Hint:
Unlimited strength or accuracy:
This trick requires two players. When you find a Strength or Accuracy Glyph,
have both players stand on it. Then, both players should press A
simultaneously. If done correctly, two lines should appear, stating that
both players' skills have improved, and the Glyph should glow again. The
Glyph is now infinite. You must do this the first time you use the Glyph.
Health and Energy Glyphs also can do this, but you have to do the same thing
only on the fourth time.
Hint:
Extra lives:
If you kill every zombie and creature in a level, you get three extra lives.
The best way to do this is to keep attacking from distance and not go
forward until every creature in that section is killed.
Hint:
Defeating Arkady the wolf:
Make sure you have a couple of rockets remaining. When he tries to combo
you, get away. Take out your rocket launcher, and before he ends his combo,
launch a rocket. For help, use the Ward Edge on all Bosses. If you use the
Ward Edge, take out your melee weapon and slash from behind. Watch out for
his 360 attack.
Hint:
Defeating Carpenter:
Make sure you have at least 10 rockets and 90 machine gun rounds before you
enter the battle. There is a rocket launcher at the bottom of the room
before you enter. Take out your rocket launcher and run in a circle,
avoiding Carpenter. When his chair is destroyed, take out your main gun, run
in an oval, and keep shooting. This will take a long time, but you will not
lose a life.
Hint:
Defeating Hadrian:
It is best to stay near Hadrian (the opponent with the talking arm). If you
move in the room while fighting him, two of the first level Bosses (with
many arms) and four of the enemies that hit you with their eyelashes (with 2
legs) will attack.
Hint:
Defeating gargoyles:
Do a running attack towards a gargoyle with your melee weapon (press the Left
Analog-stick + Right Analog-stick in the direction you want to
move and pull the trigger), and keep pulling the trigger as fast as
possible. Your hunter keeps attacking and you will not get hit.
To defeat gargoyles easily,
select your melee weapon and attack the its right side. Because you are
standing to the side of its body, it will attack you with its tail. Since
this attack swings the tail,-block 90 degrees counter-clockwise and you will
be out of its path. The gargoyle will end its turn facing you, so you will
have to move to its side again. If done correctly, you will avoid all
damage.
Hint:
Defeating vampires:
Use Judge. His crossbow kills them in one shot. Note: This refers to the
white ladies that have machine guns and can move very fast, and not the Boss
to the mansion.
Hint:
Defeating the werewolf:
On the levels after Arkady when the blue wolves chase you, do not waste any
ammunition or conviction on them. Save it up for the werewolf, and use
special weapons or conviction on him. You will need all the items you can
get for the last Boss, especially if you do not have a lot of lives or are
Martyr or Defender.
Hint:
Defeating zombies:
In most levels, there are many fences. If you do not have many lives, or
just want to save the ones you have, simply shoot the zombies through the
fence. When your are done, go in the fenced area and wait for more zombies
to appear. When they do, exit the fenced area and continue shooting. Note:
Avengers unlimited gun and the shotgun will shoot through, but the other
hunters may not.
Hint:
Defeating the Mansion Boss:
To defeat the Boss with Judge, use WordOfPower. When Judge's conviction
disappears, go up close with the sword and slash. The Boss will kill you,
but you will return with more conviction. Then, use WordOfPower and repeat.
To defeat the Boss with Judge and Defender, use the same as with just Judge,
but have Defender get all the special weapons on the level. While Judge does
his attacks, have Defender stay back and shoot.
When fighting the Mansion Boss,
keep yourself directly behind him and kill him using any weapon. He cannot
hurt you from that position unless he turns around and faces you. The key is
to face his back.
The easiest and fastest to kill
the Mansion Boss is with a chainsaw. Get behind him as much as possible and
use the chainsaw completely to kill him quickly.
Hint:
Defeating Nathaniel: When you encounter Nathaniel (the Wolf Boss), use a shotgun.
Within four shotsm he should run away. It may take the Marty a few more.
After you get rid of him, just run into the next room.
Hint:
Defeating the School Yard Boss:
Stand in the trash can. You can kill all the zombies at the beginning, then
when he appears, just run back to the trash can and kill everything that
comes at you. Watch the boss for his ground attacks and jump up to avoid
them. If he starts to hit you, jump out, run around, then go back to the
trash can. When you jump out you can always run to the Glyph and heal before
returning.
Hint:
Defeating the Teddy Bear Boss: Either wait until he dives before slice him with your knife/ax,
or wait until he tries his puke attack and hit him from behind. This may
take a while, but you should not lose a life when fighting this Boss. There
is a Health Glyph in the lower left corner. Do not kill the blue flying
enemies, as they just respawn as soon as they die.
Enable the "All
weapons" code and get a flamethrower. Use the flamethrower, stand in
front of it, and burn it.
Play at least with two players,
with one being Martyr. First, destroy all the benches for easier movement.
