The Quest/Mission structure of Saints Row IV is a little confusing, because:
- Quests are not Missions: Missions are Objectives in Quests.
- Quests can have multiple Objectives, including multiple Missions as part of one Quest.
- Missions are started by choosing Objectives, subsequent Objectives/Mission may auto-start.
- Mission names do not usually match Quest names or Objective names.
- Mission names are shown after completing the Mission, and are then listed in Completed Quests.
- Side Quests become available after completing certain Objectives/Quests.
- Side Quests may also have Missions as objectives.
So, let's get this right the first time!
- When starting a Quest or new Objective:
- Check and note down the Objectives listed in the Quest menu
- Immediately try to exit it, and note down the name.
- After completing each Quest or Objective:
- Note down the name on the completion screen - this is the Mission name.
- Save the game, and note down the name on the save screen - this is the Quest name.
- Check the name shown in the Completed Quests list.
- Check which Side Quests are available.
I'm fairly sure that these simple steps can be used to make sense of the Quest/Mission structure.

- Ah, MM_2_CID - Mysterious Caller!
- This is why CID is suddenly thrown into the story with no fucking introduction.
- This "Mysterious Caller" mission was supposed to be CIDs introduction.

- As with SRTT, all the mission names are in all caps, so we need to decide on capitalisation.
- 452, 2013-08-23T04:59:06Z
- See: Forum:SRIV missions for a very messy list.
- I'll work on it more later.

- But during the meanwhilst, people should feel free to use this information - because that's why I uploaded it

- Since the side quests consist of City Takeover gameplay, and not actually real missions, I propose we just put them on a single Side Quests page, listing the objectives for each, the reward and the transcripts.
- The transcripts are only 2 lines per quest, so I don't think it will get excessive. But if it turns out that there's too much information for a single page, we can always split it later.
