Jarhead European Extreme Challenge

You may or may not have heard of the Jarhead Challenge guide created by the Steam user Roni before. A short explanation will be provided in case you haven't met that guide before:

The Jarhead Challenge guide, created by the Steam user Roni, intends to introduce a playstyle with limited support, weapons & equipment to adjust the gameplay to a rather minimalistic playstyle to enhance the experience. These limitations include, but are not limited to the deployment cost, certain HUD elements, fulton deployment, etc.
These limitations varies between the difficulties.

There are two difficulties for the challenges so far, of which being the Jarhead Challenge and the Jarhead Extreme Challenge.

The guide of which you are reading right now intends to add another difficulty, which is called the Jarhead European Extreme Challenge.

Jarhead European Extreme Challenge by Noobydoo

The Jarhead European Extreme challenge aims to increase the difficulty of the already existing Jarhead Extreme challenge by further restricting the choices of weapons and equipment while also adding requirements to complete the mission.

This challenge intends to push the player to their limits. Only the most committed ones shall succeed.

The missions have to be completed with the following parameters:

• S RANK
  
• NO RETRIES
  
• PERFECT STEALTH, NO KILLS

The Jarhead European Extreme challenge consist of certain rules, similar to the Jarhead Challenge, though with greater restrictions and requirements.

Just like the Jarhead Extreme Challenge, the player will be restricted to use the lowest rank soldier available in the unit.


Instead of usual limitation in terms of deployment and support cost, the limitation of this challenge will be to deploy with the lowest possible expenses, which heavily limits the possible variety of weapons and equipment to deploy with. Since GMP deployment costs can vary from each player, there will be a list of selectable weapons and equipment instead.
The SVG-76 grade 1 is the only permitted primary gun, as it is the cheapest one of that category.
The WU S.PISTOL grade 1, AM D114 grade 1 and the WATER PISTOL grade 3 are the only permitted secondary guns, as they all share the same deployment costs.
The MAGAZINE grade 1 is the only permitted support weapon, as it doesn't have any deployment costs at all.
Items are not permitted.
The FULTON DEVICE grade 1 is the only permitted tool.
Only the uniforms with the lowest possible deployment costs are permitted, which ideally will be limited to the online uniforms, as they have no deployment costs. However, deployment with other uniforms with the next lowest possible deployment costs will be granted if there is no access to the online content of the game. That permits DLC uniforms as well.
BALACLAVA, SP-HEADGEAR and HP-HEADGEAR are permitted.
Deployment with buddies is not permitted.
Deployment with vehicles is not permitted. However, utilization of vehicles within missions is permitted.

Modified weapons are not permitted.

The helicopter remains at the base configurations without any additional attachments, to only the chassis UTH-66 BLACKFOOT grade 1 remains. However, the modification of the helicopter's color is permitted.

Everything else that is not listed here and increases deployment costs is also not permitted.

Ideally, the sortie prep will look exactly or similar like this:

The mission deployment always has to be within free roam, which is being achieved by deploying into the mission area beforehand, then selecting the mission within the iDroid and then moving towards the mission start point.


Deployment via ACC is only permitted if it's mandatory. However, the deployment time always has to be ASAP in that regard.

The utilization of the FULTON DEVICE, requesting SUPPLY DROP and requesting HELICOPTER PICK UP & HELICOPTER SUPPORT are not permitted unless it is mandatory.
However, the player is permitted to redirect the helictopter, extract entities or exfiltrate if it deploys on its own.

The gameplay and display options have to be limited to the following settings:

• Subtitle Diplay - None
  
• Score Display - OFF
  
• Marker Display - OFF
  
• Reticle Display - OFF
  
• Enemy Presence Display - OFF
  
• Damage Direction Display - OFF
  
• Action Icon Display - OFF
  
• Show Weapons/Itens Icons - OFF

• Chicken Hat - OFF
  
• Reflex Mode - OFF

The following missions are excluded of the Jarhead European Extreme Challenge:

• Episode 0: Prologue: Awakening
  
• Episode 2: Diamond Dogs
  
• Episode 43: Shining Lights, Even in Death
  
• Episode 46: Truth - The Man Who Sold the World

Huge shoutout to the creator of the original Jarhead Challenge. This guide wouldn't exist without the genius idea of Roni that created the actual Jarhead challenge in the first place.

Similar to the original challenge, this is the dedicated section for those who have conquered this insane challenge. If YOU wish to submit your runs and become a part of the Hall of Fame, there are only very few things to consider:

• Record the video from the beginning of the mission to the final result screen with no video interruption in-between (no pausing of the recording & no trimming)
  
• Publish the video on a platform that is accessible for everyone (YouTube, Twitch, Dailymotion, etc.,)

The following sections consist of the brave soldiers that have proven to have conquered this challenge:
