It's modular configuration allows it to be customized to fit any mission profile. Equipped with a flash/sound suppresser and combined with a multipurpose launcher. The SC-20K the obvious choice of weaponary for Sam when infiltrating enemy territory. --------------------- How to use the SC-20K --------------------- Note: Because of the more overt nature of the SC-20K, it will only be required after a few missions when the situation requires it.Sniper Mode: Sniper mode is only available with the SC-20K: Equip SC-20K, press the "Y Button" to enter Sniper Mode, press the "Left Trigger" to hold Sam's breath and steady his aim (For a limited time), press the "Right Trigger" to Fire. Manual Reload: Pressing the "White Button" with the SC-20K or pistol selected will reload the weapon. Sam will automatically reload when out of ammunition. SC-20K's Multipurpose launcher: Pull the "Left Trigger" to fire with the launcher. The Launcher canot be fired in Sniper Mode. Ring Airfoil Projectile A High-Impact, zero penetration projectile designed to incapacitate rather than kill. -------------------------------------- How to use the Ring Airfoil Projectile -------------------------------------- The Ring Airfoil is much more effective if it hits the head.Hit an enemy in the body a couple of times to knock him out.This weapon is very usefull since it is silent. But you do not want anyone hearing the "Groan" from an enemy when you knock him out. If you do the enemy nearby will rush toward the spothe heard the sound, and that will leave another enemy you have to take care of. Sticky Camera A miniature camera with full pan and zoom functionality, Plus night and thermal vision modes. The Sticky Camera feeds it's signal directly to Sam's OPSAT(Pause Menu). Ideal for for advance scouting and intelligence gathering. Sticky cams are reusable. ---------------------------- How to use the Sticky Camera ---------------------------- If fired into an enemies head it will be an Instant Knockout.They are also very useful to use around corners to see what's goingon. Zooming would be a good idea to see down a hall clearer. Also,Try to make sure no other enemie's around while hitting your target if they hear a "Groan" from the other guard, He would rush to where they heard the noise. Making you have another enemy to take care of. ------------------------------ More info on the Sticky Camera, By: Syph ------------------------------ You can shoot them off the walls or wherever you can't reach them. Also, you can stick them onto the helmets of the guy's on the Presidential Palace board the same goes with the diversion cam. If you don't relase the gas you can shoot them off the wall and pick them back up to use later. Sticky Shocker A High Voltage discharge coated in adhesive resin. The Sticky Shocker will adhere to an enemy and give him an incapacitating shock. ----------------------------- How to use the Sticky Shocker ----------------------------- Fired into pools of water, the Sticky Shocker can neutralize multiple opponents. All the Sticky Shocker does is knock out opponents it will not kill them. When there is a single enemy, Shoot the Sticky Shocker at him and it will electrocute him. Just make sure there is not another guard around, or they will hear the "Groan" of the enemy getting electrocuted. And they will rush toward the spot they heard the noise from, and that will leave you another guard to to take care of. Gas Grenade Standard CS Gas Canister grenade can incapacitate groups of enemies. exposure to CS Gas causes violent respiratory seizure. Prolonged exposure causes unconsciousness. -------------------------- How to use the Gas Grenade -------------------------- This is a powerful gas that will quickly knock out enemies. Try not to step in the gas range. If you do, your Health Meter will gradually decrease. This is best to use when enemies are in groups. It would really be a waste of a Gas Grenade to use it on one enemy. Distraction Camera An adaption of the Sticky Camera. The distraction camera has had it's pan and zoom motors as well as its vision enhancement appratus replaced with a noisemaker and a CO2 gas canister. --------------------------------- How to use the Distraction Camera --------------------------------- This device can be triggerd to attract enemies with sound and then dispence a cloud of incapacitating gas when they are nearby. This is a one-time-use camera if you use the gas. You can pick it back up if you don't use the gas. The gas is like the gas canister(Above) it will only knock out, but still leaves you plenty of time to hide the body and get out of there. ====================================================================== 6.Gadgets ====================================================================== SC Pistol The SC Pistol tactical with single-action trigger and a 20-Round magazine comes equpped with a Silencer/Flash suppressor. It's 5.72x28mm rounds offer a good penetration against modern body armor,while keeping the weapons weight, demensions, and recoil at reasonable levels. ------------------------ How to use the SC Pistol ------------------------ This is good for taking out lights, cameras, ect. But it is not that good for taking out enemies, because it is a pretty weak pistol. In the later missions I would prefer using the SC-20K(Above in Weapons section)for taking out enemies. Not the SC Pistol. When you kill an enemy make sure there are no other guards around, Because if you kill an enemy when another guard is around they will hear the "Groan" of the guard you killed dying. Then he will rush toward the spot he heard the noise. And that will leave you another guard to take care of. Lock Pick Standard set to picks, wrenches, and probes for bypassing standard cylinder locks. ------------------------ How to use the Lock Pick ------------------------ Slowly rotate the Left Thumbstick around the outer edge of it's range until you see and hear the first pin begin to move. This means the Left Thumbstick is in the correct