Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 guide contains a thorough walkthrough of the main single player campaign. Each level was completed on the highest difficulty setting, so the included hints will help you complete the game in the quietest way possible. Additionally the guide includes descriptions and locations of all the secrets found in each mission - small pieces of advice can be found in the main part of the guide, while given chapters include an illustrated location.
The guide consists of the following elements:
Markings in the guide:
Enemies have been marked as brown.
Square brackets, for example [120m], contain the distance to a given enemy - it's an approximate distance which might depend on your current position, though in most cases locations are forced upon you, so the differences shouldn't be too large. Wind power wasn't included, as it's prone to change.

The game offers three difficulty levels: easy, medium and expert. If you're a fan of achievements, there's one for each difficulty, though you will gain all of them for at once for the highest one. The biggest difference between the difficulty levels is the red marker which helps in shooting, as it gives you a hint as to where the bullet will hit.
Easy level - enemies' reaction time is the slowest, giving you much time to correct your shot. The number if hints regarding tactic and gameplay is the largest during the game. A red dot will be displayed on the screen, showing where the bullet will hit. Additionally, locations of all the enemies will be displayed on the mini-map.
Medium level - a balanced gameplay in which enemies' reactions are faster and more aggressive. All hints from the easy level are retained, including the red dot showing where the bullet will hit and locations of enemies on the mini-map.
Expert level - enemies react very fast and hints received during the game are limited. The dot showing where the bullet will hit is disabled, forcing you to consider the strength and direction of the wind and distance to the target. The mini-map doesn't include locations of enemies.
If you decide to play on the highest difficulty level, the gameplay will be strongly affected by the distance from the target and the wind. It's worth to remember that when you're at a higher place than your enemy, the correction will be smaller and higher in the opposite situation, when your enemy is inside a tower or another building.
There are three pieces of importation above the scope - the distance, wind strength and the current zoom level. The wind direction is determined by the white gauge below the information. If the gauge is filled to the left of the centre - you have to pull the crosshair to the right. If, on the other hand, the gauge fills the right side - place the crosshair to the left of your victim. It's worth mentioning that the correction should be lower on smaller distance.
There aren't many different sniper rifles in the game, though each has a slightly different scope. With time, you should learn to determine distance based on the size of enemies in comparison with the scales and current zoom.
After the game begins, wait for you companion - Diaz - to eliminate the first enemy, swim and climb onto the platform. Keep going along the path until you reach the first shooting position surrounded by sand bags. Crouch and listen carefully to what your companion says. Wait for the first enemy visible in the distance to move to the right and stop - that will be the right time to shoot him [86m]. Afterwards turn on thermovision so that you can notice the second soldier inside the shed [88m] - get rid of him, the bullet will easily penetrate wood.
SECRET 1/4: Inside the shed.
Jump down and head onwards. Get across the small pond and you should come across two enemies who at first Diaz will decide to shoot in a synchronized manner, however you shouldn't pull the trigger! More soldiers will soon join the two and your companion will decide to just get past them without killing anyone.
Head to the left and wait under the bridge for the group of enemies to walk away. Head out of your hideout and move onwards to activate a cutscene during which you will hide in the bushes and wait for the boat to sail away. After getting on the land, follow the path to a small camp with two soldiers beside a campfire - approach the one on the right and assassinate him. Diaz will take care of the second one.
Head into the bushes on the right and once again listen to your partner's instructions. Wait for the boat to pass by and take care of the soldier on the bridge [40m], follow with the enemy on the dock [130m].
The next target is in motion - wait a bit to see where he goes. Around the middle of the path to the shore he will stop, giving you a chance to shoot [93m]. Two soldiers will be left on the left side in the distance - you will eliminate them simultaneously with Diaz. It doesn't matter who you choose [121m].
After clearing the area, stand up and run across the bridge. In the shed you will find a health pack and some ammunition to replenish your supplies. Make a few steps in the water and you will be stopped again - look at the platform on the right, with two soldiers on it. You have to eliminate the one on the right [56m].
Move onwards, under the bridge. Slowly follow your companion until you reach the shore - wait for one of the soldiers to pass by and climb onto the platform. An enemy will be standing on your path - kill him silently with your knife. Jump off the ledge and run into the cave.
SECRET 2/4 - On the crate on the right, beside the stairs.
After a short travel to the plane wreck, jump inside and head to its end. Use the binoculars to take a look at the targets pointed by Diaz. The two soldiers by the boat come first - eliminate the one by the engine [116m] and afterwards the one by the front [96m].
Your next target is a sniper lurking at the upper floor of the highest building opposite to your position [329m].
Wait for the soldiers beside the building on the left to get behind the left wall (where he cannot be seen by the others) and eliminate him [300m].
Two soldiers by the main building are your last targets. Locate the radio on the right side and shoot it [340m] to make the first soldier come check what happened - shoot him when he does [340m]. Also don't forget about the last enemy standing beside the barrier[313m].
After eliminating the last enemy, the plane will crash - quickly swim to the surface and follow Diaz. Wait a bit for the patrol boat to move away and head towards the village. Your companion will notice two enemies standing by the building - try to kill them both with a single shot [50m]. One of them will be moving, so you have to get the timing right.
Carefully move onwards, climbing onto the footbridge. Inside the room on the left you will find the spot where you have to plant the C4. Afterwards jump off the bridge on the other side, right beside Diaz, and move onwards with him. After getting to the other side of the village, detonate the charge. Enemies will rush towards the explosion. Quickly run out of the water and follow Diaz.
