However, it is the only building in the vicinity with an obviously visible helipad. Do not wait too long to deploy the parachute, otherwise there won't be enough lift to reach the top of the building. | ||
*After having killed Ashvilli, be sure to jump out of the building, deploying Luis's parachute. If the player heads for the elevator instead Luis will be stuck in a small corridor with endlessly respawning enemies. | *After having killed Ashvilli, be sure to jump out of the building, deploying Luis's parachute. If the player heads for the elevator instead Luis will be stuck in a small corridor with endlessly respawning enemies.
