100% accuracy
To get 100% accuracy with any gun, including the heavy machine gun, just hold the D-pad up to aim. When you shoot, the bullets will always hit their mark, even if you hold down the shoot button with an automatic gun.

Defeating Capek:
When you reach Capek's Inner Sanctum, there will be a few guards with heavy armor. Try and take them all out, except for one because as soon as you do, Capek appears. Run to the ramp on the right-hand side of the room and take a right at the top of the ramp to follow another ramp up towards a door. Arm yourself with the Assault rifle and take out the last guard. As soon as you do, Capek appears and Eos blasts through the door where you are standing. Run through the hole she made and you will find health and weapons. Save your game at this point. Then, use the assault rifle to defeat Capek. However, stay away from Eos because if she dies the fight ends.
After defeating two of the three guards, run up the ramp to your left and take the gun and ammunition. Then, kill the guard on the opposite side. Capek will immediately descend from above. At this point keep moving -- do not try to fight him, but stay on the ramp. Eos will break through the door where the third guard was located and begin shooting Capek. Quickly run through this door and pick up the sniper rifle and ammunition. Then, back up so that you are out of Capek's sight. When you go back to the doorway, you will see that Capek has ascended back up to where he dropped down from and Eos is running around shooting at him, but he is not firing back. Stay in the doorway, take out the sniper rifle and shoot his protective purple bubble five times -- do not worry, he will not shoot back. After five shots, his bubble will burst, he will drop down to the platform below, and begin shooting at you again. Leave the doorway and begin shooting him with one of your automatic weapons. That combined with Eos' shooting will defeat him easily. Note: As you are running around, stay away from Eos -- if Capek's projectiles miss you, they will hit her and your game will be over. Capek never tries to hit Eos; he just wants you.


Finding secret areas:
Every time you see markings on the wall (for example, posters and paint) in multi-player mode, use something explosive on it. It will lead to a secret area.


Guard suicide:
When a new game is started, you would usually follow a fellow miner, hear them talk, and then fight each other. Instead of listening to them talk, go right past them. One of the soldiers will start firing at you. Immediately after he starts firing, place your fellow miner in between yourself and the firing guard. Your fellow miner will die, leaving the guard he was talking to start talking to himself, fighting himself, and then killing himself.


Free Fusion Rocket Launcher ammunition in multi-player mode:
Once you have the Fusion Rocket Launcher in multi-player mode, kill yourself with it, If you can get back to your corpse, you can pick it back up. When you do, it will have three shots on reserve and a fourth ready to fire.


Water in the sub:
In training mode, after you ride in the submarine, point the nose of the sub out of the water. Make the sub completely vertical, then press X to get out. You will get out of the sub in the cockpit of the sub. You can look outside, and there is a bit of water in the sub where the chair is located

Easy kills:
Throw a remote mine on an enemy. If it hits, they will scream and run around instead of shooting you. Let them run around and eventually they will try to find guards. When they do, detonate the bomb to get two or more frags for one.


Avoid detection:
In the single player game, there are two locations where you have to be stealthy. One is when you pretend you are a businessman and the other is when you have to pretend to be a scientist. To make it easier to avoid detection from guards or other pedestrians, always look down or away from people. No one will learn your identity until you look them in the face.


Getting health:
When low on energy, kill worker doctors and even Red Faction men to pick up more health and Environment Suits.


Badlands: Bottom of level:
In this level, there are natural bridges over a giant pit which if you fall, you will usually die. Use the following trick to get to the bottom without dying. This will be difficult if you have more than two bots. It is recommended that you try this alone first. Find the rocket launcher that is next to a bridge. Go on the bridge and face the flat wall that leads to the bottom. At a 45 degree angle, start blowing holes downwards until you have almost reached the bottom. You now have to jump and try to make it into the first hole you created. .You will lose some health here from the fall. Once you are there, go backwards out of the hole and slowly drop down to the next hole. Repeat this pattern until you get to the bottom. Save at least 1 rocket so you can kill yourself -- the bots will not be able to get to you. This is difficult to do when playing against bots because of them shooting at you. Set the timer to 30 minutes. Take a lot of weapons such as the Rail Driver and the Sniper Rifle with you. Start blowing up the natural bridges from the bottom. Do not do it completely, but just enough to watch all the bots plunge to their deaths.


