ENDING 1 - Credits and Thanks 2 - Version History =================================================================== A - INTRODUCTION =================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------- A.1 - Background of Psychic Force ------------------------------------------------------------------- Psychic Force originated from Taito. This is one game remembered by it's unique gameplay and originality. Psychic Force later appeared on the Playstation. (Acclaim handled the US port.) That was in 1996. They've created a sequel - Psychic Force 2012. In this sequel, Taito added tons of new moves, and appearances of 7 new characters to the total 13. Being the first game to be programmed on Taito's latest arcade board, Wolf, the graphics proved to be one of the best among others. This game isn't often seen outside Japan, but is pretty hot in Japan itself. ------------------------------------------------------------------- A.2 - Message from Author ------------------------------------------------------------------- Sega's Dreamcast Controller is a little badly designed for fighting games... at least Saturn's was very much better. If you are going to use the controller, avoid using the L & R triggers, they break easily. Kanji translations are quoted in < >. Also note that most storylines listed in this FAQ are somesort related to the Psychic Force (1). So the storylines listed are assumptions from what I played in the arcade. I welcome any help on this FAQ, esp translations of dialogues. Though I can understand a bit of Japanese (being a Chinese and having studied a few japanese courses), but I'm not perfect. So help in this area is appreciated. ^_^ Joseph ------------------------------------------------------------------- A.3 - Story of Psychic Force ------------------------------------------------------------------- Story ------ 2010, The immense power of Keith and Burn's final showdown, caused the untimely destruction of the Old Noa underground Fortress, where many Psychiccers lost their lives. Noa has been destroyed officially. With the demise of Noa, the world's Psychiccers are left without a leader. 2012, Keith Evans ressurrects Neo Noa and follows the path towards a peaceful world for united Psychiccers. Richard Wong creates his own Army of Psychiccers to destroy Neo Noa and humans alike. There is also a "Third Force" of Psychiccers who seek thier friends and family, and hunt down members of Neo Noa and Army to find the truth. Introduction to groups ----------------------- Noa -- Also known as Neo Noa (Shinsei Noa), led by Keith Army -- The millitary (Psychiccer Army), led by Wong The Third Force -- Psychiccers who belong to neither of the groups =================================================================== B - CONTROLS AND GAME BASICS =================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------- B.1 - Overview ------------------------------------------------------------------- This game plays like no other fighting game. The commands for each character works regardless of whichever side he or she is facing. To make it simple: Imagine a character facing the right. If the command require a semi-circular motion of the joystick, it can be either from left to right, or right to left, or top to bottom, etc... Though this is a 3D game, but it plays in a 2D way. This means that you won't be able to go into the background or foreground areas, just like plain 2D fighting. The fighting area is limited to the space within the large cube. Joystick Control will be represented by the symbols below: up upper left o o o upper right \ | / left o-- o --o right / | \ lower left o o o lower right down Some movements not using the symbols above: 360 Degrees - A complete circular motion of the joystick 180 Degrees - Semi-circular motion of the joystick Other 3 buttons are: Guard (G) Light Attack (L) Strong Attack (S) Like any other fighting game, commands are entered through a swift movement of the joystick followed by buttons. i.e. o-- --o + L On the side of the screen are two bars (one for each player). Each bar is seperated into 2 gauges - Life gauge and Psycho gauge. To execute most moves, you will deplete your Psy gauge. As your Life decreases, the space for Psy increases. Hence, your Psy can go beyond 100% (max 200%) Above there's a Power indicator. This indicator shows a number that represents the strength of the character (default is 100, max 200). More basics explained below. There are 4 walls of the cube (battle arena) that the characters can contact with. Note that finishing off the opponent with a special move during the last round will cause the opponent to be smashed out of the arena (most of the time). It only applies to left and right sides. ------------------------------------------------------------------- B.2 - Normal Attacks ------------------------------------------------------------------- L will execute small projectiles from far. These projectiles will not deplete your Psy gauge and are weak. S will fire a bigger projectile, and depletes your Psy gauge by 30%. (i.e. the first move of every character.) When both characters are close together, L and S will execute punches and kicks. L can be pressed multiple times for a combo. S will deliver a powerful blow. A combination of both may be used (i.e. L, L, L, S). More below: Combination Moves. *Notes: As noted above, S will consume 30% Psy. So when the Psy gauge is depleted, the character will fire small projectiles just like pressing L. Another thing to note is the two commands that are available for the first move of every character. As S command will deliver a strong physical attack up close, the other will be used to fire a projectile. (i.e. --o --o + S) ------------------------------------------------------------------- B.3 - Guarding ------------------------------------------------------------------- Here are a few ways of guarding. Please note that normal guarding will not block everything. Normal Guard ------------- Press G This guard will only block basic moves, mostly front and small projectile attacks. Barrier Guard -------------- 360 degree + G This guard blocks every move that comes from any direction. The Psy gauge will deplete at a constant rate when you use it. However the Psy gauge will not be depleted only when you're blocking an attack. If the opponent is right next to you, he or she will be knocked back. Retreat Barrier ---------------- o-- --o + G This barrier interrupts attacks from the opponent. However, it will not break combos, but just prevents the opponent from attacking you after being knocked away. Psy: 50% *Notes: Retreat Barrier will function only if you do hold G button after being knocked away. It will turn into a Barrier Guard after a while. ------------------------------------------------------------------- B.4 - Movement ------------------------------------------------------------------- Normal Dash ------------ Any direction + L + S You can move around quickly around the screen with this. Quick Dash ----------- L + S This version of dashing is faster, but use only when you're trying to get near your opponent. This dash will bounce off any small projectiles shot at you. Slide Dash ----------- o-- --o + L + S This move allows you to side-step into the opponent's defense. ------------------------------------------------------------------- B.5 - Charging ------------------------------------------------------------------- Psycho Charge -------------- G + L + S If you're not using the Auto option (Beginner), you must press and hold all buttons to refill your Psy gauge. Hyper Charge ------------- 360 Degree + G + L + S This move will increase your Psy gauge while depleting your Life gauge. This will increase your attack power, hence the purpose of the Power Indicator that appears at the top. ------------------------------------------------------------------- B.6 - Other ------------------------------------------------------------------- Psy-Impluse ------------ Press L or S repeatedly After being knocked into the wall a few times, you can keep pressing either L or S to repel your opponent. This will deal damage, a form of counter-attacking. Psy: 25% Barrier Break -------------- --o + S This move has to be done when both characters are close. This move will break the opponent's barrier and cause damage. However, this move can be guarded by a Normal Guard. Psy: 50% Catch ------ Close, G + L Character will perform a catch. i.e., throwing, etc. ------------------------------------------------------------------- B.7 - Modes, Main Menu and In-game Options ------------------------------------------------------------------- Modes (Arcade) --------------- Arcade Mode - The usual game.

