Explanation
Here's just a general rundown of the ins and outs of quests in Huxley.

To receive a quest talk to an NPC with a yellow Q (Image) above their head. Chose the option on the left and a new box will pop up with active quests. Clicking on a quest will change the text in the original NPC text box and right under the new text will be the option to accept the quest. Once accepting a quest the NPC you received it from should now have a grey Q above their head. To complete quests talk to the NPC with a blue Q above their head. To see your active quests in your journal hit the J key. In your journal menu there will be up to three options, two buttons and a check box. The button on the left is the abandon quest option, not all quests have it. The button on the right shows quest details. By clicking the check box you'll be able to keep track of your objectives for that quest on your HUD, multiple boxes can be checked at once.

Most quests will involve you killing enemies of some kind or collecting an item they drop. To go out into the field walk into one of the doors that is glowing green/teal, these areas are also marked with a . The orange box on the left is for specific quests in that area, the blue box on the right is for free play in the area.

Training

Pretty straightforward here, whenever you see yellow text and hear them talking you won't be able to move. After listening to them talk walk forward and jump up the stairs. Continue following the arrows and crouch under the two obstacles. Follow the arrows down the hall into the next room. Jump into the big hole with a strong air current coming out of it, you should be propelled to the platform above. Jump across and follow the arrows to the next room. Walk into the ammo pickup and through the door on the left. Follow the arrows through the room and shoot all the targets that pop up. You'll end up back at the ammo pickup. Use your grenade launcher to knock down the first three targets. Switch over to your beam rifle and shoot the targets in the distance. Grab the ammo pickup and head to the next room. Walk up the ramp and stand on the platform at the end for a few seconds, it will lower thusly opening the door you need to go through. Use your speed ability (default V) to get through before it closes. The next room is the final part, keep killing the bot and he'll eventually stop spawning and you're finished with training.

Boot Camp Quests

Quest 1

After entering the training camp area you'll see a message pop up on your screen. Select the option on the left and talk to the man straight ahead to finish the quest.

Quest 2

Talk to the NPC on the platform to receive the quest, talk to him again to complete it.

Quest 3

Talk to the NPC on the platform to receive the quest, you should receive some head gear. Your objective is to go out into the field, kill 10 small blue crawlers and reach the NPC at the end. The path is pretty linear and you'll be fighting crawlers but nothing too hard. Walk into the teleporter at the end to return to town.

Quest 4

Talk to the Armor NPC to receive the quest. Your objective is to equip the head gear you received in Quest 3.

Quest 5
Talk to the NPC on the platform to receive this quest, first of two quests available from this NPC at this point. Your objective is to kill five Large Green Crawlers, you can find these in the river near the bridge leading to the first NPC and teleporter. I suggest making quests 5 and 6 active at the same time since you'll be killing two birds with one stone.

Quest 6

Talk to the NPC on the platform to receive this quest, second of two quests available from this NPC at this point. Your objective is to kill ten Small Tan Crawlers. You'll find these mixed in with Small Blue Crawlers and you'll have to explore pretty far into the level to find all ten. I suggest making quests 5 and 6 active at the same time since you'll be killing two birds with one stone.

Quest 7

Talk to the Weapon NPC to receive this quest. Your objective is to take a quest item to an NPC over by one of the gates.

Quest 8

Talk to the Weapon NPC to receive this quest. Your objective is to find three items dropped by Large Blue Crawlers. You an find these are clos to the end of the level, before the teleporter near the crashed ship. These look very similar to the Small Blue Crawlers but give +1 BP and have different drops so I'm classifying them as different enemies.

Quest 9

Talk to the Repair NPC to receive this quest. This is the first quest where you'll use the orange box to go into the field. Your objective is to find an NPC and their aircraft in the forest, you'll see some dead crawlers near the objective. Hit E on the NPC to start the conversation, after that you'll have to defend them from a Crawler attack for one minute. Once that's done go to her again and she'll leave. Take a left out of the area and follow the road to the second teleporter in the area. The NPC on the rock will talk for a minute and then the teleporter will activate.

