Insomniac is known primarily as a developer for Sony, having created some of
Sony’s most popular franchises throughout the years such as Ratchet & Clank,
Resistance, and Spyro the Dragon. However, Insomniac has since teamed up with
Electronic Arts to create their first multi-platform title ever in the form of
the four player co-op shooter Fuse.

=============
HYPERION BASE
=============

—>CASUAL FRIDAY<—

The first thing you do in the game is a lot of shooting against a large mech
enemy. Get behind cover by pressing B and fire at the mech until another
cut-scene triggers. You can look around in this room if you’d like, but when
you are ready to progress, go to the door and hold Y. At least one other
partner will have to do hold Y as well.

In the next hallway, there will be turrets with laser sensors. If you are
facing the turrets, there is a small room to your right. Sprint to that room to
find a control panel. Interact with the control panel to shut down the
turrets. Under the left turret you’ll find some XP, and you will also find
Fuse Credits sitting on a crate through the door.

Take the elevator down and take cover as the enemies are killed by their own
gunthing. Vault over the cover once the shooting stops and move into that room
now that the glass blocking it off is broken. Loot the room and then go back
out into the hallway and hang a left.

This room will have more XP and Fuse Credits to pick up. These look like golden
bars, basically. Anyway, interact with the control panel in this room to blow
a large hole in the wall. Then you are free to continue. The next hallway
will feature more craziness. Wait for it to subside, and then move through
the now-ruined room to bypass the fire blocking the way. Go into the room
where the shooting was coming from, loot it, and then continue down the hallway
through the next door.

Run up the stairs and open the door with the help of your partners. You will
now have access to your main weapon throughout the game. Each of the four
characters have their own weapon that they will always have now until the
credits roll. To equip this weapon, press “up” on the d-pad at any time. You
are also able to carry two other weapons of any combination (besides “Heavy”
weapons) by assinging them to the left and right directions on the d-pad.

There is a firing range of sorts that you can use to practice with your new
toys. You will be asked to destroy a certain amount of the targets before you
can proceed. Once they are all destroyed, you are free to spend any skill
points you have acquired so far. Each character has different abilities they
can purchase using skill points. When you level up with one character, all the
other characters that you use will be the same level. You won’t have as many
skill points to spend for them, but you are given a few to use. upgrade as you
wish now and if you ever feel like switching between characters, hold back if
you are playing on Xbox 360 and select if you are playing on PS3.

Replenish your ammo using the many ammo boxes in this room after you’re done
messing around with the firing range. The gruop will crowd around the next
door. A control panel is to the left of the door and so hack it to get the
door open.

Annoying little enemies in the next hallway will now make their debut. These
guys can only be described as robot bugs that blow up. Imagine the Tickers
from Gears of War, but in robot form. The best way to deal with them is to
keep your distance and shoot as they are crawling near you. Don’t run up and
attack them, as they will simply blow up, which knocks you back, and if you
get caught in a couple of explosions right after each other, it is very likely
that you will be downed or die.

In the next room will be a couple of automated turrets. If you are playing as
Dalton (so weird typing my own name in a guide), then stand in front of your
buddies with your shield up so that they can use the control panels in this
room to shut down the turrets. If not, AI Dalton (GI Dalton more like it)
should do so himself, allowing you to shut down the turrets safely.

Continue into the next hallway and approach the glass with the politican on the
other side. Speak with him momentarily and he will open up all the doors
throughout the facility. The first door is to your immediate right, so go
through it once it slides open. Loot the rooms that are down this hallway for
XP and stuff, and then go through the next door to move through another
sciencesy room. Keep going and through the next hallway, you will come across a
door that you will need the help of a partner to open up.

You’ll then come out into a large hangar area, and I have to warn you that this
part of the game glitched big time for me the first time I play it. The game
wants you to press Y to get a better look at the helicopters that have flown
into this area, but I highly recommend you don’t do that. Doing so when I
played the game caused my camera to be stuck in position, focused up at the
sky, only able to fire my gun when behind cover and even then only be able to
shoot in one direction. It was awful, but I still managed to defeat all the
enemies using nothing but melee attacks thanks to the smart partner AI in this
game.

But if you don’t come across this glitch (if you do, you can’t continue, even
if you defeat all the enemies and the helicopter because you have to be facing
a different direction, so just reload the checkpoint), what you need to do is
move through the hall, which is circular around the center hangar area, going
from cover to cover and shooting all the enemies. Remember you can pick up
guns, so it might be wise to trade your pistol with one of their more powerful
machineguns.

At the end of the circular hallway, there will be a helicopter that keeps
dropping off enemies. Kill the enemies and then focus all your attention on
the helicopter. The helicopter can only shoot one of you at a time, so if you
are playing in co-op, have everyone be positioned at different areas of the
circular hallway, take cover, and shoot at the helicopter simultaneously. The
person that the helicopter is shooting at should remain behind cover,
obviously, to avoid taking damage.

Once the helicopter is destroyed, you are free to go through the nearby
elevator. Ride it and then destroy the wall in here by placing bombs. It is a
bit amusing whenever these guys use bombs to blow up walls because they stand
right in front of the wall and make no effort to get away from the blast
radius. They simply turn their back to the explosion and take no damage.

