Every time you play a multiplayer
game with your custom character, you have the choice of
saving your stats to a
controller pak or the game. You will notice that your
custom character has a ranking. As you play more games,
earn more medals, etc. your ranking will go up. You start
off at rank 21 and the best you be is rank 1. Your
ranking can't go down, so just keep playing and you'll
eventually make it up there! There are : Kills, Ammo
Used, Damage Dealt, Games Won, Time, Distance, and all
four types of medal. Each of these categories has ten set
steps within it, and reaching a step earns you one point.
Collect five total points from all categories combined,
and your rank moves up. To become Perfect though, you
must reach the top number in each category. Examples are
getting 900 of each medal, travelling more than 9000km,
and having your playing time over 12:12:00 (12 days, 12
hours). So needless to say, it's not an easy task. Below
is a list of the rankings from best to worst.
1.) Perfect
8.) Deadly
15.) Agent
2.) Near Perfect
9.) Dangerous
16.) Trooper
3.) Invincible
10.) Professional
17.) Novice
4.) Elite
11.) Veteran
18.) Rookie
5.) Lethal
12.) Expert
19.) Amateur
6.) Assassin
13.) Special Agent
20.) Trainee
7.) Killer
14.) Star Agent
21.) Beginner
Below is a list of the ten
statistics needed for going up one rank.
This means exactly what it
says. You were the most deadly player in your game. You got the
most kills by doing whatever you could to totally murder your
opponent. I love it!
Most Harmless:
This is the opposite of
Most Deadly. This is usually given to the person with the least
kills. Basically, you have no clue on how to kill people and you
better start taking lessons from Mr. Most Deadly!
Most Professional:
This is a GOOD award to
get. This means that you do everything very professional like.
You always try for head shots! Good job!
Most Cowardly:
This is another award that
you DON'T want to get. This is exactly what it says, you were the
most cowardly. Instead of staying in the middle of a battle and
trying to win you ran!
Most Honorable:
You were the most honorable
player in the game. You never killed people that didn't have
weapons, you never killed from the back, etc. What's wrong with
you!?
Most Dishonorable:
Obviously, this is the
opposite of the award Most Honorable. You are basically the
person that everyone hates. You thrive on killing people without
weapons or killing from behind. This is a good award though,
because in this game you WANT to be dishonorable!
Longest Life:
Another self explanatory
award, you were the player that stayed in the game without dieing
for the longest. You probably liked the shield a lot, or just got
yourself lost!
Shortest Life:
Opposite of longest life,
you can never seem to live! Your the guy that dies right when you
re-spawn. Too bad....
Most Frantic:
Your the crazy guy that is
strafing everywhere and almost impossible to even hit, forget
kill! You never stop moving for even a second, and you make the
game exciting!
Most Suicidal:
You fall of pits or kill
yourself with explosive way too much. But if you want to play
that way, go ahead...
Best Protected:
This is the same as the
AC-10 award in GoldenEye 007. You are the guy that knows the map
well...or at least knows where the shields are! You always have a
shield, so your always protected.
Least Shielded:
Opposite of the Best
Protected award, you have no clue where the shield is. You almost
never got the shield. What's wrong with you! You definitely
haven't visited the Arenas page of our Multiplayer section yet!
Marksmanship:
You have excellent
accuracy. Your the guy that probably had the golden gun all game
or something like that. Or maybe your just good at hitting your
targets, who knows!
Who needs ammo?:
You go into a battle with
only 10 bullets, run out of ammo, and then never pick up
more............
The green star stands for
accuracy. This medal is given to the player with the most
accuracy.
Head Shot
The yellow star stands for
Head Shot. This is given to the player in the game with the most
head shots.
KillMaster
The red star stands for
KillMaster. This is given to the person in the game with the most
kills.
Survivor
The blue star stands for
Survivor. This award is given to the player who survived the
longest with only one life.
To get all four stars, set
all the weapons to Falcon 2. Then set limits to 1 score &
team score and unlimited time. Then press start for player 2.
Then start the game. Find player 2 and shoot him in the head. Do
not use any ammo exept to kill player 2! The game will end
and you will get all four stars!
These are the the
different kinds of computers you play against in challenges and
multiplayer. There are two different groups of simulants, normal
simulants and special simulants. Normal simulants are just
regular players (some better than others) while Special simulants
have special attributes. Some of the normal simulants need to be
unlocked by beating challenges.
Normal
Simulants
MeatSim
Stupid simulants with no
accuracy at all, the easiest sim to beat. If you
can't kill a MeatSim, you need serious help.
EasySim
This sim is still stupid,
but not as much as the MeatSim. It's aim is decent
and knows how to survive.
NormalSim
This sim is just about as
good as an average Perfect Dark player. It won't
make you run for your life, but can put up a decent
fight.
HardSim
These guys are a bit
tricky, they know how to use the Radar, hunt for the best
weapons, set traps, and has very good reaction
time. Watch out for these guys
PerfectSim
This sim almost lives up
to its name, extremely high intelligence. A real
test to see just how good you are.
