After a short intro, you will be welcomed by your first friend - Ghost. Get used to its appearance and voice, as this little droid will be accompanying you for the rest of the storyline and beyond. It has a couple of very helpful functions that will prove useful for many purposes, like navigation and displaying mission objectives, flashlight in dark places, as well as summoning vehicles.

The first mission introduces you to the game and its core features. You start without any weapon, an empty inventory, and a basic armor for your class. You will get a weapon during the introductory mission, and by the end of it you should also have gained a new level as well as your first class ability - grenade.

Enter the wall

The Wall

Once you regain control over your character, head down the hill. Keep walking straight, weaving through rusty car wrecks. To display the current mission destination or open access to some of Ghost's functions, press navigation button (PS3/PS4: Select/Touch, X360/XOne: Back). After a while you will get to the wall. Go through the broken door into the building, and then take the stairs to the upper floor.

Find a weapon

Go straight across the catwalk. Do not worry about the darkness ahead of you. Your robotic friend will automatically turn on the flashlight, as soon as you enter a darkened location. Climb up the stairs on the other side of the catwalk, and then walk straight. Wait for a moment while Ghost is turning on the light, then go to the corridor on the right and pick up the rifle (Khvostov 7G-02) that is laying against a blue box.

Your first weapon

Armed with a basic weapon keep walking straight through the corridor. At the second turn, a Dreg and a Vandal will come at you. These are the basic units of The Fallen, whom you are going to fight in the first stages of the game. Eliminate them and run on. At the second turn right, another Dreg will attack you. Use melee attack (PS3/PS4: R1, X360/XOne: RT), to get rid of him with a single strike and clear your way.

Fight through the wall

And the first chest

After a moment you will get to a small hall, where a Vandal and 3 Dregs will attack you. Start by killing the first one, preferably from a distance, and then take on the Dregs. Each of them goes down with a single melee attack.

Head on straight, and walk across a small catwalk. On the other side you will find a Loot Chest. Open it to receive 48x Glimmers (in-game currency) and a special weapon, depending on your character class. Weapons of the type use green ammunition, which is dropped by opponents more rarely than white ammunition (primary weapon), that is why you should use it sparingly.

Go down, and you will see a long corridor full of mines with laser sensors. Crouch down (PS3/PS4: Circle, X360/XOne: B) and crawl under the lasers, while eliminating incoming Dregs. Once you exit this hellish corridor, you will get into a large hall with a large welcome committee waiting for you, consisting of Vandals and Dregs. Eliminate them one by one, making good use of covers, and when the battle music finally stops, walk through the door on the other side of the room. Walk along the tunnel until you get to the surface again.

Fight through The Fallen

When a spaceship appears, run straight on from the tunnel exit, and you will see a smaller ship dropping new opponents. Hide behind the wall and start eliminating incoming waves of Vandals and Dregs, until the entire square is clear. Then go to the other side of the battlefield, toward the mission marker. Here you will find an open door to a garage, where you will be attacked by a group of Dregs and a new type of enemy - small battle drones called Shank. Clear the garage off the opponents and walk inside the building.

On the other side of a short corridor, you will get to a flooded hall with old computers and a large group of enemies. If you already have the second experience level, use your class grenade to eliminate the first group, and the second one - in the next room - can be dealt with using standard ammo.

The next and last room contains the ship you were looking for and a mini-boss, who guards it - Rahn, Devil Captain. First deal with his squad consisting of Dregs and Vandas, while evading their leader. Once all of his companions drop dead, focus your fire on the captain. Rahn has two abilities: self-regenerating shield and blink. The latter he uses mainly for dodging, while the shield protects him from attacks and can regenerate, if he is not receiving damage for some time. Besides, the shield regenerates much faster if it is not fully down. Destroy the enemy shield, and then keep up the fire not to allow for its regeneration. Also, keep changing your position so the opponent did not get too close. After the mini-boss dies a cut-scene launches and the mission ends.

Reward: Arcadia Class Jumpship
