Treat the Hold the Line tables as area checklists, not an optimized travel order. Some buildings become accessible only after story or secondary objectives. Match the item name before trying to reach a sound cue through a locked route.

The location lists are cross-checked against Gameswelt, The Nerd Stash and Gamer Social Club’s published gameplay coverage. Names vary slightly between guides; the landmarks distinguish the pickup. These tables cover standard collectibles, not every Hard Case or Supply Cache.[1][2][3]
