First off understand this will take you through the basics to get you started.
Click
GatewayClick
Files / PRogramsFind
Firewall ProtectClick
RunNow find
Password ProtectClick
RunNow you have started up your
basic and weak defenses but it is better than nothing.
Now for the next step. Upgrade your defenses.
Click
ConnectType in
113.223.203.149 and click the left
ConnectClick
Public FTPClick
Download next to each file there.
Make sure you kill the old file before starting the new file due to your low system resources but only do 1 at a time just incase.
At the time of this writting this will bring you up to .32 defenses and this tutorial will be updated periodically as better "public" software is found.
Now time to go to your first Public server.
Select one of the 5
True Light servers and click
Public FTPHere you want to
Download the following files
Log DeleteLog UndeleteHideUnhideAdware Spam DaemonIn that order. The other files are optional at this point.
Now once you have
Log Delete you are going to want to start
Cracking
Admin on all of the public servers.
By the time you have accomplished all this you should be ready to start doing 2 things.
1> Running Missions
2> Uploading and Installing Adware Spam Daemon
Running MissionsNow you are asking yourself where you get these missions from right?
Bulletin BoardsThat's right all
REAL NPC servers at this time have
Bulletin BoardsSo click on the
Bulletin Board of each server while you wait on cracking it.
Click
Accept AllNow on the left hand side you will see where it says
Mission Data.
I recommend opening that up in a new tab.
You will see something like this, lets hope I get the coding right /grin
We need an experienced information
facilitator to disinfect one of our servers.
The vir file is # 45189, Adware Spam
Daemon | Denezhka V 0.32, hidden
with V 0.76
You may need to use your own
Complete Delete 161.187.140.200 Disinfect anti-virus for the task, as we don't have
Mark Connect Bounce virus the necesary software. Once inside the 355.56
system, start the anti-virus process by
remote or local. Complete the AV
process from the Running Software. It
takes some time to disinfect the file...
depends on the file size. Then just relay
the completion data so we can transfer
the reward.
Now for Delete missions the
Complete is really only useful if your mission gets bugged and does not auto complete. But for other missions you will have to use the
Complete button.
You will notice all the information is there that you need to complete the mission. The IP of the server with the file and the file that is to be deleted. The Reward for completing the mission is based on the time + resources to complete.
So now that you have the information you will need to go to the server in question. Hopefully you have admin on it. If not then you will need to crack the admin on it.
Click on the
Remote Server's Files / Programs.
Find the file, I recommend CTRL-F and input the file #.
Click
Delete and go on to the next mission.
Understand starting out you will only be able to do a couple of missions at a time.
Now from here there are 2 different styles of progression. There is the Ebolla way and their is the Soviet way.
Soviet's Progression style.
Focus on Bandwidth so that you can upload
Virii faster to your target.
You will dump about 3/4th's of your HPD's on Bandwidth.
Split the other 4th between CPU, RAM, HDD, and Research.
Ebolla's Progression style.
Focus on CPU so that you can run more missions to gain HPD faster.
You will dump about 1/2 of your HPD on your CPU
Split the other 1/2 between RAM, HDD, BW, and Research.
HDD is the
lowest priority as you only need to increase it on an as needed basis.
Now for the different mission types.
Delete
Go into a NPC server and delete a file. Go back when you see
Task Completed and collect your reward.
Disinfect
Go into a NPC server and disinfect the Virus in question using your own Anti-Virus program. Understand while this perhaps the fastest feasible mission type it is resource intensive. Go back when you see
Task Completed, click
Task Completed, copy the
File#, go into
Mission Data, and Search for the
File#. Click
Completed to get your reward.
Kill
This one is really an Anti-Hacker mission although I don't think it comes up as one. The object here is to go
Kill the
Delete Process on a Hackers system thereby saving the NPC server's file. Don't bother with it as it is a time sink
In My Opinion.
Anti-Hacker
This is a very under paid mission type. You have to
Crack Admin on the Hacker's system. The problem is that most of these missions that I have seen are against Top 10 players. And almost the whole Top 10 is currently unhackable.
Uploading and Installing ViriiI am going to go over how to upload and install Adware Spam Daemon however understand the directions work for ALL Virii.
Find your target server.
Click on your
Files / ProgramsScroll down to the Virus in question.
Click
UploadNow go back when your upload is complete. Obviously the more
BW you have the faster this process completes.
Click on the
Remote Server's
Running Files and click
Task CompletedClick on the
Remote Server's
Files / ProgramsScroll down to your Virus
Click
InstallGo do something else while waiting for the activation to complete.
Go back and again click
Task CompletedThat is about it for the basics.
Now for some advice to help you keep a low profile.
Do not install Spyware style Virii on the Secret servers.
Do not mess with any SGP software on the Secret servers.
If you see SGP Virii in large quantities on a server it is probably in your best interest to avoid installing Virii on said server.
Last but not least. Laugh as Ebolla destroys all Icarus servers.
I hope this helps you out a LOT with your questions on how to do things within the game and gets you a good start on playing to enjoy the game.
