Update version 1.1 March 3, 2010
I have added all four underground missions. All missions are now “bookmarked”
with the numerous individual missions imbedded in menus within the document.
They are accessed via the main menu’s general heading. Individual buddy
missions, for example, can be located via the broad main menu heading-BUDDY
MISSIONS. I have also included many additional diamond locations and mission
details throughout the document.
INTRODUCTION
A small diamond-rich African country, aflame with civil war, provides the stage
for Far Cry 2. Two opposing factions, the APR (Alliance For Popular Resistance)
and the UFLL (United Front For Liberation and Labor), are at odds; and a
notorious arms dealer, the Jackal, is stoking the fires by providing arms to
both sides. Caught in the middle are the hapless civilians whose efforts to flee
the widespread conflict are being vigorously obstructed by both factions. You
will take the role of a foreign agent tasked with the mission to find and kill
the Jackal.
The setting for the game is an open-world of 50 square kilometers, divided into
two sprawling sectors: Leboa-Seka in the north and Bowa-Seka in the south. It is
a landscape of great diversity. Deserts, dry savannahs, mountains, rivers, lakes
and jungles, are all woven together by primitive dirt roads and winding rivers.
During the course of the game you will walk, sprint, swim, drive vehicles, pilot
boats, take buses and even fly, using the occasional hang glider. Except for
steep grades, mountains and locked structures you can go nearly anywhere if you
are bold enough to do so. Vehicles and boats are readily available, and bus
stations provide fast and safe transport through the dangerous countryside.
Though a tenuous cease-fire exists in the towns, the country abounds with
hostile guard posts, villages and installations. Patrolling vehicles and patrol
boats make travel by road or water hazardous as well.
Joining the struggle is a motley group of ex-pats: the buddies. They will offer
alternate strategies for missions, ask for your help with personal quests or
vendettas and they may provide assistance when you are injured or dying. Their
primary hangout will be Mike’s Bar.
The currency of the game is rough diamonds, which you can earn by completing
missions for the factions or by accepting assassination missions, which are
offered anonymously. The landscape also contains 221 widely scattered diamond
briefcases that can be harvested during your travels. These diamonds will allow
you to purchase items necessary to pursue your ventures.
Far Cry 2, as outlined in this walkthrough, will take at least 35 hours to
complete; and, the game play, for a video game, is quite realistic. There are no
aliens, no bosses and no plasma rifles. The hostiles are men and nothing more,
and both their weapons and yours are actual existing weapons with realistic
capabilities. The incredible landscape, its immensity and the frequency of
hostile elements in it will require the player to use tactics as well as force
to survive and to succeed.

THE GAME PLAN: TACTICS AND WEAPONS
Because of the open-world nature of Far Cry 2, there is no linear path to follow
and no "right way' to play the game. This walkthrough will chronicle a game
completed on "hardcore" and will utilize reconnaissance, infiltration and
probing hit-and-run guerilla tactics rather than deliberate in-your-face
confrontation. Avoidance of the numerous guard posts and of the traveling
patrols will be advised. That being said, the unpredictable course of enemy
activities and the hazards of travel in this sprawling world will ensure plenty
of spontaneous action.
All missions will be outlined. The set of weapons carried for each mission will
be listed as will be the time of day, or night, best suited for the operation.
Other than the opening tutorial, the transition to Bowa-Seka and the endgame,
the game play will largely be determined by your mission choices.
Only the main sequence missions and underground missions to obtain malaria
medication are necessary to complete the game. Assassination, buddy, subverted
and even the convoy missions are optional. These optional missions, however,
provide the lions-share of the action. Available missions can be acquired
wherever a mission flag is present on your map.
After completion of the opening tutorial, the first order of business will be to
harvest enough diamonds in the Pala area to purchase the IEDs that are necessary
to pursue the convoy missions. This walkthrough advocates doing all four convoy
missions prior to tackling the more challenging missions that follow. During the
convoy missions you will be given the locations of enough diamonds to purchase
your initial set of weapons, which will be essential to the completion of
subsequent missions as outlined. Thereafter locations will generally not be
given in this walkthrough. It will, most often, be up to you to investigate when
your locator flashes. My companion diamond guide, available on this website,
gives the location and tactics needed to find the balance of the diamond cases,
as well as all golden AK-47s and all jackal tapes.
Upon completion of the convoy missions you may choose any available mission.
These mission outlines can be found in their respective category in the index.
-  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -
You may carry three weapons and a machete at all times. These weapons, however,
are segregated into primary, secondary and special categories that restrict your
possible combinations. If you carry a sniper rifle as your primary weapon, for
example, your secondary or special weapon should be an assault rifle or machine
pistol. If your special weapon is the silent dart rifle, then a shotgun or
assault rifle is a good choice as your primary weapon. In this outline, the M-79
grenade launcher will dominate as your secondary weapon. The grenade launcher is
a superb assault truck killer and is integral in the completion of many
missions.
The explosive and incendiary devices are also potent weapons. The dry-grass
environment and the frequency of combustible barrels, tanks and ammunition piles
make fire a powerful weapon, and an excellent way to discourage pursuit.
Following is the list of items to purchase or pilfer for this walkthrough, along
with their cost, category and suggested order of purchase. During the course of
the game, however, you will acquire enough diamonds to indulge in the purchase
of many other weapons you may covet, especially if you track down diamond cases.
Note: weapon specifications can be accessed on the game disk by going to
“upgrades”. Refer to this section for this information.

