It's also possible to avoid killing the guards just behind the motion detector by scanning and tagging the ladder down, and just after that you can scan a pathway down below that turns up yellow on the scanner. If you do this in time you can suggest Reed takes the easier route below, after prompting him you've got "another plan". Then don't shoot the leaning guard, rather distract him shooting the crates behind him.
Very frustrating mission. One hair out of place and you have to go loud. And wanting to do it right I always end up restarting. The two idiots at the end get me. Lol
@justsurfin5013 that's not what we mean yes you can save before getting on the sniper but once you do no saving and the section is slow and if you wanna do it without fucking up you have to reload that sniper save over and over its terrible
I’m good at it with my pistol but not with this big wonky thing. And having the scan and zoom both on the left side (Xbox) is totally idiotic and awkward. But tbh I never understood you could let those first two guards just walk on by lol. Thought I had to shoot them but that was not working out. Glad I watched this. Thx for the tip, I’ll try it.
@@CPTechnoWizard Happy to help! I suck at sniping and I kept killing those first two guards as well at first so I spent like 2 hours just reloading that segment over and over again. 😭🤣
True-- If you manage to mess up somehow, it won't do the animation of you jacking out of the gun, so you're just stuck. This apparently only happens if you mess up and reed gets spotted. Frustrating as hell
in the middle of the hallway there is a object to quickhack to distract the guards then you shoot them as quickly as you can i reccomend system collapse or in in the original game would like to call it system reset it drops enemies silently so yah
My issue was that I kept trying to get them just as they enter. I'd get one of them and not the other OR the damage was low. They don't see Reed immediately, just wait until they are half way to Reed, you will get a clear shot this way
This part of the mission is a pain. And itself not for any bugs, I didn’t get any, but because the aiming is so beyond jerky and fast I couldn't precisely aim at anything. It was honestly pissing me off.
Go into scan mode while you’re looking down the scope. It will stop everything so you can line up a shot, pop out, then pop back in to scan mode and line up your next shot.
By the way, in 4:10, if you have enough hacking skills and act quickly, you can hack the elevator level and have them go down a level. Honestly blasted a massive laugh when I see them head straight down lmao
!!! Update !!! For those stuck at the rifle after finishing the task. Try using a different playstyle. I tried to do full stealth without any detection for 3 times and still stuck at the very end. So I tried to wipe them all out for the 4th time. Got into full war, which Reed will have a health bar. After clearing all the enemies. Somehow it automatically dismounted me from the rifle.
Is it because of the sniper on the roof to the left? Cause the first time I tried (and failed) he got spotted because there was a sniper I should’ve taken out first
for those who cant leave the rifle, make sure you aim ur crosshair at solomon when you kill the last soldiers, also make sure he loses some health if you go loud. This worked for me on my second try. Also dont rush mechanics, take it slow even if solomon gets spotted. Good Luck folks 👍( also this might not be guaranteed but it worked for me sooo….)
I think this actually works, if your trying to go stealth, when those last two guards are coming wait till they get right infront of reed and the quickly kill them. Don’t shoot before they are close to him and make sure to not let reed out of your sight. It was very frustrating but I got it doing it this way
Fucking thank you. I had gold tier synapse burnout so I could only do one, but apparently I'm a really shitty sniper and could just never do both with stealth. 🥇🏆
I don’t get what CDPR was thinking with this section. They give you a cool talking sniper rifle and punish you for using it. Also the mission itself is buggy as hell. The two guards that pop up at the very end always set off the alert sound, and it’s a crapshoot whether they discover me between shooting the first one and the second. Had to restart and do the whole thing perfectly so many times because there’s such a huge wait between shots. I hate this section.
I can't scan the bridge. It's presented as a static post-scan object (yellow). I've restarted this scenario many times and that's where the quest is broken for me. I'm pretty sure the quest scripts are bugged. Considering how many people are reporting issues, how in the hell did this make it past playtesting.
I encountered this issue on PC and it's caused by a mod I had installed (next-gen environment LODs). Removing it completely solved the issue. I was softlocked here for 2 days thinking it was a game bug LOL but I took an hour to troubleshoot and test all the mods and managed to solve it.
I punched a window and it broke that’s how much this mission pissed me off, first it was the bugged sniper then it’s reed not hiding when v calls out when more guard are coming out of the elevator and the sniper aim sucks so bad I can’t even get a head shot even if I try, “game is fixed” my ass
I hate this part so much... every single try is a different bug, Reed not moving to cover and getting found, the camera not allowing me to back off and return to the gun so freaking annoying
In my game Reed bugs out and gets stuck on the box at 4:56 and gets immediately spotted, restarted from different saves and it kept happening shit’s infuriating
Also i’m not running a netrunner build and have 3 int so i got to the camper to tag guy behind wall but there is not outline of him so i have to make a king shot behind wall so dumb
restarted like 3 times for this shitty mission even manage to get reed near the main elevator but he still get caught.. idk if game difficulty broke this mission im playing on vhard.. im not gna change that just bacuse of this one misison so i just fk it and snipe everything.
The only way I avoided getting caught was by preemptively sniping the enemy sniper and the using the memory wipe quickhack on one of the final two guards so he would not notice his buddy getting killed.
@@gizmodog3594yeah, that's the absolutely shit part. It'd be fine if they let me use my Sande, but nah apparently I can use it while driving but not on a fucking sniper. It's so annoying
To anyone having trouble with guard alert/trying to go full stealth: this part of the mission is buggy as shit so if alerted, just take everyone out. There's no penalty or substantial difference whether this part is stealthed or not. Take it from someone who tried 6 times to do the mission the intended way. Sure hope they do a patch soon for bugs like this mission and honestly just mainly repair the frames per second drops this shit has had ever since the recent updates/dlc. Blows my mind that we can't get consistent 60fps in a fucking dlc area not to mention the other places fps has dropped post 2.0-2.1
@datniggasin3335 by the elevator with the group or closer to you? I stealthed until then and took out that whole group then popped my sandevastan to get everyone else. I had a wild pistol sandy build tho. It's been a while since I did this so I'm having trouble remembering exactly what I did but I do know I fucking re tried this like 6 times You might have to wait till he's by the group or past them, then unmount, run to your left hella quick and start executing with the quickness. If you can make it to him you should be fine covering him. Like I said I spent like an hour just on this part from it being buggy and inconsistent
Dude this same thing happens to me. I’ve restarted this about 7 or 8 times now because I know I want to get perfect stealth but it’s so fucking stupid when reed gets caught right at the very end by the two guards
Idk how you kill him in one shot, I must not be hitting it precise enough bc it never kills him. If he would stop wobbling his noggin around like a drunk it would help lol. This gun sucks on the Xbox, it’s a bit laggy. And it needs to zoom in farther. Nothing I hate in video games more than having to keep doing shit over and over and over. I usually just end up quitting and never playing it again but I like this game too much. This is the only part I’ve ever had this much trouble with in this game! Inching my way through it…
CDPR should be ashamed of themselves for how completely buggy and broken this mission is. Reed stops halfway and wont progress forcing a reload all the way back to the beginning because they wont let you save mid mission....but hey at least we can have our significant other visit our apartments as compensation /fucking S
Yes def least fun mission as it’s totally scripted also don’t take initiative have to wait till reed prompts you for everything i killed the sniper before it was scripted and it still had the take the sniper out box unchecked and reed was noticed by a dead sniper so def a stupid mission

