-----------------------------Tips and Advice [TAA2]----------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\_____________________________________________________________________________/
1. Exploit your teammates. Your teammates can die without any bad consequences
so when your low on health you need to use your teammates more.
2. The aiming system for rainbow six 3 is really weird. As long as your enemy
is in the red circle the bullets will hit him. So don't focus to much on
getting the red dot on your enemy unless you are going for a head shot.
3. Usually its better to carry a pistol then a grenade launcher, since a pistol
has more ammo and you won't accidental blow up your teammates. It is also
faster to change to your pistol than to reload your rifle.
4. Reload whenever you have an opportunity because it really sucks when your
getting shot at and there is no bullets in your gun.
5. Whenever your unsure if someone is in a room either peak around the corner
and shoot them or send one of your teammates in the room to check it out.
6. Your teammates are stupid. Never listen to your teammates because a lot of
time they will say "Sector clear" and then someone will pop out from behind a
crate and shoot you. So always check the room yourself just to be sure.

There are a couple of things I would like to say before I start the actual
Guide.
1. Like I said in the introduction (that probally no one read) a lot of
this is just my personal opinion. You could play threw the entire game with
any of the guns in the game its just that some guns are more effective then
others.
2. I will abbreviate names all through out the guide. Sometimes I will put
the abbreviation in () then but sometimes I won't so here is a list of some
Abbreviations I use.
-LMG, light machine gun
-SmG, sub machine gun
-AR, Assault rifle
-Shotty, Shotgun
(Note: this is not all of the abbreviations I use just the ones I can think
of right now.)
3. Since you cannot regain health in this game and whenever you get close to
enemies you loose a lot of health I rate the guns a little bit different
then you may in other games. Here are some basic guide line I use when rating
a gun.
Things that lower the guns score.
-low range (since you can't regain health close range combat is dangerous.
-High rate of fire (Since you run out of health fast, guns that shoot fast will
make you have to reload more)
-Only having a zoom of 1.5x (this is more of my personal preference. Some like
this zoom but I don't)
-having low stats (whats considered low differs with different kinds of guns.
like whats considered low for a pistol isn't the same as what is considered
low for a SMG).
-Being a sniper rifle (its just that simple, sniper rifles to not belong in
this game and are absolutely useless).
Things that increase a guns score.
-having a zoom of 2.0x (this is my favorite level of zoom)
-having high stats for that type of gun.
-long range (the farther away you are the safer you are)
-Large ammount of bullets in each magazine (the more bullets the less you need
to relaod).
-having a scope (This is not always true. Some weapons can use a scope really
well and stay steady while others are jumpy and useless).

Well you can't fight terrorism without guns and lucky for you there are plenty
of them. In this section I will list all of the guns in the game and give you
my opinions on each one. (NOTE: All of this is my personal opinion of each
gun so you may have a different opinion on the gun). This game does a pretty
good job of making the guns ballanced but some guns are still more usefull
then others and in the end it all depends on your playing style and the
mission.
Here is the basic format that I will use to show each gun.
Name: The name of the gun and the calibar of the bullets.
Range: How far away the enemies need to be for the gun to hit them.
Accuracy: How accurate the gun is.
Ammo: How many bullets are in a magazine.
Capacity: how many bullets the gun holds per clip.
Supressed: whether or not the gun has a silencer or not.
Zoom: How much you will zoom in while looking threw the sights/scoop.
Description: Different features of the gun and situations its useful in.
Pros: Good things about the gun.
Cons: bad things about the gun
Rating: the score I give it out of five. (NOTE: 1 is the lowest, 5 is the best)

-------------------------Primary Weapons
[PWS3]-----------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\_____________________________________________________________________________/
Primary weapons include shotguns, sub machine gun, light machine guns, sniper
rifles, and last but not least assault rifle. Your primary weapon is the gun
you will be using thoughout the entire mission. Since you cannot change your
primary weapon during the mission it is important to take in all of the factors
before choosing. Such as knowing if the mission is going to be held indoors or
outside, or how big are the rooms in the building. Because you really would not
want to bring a sniper rifle to a mission where you will always be with in a
5 foot radius of someone.
_____________________________________________________________________________

