Hi all, there does not seem to be a comprehensive list of missions & their solutions any where on this forum, though there exists various pieces of information scattered across. Could we start a comprehensive list of missions, from all factions?

regards

Good idea, but I for one can't remember all their names. I know there are 26 missions for each faction tho. If there are any specific mission players need help with they should post it here and I'll help as best I can. You can then edit the OP to include the mission name and solution to ease the finding of any particular solution.

Will do, I will start with a list of the ones that I have come across. One initial quation though. How to you end th emission which tells you to assassinate "Gonzalo" somebody. The mission is given by the govt. side. I seem to wait for ever for the guy who never shows up & the mission ends as a failure

Ahh, that's a tricky one. You are supposed to wait until night and he'll appear at one of the entry points. I'm not sure if it's the same day as the mission is given or the day after. In the town of Sagrada there are a few NPC's that are called "Local". They are not normal civilians, and once you kill Gonzalo Teteira they'll turn hostile. If you kill them, there are 3 or 4 of them, before Gonzalo arrives, he will be hostlie when he gets there.

Here's what I do: When given the mission I go to Sagrada and kill those Locals. I then exit to the global map and speed up time. When Gonzalo arrives you'll get a message that there is fighting going on, re-enter the tactical map, locate and kill Gonzalo and Bob's your uncle:)

Thanks R@S but I see no one else posting any mission/solutions. Well then I guess I will start with the list & others can post in. I will collect all the emission names from some of my saved games & start the list. ... anyone ... helping ... R@S ... :roll:

I'd like to help out Ironluca, but I'm very busy with scripting new missions for the B.F.X. Mod. There are 7 new missions finished so far and 3 more is almost done.

As for the mission names, here's the Russian source code. It has the mission names in them, but they're in Russian. Look in \E1P\Quests to see all the Govt/Rebel quests, you can use google translator to get some more hints.

So I've dragged Pacquito around the non-restricted zone looking for some luggage and I'm in the town in the center of the region map, starts with 'S' (forgot the name :confused:).

Pacquito's usual drunken monologue changed for a moment; he mentioned something about having to talk (with me?). I forgot to check where he was located on the sector map when that occurred. I spent the next half our trying to figure out how to get a 'talk to' cursor to click on him with my main player, but no cigar :mad:.

Then I made them sprint around the sector map hoping to recreate that monologue change. It hasn't happened so far :(.

I concluded with joining this forum in the hopes that someone out there found this 'luggage' and can point me in the right direction (spoiler :!:); I'm assuming it's different from the 'standard' suitcases.

In your journal, where you check mission status, there is a tab called "Unit". There you'll find all the mercs you have on your team. Under their picture there is an option to "Talk" to them. It's where you extend your contracts and other things. That's where you'll find the solution to your problem;)

I would like to support this effort, I can answer a number since I have been playing this game non-stop for 4 weekends and enjoying every moment!

But I do need help on "THE MINERS" mission. every time i kill NUNEZ with his silenced pistol it always starts combat? How do I eliminate nunez and succeed in making these guys ally with Tanya?

The mission is given by the govt. side. I seem to wait for ever for the guy who never shows up & the mission ends as a failure

just wait one hour at a time and you will see a blue dot "GUY" in one of the entrances or near the MAYOR, you can talk to him and let him escape, or simply kill him.

Look for the BLUE DOT "LOCALS" and talk to them to see that they are really "FIGHTER". Mark these guys as you will have to kill them (or cops will) when you decide to eliminate the rebel agent.

The rebel agent snapshots really fast so do draw your weapon before talking to him if you intend to kill him.

enjoy!

I have the same problem. I tried everything possible, but there seems to be no way to kill NUNEZ without being attacked by CASTIGO.

To kill Nunez silently, first make sure all your mercs are out of sight from the natives, if they are seen by the natives when the shot is fired they turn hostile. Make sure you do it at night when it is dark, I usually succeed between 2-3 am. Use the silenced USP provided by Nunez and shoot him in the head a few yards away.

It might take a few re-loads, but it works eventually if you find the right spot to shoot from. Oh, and make sure there are no civvies around, I usually point my gun at them and they run away out of sight.

In the room where the target is standing, second floor in the room with the desks, move the cursor over the desk closest to the door. Left-click and place the basket in that desk. Once that is done speed up time to let 5 mins or more pass and you'll eventually get a notice that the target is dead.