Lobby: Secret roof area:
Go to the second level of the Lobby multi-player level and grab the rocket launcher. Walk over to the edge of the balcony and start shooting up towards the wall facing the lobby itself. After enough shots you will dig a tunnel to the roof. Walk through and jump right up. You can shoot out the glass and snipe people down on the second level. There also is a Fusion Rocket Launcher that you can grab.


Lobby: Hidden items:
Go to the four corners on the first level of the lobby after you have obtained the rocket launcher in the muti-player level. Use the rocket launcher on the four corners to find health, enviorsuits, a fusionrocket, a flame thrower, and a rail driver.


Installation XJ5: Hidden pit:
In the deathmatch Installation XJ5, you can get outside to the pit. Grab the rocket launcher and jump down, then turn left. Note the archway above. Blast a hole in the wall below the doorway and start building a tunnel straight to the open window. Just going to the archway above and blasting around the window does not work due to an invisible wall. Once you make the tunnel all the way through, you can look down into the pit below, If you drop down, you will always die. Turn to the left or right and blast a hole big enough to jump into (make the hole on the outside of the wall). Jump into the hole, then make another hole directly in front of you but down slightly. Now that you have made another hole, jump into it. Make sure the hole is not too far down, or you will die from the fall. Repeat this process until you have reached the bottom of the pit. Note: It is next to impossible to get back up once you are down there.


Mercs Base: Entering:
After the crash site, you will follow a system of tunnels and ridges filled with enemies (most with heavy machine guns, some with fusion rockets and rail drivers). When you meet the Red Faction miner in the caves, he will say that he will watch your back. At this time you will follow a tall tunnel to a bridge -- you do not want to be on the bridge. Between the miner and the bridge is a turn off that leads to a catwalk going over the bridge. Kill the two gaurds and follow the catwalk until it stops at a hole in the wall. Jump from the catwalk into the hole and follow it until you get the grenades. Use them to kill the turrets and the fusion rocket carrying guard on the other side of the large rock by the grenades. This saves time and health you would have spent trying to fight the guard and the turrets.


The Shooting Gallery: Avoiding damage:
When nearing the end of the game in single player mode, you will have to catch the tram to proceed to the next area. The tram is located immediately after "The Shooting Gallery." In order to avoid fighting most of the guards, equip the Heavy Machine Gun. Next, proceed down the track towards the small door to the left. Inside, kill the guard. Once the other guards stop rushing in and shooting at you, collect the health vial (just behind the desk), dash out of the room, head towards the front right side corner of the train, and duck down immediately. This will prevent gun fire from hitting your character. Stay ducked down until the loading screen appears.


Waste Disposal: Easy kills:
In multi-player mode on the Waste Disposal level, swim down under the platform to find a fusion rocket. You can also use mines to blow holes under the doors into the hallway. When bots come by, they will fall into the water for an easy kill.

Mortars

If you want to use mortars in multiplayer than follow these simple steps. First go to any level that has a sky (warlords is a good one). Next get a rocket launcher or fusion rocket launcher. Then go into a spot where you have clear view of the sky directly above you. Then aim up and fire. After a few seconds your rocket will run out of fuel and fall back down to the ground. This is good in Warlords to go on top of the fort and fire at the computer. It will take sometime to get used to aiming the mortars but its fun and cool.

