Call of Duty: Finest Hour Hints (PS2)

Get to the secret areas

Call of Duty: Finest Hour is a video game developed by Spark Unlimited and published by Activision Publishing. The game was created for the PlayStation 2 gaming console from Sony, for the Game Cube and for the Xbox from Microsoft. It is classed as a war shooter played from a third person perspective with sequences played in first person view. There is a strong historical aspect evident in the game, with several real world battles simulated.The Call of Duty series was initially released on the PC and the way it managed to capture the feel of war while delivering competent first person shooter gameplay impressed critics and gamers. The series was a success and console versions were quickly planned. Call of Duty: Finest Hour is the first of the Call of Duty games that was released on gaming consoles. There are three different fronts of the World War II that are simulated in the game and the story is told from the point of view of three different soldiers, a British, an American and a Russian. You have to play through each section of the game in succession, as a new mission is unlocked only once you complete the one before it. The game is heavily scripted, with some of the larger operations depicted in minute details and with the player often being relegated to a minor role on the battlefield as the great clash happens all around him. The production values of the title are very high, with great music and brilliant voice acting. GAMEPLAY HINTSAirfield Ambush: Easy completionThere will be a tower with two Nazis in it right where you start. Watch out because they have Panzerscrecks. Shoot it down then proceed to your left, following the other tanks. After you make the left, follow the path to the right. There will be about seven or eight people on your left and right. Some of them have Panzersrecks. Shoot two missiles then proceed. You will have to cross some train tracks. When you are over them, there will be Nazis with Panzersrecks and some in tanks. A few missiles will take care of them. Move onto the northern airfield. Shoot a missile at a plane, then use the machine gun to destroy the rest of it. There will be some tanks and Nazis on foot. Again, they are easy; a few missals with the occasional machine gun will do the trick. After the nine planes are destroyed, there will be short intermission sequence of a door opening. Go through it and out the other side to your left. There will be three Nazis on your left and one on your right. They all have Panzerschrecks. Ignore the man on the right. When you get into the main airfield, stay on the right side. Turn your barrel to your left and fire at the oncoming planes. There will also be a trench on your left with Nazis in it. They will die easily. Go straight and to the left up the hill. After a few seconds of traveling you must get out of your tank and continue on foot. Go to your left behind the overturned jeep and shoot the Nazis. Then, proceed to do this one more time after moving forwards a short distance. Enter the trench on your right and crawl slowly. When you see machine gun fire, get up and quickly run through the trench. When the trench ends, get out. You will see a few Nazis with some guns and a jeep. Kill The Nazis, then jump in the back of the jeep. There will be a health pack and a Panzershreck. Drop the weapon with the lowest ammunition and get the Panzershreck. Jump out of the jeep and shoot the two machine gunners. One is on the balcony of the house and the other is in a tank to your left. Drop the Panzershreck as you will not get any more ammunition for it. Pick up your old gun. Run up to the tank, turn right, then go up the stairs and open the door. There will be three Nazis. Shoot them then proceed through the house, killing all of the Nazis. You also do not need to go through all the doors. Once the house is clear, pick up the documents on the table on the second highest floor. Once this is done you have completed the Russian campaign.Come Out Fighting: Secret areas There are two secret areas in this level. The first is found at the first house where you have to exit your tank. Go to the barn door and jump at the wall to the left

of it. You will go through the wall into a room with a giant chair and a very small door with a green light shining out. There are also two health packs in the room. The second secret area is at the second house. Go inside and clear out the house. In the back room on the right is a window where you can shoot the machine gunner that was shooting at you while you were coming into the house. Go back downstairs and outside. Jump over the sandbags and onto the barbed wire. Follow it to the house. Here's a trailer:
