Warning to "GameGuide" and "GameStation" or whatever you are! I
live in Indonesia. I've read around that your bastard magazines
like to steal articles, images and codes from popular websites or
someone FAQ and translating them into a very spoiling article
without any respect. Making your magazines more famous, acting
like a master and ignoring the real writers like a piece of trash.
Can you guys feel it if you guys are the writers ? Let me tell
you something boys, if i found any parts of my FAQ somewhere in

and oh yes.. I AM NOT JOKING..

II.ABOUT METAL FATIGUE
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Metal Fatigue is a great RTS game with full 3D world and objects.
You dont need a 3D accelerator card to play this game but of course
its better if you have one. The story within this game is no less
than standard. But the idea behind the game design is great.
Maybe because i like robots games ? The 3D models and shape are
above standard. But i think they should learn more on modeling
robots. I like Front Mission much but still, Gundam is the best.
The bad things that i don't like are, there are no patches or
updates to fix some errors on the game. And no editor included in
the CD. You will get bored quickly if you play Skirmish for 3 or 4
days. So if you don't want to waste your money, i recommend you to
play Campaign mode which is far more fun than skirmish mode.
Please note that if you find some unfamiliar words within this
article, you may want to check the glossary below :
HP : Like in the RPG, its the Hit Points.
Kinetic Based : Damages caused by Bullets, Missiles , etc
Energy Based : Damages caused by Laser , Plasma , etc..
K / E : Kinetic / Energy
Metajoules : Consider this as the money you use in this
Metal Fatigue.
Battle-Field : This divided into 3, Orbit, Surface and
Underground.
Att% : Attack Percentage
Def% : Defense Percentage
MP : Man-Power needed (Not the Mana Points!).
HTH : Hand-To-Hand or melee or close combat.
The reason why i write this damn reader-friendly article is to
provide you a detailed comparison between that corponations and
their combot parts. So you can choose the rightest corponation for
your suit and build your own combots formulate when playing
the Multiplayer game.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
III.ABOUT CORPONATIONS
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
1.RIMTECH
Their combots design are solid!. They are the most versatile
corponation, what i mean, they are balanced in defense, strength
and speed. If you want an easy-to-use corponation then you must
try the Rimtech first. What makes me likes Rimtech combots is,
they are the only one corponation that uses legs part for
jumpjets. Rimtech has weapons that only slant slightly more one
way or the other in terms of the kind of damage it delivers or
protection that it offers against Kinetic or Energy attacks
2.MILAGRO
This corponation is rude. Yes, really damn violent. Most of their
combots are strong for both defense and attack. But somehow slow
than both Rimtech and Neuropa. MilAgro combots are specialy
designed to battle in close combat. Big, strong, brutal but slow.
MilAgro's weapons deliver mostly Kinetic damage, and their
defenses work best against Energy-based attacks.
3.NEUROPA
Great shape on the combots! Neuropa technologies are somewhat far
surpassing both MilAgro and Rimtech. Their combots probobably weak
in defense, but their style is different. Stealth and Speed are
the most important for them. Takes a time to learn on how to use
their combots. Neuropa's weapons are made to deliver mostly
Energy damage and their shields mostly protect against Kinetic
damage.

Kinetic Attack % : - Energy Attack % : -
< TORSO >
..........................

nothing special, you got it ?

Kinetic Defense % : 3 Energy Defense % : 12
Kinetic Attack % : 10 Energy Attack % : 62

enemy sight, until your combot or the units within the cloak
radius are trying to attack or detected by Recon Poles.
Cost : 650 Hit Points : 81
Kinetic Defense % : 7 Energy Defense % : 2
Kinetic Attack % : - Energy Attack % : -
-> Self Repair Torso

to equip them with this torso. This torso will slowly recharge
your combot Hit Points.
Cost : 800 Hit Points : 188
Kinetic Defense % : 15 Energy Defense % : 5
Kinetic Attack % : - Energy Attack % : -

asteroids in the Orbit
layer.

Kinetic Defense % : 4 Energy Defense % : 0
Kinetic Attack % : - Energy Attack % : -
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
VII.UNITS
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Dont underestimate the value of units. Even they are very weak
compared to combots, in the battle-field, they can cause a lot of
troubles. Flying units can be very annoying for your defense
structures, and dont forget, always send your ground units with
combots on the front.

*Remember that some of combot parts have their own special ability
which is not judged here, so i recommend you to not believe this
results when choosing your corponation (for your suit), because this
is only analysis. The real different for each corponation can be
discovered in the real battle on Multiplayer game against an
experienced players. But.. Knowledge is power! >:O

X.COMBOTS FORMULATE
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
You are free to submit your own "Combots Formulate" to FAQ@GodHand.net
and please always give the detailed data like i do. Since you cannot
ALT-TAB this game, so the best way to have the detailed data of your
"Combots Formulate" is write them down on a paper. You can see the
detailed data when you click that combot, and put your mouse cursor
above it, then you'll see the statistics on the bottom of the screen.

XI.FAQ
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Q = Tell me the fastest way to defeat my enemy please ?
A = If you want a "high-risk" strategy, then use all of your money in
the PreBuild time to produce mass combots (with just some basic
parts). Then after the PreBuild time complete, quickly send em
all to your enemy base and quickly destroy their HoverTruck and
Vehicle Factory.
Q = Why my flying combots always die so fast ??
A = If you have your flying combots equiped with Long Missile or
Sniper Beam Arm, dont forget to set their control to STAY and
RANGED. If you can, equip them with some armor parts, like Armor
Legs or Armor Torso...
Q = Im tired of taking the parts from the battle-field using my Hover
Truck. IS there any alternative way ?
A = If you set a Hovertruck to patrol in an area where Combot parts
are lying in the field, in addition to repairing any units and
structures in their path, they will automatically pick up Combot
parts and place them in your Assembly Bay.
Q = Help! Im out of terrain space for my base !
A = Try to build your CyroFarm, Energy Bank, Research and AI Facility
on the underground. That will save some space for your base, dont
forget to guard them with your Mobile Walls.
Q = Which one is better ? Gun Turret or Laser Turret ?
A = Gun is based on Kinetic while Laser is based on Energy. But try
to use Gun Turret especially on the underground. Laser Turret
projectile sometimes have a conflict with other Mobile Walls.
Q = This damn Parts Factory are so slow!
A = If you feel like that, try to build that damn thing as much as you
can. I think 3 Parts Factory are enough because each factory will
build 1 queued parts automatically.
Q = Lava is drained ! No other resources! Help!
A = Build Solar Panel on the orbital asteroids. That way you don’t
need a cheat to get infinite money. Again, don’t forget to add
some Mobile Walls to guard them. And make sure you put a
Point Defense near there.
Q = How the hell can i capture that alien Hedocth structure ?
A = Use your Drill Truck.
Q = What is the best Corponation ?
A = Well i can't tell you this because each person have their own
reason. Personaly, i like them all, depending what corponation
do my opponent use. But i usually use MilAgro.
Q = Is there any way to share my technologies with my ally ?
A = If both of you and yer ally are agree, then you can simply drop
your combots arms and let their HoverTruck to take em to their
Assembly Bay.
Q = What is your favorite combot parts ?
A = Humm... I like Rimtech's Jumpjets Legs. But Neuropa Self-Repair
Torso are also yummy... and... Can't think about it, sorry..
Q = Why are you writing an article for this un-popular game ?
A = Metal Fatigue is a popular game, but they are nothing if compared
to Diablo 2, Baldur's Gate or Black & White. The reason why,
because i like robots games and i like to collect and play them.