Continue through the facility, and next you will be looking into a room full of
enemies. You can hop over the wall and stealth kill a couple of them if you are
quick enough before the other guys notice you. Get behind cover and then clear
the room. There will be enemies on the catwalk above, and they should
definitely be your priority for now since they have the height advantage on
you and can potentially deal more damage. Don’t skimp on grenades either,
especially if enemies are in a cluster.

After the room is clear, everyone will be told to rally at the armory. You
will find new guns in the armory as well as plenty of ammunition. If you want
to switch out your current arsenal of weapons, this is the place to do it.
Otherwise, just keep your current guns, replenish your ammo, and then go
through the door to the next area.

A few enemies will be in the building across the bridge. Kill as many as you
can from this distance. The armory has a few sniper rifles to use to make this
stretch much easier. As you go into that building, a new type of enemy will be
revealed in the form of a Heavy with a flamethrower, so get ready to battle
this new type of enemy.

This enemy is large, armored, and has a tank on its back that powers its
flamethrower. The only way to deal damage is to shoot the tank. The obvious
strategy here is to have one person on the team distract him and lead him away
from the others so they have a clear shot at his back and his tank. Once the
Heavy has been killed, grab his weapon. The weapon is a “heavy” weapon, so you
walk slower with it and switching to another weapon will cause you to drop it.

Go to the elevator. Open it up to reveal a group of enemies hiding inside
waiting to ambush you. Use the flamethrower to make quick work of them and then
once the flames die down, step inside the elevator yourself and ride it down.
This will initiate the second part of the first mission.

—>FUTURE PROOFING<—

First thing you have to do is restore power to the area. Do that by having
someone grab the Fuse Cell and then take it to the designated area. Just a
tip for later on in the game (a protip, if you will), being in the orange
radius of the Fuse Cell will buff anyone standing inside of it, augmenting your
Fuse abilities and making your attacks stronger than before.

The next room is where the game officially teaches you about stealth kills, but
I covered that earlier. Basically, slowly approach the enemy and press Y to
silently take them out. This entire room can be cleared in this manner rather
easily, but if worse comes to worse, a firefight is not that harder to handle.

Walk around the slightly open gate and then climb the ladders. There are
ziplines up here that you need to use to reach the next area. There will be
two enemies with their backs toward you, standing by crates. Get behind the
crates and press Y to pull them over and stealth kill them. If you are playing
in co-op, synchronize this action with a buddy so that you can get rid of both
enemies at the same time and not alert the others that you’re there. If you are
playing in solo, the AI partners should do the stealth kill with you in
harmony.

Now get behind the pile of crates on your left. Wait for the next enemy to walk
by, and press Y to kill him as well. You can then easily sneak up on the other
enemies walking around here and stealth kill them, too. Once the room has been
cleared, pull open the next door, round the corner, and you will be in another
large area with a Fuse Cell.

Climb up the ladder to your immediate left and kill the enemy up here. This
guy has a jetpack, you might notice, as well as a sniper rifle. Have someone
else kill the sniper guy directly across from your current posistion. There
are Fuse Credits over there as well. In any case, get behind cover and take
one of the snipers. Use the sniper to kill off the enemies in this area with
the sniper from your vantage point.

After they are all dead, you are able to safely grab the Fuse Cell. As you
work to transport this Fuse Cell, there will be heavy resistance from enemy
forces. Drop the Fuse Cell and use its buffs to help you easily mow through the
enemies. Take it to its designated area to restore power to the area. If you
are carrying the Fuse Cell and are shot, the Fuse Cell will take damage, and
if the Fuse Cell explodes, you will die.

Fight your way to an elevator and ride it up. Kill the enemies, but ignore the
Fuse Cell pillar for now. Go to the next room and start killing the enemies in
here as silently as possible. Once they’re dead, you’ll find another Fuse
Cell on the first floor of this area. Enemies will swarm into the room, so
stay behind cover and take advantage of the Fuse Cell buffs. Kill the enemies
as they come in, and then take the Fuse Cell back to the pillar. Expect more
opposition as you near the pillar and restore the power.

The next room features a platform that will move toward you with a bunch of
enemies on it. Kill the enemies before the platform gets to you and clear this
large, open area of other enemies as well. Get on the platform and start riding
it. It will come to a halt, with one side of the room covered in snipers and
other enemies. Focus on the snipers first, marked by their jetpacks and the
red laser beams that they use to aim. After you get rid of all of them on one
side, turn your attention to the opposite side because that is where they pop
up next.

The giant robot mech thing from the beginning of the mission will be just
across the way. Fire at him until an explosion makes the platform drop.
Luckily, everyone will grab onto a ledge. Platform your way to safety Uncharted
style and then go through the elevator and ride it until it stops.

—>THEY CAME… THEY SAW…<—

Navigate your way through the halls and you will come across a few enemies just
going about their business. Toss a grenade their way to take them out and then
continue through the hall. You’ll reach flames blocking the path, but there is
a vent to go through behind a crate. Smash the crate by pressing Y to melee
(triangle on PS3), and then go through the vent. Open the grate at the end of
the vent.

