There are many different ways to play through the Splinter Cell Conviction single player campaign. This walkthrough is how we played the game. This part of our Walkthrough covers level ten, Downtown District.
Synopsis
While Sam, Sarah and Coste are en route to the White House, the other EMP devices detonate and their chopper gets shot down by Black Arrow troops in the streets of the city. Sam must fight his way through the ensuing chaos to reach the White House.
Objectives
1) Escape the crash site
2) Get through the security cordons
3) Get inside the Whitehouse
Move up the centre aisle of the theatre. Watch the opening on your left hand side when you reach the top, there’s a room full of guards. You can tackle them from here, throwing in Frags, or Remote Mines, or you could sneak past the door, drop down the gap and flank them from the open door. There’s a lot of guards to contend with, so stay behind cover and take them out clinically before moving through the room and out of the door. Down the corridor and through the building. Move out onto the street and up the road. Take a left at the first junction. Keep moving down the street, there are no guards to tackle so you’ll be safe. Keep going till you can go no further and take a right down an alleyway. There’s a pipe right in front of you. Climb up it and shimmy across the ledge going left. You can perform a Death From Above here on the guard below.
There’s a network of pipes here and ledges that you can use to move around the building and then across to the building opposite. There’s the opportunity to get on the ground and use the dark spots to execute hand-to-hand takedowns, but you can just as easily bypass all the guards by sneaking right past them in the shadows. There’s also the opportunity to execute plenty of Death From Above kills. Around the corner and there’s a weapon stash to upgrade and equip your preferred weapon. At the end of this road you’ll face some stiff opposition so upgraded your Remote Mines to a larger blast radius will come in handy if you haven’t already done so. Keep to the right hand side of the street and you’ll see a ladder you can climb. Go up or underneath it into the shadows where you either perform a Death From Above move or a hand-to-hand takedown on the guard. You’ll need to get past the barrier of guards. You’re better off using the cover on the side street of the cars and chucking over some Frags and Remotes and then taking the rest out via the Mark And Execute maneovre. Move toward your objective marker until a cut scene kicks in.
A gun without a sound suppressor will alert other guards
You now need to blow up the gate at the WhiteHouse. Conveniently, there’s a petrol tanker parked right outside, but there’s also a three guards standing right outside to contend with. If you cross the road directly in front of you and get behind cover you can get into a prime position to attack. If you drop a remote mine in between them, you’ll kill all three of them and blow up the tanker. Move back across the street away from your last position and take cover. You’ll know have to deal with a lot of guards. Remote mines work well here, but if you’re feeling brave you can toss a couple of EMP grenades and then move in swiftly for some hand-to-hand takedowns, that way you’ll be able to deal with any leftover guards with the Mark And Execute move.
Move through the gates of the Whitehouse and up the driveway. You’ll see another wave of guards heading your way so take cover in the shadows. This is tricky. You can try sneaking past moving from cover to cover down the right hand side. You may be able to get behind a couple of them and perform a hand-to-hand takedown. If you do get spotted use a flashbang and move from your last known position. You’ll also unlock one of the PEC Challenges for a Flashbang escape. You can fight your way through this section, but you can also bypass all the guards if you’re very quick.
As soon as you see the first wave of guards coming your way, crouch and move swiftly down the right side from cover to cover. Hop over the barrier and then move immediately to your left behind the jeep. You’ll probably be spotted at this point, so throw a Flashbang and run like hell toward the White House. You’ll see another wave of guards on the way, but if you stick to the right hand side you’ll be in the shadows and you can jump over a few hedges before running toward the open door of the building. Okay, you’re in the WhiteHouse.
