Garma's Zaku
When playing in story mode, mission 2, shoot down at
least five of the Dopps that try to shoot down White Base. To
make this easier, jump up on to White Base and shoot down the
Dopps as they fly toward you. Once you have accomplished this,
and the level progresses, instead of flying by in a red Dopp,
Garma will be in his Zaku. Defeat him and successfully complete
the rest of the mission to unlock this mobile suit in the gallery.
If you have all the Zeon suits unlocked in the tactics battle
mode already, then just finish a level to unlock this suit in
the tactics battle mode. If not, just progress through tactics
battle mode as usual.
Garma's Zaku II
To get Garma's Zaku II, you must destroy a certain
number of Dopps in stage two, "Winds of War". When destroying
Dopps, you will hear Amuro counting how many Dopps he has destroyed.
When he gets to six, he will ask "Who's gonna be seven?"
After the seventh Dopp is done, you are able to fight Garma in
his Zaku II. You must destroy it before you fight Char. This is
difficult, but if you get your timing correct you will be able
to defeat him. Also, this must be done in Story mode, not Stage
Select. Once your game has been auto-saved after stage two, return
to the title screen. It is best to complete the game first to
unlock Tactics mode. You must be at least a Major or higher in
the Tactics Battle Mode Zeon.
Gundam Alex
In tactics battle mode, use every mobile suit to complete
every mission. You will then be able to fight the Blue Destiny.
After obtaining Blue Destiny, use it to complete every tactics
battle mode mission. You will then get to fight against the Alex.
Use the gun cannon against Alex, since it has the best armor.
Use its Beam Cannon to defeat Alex. After defeating Alex you will
be able to use it in the tactics battle mode missions.
Tactics battle mode
Successfully complete the game under any difficulty
setting to unlock the tactics battle mode option at the main menu.
"S" rank
Reach the base as fast as possible. Start from long
distance, shooting the first three targets in the front. While
avoiding enemy fire, use your boosters to get to the next three
targets of the left side of the base. Once they are destroyed,
use your boosters to jump the first hanger to your right. The
Guntanks will not harm you. Watch out for GM, and use your claws,
axe, etc. to hack away at the hanger until it explodes. This will
take some time. Then, boost to the next hanger and repeat the
process, still watching out for GM. Then, do the same to the last
hanger. Once all hangers are gone, kill the target to the far
right of the base. At this point, kill as many of the little tanks
that do nothing. Killing them will ensure an "S" rank.
Destroying about six of them should be sufficient. Then, kill
the target to the far left.
To get an S+ rank with Zaku II, get to the left side of the base
as fast as you can. This way, the GMs cannot get to you. Take
out the four cannons on the left side (ignore the Guntank, it
will not hurt you). Then, use the auxiliary attack (Cracker) on
the hangers. Two Crackers should be enough to destroy a hanger.
Destroy the last four cannons. This should take about two minutes
to complete. Note: This can be done with anyone who uses the Cracker
auxiliary attack.
Level 3: Easy completion
Before you start this mission, make sure you have the
Beam Cannon equipped. On level 3, quickly defeat the green Zakus
and leave the red one alone for the moment. Make sure you get
them all before continuing. After you defeat all the green Zakus,
jump on one of the tallest buildings you can find that is fairly
close to the white base. Two bombers will approach very close
to the buildings -- close enough so that you can jump from the
building to the bomber. After jumping on the bomber, switch to
your Beam Cannon and aim at the back stabilizer (the large fin
on the back of the bomber) and hold [Square] for about two
seconds. This will release a more powerful blast from the weapon.
Firing this blast two times at the back fin will destroy the plane
and it will start to fall. Repeat this for the second bomber.
Note: This requires practice.
Level 3: Destroying bombers
Get on the White Base's shelter, then jump on the bombers
using boost and go to the tail fins. Pull out your sword and slice
at it two times. The bomber's engines should turn red and it will
begin to fall. jump off and repeat this on all the bombers.
Level 3 tactics battle (Earth): Easy
Level 7: Easy completion
On this level (with the DOMs) chose the Beam Rifle.
When you start, go behind the white base and kill the DOM there.
An intermission sequence will begin. After that, you will have
to go back to white base and jump on it. Switch to the Beam Rifle
then target (not the Zoku II) and shoot them down. They will not
shoot you as much on white base. Note: If one gets too close to
white base, hack them with the Beam Saber.
Exam system
In tactics battle mode with the Blue Destiny GM to
activate the Exam system, let your energy bar drop into the red.
You can tell that the Exam system is activated when its camera
(eye) turns from green to red. His will increase your defense
and attack on enemy mobile suits.
