Far Cry 2 Game Guide

Act 2 - Defend the Barge

Objective: Meet Voorhees in Sefapane.

Note that your contact may change depending on which faction you ended up working for in the previous mission. Return to your getaway jeep and drive south toward the bus station. Go between the marked guard posts to avoid a fight. Get on the southern road and drive to the bus station and then turn south. You’re back in the desert. Follow the road toward the marked location. Expect to encounter an enemy patrol. Eliminate them and follow the road to the checkpoint and into the southern region.

Tip: As you’re going south on the road, spot the small hut on the left side near the buggy. There’s a diamond briefcase on the roof but you’ll need some assistance getting it. Park the buggy close by and jump on the buggy and then onto the roof to get the briefcase. There’s another resting on the ground at the end of the southern train tracks.

Continue south into the northwest section of Bowa-Seko. There’s a weapon shop just south on your current road-a convenient stop in case you need to switch weapons or resupply ammo. Continue past the weapon shop and avoid the guard station. Drive south of the guard station and then east toward Sefapane.

Tip: Search the desert southwest from the weapon shop. There’s a set of abandoned train cars. Search one of the cars to locate a diamond briefcase. Before entering Sefapane, search the grassland to the northwest. It’s a half-circle alcove on the map. On the northern center is a structure-watch out for guards here. Find a diamond briefcase north of the structure on a rock formation.

Drive into Sefapane and approach the marked building. Replenish your ammo and health at the marked locations. Speak with the contact inside.

Objective: Meet the barge skipper at The Jackal’s island in Lake Segolo.

Exit the room and check the main mission map. You’ll see the objective location to the southeast-there’s a bus station nearby. Leave Sefapane and proceed to the nearest bus station, which is found north of town. Exit the town to the west and find the car just outside of Sefapane. Drive west but then cut through the passage to the north toward the bus station. Once at the bus station, board the bus that drives to the center of the map-closest to the Lake Segolo objective.

Tip: Before boarding at the bus station near Sefapane, search lakeside just south. From the bus station, go a bit to the southwest. Search the lakefront to find a diamond briefcase on a pile of rocks. Once you arrive at the Lake Segolo bus station, search the first open shipping container. Look behind the barrel to find a diamond briefcase.

Take a boat to the barge; check your map as you drive for the best route to the marked location.

Get onto the airboat and pilot it southeast toward the objective. Park the boat at the dock or on the edge of the barge. Get off and onto the barge and search the grounds for ammunition and health (inside the lower room). Ascend the staircase and grab the rocket launcher to the left. Open the door on the right and speak with the barge skipper.

Objective: Defend the barge until you dock at Port Selao. If the barge breaks down, repair the engine.

Exit the bridge and proceed to the front of the barge. The barge wields some pretty formidable armaments: the front and side weapons are mounted grenade launchers! Grab the front grenade launcher and prepare for action. The first enemies to appear should be on land to either side of the barge; aim the grenade launcher and eliminate them. Next you should encounter a far guard using a rocket launcher; eliminate him as quickly as possible. It won’t take long before enemy boats appear; just fire a grenade close to the boat and the resulting explosion should capsize it.

The barge will likely suffer enough damage to require repair. You’ll know if the barge comes to a complete stop. If this happens, you need to turn around and find the open hatch on the barge floor-spot the smoke. Repair the barge to continue onward. Expect to move back and forth between the barge’s weapons and the repair location. The greatest threats to the barge are the mortars, locate them and fire the barge’s grenade launcher in their direction. If an enemy boat gets too close, consider using an assault rifle to eliminate the boat’s occupants.

Objective: Go to the clinic and talk to Doctor Ouba.

Mission Details: Now that the barge is docked, the barge skipper needs me to run ahead to the clinic in Port Selao. I have to warn some civilian doctor named Obua that the cease-fire is about to come unstuck.

You’re back at the bus station near the center of the map. Search the area around the station for ammo and health items. Get inside the nearby vehicle and head north toward Mosate Seleo. Park the vehicle at the southwestern side of the city and walk toward the marked objective on the northern side of town. Enter the building to find the doctor inside the back room. During the conversation you’ll hear the cease-fire ending outside.

Objective: Escape Port Selao.

As you start out the front, a helpful buddy suggests taking the safer back exit. Grab any medical supplies needed before leaving. Exit the back door. Go left into the market area. Turn left and look to the south-you should see plenty of fighting. There are a lot of enemies-angry enemies-here and it’s not really worth the effort in fighting everyone. Instead, run for it. Continue running south until you reach your vehicle, which will be where you left it. Get in and drive back to the bus station. You may have pursuers-deal with them if necessary.

Back at the bus station, search the grounds for health and ammo before moving toward the barge, which ends the mission.

Act 2 - Rescue the Barge

Mission Details: Got a frantic call from the barge skipper. Someone was sharp enough to track the barge after all the cargo was offloaded, and now they’ve chased it across Lake Segolo. If either side figures out what we pulled, things could get bad. I better intercept them and make sure no one talks.

Objective: Rendezvous with the barge and eliminate all attackers.

Run over to the airboat parked at this dock. Get inside and start driving toward the marked objective to the southeast. When your phone rings, answer the call. Continue piloting the boat toward the objective. As you get close, the map switches and you see that the boat is parked at the Marina. Drive into the narrow waterway and approach the Marina.

The Marina and barge are under heavy assault. In fact, some enemies are even using the barge’s grenade launchers. If you brought a sniper rifle with you this far then this part of the game is a piece of cake. Slow down the airboat and maintain a decent distance from the Marina. Use the sniper rifle to eliminate all or most of the attackers. There are some on the boat and another group at the Marina.

If you lack a sniper rifle then you can board the barge on the left or right side about halfway down. Move toward the back of the barge and use it for cover against the approaching attackers. If you can get to the front grenade launcher you can use it against the Marina enemies, otherwise just finish off the enemies while using the barge as cover.

Objective: Go talk to the barge skipper on the stranded bridge.

Ascend the barge staircase and enter the bridge. Approach and speak with the skipper to conclude the mission. The Marina includes a weapon shop, armory, and bar. Enjoy the amenities!