GOLDEN AK-47 LOCATIONS: LEBOA-SEKA
East sector: The golden Ak-47 is on a table in a shack on the extreme southeast
portion of the east sector map. It will be to the east and on the opposite side
of the east sector’s weapon shop.
Southwest sector: The golden AK-47 is in a cave on the northeast side of the
shoe-shaped mountain to the northeast of the southwest weapon shop. Knock the
boards out of the entrance of the cave to get the weapon.
Northwest sector: The golden AK-47 is in a boarded-up cave on the southwest tip
of the mountain west of the cattle ranch. This area is thick with hostiles, so
tread warily.
Southeast sector: The golden AK-47 is lying east of the lake which is southwest
of the bus station and due west of the guard post but on the opposite side of
the mountain from the guard post.
Weapon upgrades: if you frequently change weapons at the shop, jams will be
rare. The weapons most likely to jam are the dart rifle, AS50 sniper rifle and
the AR-16. Reliability upgrades for them are definitely recommended.
Note: An excellent way to save diamonds is to purchase the weapons crates and
pilfer weapons from the environment. Buy the primary crate for 16 diamonds and
store a golden AK-47, which by the way, is a simple AK-47 that is extremely
durable. Buy the secondary for 8 diamonds and the special weapons crate for 24,
then enter Mokuba shanty town using the procedure outlined in "ASSASSINATION
MISSION: MOKUBA SHANTYTOWN", take down the sentry on the platform to get a free
RPG-7 rocket launcher and a Mac-10 machine pistol to store in those crates. A
Carl G. rocket launcher is also available on the barge ride after entering Bowa-
Seka and at several other times during the game play. While weapons taken in
this way are oftentimes in less than prime condition, these weapons will not see
hard usage and the RPG-7 will serve you well during the game's first half, and
the Carl G. rocket launcher during the second half. Since the weapons crates are
on the purchase list anyway, buying them rather than an AK-47, Mac-10, RPG-7
rocket launcher and Carl G. rocket launcher would save you 75 diamonds.
The game map is as important as are the weapons. Without it you would be lost
and would stay lost. Unlike many in-game maps the one in Far Cry 2 remains
oriented to the points of the compass, with only the directional arrows for
yourself and the mission indicators moving. North will be up, south down, west
will be to the left, as you view the map, and east will be to the right. Because
there is no straight forward linear path to the game, all directional
instructions will be given as compass points using mountains, bus stations, safe
houses, even Joshua trees and the like as reference points. While many missions
have starting points dependant on random factors, many do have a definite
starting location, like Mike's Bar or Pala. When this is the case, an optimum
path to the objective will be given.
A word on guard posts and vehicle patrols. It would seem that the re-spawning
guard posts are a problem for many Far Cry 2 players. The open nature of the
game, however, allows you to bypass nearly every one. More often than not you
can drive off-road to do this; others will require bypassing on foot. You have
an option. Drive the roads near guard posts and challenge their turret guns,
pursuit vehicles, barricades and troops with cover to fire from; or take
advantage of the terrain the game offers in abundance and avoid them. Frequently
the off-road routes are shorter than the same route by road.
When on foot the frequent vehicle patrols can usually be avoided by taking cover
whenever you hear their approach. The grenade launcher will take care of the
chance encounters or, if your passage is detected, any vehicle dispatched to
intercept you. Many of the missions as outlined will fail if guard posts near
mission areas are attacked; so, if mayhem is your thing, indulge when the
mission complete flashes to accomplish both goals.

