/Subway Transient (spec.)(3.9)/
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
*Things aren't looking well. A bomb has been planted in the subway, where
many daily commuters stroll through. The Captain doesn't want to even think
about the idea of such an event occurring. Defuse the bomb before it's too
late.*
- Run down to where the blue point is on your map, and press Y to enter the
Subway. Suddenly an explosion will rock the area. Whoever planted the bomb did
minimal damage, but they can still take down the entire transportation system
if they reach the control room. You have to get to the control room before the
'terrorists' do. Look near the blown pillars on the subway level. You'll find
several Assault Rifles. Pick them up, equip it, then shoot away the Control
Room door (marked by the blue point). After entering the room, your Captain
says you're surrounded by several red dots. You'll have to shoot your way out
of this one. Dear God! There will be about 25 gangsters in total; most of whom
are fairly weak. Simply use your Assault Rifle and kill the initial wave that
run for the Control Room door. More will rush down from the steps, but are
minimally armed. Drugs aren't even necessary to survive. Just make use of the
crouching ability to get more precise aiming. Your mission is complete when all
red dots are killed.
===================================ASIA=====================================

/Oh Marcus, where are you? (3.10)/
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
*This mission starts off fairly interesting. After Marcus and Jack have a
quick chit-chat, especially how Marcus says he doesn't trust Jack, you'll
arrive in Kowloon, China. Right after you get off the ferry boat, Detective
Lau greets Marcus and takes him away. Jack waits by, and suddenly, some vans
surround your position. One of the thugs says welcome to China, bitch.*
- Well for starters, you won't have any of your weapons from before. You'll
still have anything in your inventory, such as drugs, but weapons are out of
the question. Two thugs will rush right at the beginning. Chinese enemies are
much tougher than US-based suspects, as Chinamen can throw you within grapples,
and also have more athletic moves. Do a kick kick, punch combo on one of them,
or use an uppercut/leg sweep move to knock them down. Try to get them to
minimal health, or kill them. Once their life bars are only about 10% of they
were, arresting them is the easiest way to disable your opponents. About three
more waves of Chinamen will come. Disarm the one equipped with your Beretta,
and then use it against him. Four total Assault Rifle snipers will spawn on the
roof as well, so look up if you're getting shot from an unknown location.
Finish off the remaining thugs, and the 'real' Detective Lau will arrive on the
scene.
- Apparently, you handed Marcus over to the thugs, as they were impersonating
the real police officers! Anyhow, the Chinese Captain tells you to go seek out
the suspects marked red on your radar to find out Marcus Hill's location. Go to
the rightmost suspect first. For the most part, use the same tactics from
before. Only grapple a Chinaman once his life bar is at the lowest possible,
otherwise he'll flip you. Some of the suspects are quicker than usual (look
like Jet Li's). Make use of the block move via the R trigger. Go for the second
suspect, and repeat the same strategy. I found it best to actually shoot a shot
into the victim to get them to run (rather than be so aggressive). He'll reveal
that Marcus is somewhere at the docks. Head for the final suspect. Repeat the
same strategy, and he'll note that it's in one of the big warehouses by the
docks.
- Detective Lau heard the entire conversation and wants to do a joint assault
on their compound. Go to the blue marked point. Talk to Lau.
*Lau will go in after your command, but you must not shoot anyone who is not
equipped with a weapon. Deadly force is your last option.*
- This is primarily a stealth mission. If you shoot any of the guards (and
don't instant kill), or let them sound an alarm, Marcus will be killed. Climb
the fence. Using your silenced pistol automatically causes the alarm to go off
(unless you're precise). Don't shoot any weapons. Run straight ahead to the end
of the alley, and wait for the guard around the corner to the left to walk the
other way. Run past the van, and walk off the ledge slowly. You should fall and
grab a hold of the dock ledge. Swiggle yourself left, and wait for the guard to
turn his back. Now, get up, go across to the wooden dock to take a quick
breather. Now's the perfect time to use your silenced pistol. Crouch yourself,
enter aim mode, and pick off the guard. Try to pick off the other one around
the corner. Crawl into the opened garage door, past the boxes, and snipe the
last two guards watching over Marcus. Run up to Marcus, and free him by
pressing Y.
- The last portion of this mission is simple. Protect Marcus's life bar (in the
very top portion of the screen), while engaging the rest of the baddies. For
the most part, you'll have to run back out the same door, but cut a right this
time. Lau will make his assault on the compound as well, so make use of the NPC
assisters near the sidelines. Most of the remaining Triad members are hiding
behind various crates, barrels, and/or spawn from various corners. After the 15
remaining enemies are dead, your mission is complete.
_______________________
/Who loves Lucy? (3.11)/
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
*Detective Lau gives you a quick briefing of who could be the overseer of
Liquid Soul operations in China. Apparently, Lucy Chen, a notorious woman
dealer has managed to deal out assassinations on all Triad bosses opposing
her. She most likely has dealings with this hideous drug. Marcus says he'll
take care of it. Lau wants you to use the Shotgun MIC to discover what she's
up to.*
- Head to the nearby police yard for the Shotgun MIC. Lau wants you to head to
a hotel opposite of her raving nightclub where you should be able to spy on her
conversations. Talk to the doorman out front. Flash your badge, then he'll take
you around back through a gated entrance. Climb the ladder to the top. Chen has
arrived on the roof of her club. For now, go left, and jump up to the railing.
