NOTE: In certain parts of the game, invulnerabilty may 
switch off when moving into a new area.


Getting items:
--------------
When Hendrix first starts talking to you, go down the catwalk away from 
the APC. There should be a tunnel that leads to a miner and guard fighting. 
Shoot that guard then shoot the one at the elevator. Stand in front of the 
elevator and face the wall behind it. Look up slightly to see a hole. Enter 
the hole and at the end is a pond or lake. At the bottom of the pond is a 
miner's body, health, and an Environment Suit.

If possibal try and sneak on your opponents or 
if they are shooting at you then run as close 
as you can to them [even in the open]but right 
in front of him is better if possible.If he is 
snipering you then sniper him or dodge him.

Destroying turrets:
-------------------
Equip remote mines or a rocket launcher. Then, use heat seeking mode to lock 
on to the turret. Fire away and blast the turret easily. Note: If you are low 
on rockets and have remote mines, then use them on ceiling turrets. 

Avoid detection:
----------------
In the single player game, there are two locations where you have to be stealthy. 
One is when you pretend you are a businessman and the other is when you have to 
pretend to be a scientist. To make it easier to avoid detection from guards or 
other pedestrians, always look down or away from people. No one will learn your 
identity until you look them in the face. 

Defeating Mendoza:
------------------
When the battle starts, take out the flyer which Mandoza is inside with two 
shots from the raildriver. When she exits, use all your remaining raildriver 
shots to weaken her shield. Then take out your machine gun and fire as many 
times as needed to take out her shield. Afterwards, use the machine gun on 
her again. She will be defeated very soon.

Saving ammunition:
------------------
When you have remote explosives, do not use up ammo for your other weapons. It 
only takes one to a few remote explosives to take out enemies. When you start 
the game and get to the part where you see the four troopers and the enemy APC, 
throw a bomb down by the APC. Detonate it and the bomb will blow a huge hole 
in the ground. If done correctly, the APC will fall in and explode when it hits 
bottom. Take advantage of the geo-modification of this game. 
This also works with groups of enemy soldiers. 

Sniper rifle:
-------------
Immediately before the abandoned mines is an elevator that goes down toward the 
abandoned mines. When you go down there, you will find a ladder next to you. When 
the elevator stops, before it hits the bottom of the pit, grab the ladder and 
climb up until you reach a hole with some bushes in it. Enter the hole to find 
a Sniper Rifle and some bullets. 

Easy kills:
-----------
Throw a remote mine on an enemy. If it hits, they will scream and run around 
instead of shooting you. Let them run around and eventually they will try to 
find guards. When they do, detonate the bomb to get two or more frags for one. 

Secret Video:  
-------------
1) Either open the Red Faction CD number 2, or the 
Red Faction folder on your hard drive if you did a 
full installation. 

2) Open the Data folder. 

3) Open the Movies folder. 

4) There should be a file called: "technochunk.exe". 
It should have a "Bink Video" icon. Double-click on this 
file and a secret video will start playing. It has some 
Red Faction enemies and other characters dancing to some 
music, with an explosive finale :) 

Easter Egg:
-----------
On CD2 in data/movies there's a hilarious Bink Video .exe file.
