This is my FAQ. Which means you cannot sell it, copy it, or put it on
your webpage. Of course, if you ask me nicely and credit this with my
name you can put it on your webpage, but ask first! I spent my own time
writing this, and it wasn't made for people to steal and say they wrote
it. If you lie and steal, the world will crush you eventually. Enough
with the threats, are we friends again? :-) Then go ahead and read this!

*********************************
This is a FAQ that will help guide you through Global Operations. I
decided to write this FAQ because I just love this game. The only thing
I hate is the lag that I get, but that's my own problem. Anyways, In
this FAQ you'll get tips on how to beat each of the Missions. You can
also find me on the servers named Master Tony. You may also contact me
via e-mail or AIM. I've listed these at the top of this FAQ. Also,

1.3 Jobs/Classes
*********************************
These are the Jobs that can be played in Global Operations. Each class
is unique in its on way. You can see that Heavy Gunner, and Commando are
great jobs. They have almost no disadvantages at all. You must also
factor in the headshots. Most of the time you'll buy fully upgraded
weapons, armor, and thermo goggles. All of a sudden you're hit in the
head and lose all of your stuff. Sometimes playing as a Commando or
Heavy Gunner may get you pissed off more easily if you die so armor
isn't everything!

Recon
==============
The Recon is fast, light, close range, offensive force equipped with the
Life Signs Detector(LSD). The LSD has the ability to detect enemies
within a variable range. Players within close proximity to the Recon
share this information.
LSD- The LSD has 3 main functions which are Navigation, Broad Scan, and
Narrow Scan. Navigation is the least used and it allows teammates and
waypoints to be seen. The Broad Scan allows a 180-degree scanning
radius. This allows you to see enemies who are fairly close to you.
Narrow Scan will be commonly used. It allows 90-degree scanning radius.
Allowing you to see enemies extremely far away. The LSD's battery
depletes in Broad and Narrow Scan mode and it regenerates in Navigation
Mode. Therefore, keeping your battery at 1/2 power is always a good idea
incase you get too close to an enemy and want to know his next move.
Advantages- Fast, LSD, cheap weapons
Disadvantages- Weak armor, weak weapons, low income, can carry only 1
heavy weapon
Primary Weapon-------------------------Sub-Machine Gun
Secondary Weapon-----------------------None
Sidearm--------------------------------Handgun
Grenade Slots--------------------------2 Slots
Special Items--------------------------Life Signs Detector
Speed----------------------------------Fast to Medium
Armor----------------------------------Light or Medium
==============
Commando
==============
The Commando is a mid-range offensive force. Because he can be equipped
with powerful assault rifles, a secondary weapon, and the LAW disposable
rocket launcher, he is the most versatile job or class available. The
LAW functions as a Grenade Launcher type weapon and can be carried in
his Grenade Slots. He is the only person who can use the LAW. The
Demoman cannot use it.
Advantages- LAW, variety of guns, good armor, income is relatively high,
can carry 2 heavy weapons on pick-up
Disadvantages- Slow, can be expensive at times
Primary Weapon-------------------------Assault Rifle

Special Items--------------------------LAW (Must Be Purchased)
Speed----------------------------------Medium to Slow
Armor----------------------------------Medium or Heavy
==============
Heavy Gunner
==============
The Heavy Gunner is slow but packs a large punch. The Gunner's primary
weapon is the machine gun. These guns are good for close to mid-range
combat and can penetrate various materials. The Heavy Gunner is also
equipped with a secondary shotgun. This extra weapon gives the guner
more offensive options in battle.
Advantages- Machine guns, good armor, variety of weapons, highest
income, can carry 2 heavy weapons on pick-up
Disadvantages- Slow, expensive weapons
Primary Weapon-------------------------Machine Gun
Secondary Weapon-----------------------Shotgun
Sidearm--------------------------------Handgun
Grenade Slots--------------------------3 Slots
Special Items--------------------------None
Speed----------------------------------Medium to Slow
Armor----------------------------------Medium or Heavy
==============
*Intel. Officer
==============
The intelligence officer does not engage in actual combat, but rather
collects information from the team and provides combat strategies as the
mission unfolds. The intelligence officer is able to view the action
through a system of 4 selected monitors. The primary moniter is the
largest of the 4 views and displays full motion video. members of the
intelligence officer's team are viewable through his monitor system.
Enemy soldiers may also appear on the intelligence officer's screen if
they are in range of the recon's LSD.
Cameras- Any of the monitors can be used to view the game through
various cameras to which the intelligence officer has access. Each in-
game player is equipped with a small personal camera. The intelligence
officer only has access to his teammate's cameras and cannot get any
signal from the enemy team. In some missions, there may also be a system
of security cameras to which the intelligence officer has access. His
team must acquire control of these cameras in order for these cameras to
be of use. To acquire control of a camera press spacebar or if you
changed it the "Use" button.
Waypoints- The intelligence officer has the ability to place numbered
waypoints on the map. These waypoints are represented on the players'
compass, and can be used to regroup or to guide players to important
elements in the missions.
Advantages- Never dies, provides enemy location and strategy
Disadvantages- No cash acquired, never shoots a gun!
*Please note that Intelligence Officer can be played only in multiplayer
games. It is unavailable in single player. It is seen on the top right
of the character select screen. Displayed as a rectangular box and not a
human character. I would advise not to be an Intel Officer though. I was
playing once and someone tried to guide me and he ended saying things
like "NO! Not THAT way!" and "Oh GOOD job there!" IMHO, I think it's a
very boring job because you don't get to shoot people. The game's not
just about shooting, but you just have to shoot a gun ^_^
*********************************
1.4 Salary
*********************************
Every job needs a salary right? In Global Operations you get paid to do
various things. Whether it's killing someone or healing someone you will
get money. Every job or class receives money in their own unique way,
but each of them will receive these bonuses no matter what:
Eliminating an Enemy---------------------------------*Varies
Assisting in Eliminating an Enemy--------------------$250
Rescuing a Hostage-----------------------------------$750
Touching a Hostage-----------------------------------$150
Killing a Hostage(if on rescue team)-----------------Lose $900
Killing a Hostage(if on prevention team)-------------Lose $750
Winning a Level--------------------------------------$4000
Losing a Level---------------------------------------$3000
Staying Alive----------------------------------------$150/30 seconds
Bonus for consecutice level losses-------------------$250/per loss(max
is 3 bonuses)
*Eliminating an enemy is random. It depends on how much health the
player had before he died, where he could have been shot, what gun was
used, and kill/death ratio. Most of the time you won't even notice
yourself getting money because you'll be more concentrated on the game.
Letting your eyes drift off for a mere 5 seconds may result in death.
Trust me, I know =)
In addition to getting money for killing enemies. Each class/job has its
own unique way of earning cash. It wouldn't be fair if Medics didn't get
paid to heal the wounded and it wouldn't be fair if Recons receive no
money from sharing data. Here's a list of the bonuses included for each
of the jobs:
===============
Commando
===============
Initial Cash---------------------------------------$2300
Respawn Cash---------------------------------------$1150

Assist in Eliminating an Enemy---------------------$250
===============
VIP
===============
Eliminate an Enemy---------------------------------$200
Escaping From Capture------------------------------$500
I am not quite clear on why VIP will get money when he kills an enemy in
a multiplayer game. VIPs cannot buy guns or use money for anything. It's
possible that the money is spread throughout the team members that are
protecting him, but other than that I don't know why he gets money.

*********************************
2.0 Walkthrough
*********************************
Finally! Here it is! There are 2 campaigns. The only difference is that
in Campaign 2 you're on the other team's side. So you'll get the jobs
that are a bit harder. Also, there are 3 levels of difficulty to play on
which are: Easy, Normal, and Hard. I suggest starting on Normal. Why?
