SWAT 3 WALKTHROUGH

Welcome to my walkthrough for SWAT 3 on PC. Please note that suspects and hostages appear in random locations so I can’t tell you where to find them (this is also true for the bomb on the last level).

Mission 1 – Freeway Sniper

Objectives – Arrest Martin Brenner
Locate and secure all weapons

Order your team to stack up at the door. Try it and order one of your men to pick the lock. Mirror the area and if it’s clear enter the building. Order one team to cover the stairs while you clear the kitchen and living room with the other one. Search the cupboard under the kitchen sink and under the stairs then continue up stairs if you don’t find Brenner.

On the first floor, order one team to cover the attic stairs and use the other one to clear the three rooms. Brenner can be found in any of these and is either armed with a pistol or a rifle.

If the first floors clear then he’s in the attic. Open the door and use the mirror to locate the suspect then throw a gas canister in his direction. Order your team in and he should give up without a fight. If he was armed with a pistol then take the rifle from the boxes by the window.


Mission 2 – High Risk Arrest Warrant

Objectives – Arrest suspect Victor Getts
Locate and remove Albert Getts
Locate and secure all weapons

This levels a bit trickier since you have to arrest Victor Getts and you fail if he is killed. Fortunately he gives up easily but his son Albert won’t be persuaded so easily. He is always armed and is prepared to shoot. When you come across him you will probably have to subdue him with CS gas of flashbangs before he gives up and even then it’s tough to not end up shooting him.

Use stealth tactics and enter via the side entrance. Pickup the weapon under the coffee table, and order one team to cover the kitchen door while the other one covers the hallway. Mirror the hallway and if it’s clear search the closet and disarm the explosives on the study door with your tool kit.

Move down the hallway clearing the rooms and then enter the garage. Throw CS gas into the basement and clear it and collect any weapons there.


Mission 3 – Import – Export Shop

Objectives – Rescue Ambassador Jemil Kemal
Gain control of suspect Lokman Damar
Bring order to chaos

There are between 4 and 6 suspects in here and they can appear anywhere. Approach the shop in stealth and pick the lock, then clear the store using gas to deal with any hidden enemies. If there are suspects in the front of the store then you may have to shoot your way in using dynamic mode tactics and flashbangs.

Once the area is secure revert back to stealth if you where in dynamic mode and stack up at the back room door. Use gas to clear this room as there is often an enemy lurking behind the crates opposite the TV in here.

Use gas to clear the next area and make sure to clear the toilet area to the left hand side then clear the storage room. Stack up at the basement stairs and enter using gas. If you’ve not faced many suspects yet then be prepared as you could face 3 or more down here. Be especially careful of Lockman Damar as he is extremely aggressive and sometimes the best tactic to arrest him is to incapacitate him by shooting him in the arm or leg.

Clear the whole basement to find the Ambassador and your mission is complete once the area is secure.


Mission 4 – Home Invasion

Objectives – Rescue Donald Foreman
Rescue Linda Forman
Rescue Jacob Foreman
Rescue Emily Foreman
Bring order to chaos

This mission is the first real tough one. There are about 8 suspects all in tactical gear and carrying automatic weapons. I strongly recommend equipping the M4 to all team members as the suspects body armour soaks up a lot of MP5 rounds. The suspects are all extremely dangerous and won’t hesitate to fire on you so aim for the chest and drop them as quickly as possible as you can often face multiple targets at once. Always gas a room before you enter it and remember to search every corner for suspects.

There are 3 levels to the house, as well as the pool area and the porch area to the front of the house. Be extremely careful when clearing out the dining room as there are multiple suspects in here and several outside in the darkness that can shoot in.

Enter using the default entrance and as always use stealth tactics. Mirror the pool area and if there are suspects throw several gas canisters and then flashbang the area using dynamic tactics.

Switch back to stealth and clear the basement area at the side of the house. Move up the kitchen stairs and clear the kitchen where there are usually several suspects. Clear both rooms to the side of the kitchen and the wine cupboard.

Next take the door on the right and clear the dining room. There will almost certainly be several suspects in here so use the wall as cover and deploy gas into the room and aim for the suspects body armour to increase their chance of surviving. Watch out for suspects shooting from the windows (they can be a real pain and hard to spot) and clear the porch area. Use caution when using the front door as you can be shot at from the balcony on the first floor.

Retrace your steps back into the kitchen and clear the room behind the door to the left and enter the corridor to the left of the dining room and clear the study. Check that the stairs are clear and clear the garage area before slowly moving up the stairs in stealth mode mirroring at every turn.

Once you on the first it’s just a simple task of clearing the remaining rooms to find the last hostages. It’s likely that most of the suspects have now been either arrested or killed so you shouldn’t face many more.


