Obviously enough, you're going to have to situate your troopers here while you use your wiles and guns to watch their backs. When you reach the next bacta dispenser, get one of your squaddies into the sniping spot, then order anyone who's wounded to heal themselves before walking up; doing so will trigger yet more Geonosians to appear, so keep killing them until the influx ceases. After you get the head's up from the slicer that the console's been hacked, though, get away from the dispenser; the speeder will shoot out towards it, instantly blowing it away. Anyway, after the charge fizzles out, you'll be commanded to fire a rocket at the fuel line underneath the bridge. You can destroy the droid dispenser if you wish, but there's no particular reason to. After the terminal has been sliced, you'll have to wait for around 20 seconds for the ordinance to arrive, so keep your troopers in place, and retask the slicer to the snipe spot, if he's still alive. (If you bring up the pistol, you can switch it out for a second weapon.) If anyone of the Trandos get up next to the turret, finish them off with a melee attack. EC Grenades: EC grenades are going to be an absolute lifesaver when you're facing off against mechanized enemies. When that's done, blow it, then withdraw back to the bacta dispenser to heal your soldiers up before moving to exit the level through the ventilation shaft near the conduit. Sonic Grenades: Sonic grenades are somewhat unique among the grenades in Republic Commando, in that they're not detonated according to a timer, but rather based on proximity, and due to the fact that they can stick to walls and the floor. Before you proceed, though, be prepared for the inevitable Trando ambush in the large room where you first see Tarfful. Where you are going to want to use an EC grenade is in the hallway beyond the door behind the SBD; there's a small army of battle droids here who'll become sitting ducks if you hit them with a grenade at the right time. When you've reached the locked door around the corner, start slicing the console, but be ready to place a soldier in the anti-armor position that appears, as another ambush will be imminent. We found that keeping one soldier on the snipe point near the door with another one near the console gave us pretty good coverage on the Elites as they flew up, but don't forget that you can task all three soldiers to the snipe spots while you slice the console yourself, if you wish. Escort Tarfful To The End of the Bridge After you find Tarfful, you'll have to bring him to the end of the level. Do so, eliminate all of the enemies, then heal your guys up before you move to the end of the level. Again, grenades are a bad idea here, so you'll probably want to run back to some cover, then use your sniper attachment to strafe out and pop the droid with headshots. It never gets old! When you reach the nearby hangar, you'll soon be ambushed by a trio of Grievous guards. Now, there are two of these bodyguards, but luckily only one will appear at a time. The only catch here is that more Trandos will appear from the skylight above your snipers after enough of their ground-based brethren get killed, but if you stand underneath them as they rappel down, you can easily take them out with your melee attack before they have a chance to fire at all. When all of them are patched up, you'll be able to activate the area's lockdown system, which should enable you to prevent any of the Trandos here from leaving. It can also work against singular powerful enemies, like the Trandoshan HAM, but has little effect on droids. Speculation. Instead of a strict countdown, though, you'll get periodic notifications of hull strength; you'll have to find a way to prevent the destruction of the ship by disabling or destroying the Federation control ship before your hull strength reaches zero. The game features both single-player and multiplayer game modes. On the bridge leading across the spire, there are a pair of detonation spots, so start pulling your team off the sniper spots (after making sure that they're all fully healed) and wending your way down the path. We found that this let us trigger in enemy spawns and get an idea of what was going to happen in a given fight before issuing further commands to our troopers or getting them to move forward and fire on the enemies. Watch the side hallways for more Trandos as you proceed. There will be battle droids coming out of the other dispenser to your rear, but they won't seriously hurt your teammates, so you can ignore them if you wish. You should have two EC grenades from the beginning of the level, so use them both on the guard and take it down before turning your attention back to the spider droid. The trick here is that sometimes Tarfful's scripting will break, and he won't follow you into the arena for the fight, so you'll have to take on both bodyguards with just your troopers. You won't be able to see any access points, but if you get up next to the ladder underneath the walker, you'll be able to climb aboard. They don't get too far from you, which lets you keep an eye on them, at