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------Sub Machine Guns [PWS3]----------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\_____________________________________________________________________________/
What is larger then a pistol, smaller then a rifle, full automatic, and has a
rate of fire greater then a assault rifle? You guessed it, the sub machine
gun (SMG). Like I just said SMGS are compact weapons weapons that have the
firing rate of some rifles but are only slightly larger then most pistols. The
firing rate and small size do come at a price. Since sub machine guns use small
bullets (such as 9mm) there damage and range are quit low compared to other
guns. They are still very good at clearing small rooms full of enemies faster
then a reqular rifle could (NOTE: note SMGS are still outclassed at close range
compared to shotguns). All in all Smgs are very good guns you should give a
try.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: UMP (.45CAL)
Range: 10\100
+++++---------------------------------------------|
Accuracy: 43\100
+++++++++++++++++++++-----------------------------|
Damage: 26\100
++++++++++----------------------------------------|
Ammo: 25
Supressed: Yes
Zoom: 2x
Description: The UMP is a very unique SMG, do to the fact that it uses rather
large .45 Call bullets. Despite the fact that it has a silencer it still has
the highest damage of all the smgs and the third highest accuracy of SMGs.
I you have to use a supressed SMG you should definitely use the ump since it
still packs a big punch.
Pros: High damage even while silenced, Very high Accuracy and damage compared
to other SMGs, it has believe to be the best zoom for any gun.
Cons: Like all Smgs it has low range, 5 bullets less per magazine (not to big a
deal.
Rating: 4.5/5
+++++++++-|
_______________________________________________________________________________
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: TMP (9mm)
Range: 7\100
++++----------------------------------------------|
Accuracy: 46\100
++++++++++++++++++++++----------------------------|
Damage: 8\100
++++----------------------------------------------|
Ammo: 30
Supressed: Yes
Zoom: 1.5x
Description: The TMP is One of the worst guns in the game. I has almost no
range or damage. It does have high accuracy. But then agian accuracy really
doesn't mean anything if you have to be at point blank range for it to be
effective. In a game where you die in 15 bullets and you can't regain health
it is really to risky to have to charge at an enemy to kill them.
Pros: high accuracy.
Cons: Low range combined with low damage is a death wish, have to either put
alot of bullets into an enemy at medium range or get close to them and risk
getting shot.
Rating: 2/5
++++------|
_______________________________________________________________________________
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: MP5SD5 (9mm)
Range: 7\100
++++----------------------------------------------|
Accuracy: 46\100
++++++++++++++++++++++----------------------------|
Damage: 8\100
++++----------------------------------------------|
Ammo: 30
Supressed: Yes
Zoom: 3.5
Description: The MP5SD5 is almost exactly the same as the TMP. There only 2
differences between the TMP and this gun. They are the fact that the MP5SD5 has
a scope and has slightily higher accuracy. The MP5SD5 does get a slightly
higher score do to the fact ot can be use at a slightly higher range do to the
scope attached to it.
Pros: Scope and high accuracy.
Cons: Low range and accuracy will get you killed a lot and its basicly a clone
of the TMP.
Rating: 2.5\5

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: MP5A4 (9mm)
Range: 11\100
++++++--------------------------------------------|
Accuracy: 44\100
++++++++++++++++++++++----------------------------|
Damage: 21\100
+++++++++++---------------------------------------|
Ammo:30
Supressed: No
Zoom: 3.5
Description: The MP5A4 is the unsuppressed version of the MP5SD5. Apparently
when they took of the silencer they actually made a really good gun. Despite
losing 3 Accurracy the guns range slightly increased and the damage almost
tripled. This gun is the best SMG for medium range attacks (Since this gun
is the only SMG with a scope except for the MP5SD5) and like other SMGs it
is also pretty good at close range assaults. All in all this gun is a really
good all around gun that balances Range, ammo, and damage.
Pros: When you rip off the silencer this gun becomes a unigue gun, Only SMG
that can effectively use the scope, Second highest SMG damage.
Cons: high rate of fire tends to empty the magazine pretty quickly.
Rating: 4\5
++++++++--|
_______________________________________________________________________________
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: P90 (5.7)
Range: 14\100
+++++++-------------------------------------------|
Accuracy: 39\100
++++++++++++++++++++------------------------------|
Damage: 17\100
+++++++++-----------------------------------------|
Ammo: 50
Supressed: No
Zoom: 2.0
Description: This is Arguably the best SMG in the game (if not first at least
the top 3). The P90 has the highest range of all of the SMGS, medium
Damage, and High Accuracy. But what makes the P90 really special is the fact
that it uses small 5.7mm rounds allowing the gun to have 50 bullets. Yes you
read correctly 50. So this gun lets hit enemies from farther away letting you
take less risks and if you do find your self in close quarters fight you can
take confort in knowing you have 20 more bullets use. This gun is also my
personal favorite since it lets you spray bullets through a room and actually
hit somthing.
Pros: Extremely large magazine, My favorite level of zoom since it doesn't
zoom to far in, highest range of all of the SMGS, Medium Damage and accuracy,
Cons: Even though it has the highest range of all of the SMGs its range is low
compared to ARs and LMGS.
Rating: 5/5

