SYPHON FILTER 2 WALKTHROUGH CONT'D

MISSION FOUR CONT'D
Creep forward until one of the commandos starts beating up the agent on the left. Creep forward a bit further and remain standing (don't crouch or your aim will be off and the trick won't work). Take a bead on the other commando's head and wait patiently until the first commando comes over in front of him. Take out both the guards in one shot (you must do this or the other commando will shoot the agents and you fail). Run forward for an FMV where Thompson and Ramirez give you a sit-rep. Now it's time to get off the mountain and protect Thompson and Ramirez (I wonder what's happened to Chance?). Don't miss the Flak Jackets the two commandos leave behind if you need them. Head forward and a truck pulls up. Three commandos with Flak Jackets get out and attack you. Kill them quickly with headshots. Continue to move forward and a second truck pulls up with three more commandos. Get them quickly with headshots and move forward for one more truck with three more commandos you must get quickly with headshots. Run to the end of the tunnel to complete the mission. An FMV follows and shows you coming to another bridge with a train running underneath that Archer promptly swoops in and destroys with the helicopter. You may now save your game.

FIFTH MISSION: McKenzie Airbase Exterior
LOCATION: Colorado, USA: McKenzie Airbase
DATE/TIME: 09/08 05:15
OPERATIVE: Lian Xing
BRIEFING: You've escaped the airbase holding facility and given yourself an adrenaline booster shot to stave off the effects of Syphon Filter. You must now find a way into the base control tower and then steal a chopper. If possible, observe Morgan and his operatives and uncover any Agency plans you can.

Airbase personnel believe you're a terrorist under quarantine, and will fire if they spot you. Avoid detection, and use non-lethal means to eliminate any obstacles to your goal.