Shimmy across the pit, then drop down, and run around the corner. Grab this
drug package. It's best to get it now, rather than forget. Shimmy back across,
and then jump across the small fence, and move to the blue marked spot. Pull
out your Shotgun MIC, and zoom it on Chen till the volume meter starts hitting
the red peaks. Unfortunately, interference from an air conditioner will be
causing problems in hearing Chen. Lau has dropped off a silenced sniper rifle
by the ladder you climbed up from before.
- Get on the ladder and slide down. Run over to the marked spot to pick up the
Sniper Rifle. You'll be ambushed by 2-3 Gangsters with bats. Sprint away from
them. Climb back up the ladder, back to the spot, and look to the upper left of
Chen's position. You should see a dual-silver gray unit. Snipe the section with
the red/green button. Once the A/C is down, pull out your Shotgun MIC, and keep
it focused on Chen in maximal position. You'll end up overhearing her
conversation about how an American buyer is arriving with 1 million dollars in
cash to purchase some Liquid Soul. She wants him killed though. After hearing
the conversation, Lau says he is having problems getting the surveillance van
started. They must get this evidence back to the headquarters for the proper
authentification to proceed with operations. Suddenly, the van is ambushed by
Triad members. Pull out the Silenced Sniper Rifle you were just given, and look
down on the street, slightly to the right. Start sniping the guards in the
heads. There are about 6 total. If you run out of sniper ammo, simply switch to
your revolver, and crouch-aim.
- Lau still needs backup getting to the police HQ in one piece. He wants you to
hop aboard. Slide down the ladder, and sprint to the van's location. Remember
to shoot off the two triad melee gangsters from before. Now, press Y to climb
onto the van. Use either the Heavy Machine Gun, or Assault Rifle, and start
popping off the Triad members in the distance. At one point, the van will stop.
Simply, rail shoot off the gangsters on the roofs, sidewalks, and what not. Use
the red dots on your radar as it's the easiest method of elimination. You'll
eventually make it to a tunnel. Chen secretly messages you and says to bring
the evidence. She'll bribe you with $20,000 instead. You actually have an
interactive choice of accepting or denying the bribe. I chose to deny it. After
exiting the tunnel, keep your primary focus on looking straight ahead but VERY
high in the sky. There's a grenade launching Triad at the very top who can
instant kill you if he makes a successful hit – take him out. Do the same for
the surrounding Triads, and finish off the other ones after the van stops.
Chen will make one more notorious bribe, but only half of what it was
($10,000). She says if you don't accept, you'll have every Triad after you.
- Again, reject the offer. You'll have a few more baddies to kill. Then, Lau
informs you that the van has stalled for good. You have to take the evidence
back to HQ on foot. Dear God. Run up the street towards the marked point.
You're probably low on ammo, so pull out a Skorpion. Hit the blue point.
Suddenly, two unmarked vans will pop out on the street, with about 12 Triad
members. They give you one last chance to hand it over. Marcus tells them to
suck a chalupa. All hell breaks loose. The first thing I did was retreat back
behind one of the road railings. It should provide shelter from enemy bullets.
Pick off a few of the members who charge at you. Counter-charge, picking up
some of the ammo while gunning them down with the Heavy Machine Gun. You can
blow up the vans in the background for some added emotional effects. Finish off
the remaining hostiles, enter the police yard, and talk to Lau. He'll be
gloriously in love with you for gathering the only evidence which can break
Chen's dealings.
________________________________
/Sizzling Hostages (spec.)(3.12)/
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
*The scenario is not looking well. Some thugs tried to rob a downtown
restaurant but the robbery attempt was foiled. In a desperate attempt, they
snatched several hostages, and are barricaded inside. The Chinese SWAT team
is ready to move in, but they're risking the lives of the hostages. Lau
wants you to snatch a sniper rifle, and head to a nearby roof.*
- Start off by sprinting towards the blue dot. It should take about 20 seconds
off of your 90 second clock. Grab the Auto-Sniper Rifle. Now, run to the next
blue marked point, climb the ladder, then run across the roof crosspath. Run
along the ledge, and hop onto the wooden box. Jump up each ledge, and this two
more times. Once above, run across, and drop down to the blue marked point.
Now, pull out your Sniper Rifle. You should see three thugs holding three
hostages. Snipe off the thug farthest back. Repeat the same for the front two
thugs. Be fairly quick, as you will only have five seconds to gun them down.
Once they're down, a ton of new thugs will arrive on scene. Run towards the
back of your current position. Look at the blue point on the passenger
overpass. Drop down to there, pick up the health, and pull out your Pistol. Run
down the stairs to ground level, and Beretta down the gangsters who try to kill
the officers. Don't try standing on the ledge and sniping. It simply is
ineffective. The mission will be complete after all hostiles are killed.
