Yet once you’ve met them, they’ll begin to offer you missions from their own bonus branches. Similarly, you only do one mission for arms dealer Longinus and you don’t technically do any for Yogi and Reggie. For example, you visit Shangri-La only once during the campaign, but that visit unlocks four Shangri-La bonus missions. Bonus Missionsīonus missions branch off of the main campaign, enabling you to delve deeper into side-story threads that come up as you liberate Kyrat. Feel free to read ahead if you’re having trouble deciding whom to follow. When this happens, the choice you make will affect the way the next mission unfolds.
Note that your two major quest-givers in the campaign, Amita and Sabal, frequently give conflicting orders, forcing you to choose between them. In fact, that would be a terrible strategy. You’ll begin the game with a campaign mission, but you absolutely do not have to finish the campaign before taking on quests and activities or exploring the open world. Missions in the campaign tend to be longer, more varied, and more sophisticated than the other mission types, and typically involve achieving not just one objective, but a linked string of objectives. These are the story missions that tell the tale of Ajay Ghale, Pagan Min, and the Kyrati revolution. Far Cry 4 features close to two dozen mission types, divided into broad categories.