Mr Sister's lover, aka Elliot, can be found in Artrigo. Check the mini-map for his exact location. He'll need you to help him with something, so you need to travel to Santa-Maria after talking to him the first time.

No need to do the archaeologist mission if you have the right uniform and can bluff your way inside the prison through the front gate. Tanya should be in a cell on the second floor, the last cell on the left. She should also show on the mini-map as a blue dot. If she isn't there, which is very weird, I don't know what the issue is and how to help you.

If you find that mission hard, you'll cry blood when you start looking for the mission pages from it;)

About the manuals, there has been some controversy about it and there are two camps.

One side believes that it works as they did in Brigade E5, they'll increase the speed in which you gain skill in said weapons when carried in the inventory. Sniper skill when using SVD, heavy weapon skill when using grenade launchers and so forth.

The other side, the one I belong to, thinks that they make no difference. In Brigade E5 you could only gain 5 points every week in those skills, in 7.62 you can gain 5 points every day. This would mean that you theoretically can have a 100 point in 20 days and that would seriously f-up the balance of the game and the devs decided to remove that function.

But if anyone feel like trying it out, I would be glad to be proved wrong in my assumptions:D

03-12-2010, 08:48 AM
yep, nice question (the manuals)

i carried the stuff around. in inventory and/or in the truck but it kinda was to no good. I was putting my hopes in the mechanic in Ciad de Oro or something like that but that one was a fail :-(, hoped for the same principle as in E5.
No good. Personaly they could had at least set that papers to be readable and afterwards increase skill in those thing lets say by 1 or improve some of the handlings of the character like faster shots per second, faster reloading, faster cleaning or ataching and detaching of the addons or at least to improve the care of the char for the particular item so its easier to keep it clean for longer or decreased propability of jamming the gun when its dirty like s..., or even to improve damage of the weapon and so if the character who read the manual is carrying it.

Maybe once someone will figure out how to implement something from the above.

I hope someone wont get mad at me for posting this but I can understand the dudes who are worry about these two quests. ALthough the book of koans i found even before I got the mission as I am quite an explorer type guy :-P so what. Man but those pages gaved me quite a headache i thoroughly inspected every single location, every stupid box. trashcan even a phonebooth OMG. mostly found useless things except some scopes, mines, explosives, and silencers or even weapons wih silencers, but actually all the running around with the camera and my guys wasnt really worth it-There should be some help like the show openable objects as in comandos for example=DOnt mind during some special events and fights in jungles to go through it manualy but in towns=its a death penalty.

Btw i managed to find all the missing pages, yet I am unable to figure out how to hide the spoiler and make it highlightable in this reply as the letter colours arent accessible so i cant write it now :-(. If anyone can write the locations for the poor guys who cant find those thing just send me a PM witha request for it and I repply with their locations :-D

Nope, only in your car once u get it. The bigger car the more place u get. Basicaly i bought myself the first little jeep and than had a mission with and URAL as reward :-D The quest with Ural appears after quite some time so buy atleast something to cary u around, but dont invest much, its not so worthy.

E5 could also store items in safes in Banks but here the banker is an i.... I killed him before i finished the game during a guerilla raid :-D Pre planned missfire :-D as he was totaly worthless through the game.

The Back Stab mission. The one where you escort Willi Krauf. I am ready to go but the dialogue offered says i have something to do first. Am I missing something? I already spoke to the driver and business partner.

You need to drop off your car at the bartender before you'll get the dialog option to leave.

EDIT:

You could do me a favor by checking the exact syntax of the dialog option you get when having a car and not being able to continue the mission. If you do I can add the "first leave your car" in the dialog. I found two very similar entries in the e6q.txt and am not sure which one to edit.

It's either 1:
"Wait a second, I just need to do this thing here..."

Or 2:
"Wait a minute, I need to take care of one thing here..."

Or it might be something else.

Its both. Those dialogue options both appear for selection before you take off for the willi krauf.

Yes that would be great to say " I need to find someone to watch my car first" or some such hint.

So umm the mission named "Grand Finale" (last mission for Rebels, I assume). I'm supposed to find some tapes in Sosa's office? However, all the paintings in the building seem rather... inert. They can't be interacted with. How do I find the tapes? :(

Guy named Costa in Santa Maria has a clue where both Castillo brothers are. The info is part of a mission (the revenge mission for the mechanic). Hope this helps :)

The safe is in the room with no windows in the main government building in Artrigo. The safe is triggered by the player reaching a certain spot, so go to that room and wander around a bit and you'll find it.

Got it done. It also has to be the main character, your avatar, that needs to be selected in order for the cursor to change when you hover it over the right object. This was the problem. The cursor doesn't change if you have some other merc selected. ALTHOUGH it could've been the zoom level, too. I usually keep rather zoomed out view, and that's why the cursor change may have not triggered. Also, upon zooming in on the room, I noticed the light switches were operational. Go figure :P Wonder what else I've missed.

Take notes, kids.

You need to complete that mission before you can trade with that faction. The trader is Calderon himself, so go back to the mission giver and end that mission, then go back to Calderon and you'll get the trading option in the dialog.

Found the tunnel into the prison. When my team surfaced into a room inside the prison, had to take out about 6 rebels just outside. Sent two squads around the inside perimiter in opposite directions. One squad found Tanya at the main gate. When we approached her, she ran for the exit, then turned to shoot us. I kicked her unconsous and disarmed her (twice! - rifle & pistol). When she recovered, she was still combative. Looks like I have to kill her.

There were still some rebels alive in the prison building. Will Tanya surrender if we take out all of them before we approach her?

Seemed like the only 2 options I now have is to kill her or let her get away. I presume either result will fail the mission.

I read this thread about using the uniforms. Is that the only way to complete the mission?

R@S
04-23-2010, 06:37 PM
The rebels aren't supposed to be hostile, there must be some other issue at work here.

If you use the tunnel, Tanya will be killed after a period of time after you breached the prison perimiter. That time depends on what difficult level you're playing, so I can't give you an exact time frame.

The best way to do this mission is to save the uniform from the guy you killed with a snake in a previous mission. If you go to El Vertigo with only your main merc and wearing that uniform, you can bluff your way through the main gate without worrying about any time limit.

Oh, I just saw that you're working foir the Govt, why worry about her surviving? Just kill her if you can and get back to the mission giver, but I think she's supposed to survive, the rest of the campaign depends on it.

OneMug
04-24-2010, 04:51 PM
Turns out it doesn't fail the mission if Tanya is killed vs. being brought in alive.

Rather than start the rescue mission over, trying a different approach, I cleared the remaining rebels out of the sector. (Holy crap there was a lot of weapons & gear laying about at the end of the battle! Almost all the guards had been wasted by the rebels!)

Then I reported back the government. They didn't care that Tanya got killed. I didn't get paid as much (but I'll make even more from selling the equipment dropped.) Then they reported a phony trial in which Tanya was convicted and executed. Lying bastards.

I wonder if anyone one else playing for the Govt was able to bring Tanya back alive and how they did it? OneMug

Hi, dudes, im stuck in grand finale mission.
I acquired stuff from safe, and both dictator and armanda F are dead...
When i get into map MEETING WITH TANYA, :confused:she isnt there :confused:.
Also, mission status in logbook isnt updated, it does not list
that targets are dead, and tape acquired.

The main issue is, that Tanya is nowhere to be found, and thus game plot stops.

Please advise if you can.

PS. if all enemy is eliminated in city, i got second or so of peace, then i got message "there are more of them bastards", and reinforcements come in, i think its ok, i just grab tape and sneak out of the city.

@KopfSchuss2000
According to the quest script you need to capture and hold Artrigo and Sagrada before the Tanya meeting location is revealed. It might take a few hours before it appears, it calculates the travelling time for Tanya from the Rebel camp to this new location. Once you've captured Artriga, wait on the strategic map for a while and the new location should appear.

@stonyhead
I think ArchAngel has posted it somewhere on this board, but to save you some time, here's the locations:
Artrigo
Cuidad-de-Oro

3. "Robbery" - I completed it, but it's still on the list for uncompleted missions.

1: check the color of the flag in your quest inventory slot. just follow the order from top and the mine should be deactivated.

2: Moving fast and avouid being shot;) No, just use the cover available, move in with one of your mercs, throw a few nades, move very close and finish them off with hip-shots. It's one of the toughest missions in the game and there are many tactics that might work. Try and try again until you find one that works for you.

3: Sometimes that happens, if you explain better which mission you're talking about I can prolly fix it in the code. Some of the random missions had the same problem and those have been fixed, I can easily do the same with this one if I knew which file to alter.

You're a huge help, man. The "Robbery" mission is the one where the gun runner in Santa Maria asks me to recover a crate of merchandise that was stolen form him. In return I get 16000 eldo and the MP5SD5, the mission was completed when I returned the stuff and talked to the guy, but it's still among current missions. lol.