SECRET 3/4 - In the corner of the upper floor room.
You will reach rail tracks and should notice a walking soldier [40m]. Eliminate him and head along the rails to reach two more enemies [48m]. Take care of one of them - Diaz will eliminate the other.
After reaching the fork in the road, choose the path going up, as there's a bunch of enemies just a bit further. At the vantage point, move to the edge and shoot the truck's gas tank [70m]. The explosion will kill everyone around.
Run further between the bushes, leaving the patrol by pass by alone. A bit further you will come across a single enemy facing the other direction [33m].
After reaching the next stop, you will have to start by eliminating the enemy sniper on the bell tower [650m]. Aim very carefully, but also keep in mind that he won't alarm anyone in case you fail.
You will then have to get rid of five enemies. The order in which you do it might have a very big significance. Above all, leave the two soldiers standing beside each other for the end. It's best to begin with the soldier walking on the left [115m], the enemy walking on the truck can be the next one [165m] - it's best to wait for him to be on the left side, as far away from the others as possible. The next one in line should be the soldier furthest to the right, right before the truck [82m]. In the end you will have to kill the two guards standing beside each other - unfortunately Diaz won't help you, so you have to eliminate them both fast [80m].
Clear the area and move onwards with Diaz. After reaching the pond, you companion will leave you on your own. Enter the water and swim towards the underground passage. At some point a boat will appear on the horizon - quickly dive to stay undetected. Keep moving towards the passage until you reach the shore.
Assassinate the soldier sitting by the campfire, head out of the water and slowly move to the cave exit guarded by another soldier - you can kill him using your sniper rifle [53m] or knife.
Run onwards along the path until you reach the church tower. There's no one inside, so you don't have to sneak - quickly run onto the tower.
SECRET 4/4 - in the upper part of the church.
Your objective is to provide cover for the assault team - you will have to eliminate the marked targets. Wait for the first soldier to reach the end of the footbridge and eliminate him [300m].
Afterwards come the two enemies by the house on the shore. Wait for one of them to head to the end of the bridge, therefore turning his back on the other one - eliminate both of them [330m] and [430m]. Soon afterwards another enemy will appear on the balcony [410m].
You will be informed of a sniper on the tower [488m] - before you are able to push the trigger, a helicopter will appear. Wait for it to fly away as otherwise you will fail the mission.
Take care of the three enemies on the train platform - it doesn't matter who you start with. You can even try to perform a double kill when both enemies on the platform are in proper positions [440m-450m]. Soon afterwards two more soldiers will appear on the platform - eliminate them before they can activate the alarm [495m] and [553m].
This time you will have to clear the area for Diaz - point your scope maximally to the left and you should see two enemies on the platform. Kill the one on the bridge, leaving the other one for your companion.
A bit to the right you should see three more enemies - wait for two of them to stand in one line and kill them both with one shot [350m].
The first of the two next soldiers is moving - wait for him to stand by the fuse box and get rid of him [455m], without forgetting about the second one inside the building [475m]. Soon after you kill him, one of the mercenaries will attack Diaz - quickly help your companion by sending the enemy to hell [340m].
The last stage involves clearing the radio station area [720m] - you can't hope to eliminate your targets silently, so just start exterminating enemies. The assault team will join in soon afterwards. The mission will end with the end of the fight.
You will spend a majority of this mission wearing night-vision goggles - activate them with the proper button and head onwards following the only possible path. You will reach the first soldier speaking on the phone, you can eliminate him easily by sneaking onto him from behind.
Head further down the road until you come across three more bandits. If you decide to finish them off silently, wait for the walking soldier to turn around and kill the enemy by the crate.
Immediately start going towards the next standing enemy and finish him off. The last one to kill will be the patrolling soldier who will stop by the bridge - it's best to kill him with the silenced pistol, as you might not get to him in time before he turns around.
Cross the bridge and you will reach a vantage point - get rid of the sniper there and take the position.
SECRET 1/4 - On a crate on a platform above you, right after crossing the bridge.
Your task is locating the prisoner - start sweeping the area with the scope. Zoom in and take a look at the restaurant, yacht and the landing zone until you find the place where he's being held - a big villa with glass walls.
You will have to provide cover for the assault team consisting of two teams. Keep in mind the rather big distance and strong wind. Your first target will be the sniper guarding the staircase [940m] who's walking along the balcony of the restaurant.
Quickly move your scope to the left, onto the terrace of one of the building. Diaz will ask you to eliminate the walking soldier [860m] in a synchronized manner - try to shoot in accordance with the countdown.
Your next targets are two snipers in the westernmost part - once again point the scope a bit to the left to notice the two shooters [1290m] and [1395m].
Return to the yacht - you need to eliminate two thugs, one on the upper part of the yacht [860m] and the second on the terrace of the building on the right [960m].
Before Diaz moves on, you have to eliminate the guard standing on the stern of the boat [815m].
The landing zone comes next. Beside it you will find three mercenaries. It's worth to try killing two of them with one shot when they stand in one line [1060m]. With them killed, there will be only one left, directly on the landing zone between the crates [1110m]. That's however not all - soon afterwards a helicopter pilot [1120m] will appear. Try eliminating him as fast as possible.
One of the last obstacles on the path of the assault team will be a sniper lurking on the balcony of the glass wall villa [1250m].
