Mission Checkpoints

Depending on your difficulty setting, every mission contains a single checkpoint somewhere within it (you'll know you've passed one when "Checkpoint" appears at the base of the screen). If you die beyond the checkpoint you can opt to return to that point instead of starting all over again. Bear in mind that your statistics won't be recorded if you restart from a checkpoint and move on to complete the mission, but the game will record that you've completed it on the current difficulty setting. Read on to find out where and in which difficulty settings you'll find checkpoints.