Btw., I'm running the unofficial patch 1.06.

07-02-2010, 04:38 PM
Oops, that is a random mission and was supposed to have been fixed with the patch. I guess I have to check it again. thanks for spotting it:)

EDIT: I checked it and it seems like I missed a line in the e6q.modinfo file. Since it requires a new game for it to be correctly activated, I'd recommend continuing your current game before fixing it. Anyways, here's what the e6q.modinfo file should say:
MOD "Quests\mods\RAS\BlueSun"

Anyone got any advice for the jungle camp wipeout mission? I'm supposed to kill everyone there, including Tanya Tormens. I can't seem to find a good solution.

I tried proning and taking them out from the overlooking road (where the two spawn points are), but the enemies have a good enough look at me that after I pick off a few, the 30 other guys manage to get in a few good hits, and then things fall apart. There's no place there to sit and avoid their fire, so even though I have a higher quality of mercs/bullets, their quantity more than makes up for it.

I also tried going in at night, and sneaking around opposite the spawn points, to where the firepit with the skeptics is located. Here there is another slight incline overlooking the camp, with two entry ramps. I tried luring the enemies back to me (since there are two entrances), but they never seemed to bite. I got maybe 10 to come up and get slaughtered as they crested the hill, but the rest stay in camp, and once again I have no way to approach the camp, or find a place to wait and pick them off (since quickly one of their 100 bullets finds one of my mercs). In terms of CGL I'm at 9, so I have solid assault rifles now, while the enemy has mostly Saigas and AK74s, with a few RPKs and SVDs.

My setup is 6 high quality mercs, 4 with assault rifles and 2 with DMRs. One thing I haven't tried yet is underbarrel grenades, due to my horrible experiences in BE5 with them (they were totally ineffective against armor, so even if you hit a group of 5 bunched up enemies square in the face with a 40mm they'd all take 0 damage). I guess that's worth a shot though, since there's lots of enemies fairly close together.

Are you playeing the vanilla game or are you using any mod? If vanilla you should have the silenced SR-25 and a ghillie suit, both very useful in this mission.

I usually split my team in two(I usually only have 2 or 3 mercs in my team), one doas the flanking manouver you discribed and the other team stays by the exit point. When you have 2 teams you can distract enemies and make the run in circles, just use loud weapons and supression fire from the exit point team, while the flanking team uses silenced weapons to kill most of the baddies.

I often use a scout to sneak into camp, crawling along the left side of the map until I breach the perimiter. Then you can attack them from behindk while your other mercs pick them off from a distance causing them to run back and forth.

Oh, and I always play this misison at night, otherwise they'll spot you too easy and your stealth/silence tactics aren't very effective.

I'm playing with your BSM. I've got one guy in ghillie + silenced m14 (seems to have better accuracy and speed than the SR25), 3 with silenced ARs (a G36, FAMAS, and HK416), 1 unsilenced AR (AN-94) and one unsilenced m21 (I guess not quite a DMR like I said, but close enough).
In the morning I'll try m21 + AN94 by the exit and maybe 2 ARs at one end of the map and an AR + m14 at another. (edit: morning my time, obviously you're right and silenced guns/sneaking will only work at night).

Thanks for the help!

'The HQ' is the mission title:P

It is the government side mission where you take your team to Cali Calientos and kill a bunch of military commanders or the alternative, which I cannot get to work, to get some dynamite and a timer and blow up a supply warehouse.

You get the dynamite from the Logistical Officer in the capital, but I cannot find the timer. After a certain amount of searching I tried it with just the dynamite, that went awry. No way to 'sneak past' the guard. I could not get a silent kill on him any way I tried and enemy troops are placed so that both of the guards (on two different entrances to the same building) are in sight of others about 99% of the time. I then attemped to just run into the building and set the dynamite via the interaction with a specific box in the warehouse, then run out of the town, which went fine, but the mission never updated and one assumes the dynamite never went off.

Is there a timer I missed somewhere or is there perhaps another bug? I could just go in and gun everyone down, but I was hoping for some serious commando type stuff...

Thanks

@Daxxad
Please tell me more about the mission, from the name I'm not sure which mission you're referring to.

@devintownsend
I haven't played that mission since I got the English version of the game, and before that I always just went there and killed everyone, it's more fun that way.

But since I've been looking into the code I know a few things about it. You need to use Pereira to get past the guards, and you should use the Palinero uniforms on your team as well. most of the events in that mission are triggered when you reach certain locations, I think the Pereira dialog is one of those situations. And the dynamite you get from the depot traders is all you need, when you reach the right spot it'll be planted and the mission should be completed. Hope it helps.