least. Feel free to use your laser on this one, if you wish; you can afford to be a little reckless since there are more bacta dispensers beyond the fallen force field. After the spider droid comes through the door, it'll start wreaking havoc on one of your squaddies, but that's no big deal; you can just revive him later on. As soon as you step out into the middle of the room, you'll be beaten down by two SBD's on either side of you. This will take a minute or two, but you're going to have some downtime after this fight, so even if the turret gunner gets killed, you're going to be able to heal them back up again after the dispenser goes up in smoke. When the first little melee is over, start commanding your squaddies to run down to the bacta dispenser near the bend in the canyon. Although it's an acceptable weapon when used in close combat against organic foes, you'll almost have to be in melee range before your shots consistently hit, begging the question of why you wouldn't just use your melee attack for the instant kill. That said, if you have one, a Wookiee rocket launcher will make short work of spider droids, so don't hesitate to use it if you have one. A whole horde of Trando berserkers will be coming for you soon. If you proceed far enough, you'll run into a droideka, but so long as you have the sniper set up back down the hallway, you should be able to wear it down with simple blaster fire. Although you miss out on the free grenade from a breach, and you will have to wait ten seconds for the slice to go through, the extra control you gain over your passage through the door is usually going to be worth it. I know there is a bonus planet. There are numerous battle droids here, but none are of the Super variety, meaning that they're far less dangerous to you than the turrets are. The third squaddie should be in form up position, so that he sticks near you. With a soldier tasked to laying charges, you can focus on taking down the SBD's themselves with the grenades. Rate,Comment and Subscribe for more! Next up, you'll have to find a path around a bulkhead that the Wookiees have sealed. Regardless, you'll have to deal with the appearance of a Geonosian Elite outside the window, so mark it with your use key to get its health readout before engaging in more strafing exercises with the wall. It's important to keep your teammate alive, though, since you won't have a chance to resurrect him if he dies, so periodically task him to the bacta dispensers in the corner. Slicing this console will take out the droid dispenser without actually having to place a charge on it. EC grenades are like silver bullets when used against droids. There are two barricades to bust through, but there are also a number of sniping spots on the bridge itself, meaning that you'll be able to keep your cover fire up pretty easily as you command your troopers to move up. If you head inside, you'll notice a bunch of Trandoshans assaulting a trooper. Your team should be able to make short work of the grenadiers when they're in position. Like all good-hearted Trandoshans, he'll be more than happy to follow you back to the anti-armor room, where you'll be able to get your teammates to take him down while you chip in with sniper fire. When they're out of the way, meet up with the Wookiee around the corner; he'll take you up to meet Tarfful, and dispatch most of the droids along the way. Revive any wounded soldiers, if possible, then get them all back to the opposite side of the bridge and start healing them. The spider droid doesn't possess any normal blaster attacks; instead, it uses its main cannon for single, powerful shots, as well as a pair of missile launchers for extra damage. When you're all healed up and ready to proceed, set two of your squaddies into sniping positions along the walkway while a third is tasked with slicing the console itself. To get to him, you'll need to place a charge near the window, then place another on the forcefield lining Tarfful's cage nearby. At the end, though, you'll be ambushed by Trando mercs that break through a previously sealed bulkhead; you'll need to through three thermal detonators into the breach in order to seal it. After you breach the first doorway here and take down the droids, be sure to grab the anti-armor ammo lying next to the door before you charge through. When they've been blown, though, you'll be able to move another soldier to the sniping spot in the hallway, giving your third squaddie plenty of cover while he slices the forcefield leading to the power conduit. Their flight also makes Geonosians less susceptible to grenade fire. Technically this isn't required, but it'll obviously make it easier to get out of this room without getting shot up. Xbox, PC. Secure Hangar There are a couple more SBD's in the next hallway. Although EC grenades penetrate the shield, thermals do not, so you'll have to throw them a bit behind the SBD if you want them to take any damage. Unfortunately, your trip is going to hit a snag almost immediately, as you'll run across a pair of droid dispensers. As you proceed down the canyon, you'll