Survivors has no trophies, no notes and no supply crates. It is one of the shortest missions in the campaign and works as the opening of Stranded, which starts straight after it. Play it at whatever pace you like.
Survivors
Where: North Korea, behind enemy lines. A raid into the North has gone wrong, and the mission opens in the wreckage with Kal and the rest of the squad. Most of it is walking and hiding; there is no real firefight.

Out of the wreckage
Follow Kal and the others away from the crash. When an enemy patrol appears, go prone like the rest of the squad and wait for it to pass, then get up and carry on.

The searchlight
Along the stream a helicopter sweeps the ground with a searchlight. Stay out of the beam: crouch and keep close to the wall on your left until it moves on.

Carry Cho
Cho collapses on the way. Pick him up to continue; the mission does not move on until you do. From here to the end there are no more enemies. You can talk with Cho as you walk, and none of the dialogue choices changes how the mission plays out.

The shelter
The squad reaches a house. Follow them down into the basement; a long cutscene plays at the bottom of the stairs and the mission ends there. Stranded follows on directly.
Finishing Survivors gives a Double XP Token for multiplayer and DMZ.
Before Stranded
The next mission is the campaign’s one open map, and four of the eighteen trophies are earned in it: the yellow supply crates, the Base Camp repairs, the SAM Site vehicles and the notes. There is no clock in Stranded, so nothing needs to be rushed, and every trophy in the game can also be cleaned up later through mission select. The Stranded chapter of this guide has the full route, the crate list and every keypad code.
