"Random Items": When I say, �random items� I mean any items that are

there may be 1,000 credits, but the next play through it may be reduced to
800. Or may be something completely different.


Writing Style (II.V)
--------------------

I wrote this guide trying to keep the surprise factor of Dead Space 2
intact. So I DO NOT tell you where every enemy is, I do this so the game
does not lose it's fun. However, whenever I think it is wise to restock
on ammo, health, Stasis, and so on I will tell you. I will also tell you
when something major is about to happen, but not what is about to happen.
So yes, I know it seems like I'm speeding through the walkthrough.
But that is only due to the fact that I don't tell you where the enemies
are.

Know Something I Don't? Questions? (II.VI)
------------------------------------------

If you found something that I did not list, or even know something that
I don't, please tell me. For example, if you know the price of the Elite
Engineering Suit, or the Line Gun, or even a Random Item I might have
missed. Please contact me to let me know at, [email protected]. Your
contribution is always welcome, and your name, gamertag, or GameFaqs
user name, will be listed in my credits. Or if you just have a question
you can also feel free to ask me and I will get back to you as soon as
I can.

Thanks,
SMFDoomas

Now

2/16/11: Alright, I'm going to get back to work on my walkthrough as
soon as I can. Most likely around Sunday will be the next major
update. Which I plan on having at least three chapters added.


2/18/11: *sigh* Well Dead Space 2 does not allow you to have DLC one
one Xbox, bring your HDD to another, and then play it on a different
one, due to it authorizing with a the code for the original 360.
Which means that I can't load my save until I return to my original
360 back home. I will try to delete the DLC, and try again, but the
outlook seems rather grim. Sorry guys, you will have to wait until
Tues to see my next major update.

~ Chapter 1: And The Paranoia Begins ~ (1.01)
---------------------------------------------





~ Chapter 2: Why Hate Trains You Ask? ~ (1.02)
----------------------------------------------




~ Chapter 3: I Wish I Had Boot Thrusters ~ (1.03)
-------------------------------------------------

	All right, with the Brute killed, and the train sequence finished, look around.

	Behind the train on the left side is the <Pulse Rifle Schematic>
(and some random ammo), hooray! Now turn to the right, and run straight
until you see a room with four CORE crates and a large toolbox. Behind
these crates, are...another Power Node, again hooray! Okay, now head back
in front of the train and head towards the only lit room for miles.
Inside are a couple open lockers, head up and the ramp and find a
Save Station. **SAVE NOW** 

	After the save, head through the door, you should see the shadow
of The Pack. Head up another ramp, and as you come out the door, head
towards the Titan Station Elementary, to find a random item. Now turn
around and head towards the unlocked elevator. Near the elevator is a
Save Station and a Store, near the store should be a random item.
**SAVE NOW**

	As you exit the elevator, turn to the left, and shoot the moving
statue a bit. *DING! Achievement/Trophy Unlocked!* Moving on...as you
head near the statue turn to the left, facing BOLD Stylings, and find
a Text Log. Continue on your path, near the vending machine should be
a random item. Now as you head towards the Unitologist Recruitment
center, do not go in immediately, but keep going straight, to find
another random item. In the Unitologist Recruitment Center to the
right is another Text Log, now begin hacking to open the elevator.

	As you exit the elevator, on the desk is a Text Log and a random 
item. Do not go straight into the vent, instead go into the room on the
right, wait for the necromorphs to appear, bust open that window to cause
a rapid decompression, and wait for the door to close. Head towards the
closed door, and head left into this room, for a random item. 

	In the room across from this one, is a another random item, now
head into the vent. Head straight once you get out of the vent, for some
item boxes. Turn around and head towards the two corpses, finding another
box on top of covered crates. Ignore the Trash Compactor door for now,
and head up the ramp. Once you come into the room, you'll see
a Bench, a Save Station, an active console, and some open lockers to your
left. **SAVE NOW, Upgrade if you like**
	
	Activate the console to stop the Trash Compactor, head back down
the ramp into the Compactor Room. Welcome the your first interaction with
Zero Gravity! Press down on the Left Stick to move around in Zero Gee, go
ahead and get a feel for it and grab the items. (Reminder: Hold LB to
activate the boosters, and press RB to orient Isaac to the ground. This
makes Isaac's feet face the floor, so you wont be upside down.)