Have Martyr get the bear's attention then run around in a circle. You are
faster than the bear and he will chase you, but will not be able to hit.
While he is chasing you, have your partner unload on him. When he gets down
to low health, he might try to puke on you. Just get his attention again and
repeat. If you run fast enough, you might be able to chase him, and hit him
from behind.
As any character, you need to
master using the Left Analog-stick and Right Analog-stick
simultaneously to run backwards and fire your weapon at the same time. Run
in circles around the room, picking up shotguns and machine guns. Picked up
shotguns seem to do the most damage. Continue running backwards and firing
the weapons you have picked up. Disregard the blue ghosts. As long as you
are running, they cannot hit you. Using this technique, you can defeat the
Teddy Bear without losing any lives or having to use the glyphs, relatively
quickly.
The easiest and fastest way to
kill the Teddy Bear is to have at least two people. Have one person go in
front of him, with another person behind him. Both should use melee attacks
on him. The person in front may get hurt with puking, however if they stand
as close up against the bear as possible, the puke should go directly over
their head. Another way to kill him is to continuously run around inside the
church in a circular motion, then run backwards while shooting. It is also
good to take out the blue ghost enemies; after killing each of them once or
twice, they will not return. Martyr and Defender are recommended for this
Boss; they are fast and can easily outrun him. However, Avenger's infinite
shotgun is also strong and therefore very effective.
Hint:
Defeating the man with the knives in his hands: To defeat him, you must destroy the chair at the top of the room.
First, get the rocket launcher and flame thrower found during the level.
When fighting him, run in circles so he cannot get you (Martyr recommended)
while shooting the chair with the launcher. When you run out of rockets, use
the flame thrower. Note: The chair will shoot out blasts of
"energy" unexpectedly. Burn the chair from the sides. With the
chair out of the way, run in circles while shooting him. If you run out of
rockets and gas for the flame thrower restart the game, as the other guns do
almost nothing to the chair.
Hint:
Defeating the last Boss: As any character, grab the machine gun at the lower left of the
screen. Use any weapon to hurt the Boss. When he goes to recharge, run to
the big window in the room and unload your Uzi, Shotgun, Chainsaw, or other
weapon into it until it breaks open and the Boss dies. You can pretty much
ignore him when he returns from getting charged, since you will be standing
on a Health Glyph while destroying the window. Vampire and sunlight equals
death.
When you get to the last Boss,
do not free the three locked up innocents unless you have low remaining
lives. Freeing them will make the Boss have two more images of himself,
creating three Bosses, but only one will be real.
When playing in multi-player
mode, have player one destroy the window while the rest of the players harm
the Boss.
Hint:
Defeat the enemy with knives in his hands: Load up your rocket launcher before you go in the electric chair
room. Run to the middle of the room, avoiding him. Run around in circles
with the Launcher pointed at the chair. Keep shooting it while you run in
circles. Make your circles just big enough to avoid him and do not
accidentally shoot him at point blank range or you will lose a life. Change
your direction when he changes his. The chair should explode after awhile.
You can then just shoot him at your leisure or slice him up a bit before
regenerating your health. You should be able to kill him without losing a
life.
Hint:
Freeze your enemies: If you are running or walking around and notice a Zombie or tree
whip spawning (coming to life), get there fast enough and stand on top of
the place that it is appearing from. The enemy will be frozen and unable to
hurt you. Be careful, as many times you may get stuck with the enemy and be
unable to fight. If this does happen, take out your melee weapon and hack
away until you are free. Note: This does not work with small enemies (dogs,
rats, alligators and skitters).
Hint:
Killing enemies through fences: Use the following trick to kill enemies without taking damage.
When in a level with fences, such as at the Prisons, stand behind one with
your unlimited long-range weapon and fire through. If done correctly, you
should be able to kill anything you see through the fence. You can also walk
through a fence. Once on the other side, wait until zombies or other enemy
appears, then and run back through the door. Fire at them until they are
dead.
Hint:
Protecting Kaylie: In order to protect Kaylie and get her to the church alive, it is
easier the more people that you have. The more people there are, the more of
you there are to watch her and fight off enemies. Also, when fighting the
gargoyles with Kaylie, have at least two people playing. Have one or two
people stay with Kaylie and protect her from little monsters such as
zombies. Have the others kill the gargoyles with melee attacks, which at the
same time distracts them, and they will not attempt to hurt Kaylie.
Hint:
Catacombs: Hidden power-up: When you enter the room with the two sisters/innocents, defeat
all the enemies but do not leave. Search the walls in that room and find the
spot where the wall is cracked. Attack it with any weapon. It will
eventually collapse. Inside are some special weapons (shotgun, etc.) and the
permanent strength power-up.
Hint:
Catacombs: Cracks: In the catacombs, if you do not see the crack, slice at the wall
that points north from the screen. It should give off white puffs when
attacking the correct wall.