Handicaps (Dreamcast only) - VS Human only, the number of stars indicates the offense. ------------------------------------------------------------------- B.8 - Combination Moves ------------------------------------------------------------------- Combination moves are determined by type: light, middle and heavy weight. Combos listed below can only be done close.

Walls ------ It is important to note that walls have their uses when chaining combos, because they will stun the opponent. Use walls whenever you have the chance. Note that knocking into the wall doesn't deal damage, unlike Psychic Force. (With exception of Gudeath's catch.) Wall combos' damage will be reduced by 30%. Barriers --------- Barriers are useful, not just for blocking. If you find that you have been cornered by the opponent or just being chased by a persistant opponent, use the barrier to knock him off. Though it doesn't deal damage, but it stuns the opponent, giving you a opportunity to dash away from him. Sudden Death ------------- When a two player round ends up with a 'Time Over', Sudden Death will occur. Sudden Death is a 10 second match, with both characters at 200% Psy with minimal life. The winner will win the round. However, if no one wins the round, both will be offered a 'Win' (Draw Game). If both players get their 'Wins' this way (i.e. Draw Games all the way), the computer will offer a Game Over. :P Note that the arena will be shrunk to the smallest size available in the options during Sudden Death. Post-battle Speeches (Japan Arcade and Dreamcast only) ------------------------------------------------------- Characters with special relationships will say something different after defeat or victory. This happens in the cases below. I can't translate what they're talking about though. -_- Might : Patty Patty : Might Wendy : Emilio Burn Silver Emilio Golden Emilio Genshin : Setsuna Carlo : Regina Regina : Carlo Gates : Keith Emilio : Wendy Keith Burn Setsuna : Gudeath Gudeath : Setsuna Keith : Burn Wong : Keith Burn : Keith Silver Emilio : Golden Emilio Golden Emilio : Wendy Burn Glitches --------- In the arcade, when 2 Emilio's perform Arch Angel at each other, there's a clear line between the light rays showing no cross- transparency. This glitch is removed in the Dreamcast version. On the Dreamcast, while having a battle between 2 Keith's, pausing the game will have Keith saying "Kou-re!". It's an odd bug and it doesn't affect the game... however it may be intentional. ^_^ Same applies to Wong who would say "Toki-yo!". ------------------------------------------------------------------- D.4 - Q & A ------------------------------------------------------------------- Q. How do I get the hidden characters? A. See D.3 regarding on how to get the characters. Q. Why doesn't the Dreamcast version support VGA Output? A. Someone wrote this in a Japanese BBS... "The Arcade version of Psychic Force 2012 runs at an odd resolution, possibly not supported by VGA. The Dreamcast version is a perfect port of it." This might be one reason why Taito decided not put have this feature... resolution incompatibilty. Taito has always been making games for consoles straight from what they have in the arcade. Q. Is there a VMS mini-game for Psychic Force 2012? A. Unfortunately not. ------------------------------------------------------------------- D.5 - PC Version PF2012 ------------------------------------------------------------------- ---Software Info--- Date Released : 12th March 1999 Format : Windows Media : CD-ROM Price : ¥8,800 Developer : Taito Publisher : Unbalance (http://www.unbalance.co.jp) ---Requirements--- Minimum | Recommended O/S : Windows 95/98 (DirectX 6 required) CPU : Pentium MMX 166MHz | PentiumII 233MHz K6 200MHz | Celeron 300A | K6-2 233MHz Memory : 32 MB | 64 MB Video RAM : 8 MB Display : 640 x 480 resolution in High Color (16-bit) CD-ROM : 4x Sound : DirectSound compatible soundcard (DirectX 6.1) Hard Disk : 120 MB Input : Keyboard DirectInput compatible Joystick* Video : Direct3D or Glide compatible (DirectX 6.1) 3Dfx Voodoo2 | nVidia Riva TNT 3Dfx Banshee | 3Dfx Voodoo2 | 3Dfx Banshee | Matrox MGA-G200 * 2 axis 4 buttons Gamepad (ASCII FighterStickW and Microsoft SideWinder Gamepad recommended) PC version of Psychic Force 2012 is based on the Japan arcade version. =================================================================== E - ENDING =================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------- E.1 - Credits and Thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------- Taito -- For creating such a unique game. ^_^ Haohmaru Crono -- For confirming the methods on getting hidden characters.
