The guides published so far describe these two missions mainly through their trophy and their reward, not room by room. This page gives what they agree on; it does not fill the gaps with guesses.
Losing Ground
Back to Hajin City, South Korea. The North Korean invasion sweeps through the city and the allied forces fight to hold it. The mission’s trophy comes at the mortar.

The mortar (Raining Thunder)
Partway through, the mission puts you on a mortar to push on. Every round you fire is aimed at a group of enemies, and the trophy wants three rounds in a row that kill 15 between them: in practice, five with each shot. Wait for a dense group before firing; a round spent on scattered targets breaks the run.
One guide lists four chances to fire, in case one of the first three goes wrong:
- First: the hill on the left, range 3.
- Second: the street on the right, range 3 or 4.
- Third: the rooftop on the right, range 4.
- Fourth: the street on the right again, range 3 or 4.
If the trophy has not unlocked after the third shot, the same guide advises reloading the checkpoint there: once the mission moves on, getting back to the mortar means replaying the mission.
Kill 15 enemies with 3 mortar rounds in a row in Losing Ground. Any difficulty.
Reward: finishing Losing Ground unlocks a loading screen for multiplayer.
The loading screen’s name: GameRant, Games Atlas and Power Up Gaming call it Ready Line; Insider Gaming calls it Ready Live.
Traffic
Back to Paris. A meeting in the city turns deadly when cartel rivals turn its streets into a war zone.

No trophy here
None of the 18 trophies is tied to Traffic, and it has no notes or other collectibles. Play it on whatever difficulty you like; a Realism run for the Was it worth it? trophy will bring you back through it later anyway.
Finishing Traffic unlocks the Luca Operator.
Chapter Completion
Six missions in, the campaign has moved between Hajin City, New York, North Korea and Paris. Price’s trip with Valeria continues in the next mission.

Cross-checked
Cross-checked on 21 October 2026 against IGN’s mission list and its note locations, Polygon’s and Games Atlas’s mission lists, the trophy guides and lists of PowerPyx, Insider Gaming, GameRant and GAMES.GG, and the reward lists of Insider Gaming, GameRant, Games Atlas and Power Up Gaming. The four firing chances, their ranges and the advice to reload after the third shot are PowerPyx’s alone; waiting for a dense group is PowerPyx’s and GAMES.GG’s. The one-line premise of each mission follows IGN’s mission list, with Polygon and Games Atlas agreeing on where each is set. KeenGamer’s and Sportskeeda’s walkthroughs of these missions refused our requests, so they were not read. Not from a playthrough: nobody here has played it.
