With March's release of Ominusha, Ring of Red, Bouncer, and Star Wars:Starfighter, we have been seeing the reasons of why we bought this great little black box! Well now we get the pleasure to play a top notch game in Z.O.E. Hey and we even get a MGS2 demo, whoopee! As always this has been a great pleasure to write a FAQ for all my fellow gamers who are looking for a little help. Hopefully this FAQ will give you the info you are needing. Thanks for reading! Please see CJayC's FAQ and Adrenalines FAQs as well, if you haven't already. These are both great FAQs and offer different perspectives of the game. Well the game has been out for quite awhile now (5/24/01) and it has gotten some mixed reviews. I think all and all it has been successful. Sure it is a little short and can get repetitive, but it is still worth the play and it leaves you wanting the sequel, and in this day and age, that is what it's about in the game industry. Demand. I hope you all enjoy this game as much as I did and I hope there is something in this FAQ that helps you out. ***************** *Version History* ***************** Version 1.0 (3/29/01)-Everything you see here.

If they get away from you fire long range weapons to keep it from attacking you. Raptors These are the skinny frames that you see a lot of. They are fairly easy to beat. I love close combat so I like to get in close slashing them till they explode. Cyclops These frames look like Raptors on steroids.

They block a lot morre successively then the others and will counter attack you to death if you are not careful. *************** *VI. Passcodes* *************** Here is a list of passcodes.

Gameplay Tips* ********************* - When in a battle with an enemy squad, try to target the mummy, the fat round enemy, his long range attacks can cause a lot of damage. Keep hitting him before he fires a shot. - Always look out for question marks in the area tags. You can find some much needed sub-weapon ammunition. - I have found that close range attacks are the easiest way to destroy an enemy. I always boost around them while attacking them with my close range attack. Nothing better than boosting behind and pulling off some super cut! - For the first 3 boss fights, move, move , move. This is the best defense. Some of their attacks will miss because you got the boost on and are moving around. Wait for your chance to attack! - If you feel the need to level up or need some sub-weapon ammo go back to area you have already visited and destroy the squads. - Bounder can be best used in closed and tight spaces - Use halberd for destroying porters. - Always Check out areas with "?". In harder difficulities it can get you that much needed ammo! - If you don't know what to do next, try going from area to area and scan through the squads to see if anyone is carrying a passcode. - If you are trying for an "A" ranking, save before you enter a Rescue Mission. That way if you don't get an A you can quit and reload and try again! - Well here is a tip that was emailed to me so I thought I would share it since I need to keep everyone happy! Tyrant: Use boost and circle around him. Then use the halberd and fire right thru his back to the point marked with the crosshairs. The halberd will fire thru him and hurt like hell. After he changes form, avoid him until he tries to ram you. When he misses you with the ram, load up a stationary burst shot (large blue energy ball) and fire it as soon as he is in the centre of your screen. Repeat until either one of you is dead. Nebula: Use the boost shot (MIRV energy beams) until he dives and tries to ram you. Then move in and use Halberd while he's floating around. After he changes form, dodge like hell and fire boost shots. If you hit, move up close and fry him with halberd until he gets bored of getting hit and flies straight upwards. Repeat until either one of you is dead. Neith: Because she's faster than you in close combat, dodge continously and fire boost shots in long range. You'll spot anything she tries to fire soon enough and can easily dodge them. If you don't get careless you can beat Neith with no health loss, even on Very Hard difficulty level. Zombie Neith: Move a bit closer and start rapid-firing comets. She'll try to dodge them, but will eventually get hit and lose a lot of health. Because you're continously tapping the circle button, you'll automatically throw her if she gets too close. SOS: If you challenge one enemy at a time, the others will circle around the town and destroy buildings, so fire up your boosters and round up all the enemies to a single huge battle. If they're trying to get you, they're not killing civilians. Then lead them to a safe combat arena. Suitable areas are the parks in Town 2, the deep canal in Town 1, the canal and the park in Town 3. City 2 is easy, since the only things that can break are windows and the choppers. Just move quickly and finish the weak enemies off in close combat. City 1 can be tricky, because any unattended enemy will try to destroy the