Mission # 1 – The Warrant

In the opening cut scene when the game begins, you are in a helicopter with the Hope county Sheriff and the U.S Marshal to arrest the main antagonist, Joseph “The Preacher” Seed, also known as “The Father”.

After the helicopter lands you follow the sheriff around the entrance street of the church where there is a crowd of people protesting as you pass them. There isn’t much freedom to roam around as you only have the option to move forward.

When you reach in the church you are given the option to arrest Joseph Seed. To progress into the story you cuff and walk him back to the helicopter.

Alternatively, you can end the game prematurely, opting to not arrest Joseph Seed by waiting for a few minutes. A cut scene then begins where you walk out without arresting Joseph Seed and that ends the game.

Mission # 2 – No Way Out

Here begins the first moments where you have total control as the player and can really explore the mechanics of the game.

Following the arrest of Joseph seed, a cut scene where it shows the helicopter crashing down when the enemies (or the Peggies) stop you from leaving with Joseph Seed. After the crash Joseph Seed is found to be unhurt and taunts you while the marshal is seen to have escaped and another of your colleague is captured.

You are then given control to escape the Helicopter and run away from the crash into the bushes, where you finally reach a house.
Here you encounter your first enemy, roaming around the house, and are required to perform a stealth takedown. You can pick up the weapon from the enemy and continue to proceed inside of the house to find some ammo.

After this, you get a radio call from the Marshal who explains about his location in a nearby trailer house. Follow the waypoint to where the marshal is. Once you reach the trailer to meet up with the Marshal, he will tell you his plan of escape while handing you a weapon. A fight then ensues where the enemies have located you and attack from the outside of the trailer. Cover fire and protect the Marshal while he runs to get a truck to escape. You then proceed to get into the truck as well with the marshal.

The next scene is where the marshal is driving the truck while you resume covering fire and defend yourself from the following enemy vehicles and an enemy plane. In the end the plane bombs and destroys a bridge that is your pathway, and the truck falls underwater into a river. Escape the truck with the Marshal and swim your way out.

Mission # 3 – Glimmer of Hope

Following the escape underwater, you emerge out to the surface and see the Marshal being captured in the distance. You are then grabbed by someone and the scene fades to black.
Once you regain consciousness, you find yourself handcuffed in a bed, and man explaining that you are in his bunker and that the situation about the closed roads and no communication from the outside world. Also adding that there is no one coming to help after the hostile situation created by the Peggies and Joseph Seed.

Get up from the bed as the man frees you and change your clothes, follow the pathway to meet the Man who introduces himself as Dutch. He will then proceed to tell you how to gain control of the island and gain a resistance to fight with Joseph Seed and the Peggies. Following this, proceed to exit the bunker.