Roof Top

In the lobby go up the ramp get the rocket launcher start to go down the ramp a few steps then turn left or right toward the wall (the wall that is facing the rocket launcher at the bottom of the lobby then start to blow holes in the wall in front of you (kind of upward) keep on going when you see the sky through your hole your just made go up you will be at the roof of the lobby there is a fusion rocket launcher and a rail gun.

Third level in lobby

In the lobby multiplayer level, you can reach the third level of the lobby (the roof) by blasting through the wall of the ramp.  There is a railgun and fusion rocket launcher up there.  You will know if it is the right side of the roof if you can see arches on the other side of the wall.

Extra Sub

After you`ve gotten to the Sub Bay and encountered the fist enemy sub in the area where there is a round hole in the floor. Stop over the hole and look around when you see a crack in wall blow it and go in side, at the end of the tunnel there is a cave and in that cave there is an extra Sub with 700health and 20torpedoes.

Hidden Pit

In the deathmatch:Installation XJ5, you can get outside to the pit! here is what you do Grab the rocket launcher and jump down turn left...see the archway above?
Blast a hole in the wall below the doorway and start building a tunnel stright to the open window One might ask why do all this work when you can just go to the archway above and start blasting around the window? Well it doesn't work for some reason...there is like an invisible wall which wont let you pass Once you make the tunnel all the way through, you can look down into the pit below
If you drop down, you will always die! Turn to the left or right and blast a hole big enough to jump into (you make the hole on the outside of the wall) Jump into the hole and then make another hole straight in front of you but down a little ways
Now that you have made another hole, jump into it Make sure the hole isn't to far down or you will die from the fall Repeat this process until you have reached the bottom of the pit. Remind you that it is next to impossible to get back up once youre down there

Kill bots easily (Deathmatch)

Any round that has a bridge, launch a few rockets at the floor to make a several holes.  The Bots will run over it and either get stuck or fall through to an uncertain but unfortunate doom.

Bottom of Badlands

You will notice in this level there are natural bridges over a giant pit which if you fall, you will die. Im going to tell you how to get to the bottom without dieing.

First of all, this will be hard if you have more than 2 bots, so don't select more than 2
If you want to try this alone and see how to do it first that would be highly recommended.
Find the rocket launcher that's next to a bridge
Go on the bridge and face the flat wall that leads to the bottom
At a 45 degree angel start blowing holes downwards until you have almost reached the bottom
This is the hard part...now you have to jump and try to make it into the first hole you created....you will lose some health here from the fall.
Once you are there, go backwards out of the hole and slowly...i mean slowly drop down to the next hole and repeat this pattern until you get to the bottom!
Save at least 1 rocket so you can kill yourself cause the bots will not be able to get to you
This is hard to do when playing against bots cause of them shooting at you...set the timer to 30min.
Take a lot of weapons with you like :Rail Driver and the Sniper Riffle. Of coarse you will have the rocket launcher so why do you start blowing up the natural bridges from the bottom...don't do it completely, but just enough to watch all the stupid bots plunge to their deaths!

Kill Capet Easily and other Cheats

To kill capet whip out the sub machine gun and go to the second level floor in the area and shoot at him while dodging his energy blasts and it will take a few clips to take him out.

misc cheats
#1.to have easy multiplayer games go to the lobby or the mines and blow acouple holes in the wall and plants mines every where and explode them when you see people running, or use the rail gun to take out people in passages
#2.The best weapons against mercs is the precision rifle, everything else bb guns to there armor or are too slow one exception is a heavy machine gun.
#3.use the rail gun to scope out areas or rooms before you go into them.
#4.For fun save in a different slot every time you encounter a new vehicle so you can ride in it anytime you want.

Warlords Bar-BQ Party

Pick warlords Level on Multiplayer. Now go to fort Entrance. Shot at one of the Door edges, it will reveal a hole in the ground, continue to shot into the hole. and start to shape a Trench towards the middle of the doorway,  now open it more by trimming into the fort making the trench wider, after you've mastered this trench bedding, The Stupid enemy will always fall in, leaving you to throw a napalm of fire and toast them on the pit. Do you like yours well done dear?

