===================================DISCLAIMER================================== I have decided not to allow websites other than Gamefaqs (www.gamefaqs.com), IGN (faqs.ign.com) & Gamespot (www.gamespot.com) to host my FAQs from now on. Please don't ask, because I will not grant permission. It's just that too many sites don't keep their version of my FAQ up to date which makes for a lot of hassle in my mailbox. So if anyone sees this FAQ on any site other than those mentioned above, please let me know and I will take care of the situation, thanks. Just to make things crystal clear for some people, this FAQ is not to appear anywhere at the following URLs: http://www.cheatcc.com http://www.cheatindex.com This document Copyright 2004,2017 Daniel Engel =============================================================================== TimeSplitters Timed Secrets (Normal) FAQ December 01, 2017 Daniel (DEngel) Engel dan.engel.2017 [AT] gmail [DOT] com ############################################################################### (A) TABLE OF CONTENTS ############################################################################### Table of Contents (A) This Table of Contents (B) Introduction (C) Basics (D) Walkthrough (E) Experimental ############################################################################### (B) INTRODUCTION ############################################################################### This guide basically outlines what timed secrets can be earned in the game's NORMAL mode, what their restrictions are, and how to get them. ############################################################################### (C) BASICS ############################################################################### The most important thing to remember is to keep moving, and only shoot enemies that are in your path, don't go off and kill the lone guard in the corner who's shooting at you. If you're running full tilt, he won't be shooting at you for long and you'll be long gone. I'll try to be as detailed as I feel is needed for my methods of getting these secrets. *IMPORTANT* The times that I have listed are the slowest times that I've seen SO FAR that work, just to give you an idea of what to aim for. (The actual target time for these stages might be slower than what I have posted here.) ############################################################################### (D) WALKTHROUGH ############################################################################### Bricklayer J. Gastronomy ========= 1935 Tomb ========= Priestess Character (3 Minutes 55 Seconds) Ok this one is actually fairly easy, just keep in mind that speed is the strategy here. As soon as the stage starts run forward and shoot the guard, then quickly go around the right side of the ramp in front of you and shoot the next guard. Now turn around and run to the left of the target area, and pick up the box of bullets. Now run to the entrance of the tomb while shooting the two guards outside. Run down the stairs, kill the two guards and grab the box of bullets. Then run to the nearby pillar and shoot the two guards and the third nearby. Turn towards the medkit and kill the guard there, save the kit for later. Kill the guard to the right of the medkit and run into the nextroom. Kill the guards behind the boxes and run up the ramp, killing the two guards at the top on your left. Walk forward a little and kill the guard on your right and the zombie that just appeared. Now run down the hall and kill the peeking guard on the left. Then follow the tunnel and shoot one of the three boxes to kill all the guards behind them. Quickly turn left and run towards the guard behind the box while shooting him. Then turn around and shoot the other two guards while grabbing the medkit behind you. Now run down the nearby ramp killing all enemies in your path until you reach the mummy room with the medkit. Here shoot the enemy by the medkit, ignore the mummies and run down the next ramp. Kill the enemy down there and work your way through the pillars and down the next ramp. Kill the three enemies in this room, one is in front of you, the other two are on your left when you enter the room. Then rush down the nearby ramp, killing the two zombies that usually appear as you go. Rush down the next ramp, take a right and go down yet another ramp. Here go left at the first opening, and follow the path around, kill the on the way. As you move towards the ankh two zombies will appear so be sure to get rid of them before you grab it. Now its the usual drill with the timesplitters, so just be quick, and strafe a lot and they shouldn't be too much of a problem. Most of them show up at the top of the many ramps on your trip back. Also three will show up at once when you reach the mummy room with the medkit. Following that room you will see a couple of zombies with guns so kill them as you make for the target area. ============ 1970 Chinese ============ Gun Sounds Cheat (3 Minutes 22 Seconds) This one can be a little troublesome so be persistant. As soon as the stage starts strafe left to grab the uzi, then run forward and strafe right. Now shoot the enemy, and the next one that will come running behind him. Shoot the guy in the distance, now step up the stairs and kill the guy on your right. Also shoot the 3 guys through the window, then walk towards the door. Kill the guard that pops out from behind the pillar and shoot the guard behind it near the medkit. Grab the medkit if you need it and run out the door beside it. Kill the guy on your right, then run towards him, pick up his ammo and kill the guy behind the statue. Now shoot the guy behind him at the back wall of this open area, using the statue for cover. Next kill the guy who's peeking out and shooting you ahead. Run towards the opening on the other side and kill the guy just beyond it. Now strafe left through the opening and kill the 4-5 grenade throwing guys in the distance. Strafe past the front door to the restaurant while shooting the enemies inside. Then once you have killed or lured out the two that are moving, rush inside and kill the 2-3 behind the counter. Now run under the balcony on your right, and turn left. You should be able to shoot a guy on the second floor from here. Then back up towards the gong and shoot another second floor guard from there. Now rush up the stairs quickly, turn left, and strafe right so that you will be facing the two guards that come running towards you. After killing them rush down the stairs behind them in the next room. Grab the medkit from the bathroom if needed but make sure you get the body armor in the next room. (It is guarded by a lone enemy.) Then rush back to the gong room and take the other passageway into a similar looking room. As long as you go down the stairs into this room fast enough you should be able to get the drop on two enemies that will come running from the bathroom area. Once they are dispatched, enter this room and shoot the guy on your left. If you need health get it from this bathroom. Then approach the kitchen and shoot the 2 enemies in front of you. Quickly run into the kitchen then back out the way you came. about 4 enemies should now run in front of you, so make short work of them. Now rush into the kitchen and kill the 2 enemies on the left, and the 2-3 on the right using whatever technique you want. Then enter the door on the right side of the room, killing the guy who is waiting in the shadows. As you approach the stairs to the basement, look down slightly and kill the guy below before he notices you. Then rush downstairs and hang a left. Follow the tunnel into a room with about 3 enemies all behind boxes. Shoot them or their boxes to get rid of them and rush to the case at the end which is guarded by one guy. Now the timesplitters show up, the best strategy with them is to strafe a lot. Two or three should show up on your way back to the stairs that lead to the kitchen. Once in the kitchen one or two will show up near the center of the room. So kill them fast, then bolt for the door that is on the same wall as the other one. Open it (press X) and run back to the entrance of the level. ============= 2005 Cyberden ============= Tuxedo Cyborg Character (5 Minutes 0 Seconds) This one didn't give me too much trouble, the main thing is to head straight for switch (computer console). Of course you will want to kill most of the enemies on your way, and be sure to grab the vest at the end of the hall before the turret. Exit the room with the chip and turn right, follow the hall and go through the newly opened door. Now drop down and run straight, then turn around and kill the 2 enemies that will now be after you. Then destroy the turret in the corner of the room. Right near the turret will be another passage, kill the guard here as he is packing a rocket launcher. Then proceed to the chip. Once you have it, drop down into the gap below the rocket's engines. From here, make your way back to the entrance via the ramp near the first turret you saw in this stage. ============ 1950 Village ============ Hick Hyde Character (1 Minute 51 Seconds) For this one, speed is the main thing, but a bit of accuracy helps too. As soon as the stage starts speed towards the docks where the medkit is located. Kill some enemies on your way there as you run by them, and grab the medkit. Now head right, along the rocky area. Shoot the enemies with your shotgun, then switch to your tommy gun as you enter the first tunnel. Head downstairs when you see the opening on your right and continue until you reach the artefact at the end. As soon as you grab it, the wall will open up behind it. Shoot the head off of the zombie in here. Then kill the other two that appear as you head for the stairs. Kill the zombie that appears when you climb the stairs, and shoot the zombie that's not paying attention to you upstairs. As soon as you get up on that floor more