
When you get to the end of the wall, look for the entrance to the bell tower, to the right of the main gate (picture above). Take out the rifle and start running in that direction, ready to kill anyone who gets in your way. Watch out for the enemies hiding in the hedges on the left! Throw a few mortar shells at the bell tower - they should land on the other side. Afterwards, jump on the barrels, shoot a round at the enemy who will appear here and then quickly hide behind the ladder on the left.
Start leaning out to the right and eliminate the enemies you can see and then climb the ladder to the second floor of the bell tower. Here, on three wooden boxes, you will find intel (2/3) (picture above). Go to the top of the bell tower up the other ladder and immediately hide behind any of the columns.
Your next task will be to take out five enemies in key positions in the opposite property (picture above) - there will be one sniper in the window of the left and right tower, as well as three enemies with rocket launchers on the balcony. Afterwards start to search for the heavy machinegun operators downstairs and kill them - scatter the remaining mortar shells around and then use ordinary weapons until the area is completely clear.
Objective: Clear the Cocaine Bunker
Wait until the conversation is over and until you can go down the ladder to the cocaine bunker. Do not attack yet, just have a look at the extremely valuable ammo crates (picture above) - they will be exactly in front of you, next to the window with bars. Right to the left there is a door with a word Access - pick the lock to get the machete.
There are plenty of enemies in the room, but you can make use of all the Molotovs and mortar shells, right? Keep hiding behind the boxes and start to throw what you have at the enemies. Thanks to that you will manage to eliminate most of them (picture above). But be careful when pulling back or refilling your ammo as someone might hit you through one of the barred windows in the previous room! Remember that you can use them yourself to hit a few enemies.
Your main task is to go further, because if you do not, enemies will be appearing endlessly. Therefore, after killing most of them, walk up to the door on the right (picture above). Eliminate the enemy who's hiding around the corner with a shotgun and then everyone in the next room (you can also throw some mortar shells at them).
Get to the end of the room and look out to the left. Eliminate enemies you can see and then jump over the rail and quickly take out the enemy behind the desk on the right. It is also possible that there will be another one hiding in the room on the left. The desk, behind which the enemy was hiding, will be your main cover during the clearing of the next big room of enemies (picture above). Lean out in different directions and kill them. Do not forget about grenades, Molotovs and mortar shells if you still have any.
Having thinned out the big room on the right, do not go there yet. Instead, enter the room directly in front of it. You will find the last intel (3/3) on the bench (picture above). Take it and stand by the door. Again, lean out and kill enemies. Quickly finish off the two exactly opposite the entrance, who are burning the documents, and then shoot the rest hiding among the desks on the left.
After you've entered the great hall with the documents, run straight, then turn right and right again. Pick up an envelope lying on the desk to find evidence of the CIA activities (picture above). Next, get out of the dead end and head toward the desks, hide around the corner and lean out to the right. Throw a mortar shell at two enemies hiding on both sides of the next door, or if you do not have this weapon, finish them off with an ordinary rifle.
Objective: Find and capture Menendez
Simply run behind Woods, follow him, go up the ladder, and quickly kill the opposite enemies. An enraged Woods will run through the small yard, but you shouldn't do that. Instead, lean out carefully and to take out all the enemies (picture above) - one directly in front of you and the rest upstairs, behind the rail. Then run up to Woods who's standing by the door.