come to another sniping spot that looks out over a chasm, on the other side of which is a squad of battle droids. Advance to Hangar B Prepare Hangar Defense The next pair of levels will involve killing a whole lot of droids; the Federation has arrived to take possession of the ship, and your squad is the only one that can stop them. Another charge on the detritus near the bacta dispensers will net you some anti-armor rounds, which will be handy to use against the four SBDs that follow hard upon the droidekas. Your real objective here is to just run forward along the wall to the right of the doorway, shooting barrels that you see before you get into their area of effect and stunning any SBDs or droidekas with EC grenades. Rather than forming up, though, start assuming that something big, say like a spider droid, will be coming out of the door when you slice through. You'll notice a turret in the corner across from the terminal, as well as a sniper spot and a grenadier spot. You should get a red targeting reticule when you're aiming at the correct location, so chuck a grenade into the hole and watch the fun. After all four of the Elites are dead, the sniping positions will vanish, so you'll have to revive and heal your team before blowing the SBD dispenser the old fashioned way. Obviously, they pack a bit of a punch thanks to their quad blaster array, but they aren't as damaging as SBD's are, and while their energy shield will protect them from damage, it can be overwhelmed with normal blaster fire. It's a long fight, like we said, so you'll need to practice some ammo management if you want to have enough EC grenades and anti-armor charges to last through the whole deal. If you're under two minutes by the time the turrets are destroyed, you can safely ignore this step and instead command your team to start healing themselves up at the bacta dispensers near the console. Luckily, these guys don't all come at once, but it's still going to be a difficult fight to survive. They're not particularly tough to kill, but their ability to fly and their hard-hitting melee attacks can be difficult to deal with. In the next long hallway, you'll find an anti-armor and snipe position, so place your soldiers there before moving on to trigger the droideka spawn. After a full minute of simultaneous slicing, your troopers will be returned to your control, allowing you to place them in the sniper and anti-armor slots near the consoles. This is where you'll want to use your anti-armor ammo; a pair of shells at their feet should take out the duo without a problem, leaving you with a door to blast open. There is a planet next to genosis but it's locked. When you do reach the rear of the hangar, though, you'll be instructed to slice a terminal so that Advisor can deliver some "ordinance." Of course the SBD's will be coming at you this whole time, but they should move slowly enough for you to eliminate the Elites before they reach the ramp leading up to the turret. What you're going to want to do is set up a sniper at the far end of the hallway, then bring two of your teammates down to the dispenser and use one of them to blow it. In Pack 1, play through three Star Wars-themed tables: Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, Star Wars, and Boba Fett. The next curved hallway seems a pair of droidekas coming at you. After the commando opens the vent for you, crawl through and activate your nightvision. It's usually the better option, as you'll be able to get the first shot off at the enemies beyond, and the turrets don't seem to react to your presence at all if you slice through the doors, letting you blast them without having to deal with their shooting you in return. Note that the second bodyguard will almost always land in the same place when he jumps into the arena (which usually occurs immediately after the first one dies). When the coast is clear, pop one of your squadmates on the sniper spot nearby, then command the other two to enter the snipe spots on the far side of the room, but be sure to select the ones on the lower level. If you slice through it, you'll open the exhaust vent completely, giving you access to the interior of the ship, as well as revealing--Mynocks? Matthew Rorie Obviously enough, saving your game at this point would be a good idea, because a single spider droid can kill you in just a couple of hits. You can either detach the foremost sniper (who's the target of most of the Geonosian charges) or the turreteer and have one of them place the explosives, but be sure to give them plenty of cover fire, as there are going to be a lot of enemies to deal with here. Next up is another hallway that's completely packed with explosives. After the turret is unmanned, get someone in there, move your AA gunner over to the second snipe spot, then run to the barricade and plant a charge on it. © Web Media Network Limited, 1999 - 2021. Your first objective is to bypass the droids and work your way along the path until you come to a crashed troop transport; the area is crawling with droids, and your task is to eliminate them until they die from it. You'll