Sort of useless. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tokyo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Final Rank: Excellent Fun Score: Excellent Size Rank: Average Demolition: Excellent Battle Rank: Excellent Alien Respawn: Far corner away from the Pagoda Army Respawn: Near the Pagoda Hidden Areas: Near the alien respawn point, you can blow open a building and then proceed to drive through it. Useful shortcut sometimes. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Washington DC ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Final Rank: Average Fun Score: Excellent Size Rank: Poor Demolition: Excellent Battle Rank: Average Alien Respawn: Inside their taken over area Army Respawn: Near the gated areas Hidden Areas: If you are looking at the Lincoln Memorial, go right. You can destroy one of the buildings for a useful shortcut that bends into an "L" slightly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Alien Cave ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Final Rank: Average Fun Score: Average Size Rank: Average Demolition: Poor Battle Rank: Excellent FORT Location: The big center area FORT Defense: Alien Alien Respawn: Behind a mountain.. Army Respawn: ..Behind a different mountain Hidden Areas: If you fall off of the cliff into the black abyss, you will be fully revived and no penalty will be counted against you! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Area 51 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Final Rank: Average Fun Score: Average Size Rank: Excellent Demolition: Poor Battle Rank: Average FORT Location: The big center building FORT Defense: Army Alien Respawn: Near the moutains Army Respawn: In the open sands Hidden Areas: None. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Siberia ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Final Rank: Poor Fun Score: Poor Size Rank: Average Demolition: Average Battle Rank: Poor Alien Respawn: Far away from the frozen lake Army Respawn: Closer to the frozen lake Hidden Areas: Throughout the course, you can blow open walls.

Vehicles > \\===========================================================================// ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ A comprehensive list and data chart of all vehicles in AFO. Your ride is an important choice. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hov Craft ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Final Rank: Excellent Fun Score: Excellent Armor Rank: Poor Speed Rank: Excellent Strong Points: Very fast and mobile, you can swerve around most enemies before they get a chance to hit you. Weak Points: It offers little protection, it's very easily killed in two or three hits. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2L Walker ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Final Rank: Average Fun Score: Average Armor Rank: Average Speed Rank: Average Strong Points: It's got balance, which is sometimes useful for straight-on attacks. It has more uses than the Hov Craft. Weak Points: It's got balance and nothing particularly great. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SP Walker ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Final Rank: Poor Fun Score: Poor Armor Rank: Excellent Speed Rank: Poor Strong Points: Lots of armor, this thing can take the most hits of any alien. Weak Points: Extremely slow, the Hov Craft and 2L Walker are much better choices. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MK2 Merkava ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Final Rank: Average Fun Score: Average Armor Rank: Poor Speed Rank: Excellent Strong Points: It's the fastest an Army vehicle can get. Weak Points: Can't outrun a Hov Craft; easy to destroy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- M1A2 Abrams ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Final Rank: Poor Fun Score: Average Armor Rank: Average Speed Rank: Average Strong Points: It offers a little bit of everything. Weak Points: Tanks can't have that kind of armor, they need stronger armor to make up for their lack of speed. The MK2 Merkava is a much wiser choice, as is the M109-A2. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- M109-A2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Final Rank: Average Fun Score: Excellent Armor Rank: Excellent Speed Rank: Poor Strong Points: Lots of armor. Weak Points: It's slow and can get driven around by most Aliens. _____________________________________________________________________________ //===========================================================================\\ < 03.

