Side Quests | Side Quests Red Faction: Guerrilla Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
In every sector we will be able to do a series of side quests. Icon of each of them can be found on the world map. However - if your status is not green (and therefore we are wanted by EDF), is likely that these icons will disappear for a moment (they will be back when the situation will be normal once again). We have following types of tasks:
EDF Assault
Upon reaching the place, the area on the mini map will be separated from the rest with green, and in the upper right corner of the screen, you will see an indicator showing the current situation on the battlefield #1. Soon, the enemy soldiers will show up and that's why it is good to find (white icon) a chest with ammunition where you can refill your ammunition #2.
Sometimes we can find machine gun located near the defense wall #1. The mission should be easy with it. While shooting your enemies try hide yourself from bullets #2. Look on the mini map too, your enemies will be shown there (red color).
It is also a good idea to use some remote charges or proximity mines #1. Rocket launcher can be very effective too #2. It is less precise but much more deadly. When the last enemy soldier will be dead our quest will be over.
House Arrest
This quest is given by the guerrilla soldier #1 marked with green. Do not enter with the main entrance. Make a hole in the wall with hammer (rocket launcher can kill some hostages so do not use it) #2.
Rebels are marked with yellow #1. Some of them are upstairs #2 others are in different rooms in the building. Remember that they can be killed very easily. Do not hurt them or shoot them. But remember: to end this mission you have to rescue only one hostage.
Try to avoid vehicles where your friends will be unsecured #1. They can fell out of the car very easily and that will make your escape much slower. The best option is to use well defended EDF vehicles #2.
Transporter
This quest is about transporting the vehicle to our base #1. Beware, because you do not have much time to do it. There are many types of cars in these tasks and that can be difficult #2.
In couple of cases you will have to deal with some real fire power #1 and barricades. Do dot stop and fight. Just drive and keep to the patch #2. Riding on roadside sometimes can be very effective too.
Convoy
The convoy track will be marked with red #1. If the quest is located in canyon it is the best for you. Chose the point, and deploy some heavy trucks there to block the road #2.
A very good solution is to destroy the bridge #1. But remember that it will make your journeys more difficult in the future. The last thing is to prepare the trap. Deploy some proximity mines and remote charges #2 and wait for your enemies with rocket launcher. If you have to steal the vehicle kill soldiers that are inside with arc welder and simply run away.
Courier
This quest we can divide to three stages. The first one is to catch courier car and destroy it (driver will go out). Some barricades or car with turret will be handy here #1. After the courier death take documents #2 and lose EDF soldiers that are following you.
Guerrilla Raid
When you will accept this mission you will find yourself with some guerrilla soldiers and a car #1. Go as fast as possible to the marked area. You do not have much time so be quick. When you will reach the place you will see a bar showing the number of dead soldiers #2. One of the option to end the mission is to kill every enemy.
The second option is to destroy #1 marked building. Sometime it could be very difficult because building are quite large and your enemies are attacking you all the time. So the best option is to kill everyone #2 and the guerrilla forces will do the rest.
Collateral Damage
Get inside the guerrilla car #1 and take control of rocket launcher. You have to do damages that will be worth imposed amount of money. When you will be attacked by enemy vehicles, destroy them. Do not forget about planes #2. One is worth 5 millions.
Try to look in front of you. You can start destroying buildings #1 as soon as you will see the yellow mark. Do not forget about lesser objects too #2. Try not to destroy bridges, they can be handy in the future.
Heavy Metal
The main objective is to use some well armed vehicle and kill some enemy troops or destroy vehicles. We will be able to use robots #1 and even tanks #2.
Sometimes you will have to use ground rocket launcher #1 but in some missions you will be able to use the most deadly weapon in the game #2. Generally, the quest is simple: just kill everything. It is also a very good occasion to collect some scrap.
