Mercenaries: Playground Of Destruction Cheats (PlayStation 2)

This is an incredibly powerful helicopter gunship that is armed with rapid-fire 30mm
cannon (grenade launcher), anti-air missiles, anti-tank missiles, and dumb-fire rockets.
You must have an anti-armor rifle and a RPG or anti tank rocket. Grenades work somewhat,
but are not recommended. You cannot use an anti air. Find one flying (try the North
Korean Allied MASH, when you complete the second ACE contract you will "unlock" this).
Once you are there, find a YAH-56 Gunship with the binoculars. Then, go to it and make
sure it is over flat land. Take out your RPG or your anti tank rocket and shoot above it.
It will fly down slightly. Then, take out your anti armor rifle and shoot the pilot
(located the back seat of the helicopter). If you cannot see him through the glass, shoot
under the cockpit. Once he is dead, you will have about $25, 000 depleted and your
helicopter should land on the ground safely. Try again if it falls on its side or
something else happens. Do not be afraid of the tail rotor. If it is half way in a rock,
it does not effect it. Note: This strategy can be used with any helicopter.

you entered the code correctly, you will hear the sound of a click.

At the PDA factions screen, press Right, Left, Right(2), Left, Right, Left(2). If you
entered the code correctly, you will hear the sound of a click.

Enable the "Infinite health" code and shoot the vehicle until it starts to burn. Jump in
and drive off. Alternately, get into the car and drive it into something until its health
gets under 20. As soon as this happens, press Select and enable the "Infinite health"
code. Note: This trick does not work on helicopters. They will only bounce around
on the ground when you try to take off.

At the PDA factions screen, press Up, Down, Up, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right.
Alternately, press Up, Down, Up, Left(2), Right(3) at the PDA factions screen. If you
entered the code correctly, you will hear the sound of a click. Repeat this code to
disable its effect. The effect of this code will end after the current contract is
completed. Note: If this code is enabled while in a vehicle, it will also have
infinite health.

At the PDA factions screen, press Right, Down, Left, Up(2), Left, Down, Right. If you
entered the code correctly, you will hear the sound of a click.

After you have captured or killed the Ace of Diamonds, you will be sent to the northern
MASH. There should be a tent by the man who takes you between the north and southern
areas. Once you find it, your character will be able to switch costumes.

After capturing or killing the Ace Of Clubs, pay attention to the scrolling text at the
bottom of the newscast. It is easier to see if you have the subtitles turned off.
Eventually the text will read "Tipoca City: clones cloned." This refers to Pandemics Star
Wars games, Clone Wars, and the Kamino level of Battlefront. Additionally, when you go to
the South Korean base to accept the first South Korean mission from Buford, after he
explains the mission, you can leave, accept it, or wait. If you wait, Buford will say he
has a plane that is as powerful as a "Star Destroyer" in that "space movie". Also, after
you capture or verify the Ace of any suit, you will see a news story. Watch the bottom of
the screen. The scrolling text will eventually have a Star Wars reference, such as
after the Ace of Diamonds "Coriscant, Lawsuit filed over space station's faulty exhaust
system".

Note: This trick requires a sniper rifle is required. Immediately after you are
dropped off, take out your sniper rifle and shoot the pilot of the helicopter that
dropped you off. If done at the correct moment, the helicopter will fall with barely any
damage done to it. Note: This is easier with the "Infinite health" and "All
factions neutral" cheats enabled. If you do not have a sniper rifle, call in for one and
shoot the pilot of that helicopter. Successfully complete all the steps and it should
work.

Enable the "Infinite health" code, then purchase a North Korean helicopter or a Mafia
Scout helicopter. Then, go to any Allied MASH. Go above the helicopters and repeatedly
slam into them until they explode. You will not lose any faction points for the Allies.

will be repaired with full ammunition at no cost.

press R2 rapidly to change weapons. The faster you change weapons, the faster you will
shoot.

the original supply drop for free. Note: This works for cars, supplies, and some
air strikes. It does not work for laser guided airstrikes.

On your first Mafia mission, when you go into the headquarters and you are about to do the
contract, accept it before he is done talking (but not too early). You may have to save
the game and repeat this a few times before it works. If you accept the contract at the
correct moment, the Boss will wave his gun around; but if you accept it, his arm will not
move and only the gun will float.

To skip out on paying the $10,000 when you warp to the Medivac, save the game. Load the
game and you will appear at the Medivac, but not have to pay the $10,000.

You can ride in a helicopter such as a UH 60 or any other helicopter that has guns that
you can man. First, get a UH 60 then get about three South Korean ROKA soldiers. These
are the only ones that will fly the helicopter. Get them all in the helicopter then fly
to some enemies. Get out and get on a gun. Usually one of the soldiers will get in and
fly the helicopter. You can now ride and shoot down on the enemies. Note: Once in
the air you will not be able to get out unless your helicopter is shot downm or you
somehow land and hit the ground. Also, this only works in the North province.

In many parts of the map, NK forces have helicopters stashed without pilots that you can
climb into and fly. The hills surrounding the helicopters however, have A.A. tanks that
cannot be reached by foot or vehicle. As soon as you try to take off, the helicopters get
destroyed. To get around this, fly very low. As soon as you enter the helicopter, you can
see the A.A. tanks on your map. Stay low enough to keep out of their range. If the symbol
for the A.A. tanks starts flashing, drop the helicopter immediately until the blades stop.
Continue this until you either fly off successfully with the helicopter, or you die.

Pick up a fully packed car and take it to the fight for more firepower. The soldier in
the turret will shoot on or off the winch at any enemies that he sees. Try using the
YAH-56 Gunship and the Mafia Technical (GL) Delivery for this. Additionally, use the
winch to pick up some C4. You can now drop it off or throw it anywhere desired, then fly
to a save location to detonate it. However, you cannot fly too far away from it.

Take a powerful helicopter, such as the Allies UH-60. Find any car or object that is
metal. Drop down the winch and pick up the car. This might require a few attempts. When
you have the car on your magnet, you can drop it on the roof of something and watch it
drive off; or go as high as possible, drop the car, and try beating it to the ground.

destroyed. The tank will not be able to fire at you while you are doing this. However, be
careful; when you stop it will get a direct hit on you.

Put a some C4 on the hood of your car, before you do the "Drive a flaming vehicle" trick.

If you are low on cash and need a quick boost, hijack some cars from the North Koreans and
line them up so that they are all close together. The bigger they are, the more money you
will get. For example, line up a group of Sungri Scouts. Take a C4 charge on the car that
is in the middle. Blow it up and a chain reaction will blow up all the cars and give you a
major cash boost. You can also steal cars and sell them to the Mafia at their garage by
Mafia HQ. Each car is worth a different amount of money.

Do not waste ammunition. Some missions involve blowing up artillery, or just have
artillery in the area. Instead of blowing it up, you can kill the man inside and use the
artillery yourself. This can save you from running around to each individual artillery
cannon, as you can shoot them from a distance.