Strategies > \\===========================================================================// ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Some good strategies. If you need any more or have any to submit, please e-mail me. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Alien Hov Craft in Tokyo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the real arena for Hov Crafts to shine. When you respawn, or start out even, head right for the Army's respawn zone, which is located near the big Pagoda. Once inside, your job is to kill as many tanks as possible without letting them out. This sounds fairly difficult, but in reality it isn't. The Hov Craft can maneuver around the newly respawned tanks and really do some major damage. The key to this is getting "combos". You must get a kill every few seconds, followed by another kill, so you can get enough med kits and possibly subweapons. To start, drive behind the respawning tank. Blast it a few times, driving it into the wall. Drive yourself at it, continuing your fire. He'll deal some damage to you, but you will get his health. Spin around, finish off the tanks in the other corner (by now your allies should have also infiltrated the respawn zone). You can keep going between respawned tanks and already weakened tanks for lots of health. As long as you do not let the tanks leave the area, you should rack in lots of kills. _____________________________________________________________________________ //===========================================================================\\ < 06. Cheat Codes > \\===========================================================================// ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ There is only one known cheat so far, and I have no friggin idea on how we came to figure it out. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Foggy Cheat Mode ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When online, make a game named FOGFOGFOG and then enter it. Your game will be all foggy, which is very cool. Sometimes you cannot make a FOGFOGFOG game, however, because someone else is trying the code. Only one game named FOGFOGFOG may exist at a time. You can either wait for that game to end, or you can join it. _____________________________________________________________________________ //===========================================================================\\ < 07. Common Problems > \\===========================================================================// ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Some good troubleshooting. Some help sections may need to be worked on, I will get to that as soon as possible. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Saving Issues ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The game automatically saves the game for you after each session of battle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Voice Chat Issues ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you cannot hear the other people talking to you, try turning down the other sound options (in the Options Menu) to the farthest left. Turn the Voice Chat option to the right, all the way. That usually fixes the problem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Controller Issues ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Your default controller is listed below. I recomend switching "B" to "X" and vice versa, because "X" seems to be a more natural shooting button. Just a recomendation. Start Button: Bring up the Options Menu, giving you the option to quit if you would like. It doesn't pause you online! Analog Stick: Use for movement. It works well in the 3-D format of the game. Combined with L or R, you can strafe left or right, respectively. A Button: Shoots your main vehichle's weapon. You can't hold it down for extremely fast shooting. B Button: Your extra weapon button, press it to fire your subweapon. Some weapons fire faster than others. X Button: Change the camera angle from close to far, far to close. Y Button: Press it once to chat with your allies (useful to set up tactics or strategies). Press it twice to tell the entire game what you want to say. Good for trash talk! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How To Get Online ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Many people will have one hell of a time getting online with Alien Front Online. There are lots of steps to take before you can get online. Before you even attempt, check this checklist. Checklist of Things You Must Have: Modem --basically, all DreamCasts come with one built in. If you bought your DreamCast from a real store (not FuncoLand, your neighbor, or Vinny Two Shoes), this will be no problem. Don't attempt to toy with your modem-- EVER! All Proper Phone Accessories --lines, jacks, and everything hooked up correctly. Alien Front Online Disc --duh. NFL2k1 or Sega WebBrowser --I prefer NFL2k1, it's much easier. The WebBrower is terrible, but it will get the job done. Enter your ISP information (user name, password, phone number, etc). If you can't get it working, e-mail me. --REMEMBER: You can't use the BroadBand Adaptor.. at all. Period. --REMEMBER: You can get long distance bills if you dial long distance. --REMEMBER: No one endorses what is said or done online. There is no filter for bad language. A working, DreamCast ISP (preferably SegaNet) --AOL doesn't work (it's not a real ISP, anyway). --BroadBand Adaptors don't work. --Most of the free DreamCast Internet Sites don't work. If you're using Bluelight, the MSN Uni, or anything else that isn't yours or is FREE in any way.. may not work. --SegaNet and Microsoft Network (MSN) are good bets. Patience --Seriously, it can take a long time to set this up. --The servers are horrible.. you WILL get disconnected .. ALOT! Once you've got all that, put the ISP information into the WebBrowser or NFL2k1. Put AFO back in the DreamCast, choose Online. Dial the number, and you are off to AFO Online Land, the place of dreams and fairy tales.... Once Online, you must Agree to the terms they flash. Then, choose what lobby you want to be in. If you're in the Army Lobby, you will be an Army player.. and opposite is also true. Now that you're in the Lobby you want to be in, pick an open game. It will look something like this: ............................ Blues Brothers 5/6 DM Hell is L0se 2/4 DM IGN OWNZ YOU 8/8 FORT USA ! 1/2 DM Blame Canada 6/6 DM Spy vs Spy 1/4 FLAG All Your Fort 7/8 FORT www.timefall.com 8/8 DM Snoopy 4/5 DM ............................ Basically, the team name (Blues Brothers, Hell is L0se, etc) is first. This really doesn't matter at all. Next, comes the amount of players. X/Y, where X is the number of people playing, and Y is the maximum number of people allowed in. The more people, the more intense the battles (usually more fun). The games with less people tend to not freeze as much and are much slower, and tend to be ALOT more boring. The final word is the type of game the match is. DM is an abreviation for Death Match (a free for all). FORT stands for FORTRESS, a game where one team guards their home base. FLAG is a game of capture-the-flag.. you know how it works. There are more games, you can choose the DOWN ARROW to choose them. Other choices include Creating Your Own Game and Randomly Joing A Game. It's very straight forward to use those options. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- More Solutions Coming Soon ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _____________________________________________________________________________ //===========================================================================\\ < 08.