Easy is way too easy. If you're an experienced first person shooter you
should go to Normal. Something that really pisses me off when I play is
Frag Grenades. Your allys will throw them like crazy(Damn that Private
Kong! ^_^). Most of the time you'll find yourself dieing from your own
allies' hands and not your enemies hands. Your solution to this? I would
just kill your teammates if they have posession of a grenade. Plus, you
can pick up their gun. It's cruel and all, but you're the main player.
Don't expect your AIs to do much work. This is all you, so having a good
gun is much better with you rather than your AI partner. Here's a brief
description on how the difficulties actually are:
Easy Level- Your enemies will play as a take turn shooting. If 2 are
face to face one will shoot, and then they'll wait to be shot once. This
pattern repeats until one of them are dead. So it's like "Hey Nazi, you
shoot me once and wait. Then I'll shoot you once and then afterwards we
can have tea and crumpets!" Pretty sad huh? What's even sadder is that
the enemy will wait around 5-10 seconds if they see you and then start
to shoot you. I easily racked up $15000 by taking headshots. They just
sit there and give you 5 seconds to aim and take off their head. They
also have horrible accuracy and reflexes. I remember following them at
times for nearly 30 seconds. You can just run around their bodies and
they'll neevr hit you. Stand right up in their face and see how many
shots it takes to get hit. I bet it'll be 2 or 3. That means it takes
them around 30 seconds to make one hit off you. If I could I'd change
Easy and call it Blind Man's Level!
Normal Level- This level is what I recommend for players. You won't
learn how to do the shoot/hide technique on Easy. The enemies won't
really wait for you. Once they see you they may delay for a second or
two but they'll try to actually be aggressive. They will still throw
grenades at you on this level and even moreso. Basically to survive
you'll have to learn how to crouch over ledges and peak down towards
enemies. You need to learn how to peek behind a wall and hide back. You
basically want be unseen and play stealth so you can get the first hit.
I recommend using a Recon because you will know where the enemy is and
can Circle Around Back. Once you have a feel on how the AIs play you can
go without a Recon.
Hard Level- This is very hard and requires a lot of skill. Enemies will
almost always know when to expect you. It is hard to play this without
being a Recon because you can easily die. Especially in dark areas
because they'll see you clearly and you may have a hard time finding
them. This is a no hold back level. Your shots have to count and your
brain needs to be used. You have to work on moving on the battlefield
and shooting at the same time. No more stand in one place, aim, and
shoot. You always want to be moving. Standing still will leave you dead
if you're not careful. A good way to survive is to let your teammates do
a little fighting with the enemy. After they fight they'll most likely
be dead, but weapons are scattered all over the battlefield. Just go
pick one up instead of buying one. This way you can start with the
strongest armor possible and possibly Thermo Goggles. Also, If you play
Heavy Gunner or Commando just upgrade your armor and take a Thermo Gog
with you. When the gaem start just knife your Commando or Heavy Gunner
AI because they'll have a pretty decent weapon. I think you lose around
$900 for killing an AI but you've just spent all your money on armor and
thermo gogs, so you get a free gun ^_^

Mission Brief: A lowdown on what is happening in the mission
This next paragraph is my guidance for completion
*These stars are big tips that will help you win if you don't want to
read the paragraph.
===================
Mission 1 - Mexico
===================
Objectives
1) Blow up Targets
2) Plant the Bomb
Difficulty: Very Easy
Recommended Job: Demoman
Mission Brief: In answer to growing pressure from the US Drug
Enforcement Agency, Mexican authorities have sharply stepped up their
efforts to limit the northward flow of narcotics. An anonymous tip
submitted to the local police has resulted in the deployment of the
Mexican Army, armed with a large C4 explosive device, to the suspected
base of operations for the Gallardo Cartel, where a drug shipment is
being loaded onto trucks for crossing the border.
