Detailed map | Red Forest
DETAILED MAP OF THIS ZONE - NPC's & IMPORTANT PLACES:
Important NPC characters (red color):
You won't encounter any interactive NPC characters on this map. There are going to be some friendly soldiers, however you won't be allowed to talk to them. Obviously this is going to be a difficult map, mostly because you'll be dealing with massive enemy forces. There are also a few mutants in the area.
Important places (green color):
Important! There are some very dangerous radioactive zones scattered throughout the entire sector. Sadly, you won't be able to avoid all of these spots. As a result, I would recommend that you take your time in order to plan a safest route to the control bunker.
1 - You will come across a fairly small military checkpoint here. You shouldn't have ANY problems killing all enemy soldiers, however you must have a gun with a scope in your possession. Once the enemies are gone, secure this area. Watch out for radioactive zones.
2 - Enemy snipers are hiding in these spots. As you've probably noticed, there's quite many of them, so you must be careful. I'd strongly recommend that you take them down with a similar weapon. You will be able to acquire such a rifle from one of the nearest snipers. Sadly, many of the sniper spots are radiated, so it'll be difficult to acquire additional ammunition for the rifle. I've only displayed sniper spots outside the main base, mostly because it'll be easy to find these guys once you're near the control bunker. Just be on a look out for sniper towers. Good luck and keep your head down! ;-)
3 - This is a main road leading to the base. It's easier to reach the control bunker if you decide to choose it, however there are a few things you should know about. You will be encountering enemy soldiers quite regularly. Watch out for deadly radiation spots. It's going to be difficult to avoid them. There's also an alternate route to the base. Check 5 for more instructions.
4 - You will encounter a single opponent who's carrying a rocket launcher. I guess I don't have to tell you to take him out as soon as possible AND from a larger distance. You should consider hiding behind a good cover.
5 - This is an alternate route leading to the control bunker. You would have to go through a large forest. I wouldn't recommend choosing it, especially if you want to collect additional ammunition. You would encounter zombies and mutants here.
6 - There's a destroyed helicopter here. I wouldn't recommend going near it, because this is a highly radioactive zone. Don't worry about image distortions. It's a part of the game. :-)
7 - There's a hole in the fence here. You would be able to use it to get closer to the base, however you would have to kill an enemy sniper in the first place. There are also other enemy soldiers in this area and you would have to deal with all of them at once.
8 - You will come across a second (larger) military checkpoint here. You don't necessarily have to go here, because this area isn't tied to any of your main missions, however you would be able to find some medical supplies here. There are also about 8 soldiers for you to take care of.
9 - This is a road which leads directly to the main compound. You will encounter a few larger groups of enemy soldiers. Watch out for flaming barrels! Start running in an opposite direction or use the gun to destroy these objects.
10 - This is the main compound. You won't have to explore this entire area. Watch out for enemy snipers, however there are only a few of them here. Once again, ignore image and color distortions. Once you've shot down the emitter, it'll all be normal.
Once you've returned from Red Forest Control Bunker:
As you've probably noticed, some fights are taking place in this area. As a result, I'd strongly recommend that you leave this area as soon as possible. You will only have to kill several soldiers, mostly because they'll be standing in your way. You will also find out about a planned meeting in Pripyat.
11 - This road leads straight to Pripyat sector. You will probably have to kill about 6-7 soldiers here. Sadly, there's no way to avoid them. Also, you shouldn't explore this area if you haven't been to the bunker, mostly because more soldiers would have appeared in that area. You will have to use this road to reach Pripyat and some of the allied Stalkers.
