But if a room has a yet-unfound item, a question mark will appear there instead. If a room has been ransacked of its items, a white dot will appear on your map. Thankfully, the game has your back, because a Super Metroid (or SotN)-like map will show you the locations of items in rooms you've already visited. That will, of course, require a lot of searching. To complete the game in its entirety with a 100% item rating, you won't only need to find the game's fifteen primary items (chronicled in the Inventory section of the guide), but you'll also need to find thirty Grenade Packs, twenty Missile Packs, twenty Foam Packs, twelve Gold Bars, twelve Passkey Components, ten Armor Packs and eight Health Packs. Speaking of those weapons, the interior and exterior of the Shadow Complex alike hold collectibles galore (coincidentally chronicles in the Collectibles section of the guide). They'll require the use of grenades, foam and missiles to damage, and while even the weakest gun in the game can do moderate damage to these foes, the only way to take them out quickly and painlessly is with those special weapons you've been hoarding. Fighting these types of enemies will require heavier firepower than just your standard weapons. Helicopters, mechs in the form of tarantulas, and even walkers that look like AT-STs are just some of the special weapons The Restoration has in store for you apart from the standard Bomba, and these conflicts, at least the first time you encounter each, essentially constitute a boss battle. The base kind of machine you'll run into we refer to in the walkthrough as Spider Droids, but are more properly named, in-game, as Bombas. Non-human enemies come in the form not of aliens or monsters, but of those aforementioned Pentagon prototypes. But you'll find that, later in the game, even these guys are pushovers who can be killed with a single hit using the Inertial Element. As far as human enemies are concerned, they get no more obnoxious and difficult-to-defeat than the Heavy Soldier. Generally, this refers to enemies packing either a chain gun or a rocket launcher, and sometimes a defensive shield as well. Heavy Soldier is a moniker that covers several kinds of soldiers. When you run into these thugs, you'll likely find them attached to the ceiling with their hookshot, shooting ruthlessly down on you while peppering your position with grenades. As for Dark Soldiers and Heavy Soldiers, well, they're of a whole different breed.ĭark Soldiers are just that - dark-clothes wearing soldiers equipped with automatic weapons, a hookshot, and the ability to use grenades. These guys are a bit more obnoxious than your standard Rebel Soldier, but they blend in together relatively seamlessly. Elite Soldiers are distinct because they wear Nazi-like dusters and are usually equipped with assault rifles.
Rebel Soldiers are your run-of-the-mill grunts, usually armed with a pistol or a semiautomatic weapon.
In the Walkthrough, we refer to them as, in order of strength, Rebel Soldiers, Elite Soldiers, Dark Soldiers and Heavy Soldiers. The Restoration has four specific varieties of soldier.
#Shadow complex map missing item dots full#
Indeed, the Shadow Complex is a large, large base full of very angry Restoration soldiers. But it's what lay underneath the pristine terrain that's of real interest. The wooded area is rife with enemies, and is even complete with a few large bodies of water that will necessitate obnoxious travel from time to time. The exterior areas of the Shadow Complex consist of the top fourth (or so) of the map provided in the game. Intrigue galore is happening within, as the cooperative coup launched against the legitimate United States government has given soldiers control of prototype-stage weaponry, equipment and armor that gives them a leg-up on the competition - Jason Fleming very much included. It's in the middle of the woods, and is both secret and well-guarded with a seemingly-never ending array of soldiers and mechanical devices keeping the place secure at all times. The Shadow Complex is a base used by The Restoration, a group of rebels made up primarily of the American military and the American leftwing party, the Democrats.