_________________________
/Dangerous Imports (3.13)/
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
*Remember the evidence you so difficultly tried to gather from before? Well,
it's missing from the Police HQ. Lau accuses Marcus of stealing it, or
accepting a bribe. Jack is pissed off, and says that the officers inside
Lau's division are responsible for being corrupt. Nonetheless, Lau wants you
to escort the million dollar buyer from the customs dock, back to Police HQ
for questioning.*
- Head towards the blue marked point. Once there, flash your badge to the
marked cop. Talk to the dealer inside. It ends up that the dealer only has
$10,000 and was bluffing to Chen's men. Oh, he's a dead man. Lau wants you to
hurry as Chen's men are onto his tracks. Run towards the blue marked point.
Right off the bat, 4 Triads will pop out of a van and gun down the Customs
guard. Shoot them to the right, and proceed left up the street. Two vans will
do a streaking ambush. Try to blow them up before hand, or move back, and shoot
the guards off individually. The Assault Rifle works best for these parts. Now,
head left down the hilly pathway. Two snipers are going to be on the warehouse
roof about 300 yards away. You can pull out your sniper, or manually pick them
off in aim mode. Continue ahead around the corner. Guide the hippy to the
marked point.
- The cops say they will handle it from here, but you'll be ambushed by four
series of (10) Triads each. The toughest part is having enough ammo to gun them
down. Thus, use Marijuana for extra guidance to slow things down. It's very
necessary, otherwise your life bar will probably lower. Your best bet is to
give Crack a try as well. Avoid standing next to the Police Car. Each time a
new series of gangsters arrive, an RPG will pound the area near the car. I
found it best to stand right where the hippie crouches. After the four waves
are knocked off, the hippie will make a break for it, in fear that you cannot
protect him. Sprint after him. He'll actually toss some of the money in his
backpack directly behind his path. Pick it up for some free cash. Eventually,
he'll start to puke in the Zen Gardens. Tackle him, and go for the arrest.
Suddenly, Lau reports that several more gangsters are closing in on the
Gardens. This cannot be good. This time you're going to have to act like a
bodyguard, since the buyer's life is very low. Stand directly in front of him,
and equip your Assault Rifle. Simply nail off the remaining twenty gangsters.
They'll approach from the leftwalkway, the right street, and in front. Use
burst firing with the AR to get quick and easy kills. The mission is complete
once all Triad members are dead.
_____________________________
/Naked Dishonor (spec.)(3.14)/
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
*Haha. Apparently, a naked man has been standing near a mobile phone ad. Lau
is greatly dishonored by the sight. Remove it at once!*
- Haha, certainly one of the more 'fun' missions in the game. Right off the
bat, run north up the main road. Head towards the '7-LOT' building, then turn
around, and look slightly to your right. You should see a cellphone bluish neon
sign. On it, you'll see a blue arrow marking a naked man breakdancing on it.
Approach the sign, and the naked man will pull out a gun! Don't shoot him; he
must be arrested. The easiest way to take him down is to get a Super Bust meter
charged, however, it's difficult, because he throws off of your grapples, and
even avoids your leg sweeps. Your best bet is to use the Uppercut move left
click thumbstick + X to take him down. Once he's down, get on top, and pummel
him a bit. Once the meter is charged, repeat, and do a super bust. Mission
should be complete. You'll also get see a flailing ding-a-ling; oh yuck!
______________________
/Crotch Rockets (3.15)/
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
*Some news has been buzzing around the city. The Black Tigers are one of the
most feared motorcycle gangs in all of Asia, and they're under Chen's
payroll. They've been spotted roaming around the city. A cellphone message
has also been intercepted by Lau's men, and it has been between one of
Chen's couriers to the gang's leader. The Black Tigers have been spotted
handing off a certain package from place-to-place. Lau wants you to disable
this gang, and find out what they're moving around, before Chen can get a
hand on it.*
- Run to the police yard and grab the Stinger Spike Strip. Now, you'll only
have 40 seconds to make it to the blue point. Sprint over to the point. You'll
face two Triad members on roofs with assault rifles, but I just ignored them.
Once at the point, press Y to deploy the Stinger Strip. The Black Tiger should
run right into it, and fall off. Search his corpse, and Jack says that the
package was empty – it was a decoy! Lau says another courier has been spotted,
but it's in rush hour traffic. Anyhow, run to the next point. You'll only have
40 seconds. However, the chase runs short. One of Chen's worthy rivals offers
you a bribe to bring the samples of Liquid Soul to him, in exchange for
$25,000. You'll receive another $5,000 per head of each courier you kill. Deny
the offer. Run down the street, but go about halfway, and look to your left.
You should see an underpass bridge that cuts under the road. Jump down here,
and run towards traffic (jumping over cars that rush by). The point should be
along the left. Deploy the trap, and the rider will be disabled. Search the
corpse, and you'll realize it's another decoy.
