Hints, Tips, Tricks, Secrets, Glitches & Easter Eggs
Secret Tutorial Room
Play the tutorial till you reach the end, where you can practice shooting enemies. Jump up on the big van located there, then over to the ventilation fan on the wall next to the van. From the fan, jump to the stairs and climb up to the top. Break through the window. You will find an Ingram in the room.
Part 1, Chapter 6 Secrets
There are two secrets when you get to the basketball court. Look up in the basket. There is a Beretta stuck in the net. Then, go to the chain link fence next to the street. Wait briefly and an SUV will pass by. Shoot it, the car will screech to a halt, and a man with a shotgun will get out and shoot at you.
Part 1, Chapter 5 Secret
After the shootout in the laundry room, get into the elevator and you will hear music playing. Look up and shoot the speaker. The music will stop and Max will say "Thank you."
Why Reload When You Can Shootdodge!
While playing around in some of the earlier levels, I discovered a bug in the game. The sawed-off-shotgun instantly reloads when you shootdodge. Im sure this will be fixed in a patch, but for now it is pretty helpful when dealing with multiple enemies. All you have to do is constantly shootdodge with the sawed-off-shotgun drawn, and keep tappin' that trigger.
Shootdodge!
Everyone is always saying bullettime is great. But come on. It uses your little meter up way too fast. I hardly ever use it. I recall using it one time. What I did use was shootdodge though. Its GREAT! Shootdodge as much as possible, around corners, through doors, up stairs, everywhere. If you just aim at the peoples head and neck region and allow yourself the time to recover from the shootdodge then this is all you will need. Forget about bullettime.
Test Everything
Like my little tip about the soldier of fortune room, this one is about windows and background stuff. I found out early in the game that the environments are very interactible. So, I test everything. Thats how I found that secret room and the one in the tutorial. Test cabinets and drawers and yes, even kitchen appliances. I found many useful things by doing this.
Soldier Of Fortune 2 Secret Room!
During the "rooftops" level in part 1 there is a part where you walk across some pipes and find some gangsters watching some pelican thing on tv. After you kill them and go through their room and out the window to a platform. Turn left,you will see a row of ordinary looking windows. Go to the last one and jump through it. You will be in a room full of shotguns and ammo with two Soldier of Fortune 2 posters on the wall!
Big Bomb
In the tutoral mode walk uo to the 1st van you see (right at the start) and walk alongside it so you are squashed between the wall and the van. Get your lead pipe and walk up to the canster look to the floor and the hit it. You should know when you have found the BIG BOMB!
