Your very first mission, this is almost more of a tutorial than a real mission, but don't let that lull you into a false sense of security just yet, it isn't a cake walk.
Step 1)Learning how to move around.
Okay, so maybe the first little bit is a cake walk. There aren't any enemies, you are just learning the basics of getting around such as jumping, walking, sprinting, hacking, and busting down walls with your bare hands. They still count as bare hands even when they're augmented super limbs, right? Anyway, get to where it will ask you about your first tutorial to continue, it's pretty linear so just keep moving forward.
Step 2)Access the cage room.
Your first group of enemies is here, once you are done with the tutorial if you choose to do it. There are three enemies to deal with. They are fairly easy to sneak up on, but handle them whatever way you see fit. At the end of the hallway here is a keypad to access a caged off room. If you've been checking bodies on your way you should have found a personal assistant with the keycode on it, but if not you can always hack it as well, it's a pretty low security. Once you've gotten access to this room, pop open all the lockers to find some useful items, and move the box that's up against the wall to reveal a structural weakness to break through to get into the elevator shaft.
Step 3)Fight your way to the rendezvous point.
You'll get a new tutorial on how to access some augments that will help you with being stealthy when you drop down this elevator shaft. Once this is finished you are going to need to either sneak past the guards ahead, take them out silently, or draw your weapon and fight your way through. If you choose to fight they will call in reinforcements and you'll be faced with quite a brawl, so it's up to you. I think in total there was about ten of them, so thinning them out using your stealth skills would be advised rather than an outright brawl.
Optional Step 4)Knock out the wifi signal booster.
On your way to the rendezvous point, if you stick to the high ground to the right you'll come across a doorway with two guards setting up a little beacon. Take them out and deactivate the beacon to complete this optional objective.
Step 5)Save Singh and prevent the helicopter from taking off.
The deal doesn't go as planned, and you are suddenly faced off against a number of augmented enemies. They will dart around quickly and are equipped with both a combat rifle and pistols. On top of that, the sandstorm has arrived. Your visibility is going to be next to nothing for this fight, but if you use your smart vision you'll be able to spot them without an issue. I'd advise grabbing one of their rifles as quickly as you can and picking off the group that is trying to get to Singh, if you manage to do this quick enough he should survive long enough for you to get to the helicopter and pull the battery. For doing so, you'll earn an achievement, but if he dies it isn't really a big deal so don't stress over it.
Once the helicopter is neutralized then the sandstorm will hit in full force and your mission is over, sit back and watch the cinematic for a full introduction to the game and it's story line. In true Square Onix form, it's quite a long opening, so popcorn may be advised, you won't need to interact with the game at all for a while.