- Run to the next point, by exiting the tunnel. Suddenly, several cars will
meet up with Triads and police officers going at it. Engage some of the Triads,
and run towards the objective. Once there, walk up to each bike, and press Y to
sabotage them. Quickly run to cover so you're not spotted. If you are, simply
gun down both of them, and check their corpses. More decoys as usual. Lau is
sorry for misguiding you, but they believe they have the real package. Follow
the last point on your map. You'll only have 25 seconds, so run like a fart in
the wind! Set the trap on the point. However, the biker will avoid the spike
strip. You'll automatically enter aim mode, so quickly shoot the biker off, or
blow up his bike. Once he's down, you can either kill him (or bust him as I
did). Make sure to search his corpse, and you actually got Chen's next shipment
of Liquid Soul! Lau wants you to deposit it at the Police HQ.
- You'll receive another message from that rival goon of Chen's. He's offering
you $50,000 for the Liquid Soul, and says that if you don't hand it over, then
some of the Kowloon detectives will for much less. Hah, reject the offer. Run
towards the Police HQ. Suddenly, two ambushes will occur from the right. Use
the Machine Pistol to make quick work of the goons. Give the evidence to the
Police, and Lau will inform you that the Liquid Soul shipment had a value of
over $5,000,000! That foolish rival only offered $50,000. Damn eBay sellers.
________________________________
/Eye of the Tigers (spec.)(3.16)/
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
*One of Lau's officers has important information on the Black Tigers, and is
waiting out near the Police HQ. Go meet him.*
- Right when you get near the police car, it gets blown to pieces by a Black
Tiger rider. Marcus drives up with the surveillance van from before, and offers
assistance in taking down these punks. Climb aboard, and start gunning away.
For the most part, you'll only have to kill about 3-4 of the riders, and not
all of them. I used the sniper rifle, and tried to aim for the motorcycle to
blow it up. Many of the other rifles have some inaccuracies, and very little
aiming abilities. Your pistol also works, but it's hard to keep steady. Try to
simply reach the minimum. Marcus will eventually pull over, and the mission
should be complete, despite letting some of them escape.
__________________
/Fire burns (3.17)/
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
*Marcus has been informed that one of Chen's rival gangs, the Pyros, are
making a hit on one of her money laundering joints tonight. Marcus wants you
to arrive at the scene, help protect Chen's joint, and in exchange, you
might get an inside connection with her. Jack wonders why they're called the
Pyros, and well, they got a 'thang' for fire.*
- Sprint to the marked point on your map. The joint will start to get nailed by
the Pyros. Kill the surrounding guards that popped out of the van with an
automatic weapon, then enter inside the compound. Some of the stuff will be on
fire. Avoid contact with the flamethrowers, and simply gun them down. Pick up
some of the Flamethrowers as well for future missions. It should fade out.
Marcus receives word from Jack that he's in, and looking mighty fine. Jack says
he was working for one of his guys on the East Coast, who's looking for a
drugs-to-weapons trade. Chen has bought into it. Marcus is going to try and
take surveillance pictures between the deal, while Jack stays on the inside.
With Marcus, head towards the blue marked point. Flash your badge, and grab the
Camera.
- Now, head back to the other point. You'll have to go around back, to where an
elevated walkway is. Climb this ladder. Now, look towards the red railings to
your right. Leap to this ladder, climb it up top, then move to the blue marked
point. Once there, Jack says that whenever he yells Cumquat, he wants Marcus to
move in and save him. In the meantime, Jack is going to get the attention of
each Triad Gangster, so that they look directly at him. Marcus is suppose to
take snapshots whenever the Triad looks at Jack.
- For starters, Jack is on the upper right of the zoomed-in screen. Locate him
with the blue arrow over his head. He should get the attention of about 5-6
Triad Members. Make sure you're zoomed in so it's red, and take the picture
when they turn their heads based on Jack's dialogue. Now, once all photos are
taken, your NARC leader accidentally says something over Jack's PDA. His cover
is blown. Switch to the Assault Rifle, and gun down the patrons below. Hop down
each roof ledge (you might lose some health), and move around the corner to
where Jack is. Save him this time. You'll have another problem. You're
barricaded in this fishy market, while hundreds of Triads are waiting for you.
The concept is simple. Either Marcus or Jack must cover each other, by simply
gunning down the opposing enemies while the other partner runs to cover. This
way, you can gradually move your way out of the fortress without running into
too much trouble. There are about 4-5 cover points you'll have to move Jack to.
Each time, look on your map for the blue point. Press Y to cover Marcus when
you're in position and are ready to fire away. He'll tell you to 'Go, Go, Go!'
when he's ready as well. Do this until you reach the ground level of the
market, then simply gun your way out by killing all hostiles. Head up the
stairs to the blue point.
- Jack says he planted a tracker on the briefcase that was at the previous
meeting before all hell broke loose. However, it's not a traditional radar
tracker. Instead, it pulses based on how close you are. Simply watch your radar
screen, and it should pulse. When it does, a small arc portion of the
circumference on your radar will blink red. Look where it blinks, and head that
direction. Eventually, you'll be leader to the upper right, at a place called
the Green Dragon Trains. A blue marked point should appear on your radar. In
order to get up there, look to the left of the front entrance to the train
store. There should be a ladder; climb it. Now, turn around, and sprint leap to
this roof ledge. Hop across each ledge, and nail out the 6 guards on the upper
area. Also take out the two below, drop down, run up the stairs, and to the
other roof where you gunned down the Triad members. Kill the three guards below
by the yellow crates and drug stashes. Slide down the ladder, then slide down
the next ladder to the right. The briefcase should be on the lowest dock
available. Snatch it, then two more Triad members will pop up above. Climb the
ladder, pop up, and disable the guard. He has a flamethrower. Take out the
other one above, then use the Flamethrower to toast the crates and drug
stashes. Now that this is destroyed, your mission is complete.
