MEL EE AT TACKS
When you’re close to an enemy, press
to perform a melee attack. Depending on
your position, you may end up jabbing an enemy in the neck, backstabbing, or slitting
someone’s throat. Melee attacks typically earn you more Overkill points than a regular
kill, but fewer than kills achieved with cooperative tactics.
Melee attacks often kill an enemy in a single blow, but closing in on an enemy puts you
at risk of being killed with a single melee blow, too. It’s also possible for your enemy to
create a Confrontation moment by attacking you and pushing your weapon away from
him. If this happens, rapidly tap
A
to fight him off and complete your melee attack;
otherwise, you may fall backwards and be vulnerable to a melee blow. If the enemy is
stronger than you, make sure your friend is nearby to shoot him during the struggle.
OVERKILL
Overkill helps your Army of Two take down enemies hard. When activated, Overkill makes
you temporarily invincible, increases the damage you inflict on enemies, and gives you
unlimited ammo and grenades for 13 seconds.
Killing enemies fills your Overkill Meter. Traditional kills give you 10 Overkill points, while
headshots, melee attacks such as backstabs, surprise hits, and killing multiple enemies
at once give you additional points.
Be as cooperative and skillful as you can to earn Overkill points. The more inventive and
spectacular your kills are, the more Overkill points you receive, which lets you trigger
Overkill more often.
When your Overkill Meter is full, press
y
to activate Overkill for you and your partner.
This mode is shared between you and your squad mate, so when your partner activates
Overkill, you become a killing machine along with him.
When you and your partner both trigger Overkill, the overlapping time gives you Double
Overkill. This increases your time spent in Overkill, time dilates, and you have the
opportunity to generate even more damage while your enemies are left vulnerable. Take
advantage of Double Overkill for massive money bonuses.
Sometimes all enemies die before your Overkill expires. If you no longer need Overkill,
you can pause it to save the remainder of your meter. Refill the meter to initiate
Overkill again.
CO-OP ACTIONS
As a rule of thumb, the more you rely on your partner and the more skillful your kills are,
the more Overkill you’ll generate. The following actions help you fully utilize your partner
for maximum Overkill accumulation.
SURPRISE/DECOY
Whenever you kill an enemy who’s focusing on your partner, you generate a surprise kill
and your teammate gets a decoy bonus.
FLANK/BAIT
Whenever you’re able to flank an enemy who’s focusing on your partner, you generate a
flank kill and your teammate gets a bait bonus.
TAG TEAM
Whenever you and your partner focus on the same target by shooting at him
simultaneously, you get a tag team bonus.
CO-OP COMBO
Surprise/Decoy, Flank/Bait, and Tag Team are all considered co-op actions. Whenever
you and your partner perform more than one of these in rapid succession, you receive
extra points for achieving co-op combos!