This next room is a large, open area with numerous soldier-type enemies as well
as a Heavy with a flamethrower. Kill all the enemies and keep moving forward.
More enemies will show up, but you should be able to wipe them out easily. You
come up to a group of scientists that are about to be burnt to a crisp by the
fire.

Look at the ground and you will see fire extinguishers near the flames that
are blocking the valves. Shoot the extinguishers to put out the fire and then
have everyone turn the valves at the same time. This will put the fire out on
the walkway above, allowing the scientists to move free. In the next room, loot
the place, and then blow up the portion of the wall that is cracked.

Stay behind cover because there will be snipers, regular soldiers, and Seekers,
the little robot bug dudes from earlier. Remember that the key to fighting the
Seekers is to keep your distance and shoot them from afar. In the next room,
blow up the platform by shooting the tanks, then climb the nearby ladder and
use the zipline to reach the roo with your overall objective for this
particular mission.

After the cut-scene, you will find yourself at a severe disadvantage. This
room is also circular in shape, and you are your group start in the middle.
Enemies come in from all directions, and there will also be helicopters to deal
with. Stay behind cover and trust your teammates to cover your back. Kill all
the enemies.

Finally, a boss will appear in the form of the mech that has been stalking you
all throughout this mission. The key to fighting the mech is to basically keep
it busy from all directions. It is powerful, and it will zoom and stomp you,
which will immediately knock you down into “revive” mode. The mech also will
fire machineguns and missiles. When he is about to fire missiles, you will be
tipped off by the indicators on the ground that appear.

Kill the mech to complete the mission.

==============
TRITON OUTPOST
==============

—>WORMS IN THE APPLE<—

You start this mission with all your weapons, including the fancy ones, having
been taken from you by your captors. Exit the cell and then go through the
grate on the ground. Crawl through here, and then when it opens up, another
yellow grate will be clearly visible. Go to it, crawl through, and then keep
going until you reach a ladder.

Climb the ladder and then take out the lone enemy up here and take his gun.
Drop down and silently take out the other enemy down here and then continue to
the next room. Stay behind cover and watch the scientists and enemies in here.
Go to the right, behind the machines, loot the Fuse Credits sitting on the
crate at the end here, and then go up the steps. Take out the enemies here,
silence is preferred, and maker you way to the next vent that you need to move
on through.

This vent opens up into a bathroom with a dude taking a leak. Drop down and
break his neck to get an achievement. Take cover and look out into the next
hall. there wil be enemies in the room. Zip over and take cover by the
reception window. Wait for the other enemies to be looking the other way and
then you can stealth kill the enemy by the window.

Go around the corner and silently take out the enemy standing here. Go into
the room, take out the enemy, and then you’ll have your neat weapons back! Yay!
Now the next room is a large cellblock with enemies literally coming out of the
woodwork. This is a long, drawn-ot section of shooting, but keep pushing
through until they’re all dead and you can go through the next door.

A turret is facing you and will be firing. Toss grenades behind the turret and
flank them by hugging the right wall and climb up the ladder. At the top of
the ladder, more enemies will flood in from a nearby door, so kill them and
then kill everyone by the turret. Once everyone on this side of the room has
been killed, take control of the turret yourself.

Now that you’re in control of the turret, you can use it to kill all the
enemies that start coming into the area. You can fire rockets, but it’s better
to just use the regular machinegun blasts as the rockets take foreve to
reload and they are just kind of pointless. Kill all the enemies in the room
with the turret until your partners let you know that that’s it. Get everyone
together to lift up the shutter, and then hack the terminal in the next room
to get a map of the Outpost.

A cut-scene will play, and when it’s done, there will be a large new Heavy
enemy. This guy has a weapon called the Behemoth, which is a large gatling
gun that you can carry around. The strategy for defeating this guy is the
same as fighting the other Heavy. The main difference is that this enemy is
tougher, smarter, and also will deploy flying turrets. You can destroy these
turrets easily with just a few shots. The strategy for all Heavies apply for
this guy as well.

Grab his weapon and start mowing down the enemies in the next couple of rooms.
You will then reach the cargo tram docking area. This is a huge room with a
ton of enemies as well as Heavies. If you are smart and use cover as well as
play off each other’s special abilities, you should be able to clear this room
without too much of a problem. Keep an eye out for Snipers, as they will be
the most dangerous, besides the Heavies that spawn here.

Once the tram finally arrives, clear it of enemies. Rally with your group at
the designated blue rally point. Get behind the turret and ride the tram. When
the tram comes to a stop, kill everyone with the turret and then hop off of it
yourself.

—>AND I GAZED INTO THE ABYSS…<—

Gather the ammo and stuff as you like before proceeding into the next room.
The next room is fairly uneventful. It is just another large open room with a
bunch of enemies. The gimmick here is that you have to turn valves to drain
the coolant system of water that fills it. Kill everyone, turn the valves, kill
the new people that show up, and then repeat until you are able to drop
through the floor into the coolant system tunnels.