Now it's back to Lian. You must sneak around, take out "enemies" with your Taser, and steal a Chopper. You pick up basically where you left off at the end of the second mission. First you must find a silenced weapon without alerting any guards. Use your Taser if any of them get in your way. The mission starts with you overhearing a conversation between two guards. While they are talking sneak up past the tree and bushes in front of you and get behind the next lone bush on the left. One guard heads off and the other begins circling the courtyard. Sneak up behind him and follow him until he stops at the second light post. Use the Taser to take him out and get M-16 Ammo. Although you might be able to just sneak right by this guard I think it's best not to take any chances. Sneak forward between the two buildings and round the corner to see the other guard running away. Follow him for an FMV (you can run to keep up with him if you want). You will see Holman talking to the guard and get an added objective. The truck drives off leaving one other truck - hmmmm - and two guards some distance apart pacing back and forth. First use the bushes as cover to sneak to the left - be sure you stay BEHIND them or the guard will spot you. When the guard closest to you turns to walk away sneak up behind him, wait until he stops at the back of the truck and take him out with the Taser. Check the back of the truck to get Sniper Rifle, to complete the objective and to reach a checkpoint. Now wait by the back of the truck (stay crouched) until the second guard turns to walk to the right. Sneak along the path and get to the bush on the left close to where the guard ends up when he comes back to the left (you may want to watch him for a bit to determine his path and pattern of movement). Wait for him to walk away again and sneak along behind him. Stay to the left close to the wall so he doesn't see you when he turns right at the end of his path - take him out with the Taser when he stops.
NOTE: You can just wait by the back of the truck until the second guard stops on the left (NOT on the right), then begin sneaking up on him and follow him when he goes to the right - just remember to get close to the wall with the darker colored ground before he turns at the end of his route.
Again you may be able to just sneak past one or both of these guards but why take chances. Besides you need more ammo for the M-16 right? Go down the alley past the second guard and climb up. Climb up again and sneak forward. There doesn't seem to be any guards around but if you look carefully to the right over the top of the truck there are two guards mulling about in a narrow alley. As you climb off the roof, one of the guards hears you and comes to check it out (I don't think there's any way to avoid this - besides it separates the guards making them easier to get). He proceeds to circle the truck. Hide in front of the truck between the middle of the grill and the right headlight and get him just as he reaches the front (this is really tricky - wait too long and he sees you; go too early and your Taser tips him off to your presence). Now sneak along the passenger's side of the truck and round the left corner to the alley carefully. The second guard is still there but you can stay hidden behind the green boxes, then climb over them, drop down on the other side, sneak behind him and give him a zap. Turn around and continue sneaking forward between the boxes and you overhear Morgan, Falkan, and a guard talking. The guard then comes toward you so hide in the cubbyhole behind you and get behind him after he passes by. He stops pretty quickly and you can zap him for more M-16 ammo (or you can just wait at the corner, stay crouched, and zap him when he gets to you). Continue around the corner. Pass another cubbyhole to receive a message and a new objective as well as a checkpoint (phew!!!). Sneak right toward the chain link fence, check to your left and press the switch to open a large door. Go through and press the other switch on the left to close the door behind you (this may not be necessary - I'm just a cautious fellow). Sneak through the corridor until you reach the plane hangar. Sneak forward to the corner behind the short red columns with grey tops - stay towards the back of the plane. Look towards the front of the plane and you can see the yellow steps leading up to the pilot's seat. You can also barely see the pilot's head above the wing. Get the pilot with a headshot (remain standing so you can do this - climb on top of the red columns to get a better shot) and you complete the objective and get a checkpoint. To sabotage the plane, , got to the back wheels and search under the plane to find F-22 Access Panel. Use Triangle button to check it and sabotage the plane for yet another cleared objective and checkpoint. You radio Teresa to tell her you've done it and learn Gabe is holding his own on the mountain. During the FMV you move back towards the entrance. Suddenly an air force guard approaches. You automatically get to cover by the entrance. Quickly switch to the Taser, wait for him to come past and when he stops go to him and use the Taser. Go back the way you came and open the door. BE CAREFUL!! When you look around the corner there are two guards who approach from the right around the next corner in the alley. Carefully creep to the corner and get the camera angle so you can see them without being seen - you know go close to the corner, look at the wall, and turn right. Wait until one of the guards approaches. When he walks back, sneak up behind him (do not wait until he comes back around to the second guard or they circle together and you cannot take them out - you must then just sneak past them). Take out this guard with Taser, then sneak around the perimeter to get behind the second guard and get him as well.
NOTE: you can by-pass these two guards all together. Just come straight throught he door and go right. Stay behind the first box you come to until both guards enter from the right and go past. Continue forward, go right and on past the truck to the yellow roadblock.
Now go to the right (the right that the two guards originally come in from) and continue forward to another truck and lots of boxes. At the first opportunity take out the spotlight ahead of you. As you continue past the yellow roadblock you reach a checkpoint. A truck drives past in the alley ahead of you. Wait for another truck and get alongside it as it drives by - running all the way - to avoid detection by the guards in the alley. Make sure you are running along about midways on the truck. When you pass the cubbyhole ahead on the right, stop and crouch before you get too close to the guard up ahead of you. Now sneak across to the other side of the alley and continue through the passageway with boxes lying around. When you come to a garage area you will see two more trucks inside. Holman and Morgan are walking away and a guard is circling the second truck through the doorway. Just sneak forward to the entrance by the other truck to reach a checkpoint (watch out for that guard - he will stop in the doorway for a few moments then continue circling the truck). A short FMV follows where you hear Holman and Morgan talking. After it ends, sneak out of the cubbyhole, head right and out the doorway. You see Holman walking away with the guard. Sneak up behind them, but stay well to the right and against the wall. Wait for Holman to dismiss the guard then CAREFULLY follow him as you sneak around the boxes. Holman has stopped; approach him for an FMV of Lian interrogating him and you reach a checkpoint and complete the objective. Note that you now have a silenced HK-5. Sneak back into the garage - the guard is now behind the truck in the main garage area - the first one you see on the far wall. Sneak around the back of the truck, get behind him and get him with the Taser. Go past the next truck and into the next corridor with boxes lying around. BE CAREFUL!! A guard is right there walking back and forth. Get in the corner to the right and sneak up on him when he walks away (or stay to left in corridor, stay behind the box as you round the corner, stay crouched behind the box just to the right of the "F" in "USAF" and get him when he walks by). Continue left and go around the corner and to the right. Now you must create a distraction … what to do, what to do?? Sneak up to the green boxes, wait for the guard to make his round (make sure you have Sniper Rifle or HK-5 equipped) then sneak out and take out the spotlight on the other side of the area. You could also run to the other end of the tunnel you were in just before you entered this area and get the spotlight from there but be careful as there are guards on that end as well. Switch to Taser and at the first opportunity take out the guard (back at the end farthest from the spotlight). You may have to hide behind the green boxes again, wait until he moves past while making his rounds, then sneak up behind him as he moves away and get him when he stops between two boxes for a moment or two. Sneak up to the truck and check it to find Truck Ignition. Avoid the guards so they don't see you and be sure to run for cover before the truck goes barreling away and leaves you exposed. Get to the nearest box quickly and the two guards run after the truck. Now's your chance to get into the tower. Run inside to complete the objective and get a checkpoint. Go forward and take a right to get on the elevator. Go up. You overhear a controller talking when you reach the top. QUICKLY, run to the right and zap the guy behind the glass marking map, then run back around and get behind the other guy and zap him too. Turn around and go over towards the glass map and you will see a "switch" on the wall. Go to it to get the Transponder Frequency. You also get another checkpoint and complete another objective. There is a short FMV of you talking to Teresa, then you must go back down in the elevator and get the chopper. Go forward out of the elevator, go left at the end of the hall and then sneak to the corner (where you would go if you had taken a left when you first came in) and you hear Falkan telling the guard to stay. Quickly sneak up behind the guard and get him with your Taser, then equip the Sniper Rifle and take out Falkan with a headshot. Run to the Chopper to complete the mission and save.

