TIPS
1. Be careful

3. Make your squads open doors for you, Let them take damage
from fire instead of you
4. Don't leave your squad behind, always have them lead or
follow you
5. Always check every door, there might be a hostage, weapon,
or suspect
6. Do not be Mr. nice guy when confronted with gunmen, you can
try and stop them without firing but they will fire back
7. Always arrest a suspect or hostage when given the chance,
if you don't they will run away and suspects will come
after you
8. Do not shoot hostages or bombs, you will lose mission if
you do.
9. The Opt wand mirror thing does help to look around corners
without getting blasted.
10. Being gun crazy is good but hold back a little
11. Protect your squads, they will protect you
12. Do not shot your squad members they will turn on you and
kill you
13. Remember to use your squad in sticky situations
14. Flash bangs and smoke bombs work well
15. Always clear an area

THE WALKTROUGH:
When starting a game it doesn't really matter how you make
yourself look. Your characteristics do not matter either. When
picking a squad pick whoever you want as it doesn't matter.
When your finally ready choose call up or metro as that
doesn't matter either. Also when choosing gear it is all up to
you. It doesn't matter what you get.
This walkthrough will go through the few levels of career mode
with tips and information. This is hard because every level's
people change locations every time you play the level. I will
give a number hostages/civilians and suspects in each level as
well as a difficulty rating. (1 being easy and 10 being
hardest)I hope this helps you and you enjoy it.
LEVEL 1 BARRACADED SUSPECT ALONG PASEDENA FREEWAY
DIFFICULTY-1/10 HOSTAGES-1 SUSPECTS-1
OBJECTIVES:
1. Arrest suspect Martin Brenner
2. Locate all weapons
GUIDE:
Okay. This level is extremely easy. One suspect to arrest or
neutralize is all you have to do. You start by the front door
so have someone open it up. When inside the suspect will
either be in the stairwell, room under the steps, bedroom on
the second floor, or in the attic. When you arrest him pick up
his weapon. If you didn't pick up a sniper rifle then check
the attic. Also if you come across a woman just arrest and
evacuate her.
LEVEL 2 HIGH RISK ARREST WARRANT AT VICTOR GETTS RESIDENCE
Difficulty-2/10 HOSTAGES-0 SUSPECTS-2
OBJECTIVES:
1. Arrest Victor Getts
2. Arrest Albert Getts
3. Locate all weapons
Guide:
This level is very easy to. Two suspects so they will shot you
if not careful. When you star you are at the front door. Click
F to get your flashlight on. Tell your squad to open the door.
Usually Albert, the younger one, is in here. If he is arrest
him. If not he will most likely be in the bedroom at the end
of the hallway, or in the closest at the closest end. Pick up
his weapon and if you didn't go back to the front room and
find the Uzi under the coffee table. Next find your way to the
garage. Victor is always in here. Get his weapon and then move
onto the basement and find another Uzi on a desk to finish the
level.
LEVEL 3 HOSTAGE RESCUE AT THE RIVER TIGRIS
Difficulty-3/10 HOSTAGES-1 SUSPECTS-5
OBJECTIVES:
1. Rescue Ambassador Jemi Kemal
2. Arrest Lokmar Damar
3. Bring order to chaos
Guide:
This level may be hard but is fairly easy. You star outside
the River Tigris and soon will be under fire. Arrest him and
any others that shot you. Some may go into the back room. Tell
your squad to follow them. After that continue finding small
doors until you find stairs leading down. Put your flashlight
on and tell your men to go on. Down here you will meet
resistance and possibly the Ambassador. Arrest all and
evacuate the ambassador. Lokmar will be wearing a vest and the
ambassador will have a bag over his head. If you don't find
everyone there is a white door in the basement where Lokmar
usually hides. (To bring order to chaos arrest 3 suspects)