At this point in the game, you will start noticing people having
hallucinations. If you are playing solo, you can avoid these hallucinations by
quickly switching to another character, but they are fairly irrelevant in the
grand scheme of things. They provide cool little insights to each of the
characters (I believe Isabella’s hallucination occurred at the beginning of the
mission and Jacob’s on the tram), but they are irrelevant from a gameplay
perspective and are very passive events.

As you move through the cooling system, Seekers will swarm the area. Kill them
all and then once you reach a moving fan, stop and wait for the rest of the
group to catch up so you can drop through and continue into the next room. This
room features a bunch of shielded enemies. Enemies with shields are best dealt
with by throwing a grenade behind them. This will cause them to turn around to
block the explosion, leaving the exposed to gunfire. And if they don’t turn
around, they will likely be blown up by grenades.

Once all the enemies in this room have been dealth with, place explosives on
the four designated machines. Blow them up and then continue to the reactor
itself. Use the yellow railings to platform your way beyond the lasers and
over to the control room. Pull the lever on the control panel to sabotage
the Fuse reactor and get some bonus XP for your troubles.

Now head to the labs. You’ll go through another large room full of fun enemies,
so kill them. Use controls to summon the platform, but it will get stuck. Shoot
the explosive canisters there to blow it up and then use the zipline to get to
the next area.

The next room features even MORE enemies, including ones that rappel down
walls. Be quick to kill these guys before they get on their feet because they
have shields, and you are able to kill them much easier before they are able to
land on the ground and use their shields to block your attacks. Fight your way
to the elevator and ride it.

—>KICKING THE HABIT<—

Make your way to a room with an invisible fellow lying on a table. Pull the
switch if you want to make him visible. Then continue through the door. A new
type of enemy, an invisible enemy, will make itself known in this room. They
charge you and they will put you in a chokehold and drag you away. You can tap
A to avoid dying as quickly, but you need your partners to shoot these guys
off you in order to survive.

In the next room, you’ll fight the invisible enemies mixed with regular enemies
that you have dealt with before. Kill them all and keep moving forward. The
floor will open up and you’ll see a bunch of rotating handles. You can climb
around thes ewalls using the handles. Make your way to the middle and drop down
as far as you can go. Don’t worry about hitting B to see if you can drop
because you can’t fall down if there’s not a ledge to grab.

Once you reach the bottom, right below a deep yellow bar, you can climb around
it to the side and drop down. Now focus your attention on the Fuse canisters
powering the lasers. Firing at them quickly enough until the lasers come down
and kill you. Once all the canisters have been destroyed, use the time where
your buddies are talking amongst themselves to loot the place and then open
the next door.

Interact with the control panels in the following room to initiate a…

!!!BOSS FIGHT!!!

Yup. A giant dude appears and he is incredibly dangerous. He has two main
attacks. He will shoot lasers out of his palm and drag the laser across the
area. You can avoid the lasers by getting behind cover. His other attack is
that he shoots a wave of crystals. These have to be avoided by running to the
left or right to avoid getting hurt. You really need to take advantage of your
special abilities to be successful during this tough fight.

The boss has giant glowing orbs on his chest and body. Focus your fire at these
orbs. Every time you destroy one of the orbs, he will be staggered, which will
give you more time to shoot the other orbs and repeat the process. The toughest
part by far is getting the first orb destroyed, and then the rest is much
easier, especially considering your partners should be shooting the other
orbs anyway.

After destroying all his orbs, you’ll be snapped back to reality. But the
gravity is fine. Destroy the Fuse cores that are hanging by his pod. There are
two, but you can only destroy one at a time, so focus your fire on just one of
them for now.

Once it’s been destroyed, you’ll have to fight him again in his giant form,
but he will now summon mercenary enemies to help him fight. It’s a good thing
they all spawn in the same area because you can just lob grenades at them to
get rid of many of them at once. Destroy all the orbs on his body this time
around to get back to the “real” world.

In the real world, there will be invisible enemies and other enemies that
attack to distract you from damaging the Fuse core. Get rid of them and then
destroy the second Fuse core. You’ll then have a final battle with his giant
form, and then you can shoot his regular human form once you come back and
kill him.

Pull the lever and now start fleeing the facility. It’s basically a straight-
shot. Debris will sometimes fall from the ceiling and stuff to block your path,
but platforming over them is easy enough. Enemies will sometimes show up, but
they are easily to kill. You really just need to make sure you’re constantly
making your way to the escape pod because this part of the mission is timed.

To Top

============
SHENG ISLAND
============

—>MATCHES AND AN OLD FLAME<—

You begin this mission on the coast of a beautiful island. Unfortunately, you
have to follow the path back into a depressing-looking submarine base. Kill
all the enemies in here and move through the base to get on the other side of
the canyon. Use the zipline to get across the gap, and then use the ledges that
are sticking out of the cliffside to climb your way up to the helipad.

A new enemy type is introduced in this mission. They glow blue, and anyone that
is standing in their blue radius will be constantly healed. Use your special
abilities to take them out more effectively. But before you just run through
this area guns-blazing, you should at least try to lower the enemy count a bit
by utilizing stealth kills. A helicopter will also be in the area, so have fun
with that.

