Now I finished lowering the bridge to Limansk. On my PDA I have the reward from Clear Sky waiting for me in the HQ, but I didn't get the usual reward from the mercs, the dialog about Leishy's secret mission is missing and the merc guide don't take me anywhere.
Other guides in the game take me to various places, but not to the Swamps.
I was wondering what would happen if I made myself die by a later emission in the Swamps. Would I wake up in the Clear Sky base as if nothing had happened? Since emissions never take place in the Swamps (after the first two) I had to wait for one to be forecasted outside the Swamps, and then change level in order to be inside the Swamps when it hit.
Alas this made the game get stuck after the "Hide from emission" task failed. The surroundings looked normal but no game controls besides Pause worked, so I had to use Ctrl+Alt+Delete to end it all.

Were you in the map when it happened or in TZ?
I did some experimenting with Swamps and emissions at some point too, and being in TZ while caught in an emission always resulted in the kind of game hanging you describe above. (And i had followed the main mission properly at the time.) But while i was within the map borders, i died "normally".

---QUOTATION--- I was in the map. By coincidence I entered Swamps from Agroprom, so the emission struck around the same place as in the intro cut scene. ---END QUOTATION---
LOL
Sounds like the first mission might indeed be messing with the emission effects. (Don't know for sure though.)

Been moving around a bit more before returning to Swamps.
Alas not much is happening anywhere, it would've been great if I could somehow trigger later parts of the game, such as entering Agroprom Underground through the Twilight Zone level changers, or start the faction war.
I did get a sniper rifle and a machine gun in Army Warehouses, and of course SGIs can be found there too.

Replayed that part, seems I was too lazy killing Renegades last time to deserve any reward. ---END QUOTATION---
Ungrateful buggers, these mercs. Not only do they want you to rescue them from a 'Space Bubble' anomoly saving all their lives, but they also want you to spend a fortune in ammo covering their arses.
They're not lowering that bridge just for you and your Clear Sky mates; they need to use it, too.
Keep your eye on them. They usually camp just off the road on the opposite side to the Red Forest gates. It isn't unusual for them to find the mutant pack with their name on it, so you can check to see if Leshiy's withheld reward artifact is in his inventory.

A preoccupation with the next world is a clear indication of an inability to cope credibly with this one.

Everyone's have interesting stories. Looks like a lot of places has been searched. Really is there any space anomaly teleport in the Swamp ? I never see at the broken bridge or i didn't search there much.
