Bioforge Hints

How can I win in combat?

  • 1 of 6: These hints cover only general hand-to-hand combat.  Some opponents can only be defeated by more clever means -- you'll have to read individual questions on them to figure out what to do in those cases.
  • 2 of 6: First of all, I'd recommend staying in easy mode.  There's really not much point that I can see in playing on harder modes, unless you're really a big arcade fan or a glutton for punishment.
  • 3 of 6: The first thing you need to learn is how to deal with the different camera angles and figure out how to tell where your character is pointing.  This is really a matter of practice more than it is anything that I can explain in hints.
  • 4 of 6: Then, if you're using hand-to-hand combat, I'd recommend just picking one or two good moves and use them over again.  (If you're playing on easy level, you need only one -- otherwise, you'll need to alternate to make sure your moves stay effective.)  My favorites were ALT-7 and CTRL-7.
  • 5 of 6: Once you land your first hit on an opponent, you can pretty much just keep hitting him.  You might have to make some minor changes in your direction (since both you and your opponent will move slightly with each attack), but you're safest if you don't give your opponent a chance to land a hit on you.
  • 6 of 6: If you seem to be slightly off in your facing, you might want to take a step back or use a back flip to give yourself the time to realign yourself.
