DATADYNE OPERATIONS BASE III – ATRIUM: MAP OVERVIEW
MISSION OBJECTIVES:
• FIND LAPTOP COMPUTER
• SWITCH OFF POWER MATRIX
• DOWNLOAD CRASH DATA FROM MAINFRAME
• LOCATE CRASH SITE
The third dataDyne Operations Base is split into three connected areas; the East Wing, the West Wing and the Atrium that joins the sectors together. You’ll begin in the Atrium where you’ll need a Key Card to pass through the locked door to the north – start by switching over to the Falcon 2 and then heading left as you trace the southern wall to the southwestern corner. If you’ve managed to stay out of sight, you should be able to locate a guard that blocks the entrance to the West Wing ahead. Approach the guard covertly and you’ll be able to take him out easily with a quick assassination. Inspect the guard to recover a Falcon 2 Clip, and then head to the north to find a Med-Kit (25% Health Restore) at the end of the corridor.
From here, you’ll need to head back down to the southern wall and begin heading east, passing the locked door until you arrive at the southeastern corner. You should be able to locate a second guard that stands at attention just above the East Wings entrance, but we’re going to avoid approaching him for now, as our position will be compromised. Instead, we’re going to begin walking north from the corner, and then turn east and head into the glass tunnel as soon as possible.
OPERATIONS BASE III – EAST WING: MAP OVERVIEW
As you enter the East Wing, you’ll need to continue moving right so that you enter the office without pausing; if you’ve done this successfully, you’ll be able to covertly approach the first vertically pacing guard before he’s reached the end of his southern patrol. Once you’ve assassinated the guard with the Falcon 2, you can inspect him for a Med-Kit (25% Health Restore), though if your health is in perfect condition, or near perfect condition, it might also be wise to leave it behind for later.
Continuing to the right will reveal a thin desk and a metal crate that divides the office; if you can manage to carefully work your way around the top of the crate and position yourself underneath the desk, you’ll be able to identify the shoulder of the next guard whilst remaining undercover.
Bide your time as you monitor the guard and you’ll witness him pacing the office vertically. Once he’s finished his patrol to the south, approach him covertly as he begins to head north and then assassinate him before he has the chance to turn around.
With our first office of the East wing cleared, we’re going to switch over to the Fantom and then enter the glass tunnel to the right. You’ll encounter the third guard as you begin to travel north through the tunnel, so keep to the middle and open fire the second he comes into view. After you’ve taken care of the guard, we’re going to opt for stealth once more – switch back to the Falcon 2 and then follow the tunnel to its end.
Without stopping, we’re going to travel through the width of the second office by heading west; once you’ve passed the dataDyne insignia on the wall, you should locate the fourth guard traveling in the same direction. You should be able to bridge the distance and assassinate the guard just as you reach a blue crate. As soon as you’ve managed to neutralize the fourth guard, take immediate cover behind the right side of the blue crate, as the fifth guard paces vertically on its left. Wait until the guard finishes his patrol to the south, and then approach him from behind – you should be able to assassinate him before he discovers his fallen comrade.
Inspecting the bodies of the fourth and fifth guard will provide us with a Med-Kit (25% Health Restore) and a Machine Gun clip respectively. We’ll collect both items and then switch over to the Fantom as we prepare to enter the glass tunnel to the west.
With the Fantom drawn and the Machine Gun clip equipped, we’ll keep ourselves positioned in the center of the tunnel and begin heading north. As soon as we make contact with the sixth guard, we’ll open fire with the Fantom and neutralize him as quickly as possible, inspecting his body to arm ourselves with another Machine Gun clip. Follow the tunnel to its end and you’ll enter the third office where you’ll locate the first Key Card on the desk to the south. Approach the Key Card from above and you’ll be granted the proper credentials to access the next Operations Base once it’s been retrieved.
From here, begin heading to the right and you’ll find your path is blocked by a second desk that divides the room vertically. Approach the left side of the desk and you’ll witness the seventh guard approaching the desk on the right side as he paces horizontally. Once the guard has reached the desk and turns to resume his patrol, work your way around the desk and approach him from behind for an assasination.
Inspecting the guard will relinquish the Shotgun and 8 rounds of Shotgun Ammunition, which we’ll take with us as we prepare to enter the next glass tunnel. Unlike our previous encounters, the eighth guard in the tunnel is facing away from us to the north, which gives us an ideal opportunity to take out the guard covertly.
When you’re ready, switch over to the Falcon 2 and make your way to the north through the tunnel – once you’ve located the dataDyne guard, close in on his position and go in for an assassination. Once the guard has been neutralized, you can inspect him for a Med-Kit (25% Health Restore).
Following the tunnel to its end will reveal the final office in the East Wing. When you cross the threshold and begin walking to the west, you’ll pass a large crate in the center of the room, with the ninth guard standing at attention on its southern face.
From here, you’ll need to stay on the left side of the crate, working your way down so that you can position yourself behind the guard and then go in for an assassination with the Falcon 2. Afterwards, switch over to the Shotgun and make your way to the left side of the office – you’ll encounter the final guard as he rings out a few shots from the Fantom – respond with a blast from the Shotgun and you should be able to take him out without sustaining too much damage. Inspecting the guard will provide us with a Machine Gun clip, which we’ll take with us as we make our way through the tunnel and return to the Atrium.
DATADYNE OPERATIONS BASE III – ATRIUM: MAP OVERVIEW
The second that you’ve appeared in the Atrium’s Upper East Wing tunnel, you’ll need to turn around and take a few steps back towards the area we’ve just left, as our position will be compromised by the approaching guard otherwise. After you’ve managed to avoid detection and the guard has finished his patrol to the north, follow him as he begins to head south and use the Shotgun to take him out with a single shot.
Continue heading south through the corridor and you’ll locate another guard near the East Wing tunnel that can be taken out with the Shotgun as well. Inspecting the guard nearest the Upper East Wing tunnel will provide us with a Med-Kit (25% Health Restore), and inspecting the guard nearest the Lower East Wing tunnel will provide us with a Falcon 2 clip.
Return to the entrance of the third Operations Base by heading west from the second guard, and you should be able to locate a security door in between two dataDyne insignia’s to the north. We’ll be able to bypass the security clearance by approaching the door with the Key Card we’ve obtained in the East Wing, simply approach the door as you head north and you’ll pass through unimpeded.
Continue heading north and you’ll encounter the final guard in the Atrium – you should be able to dispatch him with the Shotgun before he can set upon you properly. Unfortunately, the guard doesn’t offer us any supplies, so we’ll step over him as we enter the final dataDyne Operations Base.
