Campaign Research Data locations
By Kenji_03
A guide to earning each achievement (and earning that sweet, sweet upgrade data) for the entire campaign!

KNOWN BUG: If you collect even one file of research data on a given map, you cannot exit to the main menu and re-load, or quit and re-load, without disabling your ability to earn the achievement for that mission. The only work-around is to play a mission from start to finish and collect all the data in one sitting.

[Work In Progress]!

Mission 1
Default Data Caches: 2
Found Data Caches: 3


First Data Cache
River Bottom -- Near the South-West edge of the map, along the river shoreline.

Second Data Cache
West most corner -- If done correctly, one enemy encounter can be skipped. Do this by going directly towards the purple mission objective instead, heading to the north most end of the river (white question mark above) and then heading slowly down to the west corner -- allowing you to interact with the data without aggroing the enemy.

Third Data Cache
River Top -- Near the North-West edge of the map, along the river shoreline -- noted with the white "?". Appeared during New-Game Plus difficult.


Bonus note: A single vehicle can be hacked just north of spawn for one additional unit in this mission.

in M5 there is another cache hidden in the rightmost corner just one building further to the coast

its quite difficult to spot among the wreckage but by mousing over everything you´ll find it.

For anyone else that's having trouble for Mission 6, the bottom leftish data location is in the bottom of water, so it's super super suuuuuppppperrrrrrr hard to see, it took me my fifth playthrough to finally find it :steamsad:

Glad to see people are getting use out of this, I'll get back to cataloging the rest of the data caches soon™

A cool tip for anyone trying to get the achievements for these and play on higher difficulties in one go, is that restarting a mission doesn't get rid of your saves. So you can find all of the caches > save > restart to quickly grab them all > load back and beat the mission, and it bypasses the "can't quit or load" bug that stops you from unlocking the data achievements. It helped me a lot since I accidentally beat a few mission by just running the enemies out of resources before I found the last data thing, specifically on the mountain mission I had that happen twice.