Name: MAC 11/9 (9mm)
Range: 7\100
+++-----------------------------------------------|
Accuracy: 27\100
+++++++++++++-------------------------------------|
Damage: 8\100
++++----------------------------------------------|
Ammo: 32
Supressed: Yes
Zoom: 1.5
Description the MAC 11 is probally the worst gun in the entire game. I mean
It has terrible Accuracy, range, and damage. On top of that it has a
ridiculously high rate fire meaning it runs out of ammo really fast. Do to
all of its poor stats you have to be within 5 feet of your target in order
to hit them.
Pros: There is absolutely nothing good I can say about this gun.
Cons: Low range, low Accuracy, Low damage, super high rate of fire, Extremely
close range weapon.
Rating: 1\5
+---------|

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY
In this little section I will talk about which SMGS that I have found most
usefull.
1. P90: the P90 is good for people like me who like to spray a lot. Since it
has 50 bullets you don't have to worry about waiting for the perfect shot.
2. UMP: the Ump is more for people who can pick there shots well and not
spray bullets everywhere.

------------------------Light Machine Guns [LMG5]-----------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\_____________________________________________________________________________/
Light machine guns (LMGS) are basically assault rifles with very large
magazines. The stats are only slightly less than a rifle.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: M60E4 (7.62mm)
Range: 49\100
++++++++++++++++++++++++--------------------------|
Accuracy: 47\100
+++++++++++++++++++++++---------------------------|
Damage: 100\100
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++|
Ammo: 100
Supressed: no
Zoom: 1.5
Description: The M60 is a very impressive gun in the fact that it can get a
one shot kill no matter where you hit. That combined with average Range and
Accuracy makes this a very reliable gun.
Pros: 1 shot kills, 100 bullet magazine, average Range and accuracy.
Cons: zoom is low.
Rating: 4.5\5
+++++++++-|
_______________________________________________________________________________
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: M249 (5.56mm)
Range: 39\100
+++++++++++++++++++-------------------------------|
Accuracy: 52\100
++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------------|
Damage: 55\100
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++-----------------------|
Ammo: 200
Supressed: no
Zoom: 3.5
Description: Despite the fact that the M249 has lower stats than the M60 the
performance of both guns is very similar. The M249 makes up for the lower
damge with a higher rate of fire and accuracy. Normally I would say that
a high rate of fire is bad but since the M249 has 200 bullets Its good thing.
Pros: Scope for long range, Lots of ammo, very accurate while looking through
the scope.
Cons: Bad hip fire accuracy.
Rating: 4.5\5
+++++++++-|
_______________________________________________________________________________
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary
I don't feel comfortable saying one gun is better than the other. Stat wise
the M60 is better. But I have used both guns and the performance of them is
pretty much the same. Even though M60 has more damage then the M249 the
M249 has a scope for long range. Its all about personal preference.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------Shotguns [STS6]---------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\_____________________________________________________________________________/
Shotguns are some of my favorite guns. Unfortunately in Rainbow six 3
shotguns are outclassed by Assault rifles and its very dangerous getting
close to enemy soldiers. So you really shouldn't either one of these
guns.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: USAS-12 (12G)
Range: 8\100
++++----------------------------------------------|
Accuracy: 1\100
+-------------------------------------------------|
Damage: 100\100
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++|
Ammo: 20
Supressed: No
Zoom: 1.5x
Description: This gun can tear apart a tango in a couple of seconds. Even
though the game tells you that it has low range you can still hit an enemy
from a good 20 feet away. Even though its automatic it has almost no recoil.
Since its automatic its easy to get carried away and burn a lot of ammo
really quickly.
Pros: At close range it will instantly kill, Quick reload, better range and
