JACK'S PLEA
Nov 30th
Dear Nick,
It's been a few weeks since I last wrote you. I hope your posting in Ramadi is going okay and that the insurgents aren't making too much of a nuisance of themselves on your daily ops.
Back at home, things are going from bad to worse. Gang violence has reached a level we've not seen since the crackhouse wars of the early nineties - and not just in the rough neighborhoods, either. The gangs seem to be organizing themselves with almost religious fervor.
I don't say this lightly, but it feels like the city is at war with itself. If something isn't done soon, we're going to lose the city to the Burners - a group of psycho-terrorist revolutionaries.
With the sons of the city overseas, fighting a war that seems hell-bent on nothing, us old-timers are left fighting for the freedom of the city. We need our toughest young men back. Guys like you with combat experience might not have been the first choice a couple years back.
But right now the Mayor and the Chief of Police are planning to take the fight to the gangs. We gotta meet these bastards head on, on their terms. "Soft" policing doesn't work with these animals.
Hot lead, flash bangs, and good old-fashioned brutality is the only language they understand. A "Zero Tolerance" task force of tooled-up cops seems like the only way to rid the city of this cancer. If the Mayor gets his way, we're gonna be ready to hit back by the end of next month.
I don't want to sound like a broken record, but the Masons have always been city cops. While I know you made your decision and have made the Marine Corps your life, maybe now you should be rethinking where your loyalties lie. To the city and folks that nurtured you, or to those suits in Washington who seem more interested in lining their pockets than anything else.
I'll say no more, but you wouldn't recognize our neighborhood - it's gone to hell. I need to get back on shift in a couple of hours, back in the eye of the storm again, trying to get more intel on these Burner assholes.
Anyway, son, I'll say so long now. Will you write me soon and tell me what you think? Maybe staying in the Corps feels like the right thing to do career-wise, but your family and your city need you now.
Love,
Jack

Dear Nick,
I hoped I'd never have to send this message - but things have changed in a big way since you headed out on your latest tour. Your father was out on patrol yesterday as normal.
He and Steve Zuchero had just arrived in their patrol car to investigate a warehouse break-in, when a gang surrounded the car, smashed in the windows, and molotoved it. Your dad didn't stand a chance - Zuchero managed to escape on foot but couldn't do anything to save Jack.
Not only did they let him burn, but they held off the Emergency Services and back-up with handguns as he fried.
Nick, I know that me and your dad used to rib you for the choices you've made over the years, but hear me out. Right now, this new unit I'm heading up, name of T-Zero, needs men like you, who've seen the horror of war.
With my connections, graduating the Police Academy is a formality. Just get your ass back here for Jack's funeral and maybe you can help take the battle to these bastards!!
With deepest condolences,
Adam Wolf

This game supports saving and loading of game data in MEMORY CARD slot 1 only. You can load saved game data from the same memory card or from any memory card containing previously saved URBAN CHAOS: RIOT RESPONSE games.
Controller
Connect the DUALSHOCK®2 analog controller to controller port 1 before starting play. When the vibration function is On, the controller will vibrate in response to game events.
You can reconfigure the controls and toggle the vibration function On/Off in Options mode. All controls used in this manual are the default controls.
Menu Controls
You can select and adjust options from the Main Menu and from the in-game Pause menu (press the START button during play to pause).

Use the directional buttons to view and cycle through the game options.
•
Press the button to select an option, change a current option, confirm any changes made or progress to the next screen.
•
Press the button in a submenu to return to the previous screen.

•
Press the SELECT button to open the Objectives Menu.
•
Press the directional buttons ↑/ to scroll through the list of objectives.
•
Press the button to return to the game.
Objectives are orders that must be completed to finish the mission. The Primary Objective is the key to completing the mission. Complete Special Objectives to win medals, which bring rewards as well as street cred.
Weaponry and other upgrades are available to the best of the best. Emergency Missions are awarded for non-lethal capture of gang leaders. See page 17 for details on rewards or press the button in the Single Player/Select Level screen.
Weapons Training
T-Zero's great strength is taking the fight to the gangs. Weapons, though unpopular among many civilians, are crucial for this task.
The weapons you are issued are not the only weapons you can use. Walk over downed gang members to pick up their weapons, too.
Police Weapons
As a new hire, you're issued the following key sidearms. Other items will be added to your arsenal as you prove yourself in service through completion of missions. Completing Special Objectives rewards you with weapons upgrades and other firepower advantages.
Pistol MK. 1 (Single-Handed Weapons)
A 15-round semi-automatic pistol with excellent accuracy. A cornerstone of any T-Zero operative's armory.
•
Press the button to select the pistol.
•
Press the button to toggle through any other firearms you may have picked up.
•
Press the R1 button to fire a weapon.
•
You can use a flashlight while using a single-handed weapon. Press the R2 button to switch the flashlight on/off.
•
Push in the 63 button to zoom in with the pistol and other selected weapons. This allows for much more accurate shooting.
Use your firearms to shoot out lights, gas canisters and even locks.
Stun Gun
The stun gun is a non-lethal subduing implement, useful for incapacitating suspects long enough for them to be locked up and interrogated. While you may think these scum don't deserve to live, key leaders must be taken alive if you're to gain intelligence on this organization.
•
Press the button to select the stun gun.
•
When you are arm's length from the target, press the R1 button to discharge the stun gun.
Two-seconds discharge will incapacitate most perps. Hold the R1 button longer than that and you might smell roast pork!

•
Press and hold the directional button to review available orders.
Fire Department
The City's firemen are here to assist you in accessing burning buildings and finding your way past barriers. Their expertise allows you to go where others fear to tread.
•
Use the left analog stick to highlight a blocked or locked door, then select the AXE icon to order the fireman to break through.
•
There are other orders, so watch out for situations where quick thinking and team work are required.
•
Select the FOLLOW order icon to get your teammate to follow at a safe distance.
•
Select the HAND icon to order your colleague to halt and take cover.
Police Officers
Regular 5-0 just might save your bacon in a tight squeeze - they're there to help disperse crowds, provide extra manpower and even help out in hostage situations.

Items & Weapons
Smoke grenades
Smoke grenades provide cover so you can get up close and personal with terrorist flunkies.
Riot grenades
Well-aimed riot grenades stun and incapacitate lawbreakers. Their use may count toward T-Zero's non-lethal takedown stats, which could help you win the PR war.
Thermal Breather
You'll need a thermal breather to be able to take control of situations involving smoke grenades and fiery infernos.
Molotov Cocktail
The flaming Molotov cocktail can be hurled long distances and explodes on impact. If its gasoline contents touch you, severe burns, or a savage "flame-on" death can follow.
Cleaver
A meat cleaver may be the sort of implement you've only seen on a butcher's slab, but these freaks use them as casually as fly swatters. Why not give them a taste of their own medicine?
Sawed-off Shotgun
The sawed-off shotgun is just one of your firearms that require two hands to use. It's lethal at close range, so be careful if you come face to face with a Burner wielding one.
Stun gun
The stun gun can inflict a non-lethal takedown of gang members.
Riot Shield
The T-Zero riot shield is made of high-impact resistance polycarbonate, and is designed to protect T-Zero officers against hand-held melee weapons and projectiles.
Flashlight
The flashlight is extremely useful in dark spaces but it can only be used with the pistol, stun gun and other one-handed firearms.
