Red Faction: Guerrilla

Welcome to Mars

Alec joins the Red Faction after the EDF kills his brother

Story 

Singleplayer

Heavy vehicles at high speed are excellent house-smashers.

• House Arrest - The player must rescue hostages from the EDF and return them to base.
• Guerrilla Raid - The player must help the Red Faction clear an area of EDF soldiers and destroy a building.
• Transportation - Steal a specific vehicle and return to base within the allotted time.
• Demolition Master - Timed mini game centered around destroying specific targets.
• Heavy Metal - The player is required to kill a certain amount of EDF troops/vehicles given the destructive vehicle.
• EDF Assault - Given over the radio, you must help the Red Faction protect an area by killing all the EDF that attack.
• Steal Convoy  - Given over the radio, the player must intercept an EDF convoy, steal the targeted vehicle, and return it to base.
• Destroy Convoy - Given over the radio, the player must intercept an EDF convoy and destroy all the targets.
• Interception - Given over the radio, the player must chase down the target, retrieve the intel, and make it back to base.
  

• High Importance Buildings - these buildings are specially marked and well guarded against attack, but the amount of control lost when they are destroyed is greater.
• Medium Importance Buildings - these buildings are marked with a blue marker on your map and offer a significant amount of control loss when destroyed.
• Low importance Buildings - these buildings can be identified on the mini map by their red outline. These are usually unguarded but offer little control loss.
• Propaganda - unmarked billboards and signs that can be destroyed for both control loss and morale boost (and the Free Your Mind achievement/trophy).

• Ore Mine - there are 300 of these spread across the in-game world. They are shown as orange dots on the minimap. Destroying an ore mine rewards the player with a high amount of salvage points. Mining every ore in the game unlocks an achievement/trophy.
• Radio Tag - there are 36 hidden radio tags to find in the in-game world. They are shown as purple dots on the minimap. Upon collecting a radio tag, the player will hear a short audio message played. Collect them all to unlock and achievement/trophy.
• Propaganda Sign - there are 50 of these signs to find in the game. They're usually found alongside roads and are quite easy to spot. Upon destroying a sign, the player will gain a small morale boost in that particular sector. Destroy them all to unlock an achievement/trophy.

Multiplayer

Multiplayer is different from the single-player experience.

The Ostrich Hammer; one of the most coveted unlocks.

Modes

• Anarchy - Anarchy is a free-for-all mode which pits all players against each other in one of many maps. Depending on the options chosen, the leader for the match may be highlighted. In addition, this is one of the few modes where players aren't put into teams (Red Faction, EDF, etc.), but instead display whichever character they chose for that type.
  

  Damage Control is one of the many multiplayer modes.
• Team Anarchy - The same mechanics of Anarchy apply in Team Anarchy, except players are split into teams. Unlike Team Anarchy, there is no leader highlighting, and characters are now split into factions rather than playing as a certain character.
• Capture the Flag - Capture the Flag is the traditional Capture the Flag mode, seen in most shooters on the market. Once the enemy's flag is capture, it must be returned. If the flag is missing, the enemy's flag cannot be returned. Various customizable options appear only in this mode, such as returning flag upon touch and how long a flag stays after being dropped (five seconds to a minute).
• Damage Control - Damage Control is a mode unique to Red Faction: Guerrilla. In each map in this mode, there are three control points on the map. Players are given the reconstructor (a weapon which can literally rebuild things on the map) and then must capture the control points for their team. Enemy control points must be destroyed, and then recaptured.
• Demolition - Demolition is another mode that is unique to Red Faction: Guerrilla. In Demolition, one player on each team is designated as the Destroyer, and then must destroy everything in sight, gaining points for the team. Killing the enemy Destroyer will delay their destruction for nine seconds, until a new Destroyer is randomly selected.
• Siege - Siege splits players into two teams, one attacking team and one defensive team. The defensive team is tasked with protecting several structures, while the offensive team must knock them down (gaining points for their team). This is the longest mode, as it takes twenty minutes rather than ten (each team gets a round). In addition, several maps that Siege takes place on are unique to that mode.