	Head straight from the room you entered from, into the Tunnel 1
Fan Control room. This room, the room to the right of the Fan Tunnel.
Activate the fan, head back out and go to the room to the left of the
door you entered. You will find a Power Node, and some open lockers.
Now...fly into the wind tunnel, you can boost the whole way through,
just to make it go faster, and making it easier to dodge the giant things
of trash. As you get close to the garbage chute, look to the right to find
a platform, with the doorway that you need to go through. Head straight to
find some boxes, now head up the ramp, and right at the top to find a
random item.

	Now, in the room with the flickering light is a door activated by a
Power Node, feel free to open it. This room contains a number of random
items. Pick up the battery with Kinesis, and put it into the battery
plug next to the elevator door. Outside the elevator door to the left is
a Power Node, head through the door, and head straight to find a random
item and a Text Log. 
	
	Leave this room, and go into the next one to find a random item.
Leave this room as well, head to the right and enter yet another open
door. Go towards the baby room, but head right for a random item. Face
the right to see a dresser, for another random item, and head out the
door. Turn to the right, go to the busted vending machine for another
random item. Head back and out the door, and through the other. Head
towards the back, and to the right to find the elevator. Leave the
elevator, to find a Save Station, **SAVE NOW** 
	
	Now head to left, and turn left at the opening. Now head behind
the Marker statute, and turn left to find a <Schematic for Javelin Spears>.
Turn  around and head to the other table on the right side to find a
random item. Leave the statue item and head towards the open door, and
through the other at the end of the long hall. Once you enter this room,
head through the open door across the hall, to reach...Chapter 4!


~ Chapter 4: Women Who'll Stalk You ~ (1.04)
--------------------------------------------

All right, after that warm welcome, head through the door on the left,
turn right, grab a random item by the corpse, and head through that door.
After you get the Text Log underneath the chair head out, up the stairs,
and into the Gift Shop. **SAVE NOW, Upgrade if you like** 
(I suggest stocking up on supplies) 

	After you're done in the gift shop, head back into the room that
triggered the start of Chapter 4. Now go into the room on the right side,
in here there are 3 random items, and a door to another security booth,
go in there. After you collect this Audio Log head back out and all the
way up these stairs. 

	Head through the only unlocked door, and keep an eye out for random
items as you head near the stairway. Head into the unlocked elevator at
the back of the pillar, and through the open door. Once you do, you can
head to the right, to find a door that will lead you back into one of the
main rooms. If you don't and just head forwards, you will find your self
in the Indoctrination Room. 

!-Rapid Decompression Room-!
	
	Head towards the back to find two things of random items and towards
the red door for another. Now head into the unlocked red door.
(REDRUM! REDRUM!) Towards the glass window are two boxes, and near a chair
is a Text Log.

**Puzzle Solution!** 
Take off the second panel, near the first one that flew off when you first
entered the room. This will expose the empty fuse slot. Now near the chair
where you found the Text Log, is a panel that is still attached to the wall.
(Not for long) Take it off with Kinesis and take the spare fuse. Now take
said fuse, and put it into the empty fuse spot to unlock the door to the
Observation Room. 
**Puzzle Solution, Fin** 

	Now leave this room, and use Stasis on the now malfunctioning door,
and slip under it when you have the chance. To your right will be a random
item and a Supply Crate, as well as a random item on the table to the left.
Continue onwards to find a Save Station. **SAVE NOW** 

	In this room on the left shelf is a <Security Suit Schematic>,
a random item, and a Supply Crate on the middle shelf. Now into and out of
the vent! Now once you're finished with that little sequence, pick up that
Power Node on the desk in front of you. As well as a random item on a 
able in the back of the room. Through the door on the left side, is a door
that leads you back to the room that takes you to the library.
*RECCOMENED: Restocking* 

	Head through there back into the room that triggered Chapter 4, and go
back into the Gift Shop room. Start restocking on health, ammo, and 
Stasis. You can upgrade your weapons if you like. I would also suggest
having either a Pulse Rifle, or a Javelin Gun, as well as plenty of
ammo or each/both. Now head back through the room on the right side,
up the stair case, and into the room on the right. Turn left and enter
the door at the end of the hall. Turn left again, and through the door
at the end of the hall, to enter the Basilica. Now, instead of
immediately entering the elevator, head to the end of the walkway for
two Supply Crates, and two random items. Now you can enter the elevator. 