need to compensate for your distance to the target by aiming well above their heads in most instances, so a bit of practice will be required before you can land your shots accurately. The battle droids will come to you, but the SBD's won't; they'll remain in the hallway leading to the exit from the level. As the battle begins, a droid dispenser will come floating through the field and land right near the proximity mines you laid on the three barrels; the resulting explosion will take it out. The turrets are going to be extremely bothersome here; they're not difficult to kill, but they will dish out quite a bit of damage to your snipers as they move up the hall. After the Wookiee takes off, you'll have to move around the corner from whence he came and penetrate the tower nearby to get a glimpse of the incoming ship for Advisor. After placing Fixer in the snipe point near the door, sweep through the room and kill off every Trando you find. It's definitely more useful against some enemies than others - it has a difficult time broaching the armor plating on super battle droids, for instance--but with enough time, it's capable of taking down almost anything. Destroy Jamming Device Now that the shield has come down, you'll notice that a new sniping spot has appeared directly across from the charge-laying spot for the jamming device. When the charge is set, blow it and move around the landing pad to find the base's lower level. A mine that can only detect things taller than four feet? Now, the main thing you're going to have to worry about here is the appearance of a Geonosian Elite soldier. Hangar D has been fortified with droid and SBD dispensers, leaving you with the monumental task of taking out an enemy that's entrenched and has the advantage of numbers. After it's been blown, you'll be able to access the mission end, so ignore any remaining enemies and run to it. In it, you take on the role of RP-1138, an elite member of a commando squadron of the Republic Army. Save your game before heading through the doorway, if possible, because doing so will trigger an event. Advance To The Center Span I know what you're thinking, punk...did I fire 59 shots or 60? more Trandoshans. These guards are annoying, but you only have to take one of them on at a time. Fortnite Season 6 Adds Primal Theme With Lara Croft, Animals, And Neymar, New Xbox Game Pass Titles Coming Soon Include The Former Switch Exclusive Octopath Traveler. Your first priority, though, should be to stay the hell away from these guys; your troopers are pretty resilient, but they'll cut through your armor and health with just a few swings of their batons. Soon enough, though, its teammates will roll back to your position and open fire. The general jist of the fight, though, will entail you sitting back while your sniper does his thing on the baddie. With all of your soldiers grouped together in one little circle, the guard should take the bait and start moving in, baton wailing. If you would like to receive an email to let you know if/when we have added this question to the site please enter your email address. To begin with, you'll find a sniping position, then a room full of explosives and a breachable door, behind which lurk three SBDs. Well, this is similar, but you won't have the ticking clock hanging over your head, so feel free to take your time and do things right. When you slice through the door near Sev's turret, you'll come up behind a pair of fleeing Geonosians. What do you do to get there? Luckily, when they die, they'll drop it, allowing you to snatch it and use it for your own nefarious purposes. Email news@gamespot.com. . As you round the corner, you'll come across your first Trandoshan Heavily Armored Mercenary (HAM), which is in the process of completely eliminating a squad of troopers. We used this far more often than S&D, but it really is going to be a personal preference as to which one you'll choose. Getting your soldiers into turrets will let them blast away at incoming enemies with an unlimited amount of rockets, laser ammo, or what have you. It's possible to get them both before either of the Wookiees goes down, but extremely unlikely; one of them is fairly exposed. All three of these consoles will need to be sliced if you're going to get the ship out of harm's way. This badass weapon spits out shells at an incredible rate, and can hold a good amount of ammo in its clip. They're only going to cause problems for you when you need to pass through that area in a second. I have not been able to find out how to access it either. After you get done slicing, retask the free soldier to the sniping position near the door you just came through, not to the grenadier position near the other snipers. Most grunt-level enemies will be killed if they're anywhere near the blast when it goes off, making this an effective anti-infantry tool for you (and for the Trandoshan enemies that wield it). Unfortunately, you'll soon trigger the appearance of two more, so you'll again want to heal up your troops before moving through the substation room. This latter is probably the best method for