Stranded river checkpoint puzzle

Sum of all Infantry Checkpoints along the river

Answer: 0008. The Island Hidden Bunker uses 1 + 2 + 5 = 8. Enter the sum as four digits, keeping all three leading zeroes.

Add the checkpoint identifiers, then format the total for the keypad.
Checkpoint numberRunning total
Infantry Checkpoint #11
Infantry Checkpoint #23
Infantry Checkpoint #58
Four-digit keypad entry0008

Use the outpost numbers described by the note, not a count of three checkpoints or Tac Map coordinates. The Farm Field puzzle uses Logistics Station numbers instead. The Small Island container is a separate lock.

Evidence: OverHyped Gamer’s bunker clip · 0:17 and AllThingsHow’s checkpoint-sum cross-check. The cross-check lists 1 + 2 + 5; the clip shows the keypad and opened bunker. This is source-reviewed guidance, not our own checkpoint collection. If your note differs, compare it with the full location and evidence before entering the answer.

Stranded Container & Bunker Locations

Stranded location schematic

Original Stranded orientation schematic: six containers and two hidden bunkers relative to Base Camp. Small Island container is northwest; Island Hidden Bunker is southwest. Not to scale.
Original Quest Field Guide diagram from the linked footage and Detonated · fajarty’s location overview. North is up. Positions show broad areas only: this is not a measured game map or a combat route. Open full-size SVG.
  1. 01Base Camp container
  2. 02South East Village container
  3. 03Cliff Near Base Camp container
  4. 04South of Jamming Station container
  5. 05Big Sign container
  6. 06Small Island container
  7. 07Farm Field Hidden Bunker
  8. 08Island Hidden Bunker

Each Stranded container code follows the number sequence on the clipboard beside its lock. Read the location name on that clipboard, then compare its sequence with the matching container entry below.

The two Stranded bunker codes come from adding the numbered stations or checkpoints described in their clues: Logistics Stations for the Farm Field Hidden Bunker, and Infantry Checkpoints along the river for the Island Hidden Bunker. These are separate puzzles with different sums.

Find the right part of the map first

Use Base Camp as your reference and keep the map’s north arrow pointing up. Each entry gives a map area, a visible landmark, and the original video. Compare the numbered locations on Detonated · fajarty’s overview map. These are location pointers, not a recommended combat route.

Two different islands: the Small Island container is northwest of Base Camp; the Island Hidden Bunker is southwest. Also, the main mission objective labeled “Bunker” is not the Farm Field or Island hidden bunker.

When following a map clip, match the cache label and nearby landmarks before setting off. The numeric readout follows the map cursor, which can sit away from the highlighted cache; use the approach footage to identify the actual entrance.

01 / container0024

Base Camp container

Map area: At Base Camp, beside the blue radio tower.

Look beside the blue radio tower at Base Camp for a container with a clipboard on its door.

Clue: The Base Camp container code in MW4 Stranded is 0024. The note lists 0006 → 0012 → 0018: add another 6 and keep both leading zeroes.

Container approach from 00:13; Base Camp note shows 0006, 0012 and 0018 around 00:19.

Code sources checked

02 / container0078

South East Village container

Map area: South of Base Camp, north of the main Bunker objective, beside the village road loop.

Search the village south of Base Camp, near the road and bridge. Match the South East Village heading on the clipboard.

Clue: To solve this Stranded container code, continue 0012 → 0034 → 0056. Each step adds 22, giving 0078 for South East Village.

Village approach from 00:25; the full 0012, 0034, 0056 note is visible at 00:32.

Code sources checked

03 / container0600

Cliff Near Base Camp container

Map area: North of Base Camp, on the hill above the camp.

Take the cliff above Base Camp and find the container beside a truck. Check that the note says Cliff Near Base Camp.

Clue: Subtract 2,900 each time: 9300 → 6400 → 3500 → 0600. Enter all four digits.

Cliff location from 00:36; the 9300, 6400, 3500 note is visible at 00:43.

Code sources checked

04 / container8609

South of Jamming Station container

Map area: In the northeastern part of the map, south/southwest of Jamming Station.

Go to the container below Jamming Station, near the tower and truck. Read its named clipboard to distinguish it from the Base Camp container.

Clue: 5903 → 6805 → 7707 becomes 8609: increase the first digit, decrease the second, and add 2 to the final pair.

Location from 00:51; the 5903, 6805, 7707 note is visible at 00:57.

Code sources checked

05 / container1234

Big Sign container

Map area: Northwest of Base Camp, along the road on the river’s eastern bank.

Find the container beside the large roadside sign. Use the Big Sign heading on its note to identify the lock.

Clue: The note progressively fills the digits: 1000 → 1200 → 1230 → 1234.

Location from 01:04; the 1000, 1200, 1230 note is visible at 01:12.

Code sources checked

06 / container6789

Small Island container

Map area: On a river island northwest of Base Camp, west/northwest of Big Sign. Use the northern island, not the bunker island farther south.

Look on the small river island near the watchtower for the shipping container. This is a container, separate from the Island Hidden Bunker.

Tac Map · Keypad marker: 618, 132

Use 618, 132 for the container’s selected Tac Map keypad marker. Prima Games independently lists the same Small Island coordinate and 6789 code. Follow the approach video for the final steps to the door.