accuracy then the game tells you.
Cons: easy to get carried away and waist ammo, At long range it take a lot
of ammo to kill, Although powerfull its just more practical to bring a
assault rifle that good at all ranges than a gun that only good at close and
medium.
Rating: 3\5
++++++----|
_______________________________________________________________________________
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: M1 (12G)
Range: 8\100
++++----------------------------------------------|
Accuracy: 1\100
+-------------------------------------------------|
Damage: 100\100
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++|
Ammo: 6
Supreesed: No
Zoom: 1.5
Description: I honestly have no idea why this gun was put in the game. Its
range, accuracy, and damage is the same as the USAS but there is 2 major
differences. 1. The M1 can only hold 6 bullets and each bullet must be put in
one at a time making the reload very slow. 2. the M1 has a much slower rate of
fire.
Pros: Instant kill at close range.
Cons: totally outclassed compared to the USAS 12, slow reload speed, small
magazine.
Rating: 2\5
+++++-----|
_______________________________________________________________________________
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary
In the end the USAS-12 is superior in every way. The Usas has faster reload,
is automatic and looks cooler. In the end I would rather you use a assault
rifle then either one of these guns but if you have to choose, use the USAS-12.
Seriously I can't stress this enough grab a SMG or a AR but don't take a
Shotgun into battle it will just give you a really hard time unless you are
really experienced in this game.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------Sniper Rifles [SRS7]----------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\_____________________________________________________________________________/
Sniper rifles are completely useless in this game. Even though the game tells
you that they have 100 accuracy, this only aplies while looking threw the
scope. When firing from the hip the accuracy is more like 10 then 100. On top
of having horrible hip fire accuracy they have small magazines of only 10 and
since 85% of the game is fought indoors there is really no point for a super
long range weapon.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PSG-1 (7.62mm)
Range: 49\100
++++++++++++++++++++++++--------------------------|
Accuracy: 100\100
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++|
Damage: 75\100
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------------|
Suppressed: No
Zoom: 10x
Description: The in game description tells you that this gun is "the most
accurate sniper rifle availible" but like I said in the intro this only
applies when looking threw the scope. The hip fire accuracy is terrible like
all of the sniper rifles forcing you to either try your luck for a hip fire
or use your scope and risk being hit by somone you didn't see because you had
tunnel vision. Whatever you do, do not use this gun.
Pros: Pin point accuracy.
Cons: (Note: this list is going to be pretty big) Zoom 10x is really overkill
and there aren't that many areas where this is usefull, Horrible hip fire
accuracy, A Assault rifle with a scope can do just as much as a sniper rifle,
It just sucks ok.
Score: 1.5\5

AW Covert (7.62mm)
Range: 8\100
++++----------------------------------------------|
Accuracy: 100\100
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++|
Damage: 20\100
++++++++++----------------------------------------|
Supressed: Yes
Zoom: 10x
Description: I would like to personally shoot who ever decided to put this gun
in the game. I mean your average pistol performs better then this gun. It has
less range then a pistol and a damage of a SMG but can only shoot 1 shot every
2 seconds. Meaning it takes 5 shots to kill somone even if evey shot hits there
chest. Because of this you are forced to get a head shot and if you miss it
gives your enemy lots of time to shoot you before you can shoot again. And of
course it has all of the problems that other sniper rifles have (small
magazines, bad hip fire Etc.)
pros: Pin point accuracy
Cons: This is going to be another big one. Low range, Zoom 10x is really
over kill, very low damge, Extremely low rate of fire, the silencer on the
gun does absolutely nothing if you have to shoot the enemy 5 times to kill
them, Very small magazine, Horrible hip fire accuracy, Probally the worst gun
in the entire game.
Score: .1\5

