My radio was acting up a few minutes ago. Remote soldier: Hans, have you heard from Otto? … He’s not checked in. Probably another stash of the locals?Īs we enter this new room we hear a conversation: Looking between the arch in the distance is an entrance where we are going to go but if we check out the fourth side of the courtyard, we find a lattice which can be broken to find secret grenades and health. Now we are not going to go up there at any point but it’s nice to know that the level designer at least made it theoretically possible. On the way back, we see the arch pictured below which explains how someone would get to the upper level of the building. So it’s outside again and as the path away from the courtyard is still locked, we’ll have to go back the way we came. Inside the compartment are two gold bars so our character Blazkowicz takes on another 55lb (24.8 kg) taking his additional pack weight to 110lb (49.6 kg)! What we don’t see is any way to go to the upper level that we saw from the outside. It is only the dimness of the room that hides what should be a very obvious button. It isn’t so obvious how its door opens but there is a red button on the inside of the food counter near the hot meal. If you compare the sizes of the two rooms, it is fairly easy to see that the eating room end wall seems shorter than it needs to be.
That isn’t to say that this room doesn’t hold a secret because it does. On the wall is the strange Enochian poster (above right) but unlike the other, this one hides nothing behind it. The other room seems setup as a room for cooking and eating. Notice the bar in the back of the picture. More than likely, this was a coffee house somewhat like the stock Reuters picture, shown further. It looks like a bar and that might be how the Germans set it up to be but good Muslim Egyptians would not have an alcoholic drinking house in their town. Next is the room that radio is in (see below left). There isn’t an especially strong Nazi association with this piece but any music by a perceived Arian archetype would be popular with a true Nazi believer. 25 in A minor but only a classical music fan would use that name. More technically it is named Bagatelle No. When they are down, we can work out where we are.įirstly, the music still playing on the radio (assuming you didn’t shoot it in the firefight!) is Für Elise by Ludwig van Beethoven. Whatever room we start fighting from causes all the other soldiers to come running, so just deal with it. In the second longer room, that can be reached from the right of the entrance or on its far end that joins the left-hand room is two more soldiers that are eating. The building is not empty it has one soldier in the smaller room to the left behind what looks like a bar listening to the radio. There is also an entrance that takes us away from the courtyard but it appears to be locked. On the far side of where we entered the courtyard is a door that is unlocked and should get us into the central building. Taking the left path doesn’t show too much of interest or Nazi soldiers. As it will turn out, it doesn’t matter which way we go first so I will choose to go left. As we join this pathway in the middle of a straight, we have an equal option to go either left or right. Alternatively, this may be closer to the administrative center. While the first level seemed to be the living area of the average person, if this is too a living area, this seems to be for a higher status level people. The building is large and it leaves a path, maybe 12 feet wide that stretches almost all the way around it. What we are looking at here is a large two story structure that sits in the middle of a courtyard. After dealing with him, it’s time to look at where we are. When we descend to the bottom, we encounter a soldier on patrol. The level starts exactly where the previous one finished and we soon reach the top of a flight of stairs. The last mission tells us that we will be moving up the weapons hierarchy from hand guns and rifles, which is where we currently stand. The second objective implies that there are at least two courtyards in this level and there will be some sort of challenge to get to the second one. After destroying the radio in the first level, now it seems we’ll get to actually use one. Our first objective, to contact Agent One by radio is something that we were told to do from the beginning.
I didn’t include the second or third as they are the same as the previous level. While we are still in the city or whatever this is, the vibe of the next level is different from the last one. If we considered Part 1 as RtCW on training wheels, here we get to take them off and play the game as it’s supposed to be. So we are now on the second part of the Ras el-Hadid mission (no indication of how many parts there will be).
