Complete walkthrough for Mission 1: Nimble Guardian in Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Future Soldier. Learn how to use cover and snipe enemies.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    After the opening cutscene (a non-interactive cinematic the game plays automatically), move down the street with your team and utilize the cover (a system that allows you to hide behind objects) system.
  2. 2
    Deploy a sensor to reveal enemies and use your scope to headshot (a shot that lands on the enemy's head, usually an instant kill) (a shot to the enemy's head that deals critical damage) them through walls.
  3. 3
    Jump over crates and follow your teammates through buildings.
  4. 4
    Refill on ammo and descend the stairs.
  5. 5
    Take cover at a low wall, deploy a sensor into the crowd, and eliminate the two initial targets.
  6. 6
    Rotate to an adjacent wall for a better view of incoming enemies.
  7. 7
    After eliminating ground-level soldiers, deal with enemies appearing on the roof and balcony.
  8. 8
    Another cutscene (an in-game cinematic) will trigger after this group is eliminated.
  9. 9
    Refill on ammo.
  10. 10
    Take cover on a nearby wall, throw a sensor onto the ground below, and eliminate soldiers on the ground and in surrounding buildings.
  11. 11
    The target will enter a vehicle as an enemy humvee appears. Snipe the gunner on the machine gun; the car should explode.
  12. 12
    Refill on ammo and move into the action square to proceed.
  13. 13
    Climb ladders and follow your team down the path.
  14. 14
    Deploy a sensor into the wooden structure for the "Gather intel" objective.
  15. 15
    Stand by the door to breach; you will experience a slow-motion sequence where enemies won't shoot back. Kill one or two enemies, and your team will handle the rest.
  16. 16
    Enter the next area through the garage door.
  17. 17
    Sprint down the street and take cover on concrete road blocks.
  18. 18
    Deploy another sensor and begin shooting.
  19. 19
    Move down the street to eliminate two more enemies on a balcony to the left.
  20. 20
    Sprint past the next objective marker and find cover on a nearby building to learn about the cover-to-cover option.
  21. 21
    Follow the on-screen prompts to advance your position.
  22. 22
    Head down to the right and snipe the machine gunner while they are distracted by your ally.
  23. 23
    With the car disabled, sprint up the street to the right.
  24. 24
    Fight your way up the street using sensors as needed.
  25. 25
    Follow your team through obstacles to the next street.
  26. 26
    An ally will clear out trucks; finish off remaining resistance and follow your squad off the streets.
  27. 27
    Grab the suppressed weapon.
  28. 28
    In the next open area, you must avoid detection. This means using only headshots and not killing enemies within range of others.
  29. 29
    Deploy a sensor.
  30. 30
    Kill the soldier on the right side who is alone.
  31. 31
    Move past their previous position and head up the stairs.
  32. 32
    Ignore soldiers to the left and enter the building to your right.
  33. 33
    Kill the soldier patrolling outside and refill on ammo at the crate.
  34. 34
    Stand by the window for a breach sequence.
  35. 35
    Start from the right and move to enemies on the left, ensuring not to kill the hostage.
  36. 36
    For the next portion, you are restricted to a pistol and must escort the hostage.
  37. 37
    Quickly snipe the gunner in the back of the truck, then kill the driver as they exit.
  38. 38
    Take cover on the truck and pick off targets on adjacent rooftops.
  39. 39
    For the final part, stay with your team and kill any enemies that approach, ensuring your shots count to avoid reloading.
Tips
  • You can shoot through many different surfaces, not just wood.
  • Always assume you should throw a sensor when encountering a large group of enemies.