Hint:
Main Yard 1: Hidden power-up: You will start by some basketball courts and brick buildings.
Stay to the far right of the screen and continue moving forward until you
see a metal guardrail that fell down. Walk up that and follow the path until
you have to turn left. As soon as you can, turn right to find a permanent
accuracy power-up glyph. Press Action over it and your accuracy will
increase. A flamethrower is also near the glyph .
Hint:
School Yard: Easy completion: Make sure you can spend an hour or so killing this monster alone.
It is better to have Defender or Martyr because they are faster. When you
first appear, kill all the zombies that are near you. Explore the street,
picking up the machine gun and killing zombies on the way. Follow the fence
all the way up to the opening. Be careful as there are many zombies and a
few gargoyles. Once you have killed most of the zombies, go into the school
area. Stay away from the gate so you do not activate the Boss too early.
Explore a little bit, killing all of the zombies, getting health, and
picking up the machine gun in the little playground near the exit. After you
are sure everyone is dead, follow the fence (on the inside) until the
intermission is activated and you have to kill the Boss. There are two ways
to kill him: running around the fence shooting him while he is stuck; or the
complicated but more reliable way as follows. Once the Boss is following
you, go into the school yard and up to the tree. Stay next to the fence and
wait until he is near. Jump over any ground attacks and kill the skitters.
Once he is near the tree, quickly run away and go on to the other side of
the fence (you should be on the street). Shoot him with everything you have,
minding the skitters. It will take awhile but you will not use any lives.
Hint:
Hidden power-up: In the level with the path to the mansion (with the dogs and
fountain), walk along the left side wall. You will find a small area behind
some trees with some weapons and a permanent power-up. Watch out for the
dogs in there
Hint:
Avenger: 360 degree attack special: When there are many enemies in your area, use the cleave ax
special. Go in the middle of them, hold R, then release. This will
take out many of the nearby enemies.
Hint:
Avenger: Back on fire: To get Avenger's back on fire, simply select his melee weapon,
activate his Cleave Edge, then select any other weapon in your arsenal.
Avenger will put the "burning" axe onto his back, giving the
impression that it is on fire. Note: The higher the level Avenger's Cleave
Edge is, the longer his back will be on fire.
Hint:
Martyr: Temporary invincibility: Martyr's "Retribution" Edge returns a certain amount of
damage to any enemy that hits her (depending on its level). However, Martyr
herself will take no damage while Retribution is active, even from Bosses or
their abilities. Note: Retribution will drain health as well as conviction.
Use this on annoying Bosses such as the Teddy Bear (no more vomiting deaths)
and the Vampire Boss.
Hint:
Recommended character: Choose Judge when playing the game in single player mode. Note:
The flaming crossbow arrows visible in the FMV sequence are not actually in
the game.
Hint:
Avoid damage: An easy way to avoid taking damage from zombies and other
creatures is to stand on top of an object (for example, cars or trucks),
staying away from the edges, and blasting away. If the object can explode,
blow it up before you get on or it may explode while you are on top.
Hint:
Demand Edge: Activating the Demand Edge harms your hunter -- use it sparingly.
Hint:
Healing Edge: Defender's Healing Edge can heal all Hunters near her when it
gets to level 2 and 3. Note: On level 2, hunters must come close to
Defender. On level 3, Hunters can be a few steps away.
Hint:
Rare weapons: Successfully complete the game within three hours for different
pick-ups during game play.
Hint:
Easier game setting: Play the game in single player mode and everything will become a
lot easier. If you play in multi-player mode, the game gets progressively
more difficult with each additional player.
Glitch:
Always access Glyph: If two players access a permanent increase Glyph (either Strength
or Accuracy) at the same time, the Glyph will never become inaccessible. It
is similar to the regular Glyphs, but does not "turn off" after
the fourth use. You can continue to charge up a stat as much as desired.
After the bar is full in the stats page of your character (for Strength or
Accuracy), a small red bar will appear to the right of the stat. If you
continue to access the permanent increase Glyph, the bar will slowly extend
all the way across the stats page (behind the weapon/inventory screen). With
a fully maxed out stat, enemies usually fall with one hit. Strength affects
short ranged attacks; Accuracy affects long ones. The permanent Glyph cheat
works because the game is programmed to disable the Glyph with after one
use. Having two people access it at once means the Glyph is never used just
once, meaning it will always be available. The regular Glyphs (Health and
Conviction) are programmed to disable on the fourth use. Thus, if you use a
Health Glyph three times, then have two people use it at the same time, it
will be used overall five times and it will always be available, just like
the permanent ones. This may make some of the Boss fights a little easier.
Glitch:
Invincible zombies: Play the game with two people with one being the Avenger and one
being the Judge. After you both gain your second Edge (Smite and Burden)
find a location with a lot of zombies. Have the Avenger use Smite and
immediately after that, have the Judge use Burden to freeze the already dead
zombies. When they unfreeze the zombies will be invincible.
