Family death
Before i die in this life
Now make it so
War can come to any country so-called civility lets bring down entire cities
Deception in every corrupt nation tears the walls down
Bring destruction to the ones that keep us blind
Ignorance is not bliss until the truth is told
A greater understanding in time
Let events naturally unfold
Never buckle or bow
power of now
unite
Unknown factor
All shall not bide their time
A mushroom
preparation
From the highest level
Corrupted
To lose the east
For now new chernobyl
Time to fortify
And the only result I could find is this wiki
I was wondering if anyone had any complaints about the game on Xbox. I've been looking forward to playing it on Xbox.
I just made a new discovery. The Taebaek in the Allied Mash in Kusong offers a challenge called Taxi where you have to transport various npcs to various places. What's interesting about this challenge is that the car has a Speedometer! So my point is... knowing the max speed of the Taebaek, can we compare it to the other vehicles in the game, so we can obtain the ACTUAL speeds of all vehicles instead of the generic slow/average/fast/etc... statement? It would require some tests in-game and calculations but i think it's doable and a proper speed value for the vehicles pages is better imo. What do you guys think about this?
The Iron Mountain, (AKA the Type 99 MBT) is an outrageous armored vehicle, it's low profile means you can snipe enemy tanks from afar without taking too much damage yourself, but it also means it can get stuck easily on walls normal tanks could get over. The gun is a bit underpowered, and the MG is misplaced in the main gun itself.
I remember renting out a game from Family Video (RIP) for my PS2 many years ago, probably over a decade now actually, and you could steal any vehicle and even sell it to some guys for money, which you could use to order more vehicles. I also remember there being a ZSU 57, or maybe the chinese version, the WZ305, in the game, which was one of my favorite tanks to drive due to it's twin 57mm cannons firing quite fast. I think the guys you sold the vehicles too were the russian mafia, and all you had to do was drive it into their garage. I loved stealing a bus full of people and selling it to them, that was quite hilarious. My question is, was it Mercenaries 1, 2, or a different game?
So i was trying to take down the six of spades. Theres a small team of AN soldiers there that are not armed. Next to them there is a supply crate with ammo inside, except that its not the actuall ammo. They are grenades. If you pick em up you switch between your current grenades. By default you have 6-6. With this you will have 12 lethal or non lethal total. But after you take down the six of spades they disappear forever. I guess this is a glitch because until my next playthrough i wont be able to get any flash grenades again. It might get fixed after you star the second playthrough but im not sure. Does anyone know if i can somehow undo the 12 grenade glitch ?
Can someone who owns the ps2 versions of mercs 1&2 upload a picture of the save data icons in the ps2's memory card browser?
I was looking through the spare parts wiki post and saw that only crypto and the mercs wiki were mentioned in the trivia... i added 2 more things into the trivia bit
Guys, I tried editing a page recently but the wiki won't let me. Is someone here having the same issue? I have already talked with the mod but he doesn't know the reason. Any help would be appreciated.
I loved these games when I was a kid, picked them up again recently and I've been having a blast reliving old memories. I was disappointed to see that there's no Mercenaries community on Reddit so I decided to make one. If you're looking for another place to talk about Mercenaries check out the new subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/MercenariesGames/
Hello everyone! I have recently made a new discovery and i wanted to share it with all of you here.
Back in 2007 there was a mobile port for Mercenaries 2 on old phones (YES, those things that didn't break no matter what you did to them) and no, i'm not drunk, here is the proof: https://www.ign.com/articles/2007/11/28/mercenaries-2-to-mobile
I tried out the game and, i should say this was a pretty interesting find and i think i'm gonna write a new page on this wiki for this port later.
Btw guys if you want to play this game you can download it from here: https://phoneky.com/games/?id=j4j46284
Use this app to play it on android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.playsoftware.j2meloader&hl=en&gl=US
If you have any question on how to set up the emulator feel free to ask!
Edit: I added the page! You can find it here: https://mercenaries.fandom.com/wiki/Mercenaries_2_Mobile
Anyways i hope you guys like it but if you think it's inappropiate then you are free to remove it!
Hello!
Hope everyone is in good health!
Well, I'm very upset with Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction version for XBOX ONE. Each day I play I find a new bug. And today the issue is kinda blocking me to advance further, so I decided to ask for help here.