Two talking soldiers will enter the courtyard [1120m] - just eliminate one of them and your companions will take care of the other.
In the corridor of the villa there's a mercenary [1260m] - quickly eliminate him, before he can alarm anyone.
Time for the assault - at first it's good to lure out as many enemies as possible into a trap. Use the big gas tank beside the landing zone to make some noise [1160m].
When the fight breaks out, try to provide cover for the team by eliminating the enemies beside the windows in the villa. Soon enough the assault team should reach the prisoner, who unfortunately will be held at gunpoint. Aim at the terrace of the villa, there the mercenary will soon appear - take him out [1320m].
After the operation ends, head further to the left, deeper into the cave. You will reach a ramp leading to a wooden construction with a mercenary walking on it. Eliminate him silently and just as quietly head onwards, trying not to draw the attention of four enemies by the campfire below.
You will reach a waterfall guarded by two mercenaries. One of them is almost directly opposite to your position - he's walking between the wooden structure [115m].
Before moving onwards, you have to eliminate the second opponent who's hiding between the rocks on the right side [60m].
Head onto the wooden construction and go deeper into the cave. You will come across three enemies, out of which two will be talking nearby each other. The best solution is jumping into the water and swimming around them. After reaching the other side, one of the guards will decide to move and cross your path - before killing him, eliminate the guard on the right side [30m]. Now you can easily and silently get rid of the mercenary by the barrier.
After leaving the cave, head up the stairs onto the roof of the building on the left - you will come across an enemy speaking on the phone there. Try to eliminate him silently. Before leaving this area, take care of the sniper walking on the nearby roof [90m].
Head towards the second building and go up the stairs.
SECRET 2/4 - Below the stairs in the main hall.
On the balcony you will come across a single mercenary - get rid of him silently. You will reach a vantage point on the terrace of the villa.
Start eliminating the enemies with the single walking sniper [150m].
There are three more mercenaries stationed in front of the mansion. It's worth to begin with the one by the car, beside the stairs - no one else can see him [65m].
Afterwards take care of the enemy in the car [135m], leaving the mercenary on the left, between the rocks, for the end [100m].
After clearing the area, jump to the lower floor and head up the stairs, following the designated path. When you reach the fork, head up to come across another vantage point inside a ruined house. Silently eliminate the sniper waiting there and take the sniping position.
Start off by eliminating the sniper walking on the terrace of the house [190m].
The second enemy who you have to eliminate is the mercenary on the courtyard - wait for him to reach the wall [150m].
The last shot is the most important - it would be good to perform a double kill - precisely aim at the mercenaries by the car [80m].
After clearing the mansions, leave your vantage point, head out of the destroyed house and head right, down the path.
SECRET 3/4 - On the cupboard on the ground floor of the mansion.
Regardless of how quietly you move, some birds will fly off, drawing the attention of three mercenaries - eliminate them before they get you.
As you leave the cave, you should note the first building on the way to the observatory. Wait for the sniper on the roof of the building on the right to be maximally to the right and eliminate him [65m].
Getting rid of him will let you get past four other mercenaries in this area unnoticed - very slowly move along the left side while crouching and sticking to the bushes. When you return onto the path, move onwards towards the observatory. Eventually you will be informed of an incoming helicopter - wait in the bushes for it to fly above you.
When you reach the observatory, you will note a big number of enemies - kill the mercenary standing alone on the right, thanks to which you will lure three other enemies to him. Use the chance and shoot the grenade by the belt of one of the enemies, therefore killing everyone around.
SECRET 4/4 - On a crate inside the observatory.
After clearing the area, head to the top of the observatory from where you will have a better view of the area. Follow Diaz's hints and eliminate one of the enemies walking around the docks [1360m].
Two more targets can be found on the yacht - firstly eliminate the observers and afterwards destroy the searchlights. You will have to perform two rather hard long-distance shots [1280m] and [1330m]. Soon after destroying the second source of light, a marauder [1310m] will get onboard - eliminate him quickly before he notices the bodies.
Point your scope to the left, onto the beach. Eliminate the first mercenary who's standing idly by one of the buildings [1100m] and quickly afterwards another one who shows up a bit closer, beside the second building [830m].
Diaz will point you further targets on the pier - two talking guard [1125m]. Take care of one of them, while your companion kills the other one. Afterwards destroy two light sources on the pier [1130m] and [1140m], so that the corpses don't draw too much attention.
The last two enemies who you have to kill rather silently can be found to the left of the pier [1110m] and on the stairs [1150m].
The assault team waits for you sign - hit the fuse box [1300m] to blind the enemy. It's also worth to aid your companions with additional fire, eliminating whatever you can. After the cutscene you will have to provide cover for you team until another cutscene starts.
After beginning on the beach, head to the jungle along the only possible path. After a rather long walk, you will reach a fork in the road - head right to the vantage point from where you will have to clear out the beach house. Firstly take care of the soldier on the bridge on the right side [350m]. Wait for the enemy walking on the balcony around the upper floor of the building is at the back, so that he cannot see anything. Afterwards eliminate the mentioned sniper [300m] - wait for him to reach the right side, where he stands for a bit.
Wait for the patrolling soldier to lose eye contact with the enemy standing by the boats and eliminate him [250m]. Your second target should be the guard standing right by the house on the ground floor [290m], leave the walking soldiers for the end [200m].
SECRET 1/4 - Between the rocks, on the shore behind the house.
After clearing the house, stand up and follow the path further. At some point you should see a small wooden construction in the distance, beside which a single enemy is walking [85m].
Keep going along the path, past the house you just cleared.
SECRET 1/4 - Between the rocks at the back of the building.
During a rather long run you will pass by a distant vehicle and a small camp on the right. When you reach a fork in the road, follow the path leading up.
Eventually you will reach the next location guarded by four enemies. First off take care of the sniper [135m] lying on a distant platform. The next one should be the soldier standing on the left side of the ruined building [65m].
Afterwards you will have to wait a bit for one of the patrolling soldiers to stop for a moment to the left of the building [45m]. Get rid of the enemy standing by the passage quickly [40m], leaving only the last walking enemy to be taken care of.
After clearing the area, head right between the rocks, towards a fence which you have to jump over - the main path is well guarded.
Silently eliminate one enemy who's standing between the bushes and go up the stairs onto the platform. Cross the footbridge onto the hill, where the leaves will provide you with a cover from enemy sight.
The further road is blocked by a single enemy walking between the crates - wait for him to be as far from the barrier as possible and eliminate him [30m].
Jump down and move onwards while looking out for two guards - firstly take care of the one who is moving [30m] and then the one facing the other direction [35m]. Head to the pile of crates and climb up.
You will reach a vantage point which will provide you with a good view of the two building on the shore. Your main targets are the three guards on the building above. Wait for the walking guard [155m] to turn around far away from the sniper and eliminate him. Your second target should be the sniper lying nearby [135m], leaving the soldier standing below for the end [130m].
Once you're done, head to the right and jump off the cliff into the water. Quickly swim to the surface, from where you will have a good view of the second lower house. Start off by eliminating the soldier on the upper floor - he's alone [90m]. Afterwards wait for the walking enemy to be in line with his companion - kill them both [90m].
In the end, get rid of the guard who's standing on the bridge on the right [85m]. After dealing with him, jump into the water and swim towards the house. You can get inside through the middle part which you have to reach underwater.
SECRET 2/4 - On a crate on the upper floor of the building.
Follow the path up and eventually you will reach the lower cable car station.
SECRET 3/4 - On a table inside the control room by the cable car station.
Enter the car and press the button to start going up. Aim at the right side of the upper station, as at some point a single enemy will appear there. Should you not kill him, he will probably raise the alarm.
Leave the car and head to the wall with a hole on the left. It will provide you with a great view of the area. Your targets are five guards. Start eliminating them with the sniper walking in the distance on the right [140m]. The next one in line is the next sniper who's lying on the left, also on the upper floor on the building [155m]. Your third target should be the closest guard standing by the small building [55m].
End the extermination by eliminating the last enemy right below the left sniper's position [115m].
SECRET 4/4 - In the corner of the building behind the cable car station.
Run through the next part of the jungle and you should reach another vantage point. A cutscene will activate, showing you the package and you companions. You will decide to act against the instructions and save your companion. You don't have much time to shoot [380m].
You will have to protect your companion and eliminate all the enemies who cross his path. After eliminating the first few, one of the enemies will aim at Diaz - quickly kill him [275m].
When your companion enters the building, quickly stand up and run towards the second vantage point from where you will be able to continue eliminating the enemies. Try to observe the area of the building, as there are enemy troops on the roofs.
When Diaz takes care of the vehicle, a cutscene will start. After regaining control, quickly run after your companion until another cutscene will activate, therefore ending the mission.
After landing and gaining control over your character, start following Maddox. Soon enough you will have to drop to the ground and hide in the bushes at the edge of the road. You should see a tank in the distance - eliminate the soldier at the front [150m] and afterwards take care of the second opponent who's digging in the engine [150m].
Run down and go along the rails to the crate. In the window of the building in the distance you will see your next target - a soldier walking around the room [80m]. Run after Maddox to the house and wait for him to deal with the enemy inside.
SECRET 1/4 - On the desk in the first room.
Head outside and stop by the wreck. Three more targets are in front of you - firstly kill the soldier walking on the left side of the building [60m]. Afterwards take care of the one with the radio on the right [40m] (he might be covered by a pillar). The soldier inside the building should be your last target - an accurate shot through the window should do the trick [45m].
Follow your companion further along the rails. At some point you will hear an incoming patrol - quickly go prone and move under the train car. Very slowly move onwards, stopping when Maddox gives the signal.
When the patrol passes by and your companion kills one of the enemies, moves further to the bridge. The further path will also consist mainly of sneaking because of the large amount of enemies. Run down the stairs and turn left.
After getting past all the enemies, you will reach a train station. There are two soldiers here, who you should eliminate silently.
SECRET 2/4 - On the bench on the train station.
Head towards the smoky area - the vehicle behind you will eventually fall down and block the path. In front of you on the other hand, there are a few enemies - firstly kill the sniper lurking on the roof of the building [140m].
Afterwards try to perform a double kill on the two soldiers on the right [80m]. The last one to take care of will be the single enemy standing on the left [70m].
Follow Maddox and you will reach a large fight taking place on a big square. Your objective will be taking care of the AA guns crew, planting C4 and detonating them. The first gun can be found nearby your current position, so stay behind the wall and eliminate the enemies from there. It would also be good to try and eliminate the operators with a single shot, as you have to kill four enemies in total. After killing all of them, plant the C4, move away to a safe distance and blow up the charge.
