Hidden & Dangerous 2

P RIMA ’ S O FFICIAL S TRATEGY G UIDE

Introduction

H IDDEN & D ANGEROUS 2 is an exceptionally deep game of squad-based commando action. This

depth extends to such diverse details as:

■ Precise modeling of historical weapons and uniforms

■ Complex enemy behavior

■ Numerous methods of controlling your team

■ Multiple valid ways of completing most missions

All this depth is great, but it can lead to a bit of confusion. Which weapons are most

effective? What can you do to remain stealthy? How, exactly, do disguises work? What’s the

best way of ordering your team around?

That’s where this book comes in handy. It’s the definitive guide to H IDDEN & D ANGEROUS 2,

and it exposes the guts of the game. If you want detailed information on how each weapon

performs, how your enemies behave, and exactly where each mission-critical item is stored,

you’ve come to the right place.

This book starts with general information chapters, and then proceeds to walkthroughs of

specific missions. It ends with some tips on completing the game’s alternate campaign modes

(like Lone Wolf and Carnage), and suggestions on refining your multiplayer technique.

You can approach this book any way you want, but here are our recommendations:

Start by reading chapters 1–3, and chapter 10; these give you a solid understanding of

how the game works and how best to approach it. Then, refer to the later chapters on an

as-needed basis while you’re busy working through the campaign.

Then, when you’ve completed the campaign, go back and read the walkthrough chapters

(4–9) in their entirety. Compare how your strategies differed from ours, and see if you missed

anything important along the way.

Regardless of how you read this book, we’re certain it will deepen your understanding—

and enjoyment—of H IDDEN & D ANGEROUS 2.

Now, without further ado—off we go to the front lines….
