 +
;a. Bungee jump from platform
 +
: The player must make it to the end of the level and walk off the platform.
 +
 
 +
=== Secret Agent ===
 +
;a. Neutralize all alarms
 +
: The four alarms on the level must be destroyed.
 +
;b. Bungee jump from platform
 +
: This is the same on all difficulties.

;a. Neutralize all alarms
 +
: This is the same on all difficulties.
 +
;b. Install covert modem
 +
: The player must place a modem (a [[gadget]] and [[projectile]]) on the screen near the padlocked gate.
 +
;c. Intercept data backup
 +
: The player needs to initiate a backup on the mainframe in the basement. It is not necessary to wait for this to complete before leaving.
 +
;d. Bungee jump from platform
 +
: This is the same on all difficulties.

== Facts ==
 +
 
 +
=== Opening Cinema ===
 +
 
 +
There are good and bad cinemas for the run. If the opening cinema shows the truck at the gate then quit out and try again.
 +
 
 +
== Strategies ==
 +
 
 +
=== Fast Gate Strategy ===
 +
 
 +
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdRYR-kwBW4 Explained here]. Mandatory for all runs.
 +
 
 +
== Misconceptions ==
 +
 
 +
;Open double gate
 +
: The idea of having the gates open for you as you reach them. The guard unfortunately is not fast enough to do such a thing, but actually is possible with cheats on (Slow/Fast Animation, Turbo).
 +
;Skip the gate button
 +
: The guard goes through two states before deciding to open the gate, and pressing the button skips one of them. The slightly tighter line is not a time save.
 +
;Use the lower route for the 3rd/4th alarms
 +
: Slower route, though possibly reduces lag more than normal. There's a barrel down there which when destroyed from its top damages an alarm, but it's not enough to fully destroy it.
 +
;Shoot alarms through walls
 +
: Alarms become unloaded and can only be destroyed by an explosive, not available without cheats.

Now the 3rd alarm is basically the same as the 2nd, just a little more complicated since the door is at a more awkward angle. But basically, use the same strat for 3rd alarm. Now you will approach the hardest part of this record, the last alarm. This thing will cost you great runs, trust me. But once you get used to it, it isn't very hard. What you want to do is strafe to the corner, then quickly run forward to the alarm door. Try and aim for the center of the door, and also try and open the door from rather far away, so you can see the alarm early. Shoot the pp7 like theres no tomorrow, and hope you are aiming at the alarm right away. This alarm will never be really consistent this way, since you cant really hesitate for 117. All you can do is hope you are aiming at it already. If you miss a bullet, readjust yourself as quickly as possible and hope the next 5 bullets come out very fast. Back up just as you shoot the 4th bullet, and shoot the 5th while backing up. Now you want to use lookdown again, and in right strafe, strafe towards the stairs to exit the level. This turn might ruin some good runs for you, as it isn't hard to get stuck on the stairs a bit while turning off the dam. Try and turn sharply to the right just as you pass the sewer on the ground, and hope you do a nice sharp turn off the dam with no stucks. There is a small chance you will get a boost off the dam, and also sometimes a guard will see you and try and backboost you while you make your exit. Even with a great run with a boost 1:17 is never guaranteed, but with this strat 1:18 isn't too hard. Good luck!

Once you are at the far tower door, change to a right strafe to open the door, and then a left strafe going up the stairs. If you have 6 or more KF7 bullets, use that for the alarm at the top. Get nice and close so every shot hits. Open the door to your right and change to the PP7 to get a warp. Continue in a right strafe making a left turn to head for the 2nd tower (in this case the final tower). Make the left turn and quickly open the door. Hopefully you can aim the alarm quickly and shoot it with your PP7. After hitting it for the 3rd or 4th time, start backing up for the final stairs while shooting out the last alarm for Objective A. Left strafe up the little stairs and to your long fall to the end.

Dam on LTK is pretty straight-forward. If you're going for a completion, the sniper rifle in the very first tower could be useful but is not a must. To get past the section before the double gates without dying too often, you could watch BOTH cinemas and then take cover behind the green truck.

Generally speaking, the first levels in Goldeneye on the DLTK mode belong to the easiest, with the exception of maybe Dam (actually, the first level being harder than Dam (not counting the near-unbeatable [[Silo]]), is [[Streets]], the twelfth level.
