Question about buddy missions

[morshusprite]

So apparently there are two missions per buddy that you can do but if you have a second best buddy are the missions unplayable? How exactly does that system work?

So I'm not quite sure either, but when you go into the pause menu and go under the "buddies" section, you can see that every buddy has a "history" value. The one you have the most history with is your best buddy, and the second highest is your secondary rescue buddy.

And yeah it's pretty stupid how they made it but there is a workaround ONLY if you never got rescued. Do both missions for the other guy in the bar, and then you should have enough history with him that he becomes your rescue buddy, then you can do the missions for your previous rescue buddy.

Alternatively if your main buddy dies the rescue buddy now becomes your main one and you can do his missions again.

Yeah thats kind of an irritating design honestly. Thanks for the answer though.

Oh yeah. How many times can your rescue buddy save you?

Unlimited times, as long as it says he's "rescue-ready" by interacting with him/her in a safehouse after they saved you.

Except near the end of the game but I won't spoil that for you.

That's cool. So they don't go missing? I was told that similar to how your best buddy will die if he's revived 3 times your rescue buddy can go missing if they save you 3 times. Maybe that was in early versions of the game or something. So I guess if they can rescue you unlimited times than that can increase your history with them past the point of your original best buddy.

Well I have definitely been rescued more than 3 times with one buddy. And yes if he saves you enough times and your history with your main buddy isn't super high he can easily become your best buddy.
