RE Heads Please boardmarker quest: Step-by-Step Route

The RE Heads Please boardmarker quest is a collectible-style objective centered on finding five boardmarkers. The most reliable way to approach it is to divide the map into search zones and complete one zone before moving to the next. This method reduces backtracking and makes it easier to identify the marker you may have missed.

Because boardmarkers can blend into the environment, do not rely only on the main road or the most obvious scenery. Search around the edges of each area, especially near corners, walls, props, raised platforms, and narrow paths. If the game allows your character to jump or climb, inspect those routes before leaving a zone.

Video Highlights:

• The tutorial is specifically titled around finding all five boardmarkers.
• Use it as a visual reference while comparing your own route.
• Pause between locations and mark each confirmed collectible separately.

The available reference focuses on the five-marker objective rather than broader game systems. For that reason, this guide emphasizes a repeatable search process instead of assigning unverified names to locations. Map layouts and object placement can change, so visual confirmation is more dependable than memorizing a landmark name.

A clean route has three stages:

• Discovery: Find a possible boardmarker.
• Confirmation: Collect it and verify the quest response.
• Tracking: Record the marker before continuing.

This structure is useful for both first attempts and cleanup runs. On a first attempt, it prevents confusion. On a second attempt, it helps narrow the search to the exact zone that remains incomplete.

Start by identifying the most recognizable central point in the current map area. This may be a spawn point, a large building, a road junction, or another location that is easy to recognize. From there, choose a direction and search outward in a consistent pattern.

A clockwise sweep works well because it gives each section a clear order. A counterclockwise route is equally valid. The important part is consistency: changing direction whenever you see an interesting object makes it difficult to know which spaces you already checked.

Use the following priority order when entering a new zone:

Do not leave a section just because it looks empty from the entrance. Move the camera from side to side and walk close to suspicious objects. A boardmarker that is partially covered may not be visible while running at full speed.

When the environment contains several similar paths, give them temporary labels such as “left path,” “upper route,” or “building side.” These labels do not need to be official names. Their purpose is to help you remember which branch has already been searched.

A useful five-zone plan looks like this:

This table is a route framework, not a claim about official in-game zone names. Adapt the labels to the map layout visible in your session.

The following process is designed for a fresh attempt. It also works after collecting some markers, although you should begin by checking the quest counter or another available progress indicator.

The route is most efficient when each pickup produces a clear record. A simple log can look like this:

If the counter does not update immediately, pause briefly and check whether the item was actually collected. Some interfaces provide feedback through a small notification or delayed quest update. Avoid assuming that touching an object completed the objective unless the game confirms it.

Use a slow movement pattern in areas with tight scenery:

• Walk along one wall until you reach the end.
• Turn around and inspect the opposite side.
• Check behind large objects from more than one angle.
• Look upward before leaving the area.
• Re-enter the zone if the counter remains incomplete.

This procedure takes longer than sprinting directly between landmarks, but it makes the final missing-marker search much shorter.

Most failed collectible runs are caused by tracking problems rather than difficult movement. Players often remember seeing a boardmarker but forget whether it was collected. Others search the same central route repeatedly while ignoring side paths.

Camera control is especially important. A collectible may be visible from one angle and hidden from another. When checking a prop or wall, move around it rather than relying on a single viewpoint.

If you finish the map and still need one marker, do not restart immediately. First perform a focused audit:

1. Review your checklist and identify the first zone without a confirmed entry.
2. Return to that zone using the same landmark used during the first pass.
3. Check every branch, corner, and elevated route.
4. Revisit objects that blocked your view.
5. Confirm the quest counter after each new pickup.

A restart can be useful only when your route record is too unclear to identify the missing section. Otherwise, restarting removes useful information. A targeted cleanup run is usually easier because you already know which paths were checked.

The five-marker objective can also be completed more smoothly with a partner, if multiplayer cooperation is available. One player can inspect the main route while another checks side spaces. Both players should communicate confirmed pickups clearly and avoid counting the same marker twice.

Use this checklist during your run. It is intentionally location-neutral so it remains useful when the map, scenery, or marker placement changes.

The most important habit is to separate finding from confirming. A possible sighting helps guide your search, but only a verified pickup should count toward the five-marker objective. Follow a fixed route, keep a written record, and use the tutorial as a visual reference when your own search reaches a difficult section.
