UP CLOSE & PERSONAL
CLOSE COMBAT
The professional uses close hand combat skills to eliminate the mark
with minimum noise and when dealing with unforeseen circumstances.
The majority of these skills are ideal in firearm-restricted areas.
HEAD USE
Use
L
to position
yourself in front of
the victim, then pull
r
to head butt
your target.
THE PUNCH
While the victim is
dazed, use
L
to
position yourself in
front of your target,
then press pull
r
to punch.
DISARMING
Use
L
to position
yourself in front
of the armed victim,
then pull
r
to
disarm the person.
Note: During the struggle, it’s possible that the firearm will go off accidentally.
CONCEALING WEAPONS
Whenever possible,
the professional
carries out his work
using tools that can
be concealed on his
person. He has
a number of tools at his disposal that, when concealed, can go undetected
in most public areas.
Use
L
to walk toward the mark, hold
X
to access the inventory and then
select a firearm. Pull
r
to discharge the firearm, then tap
X
to holster
and conceal it.
FIBER WIRE
The fiber wire is
the most difficult
of your weapons to
use but the easiest
to conceal. It is also
the quietest and most
efficient tool to use to avoid raising an alarm.
Select the fiber wire from inventory, then pull and hold
r
to tighten
the fiber wire and automatically enter sneak mode. Use
L
to maneuver
behind the mark, then release
r
to strangle the victim.
Note: If you are spotted or you fail to execute this move in one fluid movement, your
intended victim may become alerted, and attempt to raise an alarm or attack!
ELEVATOR
The professional
often looks for
secluded areas away
from TV cameras
and civilian witnesses
to eliminate a guard
or mark. Elevators provide an excellent space in which to do this.
While in an elevator, access the roof hatch by pressing pull
A
. Equip
the fiber wire from inventory, and then look toward the open hatch. While
a victim is visible below, press
A
to strangle and pull the mark up
and out of the elevator.
KNIVES
Knives are another
silent, easy to
conceal, efficient
means for the
professional to
eliminate the mark.
Select the knife from inventory. Pull and hold
l
to enter sneak mode,
and sneak toward the mark. When you’re behind the victim, pull
r
to silently slit the mark’s throat.
To throw a knife, use
the
R
to aim at the
victim, click and hold
L
, then release
L
to kill your mark.