SIXTH MISSION: Colorado Train Ride
LOCATION: Colorado, USA: United Pacific Train 101
DATE/TIME: 09/08 06:00
OPERATIVE: Gabe Logan
BRIEFING: You've escaped another missile attack from Archer by jumping onto a westbound United Pacific freight train. It will bring you within five miles of the downed C-130. You must reach the engine and prepare to stop the train as it approaches the crash site.

Archer is using his Blackhawk UH-60 to deploy an Agency RET (Retrieval and Elimination Team). He will destroy the train rather than let you get off the mountain alive. Eliminate any operatives that get in your way.

You are now on a train (remember the one passing under the bridge at the end of the fourth mission - yep, that's the one you're on now). You must get to the engine at the front of the train to stop it and eliminate enemies deployed from Archer's chopper - the members of the RET. Of course you have to start at the back of the train; you get a call from Lian saying she is on her way with a chopper (the one you stole at the end of the fifth mission).
NOTE: If you jump down there is an ammo box with a Flak Jacket inside in the damaged car.
You begin the mission. Go to the next car but be ready for a fight (be sure your M-16 is equipped). Archer's chopper passes overhead and you can see three RET members jump out onto a flatbed car of the train. Just inch your way forward until you can barely see their heads sticking up and get them with headshots - they won't know what hit them and don't fire a shot unless they happen to see you. Run forward (don't forget to take their ammo). When you get to the next car BEWARE. One of the commandos on the next flatbed tosses grenades at you. Take him out quickly (he's the one on the right - you may have to dodge the grenades) and then get the other one on the left. Next a lone commando attacks as you move forward - he's between the two cars. Take him out then go forward and get the other two that come from the top of the next car. Go forward and two more commandos attack you. As you come forward on the next car you may see two more commandos on the car behind the tanker. If they haven't spotted you yet, take them with headshots from the Sniper Rifle. Don't forget to re-equip the M-16. Come forward to the tanker car. You just might get lucky - drop between the tanker and the next car to see if one of the two you sniped is lying there - take his Flak Jacket. Now go to the next car and move forward for a checkpoint. Move forward to a second tanker car. Two more commandos approach. Duck behind the tower sticking up in the middle of the tanker car and use it for cover to sneak and snipe them. From the top of the next car you should be able to get the commandos on the next flatbed just like you did the ones at the beginning of the mission. Watch out for the tunnel. You may want to wait until you clear it before going on. A commando in the next flatbed lobs grenades and there are two more between the cars. Get the one lobbing grenades quickly with a headshot - he is wearing a Flak Jacket. If you don't go ahead and get the two between the cars they attack you from behind as you move forward on the next flatbed. It's up to you when you want to get them but it might be easier to let them come out in the open - just be ready for them. Otherwise the flatbed is surprisingly empty. Continue forward. You go through a tunnel. Everything goes black and your NVG - Night Vision Goggles - automatically kicks in. At the same time four or five more commandos attack. Get them anyway you can (get them with headshots - they might leave Flak Jackets behind) and go on. As you continue forward one more commando attacks. The next car is uneventful. You advance across three red cars and when you get to another tanker, you get an FMV of a commando coming from behind and blowing up the tanker with a Grenade. You jump to the next car to end the mission and save.

