Ze_ro Posted November 23, 2001 Share Posted November 23, 2001 Is it just me, or is this possibly the most frustrating, annoying hard game ever? I mean, I don't mind a challenge, but this game is simply too much. Please, for god's sake, someone find some cheat codes so I'll actually have a chance of getting past level 8! I don't think I've even seen a quarter of the game. I actually have a book with descriptions of each of the levels, but the game is so hard that none of that matters. --Zero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemmi Posted November 23, 2001 Share Posted November 23, 2001 here try this, it took abit to load for me for some reason give it time to load Cheat codes and a Strategy guide is near the bottom http://vgstrategies.miningco.com/gi/dynami...annonFodder.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Helper Posted November 23, 2001 Share Posted November 23, 2001 Here is a direct link to that guide http://www.gamewinners.com/Multi/CannonFodderStr.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ze_ro Posted November 24, 2001 Author Share Posted November 24, 2001 Sadly, I already knew most of this before Oh well, I guess I just suck at this game. I doubt I'll ever have the patience to beat it (Though I've heard the ending sucks anyways, so I'm probably not missing anything) --Zero (10 more...)

Tyrant Posted November 25, 2001 Share Posted November 25, 2001 I clocked it!! Ok I did it on my 3DO, but the levels should be the same. It was hard, but not really all that hard imvho. Would have been a lot easier with a mouse tho, try getting the pc (or ST) version to play. The only level I really *needed* a strategy guide for was the last phase of the last mission, where you have to devide your squad into four teams, complete the mission with no wasted weapons or dead men, and do the whole thing inside 99 seconds. Oh, and there's no map either. Trust me, the game is absolutely classic, and well worth trying to clock, just wait till you get a helecopter with homing rockets, its soooo fun. Your evil swearword filter blocked out my calling homing rockets h o m o rockets, which is clearly a joke and not an insult to homosexuals (some of my best friends are gay btw before anyone starts accusing me of things).

liquid_sky Posted November 25, 2001 Share Posted November 25, 2001 i love cannon fodder its frusterating at first but the more you play the more you become hopelessly addicted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Helper Posted November 26, 2001 Share Posted November 26, 2001 I have heard that Cannon Fodder has some bugs in it that can make certain levels unplayable. If there are any level codes you can find to skip to the next level you might want to try them in case your stoppage on level 8 is because of one of these bugs.

woodyi76 Posted December 12, 2001 Share Posted December 12, 2001 I can't get past level 3. The ice level. I can't find out how to destroy 2 of the buildings. There are isn't anything to hit next to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ze_ro Posted December 12, 2001 Author Share Posted December 12, 2001 You have to throw grenades at them to blow them up... instead of shooting the ammo piles next to the other buildings, go and pick them up! --Zero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaztee Posted December 13, 2001 Share Posted December 13, 2001 I got stuck on level 5. Some little swine kept shooting me from off the screen. Good to know I'm not the only one stuck on this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrant Posted December 13, 2001 Share Posted December 13, 2001 Foolish mortals, how little you truely know of what lies in wait for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunstar Posted December 14, 2001 Share Posted December 14, 2001 Hehehe...yeah, you tell 'em. I'm stuck between phases on mission 8. On rare occasions i've managed to get past the narrow pass across to the island with the bazooka guy next to a couple shacks, and guys just keep coming...but even if I make to the next phase where you have to jump into a gun turret and take out the bunkers, I always get killed in the turret before I can shoot anything. That's where I'm stuck. I have the 3dO's strategy guide for it, and it appears to accurately describe the levels so the two versions seem to be the same (I don't own any games on the Jag/3DO that I already have on the other). It hasn't helped much, knowing what to do is only half the battle...then there's the other half... "WAR...Never been sooo much fun...WAR...Never been so much fun!"

Same here... Either I'd get killed on the way to the turret, or I'd haul ass into it, then blow myself up trying to kill the hordes of enemies about to kick my ass out of the turret. I think I've gotten past it once or twice, and the next level wasn't any easier. I think it was a snow level... Naturally, even once you beat that phase from hell, it won't let you save until you beat five more --Zero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted December 14, 2001 Share Posted December 14, 2001 The problem with the Jaguar version are the controls. Cannon Fodder really needs a mouse to play correctly. On the PC I got to around level 30 or so. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian M Posted December 14, 2001 Share Posted December 14, 2001 This game had the potential to be fun, but it suffers from bad design and a totally unbalanced difficulty curve. It starts out too easy and suddenly becomes nearly impossible! Bad game design 101. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