The second gun will be bombed by and incoming plane as you move closer to it, so that leaves one less for you. Head towards the third one - one again take care of four enemies, plant the C4 and detonate it.
SECRET 3/4 - Inside the bus wreck.
After blowing up the last gun, you will be joined by Maddox - follow him to the underground passage. Soon enough you should hear steps - quickly hide in the small room on the right.
SECRET 4/4 - On a table in the corridor.
Unfortunately you will be sniffed by a dog - quickly run from there following Maddox. After reaching the next corridor, your partner will ask you to cover him while be plant the explosives. Try not to stand in the middle of the corridor, as you might be killed yourself. After he plant the C4 and moves away he will detonate it and you will be able to head out of the underground passage to end the mission.
As the mission begins, run after Marinov to the nearby building. Right behind the corner, wait a bit for the guards to stop talking and when Maddox gives the order - lean out and take out the soldier in the neighbouring room.
Move onwards and eliminate another soldier with a knife or silenced pistol on your way. After reaching the next room, sneak to yet another enemy and kill him as well.
After reaching the mezzanine, you will see an enemy in the next room. Don't kill him, instead head to the upper floor - from there you will be able to easily kill the enemy on the upper floor. Use a silenced pistol to do it quietly.
Head to the lower floor and follow Marinov to the next floor.
SECRET 1/4 - In the corner on the other side of the room on the floor where Marinov suggests heading one floor higher.
Eventually you will reach the third floor - silently kill the guard by the window and a cutscene will activate.
You need to make four photos - move the camera across the whole area and search for places where the markers turns green.
After you're done taking photos, head further with Marinov and wait for the tank to drive away behind a car wreck. Run further through the gate to the destroyed bus. When your partner unlocks the further passage, silently take out the closer soldier - Maddox will take care of the other one.
Run up the stairs in front of you and hide behind the dumpster. After the explosion you will have to get rid of a single enemy [100m] who will start running in your direction.
Run further while eliminating a patrolling guard beside a billboard on your way. After completing the orders, follow Marinov and Maddox into the building. At this point you should use the night-vision goggles. In the corridor you will come across an enemy tinkering with a fuse box - eliminate him silently.
After reaching the surface, Marinov will decide to speak with the two soldiers. When things start taking a bad course and one of them starts aiming at you companion, quickly kill him.
Reinforcements will soon arrive - it's a good idea to stand on a higher position on the ruins on the left side. You need to eliminate five soldiers and two sniper - keep an eye on the right side, as the enemy is likely to try approaching as close as possible. You might have some problems with locating the sniper because of the smoke.
SECRET 2/4 - On a shelf in the building to the right of the helicopter.
With the area clear, speak to Marinov and head together to the underground garage.
After getting there, wait for the patrolling soldier in front of you to move to the right - use that chance and quickly go left while staying close to the wall.
Continue onwards while staying in the shadows until you reach a soldier blocking the road. Wait for the patrolling soldier on the right to turn around and eliminate the obstacle silently.
The further path to the fuse box is clear - destroy it to turn off the light and immediately put on your might-vision goggles. Listen to the hints given by Maddox and quickly crawl beneath the nearby truck to avoid getting detected by the incoming guards.
Continue moving along the wall and you will come across a passage blocked by an enemy. Kill him silently and run out of the garage with your companions.
SECRET 3/4 - By the dumpster on the right, beside the park entrance.
Stop right beside the park entrance and eliminate the sniper lurking on the opposite building, four floors higher [530m].
Move a bit deeper and you will see another sniper - this time on the roof of the building on the right [150m].
Run onwards until you run down a few steps - immediately go prone, as there's another sniper in front of you. He's sitting on a balcony on the third floor from the top [175m].
Soldiers will show up on the square - you will have to fight them at a rather small distance, so have a silenced pistol ready in case an enemy runs to the stairs. After clearing the area, as you enter the square, you will be immediately attacked by another sniper from the balcony in the building on the right, second floor from the top [150m].
As you exit the square, Marinov will be shot - eliminate the sniper sitting on a roof of the building in the distance [150m].
In the further part of the park you will come across a big group of enemies - it's a good choice to eliminate them silently. For that, follow Maddox and jump off the wall onto the square. Stick to the wall and slowly move onwards.
Enter the small room in silently take care of the soldier inside. Carefully head to the stairs which will take you to a ruined building. Eliminate one of the soldiers in the distance [50m] - your partner will kill the other one.
Cross the ruins to the building and follow Marinov to the upper floor.
SECRET 4/4 - On a table on the floor on which you stop.
Take a look around the courtyard in the distance and you should see Vladic. Right as you take out your rifle, Maddox will save your life.
Before getting to Vladic himself, you will have to eliminate his bodyguards - begin with the three snipers. Begin with the one on the top floor, in the window on the right [350m]. The second is on the roof of the building on the right [350m]. The third lurks on the left, on a rather distant building [380m].
Afterwards eliminate the two enemies on the street - they're in an open area, so you shouldn't have problems. Now it's time for Vladic - he can be found inside the building, in the only window in the left part of the building which isn't boarded up [345m] - he might be hard to notice because of the tree in the way.
It's time for an immediate evacuation - quickly follow Maddox to the ruined building, where you will be able to take cover behind windows. On the square in front of you there will be five enemies who you will have to kill [100m] - after you do that, a cutscene ending the mission will begin.
