Part 8: Desperate Revenge - Part 2

I'm happy to show you my favorite level of the game. It's really great, and maybe the best part of the whole thing.

Weapons

Machine gun

The portable version of the PKM, and it's seriously the best weapon in the whole game. If you get used to the kick, it's just plain fun to fire it at everything that moves. It's also a bit broken, since the kick is really soft when you hipfire. But it can only hold a single mag(300 rounds)and it's easy to blow through it. Keeping it supplied is also tricky, as you need to either kill heavy troopers, or know where ammo boxes can be found.


Enemies

Heavy trooper - Special skills: Stun resist

Easily the biggest and toughest enemy in the game. Aside from the machine gun, they also carry around heavy armor. Taking them down requires some firepower, like two rockets or 3-4 assault rifle mags. They also take a tiny bit less damage from headshots due to the thick helmet. So yeah, they are tough bastards. The armor also makes them resist the impact of shots, so it takes much more to make them flinch. It may not be immediately apparent but other enemies will flinch when getting hit, preventing them from acting. You can stunlock them a bit this way. The heavy trooper will only flinch during sustained fire, and can just wade towards you and fire his gun.

You better have a big gun or a flock of fighters when you have to take them on in a straight fight.
