STORYLINE
The year is 2075 and Earth is a ravaged and
devastated planet. Instead of a prosperous and
technology-abundant society, we have little
more than the clothes on our backs to keep
us alive. This is a technology dark age, and
you'd have a hard time finding anyone who
knew how to use even the most basic
devices. Only a handful of powerful and
corrupt Mega-Corporations control the
remaining research and technology. These evil
entities use their positions of power to enslave
the citizenry and force their will upon the world.
It doesn't hurt that they have Pacification
Squads - brutal police forces that use fear,
force, and even mind control to keep peace in
the streets.
To fight this oppression, small but determined
groups have formed a loosely organized
Resistance, and are working to undermine the
corporations at every turn. Things are starting
to get intense, and the Mega-Corporations
seem to be collaborating at a high level.
Something big is going on. You are Flynn
Haskell, a leader of a local chapter of the
Resistance that is about to suffer a severe
setback. Stop focusing on small-scale
subversive acts. Pull together a team of
diverse freedom fighters and take the
fight all the way to the top.

Gameplay
The Single Player adventure starts off with a linear, objective-based style of play
mixed with lots of exploration as you learn the game controls and try to find more
information on the background of your task. As the game progresses, your character
must assemble a new resistance team and battle the hordes of Grathius Pacification
Squads–the private police forces that will try with all their might to stop you.
SINGLE PLAYER
To start a new Single Player game, choose your Level of Difficulty, select Arcade or
Simulation mode, and then click on "Start
Game."
Both modes provide very different
experiences. Arcade mode is fast and furious
action. More speed and heart-pumping
combat. Simulation has more realistic, more
challenging action. More strategy and life-like
combat, including factors like friendly fire on
teammates.
Saving a Game
When at the Map Menu or Save Game menus, you can choose to Start a New Game,
Load a Saved Game, or open the Last Saved Game.
To save a game in progress, you can Quick Save at any time by pressing F6, or you
can access the Save Game menu using F5 to create a named save game. You can
Quick Load your most recent Quick Save game using F8 while playing.
4
Along the way, your team will acquire parts of the enemy's technology. This will
change the way the game is played and the style of gameplay will become less linear.
At this point, you will find it helpful be more open in how you approach a level, and
your objectives will often require you to defend your bases while simultaneously
assaulting the enemy's. This style of play will force you to be more strategic and
cunning, sometimes relying on teammates to help you.
HUD
Your HUD [Heads-Up Display] is visible during
gameplay, and keeps track of your ammo and
health. You will also find your mission
Objectives, your GPS indicator used for
locating Teammates and enemies, and your
Team Command Menu.
Music Player [M] is not shown.
5
Characters
Flynn Haskell is the main character
of the game, and it is through his
eyes that the player views the world.
Amember of the Resistance, Flynn
is about to be thrust into a far larger
role than he has ever held before.
Eve McAllister is the brainy Grathius
Scientist that gets caught up in the
Resistance almost by accident.
Although she looks meek, Eve is the
best teammate Flynn could want.
Gus is a weapons expert with a
quick sense of humor and an itchy
trigger finger. Flynn and Eve will
meet up with Gus in Soma, and he
will get Flynn an arsenal of weapons
before traveling with him through the
Bay Area.
Tara is a legitimate badass, who also
happens to understand technology
pretty well. She is the one whom you
will rely on when working with the
mainframes, hacking, and trying to
retrieve security codes.
Gus - Weapons Expert
You will come across many other teammates in the game that will join you in your
fight. By the end of the game, you'll have the ability to control an entire group of nearly
ten teammates and be joined by other forces that want to fight on your side. Some are
better with certain weapons than others, read on to learn how to equip your
teammates with better weapons, or take weapons from them.
Controlling Your Teammates
Be sure to learn how to command your teammates around by using the Team
Command Menu [V]. A pull-down Voice Menu will appear. Click on the Player you wish
to issue a command to and then click on the
command. You can order ALL the same
command for speedier issuing. If the enemy
forces are overwhelming, give your
teammates something to do. Try asking them
to ATTACK. Ask your teammates to FOLLOW
you and they will fight alongside you, or
protect you while you perform tasks.
Sometimes you may find it is better to order
them to HOLD in safety while you clear very
dangerous paths, or if you want to take a
stealthy approach. The DEFEND command
will have them set up defensive positions, or return to your base and protect it if it's
under attack.
You can give any of your weapons to your teammates. Stand in front of your
teammate, bring up the weapon you want to give, and press semicolon " ; " for DROP
WEAPON. You can also take a teammate's weapon. Press single quote " ' " to TAKE
WEAPON BACK.