____________________________________
/Explosive Engagements (spec.)(3.18)/
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
*A local extremist group is threatening to detonate a bomb on a
highly-populated target unless one of their leaders is released from prison.
Lau has managed to identify the four leaders that are in constant contact
with each other. They have stated that if any of them are even touched, the
bomb will be detonated. This is where Marcus comes in. You must snatch a
Sniper Rifle, then find a good sniper spot, and take out all opponents in a
matter of seconds.*
- Run towards the red in-building plaza, then leap off the ledge to the nearby
ladder. Jump to the second ladder, and this should take you to the marked
point. Now, do a sprint jump across to the diagonal roof, and grasp a hold of
the ledge. Climb up, and grab the Auto Sniper Rifle. Lau says to hurry before
they detonate the bomb. Now, look to the right of this roof, and you should see
a small, but small dropoff ledge below. Drop down to it, continue ahead, then
go left, and hobble across the four roof walkways. Head around the corner.
Sprint jump to the red marked roof.
- Make sure that Marcus is positioned near the bottom half, and simply turns
around to hit the second target. Move to the upper left tip of the roof to hit
the other two targets, which are in more exposed positions. On a side note,
after engaging the first leader, you'll have 30 seconds to kill the rest. Once
they're dead, Marcus suddenly reports that kamikaze bombers are headed for
Police HQ! You'll now take control of Jack. Simply gun down the 5 Kamikaze
Bombers straight ahead of you. They don't have weapons, but will explode if
within proximity. Straight and simple.
________________
/The Rave (3.19)/
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
*Finally, your woman commander has arrived in Asia. She has received word
about who is actually manufacturing the Liquid Soul, a man named Mr. Big,
operating under a company called KRAK. How ironic. Anyhow, she wants you to
take down one of their major production facilities, which is also being run
via slave labor inside a Rave party joint.*
- For starters, she wants Marcus to get a camera from one of Lau's men near a
rendevous point. Head towards the blue marked point. Talk to the officer, and
he'll give you the camera. You'll also be told to jump onto some dumpsters
around back, for access to the roof. Immediately turn around, and go back the
way you came. Right when it flashes 'Lo San District', look to your left for an
open gate. Inside you'll find some green dumpsters stacked on a dirt pile. Jump
onto them. Now, jump to the wall railing, shimmy across, and climb up. Run to
the other side, and leap up to the green pipe. Shimmy left. Get on the small
platform, and leap to the other side. Look left for a suspending ladder. Jump
to it, and climb to the roof. Drop to the small balcony, then crouch walk
across the pipe railings to the marked point.
- Once there, you'll have to take pictures of one of the kidnappings. Look in
the lower right for a doorway to open up, with a yellow-robed woman, and a
guard with a gun. Take red-reticle photos of the guard, the hostage, and some
other clubbers until Marcus says you have enough evidence. Now, your lady boss
wants you to get the evidence to the police officer from before. Simply walk
off the ledge, grab a hold, then drop down to minimize your fall damage. Talk
to the cop to give him the evidence. He says he'll return the evidence to HQ
for a warrant. Meanwhile, your boss wants you to infiltrate the Rave
headquarters. If you look on your radar, you should see a blue dot in the
distance. Run up to the kid equipped with a purple dancing shirt, and flash
your badge. Arrest him, then you'll notice that you've acquired a Ticket. Now,
approach the Rave Gate entrance, and talk to the gatekeeper. He should let you
in because you have the ticket. Once inside, walk up to the 2 guards, and talk
to them for a bit. You'll tell them to freeze! Suddenly, you'll be surrounded
by about 6 Factory Guards. Simply pull out a gun, and pick them off. Check the
ground for Small Health and some ammo. Near that balcony from before will be
some Assault Rifle snipers. Start killing them, and you'll eventually get some
backup - a lone officer who is gunned down.
- Now, go check the cop's body for a Smoke Grenade Launcher. A blue dot should
appear on your radar. Look up in the air, right abve the black doorway to the
Rave. You'll see a marked vent. Launch a smoke grenade inside the hole via the
smoke grenade launcher. Now, the suspects will start to flurry through the
doorway. The next part is simple, gun down any hostiles with weapons in hand.
DO NOT shoot the innocent kidnapees who walk out unarmed. They should stack
themselves on the left. After about four waves, your boss tells you she wants
the hostages escorted to Police HQ for questioning.
- Walk up to the hostages, and press Y to escort them. Open the gate, and to
your right will be 3 Triad Members. Take them out. Now, move ahead to the main
street. Some Triad Vans should have the streets blockaded. Shoot the vans for
some much-needed explosions, and pick off the snipers in the distance using the
Assault Rifle. The Assault Rifle is VERY effective during this part. Continue
ahead up onto the main street (not the Underpass), and again, two more vans
will rush from the left. Use the same tactics, and watch for the right balcony
snipers. Head to the Police HQ to finish the mission off with a bang.
