I'm pretty sure that on every outro and intro level there's a street sweeper hid somewhere, that then you can use to break open pathways to the secrets.
The only street sweeper i could find tho is on the hub/town levels. The first one and the second one being in the Book/Bratva lookin guy owner store on the top wall.

Alright the first street sweeper easter egg is in the intro of Birth. Instead of shooting the both guys, just execute them. Then in the next floor shoot the door blocking you to the platform. That had to be the funniest ♥♥♥♥ i have ever seen.

I was thinking and I still don't know if all the interactions with Alina were just a dream or she really is a private investigator. She knows too much of lore and gameplay to be real. And it makes more confuse when u think in the secret campaign (idk if i can write about that here)

You can talk about that here! It's fine - spoilers can be discussed in both discussions.

Ok. So, the first meeting with Alina occurs at Sep 27th (I guess moments before Recruit), but the Alina's raid to bureau basement happens at 11:15 (6 hours before Recruit) and the "real" meeting with John in cafe at Sep 29th. At this point they hadn't shared any clues about the conspiracy behind Eden or the goverment. Is there something I'm not taking in count in this puzzle?

The "real" Alina was attacking an organization separate from the Bureau and the government. John and another Bureau agent raided them shortly after Alina left. She never gets the chance to share the info about Mari, since she and Arlo get ambushed the next day by Bureau agents. Then again, John finds out on his own, so the drug plan still gets sunk by him.

The links work. It's probably an issue of a letter looking like another letter thanks to HLM2's font.

the masquerade link kinda works but it just takes me to the dropbox homepage

You could copy them from the campaign's .csf files. Just remove the cutscene directions and combine the two parts of the URL.

It took me a while to figure out how to transcribe the links properly. The two things that helped me:
1) The "j"s look like "_i" (underscore + lowercase i), and
2) The "&" looks like an eight.

Hope this helps!

Yes, that is all of them. Nicely done!