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
M82A1 (.50CAL)
Range: 100\100
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++|
Accuracy: 82\100
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------|
Damage: 100\100
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++|
Supressed: No
Zoom: 10x
Description: This is the best sniper rifle in the game. Able to deliver 1 shot
kills no matter where you hit them from far away. The Gun still hits its mark
every time even though the game tells you that it has 82 accuracy. Don't
get me wrong, Sniper rifles still suck and you should almost never use this
gun. I'm just saying if you really want a challenge you should use this gun.
I have been able to beat 3 missions using only the M82A1, but this was in co-op
and my brother distracted the tangos for me making the mission much easier.
Pros: 1 shot kills, Pin point accuracy, best sniper rifle in the game, decent
hip fire do to the guns higher rate of fire.
Cons: I'm really to lazy to list eveything. Just look at the other list on the
PSG-1. Just get rid of the "horrible hip fire accuracy" part.
Rating: 2\5
++++------|
_______________________________________________________________________________
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary
Sniper rifles have no place in this game. Since most of the game is fought
in close quarters combat a purely long range weapon is just not needed.
Because of this I would recomend that you never use a sniper rifle unless you
want a challenge. If you really want to use a sniper rifle because you want
a challenge then you should use the M82A1 since its a guaranteed one shot kill
and has excellent range and accuracy.
In the end the sniper rifle is totally out classed by Assault rifles. I mean
the M16 has a scope and can kill a tango at the same range and just as quickly
as a sniper rifle can but can also be used at close range.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------Assault Rifles [ARS8]-------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\_____________________________________________________________________________/
Assault rifles are the best all around weapons in the game. There stats are all
pretty average and if you are new to the game you should use a assault rifle.
They pretty much all have a zoom of 2.0 or higher and can kill in 2 shots.
One more thing I should say before continuing is that 6 of the assault rifles
and are pretty much exactly the same (except for a few minor differences in
there stats). For the first 6 weapons I'm going to simpily copy and paste the
description, pros, cons, and rating Since there so similair. (Note: there may
be some minor differences in there pros\cons\description.

the title). This gun has average range, accuracy, and damage. Its able to
achieve 2 shot kills and has very good zoom. If you ever have trouble deciding
on a gun consider this one.
Pros: Average range, Average damage, average accuracy, good zoom.
Cons: Nothing special at all and has 5 other guns exaclty like it.

AK-47 (7.62MM)

++++++++++++++++++--------------------------------|
Accuracy: 45\100
+++++++++++++++++++++++---------------------------|
Damage: 70\100
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------------|
Supressed: No
Zoom: 1.5x
Description: The AK-47 is a force to be reckoned with. With 70 damage it can
kill enemy in two shots. Even though the game tells you it has lower range and
accuracy it still performs very closely to the other assault rifles. (Note: im
not sure if this is just me or the actual game but whenever I use the gun even
at close range when the red circle is over the enemy it still won't hit them
till I empty the magazine.)
Pros: High damage.
Cons: slightly lower Accuracy and damage then the other guns, bad zoom, this
gun always fails me for some reason.
Rating: 3\5

G3A3 (7.62MM)
Range: 49\100
+++++++++++++++++++++++++-------------------------|
Accuracy: 65\100
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-----------------|
Damage: 87
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------|
Supressed: No
Zoom: 3.5x
Description: The G3A3 is a cross between a sniper rifle and a assault rilfe.
It gets the damage, accuracy, and zoom of a sniper rifle combined with the
rate of fire and large magazine of a assault rifle. While looking threw the
scope you can get pin point accuracy and kill a tango in about 1 second.
The only problem is the crosshairs are almost as small as the crosshairs on
a sniper rifle while firing from the hip. Still this gun is very good
at medium and long range.
Pros: has the best stats of sniper rifles and assault rifles (Damage, accuracy,
rate of fire, large magazine), great for medium and long range.
Cons: horrible hip fire accuracy.
Rating: 4\5

Galil Arm (5.56MM)

++++++++++++++++++++------------------------------|
Accuracy: 71\100
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--------------|
Damage: 60\100
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--------------------|
Supressed: No
Zoom:1.5
Description: Like the game description tells you this is a recreation of the
Ak-47. The only noticible difference is the damage. But while it loses out
on damage it gets a magazine with 70 more bullets in it. I personally believe
this gun should be in the machine gun section but the game classifies it as
a assault rifle. This gun isn't to reliable at long range so a lot times you
will finding yourself spraying a lot.
Pros: Extremely large magazine, good accuracy at close range, one of my most
favorite assault rifle.
Cons: Unreliable at long to medium range, bad zoom, really bad accuracy if
you start to spray.
Rating: 4\5