Difficulty-8/10 HOSTAGES-4 SUSPECTS-8
OBJECTIVES:
1. Rescue Donald Foreman
2. Rescue Linda Foreman
3. Rescue Emily Foreman
4. Rescue Jacob Foreman
5. Bring order to chaos
GUIDE:
This level is extremely hard for those who still are getting
used to the game. The location where you start is near the
pool with an entrance to the house up some steps. Getting in
is dangerous so have your squad clear out each room one by
one. Your main goal is to control the room in the middle of
the house as this is the most dangerous. There are many
windows that gunmen can shoot through. Get into this room and
quickly go to the backyard and kill all the gunmen you see. If
you give mercy they will kill you. After this there should be
one suspect upstairs and downstairs. Rescue all hostages and
you win. (To bring order to chaos arrest 6 suspects)

12. Bring order to chaos
GUIDE:
Many objectives but fairly easy. You start in a courtyard and
soon will be fired upon. Make your way to a room with stairs in
it. Be careful here as gunmen will shot you from above. Make your
way up and across the hallway. Find the door at the other end and
go up the stairs in there to find a hostage. Search this area
completely then find a secret door in the room in the back. It
will lead down into the area behind the altar. Go into the church
area clear it all out. There is a room to the right of the altar
and a room right behind the altar. Walk near the wall until you
find it. Inside is a hostage. (To bring order to chaos arrest 5
suspects)

Difficulty-6/10 HOSTAGES-0 SUSPECTS-11
OJECTIVES:
1. Bring order to chaos
2. Disable 3 air missile launchers
3. Prevent destruction of aircraft
GUIDE:
This level is very dark to see and easy to get lost. Have your
flash light on and always be with your group incase of attack.
You will hear gunfire but your squad should take care of you.
To prevent destruction of aircraft you must complete the first
two objectives. When you start the game open the door and
continue straight to the first door you see. Walk in ,clear
area, and then have a squad member diffuse the missile
launcher. Come out the way you did and continue straight the
way you were going. Soon take a left until you find a ramp
leading down into an in ground area. It is hard to explain but
through a pipe you should find the other two missile launchers
and diffuse them. Now all you have to do is search for more
people to bring order to chaos. (To bring order to chaos
arrest 9 suspects)( Also make sure downed suspects are dead or
being evacuated and not just lying there moaning.)

OBJECTIVES:

2. Rescue Marie Bonds
3. Rescue Gwen Davis
4. Rescue Julia King
5. Bring order to chaos
GUIDE:
You start on the roof of the bank and must open a door to get
into the attic of the bank. This is basically a maze with one
gunman inside. It is tough to explain but when you find a door
with a picture of stairs on it your through. When in the bank
go down a hallway with a lot offices. Most of these may have
hostages inside. Work your way to the entrance while
confronting about two gunmen. Rescue the downed officer and
open the safe door to find another hostage. (To bring order to
chaos arrest 4 suspects)