Mission 5 – St Dimitri’s Church

Objectives – Rescue His Holiness Alexy III
Rescue Archbishop Backhause
Rescue Bishop Popov
Rescue Bishop Makarov
Rescue Heirmonk Petkov
Rescue Monk Ignatiew
Rescue Father Sever
Locate and remove Nick Coleman
Locate and remove “Sugar Stevens”
Locate and Remove Chaz Green
Locate and remove Terry Sole
Bring order to chaos

This is another longer mission although in general this one’s not as hard as the last one. There are 7 hostages which can appear anywhere in the map and there are two sets of suspects – the security force and the terrorists. As before the terrorists are wearing body armour so its M4’s all round again. The suspects are also very aggressive in this level so expect to have to do some shooting.

The church is quite a large building with only one entrance. It’s best to go in using stealth tactics to prevent the suspects or hostages becoming suspicious and moving (which can be annoying).

Clear the grounds then clear the bell tower then the walkway above. Enter and clear the living area and use one team to cover the double doors while the other clears the room above.

Clear the corridor behind the double doors and the bathroom on the left. Approach the door on the right and switch to stealth mode if you’re not already in it. Order your team to stack up and open the door, mirror the kitchen for suspects and if there are any gas the room and clear it with dynamic tactics. Clear the next room with stealth tactics and order one team to stack up at the double doors and the other to stack at the double doors back out in the corridor. Order them both to clear the room dynamically at the same time, this ensures that any suspects in the room are surrounded.

There is a secret door in this room next to the double doors that lead to the corridor so use gas to clear it out then return up stairs. Backtrack back to the bell tower than move back down stairs and stack up at the door at the bottom. This is the main area of the church and will almost certainly contain several suspects along with several hostages. The best tactics to clear it are to go in using flashbangs and gas while in dynamic mode and systematically clear the area while using the pillars for cover. Be wary of suspects in the darkened area in the corners though as they can be hard to spot and also cover the 3 doors on the far wall.

Secure any suspects or hostages and then clear the alter area at the back then switch back to stealth mode and clear the 2 rooms at the back with gas.


Mission 6 – Construction Site

Objectives – Bring order to chaos
Disable all surface to air missile launchers
Stop destruction of plane

This mission can be a real pain as its dark and has a confusing layout in places. I recommend going in with M4’s and in Dynamic mode at the default entrance. Your first priority should be the missile launchers which are located in excavation sites.

Enter the site and take a left and use flashbangs to clear the building on your right. Once it’s clear disable the missile launcher in the middle of the room.

Go back outside and go down the alley to the left of the gate and take a right at the end. When you come to several buildings go right through the gate and enter the excavation site and disable the second missile launcher. Now enter the pipe to get to the second excavation site. Clear this site and disable the last missile launcher.

Now all you have to do is to search the site and building and locate the reaming suspects. There are 9 suspects and the mission ends once they have all been arrested or killed.


Mission 7 – Bank

Objectives – Rescue downed Officer Eric Kronberg
Rescue Marie Bonds
Rescue Julia King
Rescue Gwen Davis
Bring order to Chaos.

Again the suspects are in full body armour so use M4’s or MP5’s with full metal jacket ammo, and enter in stealth mode on the roof. Enter via stairwell C. There are sometimes a couple of suspects in here so move with caution. When you enter the bank, immediately go right then take the next left and then left again. Follow this path to the stairs.

Go down the stairs and clear the storeroom then order you team to stack by the storeroom door. Mirror the corridor as there will likely be at least one suspect here. If you come across a suspect then use gas to subdue him before moving in.

If you are detected clear the back rooms and offices using flashbangs otherwise use stealth tactics and mirror every doorway and use gas as the rooms will probably contain suspects.

Once the area’s clear storm the front area in dynamic mode using gas and flashbangs and then switch back to stealth to clear the two safes.


Mission 8 – TV studio

Objectives – Rescue Mayor Marlin Fitzpatrick
Rescue Herman Moyer
Rescue Donna Briggs
Rescue Jeff Lamont
Rescue Howard Kurtz
Rescue James Jones
Rescue Thomas Columbato
Rescue 5 unknown audience members
Bring order to chaos

Enter and stack up at the double doors at the end of the hallway. Get ready as there are usually several terrorists in the next area and open the door. Once the suspects have been cleared from the main area, use gas or flashbangs to clear the area to the left by the crates.

Next use gas to clear the bar in the room to your left and the darkened storage room. Once the whole area’s secure switch back to stealth and stack up by the door at the far end. Mirror the next corridor then clear out the rooms and the area at the end. Be careful for suspects on the balcony overlooking this area as they can shoot down at you. Also don’t forget to search the car park at the back.