SEVENTH MISSION: Colorado Train Race
LOCATION: Colorado, USA: United Pacific Train 101
DATE/TIME: 09/08 06:15
OPERATIVE: Gabe Logan
BRIEFING: An oil tanker has been destroyed by an Agency commando's grenade, splitting the train in two. You managed to jump clear of the explosion, but now you're facing worse news.

Archer has blown out a rail bridge ten miles ahead of the train's current position. You haven't got much time. You've got to reach the engine and stop the train before it reaches the gorge.

Looks like you are still on the train. Archer blows up the bridge ahead of you. You must stop the train (and probably take out any remaining RET commandos) before you reach the bridge (ha - what bridge). You have eight minutes as indicated by a timer on the screen. Two more commandos attack as you move forward. Just nail them hard with the M-16 and continue forward. You come to a flatbed loaded with boxes and three more commandos (don't miss the ammo box with a Flak Jacket inside). Get the commandos with your M-16 and continue. The next car is uneventful. You come to another flatbed loaded with boxes. BE CAREFUL. A commando ahead lobs grenades at you. When you jump to the flatbed jump so you land on top of the boxes and get him with a headshot (he is wearing a Flak Jacket). The next flatbed has boxes too - it's where the commando lobbed grenades from. Next is a blue car where two or three more commandos attack. There's nothing on the red car, but on the next flatbed there are two more commandos. The next red car has nothing, but on the next flatbed with boxes there are two nasty commandos. One of them has a 45 and the other has a Shotgun; they both sneak around making them difficult targets. Just equip something that packs a punch and get them as quickly as you can by walking right up to them, then move on. Two commandos run away from you but not for long. One of them stops on top of the car and the other goes on to the flatbed. Get them quickly and go on. There's nothing on the red car, but the next flatbed with boxes has one commando. The next flatbed with boxes has three more commandos. Get them quickly and move on. There is nothing on the green car, and the next car is the engine. There are two commandos with Flak Jackets so get them with headshots. At the main engine there is one more commando with a Flak Jacket. Get him and continue forward for an FMV. You can't stop the train so Lian hovers close by the blasted bridge. You jump off the train into the chopper, the train crashes into the gorge, and you complete the mission and save.

EIGHTH MISSION: C-130 Wreck Site
LOCATION: Colorado, USA: C-130 Wreckage Site
DATE/TIME: 09/08 06:45
OPERATIVE: Gabe Logan
BRIEFING: The Agency has reached the crash site before you, and Archer has his men searching for the data discs. You've got to get the discs before they do. Fortunately, they won't be expecting you to 'chute in, so you can get the drop on them.

Before the crash, the crate holding the discs was stashed in the tail section of the plane. It's likely still there. Retrieve it ASAP and rendezvous with Lian at the clearing one click south.

