You can also use them as projectiles to knock more hunters into the water hold enemies in your mouth by holding "RT" down, then press "LB" to Tailwhip them at another target. If you’re low on health, keep pressing "RT" to eat them and regain some health. You want to Knife through the water by holding "LT" while you’re swimming along the surface, then leap out of the water with "B" and hit "RT" to lunge through the air at a hunter and grab them from their boat. Any time they start targeting you, hit "RB" to dodge away, and they won't be able to touch you.
This will make it harder for them to hit you repeatedly, and gives you a better angle of approach if they don't see you coming. The best tactic for turning the hunters into your next meal starts with swimming in large circles, ducking in and out of range of the hunter’s boats. Taking down the first few waves of hunters shouldn't really be a problem, but their potency and numbers quickly start to stack up. You just need to kill enough humans to raise your threat level, which eventually causes hunters to begin searching for you. These can be innocent bystanders on land, unsuspecting swimmers, or leisurely boaters, it doesn't really matter. Like most watery horror films, it starts with some good old-fashioned human killing.
In the end, we end up doing the same four things we’ve already done: eating humans like there’s no tomorrow, fighting marine life, swimming at top speed, and destroying boats.But how do we raise our Infamy in Maneater? In addition to the new story and the mutations that give us more powers, increasing the attack possibilities with them, there is not much else in this DLC. If before it would have been quite good to have this function, now with the appearance of the helicopters it would have served us too much. Something that is unfortunately still needed is a system to fix our attack on a single enemy. Perhaps the most useful addition in terms of our arsenal is that we now have a laser, quite useful for attacking enemies from a distance, which was something that our shark was missing at times in his previous odyssey. Now 40 is the maximum level we can reach, remembering that in the base game it’s 30.Īmong the enemies, we have helicopters, land vehicles and even fish with atomic capabilities, each one generally representing a more complicated challenge than the opponents seen in the original adventure suppose, which is more than welcome. The good news is that in our favor we have evolutions just out of the oven, including an additional organ slot that is activated at level 35. The story unfolds in a new area called Plover Island, introducing us to new marine life and rookie enemies with whom we will have to fight. When we thought that, after the credits screen, the difficulties had ended for our protagonist – a shark with all kinds of extraordinary abilities -, it turns out that he now faces a new mission: the search for the truth – hence the name of the DLC- behind a conspiracy in charge of a New World Order. This is a short review, our usual the good, mixed and the bad was difficult because of the nature of this game.
Once that’s done, then yes, you can jump right into Truth Quest. It’s important to know, that to access this DLC you need -in addition to buying it- to have finished the main adventure.
