Gig: Freedom of The Press Choices and Best Choices

Convincing Max

When you first confront Max, you will need to quickly choose between two replies to him.

Nope, I'm not. This choice will allow you to talk to Max in hopes of convincing him to talk to Regina.
Max, drop the gun! This choice will lead to Max not believing you and ultimately commit suicide.

Best Choice

For obvious reasons, the first choice is the best choice as it will allow you to rescue Max. Picking the second choice will fail this mission.

Tips and Strategy

Have lots of RAM

This place is littered with laser mines and turrets that you can deactivate using quickhacks if you wanna safely progress in the gig. Having lots of RAM or perks that allows you to recover RAM quickly will definitely help make this mission faster (and a lot safer).

Sneak Around

If you don't have access to a lot of RAM, there is another way to Max's office (although this will make you miss out on a lot of hacking exp).

Check out the video below to know the way around all the traps in the area without needing to disable them. In this video, you will see which corridors to take and obstacles to jump over in order to avoid the mines and turrets completely.
