Last update: 11 May 2016

Move toward the center of Dubai

Follow your team-mates, remembering to read the game screen prompts. The first of them relates to the sprint option, activated by holding SPACEBAR. Along the way you should also practice taking cover (also SPACEBAR), although initially you won't encounter any enemies.

P After reaching the lookout point, turn right, jumping over an obstacle (left SHIFT). Move to the hook indicated by the game and press SPACEBARE to mount and rappel down the line. Continue to march among the wrecks of vehicles. Along the way you can practice changing your weapons, activated by pressing E. Approach the bus wreckage to get updated guidelines.

Find the emergency transmitter

Follow your team, jumping over another obstacle. Approach the wreck of the bus from the right side (screen above), jump inside and head to the exit door, dropping down (SPACEBAR). A little further the game will force you to crouch and this is done by pressing left CTRL.

After reaching the area shown on the above screen, first approach the transmitter, at which Lugo has stopped. Then examine the jeep, which Adams is interested in. This will lead to displaying a cut-scene on meeting the first group of armed and hostile refugees.

Do not wait for the end of conversation, but aim at a place indicated by the game - at one of the shutters of the sand filled bus. After that action quickly get rid of those enemies, who were not buried by sand.

Do not run after your team-mates right away but stay for a few moments at ambush place. Look here for Intel Items shown on the above screen - Conrad Confession Letter and pick it up (hold R key).

After reaching new area, quickly take cover behind nearest cover. Start with eliminating opponents standing on the platform to the right (screen above|) and then deal with these in front of your team (it is worth to target cylinders). After that take care of some bandits who will come running from the left.

Go to the next area. Again, you have to take cover quickly. It is also a good opportunity to test flash grenades. Turn towards the bus, where enemies are hiding and press MMB to order your subordinates to throw the mentioned grenade.

Wait until the grenade explodes and quickly shoot enemies in the bus, focusing on the machine gun operator. Also take care of bandits standing on the bus's roof. After the fight, go through the bus, used by refugees as a fortification.

When the new fight begins, the game will propose you to test one more mechanism connected with giving orders to your subordinates (in this case it is Lugo, a sniper). Turn the camera to an enemy indicated by the game, hold MMB and point the red triangle on mentioned opponent. Now release mouse button, marking the refugee to be killed.

Wait until the sniper eliminates the threat and move forwards, taking cover behind one of the low walls. First take care of enemies who will appear on the bus's roof and on the container. After that attack armed refugees who will come running from one of the containers.

Make sure that you've eliminated all enemies and enter the container, from which some of them run out. Go to the other end of the container and perform melee attack (left SHIFT). According to the game hint, walk quickly to the fallen enemy and finish him (left SHIFT again).
