"On 4/21, you'll be airlifted into a dangerous warzone on an offshore oil platform. A decommissioned Oil Rig is being used to store stolen government funds! Your job is to secure the platform and recover the stolen funds and resources but don’t venture too close to the edge! Let’s hope you know how to swim. There are no lifeguards on duty on this Oil Rig. Central Command has provided as much intel as possible for you to fight hard and return these stolen funds and resources. They have also provided a ton of new bug fixes to make you the best soldier you can be! Fight hard!"