R@S, do you know anything about this "secret boat", or any other means to obtain a colonel uniform as worn by Emberto Lim?

Sorry, I can't remember which map the Secret Boat is located. You can buy any uniform at Billy-Bob's after CGL 6, I think the resque tanya mission is after that level so that should work out for you.

Hi R@S, let me put it in images and with a timeline... (i dont have saves before sorry)

I received the mission to trasnport a breifcase and the warning that some enemies could try to attack me.

Some enemies attacked me, but, in the start of the battle my main character appears in a dialog and says "i have to capture the leader alife to interrogate
him", believe me there are no enemy marked "Leader" but at the end i found him and leave him alive until everyones elese was dead and he surrenders. He told me the contents of the briefcase.... and then i went to a trader

after that the log of the mission shows

(here i posted my question in the forum)

afterwards i continued playing.....

looking for a "buyer" i take some days... and then the log changed:

well, i went to the mayor and confront him

http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/9769/ss20100719144623.png

again a very hard fight because the character who talks with the mayor have 7 soldiers in front of him :).....

well i killed them all (al the city guards went hostile)

and the mission was failed and the log shows:

I read the code last night and saw that you ether should kill the bandit leader before talking to him and not find out what's in the suitcae, or if you do find out, give it back to the quest giver. The first one is the only one that lets you complete it successfully.

So, I talked to Palacio, the guy in Artrigo with the ridiculously long job title, and got the mission to save his man from the rebel camp. I go there, figure out that Ramon is my guy by eliminating Marco and Fernando off the list, but...

He isn't there. No Ramon. I have talked to every soul in the camp, and not one is named Ramon. Ideas?

@ UselessHeathen&shooter

You got to talk to tanya and start the mission to kill the prisoner for her.
Take one bloodpack out of the crates next to the doctor, and take the blank ammo from the white-reddish crates next to the bigger hut.

Don't remember who's the right guy, but you have to speak about his favourite whisky in order to uncover his real name. Of course, everybody in the camp has an opinion on whisky, so the dialog may be tricky/funny.

I'm stuck on the goverment mission entitled "The Press", where I'm supposed to stop the leaflets being printed.
I've talked to the publisher who says he is being blackmailed and that someone comes by at "9 o'clock" each night to pick up the leaflets.
I've waited around for a full night and nobody came by, either at 21:00 or at 9:00 in the morning.
Is there something I'm missing?

Spoilers --> If you've done the mission for the rebels to escort their guy (Sevano Urbano or something like that) to the town, that's who you're looking for. He'll usually walk over to the manager around 2100 or so, then walk back to the safehouse where they're holding the manager's wife.

Off him and the guys, but try to keep the wife alive (IIRC there's 3 guys and the Urbano dude) and then you'll be mission complete.

And as for my question, how do I get the truck, again?

I've successfully completed the ambush portion of the ambush mission, but I'm not sure how to actually get the truck.

Am I doing the wrong mission? :confused:

~E~ Nevermind, lol.

I was doing the wrong mission.

My advice for the Eliminate the Rebel Camp mission is to setup along the top road away from default entrance point. Have a nice solid MG aimed at the path used to get down into the camp and a couple of riflemen beside him (to pick off the tricky ones) but well away from the edge of the "cliff". Then move your marksman towards the edge for a shot or two to stir them up then back him away and wait for them to come up to you.

The sound from the MG should keep them storming up the hill and into the killzone. Be sure to use the dead ground of the center of the road to protect your men from shots from the camp, even at night eventually they will get you.

If for whatever reason they stop coming up move your marksman back to the edge for another shot or two or just lob some grenades down towards them. When I went through the last few refused to budge but thankfully it was few enough and they were spread out enough that I could get them in a quick advance. If the bodies pile up too high around the killzone throw some grenades or even the otherwise useless TNT towards them in the hopes of clearing it out. I ran it during the day, but should work at night provided you have a set of NVG’s for your gunner.

It’s kind of a sleazy approach to the mission but it works.

