Hints and Tips

Hi and welcome to my hints and tips page.In this page,I will give all the hints and tips for some games that I own such as Commandos,Seven Kingdoms,Hexen 2,Syndicate Wars and so on.I don't like to give cheats for these games because I really hate playing cheats.Want to know why?'coz if you play cheats,then you will not feel the excitement of the game and it will be a waste if you buy the game.I know there are some people who like to play cheats and I can't never argue with that.Of course,if you HAD to or you find the game to difficult to play,then maybe you should do the cheat stuff.Ok,here goes:

Preview:-This game is really a brain teaser. Why?'coz the game is like a chess. One false move and you're history! This game is about 6 different abilities of commandos who's been ordered to make the Hitler's dream a nightmare. This 6 brave commandos will approach the enemy from behind.

Hints and tips

1)Never,ever shoot an enemy even if the enemy if outnumbered by you. This is because the shot can be heard nearby and if the mission has a garrison (a building that has a flag waving), you're dead! But if you are sure enough that the shot made by you can't be heard, then go ahead.

2)Patience is the name of the game. Before you make your move, make sure that enemy's patrolling vehicle or guards is away from you. If you don't, all the lovely skulls will appear on top left of your screen.

3)The game doesn't count on how many you killed the enemy's guards, buildings and vehicles. Instead,it counts on how LONG you finish a mission and the damage sustained by your commandos.

4)Always make sure you check all enemy's field of view. If you do this, you can strategize your move and put it into action efficiently.

5)Stuck?Don't know how to make another move? Desperate for a walkthrough? Here's a web site that can help you. It's called Adrenaline Vault: Commandos-Behind Enemy Lines. Hope it helps.

Preview:-This game is really different from other strategy games. All the peasants and soldier's have their own LOYALTY and FEELINGS (I think). If their loyalty drops, they can betray you and turn towards other kingdoms. So,you have to be careful about handling things like economy, military and stuff like that.

Hints and Tips

1)Make sure that if you want to attack other kingdoms, you'll HAVE TO DECLARE WAR against the kingdom you want to attack. Otherwise, your people's loyalty will soon dropped and that means, thumbs down!

2)Research a weapon ASAP. You will a good chance of defeating other kingdoms by doing this way. Build many tower of science and a lot of science people in it for making the research quite faster.

3)Remove all Fryhtans if you can. By this way, you will gain more gold and a scroll of power. Also, it will increase your reputation.

4)Always remember that if you want to sell your goods to a neutral village, make sure the villager's resistance is less than 40.Otherwise,it would be a waste because the villagers won't buy ANYTHING from you. To decrease the resistance, build a fort nearby and send in your troops to the fort. Note:-The decreasement of resistance will affect on the same nationality.

5)If I were you, I would hire a mercenary or 2 to do the bidding like mining, manufacturing and stuffs like that although it will cost you a lot of gold. But it is important that the FOOD will increase if villagers don't do any working.

Preview:-Eidolon is the last Serpent Rider after you killed D'Sparil in Heretic and Korax in Hexen.I've won this game by using a Paladin and a Necromancer.Eidolon is a goat-like creature.He's tough and when he turns into a GIANT,he will squash you like a bug unless if you quick on your foot.

Hints and Tips

1)I recommend using Crusader, Assasin and Necromancer. Why? Because they can attack from long distance. By that way, you need not to worry about being smacked in close range.

2)When killing the were-jaguar, you must forward, attack and then back off. Repeating this will make the were-jaguar dies. Also, if you always duck down and always pressing the attack button, the were-jaguar won't even have a chance to attack you (I hope).

3)Now,about the walkthrough of the game, you can obtain it at Yahoo!, just find it yourself.

4)I know, a few people complained about how difficult the puzzles are (especially in world of Thysis, where you must get 2 crowns of Egypt). I also had the same thing happening to me. So, I surfed the Internet and find the walkthrough. That's all.

5)Remember,the difficulties level you choose WILL AFFECT the puzzles in Hexen 2.

Preview-It has been 95 years since The Eurocorp Syndicate ruled the earth. But, unfortunately, this time a new group called The Church of the new Epoch led by The Nine is trying oppose the Syndicate by creating a virus that can cause a malfunction in a CHIP.

Hints and Tips

1)First of all, don't attack the enemy (zealots, punks, etc.) first before the police is out of of the away. You can either eliminate the police first of you can just attack the enemy stealthy without the police knowing it.

2)When robbing a bank, make sure you ready for a fire fight with the police. Also, if the level has a police station, BLOW IT UP first. Note-Even if you blowed up the police station, the police will still come out from the debris of the police station. I don't know why, it's kinda odd you know.

