R-05 Escape From Denver | The Main Campaign - walkthrough MGR: Revengeance Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
The shortest of the missions, if you consider the size of the map and the most action-packed at the same time, when it comes to the numbers and varieties of enemies. At the end of the map, there also is no usual boss - just a fight with several Mastiffs that you cannot avoid, which will serve you with a dose of frustration to make up.
Right after the mission starts, note one of the attacking ninja cyborgs, because it is a lefty (1/3) - use the AR, to make sure and locate it.
Claim its arm and deal with the rest of the assailants. Take a look around, then, to find a crate with Endurance Plus. Collect the upgrade and cross the street.
The next enemies (including one robot) can be eliminated quietly (sneak up to them using a cardboard box or a barrel) - if you do not like subtleties deal with them in the regular way, by slashing and dicing everything in your sight. After the fight, take a look around for a green dustbin between the building and the train. Smash it to collect a Data Storage (1/1).
Go towards the marker and note the heavily armored cyborg with a sledgehammer that is standing near the fountain - this is another lefty (2/3). After you have cleared the location, keep following the marker until you reach a long, narrow street full of Dwarf Gekkos. You can sneak past them using a cardboard box or a barrel.
At the foot of the stairs, there is a Gekko Mimic standing - cut it up and deal with the wave of enemies that will soon arrive.
A bit ahead, you will encounter a group of enemies, with another lefty (3/3) among them. They are guarding the last hostage, who is the most difficult to rescue. In the first place, deal quietly with the cyborg on the cornice, and retreat quickly to prevent being spotted. To reach the hostage, and prevent the hostage from being killed, you need to use EM grenades (a phosphorus grenade may work also). Throw the grenade, while standing on the cornice that you killed the cyborg on, and jump down to eliminate the two cyborgs (remember to cut off an arm of one of them). Then, pull the GRAD away from the hostage, to prevent him from becoming an incidental victim of the robot's attack, and deal with the robot. Eventually, rescue the hostage and go towards the marker.
You will encounter a Mastiff, patrolling the street, here - at any cost, try sneaking up from behind to it and eliminating it silently. Soon, reinforcements, in the form of several cyborgs, will arrive. After you are done with everything, approach the metal gate on the left of the street.
Once you approach, a cyborg will fly out from inside. Eliminate it, enter and collect a VRM computer (1/1). Get prepared, however, because you will fall into an ambush set by three Mastiffs - if necessary, exit the building, because fighting all three of them at a time is not an easy thing. After you have dealt with them, go towards the marker, walk through the gate and complete the this mission.
