File 01: [Startup]

01 - Cases and S+ Ranks

Chapter 1 - Rush

Red Case #1 - Hot Pursuit

If enemies are on the screen, lean on the fire button and don't let up. "Not a Scratch" is not necessary for this, but it certainly helps. You're dealing with a bunch of Filthwings, the fire-dropping van, and the truck with all the Abs on it, not to mention all the abandoned cars. Don't forget that you can press B to basically become intangible to collisions. It might take a few tries to get familiar with the pattern. Just make sure don't collide with anything to get Defensive Driver. There's little to whittle down in time here.

Chapter 2 - Forecast

Blue Case #1 - Highway Rescue

Required by the Story

Red Case #2 - Aberration Assault

Since you won't have Legions, they didn't bother making this too difficult to get, and it is just Aberrations. If you're having trouble come back when you've got the Gladius unlocked.

Red Case #3 - Fighting Back

Once you have the full moveset with Sync Attacks (and maybe a couple more Legions), this becomes easier. You have Infantry, Aberrations, and Claws to beat here. The Laius is faced alone, so it shouldn't be a problem.

CyricZ started writing to get all the thoughts in his head about video games onto paper and it got out of hand.
