The Holland Play… (Playboy X)

You pay a visit to your acquaintance Playboy X, who gives you a big bloated speech. Despite all the ramblings, the speech is actually about Dwayne. You attempt to reason with Playboy but it’s not working—looks like Playboy’s mind is made up. Dwayne has to go. And in typical fashion, Playboy wants you to do it. You leave the apartment, which completes the first part of the task.

Eventually Dwayne calls and tells you he’s going crazy and suspects Playboy wants him dead. He proposes that you go after Playboy for him. Dwayne promises to stick by you to the end if you’ll take out Playboy.

Now you’re in a pickle. Playboy X will call you back soon and ask you if you’ve made a decision yet. Time to decide who lives and who dies.

…The Holland Play (Playboy X)

Once both parties have proposed killing the other, a red "X" and a red "D" appear on your map. You can decide who lives and who dies.

Objective: Kill Playboy X or Dwayne.

Let’s start with Playboy X. There are more advantages to getting rid of Playboy X. First, Dwayne becomes a friend if you eliminate Playboy. Get friendly with Dwayne and you earn a special benefit: Dwayne will have backup assist you on missions. Also, if you get rid of Playboy X, Dwayne gives you Playboy’s old apartment to serve as a safehouse.

Drive over the Playboy’s apartment. You find him inside with four of his bodyguards. Playboy soon realizes why you’ve come and makes a run for it. Eliminate the four bodyguards then pursue Playboy onto the roof.

Descend the fire escape and chase Playboy. When you reach the streets, Playboy calls more guards, this time driving a vehicle. Stick to the right, ignore the vehicle, and follow Playboy into an alley. Find him trying to get inside a building. Gun down Playboy, which completes the mission.

Targeting and eliminating Dwayne is easier and not as wise in the long run (because of the lost friendship). Drive over to the marked location and find Dwayne and a bodyguard inside his place. Eliminate both parties to complete the task.

Harboring a Grudge (Packie McReary)

Packie McReary makes contact and offers a job. When you pay Packie a visit, you meet more members of the McReary clan, including Ma McReary and Packie’s sister Kate (you seem to catch her eye as she’s leaving, much to Packie’s irritation). Packie’s got business out at the harbor.

Objective: Go to the harbor warehouse.

Grab a vehicle and pick up Packie. Drive along the marked route to the harbor at Fishmarket South.

Objective: Follow Packie. Follow Packie up onto the roof.

Once you reach the marked location, exit the car and follow Packie into the harbor. Packie does his best Lara Croft imitation—he climbs over lumber, grabs the billboard railing, and shimmies to the other side. Follow the onscreen instructions and his movements. Pull up onto the roof and rendezvous with Packie. A cut scene reveals the arrival of the boat. The deal is going down.

Objective: Steal the truck. Climb down the mini cabin to get to the ground.

There are plenty of enemies below but the rooftop offers an excellent height advantage and line of fire. If you’ve got some grenades, toss them into the cluster of guards. A sniper rifle can also be a nice ambush weapon against several of the enemies. Arm a pistol or assault rifle for long-range accuracy. Clear out as many guards as you can see; there are others inside the garage. Drop down.

Approach the garage carefully and take cover by the entrance. Eliminate the guards waiting inside. Make your way to the office on the left side and find a much welcome health kit. Clearing the area triggers the next objective.

Objective: Escape in the van back to Packie’s lockup.

Thankfully the lockup isn’t far because you’re pursued and attacked from enemies inside a car. Listen to the dialogue: you find grenades in the car. Follow the onscreen instructions to toss the grenades out of the van. Concentrate on your driving. If you’re careful and don’t get stuck, the close proximity of the lockup will allow you to reach safety quickly. The mission ends as soon as you reach the marked lockup—even if you have a wanted level and a bunch of enemies still on your tail.

Waste Not Want Knots (Packie McReary)

Pay Packie a visit and discover him handing out weapons to his crew. The plans are to hit a mafia-controlled waste management plant. It’s a Robin Hood mission!

Objective: Find a four door car. Pick up Packie and the others.

You need a four door car to hold all of Packie’s crew. Find one either down the street or just jack a car that happens to drive by at the time. Drive back and pick up Packie and the crew.

Objective: Drive to the waste depot.

You can assault the waste depot from the side or the front.

It’s a long drive to the waste depot over on Colony Island. Enjoy the conversation and learn more about the McReary family. The money at the waste management plant is kept in the office inside the main building. Packie has a boat near the depot to serve as the getaway vehicle.

Objective: Get inside the depot and get the cash.

Pulling up to the marked spot triggers the next objective. When you park there, Packie and the crew run and climb over the fence into the depot and start the attack. You don’t have to park there to trigger the attack. You can also pull up near the fence and get out there. The second option seems a bit better for getting ahead of Packie and his crew and taking control of the fight.

There’s plenty of cover. The problem is that if Packie or any of his crew dies, the mission fails. Take command of the battle and eliminate enemies as quickly as possible. Keep attacking until you hear Packie say, "Alright boys, let’s go inside and find this money." That’s your cue that the area outside the depot is cleared. Pick up the health kit by the main entrance to the depot; save it for after you’ve completed the exterior fight.

Objective: Get the cash from the office.

The depot is also cluttered with defenders. You receive help from the crew but keep in mind that they can still die, which will end the mission in failure. Make your way toward the stairs; these lead to the upper office and the money. There are a couple guards around the office; watch the upper catwalk as you make your way toward the cash. Grab the marked loot to trigger the next objective.

Objective: Meet up with Packie outside of the depot.

Descend the staircase and discover that more enemies surround your position. The crew can still die and the enemies keep pouring in so it’s vital to work fast. Your best choice is to push quickly toward Packie’s location—it’s the door on the left side.

Objective: Escape the depot with Packie. Swim out and get in the boat.

Follow Packie away from the depot. Jump into the water and swim to the marked boat. Get inside.

Objective: Get Packie back to safety.

Drive the boat to the marked location on the map. Get Packie safely to the dock to complete the mission.
