M10 Stage 10: Blood On The Beach
It's the 4th of July and the citizens of Amity have gathered at Amity
Town Beach Beach, The Pond, and Amity Public Docks to celebrate. A Police
helicopter patrols the nearby waters from above, while two Coast Guard
Cutters have taken up a defensive position in the bay and at the entrance
to The Pond. Even Mayor Vaughn, is attending in his personal yacht, in
order to help with the festivities. So, it's time to join the celebration
with a show of crimson red blood in the water, caused by your sharp white
teeth, as you dominate the blue waters of Amity.
This level will take place in two main areas, The Pond, and Amity Public
Docks. All but one hidden item in this area is located around Amity Public
Docks outside of The Pond so, as you attempt your objectives, it's best to
gather the items outside The Pond, first.
The first task is to attack and kill 5 people before they can make it
to the beach. By now, this should not be any problem, choose your
favorite attacks and kill 5 of the swimmers located to the Southwest. Just
be aware, as soon as you are spotted, the rest will head toward the beach
and you must kill 5 before they all escape. So, don't play with your
victims.
Your next task will be to find a way into the pond, but that's not really
that difficult. Instead, it would be wise to eliminate the two Coast Guard
Cutters that are in the area. They will constantly fire on you if you're
in their range. Fortunately, a truck as crashed into the bay, and it was
carrying those blue explosive barrels that always come in handy when you
need to fight the Coast Guard. Follow your sonar to the green "point of
interest" mark, and you will find the barrels lying on the bottom of the
bay. It does not matter which ship you attack first, but beware of the
electrified netting underneath the bridge. Until you take out the Coast
Guard, don't break the netting or enter the pond. As you fight the ships,
there may also be Seaseekers in the area so keep your guard up.
With the two Coast Guard ships now history, it would be a good time to
begin to gather the hidden items, before you open the path to the pond.
You need to return to the beach area where you began. It should be toward
the West, but if you're not sure, just head to the bridge and swim to the
Northern End. Now, turn with the beach to your left side and follow the
beach until you see it end at a rock wall formation. Turn left at edge of
the sand where it meets the rock, and you should see License Plate 41/45
as you swim toward the surface. Now, reverse direction and follow the beach
to the Southeast (beach will be on your right) toward the bridge. When you
arrive at the crashed truck, turn to the left so that the North indicator
on your sonar is at the 8 o'clock position. Swim in this direction and
you should find License Plate 42/45 on the ocean bottom. The Shore should
be to the Southwest from here, so approach the shore and turn to the left
so that the shoreline is on your right again. Follow the shore and you
will approach the Amity Public Docks. You will eventually see a concrete
foundation sticking into the water along the shorline. Also, you will see
Tin Can 1/4 near this foundation. Keep moving along the shore until you
are at the far corner of the foundation and stop. Turn directly to the
East, and slowly swim forward under the large boat (The Amity Ferry), and
you should see Tin Can 2/4 ahead and maybe slightly to the right. After
you've gathered Tin Can 2, turn back toward the Amity Ferry to the West,
and resume your course along the shoreline. Near the waters edge, a little
farther along, you will find License Plate 43/45. Once you have the Plate,
turn to the Southeast, putting North at 8 o'clock once more,and retrieve
Tin Can 3/4 in the distance ahead. Continue in the same direction from
Tin Can 3 to intercept the shore, and follow the shore to the North, North-
east direction. Keep following the shore and you will come to the last Tin
Can 4/4, both in this level, and of the whole game. From Tin Can 4, rotate
your position so that North is at about 10 o'clock. This puts you in a
Northeast direction. Ahead you will find a Body Bag (7,000) points
floating to the left of the shore. This is the final Rare Item in the game.
Continue along the shore, and you will find License Plate 44/45 hidden be-
tween some rocks as you near the area boarder markers. Follow the boarder,
without accidentally exiting the area, and you will wind up at the beach
area where you began.
Now, return to the crashed truck and use the barrels to open up a path
through the underneath of the bridge. Once you short-circuit an area
under the bridge, you do not have to destroy all the electrified sections,
but I would recommed at least taking out two adjacent areas. Enter the
pond and you will be told to "Destroy 5 boats" within 50 seconds. There
will be four smaller boats, and one Police boat. Use your sonar to lead
you to each of the boats (red dots on sonar display) and destroy them all.
Next, you have to find the Mayor's Yacht, and push it into one of the
barges. However, let's get your last item, and a big bonus first. Return
to the bridge and while stayin on the pond side, swim to the Southern end.
Turn to the east and swim until you get to the beach, you will see a very
large rock. Look to the along the base of the shore and you will see a
small group of rocks and hidden among them is License Plate 45/45. Once
you pick up the last License Plate you will have unlocked the "Level
Select" option from the main menu, and will also receive a bonus of
100,500 points.
Coming up next,"Jaws Goes to the Mayor"...swim to the Public Docks area,
indicated by the red main objective dot on your sonar and a new cut scene
will begin. It seems there has been a disturbance at the pond, and the
Mayor's escorts think they should leave.
But wait, what's that ... a fin?
Time to play "bumper-boat" with the Mayor's yacht and the barges. The
guards on the Mayor's boat, as well as on the surrounding boats will
constantly shoot at you so it is important to keep an eye on your health
and retreat to eat if necessary. You will need to keep attacking the
Mayor's boat, trying if possible, to push it into one of the barges.
Attacking the boat will damage it, and eventually you will still get the
same results, but pushing him into the barges causes a lot more damage and
will end the fight faster. The charged Tail Whip, seems to be the most
helpful attack in trying to push the Mayor's boat. If possible when you
are attacking the boat, try to keep him between you and the barges. No
matter what attack you use, anytime he is "bumped" into the barge you
are that much closer to the end of this level.
As you successfully cause enough damage, or shove the Mayor into a barge,
the resulting crash ignites the fireworks on the barge. This in turn, sets
off the rest of the barges. The Mayor's boat goes up in flames, as fire-
works blaze in the evening sky, and thousands of Amity's citizens flee in
a massive wave of chaos and panic. The Shark Hunter and Brody have one
more plan, to stop your carnage. To be continued.. in Story Mission 11
"The Final Chase."