FAR CRY 2 WALKTHROUGH
TUTORIAL:
Enjoy the lengthy ride into Pala with your chatty but informative cabbie. Many
of the scenes you observe on this ride will become familiar as the game plays
out. Trust me when I say the militiamen and their assault trucks along your
route won't be an uncommon sight.
As you approach Pala you will have the first of many malaria attacks. You will
regain consciousness and be at the mercy of the man whom you have been sent to
kill-the Jackal. Listen to his diatribe as you combat your malaria symptoms.
Soon you will pass out again only to awaken to the sound of gunfire. The Jackal
has allowed you to live.
The slaughterhouse scenario that follows is one of the four possible situations
you can find yourself in following your escape from Pala. All of these missions
follow the same course, with only minor changes. Only this one scenario will be
outlined as an example.
-  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -
NORTHWEST: SLAUGHTER HOUSE
After your initial encounter with the Jackal you will be caught in the middle of
a failed cease-fire. Follow the tutorial prompts as you escape the hotel by
moving over the pile of rubble and through the hole onto the upper balcony. Go
left to the first doorway, pick up the G3-KA4 assault rifle and jump to the
windowsill, crouch and go forward through the open window. Turn left and move
along the metal roof. Jump down, and sprint through the barricade and then go
northwest toward the bridge. You will then collapse in the throes of another
malaria attack.
You regain consciousness at the slaughterhouse, where the tutorial will
continue. Follow the numerous instructional prompts and then pick up your
weapons, a G3-KA4 assault rifle, a flamethrower and a Makarov pistol.
Circumstances have put you in the debt of UFLL Lieutenant Anto Kankaras and he
wants you to clear the APR scouts from a position encroaching on UFLL territory.
Repair the car and drive it south after absorbing the tutorial prompts. Park
your vehicle near the windmill. Cautiously approach the house and kill the two
intruders. Enter the newly liberated safe house. After a call from Kankaras, the
tutorial will take you through the alarm clock procedure. It will allow you to
advance time by up to twelve hours. Set the time for nighttime, 10:00 PM or
later and upon waking, Kankaras will ask you to scout another APR position at
the cock-fighting arena.
Before going south, stock-up on syrettes and ammo in the shack near the main
road. Since you parked your car near a landmark, the windmill, you can find it.
Drive south from there and stop when prompted. Take the narrow dirt path on the
right side of the road, and follow the prompts to scout the facility with your
monocular. Kankaras will again call asking you to rescue a foreign hostage from
a bricked-up building in the compound.
Move west from your position to get clear the facility and then circle back to
approach the objective from the south. As you move back toward the facility,
sprint and jump to get over the rocks near where the cliff wall ends to gain the
area southwest of the brick-up building. This will prevent you from having to
use the gully for your approach. Careful monitoring of the sentries should allow
you to move through the hole in the metal fence on the southwest side of the
objective and into the bricked-up building. Free the captive. He or she will now
become your Leboa-Seka buddy number one for as long as he is alive or until you
reject his subverted missions and fall out of favor.
After Kankaras' call, drive north to meet him. Your payment will be 10 rough
diamonds, if you can find them, and some sound advice on malaria. The tutorial
will walk you through the procedure to locate the diamond briefcase, which is in
a boxcar south of the main building. Take Kankaras' advice and head for Mike'
Bar.
-  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -
MIKE'S BAR:
Drive your vehicle to Mike's Bar. It will be helpful to take notice of the red
(main objective), blue (secondary objective) and yellow (underground objective)
arrow indicators on the road signs as you drive. Learn to comfortably open and
close your map to help negotiate the rather convoluted road system.
Once near Mike's Bar, enter the weapon shop and interact with the computer. You
have 10 diamonds and three choices: the Homeland shotgun, the G3-KA4 assault
rifle and the Makarov pistol. This walkthrough recommends the Homeland shotgun.
It will serve you well and cost you only 4 diamonds. Go to the armory next door
and take the shotgun off the wall, then drop it and pick-up your assault rifle.
The longer range of the assault rifle will make it the better option while
conducting the convoy missions.
Exit the weapon shop and walk to Mike's Bar. Buddy number one will speak to you,
telling you, among other things, to talk to Reuben, the reporter. Reuben should
be able to help you acquire malaria medication. Talk to Reuben, a rare "good
guy," and be sure to pick up the tape before speaking to buddy number two. Exit
and head for the church in Pala. Delivering Reuben's tape to the priest will get
you your malaria medication, and future Leboa-Seka sector supplies will be
obtained by doing underground missions for the priest.
As you drive toward Pala your GPS locator will flash. The shack just north of
the weapon shop has a diamond briefcase (2) inside. Use your machete to dislodge
the boards to its rear and take the goods. Drive north toward Pala and just
south of town your locator will again flash. Follow your tracker to the west of
the road to find another briefcase (1) near a derelict car.
Go to the church in Pala and interact with Father Maliya. Exchange Reuben’s tape
for your pills. The tutorial portion of the game will conclude as you exit the
church; but prior to your first convoy mission, harvest the diamonds in the Pala
section.