Same. Don't feel like restarting though so guess we'll see what happens
memory wipe and short circuit boom
I hate this part, too scripted gotta repeat again and again for an hour. Worst part is u cant save in this section
Agreed
Foreal fucked up twice and wanted to kill myself makes no sense you cant save honestly
Saved just before taking out initial sniper
@justsurfin5013 that's not what we mean yes you can save before getting on the sniper but once you do no saving and the section is slow and if you wanna do it without fucking up you have to reload that sniper save over and over its terrible
Yep. And these 2 last guys are fucked up. Often they start alarm.
To anybody who’s not really good at getting those headshots, you can go into scan mode, line up, pop 1 shot, then pop out and repeat that process.
Thanks for this cause they changed something so the gun has a 1.5 sec delay between shots and in about .5 sec the guards get alerted
I’m good at it with my pistol but not with this big wonky thing. And having the scan and zoom both on the left side (Xbox) is totally idiotic and awkward. But tbh I never understood you could let those first two guards just walk on by lol. Thought I had to shoot them but that was not working out. Glad I watched this. Thx for the tip, I’ll try it.

Man are the goat I reloaded so many times trying to get this done stealthy ✊🏾
Such a bullshit part of the mission. Worst part is there is no quicksave either. The last two clowns coming in made me have to restart like 5 times.