Continue into the building and fight your way through room after room of
enemies. You’ll deal with all sorts of enemies that you’ve been fighting with
so far throughout the game, so there will be no real surprises here. You will
eventually reach another cracked wall that can be blown away with explosives.
Blow a hole through the wall so that you can proceed.

Climb using the yellow ledges to guide you. Go through the tunnel and you will
see a jetpack-equipped enemy with his back turned. Kill him, but you will be
noticed regardless. Stay behind cover and just let the jetpack guys fly in.
They will usually land just close enough for you to quickly kill them with a
melee attack and get back into cover quickly.

Kill any remaining snipers in the distance and any other enemies that are
charging through the water. Once the coast is clear, go through the water
yourself. Enter the next building, view the scene, and then afterward loot the
area dry of its weapons, ammo, XP, and Fuse Credits.

—>ALL WAR IS DECEPTION<—

The group will be separated in two. Naya and Isabella are in one group, whereas
Dalton and Jacob are in the other group together. The differences between the
two different areas are really sort of arbitrary. Jacob and Dalton will move
on the ground, whereas Naya and Izzy move on the rooftops. Personally, I think
the Izzy/Naya section is just slightly tougher, but not by enough to make a
significant difference.

Push forward through the enemies to eventually regroup in the courtyard area.
The lady that Dalton has a history with will show up in a large flying mech
thing. Fire at the mech. At this point in the gae, it doesn’t matter where you
shoot it, just shoot it anywhere to deal damage.

After it is destroyed, you can continue to the main courtyard area. There you
will fight more enemies as well as an Enforcer mech like that the one you
fought as a boss a couple of missions ago. This time the fight is slightly
tougher, but only due to lack of ammo in the area and the fact that the mech is
able to use the rooftops to its advantage.

Fight the mech using the same strategy as before. You should still be able to
defeat it without too much hassle, even if there aren’t a whole lot of ammo
boxes in the immediate area. Once the mech has been destroyed, a hole is blown
into the ground, so hop through.

—>A BAD BREAKUP<—

Move through the jungle area. Kill the enemies across the bridge and then keep
moving forward. Drop through the yellow grate on the ground. Make your way to
the other side and fight the enemies here. Remember that staying behind cover
is key to survival in this game.

Move through the next grate and then a swarm of enemies will start swarming
into the area. Defeat these Raven mercenary forces as they file into the
building. Once the ones inside the building have been defeated, rush to one of
the two turrets on the other side of the building.

On the turrets, slaughter the waves of enemies rushing the compound. Destroy
the helicopters that appear, too, using the rockets. A flamethrower-equipped
Heavy will show up next to crash the party, so to speak. Defeat the Heavy and
then you are able to use the elevator.

Fight your way over to the missile. Just like the end of the last mission, you
are timed for this mission. There are multiple floors of clamps that you have
to destroy. Go to the yellow grates that are blocking the Fuse cores that power
the clamps. Open the grates and then shoot the cores to cause the clamps to
close around the missile. There are two Fuse cores to destroy on each level.

You will then be able to ride the elevator up to the next floor with more
clamps. Destroy the Fuse Cores to get the clamps to close around the missile,
and defeat the waves of enemies, just like before. Keep doing that until you
successfuly clamp the missile and then reach the top of the silo.

You now have to fight Meilin in her flying mech again. Meilin will shoot a
volley of missiles as well as machineguns. There are three weakpoints on her
mech. They are her two wings as well as the center of her ship. Focus on one
part of the mech at a time to deal damage. Other enemies will show up,
including the healers that you will need to focus on immediately after they
show up. Destroying parts of Meilin’s mech doesn’t do anything besides damage
her ship from a cosmetic perspective, by the way.

Once Meilin is defeated, it’s mission accomplished.

RAVEN FACILITY

—>THE LONG ROAD IN<—

Finally, a change of scenery! And quite the change, too. Welcome to the
cold-ass mountains of somewhere. Climb along the ledges and make your way to
the zipline point. Use the zipline to reach the next area and then climb up to
the ledge above. There are two enemies here. If you are playing in solo, you
can only execute one, but if you are playing in co-op, stealthily take out both
of them.

A laser grid and a turret block the next doorway. Facing the door, go to the
right to find a jeep. Climb up to the top of the jeep, and then you can use
the pipes to shimmy along to the left. Keep going and wait for the red lasers
of the turret to be out of the way before dropping down on the machine below.
On the side of this machine is the control panel that will turn off all the
security systems out here. Check the crates nearby for Fuse Credits and then
you are ready to head inside the building.

Approach the bottom of the platform and wait for everyone to get into position
to begin riding it. Pull yourself onto the platform and then take out all of
the enemies that are riding on it with you. The transport will take you by
buildings filled with enemies and the like, but luckily there is an ammo box on
this thing so you can keep replenishing your ammo.