-  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -
PALA AREA DIAMONDS:
The first order of business is to collect the 6 nearby diamonds around the Pala
sector. The first two, in the town’s “forbidden zones,” will be the toughest two
in this entire outline and can be skipped if you find their acquisition too
challenging at this early point in the game.
The first case is in the "forbidden zone" on the southeast side of Pala. Park on
the road leading to Mike's and silently approach the rear of the garage on the
southeast corner. The briefcase (2) is on the left side as you enter the garage
from the rear. You will probably be detected, so simply grab the briefcase and
sprint back to your nearby car. Drive far enough toward Mike's to clear the
alert.
Drive back into town and park on the northwest side near the second "forbidden
zone." Crouch and go through the hole in the wall to enter the building to your
right. Most often you can sneak in and out without detection. The briefcase (2)
is on a table to the left of the entrance. If detected, shoot if necessary; but,
once again, quickly drive out of town to clear the alert.
Drive out of Pala on the northeast road, crossing the bridge. On your map you
will see a rock formation that resembles an open-ended wrench. Your flasher will
not flash, but if you walk west from the road, it will. The briefcase (1) is
near a derelict car.
Travel southwest out of Pala, past the bus station, and over the bridge. Park
when you see a white car dead ahead. Walk north between the rock formations,
toward the river. Your locator will flash and you will find a briefcase (1)
among a pile of small boulders.
Drive back to the weapon shop near Mike's Bar and interact with the computer.
Three new weapons are available: the M1903 sniper rifle, the PKM machine gun and
IEDs. Purchase the IEDs for 10 diamonds and turn left to accept your first
convoy mission from the arms dealer behind the mesh. Go to the armory next door
and take the IEDs from the wall. Visit the explosive and ammo piles to top-off
your ordnance. Refer to "CONVOY MISSIONS: LEBOA-SEKA" to find the particulars of
your first convoy mission.
-  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -
-  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -
CONVOY MISSIONS: LEBOA-SEKA
1)    NORTH CONVOY MISSION
2)    SOUTHWEST CONVOY MISSION
3)    NORTHWEST CONVOY MISSION
4)    EAST CONVOY MISSION
Four convoy missions are available in the Leboa-Seka sector, each unlocking
three new weapons. Each of the four convoy missions in the Bowa-Seka sector will
unlock one or two new weapons. These missions can be taken from any of the
weapon shops whenever the mission flag is active. The locations of the convoys
are random, but the weapons unlocked are not. See the unlocking order below.
Convoy 1 unlocks: Star 45 handgun, Flare pistol, silent Makarov 6P9
Convoy 2 unlocks: AK-47, Mac-10 machine pistol, RPG-7 rocket launcher
Convoy 3 unlocks: Spas-12 shotgun, Silent MP-5 machine gun, LPO-50 flamethrower
Convoy 4 unlocks: Dragonov SVD sniper rifle, M-79 grenade launcher, Dart rifle
Convoy missions can only be taken if a main mission is not in progress, but they
can be taken consecutively. This is what this walkthrough advises, since the
weapons required for subsequent missions, though not extensive, often depends on
having a specific weapon. As it would happen, two or three of the four weapons
required are on the fourth convoy.
There are 221 diamond cases available in the game. During the convoy stage, this
walkthrough will provide the location of more than enough cases to purchase your
initial set of weapons. The least contested diamond briefcases in the area of
each convoy will be listed after the convoy mission details.
When approaching the route of a convoy, it is imperative that you enter the area
and set-up your ambush when the convoy is out of your vicinity. If you are
detected, the convoy and its assault truck escorts will aggressively defend the
shipment, making the task much more difficult.
NOTE: When setting IEDs, once the first is planted, you will have the detonator;
press the left trigger to de-select the detonator and select another IED device.