This mission is your first and quite simple mission. This will give you
a taste of Global Operations. Allow your AI teammates to go ahead of
you. If you hear gunfire, then you know that you'll expect enemies. The
key is to use your AIs as decoys to detect where enemies are. Allow them
to go ahead and you follow. All you have to do is plant a C4 explosive
near or on the truck and guard it until it blows up. To do this follow
your teammates until you are right in front of that palace type
building. On the left you'll see that the enemies come from that
direction. The truck is over there. If you get lost just kill all your
enemies and follow your AIs, because they will always know where to go.
If you're a Demoman you can set a Timed C4 on 1 second and place it on
the truck. You'll kill yourself, but you'll blow up the truck. My
alternate way is to kill the enemies. My AIs set the C4 for me, all I
had to do is get the kills. Mission completed!
*Use your headshots for quick kills!
=====================
Mission 2 - Chechnya
=====================
Objectives
1) Destroy Mobile Anti-aircraft Guns(MAG)
2) Eliminate Commander Gradeno
Difficulty: Very Easy
Recommended Job: Sniper or Heavy Gunner
Mission Brief: An aggressive campaign launched by the Russian Army has
forced the Caspian Freedom Force to retreat to a barricaded outpost deep
in the Caucasus Mountains. The Russians are coordinating an ambitious
ground attack to disable 2 anti-aircraft weapoons taht have protected
the rebel stronghold for some time. The rebels have sworn to keep the
anti-aircraft weaponry ready and functioning at all costs.
Remember that you can always just concentrate on kills and allow your
AIs to finish the mission for you. This is your first mission that has a
large battlefield which allows excellent sniping guns to be put to use.
Your first mission is to destroy the MAG. When the mission begins take a
good look at it. You may destroy it with a grenade or with C4. When the
mission starts just head forward down the path. Don't go the way that
ends up with a train in the middle of the road. Take the long route and
eventually you'll see the first MAG. Blow it up, and you have only one
more to go. Now backtrack your way to the beginning and head towards the
train. Odds are that some gun firing is taking place here. You want to
be on the left side of the train and find the first opening on the left.
The last MAG is located here so blow it up and an airstrike will be
called. I'm not sure if it is here, because when I play either my AIs
get to it first or when in multiplayer my team does it for me. I
apologize for this, but you can let your AIs blow them up for you. When
the airstrike is called though you can gain access to that mountain area
from before. Now you don't have to try and climb it. Go into the
warehouse and look for a man that's carrying an AK 47. He'll look
differently than the others. Kill him and you'll complete this mission.
Piece of cake if you let your AIs work for you ;)
*Watchout for Snipers
*Grenaldo can kill you in a few hits
===================
Mission 3 - Canada
===================
Objectives
1) Recapture the VIP
2) Lead VIP to Extraction Point
Difficulty: Very Easy
Recommended Job: Recon or Commando
Mission Brief: An incarcerated member of the Turkish Defense League has
been broken out of confinement and authorities suspect those responsible
for the breakout are the North American arm of the TDL. Authorities are
hot on the trail of the TDL with the intent to recapture the prisoner.
Meanwhile, the TDL is racing against time to deliver him to a secret
safety zone where authorities believe he may be returned to Turkey.
This mission will take timing. Start off by buying a Frag Grenade and a
weapon of choice. Run up the hill ahead of you, and you should fall onto
a car. A tunnel is straight ahead of you so go through it. Once done you
turn left and head through the train's opening and take another left.
Take a right around the corner to access the Park area, but not through
the sewer access. Go up the hill and look to the top-right. Right as you
get close here the enemy will pop out so you can expect them. If oyu ran
all this way without any stops they should arrive there when you do.
