CoD: Black Ops III Mission 08 - Demon Within
1MISSION 08 - Demon Within
Core selection: The control core is nearly useless in this level (as you cannot control the robots that do appear), so you are better off selecting the martial core for it's camouflague abilties or the chaos core for it's fireflies against human opponents. Another thing, make sure you bring along a thermal scope on your weapon as you will be facing nearly 100% non-robotic enemies here, so it will be extremely useful for picking enemies out.
Watch the opening scenes of the level play out until you have boots on the ground. You'll be facing off against a manticore here (for the first and only time). This machine is like a P.A.W.W.S on steroids, as it leaps around, fires exploding spikes and bullets from a minigun. The manticore moves around fairly quickly and will chase you down relentlessly if you draw it's attention by dealing a lot of damage. The best strategy here is to hide behind one of the burned out APCs or other large pieces of cover, circling around it as the manticore gets close to make sure it can't get line of sight. The exploding spikes take a few seconds to detonate after they are placed, so you should be able to sprint to a new piece of cover or to move out of the way if they land at your feet.
After taking certain amounts of damage, the manticore will leap up onto the face of a nearby building and will fire down at the area below. This is your opportunity to unload your weapon at her from cover, ducking down if it starts targeting you. The manticore (obviously) cannot be affected by hijack abilities of the control core, so don't bother. Kane will call out the remaining health of the manticore as the fight goes on. When you finally damage the mech enough, it will clatter to the ground exposing the pilot.
Approach the downed pilot and interact with them to enter into what seems like a dream. Follow the line of lit trees all the way to the end and pick up what you find at the end to trigger another scene. After a fair bit of exposition, you will be dumped into a snowy battlefield. Your job in the following sequence is to keep following the dreamer, fighting your way through the enemies that get in your way. When you are in control once more, move forward and to the left to take cover behind some rocks, using this position to scope out the battlefield ahead. You'll want to stick to the edges of the area (I chose the left), firing inwards at the enemies in the center. This will help you avoid being flanked. Move from cover to cover along the left side, using your tactical view and/ or thermal scope to pick off the enemies in your line of sight.
Be careful as you move up as you will likely encounter this mission's biggest screw you attempt. Enemies have the ability to spawn out of nowhere (during the rewind effects, like trees standing back up or explosions going in reverse) in this level, meaning you may think you are safely in cover but new enemies have spawned behind/ beside you, suddenly firing out of who knows where. So make sure to watch for nearby rewind effects, shooting any enemies you see rising up out of the ground before they can react. Note that this happens more frequently as the level goes on.
Keep to the left side of the map, moving along the wooded paths and fighting your way past the enemy outpost. The allied forces will continue to move up with you, acting as occasional bullet sponges and distractions. Take your time, taking out enemies one by one until you come across another outpost, where enemies are firing a turret towards your allies. From your position to the left, you should be well placed to flank them and remove them quickly. Be warned that nearby enemies will run into the outpost to replace the downed gunner, so be ready to take out the reinforcements as well before moving up. When the coast is clear, enter the second outpost to find a WWII US Field Radio.
Moving on, restock at the nearby ammo crate and stay to the left, looking for another immobile enemy ahead who is on a turret. You don't want to get blindsided by this guy as he won't appear on your tactical view until he moves, until it's already too late. Trudge through the snow up the slope and suddenly it will become late evening as the sky darkens. Follow the dreamer around the next corner in the path to see more enemy forces ahead. Be cautious as you move here as the terrain will move around you, changing the line of sight of nearby enemies (some of them rise up, allowing them to shoot at you). Polish off the first group of enemies and then head down the slope after the dreamer, being careful to pick off from cover any enemies that appear from rewinds.
