Chapter V - The Edge - p. 2 Spec Ops: TL Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Move on

Depending on your preferences you can stay with the sniper rifle or use previously used weapon. I suggest leaving the sniper rifle as a secondary weapon. Select main weapon from the inventory, jump down onto metal construction shown on the above screen and move forwards. Due to the fact, that soon you'll find yourself under attack, I suggest sprinting.

After reaching the rooftop of a new building, quickly take cover behind the nearest wall and throw grenades at enemies who will appear here. Prepare to attack those opponents who survived your previous action and try to get closer to the place occupied by you.

Once the proper fight begins, keep eliminating those enemies who try to shorten distance from your team. Also watch out for opponents on the left side. You might use the sniper rifle to eliminate distance target, but if you do not have such weapon, you can indicate those targets to be eliminated by your sniper.

You can end this battle in two main ways. First option is to march through the central part of the rooftop while eliminating all enemies on your way. Another option is to get to the rooftop of the left red construction (screen above). Performing that action would allow you to attack your enemies by surprise from the flank and gaining advantage of the height. You can also find there valuable weapons and ammo and grenade supplies.

Keep fighting until you eliminate all enemy units. Explore the area looking for supplies and then head to the entrance indicated by the game (screen above). Now you have to walk through the empty building. You won't encounter any enemies there and will find ammo crate when you reach the staircase. After reaching the exit, jump down and then jump over the railing.

Survive the attack

Get ready, because in just few moments you'll lose ground under your feet. Try to eliminate enemies at the bottom before you land there.

Right after landing stay behind the pillar, where Walker takes cover behind by default. First deal with nearby enemies and then eliminate those, who come running from the distance. According to warnings by one of your team-mates watch also out for the mad knife fighter (screen above), killing him before he can get close to the main hero.

After clearing the first room, carefully approach the entrance to the adjacent hall. Also in this case you have to watch out for knife fighter and a sniper, occupying left balcony.

Since new enemies should appear always in the same place and in groups, you might use grenades on them. You can also try to kill enemies when they rappel down lines, because then they are totally defenseless. Keep fighting until you eliminate all enemy units.

Continue your march to lower levels

Look around for ammo crates and then leave the building. Grab the zipline and rappel down. Once you land at the new place, use the brie leading inside the building.

I suggest stopping here for the moment, because there is a new secret hidden in this area. Look for the stairs leading to the upper apartment floor (screen 1). After reaching the destination, turn right and go to the bedroom. Intel Item - Radioman Tape - Evacuation Cover-Up, lies on the floor (screen 2).

Return downstairs and start exploring rooms there. Fortunately you won't encounter any enemies so you do not have to watch out. Force in the door by kicking it (left SHIFT) and move forwards. Your target is the door shown on the above screen - force it in too (left SHIFT again). You'll watch effective cut-scene here and the chapter will end.