Tips and Tricks Themed To "The Offspring" > \\===========================================================================// ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Good tips, chessily themed, too. Horay. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Come Out and Play ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The worse thing you can do in AFO is hide the entire match, and wait for enemies to find you, and then, humorously, kill you. Waiting for enemies to attack is very useless, because you won't ever get more than ten kills! If you want to play cowardly and slowly, you will lose interest in the game very easily, and very quickly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Staring At The Sun ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sometimes you just have to take damage to deal damage. If you're trying to attack two enemies, you'll have to stare at the blazing shots of the enemies while concentrating on ONE ENEMY. After (if) you kill one, you'll get the health and then be able to take the other enemy on in a one-on-on. Never try to take two tanks down by shooting at them both. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All I Want ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All you want is a quick list of the areas, vehicles, and subweapons? I can get you that. Type Vehicle Armor KPH Tons ....................................................

Tokyo Very fun battle area loaded with demoliton. Washinton DC Small, but loaded with buildings to destroy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pretty Fly (For A White Guy) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How good are you online?

Mission Tactics Walk-Throughs > \\===========================================================================// ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ This is a guide to the tactics missions. It is not complete, if you want to help e-mail me. These are the Alien missions currently. --------- Mission 1 --------- Start by picking the fastest Alien vehicle, the Hov Craft. It will be very for newbies who are just getting into the game, and it will make things quite simple for 30-starred players. Red dots on the radar alert you to whether or not there are any targets in the current area. You'll need to learn to use the radar sometime, might as well be now. Speed ahead, hit the first set of targets. Keep going, you'll see some blue liquids.. hit those targets, too. Continue around, hit the targets on the blue liquids, and then keep going forward. You'll have 26 targets destroyed if you followed this correctly. More targets are ahead, follow them. You'll destroy a handful of targets at and around the mountain, bringing your total to 41. Look ahead, you'll see more.. you'll have 50 scored after you run these over. Find a light source ahead, and turn into the mountains, collecting the final few targets. You're done Mission 1! --------- Mission 2 --------- In this mission, you'll have three minutes to eliminate all of the targets. Again, pick the Hov Craft.. Drive forward, shoot the targets. It's pretty simple. You'll be near the blue liquid, so be sure to take out any targets you see next. The vision is slightly blurred, but it's not bad. Head forward, taking out all of the targets. Next, look for an opening in the mountains. Drive in, do your business, drive out. There's some targets far away, drive up and remove them. You'll find some more targets in the openings from the mountains. Just keep an eye on the radar and you'll easily complete this. There's no way you need three minutes, especially when using the Hov Craft. _____________________________________________________________________________ //===========================================================================\\ < > \\===========================================================================// ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Copyright 2002 Anthony Charles Ambrose (ACA) [email protected] All rights reserved This document was created and maintained by ACA, its author.