Eventually, it will reach a point where you are split up. Izzy and Dalton have
to sabotage the Whistlers, the flying mech things that you fought earlier,
while Jacob and Naya stay on the transport to provide extra cover. Fight your
way to each Whistler and place the explosives on the red fuel canisters that
are connected to them.

You then return to the transport and be all together again. Jetpack-equipped
snipers will start making their way to the transport. Keep fighting them off
to the best of your abilities. You will then reach a facility in order to get a
new transport. Fight your way through this building to get to a new transport
that is identical to the other one, and hack the controls to use it.

This transport ride plays out similarly to the previous one. The main
difference is that your competition will be much heavier. You have to fight
another Whistler. Once that is defeated, another transport will come up to the
side of yours. Kill everyone on it and then your people will automatically
wind up there after a cut-scene.

Get behind the turret sitting on the truck. Blackbird helicopters will swoop in
to cause problems. Blast them away with the turret. When the fighting dies
down, just stand still and wait for a set-piece to occur, which will then
trigger another cut-scene. After that’s done, start climbing up the cliffside
that you are near. Just follow the ledges that are covered with snow and you
will easily make your way across the cliffs over to the Raven Facility.

—>NO HONOR AMONG THIEVES<—

Start making your way to the facilty. You can easily stealth kill the enemies
by bouncing from cover to cover as you get closer to the facility itself. Fight
your way to the control room. There is a crack in the wall that you need to
blow up to get to the controls. Pull the lever and then climb up the ladder in
here.

Kill the enemies and then start climbing up the ledges. The lever you pulled
turned off the fans so you can enter the ventilation shaft. Get to the grates
and then you can cut your way through the metal. Continue through the shaft.
Look for a ventilation grate on the sides of the shaft, and you should be able
to find one without too much effort. Drop into the room.

Fight your way through the facility. You’ll reach a grate that you have to drop
through, but otherwise it is just room after room after room of fighting
enemies. Kill them all and then keep moving forward. Eventually, you will wind
up trapped in a room with poison gas and a timer on the right side of the
screen.

Quickly go to the control panel in here. Activate the control panel to convert
an Enforcer in here. Now the Enforcer will shoot a hole in the wall and it will
continue following you throughout the facility, helping you go through the
next few rooms of enemies. Yes, there’s a lot of shooting and going from cover
to cover. Since I don’t want to feel like I’m just rambling on and telling you
to keep shooting, let’s review the type of enemies you’re going to encounter
throughout the facility and some strategies.

The regular mercenary type enemies require obvious strategies, but there are
blue ones that will heal anyone within the range of their blue healing radius.
Xenotech weapons, the weapons that are unique to each character in the game,
are the Xenotech weapons. Use them to defeat the healing enemies and then
focus on the other enemies in the area.

Mechs will show up from time to time, but your Enforcer will help you fight
them. Remember to fight the enemy mechs, or “Heavies”, you need to focus on the
tanks on their backs. You can damage them without shooting the tanks, but it
takes a lot longer to defeat them this way. That being said, if you have a
clear shot, you might as well be taking it, regardless of if the tank is in
view.

Seekers are the little robot bugs that blow up. The strategy with them is to
just back away as far as possible and shoot them as they come and well before
they can explode. Invisible enemies rush your team and put them in chokeholds.
You have to shoot them off your partners, but if you can’t do it, the game
won’t end. Eventually, after hitting A (X on PS3) long enough, they will break
free of their hold themselves.

Eventually, your Enforcer will be destroyed. Keep fighting your way through
the mass waves of enemies until you wind up outside.

—>THE BETRAYAL<—

Listen to the chatter on the radio and then move forward to the compound of
buildings. There will be a fence in the way. Backtrack a bit and you should
notice a path on the left through the woods. Go through this path to reach the
compound of buildings on the other side of the fence.

On the other side of the fence, you will fight a ton of enemies. Kill as many
as you can from a distance. You can shoot some through the windows, plus there
are a ton of enemies on the roof. Kill them all, and then you will have to
fight a fire mech and a mech with a gatling gun simultaneously to finish up
this wave of enemies.

With these enemies defeated, you can move through the hangar. On the other side
of the hangar, a cut-scene will play. Now fight your way to the radar platform.
You move through a room with a lot of weapons and ammunition everywhere.
Obviously, take advantage of these supplies, because there is yet another boss
fight coming up.

Get to the platform and kill everyone there. Then a giant ship will swing into
view and initiate a fight. This is like a super-powered version of the
Whisperer flying mech things. The beginning of this fight will give you a lot
of cover, so take advantage of that fact while you can.

The ship has three weakpoints, which are the two wings and the center of the
ship. It will fire missiles and machineguns. The ship will also shoot mines
that create fairly massive explosions that deal a lot of damage. You are able
to destroy these (timed) mines before they blow up, so do that as soon as you
see them.

Otherwise, treat this fight just like you would the fights with the Whisperers.
The cover in the area will be destroyed as the fight goes on.

==================
JODHPUR STRONGHOLD
==================

—>THE EXTRACTION<—

As you move through the jungle, you will see three enemies. One is behind
cover, the second is walking back and forth, and the third is standing at the
top of a cliff. Get the one standing in front of the cover first, but wait for
the patroling guard to be looking the other way. Then take him out, and then
shimmy along the cliff so you can take out the enemy at the top.