5 times? Count yourself lucky 🫥

Go into scan mode while you’re looking down the scope. It will stop everything so you can line up a shot, pop out, then pop back in to scan mode and line up your next shot.
You make it look easy while I keep failing due to detection... I had to reload many times just to make it smoothly.
finished this part but then it bugged out. I couldnt leave the rifle!!
That’s literally what I’m dealing with right now. I did this without the video just to get stuck at the rifle. I’m doing the whole thing over again
Bruh my Reed keeps getting spotted near the elevator by the guards instead of the sniper
Same
you have to tell him to slow down
The lack of saving and slow asss fucking reed makes me hate this mission soooo much
By the way, in 4:10, if you have enough hacking skills and act quickly, you can hack the elevator level and have them go down a level. Honestly blasted a massive laugh when I see them head straight down lmao
Where/how do you hack it, I can't see anything to activate and nothing pops up??
!!! Update !!!
For those stuck at the rifle after finishing the task.
Try using a different playstyle. I tried to do full stealth without any detection for 3 times and still stuck at the very end.

Took me a couple hours to get this. Keep getting stuck on the last 2 guards and had to start over and over again
Reed keeps getting caught when he's hiding near the elevator. Apparently this is a glitch 😔
Is it because of the sniper on the roof to the left? Cause the first time I tried (and failed) he got spotted because there was a sniper I should’ve taken out first
Not a glitch...you need to let Reed know when guards are coming towards him
I was watching this for the last to guards and the only difference is the video did it maybe a second or two faster I’m pissed
for those who cant leave the rifle, make sure you aim ur crosshair at solomon when you kill the last soldiers, also make sure he loses some health if you go loud. This worked for me on my second try.

yeah this part of the mission was annoying as hell. felt like an old Nintendo game getting stuck constantly lol
Reed is detected as soon as he exits the elevator and I am completely locked from doing anything.
How to do fix the spotted bugs?
I hate this fucking missin. Restarted about 7 times. Havent gone back to it since.
Doesnt even work properly.
My game bugged out. He keeps getting detected even when he shouldn’t. It really lit my fuse and put a whole damper on the mission.
If it helps, I have a high Ram cyber deck and I just synaps burned-out those last two guys. Que them both if you can.
ty
Fucking thank you. I had gold tier synapse burnout so I could only do one, but apparently I'm a really shitty sniper and could just never do both with stealth. 🥇🏆
I used Overclock & 2 System Collapses on the last 2 guys 😂
Tried everything on the last 2 guys and nothing works :(

Useful tip: use Sandevistan and you can shoot quick
I used the bridge and then used all distration and sonic shocks to let Reed through. Killed the snipper and the last 2 guards with contagion
What a stupid mission, i was doing well i just missed a shot on the last dude and that alerted the entire base because reed just started blasting
fun fact, the guy behnd the wall thnng u can only see with the camera. u can hack behind him and v say it not nessacery to kill him and reed walk away

Nice, just went thru myself and miissed last patrol. Need to go back and try agsin. Also love the variety of missions in this game

This section of the mission is terrible I agree, but that doesn’t make the game bad. Just this section.
@@its_spxder7906not about getting gud when the game's bugged, bud
@@animegamergeek1427 I know I was just joking, haven’t played the mission myself so it could very well just be shit design
@@its_spxder7906 it is annoying in a way. After about 4, or 5, tries, I just sniped my way at the end 😂
Here I am watching this video while all the guards are shooting at reed in my game, he is really dedicated to ruining the mission
I was ready to focus my controller, thank you so much
Thank you for the video. The Generator for the scanner didn‘t light up for me so I didn‘t know what to do.
People keep saying you can hack the elevator that drops the extra 3 guards, how the hell do you do that?

Also i’m not running a netrunner build and have 3 int so i got to the camper to tag guy behind wall but there is not outline of him so i have to make a king shot behind wall so dumb
For me, it glitched, where reed, just know glitches on to a beam just reset save fixed it
It won’t let me scan threats on the floor. Help. Thanks.
I made it to the end but when it says tag the guard through camera and then snipe then they weren’t highlighted for me when I went back to sniper

Does perfecting this get any bonus?

oh almost forgot Reed is the worst secret agent alive
bro i cant report anything to reed, like there is no dialogue at all