____________________________
/More Courier Chasing (3.20)/
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
*Lau has received more information regarding yet another transport courier.
He is positive that Lucy Chen is involved. He has marked the last known
location on your PDA.*
- This mission is a small pain in the butt. Run to the blue marked point. The
Black Tiger biker should pass by. Sprint after him, firing occasional shots
with your Pistol to keep him interested. He should eventually end up inside a
small fishmarket. You'll be fairly close to the docks. Round the corner of the
warehouse, and press Y to open the door. Once inside, you'll discover that both
Lucy Chen and the Enforcer are present. The problem is, you don't have a
Shotgun MIC, so you'll have to record their conversation with your PDA. To do
so, you must stay within 6 feet of them – holy crap! Right off the bat, crouch
behind them, and stay behind the wall.
- Wait for the guard on the right to turn right, then take cover behind the
small dumpster here (the Enforcer will turn around), so you don't want to be
seen. When the Enforcer starts walking toward the dumpster, go back out the
route you came in, but go to the next hall to the left, and use this to listen
in. The second guard should have passed here by now. Stay at this spot, even
when the two new guards appear. Both Chen and the Enforcer should pass by. Now
comes the tricky part. Stay inside, and both of them should cut to the left
(where two parallel guards move pass them as well). Run to your left, moving
across this alley in parallel movement with them. Take shelter against the far
pillar, where the green walls are and tall bright lights near the high ceiling.
Follow them directly behind, and then take shelter next to the door that just
made a loud sound (where a lone guard entered).
- Eventually, we'll see Chen making a small threat towards Mr. Big. Of course,
Mr. Big is actually a woman which is even more shocking. She shoots Chen in the
back, and takes the briefcase. However, you're spotted. This next part is
somewhat easy. Nine Black Tiger Bikers will zoom in/out from the various doors
surrounding the room. I found it best to use Marijuana to slow things down,
especially with the Assault Rifle to put a quick end to the riders. Liquid Soul
also works, but can be risky if you cannot bail out of addiction. Simply finish
off the 9 cycles and your mission is complete, for Jack that is.
- Now it's Marcus's turn. Marcus has spotted the Enforcer leaving the compound,
and is on her trail. Stay fairly close, but don't let her become engaged with a
question mark, otherwise she becomes suspicious. You'll see her talk to a
pink-suited person. Now, jump down from the stairwell to the below tunnel AFTER
she passes through. You cannot let the guard she talked to see you. An
alternate route can be performed before heading down the stairs, near the
building, you can get behind the guard, and knock him out, but it's more risky.
She'll talk to a second guard inside the tunnel. Once she passes by him, and is
about five feet apart, snipe the guard in the head with the Silenced Sniper
Rifle. Now, sprint up a bit, then watch her enter the temple. Press Y to enter
the temple, but you must give away all of your weapons before proceeding in.
- Head all the way to the top temple room. Along the way, you'll hear various
phrases and lots of calming motions. Once inside the main room, we discover
that the head monk was in charge of the drug operations, although the Enforcer
was his daughter (whom he trained). Nonetheless, he orders his men to kill you.
This first part is easy, as many of the monks are weak and feeble. Simply use
kicks, punches, and grapple throws to finish em' off. Crack does amazing for
this part, as it gives you instant kills via your melee kick. Once the 20 monks
are dead, the head monk will come at you with a sword. I just used Liquid Soul
to easily kill him with one kick. If you get addicted, use Protazone, or fight
off the addiction. Marcus ends up opening the briefcase to reveal that Liquid
Soul was actually being manufactured from human endorphins inside the body. The
Ravers from the nightclub were actually the source of LS, not kidnapees.
- Unfortunately, your discovery is ruined by a monk with a gun. Start off by
disarming this monk, using his gun against him. The next part is very
repetitive. You'll face about a total of 40 monks spread out throughout the
exit of the level. Most of them are armed with Machine Pistols, a few with
Assault Rifles, or 9MMs. Simply check the bodies for small health pickups, more
ammo, and gun your way out. Press Y to exit the temple grounds.

*The secret stashes hidden all over the city have revealed the location of a
secret drug lab that Lau has been looking for. Arrest all of the workers,
and prevent the equipment from being able to work. As usual, return all
evidence to the box.*
- For starters, the entrance to the facility is right where package #25 is.
Turn around, and you'll see a small enclosed doorway now exposed with a blue
circle. Press Y to enter. Once inside, go down the stairwell slowly with a
decent weapon. I chose to use the Machine Pistol, simply because the game
automatically gives you infinite ammo with it. Start off by going down to the
first floor, and flashing your badge. This will aware the employees that a drug
bust is occurring. Because of this, they won't run away. Now, you'll have to
deal with a careful mix of woman guards, men assassins, and an ambush from
behind. Intertwined with some of the women workers on the first floor are Uzi
Guards in between. Gun them out, then head to the bottom floor, and engage the
hostiles behind the computers, tables, and desks with the Assault Rifle. Clear
out the bottom floor, then check behind yourself for about 5-6 Guards from the
stairwell. Once the hostiles are complete, you should see 'objective complete'.