	Now head left, out the gated hallway thing, and to the unlocked
door...Or not. Well, might as well enjoy the scenery. Now for fighting
these enemies (Stalkers), I highly suggest using either of the following
the Secondary Fire on the Pulse Rifle, the Secondary Fire on the Javelin,
or the Seeker Rifle. If you see a Stalker charging you, hit it with Stasis
fast! Once you killed all of them, there should be about four, take
a breather. You will also know when it's over when Daina contacts you.
Head into one of the hallway like things and begin hacking to activate the
elevator.

	Once you take the elevator up, take a left to find a Power Node
underneath the corpse. Now turn around and follow the walkway to the
end to find two random items, and an open door. Head through this door
and to the left, into the Conduit Room. In this room is an Audio Log,
a Power Node, and a random item. Leave the Conduit Room, follow the
hallway to the end, to find a door the leads you back to the room with
the Gift Store. **I recommend restocking, upgrading, saving** If you
did go to the Gift Store, head back up the stairs, to the right,
and into the Funerary Wing.

	Follow the hallway until you reach the red door that leads the
Reunion Chapel. Head towards the suspended coffin, on both sides of
the coffin are a random item. Head behind the coffin area, to an active
elevator. Leave the elevator, AND RUN TO THE OTHER DOOR! Are you safe?
Good. Because there was nothing even there! Open the door to
find...a Save Station! **SAVE NOW** This room also triggers Chapter 5!


~ Chapter 5: Is It Sunday Already? ~ (1.05)
-------------------------------------------

	Head through the door, and go to the right, all the way down the hall is
a Supply Crate. Now go left, turn right at the bottom of the ramp, and
go through the door, into the second cryochamber room. You can head either
way, because both side have a Supply Crate on them. Now head through the door
into the third cryochamber room. Now go to right, and enter the room on the
left to find a Text Log. 

	Leave this room the same way you entered, and continue down the hall,
to find another Supply Crate. Go down the ramp and enter the fourth
cryochamber room, you can head either way you want again, being that
their are Supply Crates on both sides again. Once again, after collecting
the items, head into the fifth and final cryochamber room. Now...WHO'S
READY TO RUUMMMBLLE!? Once you have finished the fight...So many quotes,
so little time. Head through the door, and go forward to get a Text Log. 

	Now get on the elevator, but turn around first to find a Gold
Semiconductor between two groups of the mechanical arms. Now ride
the elevator down to see the Gravity Flux Generator (for lack of a
known name). Head behind it to find a Power Node and the hacking panel.
But don't hack it just yet, turn to the left a little ways to see the
<Ripper Schematic>. Ok, now you can begin to hack the controls
for the Gravity Flux Generator, which will release mechanical arms to
stop certain parts of the Generator. 

**Puzzle Solution!** 
In order to solve this puzzle, you have to pull down the mechanical arms
that have been exposed by the panels dropping down. The first set of
mechanical arms are easy to match up, just pull them down and get ready
for the next set. The second set requires you to be a bit faster, so I
would suggest running from the the first arm of the second set, to the
second arm. Now the third and final set will require you to be much
faster. So once you bring down the first arm, hit the Generator with
Stasis and run to the second arm and bring it down. Now gravity has
been disabled! 
**Puzzle Solution, Fin** 

	Once gravity has been disabled, a fan will be turned on to slow
the descent of the coffins coming from the top area. Hit the fan with
Stasis, fly past it, and continue to the very top. For safety reasons,
hit the door with stasis just as it is letting a coffin through. Once
again, fly through that part, and head towards the top middle of the
room to find the <Medium Med Pack Schematic>. 

	You can land anywhere you want, but it would be easier if you
land near the Artificial Gravity Control panel. Activate it to open
the door across from you. Through the door to the right is a store.
**I would suggest stocking up on your supplies here**. Continue on through
the door way and up the stairs. 

