My first video for ACB

Its basically what I call a ghost run. No interaction with the guards, no killing them and you cant get seen at all ( no yellow arrows) I do this until the chase sequence

It was a really fun mission for me because I was recording and playing the chase sequence for the first time and I had a few near deaths.

Ok just got the game, already got a world record ( not trying to brag but im pretty stoked right now) here is the first video.

You guys better make another subsection for this because im a huge fan of VR missions from MGS2 and I will probably upload every level, like the contracts

Here's a description of the video.

Mysterious deaths: For the first target I simply climb up behind him to poison. Luckily the guards are too far enough away to notice you. You will know if the target saw you because you will usually hear an exclamation, and it will tell you to reduce distance to target if you get too far away.

Here is a description of the video:

Dynamic Stunts: If I remember correctly a dynamic stunt is a stunt done on a fleeing target from a high height. I especially liked it because I had never done this before, and I heard it was the favorite assassination style of a certain person. This involves using a smoke bomb from a distance to make a fleeing target run without having to worry about desyncronizing if he gets too far away. The targets usually take predictable paths (not random) depending on where you are when you throw the smoke bomb.

Tripwires: Tripwire is basically aiming with your hidden gun and shooting when the target passes by, and since the targets take certain routes with the smoke bomb trick I decided to use the hidden gun's tripwire kill when they
come to a certain spot. But one thing I don't like about this is the fact that other characters walk through the wire before the target does. Nevertheless I did try to keep them away (just to make it more realistic) with dead bodies and poisoned people, but that didn't help much. So lets just say they saw the wire and walked over/ducked under it while the target was too busy running to notice it.

The Hidden Blade's featured member for November is Asaic, who created the popular feather maps and screenshots for this site. Here's Asaic in his own words:

This one is a request from Oatkeeper on the official forums. Im carrying on the assassination contracts anyway to put more videos for that section for this site, so if anyone has any special requests just post them here or PM them to me.

Now that we have a contracts section you may notice im making more videos on contracts, I would appreciate any requests on other contracts as well now that I know more about the game and can make them more interesting. I like contracts because almost each stage has something unique about it.

Here is part 2 of my codex page video guide. My original plan was to get both parts into one video, so some parts were kinda rushed ( the smoke bomb and the easy double assassination slaughter)
