This meter builds up as you perform various tricks. The more complicated the trick, the faster it will build up. Once it's full, it'll start glowing, at which point you'll be able to pull off special moves which you'll unlock as you finish certain missions. You'll also be able to go into Focus Mode, which is basically a slowed-down, bullet time feature which will make it easier for you to pull off crazy-difficult tricks and combos that seemingly last for days. Note, however, that your special meter will run down as you stay in Focus Mode, and you'll have to keep pulling off tricks in order to keep the meter full. Building Up Stats There are 10 different skill categories that you'll need to build up by gaining Stat Points. In order to build these up in Story Mode, you will need to complete various sponsor challenges that can be found on near the entrances of the Skate Shops in every different area. Once you accept these challenges, you'll have to complete them before the end of the day as measured by the in-game clock. These challenges range from scoring a certain number of points on one combo to performing a specific trick for a specific length of time. Try to wait until early in the morning to start these challenges, so that you'll have a good amount of time to complete them all. BMX One of the new features in Tony Hawk's American Wasteland is the ability to ditch your board, hop on a BMX and tear up the city two-wheel style. The controls are fairly similar to those used when on the skateboard, so you should have no problem adjusting. You'll have to use the BMX to complete a few missions in Story Mode, but the real fun is to meet up with Rick Thorne who's stationed in different spots in every area. He'll teach you how to pull off some rad bike moves and even give you some money for completing them in a certain amount of time. You can find the BMX in each level by heading towards the white bike marker on the map screen and you can find Mr. Thorne by heading towards the blue bike marker. Gettin' Paid In order to buy stuff like clothes, tattoos and gear, you'll have to earn some money. You'll also need money to complete certain missions in Story Mode. You can earn it by doing 3 things in each area: tagging, bike tricks, and impressing the Random Dude. Tagging opportunities can be found by seeking out Muton whose position is indicated by the yellow spray can on the map screen. He'll pay you to help him tag certain spots around town. These gigs are usually very easy to complete and are the easiest ways of making money in any city. Note, however, that you'll only be able to help him out 5 or 6 times in each different area. Bike tricks opportunities can be found by talking to Rick Thorne, as mentioned above. With these, you'll usually just have to pull off a certain bike-specific trick a few times. You can find the Random Dude in each map by heading towards the green dollar sign marker on the map screen. He'll ask you to perform a series of tricks that he'll call out in a certain amount of time. If you don't have your stats up in the category of trick that he's calling out, these can be a little difficult. So get them stats up! Travelling Buses are available in each area to help you get from area to area quickly. They're indicated on your map with a white logo that looks strangely bus-like. If you're in the Skate Ranch area, you can travel by using the truck near the entrance. The Freaks Freak Out At Night Another sweet feature of Tony Hawk's American Wasteland is the Freakout Meter. This will pop up when you attempt to land a trick on your face instead of your board. Quickly tap the grind button to build up the meter and if you fill it up enough, you'll earn a few bonus points that will be applied to your next combo. Now March! You have the ability to hop off your board and run around town at any time, if you happen to be in the mood. This feature can actually be crucial when you need to come to a full stop in order to line up a trick or look around the screen. You can also hop off your board in the middle of a combo, run around for a little while, then hop back on your board and complete the combo. Easy Combos There are a few tricks you can pull off that make it easy to string together a massively long combo that will give you points in the 100,000 range. Lip tricks, rail stalls and the Natas Spin all require you to stay still and keep from losing your balance. If you can stay balanced and perform a long string of doubletap tricks while staying stationary, you'll be able to increase up your multiplier very rapidly. Going into Focus Mode while in the midst of these tricks will make it so easy to stay balanced, that you could go grab a sandwich, come back and still be pulling off the trick. Create A Trick The Create A Trick feature allows you to totally customize a special trick that you can then use anytime you want in the game. You can edit everything from the duration of the trick to what type of grab you pull off while performing the trick to how much you'll rotate while doing the trick. You can find inspiration points in each area that will allow you to edit tricks by heading towards the yellow light bulb icon on the map. Create A Graphic The Create a Graphic feature lets you whip up your