Make sure you pull out that Frag Grenade and throw it over there. Pull
out your gun and shoot the ones that didn't die. Pick up their guns and
push the "Use" button on Gorran(VIP) so he follows you. If your
teammates are behind tell them to Go Go Go! You want as much backup as
possible. As you go down the tunnel you may see a Sniper in a little
vent area. Throw your last Frag Grenade at him and that should finish
him off. Continue down this tunnel until you see a large truck. By this
time you should expect all of the enemies you Fragged with a Grenade to
be. Pull out one of the guns you picked up and try to kill them all
without dieing. You may also go around the truck, because your AIs will
fight them. Go up the street and make a left now. You should see a van
that looks similar on the Objective screen. Stand next to it so Gorran
will run into it. You've just completed this mission! Congrats!
*Don't leave the VIP alone
*Pickup guns that are dropped and get the best armor available
================
Mission 4 - USA
================
Objectives
1) Prevent Bomb Planting
2) Diffuse Bomb
Difficulty: Fairly Hard
Recommended Job: Demoman
Mission Brief: Intelligence reports have uncovered a plan by the leftist
group known as the Black River Brigade to shut down the electrical power
grid of the western United States by attacking the Keerok Dam. United
States government officials say that any loss of power at the plant
would be calamitous. SWAT forces are on the scene and have pledged to
stop them at all costs.
This mission is a very difficult one at hand. Your objective is to kill
the Brigade so that they don't plant the bomb near the power generators.
If they do however, you must diffuse the bomb. To defuse a bomb you can
learn in the Demo Training for more specific steps. Once you locate the
bomb on one of the power generators press the "Use" button to have a
choice between 3 strips. Cut the wrong one and you're dead! Demomen can
defuse bombs faster so I highly reccomend that you be one. You can
always try and kill all the Brigades and let your AIs do it. This may be
the best choice.
*Head for the power generator ASAP and diffuse the bomb!
======================
Mission 5 - Argentina
======================
Objectives
1) Prevent Theft of Cross
2) Prevent Extraction of Cross
Difficulty: Very Easy
Recommended Job: Heavy Gunner, Sniper
Mission Brief: Argentina's National Museum officials say they are on
schedule for the grand opening of a highly anticipated showing of
Argentinean medieval art and religious artifacts despite growing
concerns about thievery. The Nino's Cross, one of the collection's most
esteemed pieces, has highly symbolic meaning to some fanatical Argentine
leftist groups. Argentina's official Special Forces unit, Las Fuerzas
Especiales, has stepped up security around the museum, fearing that
thieves might attempt to commandeer the famous artifact.
When you start out head towards the grey screen doors and open them up.
Head up the stairs in front of you and you'll see about 3 guys come out.
Blast these guys right away and get ready for another 2. Once you finish
these guys off call for a Medic to get healed. Pick up their guns and
kill them once they get down again. Repeat this until the mission ends.
It's possible that the bad guys can run down the otherside of stairs so
be on your toes! If they happen to break through the security just head
back behind where you respawn. The building behind here is the location
of the Cross. Find the room of Cross(it has the big holy man in it) and
stay in there to guard it.
*Don't let the enemy get pass the stairs position
*Armor is your first priority
*Repeatedly call Medic!
=================
Mission 6 - Peru
=================
Objectives
1) Rescue Hostages
2) Deliver Hostages to Extraction Point
Difficulty: Easy
Recommended Job: Heavy Gunner
Mission Brief: The Peruvian Hostage crisis continues into its fifth day
with no end in sight. The Peruvian Revolutionary Front has released all
but six security personnal who are believed to be imprisoned in the
auxiliary wing of residence. The PRF is negotiating its demands with the
Peruvian government and has stated that the hostages shall not be harmed
but their safety cannot be guaranteed in any sort of armed conflict with
government forces.