M16A2 (5.56MM)

+++++++++++++++++++-------------------------------|
Accuracy: 74\100
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------------|
Damage: 66\100
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-----------------|
Supressed: No
Zoom: 3.5
Description: The M16A2 is the best all around assault rifle in the game. With
a range of 74 it has pin point accuracy while looking threw the scope and a
decent hip fire accuracy. Though I personally don't like this gun since it
has a unnecessary high zoom it is still a very good gun.
Pros: Good combination between a sniper rifle and a assault rifle, good
accuracy, good damage.
Cons: nothing to say here.
Rating: 4.5\5

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary
In the end most of the assault rifles are clones with a different coat of paint
on each one. All of these guns are good and you should use any one of these
especially if you are new to the game or having trouble on a level. The only
truly unique ones are the Galil Arm and the AK-47. The Ak-47 is unreliable and
the Galil Arm is only good at short range so you should probaly avoid both.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------Secondary Weapons [SWS9]----------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\_____________________________________________________________________________/
Secondary weapons (also called your sidearm) are accurate short range weapons
with small magazines of less then 15 bullets (with the exception of the SR-2).
Since they have small magazines these are not weapons you should use for the
entire mission. Instead You should only use this weapons when you run out of
ammo and you don't have time to reload your gun. Overall there isn't much
difference between the first 3 pistols (The only unique ones are the Deagle and
the SR-2).
_____________________________________________________________________________
/ \
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------Handguns [HAS1]-------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\_____________________________________________________________________________/
Hand guns are probally going to be your main sidearm you will be using threw
out the game. The hand guns will be divided into 3 sections.
Pistols: have 9-10 bullets, good accuracy but low damage. This section includes
the USP, MK23, and the 92FS.
Magnums: Extremely high damage capable of killing in 2 shots and have
medium accuracy but at the cost of only having 7 bullets. There is only one
magnum in the game is the Desert eagle (abbreviated as the Deagle).
Machine Pistols: have 16-20 bullets. Only one of the 2 machine pistols are
automatic. they both have low range and damage but the accuracy is pretty
high.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
USP (40.CAL)
Range: 10\100
+++++---------------------------------------------|
Accuracy: 32\100
++++++++++++++++----------------------------------|
Damage: 20\100
++++++++++----------------------------------------|
Suppressed: No
Zoom: 1.5x
Description: The USP is one of the 3 pistols that are basically clones of each
other with only slight differences in stats that aren't really that
noticeable. The USP has the highest damage and range of the pistols but also
has the lowest accuracy of the 3. Again like I said before the stats are not
that noticeable and the only thing that effects the pistols are the size of the
magazine.
Pros: Highest Range and Damage of the pistols, medium ammo.
Cons: Lowest range of the pistols, other 2 pistols are almost exactly the same,
only pull this out if you run out of ammo in your primary weapon.
Rating: 3.5\5
+++++++---|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mk23 (.45CACL)
Range: 8\10
++++----------------------------------------------|
Accuracy: 42\100
+++++++++++++++++++++-----------------------------|
Damage: 19\100
++++++++++----------------------------------------|
Suppressed: Yes
Zoom: 1.5x
Description: The MK23 is the most balanced pistol in the game. It only has one
less point in damage and range and also has the best accuracy of all of the
pistols (This is the best pistol but not the best secondary weapon). Even
though I have said many times that the silencer is absolutley useless I would
like to note that if you for some wierd reason like silencers you should
use this gun since it is stil keeps its power even while supressed.
pros: Best pistol in the game, highest accuracy of all of the secondary
weapons, keeps all of its power even while supressed.
Cons: Even though this gun is the best it still only slightly better then the
other 2 pistols.
Rating: 4\5
++++++++--|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
92FS (9MM)
Range: 7\100
+++-----------------------------------------------|
Accuracy: 42\100
++++++++++++++++++++++----------------------------|
Damage: 12\100
++++++--------------------------------------------|
Supressed: Yes
Zoom: 1.5x
Description: Is the 92FS is the worst pistol in the game (only by a little
bit). The only noticible difference between this gun and the USP or the Mk23
is that this gun may take you one more bullet to kill but it makes up for this
by having a 15 bullet magazine. Overall this is a solid weapon but is simply
weaker compared to the other guns and there is no point in using it.
Pros: Average stats for a pistol, largest magazines of the pistols and the
magnums.
Cons: Worst pistol in the game, lowest range and damage, outclasses by the
other pistols.
Rating: 3\5
++++++----|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Desert Eagle (7.62MM)
Range: 10\100
+++++---------------------------------------------|
Accuracy: 36\100
++++++++++++++++++--------------------------------|
Damage: 70\100
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------------|
Supressed: No
Zoom: 1.5x
Description: The Deagle is basiclly a barret 50 cal that fits in your pocket.
Even though its a pistol it is fairly accurate and kill an enemy in 1 shot.
But all good things must have a drawback. The Deagle is amazing but it has a
high rate of fire and with only 7 bullets you will be finding yourself
reloading a whole lot if your not carefull.
Pros: High damage, doesn't lose much damage or accuracy with the high damage.
Cons: high rate of fire, Low ammo
Rating: 5\5
++++++++++|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MAC 11\9 (9MM)
Range: 7\100
+++-----------------------------------------------|
Accuracy: 27\100
++++++++++++++------------------------------------|
Damage: 8\100
++++----------------------------------------------|
Supressed: No
Zoom: 1.5x
Description: I would really like to know what the creaters of the game where
thinking when they made this gun. I mean just look at the size of the stat
bars you can cleary see this thing has no range or damage. When the MAC 11
was a primary weapon at least it was a half deacent gun but now as a secondary
weapon it has 10 less bullets and runs out of ammo even faster. Do to the
horrible range and damage you will have to be within 3 feet of an enemy to kill
them (this was on easy difficulty).
Pros: THERE IS NOTHING GOOD ABOUT THIS GUN
Cons: Low range and damage, Low ammo, Fast rate of fire.
Rating: .000001\10