You’ll then reach a building that is crawling with enemies. Kill them all and
follow the objective markers to the zipline point. Use the zipline and then
move through the tunnel. Lift up the gate at the end of the tunnel. You’ll need
the help of everyone in the group, so hang tight if the others haven’t caught
up just yet.

In the next room, you will see that the way is blocked by laser grids. Use the
pipes to get behind the first set of lasers. Drop down behind them and then
use the control panel to switch off all the lasers in the area. Then use the
pipes to climb back up and you can continue outside.

Outside, the older enemies you’ve been fighting for the game will be duking it
out with newer, more powerful, and smarter enemies than before. Just attack
them when you are done watching them shoot each other and make your way
through the courtyard. Cover is your friend, remember, as you fight these
guys. If you haven’t upgraded your characters in a while, take the time to
zip between them and upgrade them.

New enemies will also be introduced here as well. They have shields, but their
shields are powered by Fuse and they are much more powerful shields. They are
green, and you can’t destroy them or shoot through them. To effectively defeat
them, have someone on the team distract them while someone else flanks.
If you get desperate, chuck grenades, and if that doesn’t work, you can run up
and melee them, initiating a sequence that will cause them to lose their
shields and allow you to defeat them.

As you make your way into the building, you’ll see another skirmish between the
two opposing forces at a diner table. Get behind cover and wipe them out. Then
go through the building. Back outside, enemies will pop out from behind the
large wall. Kill them, and then use the ledges sticking out of the wall to
climb to the top of the wall.

Moving through this next courtyard, helicopters will drop off enemies, plus
you have to fight more mechs. A new, more powerful type of mech is introduced.
This guy can teleport from place to place, plus he shoots rockets. The weapon
that is dropped when you defeat this mech is called the Titan and it is very
powerful. Use it to defeat shielded enemies easier.

Kill the enemies. Make your way into the building. Fight your way to the
designated area on the floor. Drop through the floor.

—>UNINVITED GUESTS<—

Use the pipes to get out of this tunnel area. You’ll reach a yellow grate, so
pull it off and move through the ventilation shaft. Kick through the yellow
grate, and then take out the lone enemy in here from behind. You can take out
the enemies in the next room with stealth, but the room is going to be
swarmed with enemies anyway, so it shouldn’t be a huge concern.

As you near the middle of the room, enemies will burst through the glass on
the ceiling and rappel into the area. There’s a lot of room to maneuver around
here, so this fight, while long, at least offers a bunch of options. Kill the
enemies, and then a mech will show up as well. Focus on getting rid of the
human enemies before turning your attention to the mech.

After the mech is dead, grab the Titan. Go up the steps and as you move through
these halls, a bunch of shielded enemies will show up. Use the Titan to make
quick work of them. You will then reach a room with a cracked wall, so use
explosives to blow it up. Be sure to pick the Titan back up again and go
through the hole.

Go through the next door to reach a room filled with lasers and turrets. Have
Jacob disable the turrets and then have someone else use the bookcases to
get on the other side of the lasers. Jacob should be ready to disable the
turrets if they come back online. On the other side of the lasers, you will
find the control panel to disable the security systems, leading to an elevator.

A ton of Seekers will come crawling out of the elevator. Whoever has the Titan
needs to shoot it immediately to kill them all with a single shot. The next
room will have a fire mech with its back turned to you, which leaves its tank
exposed. Blast the tank with the Titan if you have any shots left, and then
clear the room before continuing.

—>FAMILY REUNION<—

Wait for Luther to get rid of the door. Luther joins your team as a fifth
member. This means he is able to die, which will result in a failed mission,
and this also means that he will help out. And thanks to this game’s mostly
great AI design, Luther is actually pretty helpful.

Fight your way through the rooftops to the pavilion. There will be plenty of
times when helicopters drop off enemies. It may be tempting to shoot the
Blackbirds, but there is no way you’ll blow them up, even if you unload
multiple clips into them. Just focus on the enemies that they drop off.

Finally, you will reach the pavilion, and with it, two turrets, helicopters,
and Whisperers. You’ll be bombarded with missiles at numerous occasions. Use
the turrets to destroy the Whisperers. When you roll away from the turrets to
avoid the missile strikes, the AI has an annoying habit of taking control of
the turrets.

When this happens, just keep shooting them from the ground. There are two
ammo boxes in the area. Use the ammo boxes to replenish your supplies as you
continue the fight. Eventually, the ships will blow up. Also keep in mind that
the missiles the turrets can shoot really aren’t that helpful because the ships
can easily avoid them.

===============
GRIGORI STATION
===============

—>ONE WAY TRIP<—

IN SPACE! Yes, Fuse goes to space in this mission. The mission begins showing
off your new space suits. From there, you have to platform your way deeper into
the space station, stealth kill a few enemies, and then you are in a room with
conveyor belts that are transporting crates.

