I Hate It When Optional Mission Objectives...
...Aren't shown during the mission. Or am I missing them? The main mission objectives are always shown on the screen and usually the optional objective is listed there as well.

However, I just finished Sequence 5 Survival of the Fittest only to realize at the end of the mission that I was supposed to destroy two cargo things at once to get 100%. The previous optional objective of not touching the Thames River showed up the whole time but I never saw this other optional objective.

Does this happen to anyone else?

The text for it only appears for the segment of that mission where the optional objective is applicable.

On another note.

IMO side missions should not have had optional objectives at all. They should be strictly a main story thing. Because they can be annoying. But that's just me. I'm sure everyone loves them...............

Overall, I find the optional objectives to be easier than they were in previous games. I don't mind doing them but I'm not going to replay missions if I miss them.

They were easier indeed. Still not a fan of them though. But OCD enough to try and do them.

Optional objectives have always been affecting your overall 'synchronization rate'. If you aren't a completionist then you need not worry about them at all. It's not like the ending will change or anything.

True. I like to attempt them because otherwise the missions are too easy.

From the bottom/heart/roots of my heart I DO AGREE with your message.
There is not a single way to retriev the objectives of the current mission. F** U** lazy supervisors of this part of the game. I HATE YOU !

Which mission was this?
Here to necro this and say ♥♥♥♥ this, game mechanic. Show me before the mission starts so I know what to look for. I ain't going back

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
