Perfect Dark/dataDyne Central - Defection

=Agent Walkthrough=

Objectives:
 * 1) Gain entrance to laboratory

Roof
You are at the top of the Lucerne Tower, dataDyne's headquarters. When you are done admiring the scene, look below for a guard. Use any method you wish to take him out. Now enter the door into the maintenance room.

Maintenance room
Enter the building via the roof door and continue until you see a guard. If you shoot him, he will surrender. Do what you want with him. You can try out disarm here (unarmed secondary function). Now remember that you can interact with the environment by pressing the action button. There is a light switch in this room, but it is recommended that you don't press it now, because making the whole area dark when you don't have night vision is not a good idea.

Instead, open the nearby door and head down. Don't go down too fast, because a guard might be here.

Third office floor
This floor isn't too large. It contains a couple guards, which you can take out. In the double doors here is Cassandra's office. You don't need to go in here (that's for a later difficulty) but if you do, punch them out before Cassandra sets off the alarm.

You can now head directly to the ground floor from the elevator, or explore a bit more. Both the stairs and the elevator give access to the other office floors.

First and second office floors
Nothing special here, but there are many rooms. These floors become important in a later level.

Ground floor
Before reaching the ground floor, crouch and stay at the back of the elevator, so the guards don't spot you. The music will pick up now. Rather than walk down the stairs into the presence of guards, shoot the glass in front of the elevator. You should be able to kill the couple guards at the front door. Circle the floor, killing anyone else who is in your way.

Head through the door on the bottom (left side if coming down the stairs). Take out all the guards here; it would be handy to use an automatic weapon. It appears to be a dead end, but one of the walls nearby slides open to reveal a lift. Enter it.

Objective Complete: Gain entrance to laboratory

=Special Agent Walkthrough=

Objectives:
 * 1) Disable internal security hub
 * 2) Obtain keycode necklace
 * 3) Disable external comms hub
 * 4) Gain entrance to laboratory

If you weren't prepared for this level, you might have set off an alarm.

That's right, there are now cameras in this level. Each camera can be taken out in a couple pistol shots. If you are in sight of a camera for about 2 seconds, it will set off an alarm, which will cause more guards to appear.

Roof
From the start, deal with the guard. There is a camera around here. You can either sneak past it or shoot it. Enter the maintenance room.

Maintenance room
As on Agent, draw down the guard and he will surrender. Do what you want. Be careful of a security camera in here. Now notice that the objectives are different for Special Agent. To disable the security system, select ECM Mine and throw it on the screen in the back of this room (which is away from the door). Crouch and go up to it so you don't miss.

Objective Complete: Disable internal security hub

Now go downstairs.

Third office floor
Take out all the guards here. Head into Cassandra's office (the double doors). Knock out Cassandra and claim her keycode necklace.

Objective Complete: Obtain keycode necklace

You can now head directly to the ground floor from the elevator, or explore a bit more. Both the stairs and the elevator give access to the other office floors.

First and second office floors
Nothing special here, but there are many rooms. These floors become important in a later level.

Ground floor
Before reaching the ground floor, crouch and stay at the back of the elevator, so the guards don't spot you. As on Agent, you will want to shoot the glass in front, take out the guards, and fall down here. Circle around, carefully taking out the guards on this floor.

Now access the Comms room with the keycode necklace, the door which does not lead to the lift. Kill all the guards here, and plant an ECM Mine on the small screen on the wall.

Objective Complete: Disable external comms hub

Enter the door leading to the lift. Kill everyone here, preferably with an automatic. You can use the walls for shelter. When everyone is dead, approach the wall which opens up to reveal the lift. Enter it.

Roof
One little note: There's an extra camera below and to the right of where you start.

Take out the guard, and the cameras if you wish. Remember to conserve ammo since there is less on Perfect Agent. Enter the door.

Maintenance room
Take out the guard here, and put an ECM Mine on the screen in the back of the room here, like on Special Agent. This shuts off security but it will be re-enabled after a minute.

Objective Complete: Disable internal security hub

Third office floor
Take out the guards here, carefully as it is Perfect Agent. Now the doors to Cassandra's office is locked. However, where the guard near the table was, there is a switch on the table. Press it to unlock the door. Enter the office and punch out Cassandra to claim the keycode necklace.

Objective Complete: Obtain keycode necklace

Take the stairs to the second office floor.

Second office floor
Kill the enemies here, as it prevents them from interfering with the next part. Destroy the camera as well. Notice the room at the end with a couple computers. This will be important. For now, go down to the first office floor.

First office floor
Kill whomever comes across your way. Look for a narrow hallway with windows on one side and doors on the other. When you approach one of the doors, a conversation will pop up with a worker, who says he will delete the files on the computer. He will then set out. You don't have to let him see you, but if you do, he will run towards the elevators and unlock a room which has the Laptop Gun.

Anyway, get close to him to force him to use the computers. He will take the elevator up to the second office floor.

Second office floor
Follow him into the computer room. Make sure you are unarmed or have pistol armed. He will try to log on to the computer. When he says "Right, I'm in", punch him or else he will delete the files and fail the mission. Use the Data Uplink on the computer to download the files.

Objective Complete: Download project files

Now go to the ground floor via the elevators.

Ground floor
As before, stay back in the elevator and crouch as it goes down, so no one sees you. Shoot the glass in front and kill the guards here. Drop down and kill everyone. You should use an automatic for this.

Open up the Comms room and kill everyone here, carefully. Put an ECM Mine on the wall screen.

Objective Complete: Disable external comms hub

Enter the door leading to the lift. Kill everyone here, using the walls for shelter. There are many guards here. Do not engage them yourself; let them come to you. When everyone is dead, approach the wall which opens up to reveal the lift. Enter it.
