Overview
Tactical Ops – Assault on Terror is an action-oriented semi-realistic first-person
shooter.
Tactical Ops – Assault on Terror pits two teams, the elite Special Forces
and the Terrorists, against each other in a battle to the death in different locations around the world. There are a variety of different scenarios available to
play including the basic hostage rescue scenario, right through to C4 bombing missions and the theft of a prototype weapon. The locations where the scenarios are fought vary, from the towering dam of “Verdon,” to the snows of the
Antarctic in “IcyBreeze,” or the remote church of “Monastery.” Money is
rewarded for successfully winning a round. However, the losers will get a little
bit to keep them healthy. This cash can be used to purchase weapons, items,
and body protection to help your team in their struggle. Money can also be
saved to buy bigger and better weapons to out-smart the opposing forces.

Running the Game
First, quit all other applications and insert the Tactical Ops – Assault on Terror
game CD into your CD-ROM drive. The installation process will start automatically. Follow the instructions on the screen.
Once the game is installed and you have started it, you can either:
– start a practice session; or
– join a multiplayer game.
To start a practice session, click on Game › Start Practice Session. A box will
pop up and you will be able to choose the map you want to play. You can
change the settings for each map: difficulty level, time limit, number of bots,
etc. Bots are characters controlled by the computer. They act of their own will,
unless you give them specific orders. In a practice session, you are the only
one able to give orders to bots. However, you may see/hear messages from
partner bots asking for your help. It is up to you whether you want to help them
or not. In any case, you are always the commander in a practice session. After
an order has been given, all bots (or a specific bot depending on the order)
will follow your instructions for a couple of minutes. They will then return to a
“freelance” mode, unless you give them other specific instructions.
To join a multiplayer game, click on Multiplayer › Find Internet Games and
refresh the list of servers (right-click and refresh). Make sure your Internet connection is working properly beforehand. You can then select which server you
wish to play on, keeping in mind that the lower the ping, the better your connection to the server will be. Also, make sure you are not joining a server that
is already full. In the case that all servers are full, you can start your own multiplayer session and wait for people to join you.

Settings
To change your personal settings, go to Options › Preferences › TO Settings.
You will then be faced with the following options:
Automatic Reloading – If you prefer to have your weapon reloaded automatically after you have emptied your clip, you should check this option.
Hide Crosshairs – If you don’t want your aiming crosshairs to be displayed,
check this option. Although it is harder to play, it makes the game more tense
and realistic.
Hide Widescreen – When you are dead, you can view the game in widescreen
mode (default). If you wish to view it normally, check this option.
Hide Death Messages – If you don’t wish to know when a teammate or enemy
has died, check this option.
HUD Transparency Fix – If you are having trouble viewing the HUD or using
night vision, check this option.
The Basics
Once you’ve joined a game, you will be asked to select which team you would
like to join, either Special Forces or Terrorists. The numbers of players per team
can be found on the Team Select screen.
If you start a practice session, you will be given an overview of your objective
right after you have chosen your team.
If you have joined a multiplayer game and it is not the start of the round, you
will start off dead until the next round starts. However, if it is the start of a
round, you will be given a Briefing screen.
On the Briefing screen, you will be given an overview of objectives that you
need to complete. This is the best period of time to buy your weapons. No one
will be able to move for the first few seconds (this time may vary).
You can buy weapons, items, and body protection to assist you in the forthcoming round. It is recommended that you buy a weapon, ammunition and
body protection until you have a good idea of what weapons and items work
best for you. After a few seconds, the Briefing screen will disappear and you
will be able to move around.

Objectives – Scenarios
Rescuing Hostages (Special Forces) – To get a hostage to follow you, go up to
him and press the “Use” key. The hostage will now follow you until he is rescued, he is killed or you press the Use key on him again to tell him to wait
there. The Terrorists need to stop the Special Forces from rescuing the
hostages.
Planting the Bomb (Terrorists) – The bomb is part of your weaponry. Cycle
through weapons to select the bomb (only one terrorist has the bomb). The
Terrorists need to plant the bomb and guard it until it goes off at a bomb site
designated by a red cross. The Special Forces need to prevent the bomb from
being planted. If it is planted, the Special Forces should defuse it. If the terrorist who has the bomb gets killed, he will lose the bomb. Other Terrorists can
pick up the bomb to plant it. The Special Forces cannot pick up the bomb.
Capturing the OICW (Terrorists) – The Terrorists are out to capture a secret
weapon designed by the government. The Special Forces cannot pick up this
weapon, only Terrorists can.
Escape (either team) – This scenario sees one of the teams fleeing for their lives
while the opposing team tries to hunt them down.
When you start a game, you have $1,000 in your pocket. Throughout the
round, money is given out for a number of different reasons such as: killing
enemies, winning the round, rescuing hostages or keeping evidence until the
round ends. If you kill a teammate or a hostage, you will lose some money.
The maximum amount of money you can have is $20,000.
Money can be spent on weapons whenever you are standing at your starting
point. You cannot buy anything outside the starting zone.

Protection
Note About Armor/Protection (Helmet, Bulletproof Jacket, Pads):
You can either buy a combination of these items, or full protection if you want
to. Each item covers the obvious part of the body, and will wear down as it is
shot. The armor display indicator will tell you how much of the protection is
intact depending on the color – green being the best, red being the worst.
Here are some icons that will appear on screen in specific circumstances:
Escape Zone
A Terrorist Escape Zone. The Special Forces should guard it to stop the
Terrorists from escaping.
Hostage Rescue Zone
The Special Forces should bring the hostages to these zones.
Bomb Zone
The Terrorists should plant the bomb in these zones.
C4 Bomb
This is displayed when you are carrying the C4 bomb.

C4 Explosive
A highly explosive weapon which, if detonated, could put a
huge hole in the ground. After it has been planted, Terrorists
have around 30 seconds to get out of the blast radius.
Evidence
Evidence is scattered all around the level. These items can be picked up, and,
if kept until the end of the round, swapped for some cash.
Cocaine – Weed
These two types of drug are what the
Terrorists steal to make huge profits to buy
their weapons. If picked up and kept until the
end of a round, you will be rewarded with
money.
Money
Money is used the same way as the drugs. If you pick it up and
keep it until the end of the round, you will be rewarded.
20
21
Grenades
Smoke Grenade
This will release clouds of smoke to reduce the vision of the
enemies (and teammates). Smoke grenades are perfect for
storming buildings.
High Explosive (HE) Grenade
An explosive device that is capable of killing anything within
its blast radius.
Flashbang
A non-lethal grenade which will blind enemies for a few seconds before the assault. You can try to kill them while they are
still blinded.
Concussion Grenade
This grenade will disorient anyone within its blast range.
Watch out for the deadly shrapnel.
