Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter - Strategy Guide (Page 05)

Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter - Strategy Guide (Page 05).

--------------
Q: ARE IS THERE A WAY TO SWITCH HANDGUN AND GRENADE WEAPONS?
 --------------
A: The grenades always come with frag and smoke options and you can carry 
them 
both at the same time, but there are no other available options. The handgun 
is 
always the same and there are never any others to choose from. 


--------------
Q: CAN I RECOVER HEALTH AT ALL?
--------------
A: You can view your total health as a percentage on the map screen, if you 
are
damaged below 65% and 25% your health will only recharge to those points
and your health display will change to yellow or red accordingly.

You can move your health back up a step by going to an ammo box, kit
container or if you enter an APC. This works for you and your squad but not
support units (whose health doesn't recharge at all). Your health will also
be fully restored at the Ghost Truck.


--------------
Q: HUH? WHY ARE YOU MISSION TITLES DIFFERENT TO WHAT APPEARS AT THE START?
--------------
A: Because they are the names of the location you start in, the mission title 
is 
found by pressing start and going into statistics, it's in the top left of 
that 
menu.


--------------
Q: WHAT IS THE BEST TEAM TO USE?
--------------
A: That doesn't seem to matter, you could argue Ramirez is slightly more
accurate then the other Ghosts but aside from that they're just all governed
by the same ally NPC AI.


--------------
Q: WTF! I'M ON THE BULLDOG MISSION, I HAVE CLEARED THE SECOND ROAD BLOCK BUT 
NOTHING HAPPENED!
 --------------
A: This is a common glitch, if after clearing the second roadblock on Bulldog 
the tanks don't move then you have encountered it. Reload the last save from 
the 
pause menu and try again. Buddy has to say 'Good Job!' if he does then it has 
worked, if not make sure there are no more enemies before reloading to save 
yourself some time.


--------------
Q: I'M STUCK ON THIS PART, CAN I EMAIL YOU?
--------------
A: By all means, just make sure that what you need is not in the guide. If 
what
is in is not working or otherwise causing difficulty, email away! Contact 
detailsin the above section.


--------------
Q: WHAT IS THAT SECOND, LONGER SONG PLAYED ON THE END CREDITS?
--------------
A: All along the watchtower - an original song to the game



!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-------------------------
STORY LINE Q&A (SPOILERS!)
-------------------------
-------------------------

--------------
Q: AT THE START OF MISSION 2, WHAT WAS ALL THAT TALK ABOUT NICARAGUANS, THE 
REBELS ARE MEXICAN?!
--------------
A: They are indeed. GUARDRAIL IX was in Nicaragua when its team was ambushed 
and 
captured / killed. The Nicaraguans then went to Mexico and sold the black 
project to the Mexican Rebel leader Carlos Ontiveros. All of this was 
arranged 
by a retired US General who plays no active role in person throughout the 
game.


--------------
Q: WHY AT THE END OF THE GAME DOES CARLOS ONTIVEROS START BEING CALLED 
GENERAL, 
I THOUGHT THAT WAS HIS FATHER, IS IT HIM OR WHAT?
--------------
A: Although it is never seen, it seems Carlos kills his father, or he somehow 
dies, and Carlos takes the rank upon himself. This is further supported by 
General Ontiveros is confirmed to be in the palace* during the second to last 
mission, but never actually appears. 

*Read the mission synopsis on the level select screen.

Chances are this was supposed to appear as transmissions throughout this 
level, 
but for unknown reasons was cut from the final game.


--------------
Q: WHY DID CARLOS ONTIVEROS SEEM TO KNOW MITCHELL IN THE FINAL LEVEL?
--------------
A: Probably because he heard Bud talking to him, however it seems he spent 
some 
time in the US (he trained at the Academy) so perhaps Mitchall knew him from 
there.


--------------
Q: IS THERE A WAY TO STOP SALVATORE AND HIS SQUAD FROM BEING KILLED IN THE 
QUATERBACK MISSION?
--------------
A: Nope, it's scripted


--------------
Q: HANG ABOUT, THAT ARRESTED GENERAL IN THE END SEQUENCE, DID WE MEET HIM?
--------------
A: As stated before, the traitor general plays no part to Mitchall and the 
Ghosts in the story


--------------
Q: WHENEVER ONTIVEROS COME ONTO THE ROOF IN THE LAST MISSION, HE SHOOTS 
DIRECTLY 
AT A WALL IN FRONT OF HIM AND SUBSEQUENTLY BLOWS HIMSELF UP! 
--------------
A: Game AI (not just GRAW) has always been notoriously spotty when it comes 
to 
NPCs with rocket launchers, this is one example. Anyway he doesn't blow 
himself 
up ALL the time, just most of it.

--------------
Q: IS IT JUST ME, OR DOES CARLOS HAVE RED EYES? ALSO, AFTER HE DIES WHY DON'T 
WE 
GET THE FOOTBALL OFF HIM
--------------
A: It certainly looks like it doesn't it. As for the football, it could be
assumed it's either destroyed by the fall or is later retrieved by US Forces.
