    Why the fuck can't you quit out of mission and go back to free roaming mode?

    So I'm being sent into a clusterfuck of snipers, rocket launchers and small but extemely vicious dogs, all of which invariable ends in my horrible death. I figure I'll leave it for a while and go back to exploring the island - maybe find some health, hunt some animals for better weapon holsters, that kind of thing.

    Worryingly, there's only a Restart Mission option in the menu. Choosing that only takes me to the (unskippable) cutscene at the mission's start. So I let that play out and then just head away from where I'm supposed to go. Surely the game will just give me the Mission Failed screen and then leave me to my own devices, letting me return to the mission when I'm ready?

    Nope. I get the Mission Failed message all right, but that's followed by a loading screen and then fuck me if I'm back at the last checkpoint, just after the cutscene. I have no other save, so my two choices seem to be: do the mission with whatever shit you have or start the whole game over from scratch. Unless I'm missing something?
