Portrait Of A Killer


Portrait 1 After completing Wrong Is Right for UL Paper, Ray asks you to come by the office for another job. Drive to UL Paper down by Star Junction. Drive into the construction site. [movie sequence begins] Ray says he has a problem. This union guy Dimayev is cutting into dangerous territory. He wants you to take him out and his mafia gang, down by a warehouse in East Island City.

Portrait 2 Dimayev is already known by the police and they have records of his location. I'll send you a photo. Leave UL Paper and find a police car. If you can't find a parked police car, pull over and dial 911 on your phone. A few moments later, a police car will arrive nearby and stop. Keep your weapons hidden, run up and jack the cop car, lose the 2-star wanted level and park on a quiet street. Ray sends you a photo via message.

Portrait 3 Go into the police computer [L1]. Use [Search Police Records] then [Search By Photo]. The photo in your phone will compare with the database. BINGO! Adam Dimayev shows up. Use [Locate][X] and his current location will be routed to your navigation system. Once you have his location, drive the police car out of Algonquin, over the Broker bridge. The warehouse is just off Dukes Boulevard up in the industrial section of East Island. Wait for daylight.

Portrait 4 Because you're driving a police car, and you don't want to attract any attention just yet (the lookouts up on the third level [X] will scatter and run for cover) park away from the targets. Get out of the car, run across the street and stay out of view. Look to your radar display. There are 10-12 red circles bunched up in the top of the circle. You have a choice. Run across and duck behind the retaining wall, or snipe from here.

Portrait 5 Load your combat sniper rifle (I happened to have the new better one). Zoom-in all the way on the group up on the third level. Pick off 3-4 gang members from here. They'll panic and start to shoot back at you but you're far away. Try for a clean headshot when they stop running and look around. Make sure you save some bullets! NOTE: If you use up ALL your ammo, you'll lose the weapon (very costly to buy again $8,500).

Portrait 6 Once you've thinned out the group, run across the street and walk up the ramp along the brick wall. Load your SMG, go into cover [R3]. Slowly walk up the ramp til you can just see over the top. Lock-on your target [L2]. Peg the guy behind the car on your right. Duck for cover again. There will be a hail of bullets from the third level. They now know you're closeby. They'll pin you down behind the ramp for awhile then they stop.

Portrait 7 Aim and look-up to the third level for any open targets. You can definitely peg 2 guys from behind the wall. Look above the roof of the shed to the break in the wall. Peg that guy. Look to the left. There will be 1-2 guys peeking out from behind the large cargo containers. Try to lock-on and shoot them from down here. Now run up and hide behind the car beside the shed. You shouldn't have gunfire from above.

Portrait 8 Look to your radar for any red circles without arrows. This will let you know who's on this level (how many) and where they are. Walk out from behind the car with your SMG loaded and looking ahead. There's probably only 1 guy left hiding behind a car. Take him down. Now you have a choice. Climb the ladder to the third level or jump on top of the dumpster, then to the roof of the shed, then grab the upper ledge.

Portrait 9 UP top, you'll probably have 4-5 enemies to take down. Dimayev has escpaed to another higher roof (shows as a red circle with an up arrow). You'll get him later. Sneak around the containers and when they run out to shoot, take'em down. Hopefully you still have body armor and it should be holding up. When the last guy is gone, go to the right to the very end. Climb the first blue container. You can see Dimayev.

Portrait 10 Unfortunately (or by deliberate game design), you cannot see enough of Dimayev (not even his head) [X] to take a clean headshot with your sniper rifle. Climb the second container then quickly jump to the roof. Load your SMG, target lock [L2] and make short work of him before he pumps too many bullets into you. In my case, he was leaning up against the roof wall and when I finally killed him, he fell over the side.

You can jump down to grab Dimayev's weapon or just use the ladder and climb down to street level. Niko phones Ray and tells him the job is done. Ray comments that this will lower the terrorism threat for all of us. Walk back and hop in the police car. Drive back to your safehouse, or.... try solving some crime missions.
