How to get started with CrossFire PH

CrossFire PH is a very popular online free to play military game in the Philippines with the same concept as Counter Strike, but with better graphic design and with more kinds of ammunition. To get started with CrossFire PH you will need an excellent video card and an epic internet connection. Experience in playing these kinds of game isn’t that necessary since there will be a tutorial the first time you log in.


To get started with CrossFire PH you might need to download the game and run the patcher.  There is also a need to register for an account. You will find everything you might need, including download links and account registrations, in this site: http://cf.ph.gameclub.com/main/cfmain.asp


After downloading, registering, and patching, you will now be able to play CrossFire PH. To get started with CrossFire PH, you will be prompted to choose a character. There are 3 characters to choose from in the beginning and can later be changed by buying characters from the shop using GP(Game Points),which is obtained from playing, or EC(E Coins), which is bought from stores. The 3 characters are: SWAT, SAS and OMOH. Their difference from each other is their in-game look and each has a history of its own. There are also special characters which are bought using ECs. They also have differences like their looks and they each have special skills.


After choosing a character, you will then get started with the tutorial. It is important not to skip the tutorial because it will give you a very good starting XP (experience). After the tutorial you will now be able to know the basics of playing CrossFire PH. And like every other RPG or Online Games, you will need XP points to Rank Up which can be gained by playing any game modes and of course GP, which is like the game cash that will be needed to buy different weapons and armors which can also be gained by playing different game modes.


The problem when you get started with CrossFire PH is that they won’t give you a little background of the game modes that can be found in the game. There are game modes that have different goals according to the team they belong to. There are two teams which is the Black List(a.k.a Terrorist) and the Global Risk(a.k.a Counter) So, here are the game modes with the respective goals of each team:

	Blacklist	Global Risk
Destruction Mode	Eliminate all Global Risks or Destroy selected areas by planting a bomb.	Eliminate all Blacklists or Defuse the bomb planted by the opponent.
Team Death match	Players in each team must work together to kill the enemies and   reach the designated number of kills or have a greater number of kills within a      specified number of time.
Wipe Out	This mode starts with a melee weapon (knife) and within the map are different weapons to pick-up. The mission is to eliminate all the enemies.
Ghost Mode	Becomes invisible and should plant the bomb in selected places or eliminate the opponents using a melee            weapon.	Guard the selected places, with complete ammunition, so that the opponent can’t plant the bomb.
Zombie Mode	At the start of the game, 2 soldiers turn into Zombies and must be able to infect every soldier and turn them into zombies.

And that’s about it. There can also be different types of game like, for example the Knife ONLY Destruction Mode or the Snipers ONLY Team Death match, it will depend on the creator of the room.

Now that you know how to get started with CrossFire PH, I encourage you to play the game and have fun all the way. It is fun and can be stress relieving.
