Has anyone got all the loot? I'm still missing 15 and it's driving me crazy.:confused:
Jack - I don't know if you ever found your missing 15 loot but I've just completed this mission and found all 1700. However, I didn't keep a loot list as I went along. But there was a purple goblet which I think was worth 15 on the floor down the side of one of the large crates in the warehouse area at the end of the mission. It was difficult to spot because it was dark. Could that account for your missing 15?

Aha! That's what I was missing. I can finally check this one off now. Thanks ChrisC! :thumb:

This is, with only a few exceptions, an excellent mission. It doesn't have much of a story, but that is fully compensated by the challenge (played on Expert) and Thief-gameplay as it was meant to be, created with a few simple means: good balance between shadow and light, good use of the 3rd dimension and especially the guards with their damn helmets :D Also, those narrow hallways and small rooms gave me a good claustrophobic feeling of getting caught.
I started out by hating it, because I couldn't blackjack anyone and the guards were everywhere. I soon got into the groove, though, and started to love it: All the blackjacking of late had made me forget the joy of waiting in the shadows, timing the patrols, looking for alternatives and the tension of "sneak-rushing" into a room, douse a torch and hide in a corner and all that within the few seconds the guard was out of the room.
Good gritty architecture, good use of textures and materials (with some nasty surprises :sweat: ).
OK, enough big words: The bad:
* No map, but I'm not so sure if it really was a bad thing. The lack of a map made me explore and gave me the feeling of being all alone. Once I had gotten full circle I knew the layout and it wasn't the maze it could have been.
* Keyhunt. Why not offer another way in, in addition to finding the key? Not that the keys were very hard to find, but after a while I had a lot of keys to cycle through.
* A particular ladder (at the prison) gave me a headache. I had a hard time attaching to it on the right side. I could attached to it from the back, but then I couldn't get around to climb down. Most of the time I fell down, made unwanted sounds, alerting the guards and got hurt.
My complaints are not major: All in all, I really, really enjoyed this mission. I am going to keep this one in mind in my own novice Dromed-endeavours: A lot can be learned from it.

This has to be one of the very few missions I started, but never finished. I'm in the middle of it, and it's quite good!
Except for, perhaps, that nearly every guard has the old blackjack resistant helmet!
Nov 25, 2015.....Still cannot finish, but I think it is a NewDark issue!

Hi, I'm replying this FM and searched this whole thread, but no clue how to get into the warehouse. :erm: I really don't have a clue, but it seems obvious to everyone else.
Please give me a hint or better yet, a spoiler!

Once you find it, I guarantee the first thing you'lll say is "How in the name of all that's holy could I miss that for so long!" I know I did!