zombies will come, and a timesplitter most of the time. So run behind the ledge on your right, and kill them there. Shoot the guy outside and exit the building. Now turn left and run back to the entrance, there are a few timesplitters in this area, so shoot them when you can, and you should make it. =================== 1985 Chemical Plant =================== Infinite Ammo Cheat (1 Minute 15 Seconds) This one was VERY difficult, until I found the right strategy. As soon as the stage starts switch to the pistol. When using it you want to be able to fire it quite rapidly. One trick is to have a finger on each R button then hit R1 and then R2 really quickly after one another. However use whatever works for you. Run straight outand ignore the snipers while shooting the guy behind the crates. Keep running then turn right to nail the sniper. Then look left to kill the guy in the doorway and the sniper above him. By now an enemy should be running towards you so be sure to take him out. Also turn left and take out the sniper, and one of the guards behind him (up high). Now turn right and fire a couple of shots at the 2 guys behind the wall while running towards the crates. Grab the armor and grenade launcher and blast (use the explosive shots with the grenade launcher)the 3 guys that come running from the door back in the main street. Pick up their weapons and quickly kill the 2 guards that will be lurking just inside the door on your left, with the grenade launcher. Kill the enemy that should come running in, then walk where he died and back up fast. Two more enemies should come running so get rid of them. Now run up the stairs, shoot the guy at the top and go left along the catwalk. Follow the U-turn in the catwalk and shoot the guy at the end, watch out for the grenade launcher guard just outside. Kill him and the guard near him, and run into the building. Shoot the guy that will be ahead of you as you enter, ignore the guy on your left. Run past the dead guy and outside, strafe left a bit and run across the hole in the catwalk. Once you reach the door on your left, run inside and grab the case. Quickly exit through the door you came in, drop down to the ground and bolt for the target area. As usual the timesplitters will show up when you grab the case so be ready for them. Occasionally one of them will block the door you came in, so blast him fast and hopefully you'll survive. (Big thanks go out to Dave for the help on this one!) ============= 2020 Planet-X ============= Float Alien Character and Float Alien Bot (3 Minute 38 Seconds) This one is not that difficult to get. From the start strafe left and fall off the end of the ledge. Now turn left and run towards the curving ramp. On your way you can kill 3 aliens, one with a rocket launcher on your left, near the ramp. Make your way up the ramp, and turn left at the top. When you walk forward 3 aliens will appear, kill them and shoot the alien in the cave on your left. Enter the cave and kill the 7 or so aliens inside. Continue through the cave until you see the medkit, a couple of aliens will appear. Kill them before grabbing the medkit. Now go up the ramp in the middle of the room and follow the tunnel outside. Kill the enemies on the way, and eventually the tunnel will end. When you hit this metallic wall, go left. Kill the enemy that appears as you approach the end of the tunnel and make your way down the ramps to the cyberbrain below. As soon as you grab the cyberbrain 4 aliens will appear around you so be quick to kill them. Now work your way back up the ramps to the top. And follow the tunnel into a few brightly coloured rooms. The enemies here are easy to kill, just be quick. Once you reach the end, you will be inside another rocky tunnel. At the end an enemy should appear, work your way out of the short tunnel and around the cliff's ledge to the exit. A couple of timeplitters will appear on the way. ============ 1965 Mansion ============ Overall Mutant Character (5 Minutes 3 Seconds) This one was not too difficult once I knew the order to do things. As soon as it starts use your target to behead the two zombies. Then do the same to the next two that appear. Grab the ammo and run into the next room, killing the zombie that appears in front of you. Reload and kill the other two that show up on your left. Now duck down and kill the mutant that's firing at you from above. Then run forward, shooting the mutant that pops out in front of you. Turn right and kill the zombie down the stairs. Then run down them and kill the next zombie. Turn left and run forward a little killing one or both (depends how brave you are) of the two mutants that pop out. (There is one on each side of the tunnel) Then turn left and strafe right, shooting the waiting mutant. Turn right and walk forward a bit, then kill the zombie that appears in front of you. Now turn left and strafe right once again to kill another waiting mutant. Then turn left and walk