Coordinates checked

Clue: 3456 → 4567 → 5678 shifts to the next four consecutive digits, 6789. The final digit is 9.

Location from 01:15; the Small Island note shows 3456, 4567 and 5678 at 01:20.

Code sources checked

07 / bunker0330

Farm Field Hidden Bunker

Map area: Northwest of Base Camp, on the mainland east of the river, north of Big Sign.

Search past the roadside trees by the farm fields for a concrete doorway built into the hillside. The keypad is on the wall by the warning sign. The floor hatch is inside the bunker and opens after entering the code; it is not the outdoor entrance.

Tac Map · Bunker entrance area: 630, 127

Use 630, 127 as the Tac Map reference for the bunker entrance area. Two independent gameplay maps agree, and Hritwik Raj’s 00:15 waypoint and subsequent approach corroborate the area. This locates the approach, rather than an exact standing point at the keypad.

Coordinates checked

Clue: The Stranded bunker code for Farm Field is 0330. Add the Logistics Station numbers: 10 + 20 + 100 + 200 = 330, then pad the sum to four digits.

Logistics Station #200 is shown at 01:05; keypad entry starts at 01:12, followed by the opened hatch at 01:20.

Code sources checked

08 / bunker0008

Island Hidden Bunker

Map area: On the river island southwest of Base Camp. This is south of the Small Island container’s island.

Find the concrete bunker entrance in the river island cliff face. The clipboard names Island Hidden Bunker; the container on Small Island uses a different code.

Clue: The Island Hidden Bunker code in MW4 Stranded is 0008. Its note asks for the sum of Infantry Checkpoint numbers along the river; the reported values 1 + 2 + 5 total 8.

Named clue at 00:17; 0008 is visible on the keypad at 00:20; the opened bunker interior appears at 00:25.

Stranded keypad questions

What is the sum of all Infantry Checkpoints along the river?

For the source-checked Island Hidden Bunker puzzle in MW4 Stranded, the checkpoint numbers are 1, 2, 5. Their sum is 8, so enter 0008 on the four-digit keypad. Add the checkpoint identifiers, not the number of checkpoints, coordinates or Logistics Station values. Match the Island Hidden Bunker note before using this answer.

What's the next number after 1230 in 1000, 1200, 1230?

In MW4 Stranded's Big Sign keypad puzzle, the next number is 1234. The clue fills consecutive digits from left to right: 1000, 1200, 1230, then 1234. The additions are 200, 30 and 4. Enter the next value, not one of the three old codes on the note.

What comes next after 9300, 6400, 3500?

The Cliff Near Base Camp answer is 0600. Subtract 2900 at each step: 9300 minus 2900 is 6400, 6400 minus 2900 is 3500, and 3500 minus 2900 is 600. The keypad needs four digits, so enter 0600.

What comes next after 5903, 6805, 7707?

The South of Jamming Station answer is 8609. Add 902 each time: 5903 plus 902 is 6805, 6805 plus 902 is 7707, and 7707 plus 902 is 8609.

Are these old codes reused?

The clipboard wording "Old previously used codes" introduces a number-pattern clue. Do not try the three listed old values; enter the next value for that named lock. For Big Sign, 1000, 1200 and 1230 lead to 1234. This is a campaign keypad puzzle, not a promotional code that expires or is redeemed online. Match your current clipboard to the linked footage if an update changes the clue.

Why is my MW4 Stranded code not working?

Match the lock to the location and clipboard title, clear any partial entry, and enter all four digits including leading zeroes. Small Island container and Island Hidden Bunker are different locks. If your note differs after an update, send us the note and game version through the correction link.

Are MW4 Stranded codes redeem codes?

No. These are four-digit keypad solutions inside the Modern Warfare 4 campaign mission Stranded. They are not promotional codes and are not entered on a redemption website.

What is the Small Island container code in Stranded?

The Small Island container code is 6789. The recorded note lists 3456, 4567 and 5678, so the next four consecutive digits are 6789. This matches CODMunity’s guide. Use the video linked under Small Island to compare the note.

How do I find the right Stranded container or bunker?

Start at Base Camp on the numbered location schematic, choose the named map area, then follow the landmark directions and timestamped approach video in that entry. Match the clipboard title at the entrance before using its code. The Small Island container is northwest of Base Camp; the Island Hidden Bunker is on a different island southwest of it.

What does the 45-second Stranded number-pattern video explain?

Our original video walks through the Big Sign, Cliff Near Base Camp and South of Jamming Station number patterns, ending in 1234, 0600 and 8609. It uses our own typography and arithmetic, with English captions. The independent gameplay evidence for each answer remains linked in the guide; the video is not a walkthrough of all eight locations.

Source notes & corrections

Published . These entries were checked against the named creators’ footage and the linked cross-checks on . The linked gameplay was recorded during campaign early access; that label identifies the footage’s release phase. We have not purchased or personally played MW4. Source-checked means the recorded clue or unlock agrees with another source; it does not mean an in-house playtest.

Each video link names its creator and starts at the relevant location or unlock. The two Tac Map references added on 20 October identify a selected keypad marker (Small Island) and a bunker entrance area (Farm Field). For the other six locations, the reviewed map cursor readouts could not be tied precisely to their entrances, so we retain landmark directions and approach footage. Match the clipboard at the final lock. The original schematic illustrates broad relationships and is not to scale. No third-party screenshots are republished here.