Grab the pistol from the crate in front of you - there are only four bullets in the clip, so you will have to play very carefully. Go up the stairs and through the door - you should note a big group of soldiers who you should avoid by quietly getting to the stairs leading onto the upper floor.
Silently (to save ammo) eliminate the soldier who's talking on the radio and head to the open door - a cutscene will play during which you will be attacked by an enemy sniper but eventually manage to save yourself.
You need to get two rooms further while avoiding the enemy sniper's bullets. Use the rooms on opposite sides of the room, walking below planks to get further.
You will reach a room in which you will find a sniper rifle - pick it up and slowly move to the corridor, eliminating the sniper who was attacking you all the time [115m].
SECRET 1/4 - On a table in the room with the rifle.
Head back to the previous room and go through the next door - at some point the ceiling will fall down, but luckily it won't do you any harm. Enter the staircase and wait for the soldiers to stop walking and silently eliminate the one standing on the mezzanine.
Go down the stairs and you will reach a gym room. Silently eliminate the enemy standing by the hole in the wall and afterwards jump through it to get outside.
Keep following the path while looking out for the soldier walking by the billboard - you should eliminate him to be able to get further unnoticed. You can also try to sneak by him when he's facing right.
Go through the hole in the wall on the left and climb onto the wall a bit further. Wait a moment for the soldier driving the truck to get out and head further with your companion. From not on, crawl all the way.
Look out for the soldiers patrolling the courtyard on the right. Very slowly crawl under the truck and wait for another enemy to head out before moving on.
Keep crawling further until you reach a set of stairs - you should also note a soldier soldiers standing there, who you should eliminate right now. If you decide to get further, he will start moving and you will have to kill him in motion.
You will find yourself before the library - in the distance you should see two enemies. Unfortunately they won't move even a bit, so use the sniper rifle and quickly kill them both. It might be a good idea to sneak as close as possible and kill them with a silenced pistol (the rifle takes some time to reload, which can cause an alarm to be activated).
Head inside the library and you should see two fugitives killed by a sniper. Welcome to sniper alley. The first sniper is very well visible, as he's wearing a blue jacket [290m] and can be found in the right side of the building, in the distance.
SECRET 2/4 - On the table on the right, in the first room of the library.
Very slowly move onwards, turning into the room on the left. The next sniper can be killed through the first window on the right from the room entrance. He's in the window on the right, by the balcony [220m]. You can also get through this part by running across the room to avoid fire or crawling till the very end.
The third sniper is lurking on the balcony at the end of the left side of the building - hide yourself between the shelves so that he has a hard time location you [210m].
You will reach a room which will be entered by a big group of soldiers. Wait for some of them to go up the stairs and eliminate them first. After clearing the area completely, move onwards while looking out for two more enemies who will appear.
Jump outside from the library and enter the neighbouring building. Go up the stairs and turn into the rooms on the left. Inside you will come across a few dead bodies of people killed by snipers. They might be quite hard to locate, so you can quickly run onwards instead of trying out your skills. One of the snipers is lurking on the next building - you can see him through the window in one of the rooms [280m].
From the next room you will be able to eliminate two more snipers [275m] and [260m]. Their locations are rather hard to find, so make use of the radar and narrow the search area with the binoculars.
After eliminating all the enemies, get out of the building and head to the large hole in the ground which leads to the sewers.
You will come across two speaking soldiers - wait a bit for them to split and start following them. You can get the first one by the fuse box - kill him silently.
The second one can be found in the corridor by the gate, by the branching on the left. After killing him, head to the other side - you will come across a red door. Jump onto the wall on the right and crawl further.
After jumping back on the ground, head right along the corridor which will lead you to the surface.
Wait a moment for the patrol to move on. One of the soldiers will stay behind - before killing him, move closer and wait for another patrol on the left to move away as well. Afterwards silently kill the first soldier.
It's also worth killing the enemy walking on the left - it will make things easier later on.
Moving onwards in unfortunately impossible because of the patrol - return to the starting point and go round the park. Very carefully crawl into the bushes by the fence and reach a suitable position from which you make a shot. You should try to perform a triple kill [45m] to minimise the chances of an alarm being raised.
Move onwards while looking out for a soldier right behind the corner, beside a advertising column. Don't forget to take down two soldiers in the lower part of the park - you can easily get past them without that, but it's always better to be safe than sorry. Try to score a double kill.
Climb the rubble while looking out for the soldier on the upper floor - eliminate him silently.
SECRET 3/4 - On a table on the right, beside a soldier.
On the square in front of the hotel there are six soldiers. Start eliminating them with the enemy kneeling by the car on the left [50m]. The second one should be the walking soldier - wait for him to be as far to the right as possible, where no one else will see him.
Four more soldiers can be eliminated in a couple of ways. Sneak close to the first two and wait for one of them to start going left, therefore turning his back on the on the other one - kill the second one and then the moving one, at best with a silenced pistol.
The next two can be easily killed by shooting a grenade held by the belt by one of them.
After clearing the area, head to the hotel and run to the very top where the vantage point is.
SECRET 4/4 - On the table on the left side, on the first floor of the hotel.
After a short cutscene you will be given your final objective - eliminating you former partner, Maddox. He will be found in a moving vehicle, so the shot will be rather difficult. The car will start moving at [780m] from your current position and will be closing in on you till [360m]. Try not to hesitate for too long, as eventually the car will disappear from your view and you will fail the mission.
