TIPS & TRICKS
==============================================================================
- Follow SP (Strategic Point?) points which are on the screen marked green and they will lead you
through the whole mission. To pass all SP points is not the condition of a successful end of mission.
If you choose your way and, with the help of SATCAM or in any other way, fulfil all Objectives, you
can go to the Extraction point and end the mission.
- Notice your objectives (TAB), after fulfilling individual tasks they change colour (to green)
- The enemy cannot hear you if you come from behind him in “walking mode”.
- Using the silencer (on weapons with this possibility) you avoid unwanted attention from far away
enemies who cannot see you.
- When using walk mode and silencer, enemy cannot hear you; but take care that you hit the target,
because the enemy can hear the bullet hit an object near him..
- Beware of ricocheted bullets! From hard materials (steel, concrete etc.) the bullet can ricochet and
injure or kill you. That applies also to enemies, not every inaccurate shot means loss of time.
- Materials such as textile (tent), wood (watch tower) etc., may let bullets pass straight through or
may cause the bullet to change direction.
- Use SATCAM (V). The position on the SATCAM screen corresponds to the cardinal directions
North, South, East and West. That means if the position of your player in SATCAM mode is in the
centre, then objects at the top of the screen are due NORTH, at the bottom, SOUTH etc. After
switching back to game use the COMPASS to target the object from SATCAM
- You can use the SAVE GAME option only 3 times during each mission; by restarting the mission
you loose the saved positions
- In TACTICAL mode, if you have visual contact with your team-mate, there is a fast way to reposition him; point the crosshair of your weapon at him, hold LCTRL and press LMB, an arrow appears,
you move it to requested position and by again pressing LMB give the command to the soldier to
move.
- When using SATCHEL (explosive) be careful that you are at a safe distance while launching the
explosives
- Beware of camp watch towers: snipers, who can shoot over long distances, can be in them
- Petrol barrels are in every camp, and can explode and injure you if you hit them, but you could also
use them to eliminate your enemy.
- Try not to shoot at too many enemies at the same time; it is very difficult to get out of such a situation. In the game first-aid boxes are not available, so take care!
- If you shoot without a silencer, the enemy can hear you from a long distance and try to get ready
for you. He can also hear bullets that miss their target, not to mention the visual contact. Also if he
finds the dead body of his co-fighter he will alarm others and they will try to liquidate you, so be
careful.
- If you lie and move slowly it is more difficult to hit you.
- If you hit the enemy in the legs you make impossible for him to run or walk; however, he is still
alive, lying down and still able to shoot.
- In the case that you run out of ammunition or if you like the weapon of the enemy you have eliminated, first you have to drop your gun (G), and only then can you pick another one (LCTRL+LMB)
- You can get out of the car (G) only after the car stops
-7-
- Use Fire mode (F) to save bullets and increase your shot effectiveness
- Do not forget that you have grenades (G) that you can use when enemies are grouped together
- Vehicles can be destroyed by close explosion or shooting. Their destruction is accompanied by a
secondary explosion that can injure you; therefore be careful to choose protection against enemy
fire. Also be careful while shooting and using grenades; a damaged vehicle will not be usable.
- It is not possible to shoot while in the vehicle, so you have to get out or try to knock down the
enemy.