I wanted to know whether anyone has any solution to any of the bugs listed below, being the first two the most problematic to me and those that got me truly upset:
After almost 100 hours of game my save file no longer records my position in the map, regardless I am close to an HQ. I always spawn at Kusong MASH, even if I am at the South Province!
My minimap has completely crashed! The sprites are now gray squares for everything (ally or foe helis, SAMs, HQs, mission objectives, etc, except for challeges that are still a "$"). And the worst thing is that this is irreversible. It doesn't matter if I restart the game, load another save file or start a new game. The core of the game has crashed somehow and now my minimap is useless.
Helis spontaneously blows in the air, specially in the city of Dandong. For some reason, the chinese helis above Dandong randomly explodes and fall above you on fire. And this happens very often. If you stay in Dandong for a while many helis will fall over your head. Nevertheless, I have faced this bug in other cities as well, even in south province, but these are very seldom.
4x MD-500 spawns at the exact same spot in Downtown Pyongyang, making them crash at each other. This is very funny, actually, and they do not explode. But it is still very bizarre.
This is rare, but happens: If you want to fly a YAH-56 Gunship (the Apache imitation) the easiest way is to kill the pilot and wait for it to crash without blowing up. However, there is a small chance that after you enter the heli it will slowly and endlessly accelerate on its own (as if you were continuously pressing A very softly). The problem is that you start to endlessly gain altitude and cannot ditch out. As if you were tied up to a giant helium balloon, hahaha...
Very often destroying vehicles doesn't count on your statistics, even if you earn the money for a NK vehicle. This does not happen when killing people or driving. Why?
Frozen NPCs: At the max distance of renderization you can see NPCs simply standing as a stopped silhuete, as if they were frozen. They are even flying sometimes. However, if you approach them, or use the binoculars, they start to move. What's more weird is that those that were flying often fall and die! I mean, what the ****???
Suicidal civilians: I remember playing this game on PS2 and there were suicidal civilians as well, but on a minor scale. On this version, the citizens are completely crazy! They cross the street in front of your car everytime, and you end up killing them and paying the fine. Also, very often they throw their own vehicles in the water, whether you are driving somewhat close to them.
Various minor bugs which I would take a whole day to describe them up.
Can someone help me with these? Specially the top two of the list are very annoying bugs and are almost making me to give up this game and ask for a cashback, whether it is possible, lol.
Best,

Honestly, the Diplomat is the best for the democratic side of the fight for VZ, but it suffers from its height. The Iron Mountain Heavy Tank is the opposite of the Diplomat, being low to the ground. However, we can't forget the VZ Heavy tank. Based off the AMX-30 (Upgraded with reactive armor and a 30mm cannon instead of a MG), the VZ Heavy tank doesn't pack a punch against the Diplomat or the Iron Mountain. The Cavelara, despite it being outdated, is good in a fight, if you're fighting the Chinese, watch out for the Fuel-Air Launchers and use your mobility to out run the traversing rate of heavier vehicles. If you're fighting the Allies, engage from long distance and call in Combat Air Patrol against the Ambassador, unless you somehow angle the tank and score a few hits on the attack helicopter, it will rip you up. If you go for an IFV or an APC, use your enhanced mobility further, and get on top of tanks and other vehicles. It won't credit you with the kill (Than again, do you run over a vehicle and get a kill in the game) my only complaint about said vehicles is the fact it takes forever to destroy a fortified building, such as a rocket building. Use the cannon on armored targets and try to flank around to the back of the vehicle and lay into the engine with guns ablazing, keep in mind the AI are programmed to keep the front of heavy vehicles facing you, which requires some creative thinking. If you come across two heavy tanks (Pray you don't) treat them like Halo Hunters, use the other as cover while you plant C4 or attach a radio beacon, than run away, take cover and hope you disable them both.
I checked the Fandom page for cheats and there is a tip that they had only been tested on PS2.
With the backwards compatibility release for Xbox Game Pass I have them and a test and they work on Xbox One as well
To be honest, the beginner Heli's are a little under powered, and the pilot can get shot through the glass (except the Anaconda and Condor). To me the best heli is the Anaconda. Any opinions or thoughts?
I'm going to make a discord channel centred around the games. I doubt I'll get more members than I can count on my hands but if there's someone, anyone, I'll happily speak to them about this game; my favourite one ever.
Anyone interested in joining, here's the link:
Can't say I'm ambitious but the ability to speak to anyone, I'll be very grateful for. If I learn there already is a more established server, I'll probably take this one down. Till then, seeya friends.