WEAPONS PURCHASE PLAN:
Your first purchase should be the Homeland shotgun during the tutorial. The
"PALA AREA DIAMONDS" section will yield enough diamonds to purchase the IEDs,
necessary for the convoy missions. You may purchase the M1903 sniper and PKM as
soon as you have enough diamonds or you can wait until after the fourth convoy
is destroyed and purchase the semi-auto Dragunov sniper rifle. Ultimately, the
game plan is to acquire a sniper rifle, the PKM, dart rifle and the grenade
launcher prior to taking on the other missions. As outlined earlier the rocket
launcher, golden AK-47 and other weapons can be found and used, or stored, or
they should be purchased as diamonds are earned. The weapons crates and the
grenadier webbing are other early game purchase priorities.

NORTH CONVOY: LEBOA-SEKA:
Weapons: shotgun or assault rifle, (IEDs), whatever else you have
Time:    doesn't matter
If the mission wasn't acquired at the north weapon shop, the best way to
approach the mission is via the northeast bus station. Take the car and go off-
road, driving on the north side of the road, through the sandy boulder-strewn
scrubland to avoid the guard post and the enemy occupied safe house beyond it.
Aim to connect with the railroad tracks north of the second guard post, taking
care not to drive off the steep incline than begins in that area. Follow the
tracks west and approach the south turn to the weapon shop carefully. Consult
your map to allow the convoy to get clear of the area. An ideal spot for the
ambush is southwest of the weapon shop. Place your string of IEDs near the large
rectangular stones there and then retreat to the hillside. Take a position there
and monitor the trucks as they head for disaster. Detonate to complete the
mission.
Northeast diamond locations:
West of the bus station, about halfway to the nearest guard post, there is an
abandoned shack on the south side of the road. The diamond case (2) is in the
dilapidated shack, sitting on a corner table. This case can be taken with no
opposition if you approach it from the east, taking to the grassy area on its
south side as you near the shack, allowing you to stay out of sight of the guard
post to the west.
Near a large Joshua tree on the east central border of the oasis there is a
diamond case (1) lying among some small boulders. Unless the “King’s Gold”
mission is in progress there will be no opposition at the oasis.
North of the old fort the road makes a cup-like turn. North of it there is a
huge Joshua tree and north of it there is a diamond case. (2)
North diamond locations:
Directly behind the north sector weapon shop there is a boarded-over grotto in
the side of the mountain. Knock out the boards to get the diamonds. (2)
To the northwest of the weapon shop, on the north side of the tracks, there is a
lake. On the north side of the lake, sitting on a rock, there is a diamond case.
(2)
West of the weapon shop, between two mountains, there is a black dot. The dot is
an abandoned shack at the end of a long, steep but drivable path. The diamond
case (2) is inside the shack. There are no hostiles in that area, but there are
vehicle patrols on the main roads to the north and the east.
South of the weapon shop there is a safe house. There is a metal shack just
north of it. Its position is indicated by a black dot on your map. The nearby
road is routinely patrolled, but if the car is eliminated or avoided, you can
get the diamonds (2) without interference from the safe house.
Due north of Shwasana there is a three-sided mountain. On the mountain’s west
side, at its mid-point, there is a derelict blue bus. Jump onto the wooden crate
on its south end and then jump to the roof to get the diamond. (1) There is no
opposition and no routine patrols in this area.
Due north of Shwasana, where the switchback road goes west, there is a wooden
observation platform on the south side of the road. Jump down from the platform
to access the diamond case. (3) This area has no foot or vehicle patrols.
There is an oblong rock formation northwest of Shwasana. On its southwest side
there is an opening that overlooks the fishing village and its harbor. There is
a crate at that spot with a diamond case on it. (1) Unless you have upset the
locals, there will be no opposition in the area.

SOUTHWEST CONVOY: LEBOA-SEKA:
Weapons: shotgun or assault rifle, (IEDs), whatever else you have
TIME:    doesn't matter
Ride the bus to the southwest station. The convoy will follow an elongated
course that will bring it in front of the bus station as it moves east and
behind it as it moves west. Set your IEDs near the large billboard in front of
the station and wait inside the bus stop for the convoy to approach from the
west. When the convoy truck is destroyed, hostiles from the nearby safe house, a
patrolling assault truck that frequents the area and any survivors of the
convoy's escort will be on you quickly. Simply hop a bus and travel to safety,
and then return to harvest the areas diamonds.
Southwest diamond locations:
Directly west of the southwest weapon shop is a small mountain. On its west side
is a briefcase (3) sitting on a derelict car.
There is a safe house north of the weapon shop. Just north of the safe house and
west of the tracks there is a briefcase (1) among a jumble of boulders.
On the northwest side of the big lake near the cliff face there is an abandoned
shack with a briefcase (2) inside.
From the above location go to the north end of the big lake, let the patrol boat
turn south then swim across the lake. Walk down its eastern side and about
halfway down is a briefcase. (3)
From the above location, walk east angling to emerge on the road south of the
safe house. Allow the patrol truck to pass and cross the road and then sprint
north. A briefcase (2) sets in a depression on the east side of the road.
Northeast of the weapon shop is a small pond. The briefcase (2) sets on a rock.
Just east of the bus station is a safe house with three guards. The briefcase is
in a boxcar. Kill the guards, and then knock out the boards to get the
briefcase. (2)

