From Exodus3000 Wiki

Missions were added to Exodus 3000 around December, 2007, with many more added in 2008. As of now there are a total of 25 missions. Along with several hidden missions. To start a mission you must first it through either landing on a plain, crater, ruins, dunes, settlement, or a homestead. Once you find a mission it will be saved under the missions tab. You must activate a mission by clicking activate in the missions area, in order to be able to complete it.

Each mission will give you experience point based on the difficulty of finding and completing the mission.

Experience points are gained from completing various missions. There is no word yet on what these experience points can get you. More than likely they will be redeemable for some type of prize, or help your progress in the game itself.

You can also get a prize for completing a mission in anytime moves, various cards, etc, although some will give you nothing. Each mission requires various tasks to be done or items to be traded, in order to complete.

Most missions only require you to go to an outpost to drop off items, others require you to find out specific coordinates of the map and trade items there. Missions must be done in a series and you cannot skip to another mission without completing the prior one to it. Usually this is covered in the description of the mission.

There are also hidden missions in the game, found the same way as regular missions. No info is available on how to complete them at this time.
