Secrets
How to get a custom rifle
When you are in the castle in japan. After you have shut down all generators, go to the back of the castle. You have to walk on the right sid if you are facing the castle. There is a sniper who cant see you when you enter the hallway. If you have a smg (sd6) shoot him in the head. Has to be one shot. He will fall out of the window our at least his weapon will. The custom rifle sileneced sniper rifle. Then this might take a few tries. Luckily i got it on the first try. You must complete the level with this weapon in your possesion.Faster Knife Attacks
Playing in third person, there is a limit to how fast you can swing small knives, like the scalpel or combat knife. However, if you enter first person, this delay time is non-existent, making combat far easier.
Glitches
Kill A UN Guard Glitch
In the Level Motorcade Interception, one of the mission objectives, is to spare the UN guards and not kill them. You can simply kill them by approaching behind them and use the Fibre Wire on them to kill them. Using only the wire will glitch and allow you to kill them.Early Silenced WA2k Sniper Rifle
In order to obtain the silenced WA2k sniper rifle early in the game, play the levels with the ninja clan snipers (either At The Gates or Hidden Valley), where you originally start off with that stupid crossbow. In the large sniper towers, all of the ninja snipers are equipped with powerful silenced sniper rifles, a weapon you won't get until much later on in the game. In order to get one early, snipe a ninja with a solid headshot as they're slightly leaning out of a window, and more often than not when they jerk back they'll drop their silenced rifles over the railings and onto the ground below the tower. It may take a couple tries, but it beats having to wait to get it several missions down the line, since this is the end-all sniper rifle in the game.Stretchy People
Put on the "Nailgun" cheat and shoot someone onto a wall. Make sure they're in your reach and go to one of their legs or arms that isnt "nailing" them to the wall and press "drag body". If you have done it right you can now walk around while holding onto the person and they will stay on the wall unless you select the "drop body" option.Rat Dragging
If you're ever in the sewer and you have a gun out you've probably noticed that the (aiming circle) which is white unless there is an enemy and it turns red. It's because theres rats in there that you can kill and drag. All you have to do is shoot it when you see the red circle, search for it, and then when you're near it the "drag body" option will appear and 47 will bend over and drag it like a person.Quick Lock Picking
When you come to a lock that needs to be picked just start to pick the lock then after about a second press Select then X to open up your map, then wait about another second then hit triangle to exit the map, if you did it right the object should now be unlocked and it was done in only a fraction of the time. (If it doesn't work the first time wait a little longer in the map before you leave back to game play)