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SR2 (9MM)
Range: 12\100
++++++--------------------------------------------|
Accuracy 35\100
++++++++++++++++++--------------------------------|
Damage: 20\100
++++++++++----------------------------------------|
supressed: No
Zoom: 2x
Description: This is arguably the best sidearm in the game. Despite the
fact it is not a machine pistol like the game tells you it still has excellent
accuracy and damge. On top of that it 2x times zoom for getting quick headshots
on unexpecting tangos. Lastly it has a very large clip of 20 bullets for you
people who like to spray.
Pros: Good Accuracy and Damage, Large clip, Good zoom, over all best sidearm
in the gmae.
Cons: While firng frim the hip the range isn't to good.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary
So now you want to know what sidearm to use right? (I know about 75% of you
said no to this question) Well most of the sidearms are well balanced and for
the most part they are all pretty much the same. But there are 2 guns that
really stand out. This guns are the SR2 and the DEAGLE. The SR2 has excellent
stats, a good zoom, and a large magazine. While the DEAGLE has less bullets
it can still deliver a one shot kill and is still farely accurate for a gun
of its power.
So basicly use the DEAGLE is you can precise with your shots and use the SR2
if you just want to go crazy and spray.

----------------------------Grenade Launcher [LAS2]----------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\_____________________________________________________________________________/
If I could talk to the creators of this game, one question I would ask them is
WHAT THE HECK WHERE YOU THINKING PUTTING A SINGLE SHOT GRENADE LAUNCHER IN A
GAME WHERE YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO SAVE HOSTAGES. Unlock other games the nade
launcher is not attacthed to your gun. In adition to that the grenade launcher
only has 4 shots in it. But like I said during the beggining of the paragraph
the grenade launcher is very dangerous to use. Since most of the game is
indoors there is a major risk of hitting one of your teammates or killing a
hostage. Luckily there is ammo that is isn't lethal.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
M203 (grenades)
Range: 100\100
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++|
Accuracy: 100\100
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++|
Damage: Varies depending on the ammo being used.
Explosive ammo: 100\100
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++|
non lethal ammo: 0\100
--------------------------------------------------|
Supressed: No
Zoom: not sure
Capacity: 1
Description: For a description look below the title. For this section I will
talk about the different ammo you can use in the launcher.
40MM HE: these are high explosive rounds that will instantly explode when they
hit an enemy, the ground, or a wall. Frankly all of the ammo for the launcher
sucks. It is pretty much always better just to throw it becuse you can at
least bounce it around corners.
Rating: 1.5\5
40MM CS: This is basically tear gas. Any enemy that walks into the cloud the
grenade makes will stop shooting and start grasping there own face. Again
even as a thrown grenade these thinks are worthless. I mean would you rather
throw a grenade that disables anyone in the mist and then have to shoot them
or throw a grenade that kills anyone you steps into the mist.
Rating: .5\5
40MM RP: when this grenade explodes all enemnys in the area will be set on fire
and die. This is probally the best genade in the game since it has a good
blast radius and sets people on fire.
Rating: 3\5
40MM SMOKE: As a thrown grenade smoke nades are pretty good. But in a
launcher they really suck. I mean why would you throw a grenade at your enemys
so you have trouble seeing them.
Rating: .5\5
Overall Rating for the grenade launcher
1\5
+---------|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary
All of the grenades for the launcher sucks. Instead of using this cheap
version of a noob tune use a real gun like the SR2 or the DEAGLE.

------------------------------Explosives and Gear [EAG3]-----------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\_____________________________________________________________________________/
