Red Faction Cover

Red Faction is the first game in the Red Faction series developed by Volition Inc. and published by THQ Inc.

Introduction

Red Faction takes place on Mars in the late 21st century, more specifically around the year 2078. Earth’s minerals are being depleted and humans need more of them to survive. The vast Ultor Corporation runs the Noachite mining operation on Mars. The living conditions are deplorable, human rights for the miners are few, and a disease called the Plague is running rampant throughout the colony, predominantly within the confines of the mine complex, with no known antidote available. You play the role of Parker, a downtrodden miner taken in by the promises and advantages Ultor has to offer in the mines of Mars. After a routine day in the mine with the typical aggression toward miners and cramped living conditions and poor nutrition, he witnesses the spark that starts a rebellion. When a security guard abuses a miner at the end of his shift he heartlessly kills him. Parker takes up arms, with the help of Hendrix, a rebellious Ultor technician who guides Parker through the complex. Hendrix tries to get Parker to join up with a group of miners who are about to steal a supply ship and escape the complex. Parker arrives too late. The ship takes off but is destroyed by missiles.

Parker traverses through the Ultor complex, eliminating any resistance Ultor throws at him, and even kidnapping a high-ranking Ultor administrator, Gryphon, for Eos, leader of the Red Faction. Parker learns from Gryphon about Dr. Capek, who created the Plague. Capek has been experimenting with nanotechnology, and the Plague is a side-effect. Hendrix directs Parker to Capek's secret underground laboratory, where he and Eos meet up and take down Capek. Before Capek dies, he tells Eos how to cure "The Plague". After sending a distress call to the Earth Defense Force, Parker stows away on a shuttle to an Ultor space station in Martian orbit to deactivate a laser defense system.

After destroying the space station, Parker lands back on Mars via an escape pod, Ultor brings out its reserve of mercenaries to help them in their fight against the miners. Hendrix tells Parker that the mercenaries have orders to destroy the mining complex, covering up any proof of Ultor's wrongdoing. After fighting his way through the mercenary base, Parker confronts Masako, the mercenary leader. After killing Masako, Parker sees that Eos is tied up and sitting on the floor next to the bomb, which has been set to explode. After deactivating it, the Earth Defense Force arrives just in time to save Parker and Eos from an Aesir. Eos tells Parker that an antidote for the Plague has been made and it is being given to any sick miners. She also tells him she is leaving Mars, and that he should enjoy his new status as a hero.

Story

As all Volition Inc. games do, Red Faction contains a hugely immersive storyline that will contribute highly to the game play. You are a miner named Parker, toiling in the mines on Mars for a deceiving company known as Ultor. The conditions are worsening day by day, and there is talk of a rebellion. All the miners are suffering from a strange, deadly disease called the Plague that is suddenly sweeping through their ranks. The miners' anger and resentment are ready to boil over, and the player provides the spark that starts a rebellion against Ultor. The player's goal is to stay alive long enough to bring down Ultor and solve the mystery of the Plague. This journey takes him from gritty subterranean mines to Ultor's pristine science and nanotech labs to the surface of Mars and even onto satellites orbiting high above the planet.

Geo-Mod

Red Faction is the first and only series to feature Geomod technology, which allows the player to dynamically alter the 3D environment in real-time; i.e.: a rocket blowing a hole in a wall.

-The Nano Rifle is one of the 19 weapons that will be available in [[Red Faction: Guerrilla]] when it is released.
-==Description==
+Red Faction is the first game in the Red Faction series developed by [[Volition Inc.]] and published by [[THQ Inc.]]
-It is one of the most highly rated weapons in the game, and quite rightly so, as very little can stand in it's way. The Nanorifle shoots matter-eating swarms of [[nanites|nanobots]] that slowly disintegrate anything they come into contact with, be they structural supports or human beings.
----
-The [[nanites]] created by the [[Nano Forge]] will deconstruct solid matter, like a wall, in seconds. The [[nanotechnology|technology]] is highly advanced and the [[EDF]] wants it, so keep it safe.
-Recommendation: Create a new entranceway into a building or take out a vehicle. Also, hit any enemy with a well placed shot to obliterate them. If you shoot right in front of you at a wall it should make a hole big enough to let you through. You may have to crouch to get through. Destroying things from a distance can be more useful than many realise, as you can remove one wall of a building and bring the rest crashing down on an EDF team approaching you. You can destroy a shield that a [[EDF]] trooper is using by shooting the shield with the Nanorifle, but the trooper will survive. When facing a gunship, try to take out one of the wings, this will put the flyer off center and cause it to plummet to the ground, where it will either explode or disintigrate.

-These upgrades can be purchased from Sam at any of the safehouses. They increase the rifles effectivity greatly.
-Increased Ammo: Allows Alec to carry 6 clips of ammo for the Nanorifle
+After destroying the space station, [[Parker]] lands back on [[Mars]] via an escape pod, [[Ultor]] brings out its reserve of [[Merc|mercenaries]] to help them in their fight against the miners. [[Hendrix]] tells [[Parker]] that the [[Merc|mercenaries]] have orders to destroy the mining complex, covering up any proof of [[Ultor]]'s wrongdoing.

-When using this weapon against [[EDF]] troops they will react with terror, occasionally pausing in shock to watch one of their comrades dissolve into dust. Mason can use this moment of distraction to remove the rest of the team.
+==Geo-Mod==
+Red Faction is the first and only series to feature [[Geomod]] technology, which allows the player to dynamically alter the 3D environment in real-time; i.e.: a rocket blowing a hole in a wall.
-Do NOT use the Nanorifle to destroy a vehicle you intend to blow up with the MOAB! Since the Nanorifle causes targets to "dissolve" rather than explode, a MOAB-equipped vehicle will NOT detonate if destroyed using the Nanorifle. Use standard explosives and weapons instead.
