It goes first the cops in Sagrada, then the Boblings at the harbor and finally the Blue sun guys at their base. If you finish those quests it'll lead you to your original target Fakirov/Bashirov. There's also a new weapon ordering system, but it's only one guy that has this ability. Then there's some other minor tweaks, like when the player base is available, the border check is removed and the first rebel encounter is also gone.

There was a database in Reloaded that did what you asked for, but it never got translated. I think there's also a "Travelling Guide" made by Toneone1 in German somewhere, but that deals with missions and how to complete them successfully.

Someone with knowledge of the game could edit the ITEMINFO file and write better descriptions of the items, but there's a limit on how many letters there can be in every item entry and one would have to be very succinct. I'm too lazy to do it myself

Yeah, the last time I played was around November of 2009, I've been pretty busy since then. I never got to finish the game using the BFX mod, but I was already having a good time with the new weapons and items.

It'll be good to see some new quests. A few of the quests that I do remember were a little "stupid", they seemed to have bugs or issues that didn't make sense or would end up causing problems. I'm hoping that most of that has been cleaned up, if not then I can leave more detailed feedback when I get the game up and running again. Overall though, the new quests added something fun to do when the normal stuff got boring.


I wouldn't mind looking into the ITEMINFO file once I get things running again. As both a former US Army soldier and civilian law enforcement, I have plenty of experience with weapon systems and tactical equipment. I could take a look at the descriptions and see if any need revised, or if anything is missing.

My main concern was for the game overall. It would be great to have some sort of Wiki set up that explains the weapons, items, vehicles, etc so players know what to do with everything. While most weapons in general are obvious, there are a few accessories that might not be as obvious to casual gamers. And then of course you have those oddball items like the firearm manuals that nobody really knows WTF they are there for.

Maybe I can look into setting up some type of Wiki, but I'll need help when the time comes. I'm sure we have enough active players and forum users that would be willing to post some stuff there.


Thanks for the heads up, I look forward to checking the game out again soon. Should be about 2 weeks before my PC is repaired (I hope), and then I'm ready to rock.

By the way, does anyone know the contact information of the people responsible for producing/developing the game?
