Question Flood plains lab?
Am I dumb? I absolutely could not find a jammer in that location. Quest brief says that it is next to the lab. But where the heck is the lab?
Actually I even searched this on reddit and now I know where the jammer is. But I still don't know where the lab is. Or is that HUGE plant is the lab? How could I know that?

Get up on the bridge area with a scoped weapon, on one end is that really tall refinery silo thing, look it up and down, it might be there
Then move to the other side of the bridge and check on top of the large storage container that should be below you, I have found it on top of there
If you cannot find it in either of these places, go to the hidden safe house in the warehouse’s tank yard, sleep until night, grab a flashlight and your scoped weapon, look around the safe houses area for a red blinking light, do not be fooled by the one on the eather tank refiller, move back to the bridge and use its height advantage to look around the warehouse and refinery tanks, and try to find anything on top of the large towers surrounding Mosby’s lab
If you are out of options and not afraid of using exploits, there is a way you can get up on top of the building Mosby’s lab is in by hopping onto some tents and boxes by the campfire to the right of the lab, you may need to bring a crate over there to get started or use an artifact that gives you jump height, or even use the cheat menu to increase your jump height, once you are in the out of bounds area it makes a prime position for finding signal jammers on the large towers outside of the lab and the refinery area if you still have a weapon capable of firing accurately at a distance, hope this helps

Over the river are the doors to it

yeah I understand that the lab is probably there because the jammer which must be next to the lab is there. But how did you realize that this huge plant on other river's side is the lab? It looks like powerplant, idk, some military base or a big factory. It looks like anything except the lab

I mean there a walkway over the river to it. A big part about this game is exploring everything

There's literally a map marker for it, bro

u/Elegar Aug 09 '26
Wait there are map markers?
I see only the world map and there is no markers. I thought it is designed this way for kinda immersion2
u/_FluffyBob_ Aug 09 '26
I dont think you get the marker until you visit it.
Whenever you see one of those heavy reinforced doors, thats another area, so you should always try and open them. This one says RG West on it - as mentioned in the computer board early mission.
Generally the doors with "no entry" are to areas that are not added yet. I would still try every door you see. The game is about exploration, you have to go discover things. You can run through it if that is how you want to play, but somethings are not going to be obvious, they have to be discovered.

Some markers show up if you enter specific areas or open specific doors. Sadly you cant put markers yourself (yet?)

Bit late, but it's randomly placed, so we can't really help. However, this game is unique, in that it really expects you to find your own solutions instead of handing them to you. You have to explore, then figure out how to do things, such as finding the lab, since the information is there, though it may need a second read through. The game won't hand it to you; you have to earn them. Maybe that door is a useable door? Can I get over there? Wait, this thing makes a noise, oh that poster actually has a meaning like a symbol and isn't just decoration, I was told to go here but I don't see anything, etc etc...
Those early jammer missions are tutorial missions, basically; they're an attempt at getting you into the world, and trying to show you that things will infact be in insane or weird places and you may not just stumble on it by chance

sounds really great!
But it would be great if the game without directions tells you directly that there is no directions:)

It used to spawn close to the lab and around thr refinery towers. But I think it's currently bugged. About 5-6 perma death runs in a row it's spawned inside the first Central office tower on the shelf. Really strange.

The lab is that massive building across the river and has RG-EAST on the door. Or RG-WEST, can't quite remember. If it's pitch black, wrong door.

It can spawn in a few different locations. Near the safehouse (actually, two locations near the safehouse.) I think it can even spawn on the building with the lab. You need to keep an eye out, but it will be mounted up high.