This mission is fairly quick and easy. It's hard to navigate around
because the area has VERY many paths and doorways. I'll show you waht I
do. When you start buy either a Desert Eagle or a USAS12. Head to the
left and into the building. Keep going and take a left when you see 2
doorways. Continue down and don't take any turns. Once you hit the end
of the hall take a right and peer to the left. In this area you should
see all the enemies. The hostages are in that room, so eliminate them
quickly and bring a hostage out. Repeat this until you win. The mission
is very easy because your AIs will save them fast.
*A good defense is a good offense. Have strong armor!
*Pick up a hostage and get the heck out
===================
Mission 7 - Uganda
===================
Objectives
1) Rescue Hostages
2) Call Aircraft for Extraction
Difficulty: Easy
Recommended Job: Commando or Heavy Gunner
Mission Brief: The hijacking of an Israeli military jet by the Marxist
Popular Army and its subsequent emergency landing at the international
airport at Entebbe, Ugande has resulted in the demanded release of
political prisoners in France in exchange for the lives of 6 Israeli
army officers being held hostage. Intelligence reports indicate that the
Ugandan Army is supporting the MPA. The Israeli elite force known as
Sayert Matkal has been deployed to launch a surprise counter attack to
liberate the hostages.
I'm sorry, but due to the fact that this stage does not work on my
computer I cannot write a guide for this stage. My computer freezes when
I start to go inside the area where the hostages are. What I do in
single player is let my CPUs do the work for me. I hang around in the
middle and kill guys as they come by. I've heard from other players that
this stage is Very Easy, and I doubt oyu would need any help in this
stage. If you know how to use your gun you'll be alright.
*Start off by calling the helicopter down
*Don't let the enemies get near the chopper. Gunfire will cause it to
escape into the air!

2.1 Tips and Tricks
*********************************
In this section are tips and tricks that I've thought of or just
pointing out for obvious reasons. They help you get better at the game!
Any tips sent in will be placed in this FAQ and you'll be credited! Just
put down what you like ot be called and I'll be glad to put it up. Some
things may seem a bit obvious, but when I first played I had no idea
that a Medic could heal himself! So here are some tips and tricks.......
General Tips
-------------
*You can load an extra bullet in almost all the guns. The extra bullet
may be that matter of life or death. I think the only gun that cannot
have an extra bullet is the Magnum, so don't panic if it doesn't work.
*It is always wise to Strafe left and right when you see a door. This
way you can easily peek out really quickly to see if harm's in your way.
If you happen to see someone try to Strafe while crouched because odds
are that he's aiming for oyur mid-section like most players do. He won't
expect you to be tiny and crouching down. This'll allow a few hits off
him before he gets you!
*Headshots, headshots, headshots. Did I mention you should go for
headshots? A pistol with Medium damage can kill someone in 1 hit if shot
accurately. I've gotten 7 kills before a death with a P14 pistol. I see
players constantly shooting machine guns like crazy. I can easily take
out a Heavy Gunner with a machine gun, and me armed with a pistol.
Headshots are the way to stay alive and bring in cash.
*Pick up weapons! People always run past powerful weapons on the floor
when I play. If you see a good weapon pick it up! You never know if it's
still full.
*When playing as a Demoman you can set C4 on vechiles and as someone
walks by just press the detonate button. The cars explosion will kill
them with ease. A Grenade Launcher could be used as well.
*Don't commit suicide, or fall from a very high spot. When you commit
suicide you get no Respawn cash. Instead, you just keep the same amount
of money. Some people would ask for guns because they had $50. Keep in
mind that if you want to try and jump across a ledge the Medic, Recon,
and Sniper can jump farther since they have more speed and lighter
armor. Heavy Gunners, Demomen, and Commandos will most likely fall and
die more often.
*In the game, if you run off of a fairly high cliff you may get hurt
around 5-10 health points. I noticed that when you stop and just walk
down and fall you would lose nothing. If you run off of a small ledge
you will be injured, but pausing will simply cause no harm on you. I
have tested this out myself. Try it in the Quebec stage. If you're
playing on the TDL side just run towards the "vent" and fall off that
small ledge. You'll lose a few health points, but try to walk off now.
