Ok I need help..

completely ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ stuck on situation normal and can't get to the survivors! I go one way, I get shot, I go 5 other directions, I get shot, I go from the hill, I get blown up from a mine..this is my 50th attempt at this and I'm feeling like I should just honestly quit the game >>

Since the missions can turn out a bit differently when you play it can be a bit hard to tell you exactly what to do since what worked for me might bring you right infront of a enemy partrol in your game because you were slower/faster/unlucky.

What I did that let me get to the survivors without being spotted was when the mine explodes, turn hard right, head up the hill and keep on the "right" side of the hill, if you go on the left side you are likely to run into trouble, dont crest the hill or they might spot you too... Then just follow the hill, still keeping on the right side to where the survivors are.

See the rocks on the right? if you go roughly on the right side of those up the hill and keep on that right side of the hill you "should" be ok.

If you keep watching this you probably see what happens if you go on the "left" side of the hill.

you can go into the options menu and check the alllow multiple saves. then you can save your progress more then once in game and slowly work out your advance. sometime it's also best to just lay low for about 10 minutes and see how the AI is patroling before advancing.

If you're getting frustrated with this mission, then boy are you in for it later on.

Another tip wich goes for most missions and multiplayer too, if you double tap left ctrl key(I think that is the standard keybind) you will lower your weapon, moving around with your weapon down drains a lot LESS stamina so you can walk longer and have better aim.

Oh ok thanks for the tip

This mission is ARMA's way of introducing you to the concept of "You're not Rambo or Capt. America".

Think like a human instead of a human controlling a video game - be patient, hide, creep, be patient, creep some more...

You're surrounded by enemies, on your own. Don't shoot at enemies that aren't shooting at you - find another way around. If that way is blocked, try another.

Patience is key.
