(I-I) INTRODUCTION (I-I)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Without Warning is a tale of survival. It's not fire-making, forest-living
jungle life. No. It's a story of 6 survivors from a terrorist takeover of
a chemical plant.
3 civillians, 3 special commandos.
And guess what? You can play as each of them throughout the 12 Hour siege of
the plant...
"All of the action in Without Warning takes place over the course of a 12-hour
period. Terrorists have infiltrated a chemical plant and a three-man team gets
inside to take them down. Along the way there are three civilians that play a
role in the operation as well. One is a security guard, another is a secretary,
and the third is a cameraman who survived a crash in his news chopper after it
was hit by a surface-to-air missile from the terrorists. The cameraman wants to
get the story and survive while everyone else wants to get out of there and
save as many hostages spread across the plant as possible. There are six
playable characters in all, but the trick is that none of them really interact
with each other directly. However, there will be several times where characters
see others or the results of their actions during their own segment, such as
seeing a firefight from afar."

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Welcome to the Jungle, Hooper.
------------------------------
Hooper will be briefed on the situation, just for the players' benefit. The
objective is to sweep the Chemical Plant and rescue all of the hostages, with a
shoot-to-kill policy for the terrorists. When Hooper's radio transmission is
over, you're thrown in at the deep end.
From your starting position, you'll see two guards chattering away in the
distance, don't worry about them, as they can't see you. Take this time to toy
around with the controls, as moving around can be tricky at first, but with
practise you'll be able to manuever about with ease.
Once you feel capable of taking on the tangos, hit X to crouch, and slowly make
your way up the stairs and to the left, into the small worker's office. Once
inside, get to the window and take aim. Thanks to the simple Lock-On feature,
taking out enemies is a doddle, so pick a tango, lock onto him and take him
down. After your first mark is dead, lock onto the next one and kill him as
well. When you see a terrorist climb up some large crates to the right of the
yard, head to the door and shoot him, then back to the window to kill the last
remaining tangos.
When they are killed you'll be given a cutscene showing another survivor taking
on the terrorists. Once the scene's over, head through the newly opened gates.
**************
ACTION POINT! ~22:04:44~ ACTION POINT!
**************
----------------------------------------------
- The room where Wilson, the Security guard, -
- entered explodes. Nothing could of survived-
- that blast. -
---------------------------------------------
Anyway, keep sneaking and take quick aim on the enemy who runs out of a nearby
door (Ducking behind a crate allows you to take aim more easily, since he does
not know you're there). Keep progressing and head to the left hand side of the
next set of gates. Fire upon the guy on the other side and then his friend who
follows. When both are dead, shoot the barrel by the gate to destroy it. Head
through.
Take out both the tangos and head through the little side gate. On the other
side, hit A by the door to start the lock-picking game.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
LOCK-PICKING
MINI GAME
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
The puzzle looks simple, but it's not as simple as just keep pressing A until
the lock opens. Instead, you must start by pushing all of the pins up, starting
with the smallest first. As each of them drops back down, they will lock into
place (indicated by a green light) if in the correct sequence.
To pick this lock, do the following:
-Hold A on the first pin.
-Hold A on the third pin.
-Hold A on the middle pin.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Then head on inside.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Listen to Dave's briefing on what to do to learn where you're headed. Since
you've played around with Hooper's controls, you won't need to learn anything
new for Wilson except the different guns.
Anyway, head through the grey door and into the yard. Shoot the tango on the
ground before going for the one of the platform above. Make your way up there
by the stairs (You can see the action from earlier taking place!) and follow
the platform around. Shoot the tango who comes out of the room ahead and go
in there.
Make use of the turned over tables as cover and take down the tango. When he
is dead, rush through to the next door. A countdown will flash on the screen,
indictating how much time you've got before the room goes sky-high, and
believe me, it's not a lot of time!

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Once again, pay close attention to the briefing and then be prepared for a rush
of a level. The C4s' timer is rigged to blow for 2 minutes! You have until then
to find it and defuse it.
Run forward and shoot the tango who comes out through the doors and back to
where you began. Blast up the tango which comes down the staircase and then hit
A on the little door where the bomb is planted to go into a mini-game.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
BOMB-DISPOSAL
MINI GAME
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
In order to defuse a bomb, you will need to play a game of QTE. In other words,
hit the buttons which correspond with the buttons which come up on screen in
time to disarm it.
It's not that simple though. You don't just hit the buttons as they appear, but
you need to wait until they pass to the top of the wires. It's hard to
understand in writing, but once you are playing it, you'll see what I mean.
The button sequences are random, so I can't list them, but it's an easy event
once you know how to do it.
---
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
What?! The timer's still going even though I disarmed it?! Relax. There's not
just one bomb. There's 3. But thankfully, you just got rid of one. Be quick
about this, so head up the stairs and go into the first room on the left to
find the next bomb. Using the method already mentioned, defuse it and then
back down the stairs into the starting room.
Go further into the room and you'll see some descending stairs to your left.
Go down them to find the final bomb. Defuse it.
Command will radio in and contact you, listen to the command and then head
back up the stairs. Turn right and go up the large stairs, killing the
terrorist which surfaces. Turn left and cross the walkway and into the kitchen
from earlier. Once again, make full use of the tables as cover and kill the
three bandits, two by the door, one behind the counter. Once they are down,
head through to the door into the next room...
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
CUTSCENE
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Hooper will discover the body of Wilson lying on the floor. Thankfully, he's
not dead yet! The blast of the bomb only caught his leg, wounding him. Watch
the wonderful closing moments of the demo where Hooper and Wilson join forces
to bring down the terrorists. What an ending...