You'll lose nothing! At times every bit of health may count.
*Certain stages will appear dark or the lights will flash off at times.
A good way around this is to buy Thermo Goggles or Night Goggles. I
prefer the Thermo Goggles over Night Vision. Only a few stages are in
the dark, and Thermo Goggles allow you to spot enemies easily. I always
buy Thermo Goggles before a gun. If I can afford only Thermo Goggles,
then I find a gun in the battlefield.
*I usually position myself next to a doorway. When someone runs through
it they'll just run through it. They won't look back so I pelt them in
the head a few times for an easy kill. Try to hide in spots that you
think they'd never look at. Another example would be "near" their
respawn area. Notice I said "near" and not in it. Usually those VIPs
that have infinite bullets will be around the respawn place. Like on the
South China Sea there's a man on the north side of the boat that shoots
you and his name is appeared in a Grey color. You cannot kill him, but
he can kill you.
*When playing as a Sniper you should occasionally check around your
area. I find at a lot of times Snipers just doing there sniping thing
and not knowing that I'm behind them. I usually shoot them a few times
in the head to get an easy kill. My advice for you Snipers is to keep a
Recon near you or find a REALLY good sniping area. Also, try sniping and
crouching. When I play Sniper I shoot 2 bullets and then duck down so I
don't get shot or possibly seen.
Single Player Tips
-------------------
*When you start your mission spend as much of your cash as possible.
When the game actually starts kill your Heavy Gunner or Commando and
pick up his gun. Since you have very low cash from buying armor and such
you shouldn't lose much money for the kill ally penalty!
*The best job to play on Normal or Hard is probably Recon. Why? He can
see where the enemies are ahead of time. The Recon on your team will
only use the Navigation system on the LSD. That means he's as useless as
a broken pencil.
*Don't underestimate Thermo Goggles. They are pricy, but areas will
constantly go dark. With thermo goggles enemies will be seen in a bright
orangish-yellow color so they're easier to spot. A sniper with thermo
goggles is the best combo.
*Let your AIs do the work for you. The AIs will actually do the missions
for you as long as enemies are not within sight. If you go around and
kill all your enemies you can just sit abck and let them do the work.
Basically, just kill kill kill. About 95% of the time this will work, so
this is a good alternative plan.
Multiplayer Tips
-----------------
*Try starting out as a Heavy Gunner, don't buy any weapons, and get
killed. Why am I saying this? Heavy Gunner starts with $4100 and when he
dies he gets $2050. That's $6150, now you can play as a Recon with
$6150! All you had to do is sacrifice yourself. Think about it. The
enemy shot you for around $600 and you respawn with $2050. Isn't that a
fair deal? Just buy armor, thermo gogs, and the strongest weapon and get
some revenge now! ^_^
*Never stand still! You're not playing against AI intelligence anymore.
If you stand still for even 2 seconds a sniper may get you! You don't
know when someone's watching over you. Also, constantly turn around and
check the back because it's possible someone saw you and is following
you.
*If the round is about to end and you know the map won't switch then go
and pick up a few guns to keep. When the round restarts the ammo will be
filled so if you picked up a really good gun you can use it next round!
You can even sell your weapons and get tons of cash. It's possible to
pick up enough guns to make $15000. If you happen to find any machine
guns you can make big bucks!
*Talk to people! I can't believe how many people play the game for kills
only! There are objectives and people in the game! Interact with people
and work as a team. I usually bring in a friend to play with because so
many people never talk. The only thing I hear from people is Medic!
Medic! Medic! Personally, I don't heal anyone that doesn't talk. They
don't work as a team with me so I return the favor.