pillars, and they break quickly (at least in Very Hard difficulty level). So engage the enemies quickly in close combat, and DON'T do any burst slashes in the immediate vicinity of the pillars. If the SOS area gets any enemy reinforcements, try to get them to join the battle assoon as the arrive. If you've challenged all the enemies at once, you'llspot when the reinforcements arrive by the appearance of the radar circle(s) around Jehuty. Misc: Raptors break easily if you fire normal shots and close up on them, switching to a triple-hit slash combo. The raptor will get hit and fly a backwards, just outside close combat range. Repeat. If you're in a hurry, you can always do boost slashes, but beware of higher level Raptors, because they occassionally have time to do a burst slash or a burst shot on you if you're constantly in close combat. Three consecutive burst slashes can mean death, even on Level 8. Cyclopses can mean trouble, because their counter-attacks hurt. Use the tactic mentioned above to lower-level Cyclopses, but higher level Cyclopses can dodge your triple slash combo and counter-attack. Either kill them safely from a distance with boost shots or try boost slashing them. Just boost _quickly_ away from them if they dodge your boost slash, because you're about to get seriously hit by a counter-attack. Mummies can kill you in an instant if you ignore them and go fight with the other enemy types, because their beams and burst shots hurt. Because they're so slow, you can lure the other enemies away from them and kill them before the mummies close in. Then just fire normal shots to force them to keep their shields up and not firing, and close in to close combat. If they block your hits, immediately do a boost dodge, because you're about to get hit by the dual beams. Thanks to: Stormshadow (Attainer of AAAAA and rank S on Very Hard ****************** *FUN THINGS TO DO* ****************** There is some fun things you can do if you get bored and need a new challenge. -In vs. mode you can take Jehuty at lvl 1 and go against Neith at lvl 8. That could take sometime to beat. Try different combinations and try to win. -Destroy everything you possibly can. Sure you will get a bad rating, but it can be fun and it changes the script a little. Check it out! And now I guess this will bring on a new ending! -Try to go through the whole game with no sub-weapons, except the decoy and sniper. But the hitch is, only fight the enemies that have passcodes, that is it. If you are brave, destroy buildings to keep your level as low as possible. ***************** *IX. Walkthrough* ***************** It's AD: 2172, You are on a Jupiter Space Colony, Antilia. Looks like someone wants to start a fight. Viola is the main antagonist who has come to raise a little hell! You then cut to an FMV of our hero, Leo, running and having flashbacks of him and his friends in a bad predicament. We cut back to Leo running through bloodied streets with bodies in his way. He flashes back to him and his friends and you see a mech killing his friends but he has escaped. We cut back to Viola wanting to disobey orders from her superior. Then back to Leo running through the streets again and enters a warehouse and finds Jehuty, the mech. Here is where our adventure begins! You enter your first battle. Just go ahead and see how the mech works. Get close and use your square button and you should do just fine. After the battle you meet ADA, the onboard computer. She will now take you through a training course on how to use Jehuty. When done, fly over to the metatron orb to fill up your health meter. Now move outside when you are confident of your abilities. When you exit the warehouse you will be greeted with a series of enemies. Use those newly acquired abilities to dispose of them. After that you will be greeted by Viola. This could be a tough battle if you are still having trouble using your abilities. She is fast but soon she will give up and obey the orders to leave at once. After the battle you will be contacted by Elena, at Atlantis. Basically you get asked to transport Jehuty to Atlantis so it can be used in an important mission on Mars. After a lot of begging, Leo agrees to help. Did you really think he wouldn't? The game would be over! ADA now informs you that you need to hook up with the local server and get the function module. Follow her marker to the server and get the monitor.fcmd. This will give you some new battle options. Be sure to go through some training before moving on. You also will receive the Command Menu (Start) -Mission 1- Obtain the flight mode module and move to another area using "Area Change" in the Command Menu. After some training, go out and kick some butt. Find the squad with the passcode. You will get pass_global. When you get that pull up the map (start) and locate a green sphere and then head to the server and obtain the global.fcmd. Once found kill any squads left and grab the metatron orb to replenish your health. Then press start and choose Area Change. Now you