Walkthrough
  1. 1
    After the introductory scenes, proceed through the streets towards the destination marker on the west side of the map. You can activate your map (radar (your minimap with nearby blips and threats marked)) using R1/RT, and an arrow on the upper-left corner of the map indicates north.
  2. 2
    Continue to the checkpoint, which is also indicated as your destination marker on the map (radar).
  3. 3
    Enter the building and speak with the man inside.
  4. 4
    A cutscene (scene) will play, after which you will receive two handguns, the M92F.
  5. 5
    Equip your gun; you will automatically change into your combat gear.
  6. 6
    After the cutscene (scene) concludes, search the room.
  7. 7
    Examine the animal flesh to get a sense of your surroundings.
  8. 8
    Smash the WOODEN CRATE located in the corner using your knife. Items found in crates or barrels are typically random and may contain gold or ammo, but never weapons or First Aid Sprays.
  9. 9
    Read the two documents concerning Control Types and Dying Status.
  10. 10
    Exit the building when you are ready to proceed.