forward, killing anohter zombie that appears in front of you. Check around the corner a little and shoot the police zombie. (who has a gun, they all do in this level so take them out FAST) Two zombie should appear nearby, kill them and walk towards the spot where the police zombie was standing. Two more zombies will appear, so kill them and kill the mutant on the stairs above you. Proceed up the stairs and shoot the mutant when he pops up from behind the desk. A police zombie should run out from the left of the mutant, so make short work of him. Grab the health from the little alcove behind the police zombie. Two zombies WILL appear before you grab it so be ready. Then proceed into the house a little more, shoot the mutant that pops out, then back up and hide. Pop out and shoot the zombie who is trying to fire at you from the dead mutant's position. Turn left and strafe right a little, shoot the two ARMED zombies at the top of the stairs. Take out the turret (moose head) in the next room, and the other one just to its right. Now run into the room and kill the police zombie that appears in the corner to the right of the turrets. Run into the next hallway and shoot the zombie that appears. Quickly turn right, and shoot the two police zombies in the distance. Run forward and kill the third on the stairs on your right. Run under the stairs and grab the medkit, then follow the u-shaped tunnel to the other side. Run up the stairs in front of you, turn left and run forward. When approaching the corner, turn right and strafe left, shooting the police zombie just around the corner before he can hit you. Move ahead some more, kill the zombie in the next room up ahead. Then run into that room and shoot the police zombie in the room ahead of this one. Run in there and kill the police zombie in the next room, also kill the peeking mutant who should be right beside him. Strafe left a little and look to your right, kill the other peeking mutant. Now back up into the previous room and go into the hallway, turn right and strafe left, kill the police zombie that is waiting for you. Now grab the health in the next room, and kill the two (armed) zombies at the top of the nearby stairs. Run up the stairs, turn right and walk forward, killing the police zombie that will appear on the right side of the wall. Go to his corpse and turn right, strafe left a little and shoot the mutant lurking ahead. Then run ahead and quickly hide behind the left wall. Another mutant will come running with guns blazing, so strafe right and pop him. Follow the hallway and as you come near the next room one zombie will appear, kill it. Then walk towards the room and shoot the police zombie that appears on the right. Then back up and wait for the two armed zombies to come around the corner, then shoot 'em. You're almost done now, run into the room and to the back wall. Turn left and run to the end of the hall. Shoot the mutant that pops out here, sometimes two zombies also warp in here, so if they show up, show them the way out. Then run ahead, turn left and run for the bones. Two more armed zombies will appear around the item so shoot one, back up and hide, reload and shoot the other. Now that you have the item run back to the room you just cam from. Kill the two zombies that appear and turn right, shoot that zombie. Now run a quarter of the way down the stairs, two armed (and VERY dangerous, most people die here!) zombies will appear, so shoot one and run back up the stairs and to the right to hide. Then reload and take out the other one. Run down the stairs and be ready to shoot the mutant on your left at the bottom. As soon as you kill him, one of his friends will come running, so take him out. Now keep going down the stairs until you reach the exit of the house. Shoot the two timesplitters in the distance. (yeah they're in this stage too remember?) Then exit the house and turn left, strafe right a little and shoot the two timesplitters on the wooden thing above the target area. Now run down the stairs and head for the target area, BUT be sure to have your back to it, because there is a mutant under the stairs who kills many people here. So don't let him get you, shoot him as you back up into the exit. And that is that! ========== 2000 Docks ========== Big Hands Cheat (2 Minutes 6 Seconds) This one isn't too bad once you know the right strategy. As soon as the stage starts switch from the sniper rifle to the pistol. (left on the cross) Then run out from the boxes and forward a bit, and kill the 2-3 enemies that peek around the corner. Then rush around the corner and kill the two grenade chucking enemies behind the boxes. Pick up all ammo and the assault rifles. If it hasn't switched to the assault rifles already you should do so. Run out into the main part of the docks and kill the next two box enemies. Grab their ammo only if you didn't get all of the ammo earlier. Now run parallel to the building with it on your left, but hug