are flying high above the sectors of Antilia. We see that Leo's sector is under attack! -Mission 2- Move to TOWN 1 Head towards TOWN 1 and press the circle button to enter. You will see a mean looking machine in the distance blowing up buildings. You know cut to an FMV. From this point on I will not spoil the story of Z.O.E. Sorry! Well here is your first boss. He can be tough but here is the jist of it. Boost around and keep hitting his helmet with the long range burst boost attack. When his health is around 50% he will change form. He know uses three types of attacks, fire balls, little energy needles, and jumping on you. Keep boosting around and use your guard against his attacks. When his head pops out attack like you were before. When it goes back down, put up your guard. Eventually you will defeat him. Now more squads are about to blow up the buildings in this sector. You must quickly dispose of them before they kill innocent people. Here you will get the pass_javelin, needed for your first sub-weapon. When you destroy all the squads, pull up your map and locate the server. Once found you will obtain the javelin.drvr. Now exit the area. Now ADA will give you a detailed description of your mission. She tells you to go back to FACTORY 1 to get the info needed to help you exit Antilia and head for Atlantis. Here you can do your first rescue mission in TOWN 2 or go to FACTORY 1. I am a nice guy so I will do the rescue mission. SAVE **Rescue Mission 1** Go to TOWN 2 Basically you need to destroy all the squads before they kill innocent people and destroy buildings The more they kill and destroy the worse your overall game will be. Try to only engage in close combat so as not to let a long range attack miss and kill people. You will also find the passcode pass_phalanx. When you have finished and received your grade, look for the server to get your second sub-weapon, Phalanx. Exit and Save. -Mission 3- Obtain the info necessary for mission completion from the local server in FACTORY 1 Go to FACTORY 1. Destroy all the squads, especially the one with the passcode, pass_antilia. Once alone, locate the server and get the antilia.info. Now leave the area. ADA will now go into a detailed mission plan. Save when she is finished if you like. **Rescue Mission 2** TOWN 1 As with all rescue missions, kill quickly without letting them kill or destroy. Use the same battle techniques as in RM 1 and you should get a good grade. Be sure to get any sub-weapon ammo you find. -Mission 4- Move to CITY 1 where the colony shaft is located and destroy the EPS relay block. You find that you don't have the right weapon to destroy the relay block. Kill any squads around to get some EXP. When done exit the area to look for the special weapon. -Mission 5- Find long-distance bullet weapon necessary to destroy the relay block. Head to TOWN 2. Here you will get your first look at porters. Basically they open up secrets in the area. Kill the squads before you attempt to destroy the porters. When all clear seek out and destroy the porters. Once done a red item box will appear in the area and inside it is the SNIPER. Just what you need! Exit the area. -Mission 6- Use the newly obtained SNIPER and destroy the EPS relay block. Head back to CITY 1. Kill any squads around so you won't be disturbed in destroying the relay block. Position yourself near the rotating column. Equip you Sniper sub-weapon. See the white dots, those are your targets. By using your right analog stick place the crosshairs on the column and use the sniper to shoot the relays as they go by. Once it is destroyed ADA will inform you that there must be an emergency generator running the EPS. Sounds like another mission to me! Go kill the squad with the passcode pass_geyser. Look for the server and obtain the geyser sub-weapon. Exit the area. -Mission 7- Destroy the power supply facility of EPS.1 and EPS.2. Head over to EPS.1. Destroy all the squads then proceed to destroy all the porters to receive the pass_halberd. Head to the server to obtain Halberd sub-weapon. Move to the satellite dish and you see that you can't destroy it. Pull up the map and you see that there is un underground passage. Enter the underground maintenance passage and head down the tunnel. You will hit an intersection and enter a battle. Now keep going in the same direction. You will enter some more battles till you reach a big room. Fly to the far wall and drop down. Turn around and you will see a big circle. Fore at the center hub to destroy the emergency generator. Now exit the underground maintenance passage. Now exit the area and save if you wish. Notice that CITY 1 has a "?" in the tag. Stop there to get some Sub-weapon ammo, EXP, and the Mummy. -Mission 8- Destroy the emergency EPS generator of EPS.2. Head to EPS.2. Well I can see why some people say this is a repetitive game at times! Kill all the squads. After you have done that look for the underground maintenance passage. When you get in there you see that you cannot get past an energy field. ADA