Suggested armament:
1 x FN Minimi with 200rnd box clip if available (cuts down on having to reload during the fight since it's needed to maintain the killzone);
1 x Silenced DMR of your choice;
2ish x accurate rifles or assault rifles to pick off guys your MG can't hit; and
Lots of grenades, because honestly you can't throw enough of these during almost any mission.
See the attachment for a screenshot of the setup
(I might have drawn mortarmen and not riflemen, sorry about that)

Can anyone tell me where Gonzo Tartera is hiding? The guy you are after in the "A Group" mission, given to you by Juan Rebenga? Can't find the damn bastard anywhere, turned Segrada upside down, killed some armed civilians, which I assumed were his bodyguards, but he is nowhere to be seen =(

He appears after some time. When you come to Sagrada after receiving this mission, main char says something along the lines "Now all I gotta do is wait". And wait you do. If you like waiting a long time - wait with time acceleration 7,5 in map, while running around the map with your squad. This will net you some increased strength and agility AND WILL cause several crashes ;)

Another way - leave sector and let the time flow, without leaving the city. Wait some hours and enter map. In my case the guy appeared :)

If you cant figure out how long to wait - wait a few days, and track when the quest fails. This is the time when Tartera leaves the city, load and enter the city before he leaves. Also - kill his guards after the guy appears, might be some mess otherwise, given the quirky nature of the game :)

A long time ago R@S gave me a good solution to this mission.

When you arrive in the city, kill the armed civillians(saiga shotguns),
those are his buddys.
Then just let time advance while on the map screen and you will get a battle note when he enters the sector. Just waste him then.
Its kind of a work around, but the mission is coded shoddy to begin with and just a pain to complete like the devs wanted you to.

the mission you get from Loyd is an side quest. more side quests can you get in the bar if you talk to the bartender.

Yeah true, but the last Jingo's mission was exactly that: go to this place, talk to the guy, come back and tell me what he said. Seemed like poor scripting to me. If you're supposed to have a fight there why aren't they hostile immediatly upon entry and you "retrieve" the item from the guys cold dead hand...

I just wanted to know it wasn't because I'd taken stuff from the boxes or entered a room I wasn't supposed to and didn't break the whole next chain of missions.

Badbru, coincidentally, I just finished the Jingo "Truce" mission today. I assume that's the "last Jingo mission" you're talking about in this thread, which seems to have changed topic a bit.

POSSIBLE SPOILER:
The "peace negotiator" told us to come over to talk to him. I ignorned him in order to tactically depoying my mercs. Nothing happened while I was doing this. My mercs were able to walk around freely as long nobody got too close to the "peace negotiator". We even planted a few mines on approaches to our positions, where the Jings couldn't see me!

As soon as one of my mercs got within a few meters of the "negotiator", the Js went hostile. After the battle ended, I got the same instructions to report back to Billy Bob.

Badbru
09-16-2011, 06:35 AM
Re-reading my last post it may be confusing. I have no problem with the last Jingos "Truce" mission. There was text/speach from the negotiator saying "Ah I see you have Rob Yu with you, this changes everything." Thus, well scripted and an obvious reason why there is no fight there and it turns into another Fed ex mission. That one is all good.

The Tang mission however starts the same, in that you can go to the location, walk around, look in boxes etc etc no problem... you go find Jose and talk to him, also no problem you say "Tang sent me to get something"
and Jose says "Sure here it is." so you take it turn to walk off and he shoots you in the back. This gave me a WTF moment. I thought I'd done something to turn them hostile and, because I couldn't see a reason in the verbal exchange for them to go hostile I thought it was going to be another Fed ex mission. If it's not, I can't see a reason why they're not hostile from the moment you enter?

I hope I've not derailed the thread because in a way I'm still talking about how missions resolve themselves.

Alright everyone... I seem to be stuck on the mission where Rebenga has you go to Ciduad del Oro to lay waste to the rebels and indigenous resistance group. As soon as I accept the mission, I stop over in Sagrada to stock up on munitions, and all of the federal police want to kill me!

The same thing happens when I'm actually in Ciduad del Oro - as soon as the I enter and the battle starts, I'm attacked by the federal police scattered around the town. Consequently, I blow them all away and after hours of obliterating everyone, I make my way back up to report to Rebenga, only to be attacked by the cops as soon as I enter the sector.

Anyone else encounter this problem?

10-11-2011, 11:25 PM
Yes, this happened to me after I cleared CdO. I think that during the battle against 63 enemies, a grenade or two got a police man or guardia. When I initially got the mission, I didn't stop anywhere, so I don't know if I would have had the problem before the battle.

There's a thread on this forum about buying Amnesty from Calderon. I bought one to get on the government's good side, then rebels ($100K). Now I can go anywhere until I choose sides.
