Prototype Unlock Body Surfing: -------------------- Select "Extras" from the Main Menu and go to "Cheats" Right, Right, Left, Down, Up, Up, Up, Down - Unlock Body Surf Ability. New Game+ Mode: --------------- New Game+ Mode - finish the non-plus mode of a game such a Normal to enable Normal+ mode and the like. In Game+ mode, Alex's skills are unlocked at the start. Thermobaric Tank: ----------------- First you must unlock the Kill Event called "Rolling Thunder," which appears between the East Village and the Lower East Side (one block from the East coast). Right next to the Event is a Thermobaric Tank. Jumping into it will activate the Event, but you can back out of it before the Event begins. Do this correctly and you'll have a free tank. Note: If you exit the tank it or use it to destroy a Hive or Base it will vanish. You can grab it again at the Event point. Platinum/Radical Events: ------------------------ To unlock the extremely difficult Platinum events, earn Gold in every event. There are also Radical events to unlock which are almost impossible. Mind the Crows: --------------- Infected water towers are always circled by squawking crows. This makes it easier to track them down Unlimited EP Exploit: --------------------- On mission 22/31, where you get the first cell phone cut scene, you'll be asked to jack a Black ops helicopter. Once you have the helicopter, you are prompted to pick up a few Black Ops guys and then destroy a Hive. Do not destroy the Hive! You now have a helicopter with unlimited missiles, no time limit, and as long as you don't destroy the Hive, you can blow up anything else without it kicking off the alert meter. This also allows you to get out of the helicopter without it ending the mission (useful for collect Memory Strands). The easiest way to get EP in this is to switch to your Infected Vision and fly around blowing up infected water towers. You can save your game in the middle of this mission if you need a break and do the same thing. You can max out your skills and then some using this exploit. Smooth Landing Speed Boost: --------------------------- After jumping, avoid using both of your dashes while airborne and save one to use just before landing. If timed correctly, you should hit the ground at near full speed, which is very useful when attempting to evade the military or during a timed activity. Note: This doesn't work for the highest of drops. Helicopter jumping: ------------------- To do this trick you will need the ability to Jump Kick so that you can fly towards the first helicopter of The Strike team. You can also use the Whipfist's Grab upgrade to latch onto an enemy helicopter. Double Jump can also be useful. To start, jump up and Jump Kick or use the Whipfist Grab to latch onto the first helicopter. Do the button event to kill the pilots. Fly up as high as possible and look for the next target. Make sure to use the Lock On ability. Jump out of the current helicopter and Jump Kick towards the next helicopter. You can keep doing this as long as there are helicopters. If you fall, quickly use the Whipfist Grab. Note: This can be very challenging but if done successfully you can attack numerous helicopters without ever touching the ground. Fly/Longer Gliding: ------------------- You need air dash and glide to do this. Jump into the air and glide, then when you start descending, use air dash and press A twice to fly again. You can repeat this until you run out of air dash, which is 2 max (glide then air dash, glide again then air dash, glide again so... 3 glides and 2 dashes). You can glide for 3 times as long allowing you to cover more ground Defeating the Time Square Boss: ------------------------------- Contrary to popular belief this Boss battle is easy. Long before the battle, purchase all upgrades that allow you to do +3 Devastator attacks, upon max health. It is also a good idea to get all the upgrades you can via "Consume". The Boss is massive. Notice that under her life bar are other bars. These are some what the Boss' stabilizers, making her vulnerable only after you have severed them. At the beginning of the battle she will do a scream attack. Be careful. Scale up a building or whatever else you have to do. It is very easy to avoid. You will also have Hunters and Infected chasing you. Use the full body armor and claws/blade. Max out your health by running around and consuming. It is easy and the only issues you might have are Hunters, though with the upgrades one hunter can nearly boost your life to max, allowing for maximum Devastator attacks. This is one of your first Devastator attacks you will learn. Scale a building, boost over to her, fall, and initiate the attack. You will see quickly that the Boss' stabilizers are being damaged. Note: Every round the stabilizers' life will increase, meaning that you have to follow the tactics in the same way, and it will just take slightly longer. Strike her with the Devastator. You should have a chance for more, unless she does multiple attacks (green orbs that track you, spitting concrete and screaming). The armor reduces the amount of damage inflicted, allowing you enough time in between attacks to initiate the Devastator again. Once the stabilizers are done, she will fall and you can attack normally. She will then retreat (leaving you plenty of red life orbs to consume) before shooting out of the ground again, with more stabilizer life and "backup". Ignore the backup. This tactic works nicely, but if you get low on health, run away from her view and keep consuming. After she falls a total of three times you will have defeated her. Easy experience: ---------------- Note: You can most likely do this trick with any helicopter. Do the mission where you have to steal a helicopter to find the right hunter. You are told to go fly over the Infected area and scan the Infected water towers for a suitable enemy type. Instead of doing that, fly to the Infected area and start shooting the Infected water towers that are around all infected the areas. You get about 8,000 experience points for each. Shoot 25 of them and you will get the achievement or trophy Xbox 360 PlayStation3 for killing the Infected water towers without them hatching. As long as you properly hijack the helicopter and no one suspects you as an enemy, no one will attack you while this is going on. One water tower requires one missile. Make sure to steady it so you do not waste missiles. One flythrough with this helicopter can net you 1,192,000 experience points, assuming you can find one water tower per missile. You can get even more than that if you use your machine gun. After getting about 500,000 experience points, crash the helicopter and repeat the process again from the checkpoint. Note: This trick only works once you acquire the ability to hijack helicopters and have Infected Vision, received later in the game. Hijack a helicopter. Once you do so, activate Infected Vision. Look for the bright orange water towers scattered throughout the level, primarily in the Infected areas. Shoot them with the helicopter's weapons. For each water tower you destroy, you will receive 10,000 experience points, which are important this far in the game. Note: Water towers respawn continuously for unlimited experience points. An easy way to get experience points is to get a helicopter, preferably without alarm. Go to any Infected area and search for water towers containing Hunters. These are easily found by going to the area where the crows are circling. This indicates where an Infected water tower is located. Lock on to it and blow it up with a rocket. It should only take one with a direct hit. You will receive 8,000 experience points per water tower. With 200 rockets in an attack helicopter you can get 1,600,000 total experience points. Then using the machine gun, destroy forty more towers. You can then use the remaining homing missiles to blow up a hive for more points. Get another helicopter and repeat the process. The water towers will respawn after a short amount of time. Gameinfo: --------- In Prototype, players take control of Alex Mercer – a dark, genetically mutated shape-shifter with no memory of his past, hell-bent on solving the mystery of his existence as he tears through a densely populated New York City moving with Parkour-style fluidity and consuming anything that gets in his way. Deceive or Destroy gameplay allows gamers the choice to either blend in with the population and covertly progress through the story, or fully unleash Alex’s powers, and move through New York City like a walking slaughterhouse, taking control of military vehicles, and causing destruction at every turn. Attack animations: ------------------ When consuming enemies, use different attack powers such as the Whipfist or the Blade to see different animations. Each attack power has a few animations to show off. Defeating the final Boss: ------------------------- Quickly switch to Armor and Blade after the cinematic ends. Having Infected Vision will help. Stay away from the Boss until he starts to jump. After he lands, attack him with an Air Blade Slash. He will become stunned after a few good hits. Grab him and repeatedly punch. If you are taken down to critical level, use a Devastator move to stun him.
