OPIS PRZEJSCIA MISJI:

First of all, you will have to wait for a longer cut-scene to end (#1). It's best that you listen to what Lambert has to say. You will have to try and prevent the explosion from happening, without losing your trust with the JBA. You should be able to regain a full control over Fisher's movements in a short while (#2).

Start off by making a few steps forward. You should be able to find a couple of interesting upgrades here (#1). Make sure that you take all of them. You won't have to do anything about the guards. They won't barge into your room. Head on to the balcony and jump over the balustrade (#2). Start moving towards the right edge of the screen.

There's a large pipe here. You will have to get to it. Keep climbing upwards (#1). You should be able to reach a new ledge very soon. Once again, you will be moving to your right (#2). One of the security officers is occupying the balcony. You will have to avoid him for the time being. Just make sure that he doesn't see you.

You will have to wait here for a few seconds. A second guard will show up here very soon. Wait for these guys to finish their conversation (#1). Thanks to that, they will both leave this area. Jump over the balustrade (#2). Make sure that you're crouching here. Enter the casino area and hide by a large object that should be located in front of you. Save the game!!

You will have to wait for Enrica to hack into the computer system of the casino. As a result, some of the nearby slot machines will be activated (#1). This will distract the guards, allowing you to make a move. Don't leave this area just yet. One of the guards is heading this way (#2). You will have to wait for him to turn right before you decide to move on any further.

Your main goal here will be to reach an opposite end of the casino, because that's where a small security room is located. Turn left and start moving forward (#1). Head on to the central area of the casino (on your right). You should be able to reach a small table (#2). This object will provide a great cover, so it would be best to make a stop here. Save the game!

As you've probably noticed, this area is being patrolled by a single guard. You will have to wait for him to turn around. Start moving towards a small room (#1). You shouldn't have any problems locating it. There are a few things that you will have to take care of. Choose the pistol from your inventory. You will have to use your EMP pulse in order to disable the security camera. You should also get rid of the light (#2). Destroying it seems like a good idea, especially since you won't be leaving this area anytime soon. I would recommend that you hide in a nearby locker, especially if you decided to destroy the light.

You will have to wait for this entire situation to calm down. Exit the locker. Thankfully, you won't have to worry about the camera, because it's totally dark in here. Activate the nightvision goggles. Let's look around a little, shall we? You may consider opening the safe. There are a few grenades in it. Turn around and open a ventilation crate. You will have to press a grenade icon (#2). Thanks to this, you will be able to fulfill one of the primary NSA objectives.

You will have to leave the casino area, however this will be very tricky. You can play this out using various approach methods. I would recommend that you hack into a nearby computer panel (#1). This will allow you to shut off the rest of the lights. Next, you would have to leave this room IMMEDIATELY, because all of the nearby guards would show up here. If you don't have enough time to escape, you can also hide in the locker (#2), however this wouldn't do you much good.

If you don't want to use the panel, you could try distracting some of the nearby guards. Lean out carefully. Use your pistol. I would recommend that you aim at one of the casino machines. Use the EMP pulse in order to activate it (#1). This will allow you to get past the guards. Turn left. You shouldn't have any problems locating a large door. I have to warn you, though. You would have to leave this area very quickly. Alternatively you could start neutralizing the guards (#2). There are four of them in the casino area, so it shouldn't be much of a problem, especially since you could use the tables for cover. The choice is yours.

The main objective here is to leave the casino area. You will have to open a locked door (#1). I assume that you're using an upgraded lockpicking tool, so it shouldn't be much of a problem. You will find yourself near a large staircase (#2). Save your game here! It's very important.

You will have to start moving towards the upper floor. I wouldn't recommend stopping here. You will have to neutralize one of the security guards along the way (#1). You could also try and ignore him, however it's best to have him out of the way. Once you've reached the top level, head on to the left door (#2). It would be wise to create a savegame here.

This is one of the most difficult sections of this map. The objective will be to reach a small passageway that's located on the other end of the bar area. The problem is that there are a lot of enemy guards here. You could try knocking them out, however this won't be necessary. Once you've entered the room, start moving forward. You will have to hide by the table (#1). Wait for the guards to end their conversation (#2). Save your game once again.

One of the guards will be moving towards your table. You will have to avoid him from the right side. This will allow you to follow his colleague (#1). This guard will be heading to a bar that's located on your right. Once he has stopped, start moving forward (#2). You should speed up a little. Hide by a large counter. You should be crouching near a dark passageway. SAVE your game here, however make sure that none of the enemy soldiers is heading this way.

You will have to head on to the dark corridor (#1). You won't encounter any enemies here, however you shouldn't be making too much noise. Also, make sure that you're standing close to the left wall. Otherwise you would have been spotted. You will have to wait here for a few seconds (#2). Some of the guards are patrolling this area, so you won't be able to make any moves just yet.

Make sure that you don't expose yourself too much. The guards will be heading this way. If you're standing in the shadows, they shouldn't see you (#1). Wait for them to reach the main bar area. Head to the unprotected corridor. You will have to press a button (#2). This will allow you to use the elevator. Enter it. That's where the game will begin loading a new map.