NORTHWEST CONVOY: LEBOA-SEKA:
Weapons:   shotgun or assault rifle, (IEDs), whatever else you have
Time:      night is preferred
From the northwest bus station drive west along the railroad tracks before going
north into the scrub to avoid Petro-Sahel and to reach the safe house to the
west. Either bypass it or stop and take out its two guards so you can advance
time to night. Drive south from that area and when the convoy is off to the east
or south, park west of the tracks and set up your IEDs on the road. Take up a
concealed position on the hillside and watch the destruction happen from there.
Vacate the scene of destruction before you are challenged by the SUV which
patrols the area.
Northwest diamond locations:
Directly north of the northwest bus station is a briefcase (2) on the north side
of the tracks, near a large Joshua tree. Beware of the cliff to the station's
north.
About mid-way between the far northwest safe house and the rail yard is a small
knoll. There is a briefcase (2) on top.
Northeast of the rail yard about mid-way between the tracks and the guard post
is a derelict bus down off the road with a diamond briefcase (2) inside.
South of the bus station is a lake. Near a large boulder in the lake is a sunken
car with a briefcase (3) sitting, underwater, on its roof.

EAST CONVOY: LEBOA-SEKA:
Weapons: shotgun or assault rifle, (IEDs), whatever else you have
Time:    doesn't matter
If the mission isn't taken at the east weapon shop, access the area by swinging
north from the southeast bus station and turning west after the improvised
desert guard post (shown as a black dot on your map) to intersect the road south
of the weapon shop. Set up your string of IEDs on the road west of the weapon
shop and retreat to the dense growth of the hillside south of the road to
detonate.
Southeast diamond locations:
There is a briefcase (2) behind the southeast bus station, near the rear wall.
There is a safe house southeast of the bus station with a double rock formation
east of it. The briefcase (3) is in the cutout on the far east side of those two
formations.
Directly west of the oasis there is a large double rock formation. The briefcase
(2) is between them.
To the east side of the oasis and east of the pond there is a briefcase. (1)
This briefcase (3) is west of the southwestern safe house but is high on the
cliffs. Drive past the safe house and about three-fourths of the way down the
mountain. Park near the sandy incline and walk east along the grassy path and
the rocks to get to it. If you didn't take the safe house, hostiles may await
you when you return to your vehicle.
From the above location, drive to the canyon on the southwestern part of the
southeast sector map. Walk through the canyon and go east until your locator
flashes. (1) Watch for a patrolling truck.
From the above location, walk north a short distance to allow you to get down
the cliffs overlooking the lake. Walk to the west end of the lake to find a
briefcase (1) near an old lean-to. Watch out for a patrol truck monitoring this
roadway.
From the above location, walk along the south end of the mountain on the north
side of the lake. You will find a briefcase (2) at the north end of the lake.
To the south of this there is an abandoned camp with an assault truck. Steal it
and speed through the guard post to return to the southeast bus station area.
North of the southeast bus station there is a black dot in the desert. It is an
improvised guard post with three guards. A briefcase (2) sets on the roof of a
derelict bus. Use the hood of your vehicle to access it.
North of the guard post, on the north-south roadway going toward the weapon
shop, there is a lake on the east side of that road. A briefcase (2) is located
on a rocky knoll on the north side of that lake.
East diamond locations:
There is a safe house north of the weapon shop. Northwest of it, past the
shallow pond there is a briefcase (2) lying on the ground.
Due north of the weapon shop there is a crescent shaped mountain south of the
OGC farm. At the mid-point of that mountain is a path where you will find a
briefcase. (2) This is a bit of a walk but will be uncontested until you reach
the road, which is patrolled.
West of the weapon shop there is a long narrow body of water. On its east end
near the waterfall there is a briefcase (3) lying on the rocks.
Due east of the weapon shop, on the opposite side of the mountain there is a
shack where the road fades into the scrub. On the table there is a briefcase.
(1) There is also a golden AK-47, take it to save the 10 diamonds a regular one
would cost. When carrying a different primary weapon put the AK-47 in your
primary crate to retain possession of it. (The primary crate will cost you 16
diamonds.)

