Mission walkthrough

  1. Stay with Ivan’s car

    Head towards Roman’s garage and follow Ivan when he escapes. Keep sight of his turns and brake before junctions. The pursuit moves into a construction site, so do not waste the entire chase trying to destroy his vehicle.

  2. Climb after him

    Leave the car and follow the ladders and rooftop route. Line up each jump before accelerating towards the edge. Use the next marked route segment rather than attempting a long leap to the street below.

  3. Choose at the ledge

    Approach Ivan when he is hanging from the edge. Follow the on-screen choice to spare or kill him. Either outcome completes Vlad’s job; sparing Ivan allows a later random encounter in Alderney.

Key point

There is no need to kill Ivan to keep the main story moving. Save before the job if you want to compare the two outcomes without replacing your preferred timeline.