	Hey look a Bench!...Wait, what? Power outage? Now?! *sigh* Well,
wait for the power outage to be over and head behind the coffin to find
a random item. Go back to the middle of the room, and take left. Wait, the
door ways blocked?! Great, just great! Head towards the bench, and turn
around to see three coffin holders blocking your way to a vent and a
Save Station. Move those out of the way to be able to save and progress
through the story. Yay! **SAVE NOW, Upgrade if you like** 

	Head through the vent, and exit it once you reach the end. Have a
nice fall! Now turn around to find three random items, turn to the right
to find...more random items! Now leave this little corner, and go back
the way you were facing when you fell. You will find a door, go through
it, and head straight to find the <Line Racks Schematic>. 

	Now turn around and head through the only opening, head to the
right and on the shelf are two random items. Turn to the left again,
to find a Supply Crate and an open door. Open the box, and head through
the door. In this hallway there is nothing that special until you reach
the door, where there are two Supply Crates After collecting the items,
head through this door as well. Get out a strong weapon, one that you
are good with helps, and get ready. After that little fun part is over,
look at the base of the second to last Marker Pillar, on the left, to
find a Medium Med Pack. 

	Now head up stairs, either side works, there's nothing special on
the left or right side. Once you reach the point where the paths meet,
go through the door. Head behind this Marker statue, 
(Can you say obsessed?) to find an active elevator. Go ahead and ride
the elevator all the way to the top. Now, feel free to exit the elevator
any time. In this circular room are three random items, but in the office
are; a Power Node on the desk, the <Detonator Schematic> on a
shelf behind the desk, a Save Station also behind the desk, and a random
item in front of a shelf on the right side. **SAVE NOW**

	Leave the office and go right, open the door, and get man handled
by a couple of security guards. Cutscene and Sequence time! In case you
do not know what to do, and are actually still reading this...SHOOT THE
YELLOW PARTS NOW! Once he drops you, RUN! Great...the gunships back....
After a short little cutscene, you have to shoot a gas canister to get
rid of him. Once that's over, hooray! You made it to Chapter 6!

~ Chapter 6: Same Place, New People ~ (1.06)
-------------------------------------------------
 
	Ok, after flying through that window, (what fun) and through the
door, (even MORE fun). Turn around back into the room you flew in through,
to find a random item by the fallen lamp, and a Power Node on the desk in
the back on the left. Now, turn to your left to find a bathroom, and in the
shower area on the left is another random item. Now leave this room, and
head for the open room on the right. In this room are two random items;
one on the shelf to your right as soon as you enter. Also in the bathroom,
lying near the shower. Once you've taken the items in this room go ahead and
leave. 

	Straight ahead of you is an unlocked door that you'll want to
go through. Once you've entered this room, there is a washing machine section
to your left, feel free to break the glass to enter. In here is a random item
on the table to the left, and a Save Station to your right. **SAVE NOW**

	Now face the exit of the washing machine section, to see an unlocked
door, start walking towards it. Near the door though on a table to the right
is yet another random item, pick it up, and head through the door. On this
little overview area is a Supply Crate directly in front of you. There is
also the <Seeker Rifle Schematic> near the door to the right. Once
you've collected these goodies, head back into the room with the washing
machines. Now you can take the door on the right side, and continue on!

	Walk down the hall a ways until you see an open door to the left, go
ahead and enter the room. In here there is one random item, it can be
found by going through the doorway on the right, and it's just lying
on the table near the corpse on the couch! Haven't you always wanted
to take other people's stuff? Go ahead and leave this room, again
continuing down the hall, and entering the supply room on your left.

	There are two random items here, one on the shelf to your left
as soon as you enter. As well as one on the work bench to your right. With
those items collected, face the exit, and go into the room across from you.
There will be a random item on the chair on the right side. Check the
bathroom for any extra items. See any? No? Well leave the room then. GAH!
I hate alarm clocks! *begins to shot alarm clock* That will teach it...
Right, back to the walkthrough. Once you have left this room, turn right
and through the unlocked door. Once you enter this hallway, have a nice
little chat with Stross. Once that conversation is over, there is a
Supply Crate on the left side of the hall. But on the right side of the
hall, (opposite the Supply Crate), is an active elevator. Ride the elevator
down, and find a corpse of an EarthGov soldier, replaying a message from
Tiedemann and a Save Station in front of the corpse. **SAVE NOW**

	Continue on down the hall past the Save Station, to find an open
walk way, with another Marker Statue. Now behind this Marker Statue are
two random items, and a Supply Crate. The first random item is near the
far left window. On the right is a Supply Crate hugging the statue,
and the second random item is on a table also on the right side. Oh,
and I would suggest making sure all your weapons have full mags.
Now leave the statue area, and head towards the door at the far back
of the room. I would also suggest not running into the hallways but
staying in this open area so you have the advantage...Now, once that
ambush is taken care of, continue towards that door to find a random
item.

