Count) on ebay, yahoo auctions, or other such sites

4) If you wish to download this OBC_FAQ and place it on your site, you will

5) If using any part of this OBC_FAQ in your own FAQ, you will give me credit
for whatever part(s) you use.

And for you magazines, both foreign and domestic, here's one just for you:

6) Any magazine found using this OBC_FAQ, for ANY reason, in part OR in full,
will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. I will go to China if I
have to carry out any sort of legal action aganist a magazine.

These rules are not hard to follow, so please do not break them. I have no

The following sites are allowed, by me, to post this FAQ on their site:

Gamefaqs
Gamewinners

While both sites have permission to use this FAQ, Gamefaqs will always have the
newest version.

Lastly, this is not exactly legal info, but this needs to be said before I type
any further: Neither this game, nor this FAQ, nor MYSELF, is/are promoting
anti-Islamic views or messages. While the terrorists in the game look like
Hollywood-typical Middle Eastern terrorists, this is just a GAME. Also remember
that this game was made back in the mid 1990s - at least 6 years before
9/11/01. Remember this little tidbit about terrorists - they come in ALL
nationalities, even here in the USA. Although few in number and even though we
don't like to admit it, even WE have terrorists on our soil. Worse yet, they
are DOMESTIC terrorists. If you can't realize that most Islamic people are
actually good people who just want to live in peace and have condemmed those
responsable for the so-called "holy wars" that kill hundreds every year, then
you should not play this game nor read this document any further for both your
benefit and my own.

R.I.P all those who perished in the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. May
God bless all of those heroic souls who are no longer with us, and those
responsable burn in hell for all eternity.

NOTICE - My hard drive recently got wiped out, and I can not find the game
disc. Therefore, this document is considered the Final Revision. I will no
longer update this guide anymore, as I have indeed double-checked all of the
info contained heirin. Any info that that was still in doubt as of last
week(when my HD got wiped) has been removed or changed. With the execption of
requesting permission to host the guide on your website, please do not e-mail
me about this guide.

1) STORY

NOTE - A friend gave me the game disc, but he did not have the manual, so
everything from here on out is personal experience thru trial-and-error on my
part. Therefore, the story and team name is UNOFFICIAL. If he(or I) find a copy
of the manual I will change this FAQ as necessary. As with the team name and
story, everything is UNOFFICIAL.

Terrorists have taken over the UN Building. As a member of the Government
Assault Team(G.A.T-nice nickname :p)your job is to eliminate the terrorists who
have taken the building. You not only have to eliminate the terrorists, but
also rescue the hostages. You will have to make your way thru the sewers to the
basement of the building - the terrorists will not expect penetration from
there. From there you will have to advance one floor at a time, clearing out
terrorists and freeing hostages as you find them. Eliminate all terrorists on
each floor before advancing. Good luck....you'll need it. Now get going!

2) NO WALKTHROUGH? WHY NOT?

Since no one was intrested in doing a FAQ of any kind of this game, I see no
reason to do a walkthrough. Besides, this is a First Person Shooter were
talking about here - with the only twist is that you have hostages to rescue in
addition to the terrorist killing(and even then you don't see the hostages
until the very end of the game). If you are constantly getting plastered by a
single enemy, then check the section called "Enemies"; I'll list the most
effective ways to eliminate each enemy type.

If you feel that a walkthrough is necessary for this game and want to take the
time to write one, then by all means go ahead and make one. If you just want to
do a walkthrough, I'd be more than happy to place it in my FAQ, giving you
proper credit for it, of course. But unless someone decides to make a
walkthrough, I will not make one. To be honest, I don't have the time to do
one.

3) MAIN MENU
Ah, the famed Main Menu....what? You don't know what I'm talking about?
Just kidding. Ok, here's how the Main Menu is laid out:

View Size - This is how big the "window" of the game is(you know, the part
where all the action is). XS, S, M, L, & XL are your choices. XS(Xtra Small is
the smallest and Xtra Large is the biggest. You can figure out what the others
are, right? :p)

Game Type - The difficulty setting. Settings are as follows:
1 - The easiest setting
2 - The normal/average setting
3 - The hard setting
R - The random setting is kinda like a hybird of the three previous settings.
If you can beat the game in this mode, you should consider joining your local
police department's SWAT team....
N - Network Play. Your standard Deathmatch
T - Same as above, but with teams.
M - Modem. I recently played with this setting and was transported into a room
that was a deathmatch arena made popular in Doom and Duke Nukem. This is a
dial-in type of deathmatch that was avaliable with Doom. Unless your buddies
have a copy and they feel like dialing in, you will have no use for this
setting. If you try to play with it, remember to switch it back to the
difficulty setting of 1, 2, 3, or R to allow you access to the single player
game; the setting is not switched back unless you do so manually.
High Scores - Self Explanatory.

Audio Mix - Your basic sound config options. More advanced ones may be set by
running setup

Start Game - Start the game(duh!)

Continue - An option that is selectable only if going to the Main Menu while
playing a game, this lets you resume your current game.

Abort Game - Another option that can only be accessed by going to the Main Menu
while playing a game, this cancels, or aborts, your current game in progress.

Exit to DOS - quit Operation Body Count and go back to DOS/Windows

Load Game - Loads a saved game

Save Game - Lets you save a game. Only avaliable by going to the Main Menu
during a game(press Esc key to go to Main Menu)

4a) CONTROLS
The controls are as follows:

Move - Up, Down, Left & Right arrow keys
Strafe - hold Alt key
Use/Open - Spacebar
Shoot current weapon - Control(Ctrl) key
F - have your teammates do various actions, from follow you around to fighting
the terrorists to the death
Esc - Exits to the Main Menu
1 - 9 - Select Weapons
TAB - show map
C - Display croshair on-screen
S - Switch to a teammate and make all teammates stop in their tracks. Basically
switches your current self with a teammate, but allows you to keep whatever
weapons/ammo you have found to date.
H - Displays your current health in numbers
W - sometimes during the game, the VIEW SCREEN will get splattered with blood
or, while in the sewers, slime. Pressing W wipes the VIEW SCREEN clear.

4b) SCREEN LAYOUT

Please forgive me for the bad ASCII art:( I put the numbers for each section as
close to(or, in some cases, IN) the bad art they represent during gameplay.

Weapons are NOT displayed.

9/10, and cayan is all dead.