Now, for the evidence. The very bottom floor has a stack of cash on a table
which must be collected. Shoot it as well. I shot up most of the cocaigne and
remaining drugs. Make sure to arrest ALL techies on the top floor, and that
none of them are killed via hostile fire. Finally, blow up the rest of the
equipment (work your way from the bottom up) until the objective is complete.
Once your mission is finished, exit via the stairwell.

/Boss Island (3.22)/
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
*Your woman boss of the NARC organization actually turns out to be a real
snitch. She's warned you that you won't be making the final assault on Mr.
Big's island, simply because you aren't well trained enough. She says her
men are more competent, and will make the final assault. Neither Marcus or
Jack agree, and plan to put the nail in the hammer with some incriminating
evidence against Mr. Big.*
- Right off the bat, Jack says he's going to check out the island's defenses,
and mentions that they'll need some photographic evidence to really put Mr. Big
away for good. Move to the blue marked point. Jack will disable the power. Now,
move ahead into the next room, and take out the guard via melee moves. Once the
guard is down, look to the lower left portion of this room for a small ledge.
Jump up to it, then diagonal sprint jump to the tripwire switch. Press Y to
disable the tripwires. Now, wait for the new patrol to walk down here, and
simply engage him. No matter what, he'll usually sound this alarm off. Take the
Gatling Gun off of his body, and gun down the three guards who appear in front
of you. Two will also hit you from behind, with two on an upper ledge. Once
they're all dead, check the 3 you killed that were in front of you. Search the
corpse of one of them for the alarm key card. Walk up to the red control panel,
and disable it by pressing Y.
- Now, Marcus says he's going to snipe off some of the guards to help Jack get
the photographic evidence. Look along the left side of the room for some
ledges. Hop up each of them, then climb the ladder, and grab the Auto Sniper
Rifle on the top platform. Jack suggests sniping off the guards while the loud
crane is moving. This part is actually very complex, because if you don't
realize how to identify where the guards are, then you'll never get past it.
For starters, it's way too dark to see the guards in the distance. Instead,
switch to the Assault Rifle (you received from some of the bodies), and it will
auto-target the enemies for you in the distance! Now, keep the crosshair where
the person was identified, switch to the Auto Sniper, and then zoom in, and
pick them off while the crane is moving. There's about 6-7 guards in total,
with a pair of them together (who must be taken out in reasonable time). Simply
use the AR to identify, and the sniper to finish. Once they're all down, it
switches to Jack's part of the mission, where he must photograph the evidence.
- Run to where Marcus boosted up to the ladder, but instead, go right after
hopping up the ledges. You'll notice that some of the beams guarding the upper
area have disappeared. Head on through, and do two sprint jumps to leap across
each of the chasms. Get close to the marked point, and Marcus will tell you to
get onto those platforms where the doors are. Look straight ahead, hop onto the
gray beam, then over to the red beam (at the corner where the beams meet). Do a
short sprint jump to the opened fence on the door ledge. Jack says he can see
heaven from up here. You'll only be able to take three pictures, so zoom in
until the reticle turns red, then snap a shot. Each target is marked with blue
arrows. When you start to take fire, switch to your Assault Rifle, and gun down
the guards on the balcony to your left. Marcus will lay down sniper cover for
the time being. After being told to move to a better position, jump back to the
red beam, move up a bit, then jump to the second balcony to the left. Do a
sprint jump as usual. Once on the balcony, you'll have about 5-6 pictures to
take. Then, climb the ladder, and disable the tripwires via the marked switch.
- Apparently, the crane has stopped moving, preventing Jack from escaping with
the photos. Marcus says he'll try to find the controls on the ground floor to
start the crane up again. Slide down the ladder, and pull out the Assault
Rifle. Gun down the three guards in the canyon tunnel, but don't step on the
red dotted items on the floor. These are land mines, and will explode upon
infantry pressure. Avoid them, while gunning down any exposed guards. You'll
find a Grenade Launcher in the first inlet to the left. Make it to the end of
the hall. Don't move all the way. There's an automatic machine gun drone. Use
the Grenade Launcher, and launch a shot into it. This should cause it to
explode. Move down the next hall, and you'll find it immediately on the left.
Repeat the same procedure. Run to the end, and look into the ground floor
complex to your right. Grenade launch the drone against the right wall, then
use the Gatling Gun to mow down the 20+ guards inside the room. Move around via
the left wall till you circle around to a ladder. Using Liquid Soul helps
conserve your life.
- Climb the ladder, and move to the control panel. You'll find a Large Health
nearby. Hit the switch on the left to cause the crane to move a bit. Six guards
should pop down from the door below on ground level. Gatling gun them down.