3)Here's my advice on making a combination of your team.

Agent Minigun Launcher* PulseLaser LRrifle Medikit/Auto Persuadertron HighExplosive  
1** Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes No No
2@ Yes No Yes Yes Yes No Yes  
3** Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes No No  
4# Yes No Yes Yes Yes Yes No  

*Optional-if you can afford to research it or other powerful weapons.

**Team leader-I recommend you make agent 1 and 3 as team leaders.(1 is leader for agent 2 and 3 is leader for agent 4)

@Sapper-Now, I suggest agent 2 as an explosive expert or sapper.

#Persuader-Agent 4 will make a best persuader in your team because he is the last member in your team.

4)Always stick together.4 agents are even the odds against a number of enemies.

5)Research as fast as you can. Of course, if you afford to do it. The first thing you do after you got a lot of money, research LR rifle first. This weapon really pack a punch from a distance.

6)Remember,after killing an enemy, be sure to check his body by scanning around his body with your mouse. Who, knows, there might be a high explosive waiting to explode with your team. These kind of enemy like to make your team join him in hell.

Preview-This game is a first person perspective game shooter (I LIKE first person shooter like Quake, Doom, etc.). The main plot :a gorgeous CEO named Elexis Sinclair want to spread her unholy war towards the Hardcorp Security. You are Colonel John R.Blade, head of Hardcorp. Together with your 'cyber-dork' partner, JC, you got to unlock the true purpose of Elexis's evil plans and put an end to it. Warning: contains obscenity scenes. Rated Mature. Also: download the SiN patch! The game itself have many problems like page fault error (happened to me) or the game just freezes.19 MB sounds a bit large but it's worthy enough to do so.

Hints and Tips

1.This game is very different from other first person shooter games. Using mouse to aim and shoot is very vital. If you use keyboard, your aim will not be accurate enough. Enemies' AI is very tough. So, go and practice using your mouse!

2.The main weakness point is HEAD. Shoot it and the enemy will be easily defeated. Also, if you aim at the enemy's hand holding a gun, the gun may be released from him.

3.Becareful of the snipers. Their shot can really hurt a lot! So, try to look around and spot any snipers. Remember one though: snipers can see you from a far, so be careful!

4.After killing a bad guy, try to search his corpse for any items like medic or bullet clips. Press the 'use' button when you walk over a corpse and various items will appear.

5.Every actions you make will change the outcome of the game. Example: if you kill a worker kneeling on the floor (surrendering, I think) in the biomech factory, you won't get the password for proceeding to the Missile Silo level. So, think first before you shoot!

6.If you have any questions regarding any SiN problems (game freezes, soundcard not working, etc.) you can got this site: SiN Hardcorps News You can ask your questions to the message board and wait for a few days. Then maybe someone will answer your questions.

7.Pay attention to the mission objectives. It have 2:primary and secondary. Secondary objectives sometimes can change the outcome of the game. So, try to fulfill the secondary objectives.

8.Sometimes those incoming transmissions from JC can be annoying. But, you better listen to them. Sometimes, JC can help you although his 'mouth' is full of those bad words like "Blade, you one bad-ass mother!" Wow, sounds nasty, isn't?

Preview-Sorry about the picture though. The picture is not in a good shape. But let us carry on with the preview. This game is re-designed after the classic Dune 2.The graphics and game play are excellent. Just similar to Red Alert. But all the units are much smaller. The gameplay: when you play about the half way to finish a house (yes, there are 3 houses to choose from: the noble Atreides, the insidious Ordos and the evil Harkonnen), the game started to get more tougher. Good luck!

Hints and Tips

1.In my opinion, building 9 combat tanks will make you unstoppable. More than 9 is better,if you can afford it. Combat tanks are excellent for destroying other armored vehicles and crushing those puny infantries.

2.When playing against computer, always attack his refinery FIRST! By this way, the computer won't have any credits to build his forces. Don't afraid of your tank getting killed, let them be. Just KAMIKAZE! or just go for a suicide mission but it is worth it.

3.Upgrade everything as fast as you can. You will have all the devastating units in no time! But watch your money though. Be careful not to upgrade something you cannot afford or something that is not useful to you.

4.Make backup units. This is important when the your first squads have been countermeasured and then the computer starts to storm your base. It happened to me once though. Remember, backup units are important!

5.If you always lose the game, don't be sad. Just surf the internet and download the Dune 2000 Trainer. This program will allow you to change the cost of a unit, add more spice/money and change the specifications of a units.

I will update later on more hints and tips.