the boxes on your right. Now quickly run towards the turret while strafing right, its shots should miss you for the most part. Then run under it, through the tunnel and turn right on the other side. Kill the enemy in the distance, to the right a little, past the building. Then turn right and kill the enemy on the top of the stairs. Run up the stairs, into the building, up another set of stairs and into the alcove in the wall. Take a moment, then turn around and kill the 2-3 enemies that should now be climbing the stairs you just used, to get to you. Now turn around and enter the next room. Rush down the stairs and into the alcove on your right. From here you should kill the 4-5 enemies in the room as fast and safe as you can. Then rush up the stairs at the end of the room with guns blazing. You should kill a couple of peeking guards, then 2-3 enemies will come running around the corner. You can either kill them in the open or duck into the alcove on your left and lure them there. After that rush farther on and kill the enemy behind the box at the end of the hall. Then kill the 3 enemies behind the glass and grab the much needed body armour. Then zip around into the next chamber for the briefcase. The timesplitters will of course start showing up now but you should be ok. Kill the one that appears near you and run down the hall, killing the next one that appears in front of you. Then run down the stairs back into the open room, 3 timesplitters will appear. Ignore them and drop to the floor, then run forward and go through the door on your right. Kill the timesplitter that appears near the metal boxes and take a hard left past the turret again. Turn right after it and go straight, past the stairs, strafe left a little and keep going straight. Once you are at the very end you will see a few soldiers, shoot those in your way while making a right around the metal boxes. Now run straight towards the second turret, kill the guard to the right of it and run towards the wall. Now just run around the corner, past the turret and into the target area. ============== 2035 Spaceways ============== Female Alien Character and Female Alien Bot (1 Minute 3 Seconds) This one took me a few times, mainly to figure out how to shave off 15 seconds. The main thing is speed, so as soon as you start, run forward and shoot the 2 enemies. Then strafe right a bit to dodge the cab while entering the building. Two enemies will appear at the end of the hall, shoot the one on the right while strafing around the right corner. Here shoot another enemy and run up the ramp in front of you while nailing an enemy on your right. There will be an enemy at the top of the ramp most of the time so kill him and rush through the main hall. (Though there is a medkit in the lobby in the beginning of the stage, if you grab it you probably won't make the target time. So if your health is in the red by this point restart the stage) As you approach the door fire an explosive shot at both sides of the door. This will kill the enemies on the other side. Then when the door opens you can kill the two enemies at the end of the room. Keep trudging through the hallways, past the double turret room (don't worry about destroying the turrets), and into the room with the two enemies that are behind boxes. Take a left and when the door opens, rain explosive shots at the door at the other end of the room while running. The may take out the turrets and will certainly make short work of the enemies that usually show up here. Run out the door and up the left ramp. Shoot the 2 stewardesses at the top and do a U-turn up the ramp beside you. Kill the 3-5 aliens that may show up in this room as you grab the duty-free goods. Then run back down the ramp and up the ramp in front of it. Kill another stewardess, and maybe a couple of timesplitters. (Sometimes they're there, sometimes not) And run like hell into your ship, if done right the rocket launcher should miss you with both shots. ############################################################################### (E) EXPERIMENTAL ############################################################################### For a little while now I've had a paypal link in all my FAQs at the very bottom here. Mainly as a small experiment since a few other FAQ authors have also had the same idea. I had a few people email me before I put this link in because they wanted to send money, so it's here for those people. For the record I've received about $87 (which works out to a bit more in Canadian lol) last I checked, so I've been getting cases of pop and making some excellent progress on a few FAQs. If you don't want to send money or can't then send me an email, it's nice to hear what people thought about my work and there's always room for improvement. My email address and paypal address for those that want to contribute are both dan.engel.2017 (AT) gmail (DOT) com Many thanks, and I hope you continue to use my work! ~Dan
