More problems with Stalker story. Am I doomed? *spoilers* - by Vigo

Alright, so I found Ghost, and the PDA that mentions that I have to find a guy called "Guide" in order to meet the next member of Strelok's gang. The PDA says that he's in Cordon, but there's no quest map pin showing me where he is! I heard that this can happen if you leave the Agropom Research bunker from the entrace you came from, thus failing to complete the "find strelok's stash" quest. But I went back to Agropom and left from the exit I was supposed to, and completed that quest, but still there isn't any quest marker for finding guide. Am I totally boned? Is there still some way to get the "find guide" quest?
God damn it, this game was so fun up until this point. I really don't want to start from the beginning :(

I'm not sure, if there's another solution to your problem, but you could try loading a save before going to agroprom, and just play that section over.

I played exactly as you did, but I've never had such a problem, so I don't think it is due to your way of proceeding through the storyline... or I was just lucky.
Anyway, do you have at least the entry in pda with the quest assigned? If that's so, don't worry, Guide is not hard to find. Play it seriously and don't follow the markers :) You'll find it.
Otherwise, here's his location :
[SPOILER]Once you're in the cordon, if you go down the road, on the left there will be a wreckaged truck. A little further there will be a ruin of a building. Search those ruins.[/SPOILER]

These missing quest map markers seem to be more common issue, but quite a random one.
The map marker wasn't missing in case of Guide quest, but for me they were missing in case of "Find the weapon of a Dutyer" and "Kill Poker bandit" jobs, suspiciously both of them are supposed to have destination in Dark Valley, but instead the map centres on Agroprom institute.

Nope. No quest entry. But I did have the PDA diary that told me about Guide. That's what first clued me into thinking that something was wrong. :(

Then try to go where I told you to. I don't mean to sound to harsh, but if you won't find him there, kiss 2 of 7 endings goodbye.
(Yes. Those 2 best endings.)

Yeah, I forgot to mention that I've already searched that area thoroughly. Ah well.

Actually on your first playthrough just go to the Monolith.
I thought the monolith was pretty cool. As I got closer to the Monolith I started stripping, dropping guns and ammos and just abandoning the survival essentials, cus, I'm finally here :D
