Trivia

  • ◆In real life, the Mexican Army is famous for having been the first army to adopt and use a semi-automatic rifle (the Mondragón rifle) in 1899, and the first to issue semi-automatic weapons as standard issue, in 1908. However, no such weapons appear in-game.
  • ◆The name of the army in real life at the time of the game's events was the Federal Army.
  • ◆If the player has completed the mission "An Appointed Time" and has a bounty exceeding $1000, they will receive a pop-up message reading: "The Mexican Army has found your trail", similar to how the U.S. Marshals work when the player is in America.
  • ◆After the Mexican Army betrays John Marston, they will return to neutral and will not attack the player unless a crime is committed.
  • ◆Before their defeat, Mexican soldiers can often be seen committing summary executions on back trails of Mexico.
  • ◆In multiplayer, if players commit a crime in Cochinay, the Mexican Army comes. This is presumably a glitch.
  • ◆The Mexican Army and Reyes' Rebels experience a complete role reversal in the game. At the beginning, the Mexican Army and the Federales are the authority in Nuevo Paraíso with the Rebels in hiding. By the end, the Rebels become the law enforcement in Mexico with the Army now in the hiding, notably in Torquemada and El Matadero.
  • ◆The appearance of undead Mexican Army soldiers in "A Civilized Man" marks the only time in Undead Nightmare where such undead Mexican Army soldiers can be seen.
