[Mission 07] Some Like it Hotter | Walkthrough Just Cause Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Mission objectives: During the course of this mission you will have to hunt down and kill general Jose Durango. He is loyal to president Mendoza. Durango likes to speed his free time in a club that's located on the top of a large mountain. You will have to check a limousine first. If Durango isn't there, you will proceed to the bar.
Difficulty: medium
Complete walkthrough:
Start off by going to the briefing area (#1). It will be visible on your map. I would recommend that you take a good look around, because you will have to return here in the future. Once you've watched the briefing, you can either choose a motorcycle (#2) or put a request for a small humvee (it's been provided by the Agency). I'd personally recommend having a car. Thanks to it, taking control of the limousine (your first target) will be very easy.
I have to warn you about something. This mission is much more difficult than the previous ones. You will have to be very careful, especially later when you will try to reach the top of the mountain. You have to go to a nearby army base (#1). The route is rather obvious. Once you're close enough (#2) you should accelerate a little, because you'll trigger a new part of the mission. You will have to catch an enemy convoy.
Start chasing Durango's limousine (#1). This is a very similar segment to one of the previous missions of the game. I would recommend that you try and get closer to the limo. Once you're there, activate the stunt mode in order to take full control of the new vehicle (#2). You will have to avoid armored vehicles while doing this. There are also a few enemy soldiers in the vicinity, however you can ignore them.
Once you're inside the limo, it turns out that Durango isn't there. You will have to get to the top of the nearby volcano in order to finish this once and for all (#1). There's only one road leading to your destination (check the map). Furthermore, it's very narrow, so you have to be very careful. Your vehicle is going to be attacked by a lot of police and military units. You must avoid all of these attacks. It would be best to stay in the limousine as long as possible, mostly because the vehicle has an additional armor. Head on to the only road and start moving upwards (#2).
You should be quite safe inside the limousine. I would recommend that you stick close to it until it's completely destroyed. If you lost this car somehow, you may proceed to one of the unlocked safehouses (#1). You'll find a monster truck there (#2). Sadly, this vehicle isn't that good, so it would be best to load one of the previous checkpoints in order to try again with the limo.
Keep moving towards the top of the volcano (#1). The most important thing here is not to stop. Otherwise you would have to deal with the surrounding vehicles. An enemy chopper will appear on the map very shortly (#2). You will have to avoid its attacks. Sadly, it's not that easy as it seems, especially since you don't have any rocket launchers with you. As a result, don't even think about shooting it down.
The final part of the approach (#1) will be more difficult. You have to be careful, because the road is very narrow here, so it's easy to make a mistake. Try using the limousine as long as possible. If you decide to leave the car, make sure you move back to a safe distance. The gunship will probably use rockets to destroy it. You could lose a lot of health here. Choose a new car and keep moving forward. You should be able to reach your destination very soon (#2). Start heading towards a large entrance of the club. There's only one road leading to it, so you can't really miss it.
Once you're there, exit the vehicle and start moving towards your target. You must be quick about it, because you'll be under constant fire. I would recommend that you kill a few soldiers along the way (#1). One of them should drop a medical kit. Pick it up. Keep moving towards the general (#2). He's trying to escape. Thankfully, he can't leave this place.
The general will probably try to climb up a little. Use your machine gun to take him down (#1). Thankfully, he's not a strong opponent, so you should be able to kill him without any other delays. Wait for the FMV to show up. After that, the mission will come to an end.
Important! Sadly, there's not much to do here. I would recommend that you take control of the northern part of this island. There's a new province here for you to take - Provincia de los Bravos. You will have to liberate two random settlements. You will also unlock a new safehouse, however I didn't find it to be useful, especially since there's a better hideout nearby - Agency 02.
Important! For the first time during the game, you will have an opportunity to liberate an army base instead of an usual town or a village. This is a more difficult task. You will be encountering well equipped soldiers. There are also a lot of helicopters and armored vehicles here. Choose your targets carefully. You may also consider stealing one of the tanks. Watch out for random explosions!
