The mission is just a bit meh for me and there are definitely other missions which are better than this one which deserve to advance.I don’t find anything particularly interesting about this mission gameplaywise,the objective of hiding the target’s body is annoying,I don’t like hearing slow/fast ambience play in the background instead of a proper track and Desert Sun doesn’t really fit with the setting and feels a bit tiring because of this(I would have liked to hear some of the Indian tracks play in this level instead,but unfortunately I can’t…Such a shame…).
Good to see more people give points to this mission.
It’s actually a pretty easy mission once you figure it out. Grab disguise, carry the sniper rifle but keep a bit of distance from the guards and for heaven’s sake don’t sprint, climb the mosque / temple, one shot on the car in the front of the limo, one shot through the targets’ sunglasses. Bam! Mission success
Preach!
What I want to know is why Redemption at Gontranno has such a high score?!
Lol, I was wondering who´d be the first to raise an eyebrow to that I honestly like this mission. Sure, it can be a pain to pull it off SA, and it has only one way of completing it, but I really like how unique it is within the game and series - a moving target, limited window of opportunity, and a badass .50 cal Barrett rifle to complete it with. There just hasn´t been anything like it since
Yeah, happy for that too. In fact all my favourites from the game seem to be getting a lot of love so far, so I can afford to distribute the plus points elsewhere for now it seems
I seriously need to replay H2SA and Contracts. I wanna participate but my memory of them is shocking (and I’d rather not get put on blast by @IlikeHitman)
Never liked those and my problem with it is that it looks like the guards are positioned in such a way to finish the mission silently but sadly it’s not the case, it always leads to pew-pews
I already knew about that,but thanks for telling me anyway.
Becasue I don’t think anybody has substracted points from that mission yet.
Well,I usually see only hate for that mission,so that’s why it was a bit curious.
I cannot say I hate it,but I cannot say I love it either.Let’s just say I kinda like it too(unlike Plutonium runs loose from last round).
In fact I would say there are three.Going on a roof(even without a sniper rifle) triggers the motorcade to spawn on the map and from then on you don’t necessarly need to snipe the target.You can also do the same thing,but with a pistol on the ground(like speedruners like Kotti do) or there is another method(which is a bit more weird):killing the target through the car with a katana/fire axe!I know it is unbelievable,but it is true.Here is a video if you are curious:
To be honest,there are so many missions in this game that it is difficult to decide which ones should advance and which ones should leave.There are some obvious choices for the missions which should remain in the game(like Anathema or Invitation to a party) and for the ones which shouldn’t(like Hidden Valley,At the gates or Tunnel rat).But it is difficult to place everything else in between.That’s why I am also not sure how to feel about Motorcade.
No!
That’s the great thing about this mission: you can finish it silently, with a careful combination of sniping and fibre wiring. It takes the, what I consider cheap, trick of using your footsteps to make certain guards face another way, but it does work. It makes for a very intense final mission.
The fact you can end it both with a shooting spree and silently sneaking around makes it my favorite final mission in the series.
Anyway, lest we forget why we are really here
