Unfortunately, as far as I know the only way is to reload a saved game previous to when you accepted the mission and do it all over again.

WTF. It tells you to take a bus for fas travel but there is only like 6 bus stops and they are always miles away from mission locations. The cars are crap. I know Africa is a deprived country and all that but... Do you need 2 mph cars the guy can sprint faster FFS. Also not enough aimals. It took me half hour to find one bleedin Zebra! Oh well some of its fun. P.S Can you help me, I was told by the APR door gaurd to go and rescue a sihk guy from te slaughter house. I went and spoke to him and he said he would see me in Mikes Bar. The objective was to rescue the captive from the backroom of the slaughter house but for some reason it has not said mission complete and the objective still stands. Help please.

Don't worry about missing out on the story by not playing Crysis, as the story is kind of bland and dull. Luckily, that doesn't matter much for an FPS! Warhead is fairly linear, with many tightly focused, lengthy combat sequences. The weapons feel a lot more powerful than in the original Crysis (and MUCH more powerful than in Far Cry 2), and the suit abilities help to add an extra element of tactics to your encounters. You still do get a fair amount of that open world feel, but it is mostly an illusion as there is rarely any actual choice about how to proceed.

I bought the game 3 days ago and find it's just too big! I guess it'll be a game I can play when I'm killing time waiting for call of duty 4 part 2 to come out or when I've nothing better to play. I do like the game, but all the pointless, predictable traveling between points (use the buses!) is getting a bit wearing! Also, I've now reached a point where I cant complete missions - I follow the instructions, kill the bad guys, rescue the hostage - but nothing happens! I've read other guys have experienced this too! oh well looks like FarCry2 is up on the shelf already! This review is spot on!

I mean, ESS TEE AYE ELL KAY EEE ARR. I uninstalled that crap after about an hour. Good thing I only paid $9 for it. :D FC2 being mediocre does not surprise me one iota. Companies are far, FAR, <strong>FAR</strong> too up their own bollocks about trying to make games into subpar interactive movies instead of making them good games. The games end up having these weird, half-arsed movie-like qualities in addition to flawed gameplay mechanics that get old quickly, and it's just stupid. They're 'meh' in both departments and then infected with DRM and stuck with price tags outweighing their worth by a factor of two (at least). Yay? Heh, Stalker. I mean, ESS TEE AYE ELL KAY EEE ARR.

It's not trying to be as revolutionary as Far Cry 2 or anything, but in this case, that's probably a good thing. Well, the Crysis won’t disappoint, at least.
