Mastering the Murder Ballet: Essential Moves
- Embrace the Slide: Forget walking, sliding is the name of the game. It lets you dodge attacks, reposition yourself like a blood-soaked breakdancer, and chain kills with stylish efficiency.
- The Art of the Pre-emptive Strike: Don't wait for trouble to find you. See an enemy through a doorway? Slide in, greet them with a warm shotgun blast - or a flying cleaver, for that extra flair.
- The Humble Punch: Underrated but oh-so-useful. A well-timed punch can stun enemies, opening them up for a brutal follow-up. Plus, it's silent - perfect for those sneaky takedowns.
Master these moves, and you'll be a ballet of violence in no time!
Weapons: Choosing Your Instruments of Destruction
- The Mighty Meat Cleaver: A classic for a reason. Fantastic range, brutal damage, and lets you feel like a total badass. Just don't get caught reloading in a crowd.
- The Trusty Shotgun: Simple, effective, and perfect for those "oh crap" moments when you're surrounded. Just remember, collateral damage is a thing.
- The Allure of the Assault Rifle: Sprays bullets like a fire hose, great for clearing rooms. But ammo is limited, so use it wisely. Unless you fancy becoming a glorified punching bag.
There's a weapon for every situation, find what works for you and unleash the mayhem!
Tip: Take mental snapshots of important details.
Advanced Techniques: For When You Want to Style on the Streets
- Mask Mastery: Different masks offer unique perks. Experiment and find one that compliments your playstyle. The "F**kface" mask may make you a walking target, but the extra speed is great for aggressive players.
- Environmental Awareness: Those glass windows aren't just for show. Use them to your advantage! A well-placed shot can shatter glass, raining razor-sharp shards on unsuspecting goons.
- Chaining Kills: The key to high scores. The longer your kill combo, the more points you rack up. Get creative, mix up your weapons, and paint the town red... well, more red.
Become one with the environment, master the masks, and your kill combos will be the stuff of legend!