Repeat this process two more times, for the middle and third switch. Each time,
Jack will progressively move out of the complex, but you'll also have to face a
series of guards below. After Jack makes it out, Marcus says he's going to
blast his way out. Wait for the enemies to get into the ground floor near the
switches, then press the crane switch to drop the load on them. It won't do
much damage, but it proves to be a nice barrier. Now, move down, and gun down
the guards. There are about 20 in total, with 10 in the other room. Move up to
the door console, and press Y to hack it. Once it opens, you'll have plenty of
more guards to kill. Stay in your current room; don't move in yet. Once the
initial guards are down, move in, but stay hidden behind some boxes. If you
look to your left, there's actually a drone turret behind the bursting steam.
Take it out with your Grenade Launcher or keep firing with the Gatling Gun till
it blows up. Once it's down, move to the marked point, and close the vent. This
will stop the steam from pouring over. Move through to where the previous steam
was flying across, but be careful. There's another drone past the second blast
of steam. Use your Auto Sniper Rifle to zoom through the steam and get an
'idea' as to where the second drone gun is. Once you do, pull out your Gatling
Gun, and fire in the vicinity till it blows up. If you need some health, boost
onto the garbage/power generators to get to the top railing, then go to the
medicine cabinets and grab the extra health. Turn off the next two steam vents.
- Now, boost yourself back up to the upper railing via a high box and the
broken railing. Move ahead as far possible, until you see a closed gate on the
ground floor. Walk slowly and don't crouch. There's a drone turret in front of
the blue marked position in the distance. Try to get an angle and take it out.
It's fairly unseen, and often causes players to wonder how they died. Once it's
down, run to the left, drop down, and run to the circle. Now that you have
control of Jack, pull out your Assault Rifle and gun down the 5 guards that
appear. Look to your right for a red beam. Leap to it, then walk off the ledge,
and drop down to the below gray stilt holder. Do a sprint leap to the ledge
where the 5 dead guards are, then touch the blue marked point. There are some
distraction guards by where the crane dropped the load from before, but they
can be ignored.
*Jack discovers a hidden message on one of the guards showing that NARC was
accepting bribes from the KRAK organization. Suddenly, the woman boss
arrives on the scene to tell Jack to calm down. Jack says he quits, and that
all of it is bullcrap. Marcus is confused, and doesn't know what's going on.
Suddenly, the NARC boss guns down Jack. Marcus is shocked at her lack of
hesistation. Then, we're brought to a large chamber where we see Mr. Big.
Unfortunately, the caped woman from before was actually Mr. Big's Enforcer,
aka your NARC Boss. Both NARC and KRAK have been in on it since the
beginning all along. By using NARC, KRAK was able to have their drug
competition eliminated. Marcus is infuriated!*
- Unfortunately, you cannot get to Mr. Big, who is resting on his chair.
Instead, engage the woman traitor boss via melee combat. She's very easy. Use
kicks and punches to bring her down, then get on top of her, and use beatdowns.
Avoid grapples. Once she's knocked out, you'll now have to fight Mr. Big with
Jack. Big will retreat into a mechanical robot armed with dual grenade
launchers, a centered rocket launcher, and twin gatling guns. The plan is
simple. There are about 4-5 sets of boxes surrounding the room at various
inlets. For now, take cover behind them, but move yourself slightly back. By
doing this, you can enter Aim Mode and actually hit the weak spot on the robot
(the yellow colored cockpit). Now, while crouching behind the box, keep firing
at the cockpit. Eventually, Mr. Big will stop shooting his gatling guns. When
he does, quickly put your gun away, and avoid what he launches. He always
charges a red circle in the center of the machine before firing a direct
rocket, so use this as a warning sign. Sometimes he will do a spiral attack
where he fires the gatling guns and grenades, run in a circle with him. The
idea is to get Mr. Big to launch the rockets into the wooden boxes so they
reveal the hidden cargo inside. You'll find Assault Rifles, Gatling Guns,
Rocket Launchers, or Large Health. Rotate from each of the inlet stations, and
try to take cover behind the central boxes. Keep bringing his health down, and
firing the rockets when he stops to aim at you with the rockets. Eventually,
his shield will go down, and his health bar should reach zero. Whatever you do,
don't feel afraid to put your gun away. This makes you more evasive in certain
situations.
*Marcus arrives to see Mr. Big blown out of his machine. He says the moment
is over, and plants a bullet into his head. So much for a beautiful
ending.*
- The credits to the game will now be shown. Afterwards, the game enters the
main menu. No nifty gurus, but a decent value title nonetheless.

============================
- 4) Inventory -
============================
Your inventory is where you stash most of your traditional items that you
gather across the game. There are primarily three different items you can hold
in your inventory: Cash, Drugs, or Weapons. Cash is a universal $ amount which
can be used for only purchasing more weapons via the black market, or for
accessing on-the-street mini-games to multiply the amount. Cash can also be
used to bribe beat cops to increase your badge rating, or is necessary to
purchase drugs from drug dealers. It's also required for one or two missions.
______
/Drugs/
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
This is the primary reason that NARC is such a controversial game, because it
has accessible drugs. Not only can you confiscate them, but you can cross the
law and use them if you wish. Drugs can also be sold to common civilians.
Simply select it in your inventory, then interact with others. There are
undercover cops out there occasionally who will try to arrest you, if you do
so. Taking drugs has certain effects.
