#James bond 007 nightfire mission 5 part 1 upgrade#

His next move is to upgrade the missiles with the nukes aboard the second shuttle, which is already docked. I can tell you that Drake's deployed a laser defense net which draws power from the platform's core. Some of the original crew might still be alive, but I can't confirm that. James, I'm still patched into Drake's com system - I've intercepted enough radio chatter to learn that Drake's Combat Troops have overtaken the defense platform. There exists unused dialogue that heavily implies a different beginning to the game's final mission, Equinox. Unused dialogue implies that there was a beginning section to Equinox that was scrapped, so these two objectives could have originally had something to do with that content. Just like the above text, however these exist right before the objectives of Equinox, the game's final mission. These placeholder objectives are listed right before Countdown's objective text. The Mission Objective 5 text is either a placeholder, or a sign that whatever mission this may have been for only had four objectives. Considering their location, it's entirely possible that these objectives were originally used for the scrapped mission, Streets of Tokyo, or for something else entirely. Located right after Phoenix Fire's information in the text strings are a set of objectives that don't find use in any of the final missions. Unused Objective Text Disable all security measures before using the lift No map data remains for any of these cut missions. For example, in the final game Hidden Agenda's main objective is covered in the stage Chain Reaction Atoll Infiltration's objective is covered by Deep Descent and Island Infiltration has a distinct second half that takes place along a river that renders it the longest stage in the game, possibly a result of absorbing River Gauntlet. That, or they were just deemed unnecessary to the overall plot. Some of these missions sound very similar to missions they lie either before or after, so they may have originally been alternate versions of the final missions we got.

'Prevent a hostile takeover of the missile defense platform.and save the world.'Īside from the 'Training' mission at the start, these cut missions give off the impression that the latter half of the game's story was trimmed extensively when compared with what they originally intended. 'Covertly make your way into the secret underwater base and pursue Drake.' 'Infiltrate Drake's Disarmament Facility.' 'Destroy the air defense system that protects the island from attack.' 'Sabotage the island's radar jamming devices so you can open the way for MI6 forces.' 'Reach Drake's private island undetected.'

'Use the special abilities of Q's Vanquish to infiltrate Drake's secret island base.' 'Flee the scene and head for Q's mobile headquarters.' 'Escape Kiko's trap and get out of the skyscraper alive.' 'Determine how Drake is secretly using the decommissioned power plant.' 'Infiltrate a nuclear power plant in the process of being decommissioned by Phoenix Industries.' 'Covertly access Mayhew's headquarters and retrieve data from the company computer system.' 'Rendezvous with Alexander Mayhew, a traitor in Drake's organization.' 'Race to meet Q at the extraction point.' 'Make your escape with Zoe on an unarmored snowmobile.' 'Drop in on Raphael Drake's reception and rendezvous with undercover agents.' 'Prevent a rogue faction from putting a damper on the New Year's celebrations in Paris.' 'Learn basic weapon and gadget skills in Q's evaluation center.' Included along with the rest to get an idea of where they fit in the game's story, these missions end up looking like: Within the tables for mission titles and descriptions, there are text strings for both titles and descriptions of several cut missions hidden among the normal set.
