As a stealth focused player I LOVED this escalation. Funny people say level 2 is hard as I thought that was a breeze, level 1 was the one I kept failing for some reason. Anyway, great atmosphere, cool change to the level, great gameplay with a different feel from the main mission. This is one I would replay for fun.
I know some prefer the puzzle elements but you get lots of escalations focused on that, let us stealth guys have our showcases too. 
If you go into your career inventory, the dart gun shows up as the Sieker1. If you do a mission loadout, then it shows properly. Weird glitch.
Even though Iām not a big Fan of the instant Fail Condition, I thought it would offer a unique Challenge to do a Kill Everyone Challenge on it, so hereās Level 1.
(I will take care of the Bikers in the Main Building in Level 2, since they are technically not Part of the Map and I didnāt wanted to risk it at the End.)
Options are limited because of the kill conditions, but I liked the changes to Berlin on this one.
The rejigged map was eerie; and while it didnāt last, I was getting light Manhunt vibes from the first level.
Cool runs dude, made it look easy.
Played this escalation yesterday. Mixed feelings about it.
Pro:
Con:
Even though I listed more cons, I kind of liked it. Not the best deluxe escalation but pretty decent!
Escalations are really not my thing. Decided to give this a go. A Suit Only/Silent Assassin/No KO/No Dart Gun/No Subdue version for Level 3ā¦
Just started this one so donāt ruin it for me, but first impressions are ādis gon be gud!ā
Love the waking up in the straight jacket, gives me vibes of C47 but also that initial wow factor like the Carpathian Mountains train.
Having said that, Iām only on level 1 so far, so of course it could well be a flop yet lol.
But the main reason to post is because Iām surprised nobodyās clocked the names of the first 3 targets yetā¦ Fonder, Hoppa & Nicola.
Love when IO add little touches like this.