Lian takes you to the crash site but she can't land. So you parachute into the wreckage site and land right in the middle of Archer's Elite Hit Squad. You must get to the tail section of the plane to get the data discs, and then meet Lian for an extraction. You land right in front of two commandos. Creep around the hill and use a sneak and snipe tactic to take them out with your Sniper Rifle or take them out in regular combat - just charge forward and get them with your M-16, Shotgun, or 9mm. As you move forward you can see the cockpit/nosecone of the plane and on the backside of this hill you will find an ammo box with a Flak Jacket inside.
NOTE: When you take out the guy on the right side of the first hill (make sure you have also taken out the guy on the left) you might get lucky; as you inch forward by the cockpit and peak each time with your Sniper Rifle you may see two other commandos in the distance. You can get them with your Sniper Rifle if you are quick, although the second is liable to run for cover before you can zoom in on him.
As you move forward there is another commando on the left side and another behind the cockpit who will hide in a hole and lob grenades at you (these are in addition to the two on the right side of the cockpit). If the grenade guy is not already tossing Grenades at you, sneak to the left and use a sneak and snipe tactic to get the commando on the left and then take the grenade guy unawares. If the grenade guy is already tossing grenades then equip Shotgun and rush forward to take out him and the commando on the left quickly. Now move forward past where the grenade guy was - he had 9mm Ammo - and check under the wreckage of what appears to be a wing from the plane. You will find an ammo box that contains Sniper Rifle Ammo. Continue moving forward and to the left over a large hill with bare twisted trees and you can see wreckage from the cargo section of the plane below (looks like a pop can with the top and bottom torn off). As you move past (or through) this part of the plane you are ambushed. Snipers will take head shots at you. Approach from the right (this seems to be the safest as it provides the most cover) then turn and run back to safety when the snipers come out (listen for the enemy commander to signal the ambush). Use the plane section as cover, equip the sniper rifle, and sneak and snipe the snipers. There will be three regular snipers and one behind the next hill that lobs grenades. For the grenade guy, just equip Shotgun and charge forward for a quick kill. Re-equip Sniper Rifle and continue past the next section of open plane, then to the section with the top missing. Continue forward through the wreckage and to the right to find an ammo box that says Data Discs, but don't miss a second ammo box behind this one and in the corner that has M-79. You may want to get the M-79 first, and then check the Data Discs to complete the objective and get a checkpoint. But when you check for the discs they are not there. An FMV follows. Archer has already found the discs. He taunts you for a moment then heads off leaving four commandos behind for your entertainment - guess what, they take headshots. Sneak and snipe them with your choice of weapon (M-79 makes short work of them, just watch your ammo) to get another checkpoint. Now to find Archer and get the discs back. Head back the way you came but be cautious. When you come to the first cargo section you are ambushed, once again by commandos who just love to take headshots. Just go through the plane and crouch behind a portion of it when the ambush starts. It's pretty easy to sneak and snipe the commandos from here. Take them out, about three or four of them (who's counting anyway), to get another checkpoint. Continue forward to get ambushed yet again at the next section of plane. If you go left, you are ambushed with a grenade attack, if you go right snipers who take headshots ambush you, and if you go through the plane you are boxed in by three or four regular commandos equipped with Flak Jackets. The snipers seem to be easiest to handle (but you can try the other approaches at your own risk) as you only get three of them. Just make a U-turn and run into the plane for cover when they come out, then sneak and snipe them for another checkpoint. As you continue forward (you might want to equip M-16 and start running) you can hear a helicopter. Is it Lian? No, it's Archer trying to make a clean getaway. Not a chance. Continue forward to see the chopper lifting off, and as you get closer you can see Archer hanging on underneath. Shoot him with the M-16 until he falls to complete the mission. This is the tricky part. You must get Archer with a headshot to make him fall to the ground, but the chopper is moving and you are so far away. Just keep trying and you will get it. An FMV follows where Logan gets the Discs and Lian picks him up. The Agency manipulates the media to make Logan and Lian fugitives. Teresa can't hack the Syphon Filter Data with the codes on the discs - it seems they are not all there. A plan is hatched to get the rest of the codes to unlock the Syphon Filter Data. This is the end of disc one. Save, press X-button, then WHEN THE GAME TELLS YOU TO, remove disc one and insert disc two.

END OF DISC ONE

GOING SOMEWHERE ELSE?
