stuck with malaria

[Digital Warrior]

Hi guys. I am new to the game. I have problem with malaria. I have read a few topics about this and people say i should go to town first to get some pills before going to mikes bar.
The problem is i can not make it to mikes bar or town, each time I end up dead. I tried to starting from scratch but same result. Anyone knows a solution?

What is your exact problem? Are you unable to recieve pills from the priest?

Before you can get malaria pills, you must escape town after your first encounter with the Jackal at the hotel. You will eventually pass out (not die) and get taken to one of four faction outposts, where the commander of the outpost will give you a series of tasks. When you have completed the tasks, the commander will instruct you to return to the outpost. Return to the outpost and the commander will tell you of a diamond case you need to locate and that you can find help getting pills at Mike's bar. Locate the case then go to Mikes, purchase weapons at the weapon shop, pick them up at the armory, and then you can enter Mike's bar, where you meet your buddies and a reporter. The reporter gives you your first Jackal tape and tells you to meet the priest in Pala. When your business at Mikes is finished, head back to town, meet the priest, and then he will give you your first malaria pills.

This stuff is all part of the game, which is task driven. Just follow the prompts as they appear in the beginning of the game. They will instruct you what to do. You can press Esc any time to read a description of the task you need to accomplish.

Thanks a lot for taking the time.
I survived after the Jackal left a gun and machete şn my room at the hotel. I secured the safe house. Then I completed the mission at the lumber. Then I am told to get to the diamond case.
At this point I can not go to town or mikes bar. Malaria kills me each time.
I have realized that some part of the map is red. And whenever I try to get red part malaria kills me. I have even tried approaching red part and returning, malaria attack just disappears if I step back to non red part of the map.

I guess the priest is in the town (pala) and I cannot get there without malaria killing me.

That may indeed be the problem. The red parts indicate an out of bounds area. Entry into any part of the map that is out of bounds will cause the character to become sick and pass out. Usually though, the character doesn't die; he just passes out and revives in bounds somewhere near his last location. Those red areas disappear once you've completed the training mission. Try again, but this time don't stray into any red areas, you should be fine.

the red bits dont vanish until you finish the prequel. Then you can go anywhewre you like.

1. escape town and faint - run out of front door and cross road, behind church, through hole and either left or right, does not make any difference.
2. End up at factions building (automatic)
3. save in blue box
4. collect weapon and inject helath syringe at box on wall.
5. go do job and you get another, go do another (rescue someone) and return to faction building.
6. He tells you where to get diamonds on site.
7. Get diamonds and leave and go to Mikes Bar.
8. Go to weapons shop and but a makarov pistol or shotgun both at 4 diamonds. Thats leaving you 6.
9. Go to ammo store, next door. Equip yourself with crossbox and 6 x shot shotgun, both free.
Equip with ammo, petrol bombs and grenades.
10. Go to Mikes bar across the road speak to everyone. Rueben will give you tape to take to Priest in Pala. leaving the Bar, go to metal shed on road out - more diamonds. On way to town, across the ford, go to wreck on left corner and more diamonds.
11. Take tape to priest, here you will get first bottle of quinine (anti malaria)
12. Leave church and you become a free agent. Go to either factions and find diamonds in building. In the garage you can get diamonds through window, safer, you do not have to enter.
In other factions builidng you need to wait until nobody is watching, stand opposite the building in street. When sfe, go straight in and grab diamonds and come straight out, dont dither.
13. Return to Weapons Shop at Mikes bar, and, if you want, buy IED bombs.
14. Now its up to you - you can take missions from weapons dealer (using IEDs) or you can take missions from mobile phone tower (from Jackal). These pay, but weapons dealer misisons do not, you just get access to diff weapons. Also you can take missions now from available faction leaders.

Happy hunting ......................... full game tip - try and go stealth.
