Synopsis
Tied loosely to the events of the main Battlefield 3 campaign, Hit and Run takes place in a Levin Cooperative building in Paris that is a front for terrorism. It is the players job to extract vital files from the top office floor, and at the same time, survive waves after waves of heavily armed private military contractors.
At the start of the mission, players are given a few seconds to fortify the starting room with claymores. After descending into the lower floors of the building, the players enter a quiet corridor containing display cases with antique items. As the players proceed into the room, the PMCs ambush them and a firefight erupts. Players must then fight their way to the parking lot below to the escape vehicle. When arriving, dozens of PMCs are gathered around the vehicle and must be taken out. The players then enter the vehicle and drive out of the parking lot, into the streets of Paris as the PMCs closes in.
Completion Description
"Good work on recovering the intel. The Information was protected by advanced security protocols, but we managed to recover a name before all files were lost. The name is Abdul Rahman. He is a well known PLR associate who was suspected in the London bombing a few years back, but no credible link to him could be found. Now we know that Levin Corp. has financed several trips for Rahman in and out of France. If he's involved, we can expect a similar attack on Paris, we just need to pinpoint where it will happen."
