/----------\ | INVASION | \----------/ Episode 4 Level 1 : Contamination ------------------------- WARNING: Spoilers below... read only after you have completed the level, or you need major help! Strategy tips: -------------- - Save early, save often! - Main saving points: - Before entering the air ducts/service passageways. - Before entering the Cargo Bay. - Before entering Main Engineering. - Hibernation Room: - Get the blue armor and stock up on ammo. - Take care of all enemies already present. - Go to any corner where your back is covered and you can watch the main door and the beam-in site. - Be patient and kill all incoming enemies before leaving the Hibernation Room. - Corridors: - Run out and back in to lure the enemies, and take cover. - Computer Room: - Flip all switches and get the map. - Mess Hall/Kitchens: - Chow down and enjoy the view. - Cargo Bay: - Stay on the elevator and pick off all enemies. - Make sure you take the chaingun, you're gonna need it. - For the upcoming onslaught, a) Use the shield to stop them. or b) Use the elevator to escape. - Cargo Bay Teleporters: - IMPORTANT: Leave the door open so you can make a quick getaway! - Beam onto the site, and beam right back out to lure the enemies off the alien ship. - After all incoming enemies are dead, explore the alien ship. - If you want to go for the soul sphere, good luck... and it IS possible. - Armoury: - After getting rid of the guardians, stock up. - Air Ducts: - Be very patient and conservative. Suicide charges will be just that... suicide. - Stay in a good spot (such as junction of corridors) and kill all enemies coming around the corner, until they stop. - The corridors are only wide enough for one person at a time... this can be both an advantage (pick 'em off one at a time) and a disadvantage (no place to dodge). - Keep your ears open for growls and teleport noises. - Do the famous step forward, step back maneuver to draw enemies from their hiding spots. - Remember, maps display concealed rooms. - Main Engineering: - Stay in the ante-chamber (with the rad suit) until all cacodemons are dead. - Run around the perimeter corridor and kill all enemies. - Pick a good viewport and kill the barons... but watch for sergeants and imps. - Kill all remaining enemies... you might have to go into the main chamber for this. - Look carefully at the central energy towers... see the switch? - On to the Upper Decks: - Final enemy... should be pretty easy after what you've faced. Hope that these little strategy tips help. And the Ultraviolence skill level IS possible!