DarkSim
This sim just might be
the hardest computer in video gaming history, guarantied
to make you get pissed and kick your N64 or throw a
controller out the window. You'll never meet a
cheaper opponent.
Special
Simulants
PeaceSim
PeaceSims are scientists
that just don't like fighting. They go around
collecting all of the guns in hope to stop all the
fighting, if you kill one of these, you're in store for a
whole lot of ammo and weapons.
ShieldSim
These guys only like one
thing....you guessed it, shields. Right when you
damage these guys, the go off to find more shields, these
one can get annoying real quick.
RocketSim
The supreme pyro, loves
to see things burst into flames. You never want to
be on the other side of this guys rocket launcher.
KazeSim
Stay away from this sim,
he has suicidal tendencies and will do
anything...ANYTHING to see you die.
FistSim
This sim can get really
annoying, he goes around collecting all the guns but
refuses to use them, he even disarms people, while only
uses his fists to fight.
PreySim
This sim is a lot like a
vulture, picks on the little guy, he will only attack
people with weak weapons or people who just spawned.
CowardSim
This sim will only fight
a person it he thinks he can win. Just carry a big
gun and he will surely leave you alone.
FeudSim
This sim picks a person
and fixates on them, the rest of the game he will
mercilessly hunt down the same person the whole game.
SpeedSim
This sim lives up to his
name, very fast and will always be hard to hit with big
guns like rocket launchers and devastators, use
automatics and position your self instead of fleeing.
TurtleSim
This sim is super slow
and super protected (kind of like a turtle..duh).
He has a shield that is twice as strong as a normal
shield but he is very slow and an easy target.
VengeSim
This guy is supremely
annoying, he will attack the person who killed him last
until someone else destroys him. Best thing to do
is leave him alone.
JudgeSim
This guy is really
decent. He will attack the person who is doing the
best in hope to even it out.
To bring up the list of
commands for your simulants press and hold 'A' during gameplay to
bring up the weapon select menu, now press 'Z' twice to bring up
the command menu. While in the command menu press 'Z' again to
scroll from sim to sim. Hold R to assign commands to all
simulants. Here are the following orders:
Attack
Get your sims to
attack! They don't just attack anybody, you can assign
them targets to attack. By choosing attack another menu
appears with a list of enemies/targets to choose from.
Follow
Get your troops to
follow your every move. A good way to bring team mates to
a guarding point that they can defend from. If an enemy
walks by and/or attacks the follow sim will then chase
after the enemy.
Protect
You team mates will
watch the surroundings around you for anything that
moves. They'll follow you to safety.
Defend
If
you want a sim to stand guard a briefcase or a computer
terminal this is the command for you. They won't let
anything through, unless of course, they die.
Hold
You
can use this command to use weak sims as bait. Hide
around the corner or plant a turrent gun near the weak
sim holding their position and wait for an unsuspecting
victim to come...
Special
This
command depends on the scenario you're playing. For
example, you're playing Capture the Case, the special
command would be to get the briefcase, or in King of the
Hill it says hold the Hill or Defend Hill.
There are
30 multiplayer challenges in all. By completing each challenge
(with the exception of the first and last four) you will get
access to more weapons, maps, and scenarios for muliplayer. Here
is a list of challenge's and what you get from completing them:
The Combat
Simulator (multiplayer mode) contains 14 preset matches,
including the ones you need to unlock. These multiplayer
simulations are predetermined in every area, and are for the lazy
people who don't want to make up their own simulations, or who
want to go to a quick match. By the way, you can save up to four
custom simulation on your own on the Game Pak or Controller Pak.
Of course, you may modify any of these preset matches to your own
desires. These are all 14 of them:
No
Shield - No shields in the Skedar area. Weapons are Falcon,
CMP150, Cyclone, MagSec4, and AR53. The match ends after 10
minutes or if someone scores 10 points.
Rocket
Launcher - NOT Area 51, but Area 52 in this simulator. Main
weapon is Rocket Launcher, but there is also the Dragon, and some
others that are not mentioned. Have a blast.
King of
the Hill - Skedar area, with radar. K7 Avenger, DY357 Magnum,
AR53 guns, and maybe more (check King of the Hill scenario for
more info).
Hold the
Briefcase - Skedar area (check Hold the Briefcase scenario
for more info). Don't waste time on players who don't have the
briefcase.
Capture
the Case - Area 52 (check Capture the Case scenario for more
info). Basically, find enemy with a Case, get rid of him and run
back to your case before someone takes it.
Temple
Explosives - Temple, guns: Devastator, Super Dragon. 10
minutes. Turn down the music so you can hear doors opening up
behind you.
Tranquilizer
- Rarely try to use the tranquilizer to kill, only use the
tranquilizer with the help of some more powerful weapons.
Simulants
- Skedar area (they must like this place), 4 low-level simulants
(check simulants section later on), guns: Rocket Launcher, AR53,
CMP150, good ambush points.
