And I'm very proud of it ^_^ Just remember to check back once in a while on GameFAQs to get the latest version... ii. Introduction **************** I assume everyone reading this guide has a good idea of the game basics for "Guilty Gear X". Besides, there are many good FAQs out there who do a very good job at explaining the game itself. Also, I expect everyone who uses this faq knows how to or has already beaten Survival Mode 'normally'.. I will add a section for Survial Mode strategies, though, so contributors are always welcome! Anyway, this is the first (but not the last!) guide I'm posting for Gamefaqs. I bought this game when it first came out in Europe (2001), and I noticed a lot of the 'costumes' you can select for your characters are VERY cool -_- About 6 months ago (!), I FINALLY managed to beat the stuffing out of 'normal' Survival Mode, but I'm sure I'm not done yet. More about this in the "Wanted" section... Spoilures WILL be given about the game's secrets, so don't tell me I didn't warn you! The sequence in which I 'present' the characters is based on the character selection 'grid', going from left to right and starting at the bottom left. The first line of each character will always read "Unique costumes: ... + 2". This means: [this many costumes, including the "standard" outfit, see "Legend for selecting Costumes" section] + [the 2 special costumes] (see the "Selecting Special costumes" section) iii. Legend for selecting costumes *************************************** Punch = Square Slash = Triangle Heavy Slash = Circle Kick = Cross Hold Punch = Hold Square Hold Slash = Hold Triangle Hold Heavy Slash = Hold Circle Hold Kick = Hold Cross Punch + Slash = Square + Triangle Punch + Kick = Square + Cross Heavy Slash + Kick = Circle + Cross Start Button = ... (no comment) Hold Start Button = ... (no comment) Note (1): Play Survival Mode. The first time you ENCOUNTER an opponent with a new costume, you'll be able to select it for your own character. It does NOT matter if you win or lose this fight. Don't forget to SAVE now, ok? Note (2): The costume linked to the "Punch" button is the same for everyone (no matter how many costumes you've unlocked). It's their "standard" oufit, as shown in the picture of your character (for instance: Ky Kiske with a white + blue "coat". Note (3): You'll encounter "Gold" opponents (the so-called "Dare-Devils") every 10 levels, starting at 20, the last one at 99. You'll only be able to select these costumes once you beat Survival Mode for the first time. More info in the 'Obtaining Special Costumes" section. Note (4): The Dare-Devils are Gold Testament, Gold Dizzy, Gold Chipp Zanuff, Gold Potemkin, Gold Baiken, Gold Faust, Gold Venom, Gold Millia, Gold Zato-1One. If you defeat Gold Testament and Gold Dizzy in this mode, you'll unlock the 'normal' versions as playable characters. Note (5): Supposedly you can "continue" Survival Mode by holding L1 + R1 once you've defeated Gold Zaton-1One. I haven't confirmed this yet, because I had to take a LONG break after finally typing this guide... I've got fragile nerves, you know... ; _ ; Note (6): About "holding" buttons: this means holding [button] when selecting your character and KEEP it pressed until your first fight starts with your character. It may not be required to hold (a) button(s) this long, but that's the way it worked for me. I usually checked all the costumes by going into Training Mode, always using Ky Kiske as my opponent. Note (7): I need to check this again, but at the point I'm at I always get the same costume no matter which of the above combinations I use for 2 buttons. That's why I'll refer to them in this guide as "any 2 buttons". Just remember that you may get different combinations than I quote here with certain buttons/ button combinations, but the more costumes you unlock, the more combinations will "match" my guide. Note (8): In some cases you actually need to move your character or attack with them to see a particular 'element' of their new outfit (for instance: Dizzy's wings when you make her do her taunt). I'll add more detailed information about these "elements" in a future version of this FAQ. iv. Selecting Special costumes ************************************ Gold costumes: beat Survival Mode (reach level 100 by BEATING Gold Zato1One at Level 99). You do NOT get any special powers (unlike the Dare-Devils, the cheaters!). You look pretty cool, though ^_^ I used Venom to earn these. Shadow costumes: beat Survival Mode IN LESS THAN 10 MINUTES (using the "timer" the game uses, of course). Same story here: no special stuff, but you look IMPOSSIBLY cool... ^__^ I used Dizzy to earn these (9.57 mnts, Sweet Lord...) (got this from a Guilty Gear X FAQ/ guide, but I can't remember which one ; _ ;) Each character should have a "Guilty Gear" costume, a "pseudo-3D" costume (it has a different 'look' than the other costumes). I thought it was 'linked' to the same button for everyone, but this doesn't seem to be the case... Can anyone give me more info on this? I'll put "Guilty Gear costume?" between brakkets where I'm pretty sure of this for a character. This one's more a "character" than a costume, but hey... Unlock "Guilty Gear Mode" (GG Mode) by completing Arcade Mode on the default settings WITHOUT using Continues (that's how I did it). You supposedly also get this by beating Survival Mode for the first time at Level 100. Enable Guilty Gear Mode and select Ky as your character. He'll be "Gear Ky" and move and attack differently. He still has ALL the same costumes as if you selected 'normal' Ky, though. v. Strategies for Survival Mode *********************************** vi.

Wanted *************** (this first one is also in the "Selecting Special costumes" section) (got this from a Guilty Gear X FAQ/ guide, but I can't remember which one ; _ ;) Each character should have a "Guilty Gear" costume, a "pseudo-3D" costume (it has a different 'look' than the other costumes). I thought it was 'linked' to the same button for everyone, but this doesn't seem to be the case... Can anyone give me more info on this? I'll put "Guilty Gear costume?" between brakkets where I'm pretty sure of this for a character. Who knows who mentioned the "pseudo-3D" costumes (see above) in a FAQ/guide? That way I can give that person proper Credit! More costumes, or corrections/additions for the ones I've already got! Spelling + grammar mistakes: please let me know about them! I'll do my best to correct them for the next update! I haven't played past Level 100 yet in Survival Mode. Anyone know if there are any costumes you can only get on the "higher" levels? Survival Mode strategies! Link(s) to PICTURES of the costumes that I can put in here? If need be, I could video-tape the ones I've got, and take screenies with my dad's PC which has a TV-"card" installed. No idea yet how I'd post them on the 'Web yet, though... Some ASCI-art (or is that ASCII-art?), please! I totally stink at this stuff, and I know a lot of you people out there are really good at this... Any other help/ suggestions that can help make this guide better! EVERY contributor will of course get proper credit. xxiii. Contacting me *********************** e-mail addres: side066(at)gmail(dot)com subject MUST be: "Guilty Gear X Costume Guide" + (optional) a remark on a what the mail's specifically about ("question", "spelling", "Faust", etc.). Mails of which the subject does NOT begin with the "first part" I just mentioned will be IGNORED. I'll try to read (and respond to...) them ASAP, but I only have online-access at my parents' house about once every 2 to 3 weeks. So please be patient for a reply... xxiv.