This section of the game is somewhat annoying due to the healing enemies here.
Focus on them before worrying about clearing out the rest of the room. After
the room is cleared, go through the next door to be in yet another room that
is, yes, filled to the absolute brink with enemies. This room has a lot more
snipers than the previous one, so take them out.

Now make your way to the tram area and kill all the enemies there. A few
mechs will pop up to make your life even more annoying, and starting in this
mission, the mechs will sometimes have shields. To deal damage to them, you
have to hurt them enough so that their first health meter is depleted, which
represents their shield, and then you are able to deplete their actual health
meter by shooting at them. Their shield can regenerate if you don’t kill them
fast enough, forcing you to drain their shield again before you can continue to
attack them.

Grab the Titan that is dropped and then board the tram after it arrives. Kill
all the enemies on the tram. Use the control panel on the tram and hang tight
for the ride.

—>PEACE, IN PIECES<—

Stay inside the tram. The glass will be broken, and this provides a good
vantage point to fire the Titan out at enemies. Exit the tram once you feel
ready and push your way forward through the absolute mess of enemies this
mission throws at you constantly.

Kill them all and make your way to the grate to another shaft. Rip off the
grate and then make your way to the designated area on the floor. Burn through
the floor. Drop down and then loot the room here for Fuse Credits. Head out
into the next room to find some lasers blocking the way.

A crate will be in the middle of the lasers. Hop over the crate to avoid taking
damage from the lasers. Have Jacob disable the turrets long enough that you are
able to sprint to the ventilation grate. Rip it off, and then crawl through the
vent to come out on the other side of the second laser grid. Use the control
panel on the wall here to disable all the turrets and continue into the next
room.

After a spout of zero-gravity, continue to the loading bay. As you can probably
guess, the loading bay is filled with enemies, and it is yet another section of
a ton of fighting. Use the control panel in here and then dig in your heels
and start killing all the enemies in the room.

Mechs will be the exclamation point of this battle. But once they have all
been defeated, you are free to use the freight elevator here. Pile everyone on
the freight elevator and use it to reach the next room. Also, you will reach
another cut-scene.

Go through the next few doors to get the Fuse core. In the next room, kill all
the enemies and then take the core to the designated location, just like you
did in the first mission. You have to do this twice. Keep the Fuse core down
and then clear out the room before taking the core to its designated location.

Then make your way to the control room. Use the controls, and then go to the
elevator. At the end of the elevaor ride, you will have a timer pop up on the
screen. Push forward and kill the enemies. Get to the four person controls,
kill all the enemies, and then have everyone press their button to reprogram
the satellites.

—>FOR THE GOOD OF MAN<—

Kill the enemies. Make your way through the next doors and hallways as
indicated by the objective markers. In the next room with enemies, they will
have their backs to you. This allows you to silently take out most everyone in
the room. Three Healers will be in this room, so kill all of them. and then
turn your attention to the other enemies.

Use the control panel and go to the elevator. A laser grid is blocking the way.
Take a left down the hallway to find another ventilation shaft to move
through. This will, as expected, put you on the other side of the laser grid.
Use the control panel to shut down the lasers, and then go into the next room
and immediately get behind cover.

This is the last room filled with regular enemies. Kill them all, but it’s
going to take a long time. Then in the next room, you have to fight three
mechs. At first, there will only be two mechs. One will be a mech equipped
with a machinegun and a shield. The other mech is the one equipped with
rockets.

The rocket-equipped mech will retreat to the back of the room and lob rockets
at you and your team from afar while you deal with the shielded mech. Get rid
of the shielded mech first, and then a fire mech will replace him. Use the
gatling gun dropped by the shielded mech to kill the fire mech. Then drop the
gatling gun and pick up the flamethrower. Use the flamethrower to kill the
rocket mech and grab his Titan weapon after you do so.

Interact with the panel in here. Now make sure you have your Fusion ability
unlocked before you go on to fight the final boss. You probably already have
purchased this Fusion ability with your skill points, but if you haven’t, or
don’t have enough, go to Echelon Mode and fight through a few waves of enemies
first, because this final boss is going to be incredibly difficult if you
don’t have Fusion.

Fusion will allow you to revive yourself instantly, gives you unlimited ammo,
and it also makes you invincible. You can purchase othe skills that will
provide team advantages as well, such as healing all your teammates completely.

The final boss is a giant mech that flies around, shoots missiles, and also
shoots lasers that result in being downed automatically. He has a shield as
well, so you need to use your Xenotech weapon to deplete his shield. You have
to deplete his shield a total of three times. After depleting his shield for
the first time, you can keep attacking him until the first third of his health
is depleted.

Once this happens, he will regenerate his shield and become tougher to fight.
Resume the battle as normal once he returns. It is highly likely that you
and your teammates will run out of ammunition for your Xenotech weapons. That
is where Fusion comes in. Pressing “down” on the d-pad (hey, this counts for
both PS3 and Xbox 360!), then you will have unlimited ammo for a bit, plus your
weapons will have their ammunition refilled.

Other than that, just keep at it and the final boss will eventually be felled.
Good luck, and remember to play off each other’s abilities. Like X-Men. Or
something.