Right after the mission begins, start following Diaz. You will reach the first vantage point from which you will have to clear the nearby village. Firstly take care of the soldier in the distance, behind a car [307m]. Afterwards take down the one tinkering by the crates (wait for the other one to move away from him) [126m]. In the meantime, kill the soldier who at first was standing by the pillars on the right (he will move to the left) [76m]. Wait for the man in the vehicle to be left alone [162m] and in the end kill the guard walking through the village.
After eliminating all the enemies, move onwards with Diaz along the path which leads across the bridge.
SECRET 1/4 - On the first supply building on the right.
You will split with your partner at the fork in the road and head onwards on your own. After reaching the ruins, you will be faced with killing six soldiers. Firstly kill the soldier on the right side [110m] - he will be walking across the balcony, stopping every now and then.
The second should be the enemy walking on the left balcony (on the lower floor). Wait for him to be as far to the left as possible [137m]. The third one to kill is the guard standing on the top floor [137m].
The next target is the soldier who keeps entering the small building - it's best to kill him when he's inside, through the small window [110m]. The second walking soldier is the fifth target - wait for him to move away from his standing companion and eliminate him [120m]. That will leave you with a single standing enemy [110m].
After clearing the area, go down the ladder and move onwards. In the distance you will see an incoming vehicle - quickly run through the gate and into the village.
SECRET 2/4 - Inside the central building in the village.
After running through the gate, head to the building on the left inside of which you will find a passage to the cellar. Keep running onwards, head up the wooden stairs after reaching the surface and you will get onto a balcony, from which you have to jump down at the other side of the wall surrounding the village.
When you manage to avoid the soldiers who are sweeping the area, keep heading along the road until you hear about an incoming helicopter - quickly hide in the bushes and wait for it to fly away. After running a few dozen meters you will note a destroyed bridge in the distance, at the edge of which there's a soldier - get rid of him. Diaz will take care of the other one.
A bit further you will have to eliminate three sniper in far away towers [430m], [530m] and [800m].
After dealing with the opponent, move onwards. You will come across a searchlight - try avoiding the beam of light. Wait a moment for Diaz to give the order to run. If you get detected, you will have to kill two soldiers.
Inside the cave tunnel you will come across mercenaries - wait a moment for them to stop talking and quickly kill one of them [40m] - Diaz will take care of the other one. Head out of the tunnel and kill two soldiers standing on the balcony of the house in the distance [70m]. Try and score a double kill here.
SECRET 3/4 - On a chest of drawers in the corner of the building guarded by two soldiers.
Follow Diaz up the stairs and you will reach a vantage point. In front of you there's a small village with six enemies. Your first target will be the soldier on the porch on the right [120m]. The second on should be the sniper on the tower [120m]. Unfortunately he will fall down and therefore alert the others - get rid of the four soldiers.
After clearing the area, run onwards along your companion and you will come across two mercenaries [53m] - Diaz will take care of one of them, so decide which you want to kill yourself. Keep following Diaz until you reach the telegraph.
SECRET 4/4 - On the upper floor of the wooden shanty which you pass by on the right.
You will begin the mission by losing your sniper rifle. You now have to regain it - head along the only possible path and try not to shoot anyone. You will come across a small patrol which you should wait to move on. A bit further, on the bridge, you will have to get past a searchlight - Diaz will tell you when to should quickly run to the other side.
On the other side you will come across a single soldier - take him out from a distance using the silenced pistol. In the further part there's a bigger group of enemies who you can avoid by very slowly going along the path while sticking to the shadows.
SECRET 1/4 - In the basket by the lying mercenary.
As you get past the camp, you will be informed of an incoming patrol - quickly jump into the water. Swim to the surface and towards the bridge which you will use to get further. Go up the stairs and silently kill the mercenary on your path
Continue going upwards while looking out for a single mercenary on the road - wait for him to go to the storage. Head deeper into the cave along the boulders.
SECRET 2/4 - Inside the ammo storage.
Silently eliminate the guard at the end of the cave and pull him out of the view. Move onwards along another tunnel, eliminating the mercenary who's talking on a short-wave radio. Look out for the search light - wait for Diaz to tell you when you can run and take your equipment. When you do, it's best to retreat to the tunnel.
Depending on whether you decide to retreat or not, you will have to shoot at a distance of [110m-140m]. Firstly destroy the searchlight and afterwards the three mercenaries.
After dealing with the enemies, go through the only possible door on the right. Cross the tunnel and you will come across two enemies standing on opposite sides of a precipice - take out the one on your side and Diaz will take care of the other one.
Run up the stairs to the vantage point, from where you will be able to take out seven enemies. The first enemy can be found hidden behind some wooden boards, opposite to your position [94m].
Your next target should be the two mercenaries walking on the right side - try killing them using a single shot so that you don't alert the others [88m].
The next enemy has to be lured out - shoot the bell on the right side and kill him when he shows up [110m].
Unfortunately there's no way to get rid of the other three enemies silently - just start with anyone and then quickly take care of the other ones before they can reach you.
After clearing the area, run down the stairs to meet with your companion.
SECRET 3/4 - On a crate nearby the stairs.
Run across the bridge and you pick up the explosives lying on the crate.
SECRET 4/4 - On a table in the upper part of the room.
The first charge has to be planted by the crates on the left side.
The second one on the pillar beside Diaz.
Once everything is ready, follow your companion deeper into the cave and detonated the explosives. Everything will start crumbling - don't lose any time and start running away ignoring anyone on your way. Keep following Diaz until the mission ends.