own personal graffiti tag that you can spray anywhere you please in the Story Mode areas. Choose from dozens upon dozens of different tags and graphics, layer them on top of each other any way you want and change the color to your heart's content. Note: you'll have to help Muton tag up the different parts of town in order to unlock each area's specific set of graphics. Story Mode Welcome to L.A. - Hollywood Suit Up You've arrived in beautiful La-La Land and you've already made a friend in skater chick Mindy. But if you're gonna stick around for a while, you'll need to deep six those countrified clothes A.S.A.P. First, head to the barber shop right next to where you're standing and switch up your hairstyle. You start with $120 and you'll need some money for clothes in a bit, so don't go too nuts. When you're done, head to the clothing store which is right next door and suit up. When you're done, go over to Mindy who'll introduce you to her friend Ian. Da Caveman Ian will teach you how to do a Caveman, which is just hopping off your board and running around. He'll also show you how to grind a railing. Finally, you'll have to combine the two to pull off a caveman grind. These may seem pretty easy, and they are, but you'll be using them a lot so it's good to get them down. Sponsor Challenge Head over to the skate shop and take a look at the sponsor challenge. You'll need to complete these throughout the game in order to build up your stat points. You have until the end of the day (as measured by the in-game clock) to complete the challenges. The list of challenges changes each day and each area's skate shop has 4 different sets of challenges, so if you finish them all in one area, you'll have to go to another area in order to earn more stat points. Kickflip Ben Whofleck Mindy's friend Duane will teach you a few more rad tricks, but first you'll have to do him a favor by doing a kickflip over Ben Whofleck's head in order to make him look like even more of a loser. Head over to the movie theatre, which is to the left of the skate shop, and line yourself up with the velvet ropes. Grind the first one and ollie over Whofleck's head just before the rope ends. You'll have to do a kickflip while in the air, so you may want to practice it a bit before you start this mission. Land on the next rope in a grind. Manual Duane is now ready to teach you how to do the Manual and Revert tricks. First you'll just have to manual 3 times. When you start a manual, a balance meter will show up. Try to keep the ball in the middle of the meter for as long as you need to complete the trick. If you go to far in the red direction, you'll fall off. Too far in the green, and you'll end your trick. The same is true of grinds, liptricks and rail stalls. After this, you'll need to manual from Tony Hawk's star to Tony Alva's. If mess up, hop off your board and run back to start to save time. Or you can always just go to the pause menu and select Retry Mission to put you back in your starting position. The trick to this is to start as close as possible to Tony Hawk's star, so you won't have to balance for too long. Revert Meet up with Duane again at the Dog & Cello restaurant to learn how to revert. To do this, you'll just need to press the revert button as your landing back down after getting air in off a quarter-pipe. This trick will be crucial throughout the game because it allows you to string together air tricks into a longer combo. Take What's Yours Head over to the halfpipe in the north-east part of town to deal with the punk who stole your gear. You'll need to outscore him by doing a bunch of air tricks in the pipe. He'll keep up with you for most of the duration of the contest, so just do some basic kickflips and grabs until there's only a few seconds left. Make your final trick a big one and make sure to land it and you should outscore him. After you whoop him up, he'll try to run away. You'll have to knock him off his board by smacking him with yours. He skates in a loop, so all you have to do is hop off your board, wait on the blue ledge opposite the Dog and Cello restaurant and wait for him to skate by you. As he does whack him with your board by pressing the grab button Scare The Protestors Head over to Mindy who's standing by the protestors in the south-west corner of the map. You'll need to scare them away by loosening the dinosaur head at the top of the museum. To do that you'll need to complete some score goals by tricking of the pipes on the roof. You'll first need to complete a 2,000 point combo, then a 5,000 point one and then a 10,000 point one. You can get the first two score goals can be accomplished by doing a couple doubletap flips while in the air. In order to get the 10,000 points you'll need to link tricks done on one pipe to another by reverting as you land, manualing to the other side and then hitting a few more tricks in the air. If you're having trouble and it looks like you may not hit the goal before time runs out, hit Retry Mission in the pause menu so that you won't have to start over from scratch. After you knock the head loose, you'll open the gateway to Beverly Hills. Simply skate up the escalator and through the hallway to get there. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ] |