informs you that you have to find another way. When you exit you see some new baddies, S class baddies to be exact. You will receive the pass_control1 from them. Now leave the area. -Mission 9- Obtain the necessary module to get past the EPS.2 energy field. head to TOWN 1. Here you will find some.... bad guys. One squad has a passcode. So fry up some enemies. The ones with the passcode are some "*" class enemies. They have a serious attack! Read the gameplay tips to find out easy ways to keep them from firing. When done you will receive the pass_control2. Obtain the metatron orb to fill your health and then exit. Now head to EPS.1. You can fight the squads if you want or head straight for the underground passage. There is also some sniper ammo if needed. Once in the passage go to that 1st intersection and turn right. Go to the room with the server. Here you obtain the rapt_cntl.fcmd. Now you can operate a Raptor, that isn't effected by the energy field, to destroy the generator in EPS.2. Exit the passage and exit the area. -Mission 10- Find the uncontrolled Raptor to get past the EPS.2 energy field. If you saw the scene when first entering TOWN 2 you saw some mechs laying on a hill. Well one is a Raptor. Go to TOWN 2 and get it. ADA will send it to EPS.2, then you will take control of it. -Mission 11- Destroy the emergency EPS generator. Head to the underground passage with the Raptor, trying not to engage in any battle. Head through the passage. At the first intersection fight the enemy and then head right. Keep going till you find the sever where you will obtain the detector.fcmd. Turn back and you will see some porters. Destroy all the porters. When you get back to the original intersection turn right and head to the room with the generator. You will see a wall blocking your entrance to the room. Position your cross hairs on the box on the wall, it is a weak point. Enter the room and destroy the emergency generator the same way you did to the other one. -Mission 12- Move to MOUNTAIN 1 and meet up with Atlantis. First go to TOWN 2 and get the Sniper and Mummy ammo if needed. There is also an SOS from TOWN 3 **Rescue Mission 3** This is a tough one. Many squads, so try your hardest to dispose of them before anything gets destroyed. Again use only short range attacks. I have yet to get a good grade here!! -Mission 12 cont.- Head to Mountain 1. On the way FACTORY 2 is now available and ADA will tell you it is where she was built. After that you go straight to MOUNTAIN 1. Well here is your next boss. He is a tough one. Go ahead and try to kill it...you can't! Here is proof! -Mission 12A- Avoid battle with the large Orbital Frame located ahead and move to another area. This is easy...exit area! When you exit you see that someone has emailed ADA with the snow-white and seven dwarves virus or maybe that Anna Kournikova.jps.file! You have a new mission now. Be aware, this virus depletes your health to the point that one hit and you are dead! -Mission 13- Find the program in FACTORY 2 necessary for the repair of ADA At this point I will ignore the SOS because of the status of Jehuty. I will attempt this soon and put in a strategy on how to complete this RM in the next update. Well here is a way that was submiited to me by Telrath. "I just wanted to tell you of a way to beat the SOS you get while you have the virus.. there's 3 different squads in the area.. 2 are the close range melee guys who juss lob their missles aimlessly barely ever hitting anything. Take out the first one on the left.. he's the easiest since he's by himself. Than there are juss two groups of 2 left. One is the same unit type and the other is the one that tends to shoot the spray bullets n lasers. First take out the melee ones they should be closest to where you first entered. Then after you take them out you can pull in along the road to the right without having the range units attack you. Then you can just launch a power shot the one where you stand still n punch the giant orb n it should hit both of them into the red if not outright kill them.. than its just a quick shield up n when they pause in their shootings shoot once or twice with your normal gun. You'll eventually kill them without losing any buildings or civs if their/your shots dont stray too much." Go to FACTORY 2 and pull up the map. You see that there is an underground passage! Get there with out going into battle! Ignore the metatron orb in front of you, it won't work, trust me I tried! Head to the passage and enter. You will see two servers but both are red, jettison up and enter a battle with the enemy that has the passcode you need. After you beat it you receive the pass_vaccine. Go back down to the server and get the vaccine.exec to cure ADA. Whew! Go up and fight if you want or exit the area. -Mission 14- Find the module necessary to avoid the laser attacks of the large orbital frame in PARK 1. EPS.1 has a "?"