[. . . ] Equip a firearm from inventory, use to aim the crosshair at the light source and pull to fire a shot and destroy it. x1 C x C HIDING IN THE CLOSET Stand in front of the closet and press A to enter it. Press A when inside the closet to exit. TOOLS of the TRADE Tools are the only things in the professional's life that can be truly relied upon. The professional studies and masters each of his tools so that he can use the correct application on every contract -- guaranteeing anonymity and minimum exposure in the field. FIREARMS, SITUATIONAL & EQUIPMENT DISTRACTION Using a range of distraction techniques, the professional gains extra time on a contract and access to high security areas. PISTOLS & HANDGUNS The professional opts for the pistol and handgun for their power and size. Pistols and handguns are easily concealed, and once silenced become a highly effective means of eliminating the mark. The professional uses these weapons only in close proximity to the mark, since they offer limited clip capacity and accuracy over long distances. COINS & THROWN ITEMS The professional will often throw an item such as a coin into a guarded area to force security to investigate the created distraction. The professional often uses these techniques to lessen civilian and security casualties, or to enable an undetected passage into high security areas. Select a coin from inventory (or equip another small item to throw) then click and hold to prepare to throw. Use to aim the crosshair, then release to throw the item. ASSAULT RIFLES The professional opts for assault rifles as an option only when cornered or in clutch situations. The size and noise of the assault rifle makes it very difficult to conceal. In its favor, the assault rifle offers a range of 300m but must be used with single shot and burst fire to afford any kind of accuracy. L L C 14 SUB-MACHINE GUNS The sub-machine gun offers the professional a high rate of fire and lightweight maneuverability when in close proximity to the mark. The sub-machine gun is the least subtle choice when on a job and doesn't offer the accuracy or anonymity of a silenced weapon. 15 RIGGING BOMBS An explosive device placed on the fixing point of a chandelier not only eliminates the mark successfully, but is also initially perceived as an accident, ensuring your smooth exit from the scene. There are other ways a professional can choreograph a hit to be perceived as "accidental. " See ENVIRONMENTALIST below for an example. SHOTGUNS The shotgun is devastating in close quarters but makes a lot of noise!The professional will only resort to using this type of weapon when backed into a corner or as a last resort. THE FALL The professional looks for opportunistic suspended items that could demolish a mark. These can be brought crashing down with clever use of explosives, or by shooting glass or fixture points using a high-powered weapon such as a sniper rifle. SNIPER RIFLES The professional's choice, the sniper rifle is the most powerful and accurate means of eliminating the mark. This weapon can be silenced and used long distance from a safe vantage point, then broken down into a concealed briefcase. The sniper rifle is the favorite weapon of the professional and, when mastered, is the deadliest ally. ENVIRONMENTALIST The professional has an eye for ingenious ways of dressing a hit as an accident. For example, when in a kitchen, the professional notices the gas burner and its explosive potential. He weighs every opportunity and makes the hit look like a freak accident whenever possible. BINOCULARS The professional's best tool for surveillance work. Binoculars provide an excellent tool for surveying and spying on the mark's behavioral patterns from safe distances. MISSION BRIEFING The professional carries the mission briefing throughout the contract so that he can refer to objectives and mark information at will and leave nothing to chance. REMOTE BOMBS The remote bomb is another useful tool which the professional can plant in a mark's room and then detonate from a safe distance. The professional uses explosives intelligently and strategically to eliminate the mark. MAPS Detailed maps and intelligence are paramount to the success of a contract. The professional uses maps as his main navigational means. The map's attention to detail ensures that he never gets lost and that detailed intelligence on guards, security and the mark's location are always at his fingertips.