Get one team to cover the set area while you take the other one to clear the rooms on the first floor. Once they’re clear return downstairs and order your team to stack up by the set. There will be several hostages and multiple suspects in here so throw in several gas canister and flashbangs before you enter.


Mission 9 – Phoenix Lounge

Objectives – Arrest Ric ‘Dog’ Peters
Arrest Jon T Elliot
Arrest Brad K Kritzer
Arrest Brit Houge
Locate and secure all weapons

This is a dynamic mission so arm your squad with MP5’s and go in the default entrance in dynamic mode. Flash and clear the main area and once its clear flash and clear the toilets. Search the whole area for weapons and then switch to stealth mode and stack up by the door on the right wall.

Mirror the storage area and clear it, then stack up by the door leading to the living area. Start by clearing the area in stealth but if you come into contact with any suspects switch to dynamic and clear the remaining rooms with flashbangs. Don’t forget to clear the back entrance as there is often a suspect in the alley behind the building.

When the area is clear; search for the remaining weapons.


Mission 10 – Penthouse

Objectives – Rescue President Igor Stomas
Rescue Eduard Galeev
Rescue and evacuate an unknown number of hostages
Bring order to chaos

This is quite possible the hardest mission in the game, there are loads of suspects (up to 30), hostages and civilians in here so it’s essential to check your targets before you fire. Some of the terrorists wear full body armour while others are dressed as catering staff. Equip all your men with M4’s and enter in stealth mode.

Slowly move down the stairs and mirror the lift area at the bottom. Enter then order your element to stack up by the door leading to the stairs. Mirror the stairs and clear them using gas as there most will likely be several suspects on them.

Clear the stairs and use gas to clear the room at the bottom as there is often a suspect hiding in the lift. Move into the next area opposite where you are now. Next, clear the back entrance then flashbang the rooms in the corridor behind you. While you’re doing this it’s essential that you keep one team covering the stairs as suspects have an annoying habit of sneaking up on you while you’re not looking on this level.

Once the basement is clear, move back up stairs using gas again as they might not be still clear, this time take the other door, clear the corridor behind it and take the door at the end of the corridor, this will lead you outside.

Once your outside, enter the room through the double doors, be careful as there are sometimes suspects in here and the glass won’t provide much protection. Clear the adjacent bathroom then the main hallway through the double doors, again there can be multiple suspects and hostages in here so be careful.

Also, there are sometimes suspects outside, behind the bar area which can sometimes be hard to spot. Once this area is clear then the mission should be complete.



Mission 11 – Convention Centre (Day)

Objectives - Protect Igor Stomas
Protect Dignitaries from harm
Maintain safe perimeter

There are suspects and hostages everywhere so check your fire. Some of the suspects are in full body armour while others are in civilian clothing. They are not very aggressive and many of them will give up if persuaded. This is a purely dynamic mission so equip your team either M4’s or MP5’s with full metal jacked ammo, you can either start either on the bus or by the humvee but it doesn’t really matter since they’re both next to each other.

Wherever you start your team will clear the bus and surrounding area of threats. Move up to the double doors and enter the building. Clear the main floor and then move into the kitchen area. Next clear the office area on the opposite side of the hall and then flashbang both toilets.

Once the entire ground floor is secure, clear the stairs on the left wall (near the office and toilets) and use these to get to the first floor. Again, clear the area of suspects

Clear the corridor to you left and then flashbang the rooms and then do the same to the ones on the right.


Mission 12 – LAX Control Tower

Objectives – Rescue Steve Shnider
Rescue Bob Stanley
Rescue Kobe Carson
Rescue Bernie Shultz
Larry Babcock
Bring order to chaos
Prevent destruction to aircraft

This is a stealth mission so equip your team with MP5SD5’s and full metal jacket ammo. Stack up at the entrance and pick the alarm controls and then the door. Advance slowly into the hallway and follow it mirroring at every turn.

When you come to the door at the end, stack up and mirror the corridor on the other side then clear it. Stack up at the double doors marked ‘HVAC’ and clear it using gas. When it’s clear; exit using the other double doors.

Now clear the stairs with gas, the reason we’re clearing them now is that to get onto the next level its best to use the stairs in the compressor room so you might as well take out any suspects lurking on them now rather than giving them chance to move.

Now stack up by the single door leading to the compressor room. Again, mirror it and clear it with gas. Stack up by the door in here and clear the corridor. Keep clearing the rooms until you come to the stairs. Clear the stairs and proceed to the next level.