draining their health, as you can use it while a guard is wailing on one of your teammates without him taking too much damage, and because it'll freeze the guard in place while your snipers get a few shots on it. If you just keep your teammates formed up on you during all of this, you should be able to survive quite handily, but if you wish, task one of them to the turret to cover you while another soldier sets the charge that'll get you inside. The droids are, as usual, going to be the biggest annoyance here, but if you can land a thermal or EC grenade underneath them, they should go down without a hitch. When the droids stop coming, grab the AA rounds from the hallway and head down to the bacta dispenser. In the next large room, you'll have to disable a pair of SBD's from long range. Even if the Wookiee survives all this, he'll stay behind at this point, but don't worry; there's another Wookiee in a cell in the next room that you can free. It's probably better to save the latter for the upcoming fights, though. In the hangar beyond, you're going to come up against a huge number of sniper positions, charge placements, and explosive barrels, all of which will have context-specific commands for your troopers. That said, the MP in RC isn't all that bad, and can definitely be enjoyable when taken on its own. Trandos are adept at setting ambushes, so you'll want to always proceed with caution when you know they're around. He's going to be able to slice doors and consoles for you, such as the one immediately next to his location. Still, it can be done, and indeed will have to be, since you need to access the bridge to finish the level. What's worse is that droidekas have been dispatched to monitor the hallways leading up to the hangar, meaning that you'll have to fight your way to the fight, if you get our meaning. If you happen to have kept the Wookiee Rocket Launcher from the first part of this level, then by all means, use it now and put this thing out of its misery. Heading into the corridor will trigger the appearance of another spider droid, so it'll be useful to know precisely what you have to use on it before you try to take it down. Sure enough, a pair of Trandos will pop out of the walls as you walk in, so kill them and grab the flashbang grenades before moving on. The first is a barrage of grenades from over the wall, which are difficult to evade if you don't start moving backwards as soon as you spot the first one. The prime sticking point for the hacker, then, will be a droideka that will take up position in the far corner of the hangar, near the field coil. After everything's kablooie, exit the walker, and Advisor will drop the lift and let you into the exit from the level. Most of these are just distractions, and won't come into play during the upcoming fight. Also note that their proximity trigger can be tripped by corpses, so if you're trying to lay one down where you suspect enemies might be moving, it will likely explode immediately if there are already fallen foes in the area. There's another turret here, and although it's less powerful than the green-laser one you used earlier, it'll still get the job done on the three SBD's in the area, as well as the ones coming out of the Coreship corridor at the end of the canyon. If you stand underneath the plank above the charge area, you'll be able to kill the rappelling Trandos as they hit the ground with your melee strikes. Most guard fights take place in areas with multiple sniper and anti-armor positions, so you'll want to have your teammates set themselves up into these, with sniper positions probably being the most preferable option available. If it does get entangled in close-quarters combat with a commando or Tarfful, chuck an EC grenade at their feet to momentarily stun the foe, then start pelting it with blaster fire. Beyond the droideka, you'll want to periodically check the SBD dispenser near the slicer to ensure that none of the baddies issued forth from there are pounding him in the back. Band Of Brothers Sequel Casts Its Lead Actor, Johnny Cage Isn't In The Mortal Kombat Movie. It's gonna get messy! Like obedient pets, they'll stay where you tell them to and let you go about your business unfettered. If you have any EC grenades or anti-armor rounds left, feel free to use them all, as there are boxes of each in the room, as well as bacta dispensers. Success depends on your ability to maximize the effectiveness of your comrades. Now I need to find a good way to do that on a generic level without breaking other games. Anti-Armor Position: Anti-armor fire can devastate droid enemies, but these positions are unfortunately one of the more problematic in the game. A single soldier in the sniping spot here can hold off the oncoming SBD's while you take turns healing up. Infiltrate Slaver Camp The bulk of the Trandos will be popping over this wall, so be ready and waiting for them. You have to say it like Princess Leia does over and over again, until the word connotes things deeply mysterious. After the transport is safe, another path will open, leading to a little tunnel system.
