I can certainly understand why the American scientists wanted to remain on this island as long as possible to continue their research. I wonder, though, if they would want to remain here after experiencing what I've experienced in not even 6 hours on the island.
To recap, I was hit in mid-air by something that appeared to be a huge Sparkler firework, only to slam into the sea at an uber-high rate of speed. Next, I was welcomed by around three North Korean soldiers who weren't seeking an addition to their Christmas Card list. I tried to rescue one of my team members, but was too late. Something had already left him for dead - hanging upside-down from a tree. Finally, on the way here, I ended up dealing with two other soldiers who left me a bit of food and water to feast on during my climb up this hill.
I have to disable a signal scrambler that is located on the beach below. From what I can tell, there are approximately 5 - 7 soldiers guarding the area - including two on a Zodiac-like boat in the harbor.
The scrambler itself is in the middle of the make-shift fort on the beach. My thinking is that I will need to take out the guys in the Zodiac first, then try to eliminate the soldiers as they try to flank me. I am fortunate that I am at an elevated position, which should help me reach my goal.
I ended up using my cloak mode to go stealth and slid the down the hill in order to use the FY71 in order to take out both the gunner and driver of the Zodiac. I moved back into stealth mode again in order to take a position on top of the hill to conceal my location.
Once on top of the hill, I noticed that a gunner had setup shop on the back of a Hummer on the other side of the scrambler. I went prone in order to minimize my chances of missing and fired a few shots his way. Once he was out of the picture, I could focus on the troops on the ground.
Using stealth again and my shields, I moved into position until I had cleared out the beach. The scrambler was now off-line and my map controls once again returned. I drove down the path until I noticed it was about to open up to another sandy beach. Getting out of the hummer, I climbed up a hill in order to elevate my position to increase my chances of survival.
To get to my next way point, I had another 4 - 5 soldiers to evaluate, along with a couple of Hummers. Only one turned out to be a real threat, as he was hidden below me the entire time - waiting to surprise me as I believed the area was clear. I took some damage to my suit, but the Nanosuit healed itself eventually.
On my way, I noticed a large radio tower off in the distance. This must be the KPA Checkpoint the Control Center had warned me about.
My goal is to make it to that tower next, in order to see if I can disrupt the inter-communication between the North Korean soldiers.
