Hint:
Recommended zone selection order:
Generally, the main mission (Garland Square) should adjust difficulty to
according to player skill, but if you are new to the game or have not played
the arcade version, here is the recommended order in which you should select
the zones, with the least challenging first, and most challenging last. This
also seems to be the main default order that the game chooses on selection
timeout:
Drycreek Plaza (Easy)
Garland Park (Medium)
Garland Technology Center (Hard)
Hint:
Increasing lives and credits:
Completion of Story Modes will normally gain you one Life and Credit. This
is shown by a screen following completion, indicating what you have
gained/unlocked in the game. Note that losing the game by running out of
Credits can also gain you a Life/Credit. Note that you can change the number
of Credits you start with in addition to Life, in the game settings.
Hint:
Zone Bosses:
Each zone has its own Boss. The following is a list of zones and the Bosses
which are featured in each:
Drycreek Plaza: M1 Tank
Garland Park: Hind D
Garland Technology Center: Tiger and Edge (URDA Special Agents)
Geyser 1: Derrick Lynch (URDA Leader)
Grassmarket Street: A-0940
Belforte Hotel: Jared Hunter (New Leader) on Jetpack
Crimson Sea: Jared Hunter (New Leader) on Speedboat
Note: The appearance of Derrick
Lynch has changed greatly from the arcade version. He now has darker skin, a
different uniform, and looks more menacing. His main weapon has changed in
design, but it still fires like his shotgun did in the arcade.
Hint:
Crisis Missions secret weapons:
Kill the opponent in brown body armor that appears for a short time in the
following levels to unlock the corresponding weapon.
Flame thrower: Drycreek
Plaza; in the store room
Gatling gun: Grassmarket Street; in the first open area
Grenade launcher; Belforte Hotel
Laser rifle: Garland Technology Center; the room with the automatic gun
turrets
Missile launcher: Garland Park; among the STF trucks.
Hint:
Tiger and Edge:
Consider Tiger and Edge to be the toughest Bosses of the main mission, with
the exception of the Geyser 1 battle with Lynch and his collective backup
troops. Tiger has brute strength and can soak up lots of bullets, while Edge
(formerly known as Edgey in the arcade version) uses acrobatics and speed to
dodge shots and catch you off-guard. Get a feel for when Tiger will throw or
swing objects in the area at you, and take cover accordingly. However, Edge
is a greater threat of the two due to his lightning speed. Very good players
can deflect his Naginatas with accurate shots. You shouldn't have to worry
about being double teamed, but if given a choice, you should be more
cautious of Edge.