	Turn around, and head back up the staircase on the right, and
turn right again to enter another hallway. Begin to turn right, and
head closer to the Store. There should be the yell/growl of a Pregnant,
so be sure to take him out before you enter the store. **I would suggest
stocking up on items.** Once you've stocked up on supplies, turn towards
the left and head to the unlocked door. Mmmm...Look at all that blood!
My advice to you in this area, is if you hear a kind of deep guttural
sound, keep an eye out for little liver looking blobs. These beauties
are called Cysts, and they will blow you to hell. Now follow the blood
trail to see what looks like a waiting area for the Sprawl's tram.
Also, I would suggest walking on the moving sidewalk, considering
that that will be the area with less Cysts. Keep a close eye out for
them, especially the one on the support beam on the right. Once you are
clear of the walkway, you will see; a Save Station, a Bench, and a
Power Node enabled door. **SAVE NOW, Upgrade if you like.** It is
recommended that you open the Power Node door if you are low on
supplies.

	Once you have saved, upgraded, and/or opened the Power Node
door. Head through the unlocked door into the Hyperion Hall Apartments.
If you head to the back of this hallway, on the left is a random item.
If you collected the item, turn around, and head back towards the door,
but turn right when you can. Now before you try and kill the fire there
are some items that you can collect. Activate Zero Gravity mode and fly
up to the first balcony to find an Audio Log on the left side. How sad...
Well, fly up to the second balcony to find a Supply Crate floating on the
left side. Now run to the right side to see another Supply Crate floating
a little ways from the balcony. And take note of that little station
attached to the ceiling. Now head back down to the first floor.

**Puzzle Solution!**
	Alright, to stop the fire and allow yourself to continue, you have
to put it out. How you ask? Well keep reading! In this room you will see
two active Oxygen Stations which are fueling the fire. The first one is
simple to turn off, just pull out the battery that is powering the station.
Now, turn around to see the second Oxygen Station, walk behind the area
that is facing you. You should see a panel just underneath the Oxygen pumps.
Pull it off to expose the battery, and then pull out the battery. What?
The fire still burns you say? Well, do you remember that thing I told
you to take a note of? The one that's on the ceiling? That's another
Oxygen Station, and you have to disable it. Just do what you did to the
second station and, there you go! The fire is out!
**Puzzle Solution, Fin**

	Once the fire is out, you can feel free to leave the room with it having
no Oxygen. You can also turn an Oxygen Station back on if it makes you feel
better. Either way, head into the area that was once blocked by flames, and
head left to find an unlocked door. Once you head through the door, head
into the only room you can, to find a random item on a table to your left.
You will also see a blown battery, looks like we need a replacement...
Hmmm...now where can we go to get an extra battery? Oh! That's right,
the room you were just in! So head back into that room with the three
Oxygen stations, take an extra battery, and bring it back to the room
with the bad one. Take out the bad battery, if you haven't already, and
put the good one in. Hooray! Now we can use the elevator!...Wow, that
was a close one...Once you exit the elevator you will see; a Supply Room,
a Supply Cabinet, a Save Station, and a Power Node holder near a locked
door. **SAVE NOW**

	After you have saved, and collected everything you want, shoot the
fuse to allow yourself entry to the Supply Storage room. Well, there's
a lot of boxes, and some shrieking, guess it's time to run into some
more women. Make sure all your weapons are loaded, your Stasis bar is
full, and you are comfortable with your health level. Once the check
is complete, head down the ramp to find 3 sets of Detonator Mines
(1 each) I would suggest using the same strategy discussed in Section
1.04. Which is, �using either of the following the Secondary Fire on the
Pulse Rifle, the Secondary Fire on the Javelin, or the Seeker Rifle.
If you see a Stalker charging you, hit it with Stasis fast!� But since
this room is a lot more crowded always keep an eye out behind you.

