3. CONFIGURING YOUR CONTROLS
--------------------------------------FUTURE SHOCK will allow you to set up
almost any control scheme you desire.
The best combination for most people is
the mouse/keyboard combo.
JOYSTICK: If you want to use a
joystick for any of the controls, you
can assign either small joystick
movements, or large joystick movements
to any action. First, calibrate your
joystick and then select the action
you want to assign the joystick to.
A small joystick movement will assign
JOY A to the action. A large joystick
movement will assign JOY B to the
action.
Joystick movement type B works very
well when using it as a RUN action.
Many gamers enjoy using the mouse/
joystick combo. If you want to do
this, configure the joystick to the
following actions:
Forward = JOY FWD A
Reverse = JOY BACK A
Slide Left = JOY LEFT A
Slide Right = JOY RIGHT A
Run = JOY FWD B
Jump = JOY BUTT 1
Activate = JOY BUTT 2
This way, the joystick will control
your feet and the mouse will
control your aim. Try it out!
MOUSE: Mouse movement can only be
used to turn and look up and down.
The mouse buttons can be assigned
to any action, though.
Two items have been added to the
mouse configuration. Sensitivity
has been broken up into both
horizontal and vertical. You can also
reverse the vertical movement so that
rolling the mouse forward will look
up as opposed to down.
4. HINTS AND TIPS
--------------------------------------Here are some hints and tips that
should help you defeat SkyNet.
JUMPING: If you are having trouble
jumping, the game can get very
frustrating very fast. To make jumping
easier, the game allows you to actually
move while in the air (less realistic,
but more fun). Thus, if you are having
trouble with a jump, try pressing the
jump key first, and then moving while
you are in the air. Also, there are
many jumps which require you to run.
Since you can move in the air, you can
hold RUN, hit JUMP, and then hit
FORWARD. With a little practice, the
jumps become fairly easy.
DRIVING: This can be very tricky for
less experienced players. If you are
having trouble driving and looking
around at the same time, simply stop
the car and shoot the enemies before
continuing. You will find the car's
gun and armor to be very heavy. Be
careful though, if the enemies get
to close to your car, they may jump
on top of, or into it. This can be
an instant death for even the best
Resistance fighter. Reconfiguring
your controls may help also.
AMMO USE: Use your ammunition wisely.
Conserve ammo by using the best gun/
ammo combo for as many enemies as
you can. For instance, you could waste
a lot of time and bullets on a Seeker
Globe, when one Shotgun blast will
nuke it! Proper use of grenades will
will help in ammo conservation.
SEARCHING BUILDINGS: You can go in any
building with a door. You never know
what you may find inside. Searching
buildings has kept Resistance soldiers
alive many times.
SAVE OFTEN: Death can lie around any
corner.
