Mission walkthrough
-
Join Salvatore at the jetty
Begin the mission at Rockford and follow the boat sequence. Salvatore handles the route while Toni covers the escape. Once the shooting starts, concentrate on aiming rather than trying to steer the boat as though this were a normal free-roam journey.
-
Remove gunmen along the river
Scan the rocks, jetties and shoreline ahead for attackers. Fire as soon as each has a clear line to the boat. The supplied weapon has unlimited ammunition for this sequence, so protecting the boat matters more than conserving individual rounds.
-
Stop the pursuing boats
Track enemies arriving on the water and focus on the ones actively firing at you. Keep sweeping your aim between the sides and rear as the boat changes direction. Do not continue shooting empty scenery after the next threat has appeared elsewhere.
-
Deal with the helicopter
When the helicopter joins the attack, shift attention upward and fire at its exposed threat and aircraft. Keep pressure on it while maintaining awareness of any remaining attackers. Survive until the route and final confrontation are complete.
Key point
This is a shooting escort with a driven route. Early target detection preserves more boat health than waiting for an attacker to draw alongside.
