Infiltrate Warehouse Guide — Intravenous 2: Mercenarism

AntMag.NET

Mission 1: The Contract's secondary objective, 'Infiltrate the Warehouse,' is your first major test of stealth and tactical awareness. This isn't just about reaching a point; it's about doing so undetected or with minimal confrontation. Success here sets a precedent for how you'll approach future mercenary tasks.

Understanding the Objective

The warehouse is a controlled environment, likely patrolled by guards and possibly equipped with surveillance systems. Your goal is to gain entry without triggering a full-scale alarm. This might involve finding a specific entry point, disabling security measures, or using the environment to your advantage.

Potential Entry Points

Warehouses typically offer multiple ingress options. During Mission 1, you might find:

Loading Docks: Often less guarded but may have active personnel.
Side Entrances: Smaller doors that might be locked or less visible.
Ventilation Shafts: Classic stealth routes, usually requiring a bit of searching to find.
Rooftop Access: If the warehouse has accessible rooftops, this can offer a stealthy approach.

Stealth Tactics for Infiltration

To successfully infiltrate, consider these tactics:

Observe Patrols: Watch guard routes and timing before making your move.
Use Cover: Stay behind crates, walls, and other objects to break line of sight.
Distractions: Throw objects or use environmental elements to lure guards away from your intended path.
Silent Takedowns: If you must engage, perform quick, silent takedowns from behind.
Disable Cameras: If you spot security cameras, look for ways to disable them, either through hacking or by shooting them from a distance (though this can attract attention).

Dealing with Security Systems

The warehouse may have basic security systems. These could include:

Motion Sensors: Avoid triggering these by moving slowly or finding alternate routes.
Laser Grids: These require careful navigation or disabling.
Keycard Locks: You might need to find a keycard on a guard or in a nearby office.

Tips for Mission 1 Infiltration

Start by scouting the perimeter to identify all possible entry points and guard positions.
Prioritize silent approaches. If you're detected, be ready to adapt or retreat and try again.
Conserve your ammunition for when it's absolutely necessary.
Listen for audio cues – guard chatter can reveal their positions or intentions.

Successfully infiltrating the warehouse in Mission 1 is a crucial step in establishing your competence as a mercenary and unlocking the next phase of the contract.