quadrant. Keeping the Left Thumbstick in the correct quadrant, wiggle the thumbstick very gently to release one of the pins in the lock. Repeat until all pins are released. Laser Microphone T.A.K(Tactical Audio Kit)A Laser Operated microphone integrated in the SC Pistol that enables the user to read the vibration off of certain surfaces(Mainly Glass Windows). Used to listen in on conversations. ------------------------------------- How to use the Laser Microphone T.A.K ------------------------------------- It is attached to the pistol, You will need it to listen in on conversations. It turns the vibration into sound so you can listen inon conversations. Point it toward the location you need to listen in on. Camera Jammer The Camera Jammer emits microwave pulses that disrupt the characteristic signals used in the microcircuitry of surveillance cameras. The Camera Jammer operates off a capacitor that must be allowed to recharge from it's battery after a short time. ---------------------------- How to use the Camera Jammer ---------------------------- This device jams cameras. When it is not in use it will recharge.This is better to use than a weapon because it will save a couple of shots(And if you miss a few shots). Then you don`t have to worry about wasting ammo on a camera shot. Optic Cable This flexible Cable/Camera can easily be slipped under doors to veiw the other side. Complete with night vision enhancement. -------------------------- How to use the Optic Cable -------------------------- This is good for seeing on the other side of doors. If you see an enemy on the other side, grab your gun, and if he is turned around try to get a head shot. If he is not turned around shoot him anywhere because if you don't, you will be laying down in your own pool of blood. Disposable Pick Unconventional Lock Picks, these Microexplosive-Shaped charges deliver a quick impact to any standard lock cylinder that will shatter the pins and unlock the door. ------------------------------ How to use the Disposable Pick ------------------------------ These are very good if you are trying to get a quick escape or in a hurry. Since you don't have to mess around picking the pins it will just shatter them. But they are only one-time-use. So you won't be able to use them multiple times. Night Vision Headset Night vision goggles amplify very low existing light, especially at the lower end of the infrared spectrum. ----------------------------------- How to use the Night Vision Headset ----------------------------------- Simply press the left direction on the D-Pad, Sam will put the night vision on letting you be able to see alot better in very dark places. It is also ideal to turn them on when it is dark inside to see very shadowy places so you can place a body there. Making it impossible to see without night vision. Thermal Vision Headset Similar to Night Vision, thermal vision is an essential tool in low light situations. The technology differs from night vision in that it captures the upper level of the infrared light spectrum, which is emmited as heat rather than reflected as light. ------------------------------------- How to use the Thermal Vision Headset ------------------------------------- The thermal vision headset is not available in the few first missions.This will also let you see through thin objects. This also helps when it's dark and hard to see enemies. It shows out heat that come off of other body tempatures. And your characters. ====================================================================== 7. Items ====================================================================== Some objects, like grenades, flares, or other miscellaneous objects in the world, can be thrown. To throw an object, equip it and press the "X Button". A series of reticles on screen will show your aiming trajectory. Use the Right Thumbstick to aim and the Left Trigger to flatten or arch the trajectory. Pull the Right Trigger to throw the object or the "X Button" again to abort the throw. Wall Mine The wall mine is a motion-sensitive explosive device that can be attached to almost any surface. To deactivate and pick up a wall mine, wait for the green light. ------------------------ How to use the Wall Mine ------------------------ If there is a red light on, don't walk through, wait for a green light. Once it's deactivated you can pick it up, and the wall mine is yours. Chemical Flare Chemical flares are lightweight plastic sticks filled with a binary chemical agent. When the inner containers are cracked, the chemical agents mix, causing the stick to glow. Useful for attracting and distracting enemies. ----------------------------- How to use the Chemical flare ----------------------------- This is good for attracting enemies, throw it in a dark area, then if he is turned around, grab him. And you have him right where you want him, Around your characters arms. Take him to a dark place knock him out, and get out of there. Emergency Flare Similar to the chemical flare, these standard road flares also emit a great deal of heat, making them useful for distracting heat sensors such as those found on automated turrets. ------------------------------ How to use the emergency Flare ------------------------------ These are good for distracting the heat sensors on the automated turrets. Simply throw one on the ground to the left or right and it will shoot the flare and not your character. So your character can sneak past the turret on the opposite side of where it's shooting. These are also good for distracting gaurds, just use it like the chemical flare. Throw in a dark area, if he is turned around grab him, take him to a dark area and knock him out. Frag Grenade The 14-oz M67 fragmentation grenade consists of a 2.5" steel sphere surrounding 6.5 ounces of high explosive. Apon detonation, the steel sphere shatters,emmitting a burst of high-velocity sharpnel. --------------------------- How to use the Frag Grenade --------------------------- Don't be near when this