-you will find sniper and Mummy if needed. CITY 1 is under attack. **Rescue Mission 5** Same as always...you know what to do. Head to CITY 2 and you will see on e of the squads has a passcode. Destroy them and get pass_decoy1. Destroy all the porters in the area to obtain comet. Head to TOWN 3 and you see that, well,...you can't see. This brings on a new mission, exit. -Mission 15- Find the anti-stealth module necessary to detect the enemy in stealth. Go to EPS.2 and go see your Raptor you earlier controlled. Find him in the underground passage and you will have to destroy it to receive the detector.fcmd it earlier picked up. When you exit the tunnel destroy the porters to get the pass_gauntlet. Go to TOWN 3 and destroy the stealth enemies and get the pass_decoy2. When done exit and SAVE! -Mission 16- Find the module necessary to avoid laser attacks of the large Orbital Frame in PARK 1. Yup, we are at it again. Go to FACTORY 2. Destroy all the squads and destroy the porters. After you do this ignore the red item box for now and head to the underground passage to input you passcodes to obtain the decoy. Exit the tunnel and go get the decoy ammo out of the red item box. Decoy will give you the ability to put out a decoy of yourself and hopefully the enemy will attack that while you are attacking the enemy. Well let's see if it works. Exit and SAVE. -Mission 17- Destroy the large Orbital Frame in Park 1 Well head to PARK 1 and face your next boss. Make sure to have your decoy up on the Sub-weapon indicator. When the boss locks on use decoy and he will target that. Boost around and keep hitting him with burst shots and use decoys when necessary. When you get him down to 50% he changes form into a little spaceship. If the first stage of this battle was hard...you ain't see nothing yet. He will attack by flying towards you and kicking your butt. Try to boost around him while attacking and guarding. When he comes towards you use a decoy if you have any left and he will fixate on that. It will take time but eventually it you can kill it. Here is a boss tip from Sir Skeletor! Nebula will start this fight off using these little energy beams and this big one hit K.O. laser. Have decoy as your secondary weapon and fly around him using your boost sidways/square technique. When he targets you, press the circle buton and it will stay locked on to that. Go around and hit him with all u got. Keep dong this until he stops and changes form. This is the hard part. He has different attacks in this form which are all pretty easy to dodge once u know how. First is his ram attack. he will charge up and then shoot foward at u. Go up and to either side using your boost. Then when he stops hit him with everything. (Note: Your regular attack barely effects him so try to avoid using it.) Another thing he has are these little energy homing probes that attach to u and suck ur health. To avoid them fly around the boss and he will run into them or shoot them. If they do get u then boost out of it. He will also shoot these little missles which all u have to do is put up ur sheiled to block them and then attack him. Just keep dodging his attacks and hit him when he is finished is the main idea. He is pretty easy but might take u a few tries. That is all on this boss. -Mission 18- Move to MOUNTAIN 1 and meet up with the Atlantis PARK 1 has a "?", go there to get Mummy You are probably low on health, go to another area to find a Metatron Orb if you like or continue to MOUNTAIN 1. Elana will contact you and put you through to Thunderheart. He will take the Frame from you. I won't spoil any of the story here. You need to get to the warehouse. Go to MOUNTAIN 1 to meet up with him. -Mission 19- Fly through the gully along the mountain slope and get from the dam to the warehouse. Head straight and pick up the Metatron orb if you didn't already. Then move to pick up SW ammo. Keep following to pick up more ammo. Go to the dam and fight the enemy and get the pass_bounder. Head up to the server to get your last SW. Head back to the start and turn to the left. Fly to the end destroying enemies as you do so and picking up items. Destroy the wall to get to the other gully. Head right down the gully to the next wall. Blast through and head left and follow it through the gully till the second intersection and turn right. Here you will enter the room that leads to the warehouse. -Mission 20- Destroy the large Orbital Frame in MOUNTAIN 1 Time for another boss fight, against Nebula. This is a tough one but after a few tries you should get him. Nebula likes to move around a lot. He attacks with fire balls and red energy beams. Keep moving and boosting around avoiding his attacks and to get him down to 50% by attacking when clear. After that he will turn into a spider looking thing. Try and shoot his head and he will expose his butt. Now attack it with everything you got, gauntlet, comet, or a boost attack. Keep doing this till you have beaten him. It will take time but you will conquer this Frame. After the battle Thunderheart will contact you and tell you how to meet up with him. You are sent to the warehouse