Sniper Rifle

At the part where the elevator shakes and then falls to the bottom and kills you and the only way to save yourself is to grab hold of the ladder well if you grab the ladder just after you get on and start it up and press L2 just following the elevator there will be an opening with some little plants and so forth go through the opening and then you will come to a area that you have to jump across and once you jump on the other side you will find a sniper Rifle with some ammo and from that position you can take out some guards that will be there in your way later then exit and go down the ladder to the opening and continue on

Secret fishing area

In story mode in the mines, you will inevitably have to destroy the security vehicle.  After you destroy it, you have to get on an elevator.  Instead of going to the top look, and you will see a cave entrance.  Enter this cave, and you will see a lake with a bunch of fish swimming around.  Pull out you r hand-gun and blow up the fishes.  There is a pretty good blood effect.

Different Face (Hendrix)

In story mode,On level 19 THE FINAL BATTLE  after you've killed all the mercenaries in the Hanger Control Room, and also after Colonel Masako kills Hendrix walk up to him and look down at his face and it'll be white not black.Metal Gear Solid Rocks!

Ape God Hendix

On the 18th level in the mainframe computer room walk up to Hendrix, talk to him, get close to his face,look through the Precision rifile at his face and he'll look like an ape god. CAMERON VANDERLINDEN and CORY BROX ROCK!!!

A Lot More Boom!!!

When playing in multiplayer and sometimes in the adventure mode:
1)Get the Fusion Rocket Launcher
2)Get some Remote Charges(these two weapons are only found in the same level at Installation XJ5 and the Sewage Plant-I can't remember it's exact name)
3)Place a Remote Charge on a fully-visible platform
4)Use the Fusion Rocket Launcher to detonate the Charge
TIP:this is much better when you commit suicide to keep laying down the charges.
But after you put down about twenty, an explosion with 50 is almost the same.
WHY DO THIS?:it's funny to ambush bots by using this technique because when you see the entire screen go completely white, you aren't able to find their bodies!



The Badlands Fusion Rocket Launcher

When in the Badlands for multiplayer, find the little hills that slope upwards most (they lead to the  top level paths).  Now find on one of the two sloped hills, the Flamethrower.
If you're looking up the hill directly on the spot on where the Flamethrower was, then when you look to your left you'll see a hole.  You might have to widen it, but in the hole is the Fusion Rocket Launcher.

Hint: Lots of guns

At the main trash disposal facility destroy the combat by luring him into the pit and go to that big circular area where you saw the combat and head to the top and grab all the items. In the medical labs, do not put on the lab coat and you will have a lot of guns.

Parkers Twin

Here is something pretty weird I found by mistake.  In Story Mode get to the place where you first encounter the APC. After you blow up the APC then move on to the next area that has the elevator.  once on the elevator press the button and jump off into a secret cave.  Walk through and you'll find a small pond.  Inside the pond there will be a body.  Swim down to it and pick it up with X. Carry it back tp the Previous area and drop it again with X. Look at the face.  Is it just me or does that resemble Parker in a big way?

Secret Sniping Area in Warlords

In case you haven't found out already, warlord's geo-mods potential is amazing. Here is just an example: go to the top of one of the towers. On the left side of the top, blow a hole. It's always good to a human player helping you who will follow you with his rail gun so you don't get lost in the cliff. Dig at a 50 grade angle (45 degree) until you get to the top of the cliff. Do not go above the top or else it will get all glitchy and messed up. From here, you can snipe down with your rail gun or sniper rifle on anyone on the map.

Also try digging a trench between the 2 bases. You can dig tunnels, too. It's amazing what a few geo-mods can produce.




Train glitch

When you are in the train where you meet the merc with a rail driver walk backwards out of the train and you will be pulled along by the train until the blast doors when you will fall off. it doesn't work all the time though so keep trying.