*Don't kill allys, VIPs, or hostages! Some people kill them accidently
and this may cause you to be booted from servers. I've seen a player
named Player go around and kill his teammates. He was then booted. Such
was his fate ;)
*Get a feel on the stages. Certain stages such as Chechnya will have
obvious sniping spots. Most snipers will position themselves on the
bridge way up high, so you can expect 1 or 2 to be there.
*If playing Recon or Medic use your tools! I hate it when people play as
a Recon or Medic and don't use their LSD, or heal you. If you play Recon
you can earn money by setting your LSD on Broad or Narrow Scan. If your
ally kills an enemy that's $150 for doing nothing! If anyone plays with
me, turn on your LSD and rake in the dough ^_^

2.2 Questions and Answers
*********************************
If you have any questins about the game I'll gladly answer them. Just e-
mail me at either of these addresses: master_tony85@hotmail.com or
MasterTony@asianavenue.com, you may also find me on AIM as ttq8025.
Master Tony is my internet name, but I got AIM too late and someone took
that name. Even MasterTony85, or MasterTony11111. There sure are tons of
Masters out there ;) Anyways, this section is where I'll be posting e-
mails that I get. I will not post any e-mails that have any foul
language or insults. I am writing this FAQ for free and sending SPAM to
me is childish and uncalled for. Let's be adults here!
Q: How can I keep the enemy from killing the VIP in the North African
Mission(#12)?
A: Well, I haven't gotten this far yet in my FAQ, but I'll answer this.
This mission is the hardest out of the rest because the enemies will go
straight for your VIP. The way to beat this is the "Use" button. Talk to
the VIP so he follows you. A great job is a Recon so you can know ahead
of time where the enemies are wandering off to. Don't leave the VIP
alone at ANYTIME. This is the key in winning. Remember that there could
be a Sniper around so watch the VIP's back!
Q: Hi, PLEASE. do u have the cheats for glob.ops.? could u send me by
mail? PLEASE i'm in trouble THANKS
A: I'm sorry, but I don't know any cheats for Global Operations. You can
always check out webpage for htem. I heard there's a trainer out for it
that unlocks all missions. I'm not the "cheating" type and don't use
those. No more e-mails about these alright guys?
Q: Your FAQ Sucks! Jeez, it's the WORST piece of (insert lots of foul
language here)! I could beat ya 1vs1 and knock yo head off!
A: This is the type of stuff that I hate to be placed in my e-mail. If
you have the guts to swear at me, then have the guts to play me. Btw, I
actually did play this person and he was just "all-talk" isn't that
right "Rave-Meister"? :-p
Q: How come when I shoot people in the head it isn't a one-hit kill?
A: It's hard to tell when or if you hit someone in the head. That's why
you shoot them 3 or 4 times to be sure. If you play multiplayer games
you'll occasionally find that head shots sometimes miss. It's possibly
due to a glitch and a patch will soon cover for it. Also, try aiming in
one spot(such as a wall)and shoot. The bullet is not 100% accurate if
you fire 2 of them. You could have hit them near the neck or above the
chest so to be safe. Take at least 3 headshots.
Q: How come Heavy Gunners can carry like 5 guns and Recons and Medics
can carry only like 1 gun?
A: Your answer is a little exaggerated my friend. You see, a Heavy
Gunner, Commando, and Demoman can carry a primary weapon, a secondary
weapon, and a sidearm. The Recon, Medic, and Sniper can carry a primary
weapon and sidearm only. So if you want to gain extra cash before the
round restest just switch to a Heavy Class and pick up 2 heavy guns.
Q: Hello, I was wondering how I could change the control keys to my
liking?
A: Answers like this could be found in the instructions booklet. Please
consult your instructions booklet before asking questions like this. The
answer is to go to the main menu. Select wahtever Profile you wish to
use. You should see a gaem menu at the top that has 3 buttons. A Login,
Game, and Options button. Click on Options. Finally, click on Controls
and adjust the game settings to whatever you wish. Also, you may want to
adjust the special effects. Lower them and the game should run MUCH
smoother.