ASSASSINATION MISSIONS:
1) MOKUBA SHANTYTOWN
2) AIRPORT HANGER
3) PALA NORTH
4) SHWASANA VILLAGE
5) PALA SOUTH
6) SOUTH CONVOY
There are six assassination missions available in the Leboa-Seka sector. These
missions are given when you interact with any of the four cellular towers
displaying a mission flag. These missions cannot be undertaken if a main mission
is active but they can be taken consecutively. They can also be aborted by
simply taking another mission. Each Leboa-Seka assassination mission will pay 10
diamonds, payable upon completion of the deed.

ASSASSINATION MISSION: MOKUBA SHANTYTOWN:
Weapons:    shotgun or assault rifle, grenade launcher, (dart rifle)
Time:       night is essential on this mission
Payment:    10 diamonds upon mission completion
Begin this mission north of Mokuba from the weapon shop or safe house, where you
can forward time to night, if needed. The maze-like shantytown has a large
garrison, so stealth is essential for a clean kill. This mission can, with care,
be completed with minimal force; but it can easily deteriorate into one of the
game's most intense firefights if you are discovered.
Walk southwest, crossing the road south of the safe house, and then go west
along the rock face past the waterfall, bypassing the guard post. Once past it,
follow the road south toward Mokuba. There will be no patrols on this road. As
you near Mokuba note the “50” sign and begin a stealthy advance. Take the dirt
path that splits to the right off the main road. Look for the large boulder to
its left and advance toward it.
A sentry with a rocket launcher will be on an elevated platform, beyond and
below the boulder. He will be your first concern and the mission's key to
success. A patrolling sentry frequents the area; so take out the rocket launcher
wielder with a silent headshot, but only when the roving sentry is not in the
vicinity.
If the sentry discovers his dead comrade during his rounds, he will signal an
alert. So, immediately, go east along the rocky hillside until you are even with
the windmill. Jump down. Peer around the rock and monitor for sentries. Allow
any sentry unaware of your presence to move away, but use the dart rifle if he
becomes wary and you are about to be detected. Creep forward past the windmill
and move quickly but cautiously between the two sides of the metal fence.
Patrols are unpredictable in this area so be prepared to use the dart rifle.
Monitor the targets position briefly on your map and then locate him with your
sniper scope. He will be wearing a brown suit, and may occasionally squat down
behind a wooden fence, making the shot more difficult. Zero in with your dart
rifle for the kill. A headshot is not necessary in this case. You can also use
the grenade launcher if you cannot get a clear shot. Reverse your entry path to
escape Mokuba.

ASSASSINATION MISSION: AIRPORT HANGAR:
Weapons:    Assault rifle or shotgun, grenade launcher, (dart rifle) or
Shotgun or assault rifle, grenade launcher, (rocket launcher)
Time:       night is best but not required
Payment:    10 diamonds upon completion
From the southwest bus station, drive east toward the objective, angling south
of the airport to achieve a position due south of the hangar. This will be just
outside the octagonal boundary as shown on your map. There is a double-edged
rock outcropping whose eastern end provides a perfect line of sight into the
hangar. If you have the rocket launcher, target the area to complete the kill.
If you have the dart rifle, you will have to move closer to achieve the kill.
Wait until the assault truck turns south of the hanger and goes east, then
advance to the derelict truck south of the hanger. This is an easy shot with the
dart rifle and has the advantage of not putting the garrison, with its assault
trucks, on alert. Either way, as soon as the kill is accomplished, get out of
the area. There are two assault vehicles at the airport and a sniper may be
active in the tower to the east and the patrolling truck will soon return on its
rounds.

ASSASSINATION MISSION: PALA-NORTH:
Weapons:    sniper rifle, (IEDs), PKM
Time:       doesn't matter
Payment:    10 diamonds upon completion
Park your vehicle on the northeast road leading out of Pala. The target, wearing
a gray suit, is loitering in an alley on the north side of town. Taking him out,
even with silent weapons, will usually result in a firefight, so tackle this
mission by placing a couple of IEDs in the alley. Do this while he is facing
away and note your position on your map when you do this, since the target may
wander out of their blast radius. Return to your vehicle and detonate when he is
in the deadly zone. Drive out of town to clear the alert.

