Far Cry 2 Game Guide

Act 1 - Destroy Commando Gear (UFLL Mission)

Visit the UFLL headquarters on the western side of Pala. Check in with the doorman and then ascend the stairs to the second floor and meet your contact.

Mission Details: A team of foreign commandos are hiding in an oasis to the southeast preparing to kidnap some "person of interest" in APR territory. Afraid of taking the blame the UFLL hired me to destroy their gear, forcing them to abort their mission.

Recon the oasis and check the location of guards surrounding the gear.

Objective: Destroy the foreign commandos’ gear.

Just as you are about to leave the UFLL headquarters, your buddy phones with possibly a better deal. You receive an updated objective where you can meet your buddy. You’ll discover these during each of the faction missions. You can choose to assist your buddy in different mission tasks or continue with the assigned faction task. For tips on completing these "subverted" tasks, check the end of each faction mission walk-through for the "Alternate Mission" walk-through.

Go to the Pala bus stop, just south of the UFLL headquarters. Choose the southeastern bus station. When you reach the bus station, pull out your diamond locator. There’s a diamond briefcase behind the station. Pick it up before continuing on with your mission.

Approach the oasis area cautiously. Use the monocular to recon the area; there’s a sniper on the western side of the oasis. Take note of the mounted guns on the northwestern and eastern sides of the objective.

Make your advance from southern rocks. Take cover behind rocks and spot the enemy patrols. If you look closely near the marked objective there’s an explosive barrel-it’s essentially on the southeastern side of the objective. If you shoot that barrel, the resulting explosion will destroy the commandos’ gear. This completes the mission. While the guards run around frantically, you can make a safe escape. Return to the bus station and avoid a fight with the aggravated guards if you want. Ride the bus back to Pala.

Tip: Before leaving the oasis area, search the eastern side of the oasis near the mounted gun. Locate a diamond briefcase on the ground. The briefcase is out in the open and easy to spot along the eastern route into the oasis. Be cautious, however, if there are enemy patrols still lurking around.

Alternate Mission

Take the bus to the southeastern bus station. Drive north past the guard post and weapon shop and meet your buddy inside the safe house.

Objective: Intimidate the informant at the villa into sending the false coordinates.

Drive northwest from the safe house toward the area marked "Private Property" on the same map. Bypass the first guard station by moving north from the safe house and going west through the rock formations.

Tip: There are a couple diamond briefcases to find here. One just after the second guard station-search the western side down across a small pond. It’s on a rock on the other side. There’s a second on top of the building in the northwest corner of Private Property. Find the crates between buildings and climb up to the roof. Cross the ladder to find the briefcase on the other roof.

The term "Private Property" is applicable because there are plenty of enemies around that don’t appreciate trespassing. Eliminate the guards and go upstairs in the main building and find the informant inside. Approach him and use the action button to "intimidate" with your machete.

Objective: Head to Mokuba and destroy the commandos’ gear.

Drive south toward Mokuba. Infiltrate the town and eliminate the guards inside. There’s plenty of cover to remain stealthy

Tip: If you follow the road through Mokuba, there’s a hunk of junk bus on the eastern side of the road. Its empty shell contains a diamond briefcase. Also when you reach the guard station to assist your buddy against the APR troops to complete the mission, search a flatbed there to find another diamond briefcase.

Locate the marked location; it’s a flatbed truck underneath a bridge. Toss a grenade next to it and destroy the gear.

Objective: Help your buddy fight the APR troops.

Go south to the guard station and eliminate the troops to complete the mission.

Act 1 - Tag the Gold (UFLL Mission)

Mission Details: The exiled King has returned with a mountain of gold he hopes will buy peace between the factions. How naïve. The goal’s being guarded by the APR in an oasis somewhere to the northeast. The UFLL’s hired me to find that location.

Objective: Go to the oasis and tag the gold for the UFLL.

Pay a visit to the weapon shop or armory and grab a sniper rifle, which will prove extremely useful in picking off the gold defenders from long-range safety. Get over to the bus station in Pala and take the bus that drives to the northeastern area of the map; this bus station is close to the mission objective. Take the car just outside the bus station and use it to drive toward the gold objective at the oasis.

Watch out for the guard station along the road north. You can drive away from the road on the eastern side to avoid the guard station. There’s a safe house just up ahead, which can be used to save your game before making the assault on the oasis.

Tip: There’s a diamond briefcase on the eastern side of this oasis. Search the center of a rock formation on the eastern side. There’s a shovel and dead body nearby. Open the diamond briefcase and gather the reward.

Drive to the northwestern side of the oasis. Stay far enough away so you aren’t spotted by the enemy patrols close to the gold. Get out of your car and recon the oasis with your monocular. Take note of the location of the patrols, vehicles, and explosive yellow barrels. If you brought a sniper rifle along with you, remain hidden among the rock formations and begin picking off the enemy targets defending the gold.

Once you have cleared the area of guards, maneuver into the center of the oasis and find the ladder. Descend a couple of ladders toward the objective. Approach the gold and "tag" it to complete the mission successfully.

Alternate Mission

Objective: Meet your buddy who might have a better deal.

Proceed to the northeast bus station. Drive south to avoid one of the guard posts. Go to the marked safe house and rendezvous with your buddy. Expect heavy resistance at the guard post just outside the safe house. Check the ground to find a sniper rifle in questionable condition-better to bring your own.

Objective: Kill the King and pick up his ring.

Return north and drive to the marked location in the Fort. As you near the entrance, get out of your vehicle and advance on foot. Recon the Fort with your monocular and locate a couple of snipers-one on the middle building and another on the right building if you’re facing the Fort from the road. Be patient and eliminate as many guards as possible from long-range. Work your way into the fort and get up on one of the towers and use it to snipe at guards below-or toss a couple grenades.

Tip: Get to the marked location but on the bottom floor. There’s a boarded up alcove. Break the boards with your machete and find a briefcase inside.

Ascend to the second floor of the marked building and find the King inside. Eliminate him at close-range. Use the action button to steal the ring.

Objective: Meet Prince Oeduard and give him the ring.

Return to the Lakeside safe house and meet Prince Oeduard inside. Use the action button on Oeduard to give him the ring.

Objective: Go to the Oasis and tag the gold for the UFLL.

Drive to the northwestern side of the oasis. Locate your buddy at the Oasis. There are no guards around.

Tip: There’s a diamond briefcase on the eastern side of this oasis. Search the center of a rock formation on the eastern side. There’s a shovel and dead body nearby. Open the diamond briefcase and gather the reward.

Maneuver into the center of the oasis and find the ladder. Descend a couple of ladders toward the objective. Approach the gold and "tag" it to complete the task.

Objective: Help your buddy fight off the APR in the Oasis.

Climb the ladder and assist your buddy in a huge firefight. Eliminate all attackers. You may need to retreat and use the rocks surrounding the oasis as cover against the assault. If your buddy falls, perform a rescue and healing after the conflict.