As the mission begins, follow Diaz across the bridge and you should reach a temple. At its top there's an enemy sniper [190m].
Cross the bridge and run below the pillar on the left side. Wait a moment for two guards to show up and silently kill the one closer to you - your companion will take care of the other one.
SECRET 1/4 - Behind the idol on the right, by the temple entrance.
Head into the temple by going through the red gate. Go up the stairs to the upper part with a vantage point. Firstly take care of the mercenary who's patrolling the upper floor [150m], as no one else will see him. Your second target should be the single enemy on the right side [85m].
In the end you will be left with three enemies - the best way of killing them all is shooting the grenade carried by one of them [60m].
SECRET 2/4 - In the corner of the upper part of the temple.
After dealing with everyone, run down and follow Diaz. After reaching another vantage point, follow Diaz's hints and start off by eliminating the two snipers [220m-240m] on the tower - wait for them to walk away from each other and kill them both before anyone manages to turn around and notice his dead buddy.
Soon afterwards you will be informed of another mercenary climbing the nearby tower - eliminate him as soon as he stands in the window [240m]. Right below the tower, on the right, you will find another single target [200m].
Two more soldiers will arrive - firstly take care of the one by the fallen pillar [50m]. The second should have gone to the right after the split [66m].
It's time for the three mercenaries in the middle of the square - before you pull the trigger, another enemy will appear and start moving towards one of the bodies by the fallen pillar. Quickly eliminate him when he's going up the stairs [90m].
After that you will be able to take care of the three enemies - Perform a double kill, leaving the one on the left for Diaz.
Clear the area and go down the stairs towards the square - after a few steps you will be attacked by two snipers lurking on the towers in the distance [360m].
SECRET 3/4 - Right beside the stairs on the square.
After dealing with the snipers, head onwards with Diaz. After a rather long run you will reach an entrance to a cave with two enemies in front of it. Eliminate them together with your companion in a synchronized manner.
After you cross the tunnel, Diaz will take care of one of the guards and soon afterwards a truck will appear - don't get detected. In the distance, between bushes, you should see a guard - kill him before leaving the tunnel.
Run up the path to the nearest boulder and hide behind it. Carefully wait for one of the mercenaries to get behind the vehicle and eliminate him [100m]. Shortly afterwards you will have to kill an enemy on a car [60m].
SECRET 4/4 - Right behind the gong on the left.
Follow your companion and go up the ladder to the next vantage point. A cutscene will activate, followed by possibly the hardest shot in the game with a very limited time - Marinov is flying towards you in a helicopter [480m] and you have to shoot it down by shooting the cabin.
Start off by following Diaz - after a rather long trip you will reach a vantage point with a view of the bridge. It's guarded by three mercenaries. You can take care of them in two ways - the first one is sending a bullet at the two enemies standing in a straight line [90m] (Diaz will take care of the third one) and the second involves damaging the radio which will draw away the guard's attention.
Regardless of which option you choose, you should clear the area in front of you - head to the bridge. A cutscene will activate and Maddox will start shooting at you. Quickly go prone and start crawling to the other side of the bridge.
After getting to the other side, Diaz will throw a smoke grenade which will make things a bit harder for your enemy - try to quickly run through the smoke while sticking close to your companion.
You will reach a large square swarming with enemies. Aim at the gas tank [75m] beside which two mercenaries are standing. Don't lean out to much after the explosion - get rid of the other enemies while staying in that position.
SECRET 1/4 - On a barrel on the left side, by the passage.
After clearing the area, follow Diaz further up the stairs and afterwards to the right.
SECRET 2/4 - On the stairs by building in the front.
Before the next bridge you will come across two sniper on the tower [190m]. Use the wall as a cover from enemy fire.
Run to the second location through the bridge and Diaz will decide to split. Having no other choice, run onwards along the only possible path - at some point a cutscene will activate, during which you will almost die.
Move on after your companion saves you.
SECRET 3/4 - On a bench by the statue on the right.
You will reach a bridge from which your friend is being attacked. There's a sniper in one of the windows [180m]. The second marksman is on the right side [180m]. In the end, get rid of the two mercenaries on the bridge [90m].
Head onto the stairs and you will come across Diaz. Unfortunately you won't be able to go too far, as the path to the next bridge is protected by Maddox who's sitting in the tower. Trying to lean out and shoot him will do no good, so you will have to shoot the gas tanks [400m] nearby his position. If you're having problems locating them, turn on the night-vision goggles.
Run to the next building and go up the ladder.
SECRET 4/4 - On a barrel on the left, beside the building exit.
The further road won't feature any obstacles. You will reach a small square with a few enemies. First off take care of the sniper in the tower [170m]. Afterwards kill a single enemy on the right side by the stairs [80m] and in the end two soldier standing beside each other [90m].
Follow Diaz and you will reach another vantage point. Place your weapon and take a look at the courtyard. The first mortar crew is in the very middle [550m].
The second one is to the right of the statue [650m].
After the mortars you will have to deal with elite snipers - The first one is right above the statue [700m].
The second sniper is to the right of the statue between the boulders [670m].
The third one is lurking on the tower on the left side [950m].
It's now time for Maddox. He can be found in the right window of the left part of the central building, right above the statue. He will constantly move away from the window, so you won't have too much time to shoot - remember that waiting for too long might end badly for you. Killing Maddox will end both the mission and the game.