start in a grass area under a tunnel leading into the
television center. There may be someone in the tunnel. When
you make it to the next door stand behind your man then clear
the area once the door is opened. Should be about 4 suspects
all with heavy rifles. Could be dangerous. After that clear
out the hall with the bathrooms and green room. Next continue
to the stairs and clear out the top floor. Next after you
cleared everything go into the hall with the bathrooms and
green room. Go behind the wooden wall and continue until you
find a passage. It will lead you to the set of a show. You
will find many hostages and quite possibly some resistance.
Rescue all hostages and you are half way through the game.
(To bring order to chaos arrest 8 suspects)
LEVEL 9 HIGH RISK ARREST WARRANT AT THE PHEONIX LOUNGE
DIFFICULTY-4/10 HOSTAGES-1 SUSPECTS-4
OBJECTIVES:
1. Arrest Ric "Dog" Peters
2. Arrest Jon T. Elliot
3. Arrest Brad Kurtz
4. Arrest Brit Hogue
5. Locate all weapons
GUIDE:
In my eyes this level is extremely easy. You start outside the
Phoenix Lounge. Getting in is the only hard part. The first
room is huge so have your squad in first and back them up.
Make sure you find all suspects and pick up their weapons when
they are dead or handcuffed. In the first room find both bars
and go behind the counter to find a gun in each bar. Also two
desks in the room have guns on them to. Next go by the dance
floor and find the bathrooms. There is usually someone in
here. Now find a door in the first room right of the dance
floor leading to a room full of boxes. Clear this room out and
continue to the back of the club. Remember there is a gun
behind the door of the box room leading into the back of the
club. Clear out the whole back area of the club. There are 2
guns in the living room on the desk, 2 on the table in the
kitchen, and 2 on the bed in the bedroom. To find all weapons
you must get 13 guns. If you can't find them just keep looking
through the whole level.
LEVEL 10 HOSTAGE RESCUE AT THE HOTEL CARLYLE
DIFFICULTY-9/10 HOSTAGES-10 SUSPECTS-23
OBJECTIVES:
1. Rescue President Igor Stomas
2. Rescue Eduard Galeeo
3. Rescue unknown number of hostages
4. Bring order to chaos
GUIDE:
I find this level extremely hard mainly because of windows and
one dangerous staircase. This level is beatable so do not
worry. You start your mission on the roof. Work your way to
the first door. Here you have many options. There is a door
that leads to the staircase and a door to more rooms on the
same floor. If you stay on the same level(Which I recommend)
make sure the door to the staircase is closed. Even though
it's closed many suspects will probably make their way up it
and kill you from behind. Best to leave two guys near the
staircase. These next rooms you'll find can be very difficult.
There is a bedroom and a living room you need to be careful
in. There are windows in them so suspects can shot you from
outside on a balcony. When this floor is clear you should have
saved all hostages and only need to bring order to chaos. Head
downstairs via the dangerous staircase. There should be about
at least 7 guys in the staircase. Luckily their dumb so you
should be able to handle it. (Lead with group or go yourself
and just neutralize everyone) In the basement just clear out
everything until you finish all objectives. Also in the
kitchen in the basement check the freezer, there is usually
someone in here. (To bring order to chaos arrest 20 suspects,
and to rescue unknown number of hostages rescue five)
LEVEL 11 VIP DETAIL AT THE LOS ANGELUS CONVENTION CENTER
DIFFICULTY-7/10 HOSTAGES-11 SUSPECTS-25
OBJECTIVES:
1. Protect life of Igor Stomas
2. Protect dignitaries from harm
3. Maintain safe perimeter
GUIDE:
You start this level in the heat of battle in a RV. Neutralize
the two or arrest them. When you get out meet up with your two
other squad members and clear all of the outside and evacuate
all the dignitaries. Make your way through the front doors and
clear out the whole first floor. To do this keep to your right
and shot whoever you see. Next clear out the cafeteria. Then
go to the back room and then clear out the bathrooms. Now to
make your way upstairs. First use the stairs instead of the
escalator which will lead you into the open. In the stairs
there are usually 4 suspects. It is hard to kill them but when
you do you have a safe way to the second floor. Go left or
right and clear out the top floor. This level is fairly easy
except for many suspects and sometimes suspects will sneak up
on you. (To protect dignitaries save ten of them and to
maintain safe perimeter arrest or neutralize 20 suspects.

As I have said before this walkthrough/guide is only half the
game. Part 2 may come in the future. Until then have fun with
these challenges.
1. Only use a pistol in the game
2. Only use a bean bag gun in the game
3. Set whole team to bean bag guns and try not to neutralize
any suspects
4. Drop your squad off somewhere and beat all levels alone
5. Beat as many levels as you can without losing a squad
member or being shot
6. Arrest suspects with no guns, Just flash bangs and smoke
grenades
THESE CAN ALL BE DONE AND ARE VERY FUN TO DO
