How to Play
Main Menu
SINGLE PLAYER
Enables the user to start a new single player game or resume a previously saved game.
Beginning a new game will also enable the user to select a desired difficulty level: Easy, Medium, or Hard.
•
Starting a new game without first creating or loading a Player Profile will result in gameplay that cannot be saved.
MULTIPLAYER
Select this option to begin a multiplayer game.
PROFILES
Profiles are user-customised characters and control configurations. This option enables users to access, create, delete or copy a profile to a memory card (8MB) (for PlayStation® 2).
Profiles will also keep track of various user statistics accumulated during gameplay. A custom profile must be selected before playing Red Faction II if the user wishes to save the game's progress.
•
If you are just starting Red Faction II, you must first create a custom profile if you wish to play a game that can be saved.
Accept
Accepts the currently selected profile. If you have more than one profile on a memory card (8MB) (for PlayStation®2), use either the Left analog stick or directional buttons to scroll though available profiles.
Stats
Keeps record of the selected profile's preferred weapon, number of shots fired, hit percentage, number of enemy kills, number of headshot kills, number of civilian (innocent) deaths, and the current status of your "heroics" meter. These stats will change as gameplay progresses.
Create
Enables the user to create a new profile. Use either the Left Analog Stick or Directional Pad to input a name and then highlight and select "accept".
You can store a maximum of eight profiles on one memory card (8MB) (for PlayStation®2).
Delete

Copy
Enables the user to copy the currently selected profile to a newly named profile on the same memory card (8MB) (for PlayStation®2) (MEMORY CARD slot 1 only) and then select the new profile as the current profile.
OPTIONS
Select this option if you wish to change the default game settings, audio/video settings, and controller configurations.

Cheats
Enables the user to enter codes that enable various cheats such as infinite ammo and super health.
Pause Menu
Pressing the START button while in-game will pause the action until the START button is pressed again. While the game is paused, the player will see a variety of game stats. These stats are saved to your profile:
•
Kills: The number of enemy kills the player has received.
•
Civilian Deaths: The number of civilian kills the player has recorded.
•
Shots Fired: The total number of shots the player has fired with all weapons.
•
Hit Percentage: The percentage of hits to misses the player has recorded.
•

Saving and Loading Games
Saving
Red Faction II will automatically save your progress every time a level section is completed. You can manually save your progress by going to the In-game menu and selecting "Save Progress". If this option is chosen, the game will save your progress up through the last level section that is completed.
Loading
To load and continue play from a previously saved game, use the "Profiles" option from the Main Menu. When "Profiles" is selected from the Main Menu, all your previously saved Profiles will be loaded from applicable memory card (8MB) (for PlayStation®2).
Once loaded, all your available and saved profiles can be accessed by scrolling through the list of named profiles using either the Left analog stick or left/right directional buttons. When the desired profile is highlighted, press the X button to select. You will then be taken back to the Main Menu. At the Main Menu select "Single Player" to choose from a list of available single player levels or continue where you last left your game's progress.
•
In single player games, all user data is automatically saved and loaded from MEMORY CARD slot 1 or MEMORY CARD slot 1-A (if a multitap (for PlayStation®2) is inserted into controller port 1). In multiplayer games, users are able to save and load data to any supported MEMORY CARD slot.
Heroics
The "Heroics" meter plays an important part in the game. When the bar is blue, the player's "heroics" is highest. When the bar is red, the player's "heroics" is lowest. The amount of "heroics" the player has when completing the game can determine the ending you receive.
Killing civilians will have a negative effect on the player's "heroics". Finding and completing hidden objectives will have a positive effect.
Occasionally the player will see a red or

Tips & Maps
Pay attention to incoming HUD messages.
You might receive some valuable information.
Check your objectives often.
If you get stuck, chances are you've neglected to fulfill an objective.
If you're low on health, find a safe place to hide.
Alias can regenerate health after a short period of time.
Don't be afraid to blow up walls.
This is, after all, the only game with Geo-Mod™ Technology. You just might find a hidden area.
Become accustomed to strafing.
Strafing back and forth from behind a safe-area is an excellent way to defeat some enemies.
Frag Grenades begin their countdown to exploding from the moment they hit a surface.
Proper timing is essential.
If you're out of ammo and have only a pistol to equip, use the alternate fire button to pistol whip opponents.
Use the alternate fire button to pistol whip opponents.
If you're targeting a person and your reticle changes to a circle with an X through it, don't shoot!
The targeted person is an innocent civilian.