After you have selected your primary weapon and sidearm you get to choose
your Grenades and other gear. In this section I will simpily talk about the
gear and give it a rating since there are no stats for grenades and explosives.
_____________________________________________________________________________
/ \
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------Grenades [GAS4]----------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\_____________________________________________________________________________/
Grenades are small hand held explosives that you throw. Some of the grenades
are lethal an will ussualy instantly kill but others will ussually just
stun an enemy. All in all grenades to do not play a major roll in this game
and you can go threw the entire game without throwing one.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tear gas Grenade
Description: the tear gas grenade emits a small mist of gas that will make
anyone who breathes the gas (even you) start touching there own face.
even though this seems nice it is pretty worthless since the blast radius is
low so a lot of the time one guy won't get hit and continue to shoot at you.
Rating: .5\5
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Smoke Grenade
Description: These non lethal grenades are awesome. When thrown they will
emit a large cloud of smoke for about 20 seconds that niehter you or your
enemies can see threw. So if you know there is a bunch of tangos on the other
side of the door simpily throw a smoke grenade at your feet turn on your IR
gogles and open the door. And then watch as how the enemies can't see you and
how you shoot them down.
Rating: 5\5
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
M34 WP Grenade
Description: High blast radius and instantly kills enough said.
Rating: 5\5
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FRAG Grenade
Description: This is the same as the M34 grenade except with a slightly
lower blast rasius and doesn't set anyone on fire.
Rating: 4.5\5
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Flash Grenade
Description: when these grenades exploid all enemies in the room that are
looking in that direction will be temporarly blinded, Or at least this is
what they are supposed to do. What I mean by this is these darn things DON't
work. 9 out 10 times I will throw this into a room run in only to find one
out of 3 guys are actually stunned.
Rating: 2\5 (the only reason it gets a 2 is because it somtimes works)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary
Like I said before grenades aren't to important in this game. But 2 you should
pretty much always bring along are the SMOKE grenades and either the M34 or the
Frag grenades.
_____________________________________________________________________________

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------Explosives [EPS5]----------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\_____________________________________________________________________________/
For this section I am going to simpily give a short one sentance long
description for each item. But in Summary for this section I give all of the
explosives .5 because most of them don't do there job and are useless in this
game.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Claymore Mine
Description: Unlike in real life you need to activate these mines yourself and
since tangos will really never come to you these things are completely useless.
Rating: .5\5
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Breaching Charge
Description: These things can only be placed on doors. When the charge is
activated the door is blown open and anyone neer the door will be killed.
Unfortunately there are only 2 places in the entire game where tangos will
close enough to the door for this to be usefull.
Rating: .5\5
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary
After giving both explosives a .5 you can probally tell that you shouldn't
use either one of these items. (NOTE: in just about every mission one of your
teammates will have Breaching charges so there is no reason for you to carry
them around).
