DETAILED MAP OF THIS ZONE - QUESTS:

QUESTS:

1. Meet Kruglov

Received from: this quest will begin automatically once you've gone closer to the crash site

Starting point: 1 on the map

What needs to be done:

a) reach the crash site (2 on the map)

b) find professor Kruglov and talk to him (3 on the map)

Complete quest walkthrough:

This quest will activate soon after you've dealt with the snipers and the second group of bandits. You will have to get closer to the northern part of the map. Like I've said before, you will come across some new thugs (#1). You will also receive a distress call from the scientists. It looks like that they have crashed nearby. The scientists are currently being attacked by enemy units and you will have to help them. Start running towards the crash site. Ignore the artifacts, because you will be allowed to return here very soon. You will have to locate a small passageway which leads to your destination (#2).

Once you've reached the northern section of this map, a short cut-scene should appear on your screen (#1). You will have an opportunity to take a closer look at the crash site and surrounding areas. Keep moving straight. You will have to reach professor Kruglov as soon as possible, because he's in danger. You will encounter at least 3-4 soldiers along the way (#2).

You should be able to reach the crash site and some of the scientists very soon (#1). You could try and help them, however it would be better to focus all attention on saving Kruglov. You shouldn't have any problems finding him. Kruglov is going to be attacked by one of the bandits (#2). You will have to kill this thug, because Kruglov wouldn't be able to defend himself, because he's not even carrying a gun.

Don't talk to Kruglov just yet. Instead, try saving other scientists. You should be able to secure this entire area in about a minute. Most of the enemy soldiers are standing near the destroyed helicopter (#1). Be careful, though. Some of the bandits may be hiding (#2). You will have to locate them as well, so you won't get surprised in the future. Once the battle is over, make sure that you have checked bodies of fallen enemies. Search for medical supplies and ammunition for your newly acquired weapon (don't worry about the scope, you'll get one later).

I would also recommend that you use one of the nearby constructions in order to scout the area from higher ground (#1). You will probably notice a few other bandits. You will have to kill them. Once the area is safe, go back to Kruglov and talk to him (#2). You should also secure a passageway which leads to the southern tunnel.

2. Lead Kruglov to Yantar

Received from: Professor Kruglov (Wild Territory)

Starting point: 3 on the map

What needs to be done:

a) escort Professor Kruglov to the southern exit (4 on the map)

b) once you've reached the exit, talk to Professor (4 on the map)

Complete quest walkthrough:

Professor will ask you to escort him to Yantar sector. I wouldn't recommend refusing his offer, because that's where you'll need to go anyway and if you choose finishing this quest you will also be able to receive an additional reward. Start following Kruglov (#1). He will probably make at least one stop (it depends on how many bandits you've actually killed). After that, he will hide (#2). This means you have to prepare for a bandit attack.

You shouldn't have any problems killing the bandits (#1). They will probably appear nearby, so you won't have to search for them. Try killing them from a larger distance, without giving them opportunity to surround you. Try to reach the entrance to the tunnel (#2). Kruglov will ask you to secure this area. He will wait for you here. Save the game!

You will have to avoid a large number of fire anomalies in the tunnel (#1). You've dealt with similar problems in the past, so you should know how to react. The easiest way would be to use the key responsible for running, however you could also try and pick up a few artifacts (#2). This is not necessary.

Once you've reached the exit, you should make a stop. As you've probably noticed, there are some... zombies in this area (#1)! Despite what you might think, they can actually hurt you. Zombie characters use different kinds of weapons, mostly pistols and light machine guns. I would recommending killing those monsters from a larger distance. You will have to kill three zombies. Now you must wait for the Professor to join you (#2). Once he's here, talk to him. Important! If you can't start the conversation, you've probably encountered a bug and you would have to reload this entire section of the map. Kruglov will thank you for your help. He will also invite you to Yantar sector. I wouldn't recommend going there right away. Try visiting Barkeep, so you'll be able to give him a flash disk. Be careful, though. More enemies may appear on this map (including mutants) later during the game.