Quest 10

After returning from Quest 9 you'll be prompted with another box, like the one after training. Click the left option and go talk to the NPC on the platform.

Quest 11

Talk to the Weapon NPC to receive this quest. Your objective is to kill 5 HLO Grenade Launcher Soldiers and 5 HLO Machine Gun Soldiers, take the other gate out of town to start out near the wrecked ship. I suggest keeping a distance if possible, the grenade soldiers are especially dangerous.

Quest 12

Talk to the Repair NPC to receive this quest. Your objective is to collect 3 items dropped by Large Green Crawlers. You may have to run through the level more than once since there are only a few Large Green Crawlers and it's a somewhat rare drop.

Quest 13
Talk to the NPC on the platform to receive this quest. Your objective is to talk to the NPC next to the computer terminal.

Quest 14

Talk to the NPC next to the computer terminal to receive this quest. Once you receive the quest talk to him again like you would to complete the quest, after a few seconds you will be sent into a deathmatch with you against two bots. Not too hard, just have more points than them by the end of three minutes. Use whatever you like but the grenade launcher is very effective on the small stage.

Quest 15

Talk to the female NPC in front of a tent to receive this quest. Once you receive the quest talk to her again like you would to complete the quest. After a few seconds you will be sent into the arena. Turn the corner, go up the stairs and wait at the gate until you see a scene and it rises. After each phase go into the teleporter and head back up to the arena.

Phase 1
Wave 1: 1 Small Blue Crawler
Wave 2 :2 Small Blue Crawlers
Wave 3: 3 Small Blue Crawlers
Wave 4: 5 Small Blue Crawlers
Wave 5: 10 Small Blue Crawlers

Phase 2

Wave 3: 6 Large Green Crawlers

Phase 4

Wave 2: 3 Large Tan Crawlers, 3 Large Blue Crawlers

Phase 5
Wave 1: 1 Small Blob. Your goal is to kill it and make it explode between the two boxes, destroying them.
Wave 2: Hybrid Boss:Gorilla. You cannot kill this enemy, run to the gate on the right and it will close behind you, talk to the NPC to return to town.

Quest 16

Talk to the male NPC to the left of one of the gates in front of a tent to receive this quest. Once you receive the quest talk to him again like you would to complete the quest, after a few seconds you will be sent into a mission where you will have to fly the aircraft through obstacles. After both NPCs are done talking the forcefield in front of the aircraft will lower, press E on the aircraft to get in. Fly through the green targets until you reach the end, there you will have to fight another aircraft. After defeating the enemy aircraft land at the designated point and leave your vehicle.

Quest 17

Talk to the male NPC to the left of one of the gates in front of a tent to receive this quest. Once you receive the quest talk to him again like you would to complete the quest, after a few seconds you will be sent into a mission where you will have to drive the Buggy through obstacles.

Quest 18

Talk to the Repair NPC to receive this quest. Once you receive the quest talk to a male NPC next to one of the gates like you would to complete the quest, after a few seconds you will be sent into a mission where you will have to fly an aircraft and kill crawlers. Go to each objective point and kill crawlers until you're told to go to another area. After clearing 2 areas you'll be faced with a Hybrid Boss:Rocket, if you stay high enough in the air he won't be able to shoot you. Continue to the next objective area. After clearing this area and a bit of talking you'll have to destroy the beam supporting the entrance to a cave.

Quest 19

Upon reaching level 7 you will have another message pop up on your screen. Select the left button and talk to the NPC on the platform to choose your class. At this point your training is complete and you'll be able to head over to the main city.

Main City Quests

Quest 1

Upon arriving in the city a message will pop up on your screen. Select the option on the left and talk to the girl next to the pillar. You'll receive a new weapon after completing your quest dependent on your class. Enforcers get a Shotgun, Avengers get a Rocket Launcher and Phantoms get a Sniper Rifle.

Quest 2

Talk to the girl next to the pillar to receive this quest. Your objective is to kill ten Small Grey Crawlers, these enemies are abundant in the Subway.