When the entire staircase is clear, stack up at the door marked ‘Kitty Hawk’, clear this floor and take the door on this level and cross the bridge. Clear the floor of the building you are on then enter the stairs (these are the ones you cleared earlier) and stack up at the door on the lower level. Enter the area and clear the room to your right and the office that it leads to.

Now search the main area and stack up at the doors on the lower level. Clear the elevator area then clear the brooms behind the other doors. Once the floor’s clear, enter the stairs and retrace your steps back to the top and back into the control tower.

When your back in the tower, go back to the stairs and go up to the next level (Red Baron and clear that. Now clear the flight deck the same way. Now all you have to do is to clear the remaining floors, this should be easy to do and the mission ends once the hostages have all been rescued and when you have brought order to chaos.


Mission 13 – Ventura Hotel

Objectives – Protect Cheah Heng Ming
Protect Terrence Abrams
Protect dignitaries from harm
Maintain safe perimeter

This is a very easy mission, go with MP5’s for this one and go in dynamic mode.

First, clear the stairwell with gas then return to the first floor and clear it of enemies. Systematically clear all the rooms with flashbangs and gas. Once the floor is clear simply use the stairs you cleared earlier to get to the ground floor.

Clear the backrooms and corridors with flashbangs and gas then proceed to the lobby and then the bar. Be careful when storming the bar as it usually contains at least one suspect and the room is dark so it is hard to see in but easy to see out of for the suspect.


Mission 14 – City Hall

Objectives – Rescue Mayor Marlin Fitzpatrick
Rescue Angel Cummings
Rescue Irving Metcalf
Rescue and evacuate an unknown number of civilians
Arrest Tobias Stromm
Locate and diffuse explosive device
Bring order to chaos

Again go in dynamic, flash and clear the corridor and then use gas and flashbangs to clear the library and the room behind it. Return to the corridor and go back to the door by the stairs and take the door opposite them. Clear all the adjacent rooms then return to the library and clear the stairwell in the corner.

Use this stairwell to get to the next floor and flashbang the room to your right. Next as always clear the hallways then clear the rooms one by one with gas and flashbangs.

Once this floor is clear simply proceed up the stairs to the next one. Clear the large area with gas then use one team to cover the stairs while the other one searched the offices.

Throw several flashbangs and gas canisters onto the top floor and clear that, watch out for suspects shooting in from outside. When diffusing the bomb, first disable the beams by using your toolkit on the panel below them, and then diffuse the bomb itself.



Mission 15 – Storm Drains

Objectives – Bring order to chaos
Locate and dispose of all suspicious equipment
Evacuate all unauthorised persons

This mission has a very confusing layout so to avoid getting lost I recommend using the light sticks to mark where you have been.

To make things worse you have a time limit of 45 minutes to diffuse all 7 bombs. The bombs look like small radios and when you approach them you can hear them beeping and humming.

Start at the west entrance, the first bomb is under the 3 barrels just left of where you start. Go right to the bottom of the stairs and just under them, under a piece of wood is the second bomb.

Go down the ramp in front of you and go right at the bottom. Go left at the end of the passage and the third bomb is at the far end of the next area in an old trolley.

Exit the room via the far side and follow the passage to the next area where the forth bomb is under some debris in the corner.

Face the direction that you were in when you entered this area; take the left turn furthest way from the bomb you just defused. Down this passage is the fifth bomb, it’s by one of the corners on the wall.

Continue on the path and turn right at the end and go up the ramp to the above level, pick the lock on the gate and the next bomb is in the next passage that’s full of gas.

Go back to the gate but take the path to the right instead of going back through and go straight through past the stairs to your right. At the next intersection, carry on going straight and take the next right you come to. Follow this passage and turn left at the end. On the walkway in front of you there’s the last bomb.

Now that all the bombs have been dealt with all you have to do is search the sewers for any remaining enemies or innocents.


Mission 16 – Convention Centre (Night)

Objectives – Protect dignitaries from harm
Maintain safe perimeter
Locate and diffuse atomic demolition munition

Like the first convention centre level, go in using dynamic mode and enter through the double doors in the car park. Go up the escalator and clear the first floor area and the surrounding rooms (the layout is exactly the same as the other convention centre mission). Thee are even more suspects and hostages on the last one so you need to be aware of where you are shooting as it’s very easy for hostages to be caught in the crossfire.

When the top levels secure, move down and clear the kitchen area along with the toilets and the office. Then take the stage area, be careful as there will probably be several suspects here so use gas and flashbangs to flush them out and keep your team together.

If the mission has not ended by now then proceed down into the basement and clear that of threat.

The bomb is randomly placed so I can’t tell you where to find it but I have come across it in several places including under the stage, in the projection room on the first floor and behind the door in one of the first floor rooms.
