Plan your next Global Rescue session
Our guide helps you master Global Rescue’s core systems, from base planning to mission creation. By focusing on each pillar—layout, fleet, staff, coordination, and editing—you’ll build an efficient operation that handles any emergency scenario the game throws at you.
01 / THE GUIDE
Optimizing Base Flow
Compare two base layouts: one with a single central garage versus a split design with separate fire and police bays. Observe vehicle queue times and staff movement to decide which arrangement reduces response delays.
- Leave clear paths between parking and wash bays to reduce vehicle bottlenecks.
- Balance office space with vehicle facilities to keep staff morale high while maintaining readiness.
02 / THE GUIDE
Balancing Fleet Diversity
Create a fleet consisting solely of fire trucks, then add a mix of police and EMS vehicles. Track how response success rates change across fire, medical, and law‑enforcement incidents.
- Regularly schedule washes to keep vehicles in top condition.
- Keep a mix of vehicle types to respond effectively to varied emergencies.
03 / THE GUIDE
Staff Efficiency Tuning
Experiment with varying break‑room sizes while keeping staff numbers constant. Note any shifts in crew readiness and mission completion speed to gauge the impact of comfort facilities.
- Invest in training early to boost response speed.
- Monitor staff placement to avoid overcrowding in limited office space.
04 / THE GUIDE
Dynamic Mission Placement
Run identical incidents but alter vehicle parking positions—near the entrance versus deeper inside the scene. Measure how quickly crews reach their tasks and how traffic reacts.
- Position a vehicle near the incident entrance to speed up crew deployment.
- Use traffic checks to manage road blockades and keep response routes clear.
05 / THE GUIDE
Custom Mission Complexity
Design a simple traffic‑check mission, then layer in a fire and a witness‑questioning objective. Test each version to see how added goals affect overall mission length and player control.
- Start with a simple incident before adding multiple objectives.
- Test your mission in a sandbox mode to ensure traffic and AI behave as expected.