explodes, when it does it emmits little metal peices from the grenade. Medical Kit Standard feild first-aid kit -------------------------- How to use the Medical Kit -------------------------- You get these off of the wall in sertain places, these don't bring your health points very high, But their good if you have low health. It's better than nothing to use. Bullet Box Find it to retrieve some ammo ------------------------- How to use the Bullet Box ------------------------- It will be for your Pistol or SC-20K, the SC-20K you will get later in the game. It provides a pretty good amount of ammo, but not infinite, So use your ammo wisley. ====================================================================== 8.In-Game Elements ====================================================================== Enemy static defenses present a wide range of potential obstacles to overcome from simple keypads that control doors, to automated turrets that detect heat and movementand fire on intruders. Alarm Panel Standard alarm switches that can be triggered by enemies to alert nearby comrades. Because of the extremely covert nature of Sam's operations, indcretion with alarms can lead to third echelon aborting a mission. Automated Turret Heat and motion sensing turrets with an indipendent friendly fire(Iff) recognition system. Turrets can be hacked from their attached control computer. Either deactivate a turret entirely, or disable it's IFF system. With IFF disabled, it will attack Sam, but it will also attack enemies. Use the D-Pad to navigate in the attached control computer. Surveillance Camera Standard, off-the-shelf surveillance cameras that detect movement and have the ability to directly trigger alarms. This type of camera is fragile and can be destroyed. Armored Camera Exept for the bulletproof casing, these cameras are identical to the standard surveillance camera. Shoot down lights to get past these. Key Pad Lock Standard push-button security pads linked to electromagnetic locking systems in a door. Only the correct code will allow a key pad locked door to be opened. Multiple failed attemts to enter a code will sound an alarm. Select the numbers with the Left Thumbstick. Once you find a key pad code it will appear in your inventory(Pause Menu) in the notes section. Retinal Scanner A locking device that reads the uniqe imprint of a persons retina before unlocking a door. No one without access can open a retinal scanner locked door, but those with the correct retinas can somtimes be "convinced" to open them for you. An incorrect retinal scan automatically triggers an alarm. ====================================================================== 9.Enemies ====================================================================== Kombayn Nikoladze Profile: Using his political, technological, and financial influence, Nikoladze has become the newly elected president of Georgia.His ambition is matched only his industriousness. -------------------------------- How to find Kombayn Nikoladze, By: Syph -------------------------------- Once you have eliminated the guy's down in the basement on the Presidential Palace go back up to the library and go up the elevator instead of going out the door to go snipe Kombayn Nikoladze. You will see two guy's once up to the second floor. You can simply run past them or kill them. It's a glich in the game so they won't notice you. Once you come out of the elevatorgo to your right down the hall where the ammo was on the table. Go through the double doors in the hallway where the two dead guy's are with the grandfather clock. Kombayn Nikoladze will be standing there. He won't notice you because it's a glitch in the game again. You can kill him but you still have to finish the gameby sniping the real Kombayn Nikoladze.' Vyacheslav Grinko Profile: Ex-Spetnaz(Russian Special Forces), Grinko is now Nikoladze's "lieutenant" of the Russian Mafia. Hamlet Profile: Grinko's personal driver. Georgian Colonels Profile: The leadership for Nikoladze's worldwide military/mercenary forces. Several colonels can be found in each cell of the Georgian mercenary army.

Philip Masse Profile: Hired for his vast computer knowlage, Philip Masse is the man directly responsible for the Georgian information crisis. Chinese Officers Profile: The leadership behind the people's liberation army of China. These officers somtimes hold key information that Fisher can use to accomplish his missions. Elimination Might not be the best optionwhen first encountering them. ====================================================================== 10.Sam Fisher Profile ====================================================================== Sam Fisher(The Character you play as) Fisher has been on the front lines of espionage in several defining conflicts throughout the past decades. He has not only survived, but also excelled in the field of covert operations through hard work, insatiable curiosity, and brutal honesty. He has little time for polite niceties and even less for lies. Though fully aware and confident of his abilities, Fisher understands that his survival has often been a gift of chance. He knows he is human and fallible, and he does not want to die. He has a strange dark sense of humor. He is quiet, instinctive, and observant: somebody who watches from the outside. Combat, espionage, and constant training have dfined his adult life; his tactical experience has become part of his instinct. Now, even outside of work he is most comfortable on the fringes of societ, keenly observant but still removed. ====================================================================== 11. Third Echelon Team ====================================================================== Third Echelon's specialists have been recruited from every branch of intelligence and the armed forces, some even culled from civilian life. They are the elite of America's strategists. Hackers, and operatives. Each field operative works with a remote support team of roughly a dozen members.