and guess who's there. -Mission 21- Meet up with the civilian freighter Atlantis. Well Viola is here. She is ready to go toe to toe with you again but she won't be as easy. Boost attack her for a bit and then go into close range attack with her. She will get a hold of you and ADA will ask you to eject, but what fun is that? Eventually Leo gets free and time to finish her off. Try to do some close combat with her and defeat her. It's more fun that way! A whole lot of story goes on at this point but I won't spoil it for you! You are off to HUB 1 to disable some bombs. This can be tough but a heck of a lot of fun. ADA will find the time bombs for you. While she is searching kill as many enemies as you can. When she has found one she will tell you. Stop what you are doing and target the bomb and fly over to it. When you get close enough press the circle button and don't let go till the bomb is disabled. Watch the timer till it reaches 0. Now go back to killing enemies till she finds another one. Keep doing this till all the time bombs are disabled. Now you get to fight Viola again. Just get in close and attack her relentlessly like you would the mummies or raptors. Eventually she will fall. There is one last battle but I don't want to talk about it because I feel it is important to the story, and you should have no problem figuring it out. So on that note, we are done here. **************** *X. Versus Mode* **************** After completeing the game you will get access to this little gem. Here you can be any frame you wish and fight one on one with the computer or a friend...or enemy. You can be Jehuty, Mummyhead, Neith, Raptor, Cyclops, Single-Sword Raptor, and Zombie Nieth. Also you get to fight in a lot of the areas in the game. I personally like the warehouse! You can change the levels of your frame in the start-up mode. You can be lvl 1-8. Try and find new ways to enjoy this mode by trying to beat Jehuty(lvl 8) with a Raptor(lvl 1). It's fun and hard! ******************************** *XI. Frequently Asked Questions* SPOILER ALERT!!!! ******************************** Q. Is there a second ending? A. YES!!!! Basically destroy anything and everything in the game. Cars, trucks, buildings, etc. When you go to fight Tyrant in the park the game will end. Check it out, it's fun and doesn't take that long! Q. Hey, I beat the game and it seems that there should be more to the story than this..... does he save ADA, and are you ever able to beat the last boss he is so hard I was at level 8, please fill in these blanks.... A. Well this is the most commonly asked question! Yes, that is the ending, sorry to say, but it does set up the sequel quite nice if you ask me! I can't wait! Q. I can't get higher than level 8! A. Not exactly a question but I can provide an answer to that statement. As far as I could find, you cannot get higher than level 8. I have heard some people say that they have reached level 9, but I don't believe it. I have reloaded previous saves and just kept going from area to area trying to get to level 9 but it never happens! Q. Is there gameshark codes? A. Yes! Look at section XII. Q. Please let me know if I can copy these just for my own use. The game looks wonderful yet there is no way I can do it without a walkthrough. Let me know. A. Yes! You can print it out and use it to play the game. You can even share it with your friends if you like. Just as long as you don't own a store and print them and sell them! Q. About how long do you think it would take to beat the game? A. Depends on how you play. My first time through it took me 6:06 hrs to beat. The second time through, I think 4 or 5 becuase I was writing notes down as I played. Q. I heard if you beat the game 2x, you can unlock 2 more orbital frames and stages, if so which frames? A. Yes, when you beat the game the second time through you get 2 new frames and a couple new stages. You will get Single-Sword Raptor and the Frame Viola used in your last battle. I will get the names down when I mess around with versus mode! Q. I heard there is more then one ending. Is there? And if their is then how do you get it? A. No, only one ending, but if you acheive an A Ranking in all your rescue missions you will get a different ending theme. Q. Where do you get the decoy ammunition when if you run out during the fight against the Large Orbital Frame in PARK 1? A. Well that happened to me the first ime through and you can find the decoy ammo back in FACTORY 2 where you aquired the at first. Q. Is there any difference to the ending depending on what grade I get? A. Based on the grade assessed to your final score, you will receive comments from one of the voice actors: Rank B- Leo Rank A- ADA Rank S- Celphis Q. Can you change levels of your Frame in Vs. Mode? A. Yes, when you select your frame, you will sees some blue bars, move your directional pad left or right to choose your level (1-8). ********************* *XII.Gameshark Codes* ********************* Thanks to JiggaMan14x for sending these codes to me!