Objectives
As you progress through the game, you will receive objectives to complete. When you
complete an objective, a new one will appear. In some cases you will have numerous
sub-objectives (collect fuses for hydraulic machine, etc.), where completing them will
both change their status as well as allowing you to complete other listed subobjectives. You can always see which objectives you are currently trying to complete
in the bottom left corner of the HUD.
GPS
In the upper right corner of the HUD, you will see
your GPS device. The GPS appears in most
missions, and it enables you to get a sense of where
you are going. Your destination in order to complete
your current objective will appear as a white dot,
and as you get closer to the objective, the dot starts
to glow on the GPS. The device also shows the
position of your enemies and teammates.
Also, you will come across some items that
you will need for access to an area, a tool for
a special purpose, or to do something special
to activate. When you see these items, they
will have a bracket around them. Simply walk
up to the item, and press your "Interact" key
(Enter or E key by default). This will either
activate the item or bring up the appropriate
device you need automatically (decoder,
explosives, wirecutters, etc.).
Some items require holding down the
Activate key until the process is finished; an in-progress bar will appear on the HUD.
You search a dead enemy by "interacting" with their body. You may find ammo or
health that they were carrying.
More information on interaction is in the Tips/Strategies Section.
Interaction
Many of the objects in the environments can be picked up and manipulated, or even
used as weapons, such as barrels, chairs, cones, cans, boxes, jugs, trooper helmets,
severed arms, etc.
To pick up an item in the environment, switch to your hands weapon (simply press the
number 1) and then click your alternate-fire button. You will have the item in your
hands and are able to carry it anywhere you like. Click fire to drop the item, or hold
down the button to "charge" it up, and release to toss the item over a distance.
Experiment with this by setting traps for guards or by throwing items like chairs down
hallways to create distractions, barricades, or throw them directly AT enemies to take
them out. It is possible to play through entire levels using ordinary objects as
weapons.
8
Regeneration Devices
You may feel that at times, the enemies you kill seem to be coming right back after
you again. They are using stolen regeneration devices that you will uncover as the
story progresses. The good thing is, you will learn how to combat this evil in later
missions.
9
Weapons
You will find eight categories of weapons in Devastation's world. To access these
quickly, press the keyboard number of the category you want and hit the same
number again to select the next weapon in the category quickly and easily. For
example, if you wanted to select your hands, you would press the "1" key once since
it is the first weapon in the Hand-to-Hand category. If you picked up and wanted to
switch to the Wood Plank you could press "1" twice. An alternative is using the
mousewheel to scroll though your weapons.
Weapon categories and their corresponding key number:
Hand to Hand [Key #1]:These are close-combat melee
weapons. You can Alt-Fire to use them in different ways, like
throwing; for example the knife and bottle work this way. In
addition to the regular weapons, you can choose your Hands
[Key #1, weapon #1] to jab and punch, or to pick up, carry,
and hurl items you find in the environment at your enemies.
Handguns [Key #2]: This is your basic type of weapon, and some
can be used akimbo, or two-fisted. You can also Alt-Fire with
selected handguns for a different combat style.
Light Duty Automatics [Key #3]: The range isn't far and accuracy
isn't great, but these are great close combat weapons. If you are
unsure of what situation you may be approaching, these are good
choices to lock and load.
Assault rifles and shotguns [Key #4]:
These are great close-quarters weapons
with a lot of punch. Your aim must be a
bit better, but they can dispatch an
enemy with fewer shots.
10
Sniper rifles [Key #5]: When you need longrange shots, hit the 5 key and grab a sniper rifle.
You can zoom in by using Alt-Fire, and then use
your mouse wheel to get an even closer look. To
get out of zoom view simply hit Alt-Fire again.
Heavy Duty Rifles [Key #6]: There are three heavy-duty weapons, and they cause
serious damage. When you are up against overwhelming odds, these weapons can tilt
the balance back in your favor.
Special Duty Weapons [Key #7]: These weapons will be needed for specific
situations, but you'll also find them incredibly useful throughout the game. The
harpoon gun has an especially effective Alt-Fire mode.
Grenades [Key #8]: Different types for different situations. Hold down the fire button
to throw them farther, but if you hold them too long they might
blow up in your face.
Some special weapons such as the Rat Drone require a bit
more than pulling a pin or trigger. Hold down the fire button
to fully activate it. Make sure you find a secluded place
and hold the Fire button down until the weapon is activated.
The weapons usage will be different in Arcade versus Simulation.
In simulation, the heavier weapons will slow you down and also be
harder to aim when moving. You will find several physical
differences between the modes, and it is your job to get proficient with each weapon.
After you play a mission, or the whole game, you may wish to go back and try it again
using only lighter duty weapons or by trading more weapons with your NPC
Teammates. It adds a whole new style of play to master. More information on
interaction is in the Tips/Strategies Section.