ASSASSINATION MISSION: SHWASANA:
Weapons:    (sniper rifle), grenade launcher, PKM or
shotgun or assault rifle, grenade launcher, (rocket launcher)
Time:       night is essential
Payment     10 diamonds upon completion
Travel east from the northwest bus station; and, if necessary, take the safe
house along the route. It is manned by three hostiles. Drive to the mission
area, and park on the switchback entry road near the "pedestrian" sign. Take the
footpath there and work your way down the west side of the village, cautiously
curling around to the south of it. Find a good vantage point, in cover,
orientated toward the target as indicated on your map. If the man in the brown
suit isn't there, slightly adjust your position for a better view and be
patient. He will come into your field of fire. This is a fairly difficult one-
shot kill with the rifle, so take your time with the shot. If you have the
rocket launcher, this is an easy kill once the quarry is spotted. Reverse your
entry path to escape Shwasana.

ASSASSINATION MISSION: PALA-SOUTH:
Weapons:  assault rifle or shotgun, (IEDs), dart rifle (hand grenades)
Time:     doesn't matter
Payment:  10 diamonds upon completion
Park your vehicle on the southwest side of Pala, orientated for a quick escape
to Mike’s or out of town past the bus station. The victim will periodically walk
north in the alley from the metal shack near the south wall. Enter town through
the southwest barricade and, when he is going north, place an IED inside and
outside the metal shack near the south wall. Return to your vehicle and detonate
when he returns to the metal shack area. Drive out of town to clear the alert.
Alternate method:
While outside the wall on the southwest end of Pala, orient yourself with the
target, using your map for reference. When he is heading north, toss several
grenades over the fence to complete the kill. Get out of town to clear the
alert.

ASSASSINATION MISSION: SOUTH CONVOY:
Weapons:    sniper rifle, (grenade launcher), PKM
Time:       night is preferred but not required
Payment:    10 diamonds upon completion
Drive east from the southwest bus station, past the safe house, along the tracks
and then south cross-country to the large rock formation southwest of the
airport. Approach the area when the convoy is off to the east. Park your vehicle
near the small boulder on the outcroppings southwest side so it's out of the
coming blast radius. Climb the rocks and look eastward.
The convoy will approach your position from the east and will pass south of you.
From the high ground you can see it coming when it passes south of the airport
hangers and it is an easy target for the grenade launcher as are its escort
trucks. Make a quick getaway back to the west because pursuit from the nearby
airport is possible though not probable.

Each of the ex-pat agents-the buddies-have two personal missions that you can
undertake. You can acquire these missions by interacting with them at Mike's
Bar. These missions are optional, and cannot be taken while a main mission is
active. They can be aborted by simply taking another mission, and they can't be
taken consecutively. They also don't pay anything. These are for reputation
only, but they are some of the most enjoyable of all the missions.
In addition to the buddy you release during the tutorial portion of the game,
two others will be unlocked automatically. Additional buddies will be unlocked
when the faction HQ doorman in either Pala or Port Saleo gives you the location
of and the option to free an additional captive. The Leboa-Seka rescue will be
at one of the alternate tutorial locations: the slaughterhouse, cock-fighting
arena, lumber camp or fresh fish facility. The Bowa-seka rescue will be at
either Sediko or at the brewery.
In the Leboa-Seka portion an additional buddy can be rescued from a plane crash
in the north sector. The plane wreck is north of Shwasana on the south side of
the tracks near the southeast side of the shoe-shaped mountain. You can see the
wrecked plane from a good distance. Beware of opposition in this area.
Note: Marty Alencar is unique among the buddies. He can appear in either sector
of the game. He will take the place of the character you have chosen to play.

MARTY ALENCAR:   (BDMA1)
Storyline:  Marty has been swindled by a local militia commander and is unhappy.
A shipment of cargo he has paid for has been confiscated and is being readied
for shipment. He wants you to go to the bivouac near the villa on the north
river and destroy the cargo.
Mission:   Destroy the cargo near the militia bivouac on the north river
Weapons:   sniper rifle, (grenade launcher), PKM
Time:      night is preferred but not required
From the northeast bus station, drive off-roar going south through the desert
scrublands far enough to bypass the marina area. Continue south and park on the
road northwest of the safe house. Take to the river and swim toward the
objective. Much of the north riverbank is walk able, so utilize it to avoid any
active patrol boats. As you approach the safe house you will most likely have to
eliminate a patrol boat with your grenade launcher. This will get the attention
of the two guards. The south side of the river is also walk able near the safe
house, so use it and the sniper rifle to eliminate the guards. Save at the safe
house and forward time, if needed.
