Mission walkthrough

  1. Prepare for the meeting

    Take Smoke to Downtown with health, armour and ammunition ready. The meeting turns into a close-range fight, so keep a useful weapon selected.

  2. Clear the interior

    Shoot the Russians from cover and watch Smoke’s health. Work through the closest threats before moving across open floor. Collect dropped ammunition only when the immediate firing lane is clear.

  3. Follow Smoke outside

    Leave with him and eliminate enemies blocking the escape. Keep close enough to advance the next stage instead of remaining indoors to search for every pickup.

  4. Defend the motorcycle

    Once Smoke takes the handlebars, aim at pursuing riders, car occupants and roadblock threats. Focus on enemies actively damaging the bike. Follow the prompted targets during the drainage-channel escape and keep firing until the scripted getaway ends.

Key point

You cannot steer the bike during the gunner section. Spend your attention on approaching enemies and the motorcycle’s condition rather than trying to choose a different road.