MULTIPLAYER
If you're connected to the Internet, the Multiplayer Menu allows you to host a game on
your computer, or to join a game already started.
Game Types
Deathmatch
Everyone for themselves! No teammates, no help. Just a down and dirty fragfest
where everybody is your enemy. The most kills at the end of the round wins.
Team Deathmatch
Just like Deathmatch, except this time you are on a team facing off against another
team (Resistance vs. Conformist). The team that has the most kills at the end of the
round wins.
Capture the Flag
Each map has two team Flags, and in order to score one team must penetrate the
opposing team's defenses, grab the Flag and return it to their home team's base. If
the Flag carrier is killed, the Flag drops to the ground for anyone to pick up. If your
team's Flag is taken, it must be returned before your team can take the opposing
team's Flag.
Territories
Territories is a brand-new team-based game. Your and your teammates must obtain
the code to your opponent's base, take down their defenses and destroy their
spawning devices. Once you complete this part, you then must hunt down and
eliminate the rest of the enemy team in a last-man standing scenario.
Player Setup
Simply choose the character you wish to play
as, and enter your name. There are 50
characters to choose from.

TECHNICAL SUPPORT
Please go to www.DevastationGame.com to find the latest technical notes and
Troubleshooting information. You will find contact info in the Support Section of that
website.
First things to try if you experience difficulties:
·Update your video drivers. This is the single most important solution for most games.
·Go to www.microsoft.com/directx/ and download and install the latest version of
DirectX.
·Update your sound drivers.
·The game will automatically notify you of any updates or patches, but you will have to
be connected to the Internet in order for this to work. You can also check
www.DevastationGame.com for any updates or patches that may be available.
·Check the Message Forums at www.DevastationGame.com, as members of the
development team will be often be active and able to answer questions. You can also
do a search for similar problems others have had.
·Adjust the Setup Options in a manner that works well with your system configuration.
I.e. if you have a lower end PC and video card, turn the resolution down, Max
Ragdolls down, Texture and Skin Detail down, etc.
·Problems hosting a MP game? Check your firewall to be sure you can host games.
You may have to adjust your firewall settings for this to work.
·Is the game running very slow, or not at all? Please check your system against the
Minimum System Requirements.
·Mods not working, or they messed up your game? ARUSH, Groove or Digitalo cannot
support mods that were not created by Digitalo. You may have to uninstall and
reinstall to get the game back to working default settings.

TIPS & STRATEGIES
·At the start of a MP match you are in spectator mode. You are free to fly around the
map and explore. Make sure you note the locations of the weapons, pickups and
health. It is unwise to go into battle blindly!
·In the single player, use your GPS Device as much as you can. If you are having
problems finding an objective, make sure you keep one eye on the action, and one
eye in the upper right corner of your HUD so you don't get lost.
·Look for different ways to dispatch your enemies. For example, if there is a group of
guards standing near an oil drum, instead of trying to take them on straight up, shoot
the drum and see what happens.
·Interactive items are everywhere in the devastated world. Use your hands to pick up
and throw items like chairs, bottles, boxes, drums, buckets, body parts, you name it.
If you can push or kick it, you can probably pick it up with your hands. First stand
over the item and press "1" to switch to your hands, then press "FIRE" to try to pick
them up. Press "ALT" to drop or throw them. If you press and hold "ALT" you will
wind up and eventually throw whatever you are holding with much force.
·You can move small and large items to make traps or barricades, or throw items to
distract enemies. Throwing explosive items is possible as well. Look for oil and
kerosene drums, gasoline cans, and other nasty items and use them creatively.
Many of these items make excellent weapons, and can take out an enemy when
thrown directly at them. Experimentation is encouraged, as some items will yield very
interesting results.
·You can interact with doors, devices, or teammates. Simply stand close and aim your
crosshair directly on what you want and press "E" for INTERACT. Often, teammates
will give you more information on what they are doing.
16
·You can interact with the CAMNET Security Cameras to see who or what's ahead.
Press "E" for ON/OFF, and use the MOUSEWHEEL to switch cameras
·Improvised weapons such as wood planks and bottles come in handy, but when
those are scarce, you've still got your two fists. Knives and swords are quiet
weapons. Use them in tight combat to allow you to keep your presence hidden.
·Walk quietly and use the element of stealth to even your odds. Use the "SHIFT" or
"CAPS LOCK" keys to walk slowly and avoid making footstep sounds. At the same
time, keep a sharp ear open for your enemy trudging through garbage or water.
·In heated combat, remember to keep moving, because a moving target is harder to
hit than a stationary one. Strafing is a great way to avoid being shot - the A and D
keys will make you strafe side to side while keeping your crosshair on your enemy. If
you're going to stand still, use common sense and crouch behind something.
·Many weapons are great for close combat, while others are better suited for long
distance play. For instance, the shotgun is great in close quarters, while the sniper
rifles are the ultimate long-range weapons. Grenades that explode and cause splash
damage will hurt you if they explode to close to you.
·Visit the Forums at www.DevastationGame.com where you can find other gamers
and share information, strategies and hints.
