Mission REF 3: Matochkin Star

  • MISSION OBJECTIVE: Persuade the scientists

    BACKGROUND INFORMATION: see Mission REF 3 Geneva

    MISSION TACTICS:
    Trainer Mission
    There's an update for the Mission objective as soon as you arrive at the city. First you'll have to take out the Unguideds who are demolishing a car park. To get there you will have to follow the street going to the upper level. Four miniguns will take out the Unguideds without a problem. As they are finished take a car, and drive to the Church located at the left corner. We are going to take out some Zealots, though it's not in our mission objective. This will be the first time that you are outnumbered. Don't just cross the bridge that leads to the Church; if the Zealots all fire at once your shield will be drained in a second. Lure them away: retreat as soon as you're in the middle of the bridge. For some reason, you can't really shoot them while they are on the bridge.

    Retreat to the street, and as they come closer (and as they leave the bridge) you can start firing. If they are beginning to form a group, put your shields up and back up a little bit so that you can recover. (Only one Church agent or so will  follow you so don't worry.) When you have recovered, go back and take out the remaining agents. Get into the church because here you can find your first skin: epidermis version one. Fore more information about these skins, check the miscellaneous section. Drive to the first scientist-location.

    On your arrival ,some operatives will come and shoot the car -- no problem for our miniguns. Get inside, take out the couple of operatives there and persuade the scientists. It's time to learn how to drive a flying car: there are two cars waiting for you a little bit more to the north. Choose the one you like more, get the scientists into the car and fly to the second location. Fly over the second fortified location: you can easily take out the operatives this way. There's no danger for the scientists as long as you are in the car. If the coast is clear, land the car and persuade the two scientists. Get back to the IML link, and this Mission is a success.
