Last Stand walkthrough

Ready for Mendez

Meet Diaz on his roof. The Hunter is waiting, and Diaz says Mendez has a fortress downtown that this machine can break open. Vic makes clear that the debt is settled afterwards and that he is doing this for himself and his family, not for Diaz. Get in the Hunter and take off.

Fly to the Mendez Building

Fly to the Mendez Building in Downtown. Guards on the roof and the balconies shoot at you and fire missiles, so keep circling the tower rather than hovering. Use the Hunter’s guns and rockets on the guards and move sideways to dodge missiles. The Hunter must survive until all the guards are dead.

Down in the Hunter and into the stairwell

A rocket strikes the Hunter and Vic has to put it down on the roof. Get out and walk away before it explodes. Then enter the stairwell and take out the guards inside. There are several rooms on the same floor, and each has a group waiting. Fight from the doorways and pick them off a few at a time.

Follow Diego Mendez

Follow the stairs to the lower floor and clear the guards. After the last one falls, a scene shows a helicopter arriving with Martinez. Diego Mendez retreats upward and Vic follows him up the stairs, fighting more guards on the higher floor. Check each corner before you move, because guards appear from the side rooms.

Attack the helicopter

Martinez’s helicopter now attacks the floor. Take cover from it and, between passes, deal with the guards in the office. When the helicopter is exposed, shoot at it until it goes down. Use desks and walls for cover, and fire when the helicopter turns toward you. After each pass you meet a few more guards.

The roof

Follow the stairs to the roof. Martinez is waiting there with a gun aimed at Vic, and Diego Mendez is nearby. You have to take out both of them. If you finish one first, a message tells you to kill the other. Use the roof structures for cover and keep moving, because their men also shoot at you.

What fails this mission