**NOTE** If you leave the caged area and turn right as soon as you can,
you will see a Stasis Recharge Station. Remember its location.

	Walk forwards through the gap between the two sets of CORE crates,
and turn to your right, you should see a Supply Crate. Use Kinesis to pull
it towards you. Now heads towards the set of lockers on your left, walk
forwards a bit to see two more Supply Crates on top of some CORE crates.
This one is a bit tricky to see, but there is a Stasis Pack near the
Supply Crate that is closest to you. Now keep your finger on the aim
button, and walk between the set of CORE crates closest to you. This
should cause the Stalkers to engage you. Get ready for a fight! Just
remember the advice I gave you! Also, if you feel safer camping near
the ramp that brought you into this room, go ahead because they can't
get behind you from there. There should be maybe 4 to 5, possibly 6.
I wasn't exactly counting how many I killed, but the end of the
dramatic music should be a clue.

	There are still a few more things in this room that you can collect
though. If you head to the very back of this room, you will see a set of
lockers, some open, some not. Once you arrive at the lockers, and collect
the items, turn a bit more than 90 degrees to the right, to see more open
lockers. Head back towards the set of lockers I mentioned before this one.
On your way there you should see a locked door, head towards it, but turn
left to see a panel you can hack to open the smaller door. Now hack the
panel to open the door. Follow the hallway, and go all the way up the ramp
to your left...Man, that's A LOT of blood! Head through the open door at
the top of the ramp, and continue on through the open door way...Do you
gun shots? And swearing? Go towards the source of the gunshots and yelling.
But first make a stop at the Unitologist Recruitment Center, near the
elevator is a Supply Crate. Now you can continue towards the source of the
gunfire. Also, before you cross the bridge there is another Supply Crate at
the end of the walkway.

	...How friendly. Well, continue walking towards her for now, once you
do reach her, enjoy the cutscene! After you and Ellie have a nice little
chat, she decides to continue on her own. Well that sucks, so much for a
friend for the ride. Before you go into the elevator turn right and walk
down the hall, near what used to be BOLD Stylings is a Supply Crate,
hugging the right wall. If you turn around you will be staring the
<Pulse Rounds Schematic>, face to...well you get my point. Once these
little items have been collected, head back towards the elevator and hop
on.

	Outside of the elevator, directly to your left is a Store, and a Cyst
blocking a safe entry to the store. I suppose you know what to do with it.
If you don't need anything from the store, head forward to find a Save
Station, or if you accessed the Store turn around to find the Save Station.
Either way, **SAVE NOW**

	On the left side of the moving walkway, directly across from the Save
Station, is a random item. Now turn to your right, and head towards Fashion
Kid. Underneath the busted out door is a Power Node. Continue on towards
the Titan Station Elementary. Once you are in front of the door, turn left
to find a Supply Crate. Now before you enter the Titan Station Elementary,
look closely at the door. If you see it, and have taken care of it,
continue on. Otherwise, there is a Cyst on the upper right hand side of the
entry to the Elementary. Once the door is clear, go ahead and enter.

	Creepy, huh? Well head to the left side of the pillar, towards the fence,
to find a random item. Start walking down the hall that's on the right side
of the pillar. But stop for a moment and look through that window...Well...
moving along! Once you reach the end of the hall, go into the unlocked door
on the left. Once you've cleared the crib room, enter the classroom...Oh great.
Well, once even more are taken care of, approach the teachers desk.
Surprise! Ok, now that this room is completely empty head behind the
teacher's desk. Now through the unlocked door on the left wall. And
continue down another hallway to your right. After the first set of
colored lights on the right wall is another unlocked door, go on
through. On the desk is a Text Log, along with two Supply Cabinets
on the walls. Now near the unlocked door is a Save Station.
**SAVE NOW**

	Head through the door, turn right, and head all the way down the hall.
Looks like your paranoia is acting up again. After that little scene is over,
continue down the hall to find a random item. Now you can turn around and
enter the gymnasium. In order to get to the stage, head behind the seating
area. Once you have made it through the seating area, weave your way to the
stage. I never really was one who enjoyed doing plays. So work your way back
stage. After the surprise passes take a right to find a panel that controls
the power to the stage. Hack it to bring the gym back to normal. (At least
somewhat). Once you have cleared the gym of the mutant children, head
towards the newly exposed door. Near the door you will find a number of
unlocked lockers just waiting to be opened! Once you've collected
everything you want, head through the unlocked door.

