    So I'm at the part after the failed hostage exchange and chasing the money guy. Just got rid of the sniper and am alone in a hallway.

    I can't seem to get past this part and am wondering if I'm missing something. I'm taking cover right behind an advertisement and some guys are walking toward me ... do I need to sneak past or something because engaging them always leads to my demise.

    Any tips would be great. Thanks!

    Shoot them with your guns and don't let them shoot you with their guns? There's nothing special about that part.

    That's really it, though. It's a shooting sequence just like any other. I had trouble with it too, but after a while I got through.

    @TwoSe7enFive: are you talking about the part...

    Right after you climb out the window and passos says he'll cover you with the sniper rifle?

    Yes, then you go though a door into a hallway that is FULL of dudes

    I'll just keep plugging away then ... figured I was missing something because I'm only on medium difficulty and it seems overly hard for so early on in the game.

    @TwoSe7enFive: Right, ok. There should be about 3 (maybe 4?) guys who are right in front of you and to your left. Take them out as fast as you can and then take cover against the wall in that alcove that they were in. This gets you a better vantage point on the guys who are on the lower level near the railing and it'll allow you to see people as they come down the hall. About two people will come directly towards you which you can see from a distance if you peek out behind cover and two will make their way around the lower right by the railing but they'll give away their position with stray bullets before they get a chance to really hit you. From that alcove it's pretty hard to get flanked. It's just a matter of taking them out as they come toward you