	Make a left once you've gone through the door, and make a mad dash
to the end of the hall. Now, directly behind the pillar is an unlocked
door that leads to a room with a Text Log right in front of the door.
As well as the <Flamethrower Schematic> in the back room. Exit the
room, and take a right to find a random item near another gate. Turn
around, and enter room 305. Now, in the blue rocket ship is a Power
Node, take it, and head towards the elevator...Wow, she's getting
more and more evil by the second. Right, into the elevator. Once you
exit the elevator, there are two Supply Cabinets, and a Supply Crate
near the cabinets. Now to the right are two Supply Crates, and a
Save Station. **SAVE NOW**

	Continue on down the hall, past that GIANT hole in the wall.
What could have even caused that? Well, anyways, moving along. I
would suggest doing another self check before you go through the door.
Which means, check your health, check your Stasis, and check all your
mags in your weapons. Ready? Head through the door. After Ellie says,
�I can't hold it back!� Do a swift search of the room. You should see
a Brute. Here's a good tactic to bring him down, when he gets about 10
feet away from you hit him with Stasis, run behind him, and hit the
yellow spots on what looks like backwards knees. I would highly suggest
using either; the Line Gun, the Pulse Rifle, or the Plasma Cutter. As
these fire fast, and do a good amount of damage per area. 

**WARNING**
With no legs, the Brute will begin to fire what looks like puss balls
at you! These come at you at blinding speeds so keep a good distance!
You can either throw them back at him, or dodge them and shoot his
shoulders!
**WARNING**

	With this Brute defeated there are a lot of items to gather. So
head to the middle of the room, the area with the odd statues, and face
the Transport Hub sign. Now, turn to the left until you see a locked
door, head towards it. Near this door you will see two Supply Cabinets
and the <Vintage Elite Suit Schematic> behind some glass to your
right. 

NOTE: I believe this Schematic is only there after you have beaten the
game once before.

	At the door just two steps to the right of where the Schematic
can be found, is a Supply Crate. Now turn right again, and walk straight
past the door you have to go through, to find another Supply Crate.
This gets repetitive, I know. But turn right once more, and straight
again to find some open lockers and a Supply Crate behind them.
Turn to the left, and go straight towards the bar to find a Supply Crate
somewhat hidden behind a chair. Now you can head through the only
unlocked door there is. 

	In front of you are two more Supply Crates, and to the left of
those two crates, are ANOTHER two crates. Turn around, and head through
the unlocked door. See that blue beam blocking the hall way? Shoot the
part that is projecting the beams to destroy it. Head down the ramp now,
but beware of the Guardian! Once he is killed there is a Supply Crate
next to the tables, and a random item behind the tables in the right
corner. Pick up the Conductor the Guardian dropped, open the Supply
Cabinet behind you, and enter the elevator.

**INSERT DISC TWO**

	Congratulations! This elevator ride triggers Chapter 7!


~ Chapter 7: Of Solar Arrays and Men ~ (1.07)
---------------------------------------------	

	So, head forward and towards your left and right are a Bench and
a Store, respectively. Towards the down ramp at the back of this room is
a Save Station. Head towards it, kill 'em all yet? If you have...
**Restock, Upgrade, and Save Now** I would suggest stocking up on Line
Racks, Pulse Rounds, or Contact Energy, if you have the weapons to use
the ammo with. If you don't I would suggest purchasing one of them and
getting a feel for it. Now you can continue on down the ramp.
How beautiful...head through the door to the Solar Array Elevator, and
follow the walkway. Well so much for riding the elevator right away.
Head left and into the Elevator Maintenance Bay. Right as you exit the
second door, there will be a Supply Crate floating in front of you.
Grab it with Kinesis and smash it. Onto another puzzle! 

	But first, there are some items you can collect. Once you have
access to the elevator shaft, head towards the giant glass window to
find a random item. Now, go just below the elevator to find two random
items, and a <Ripper Blade Schematic>. Finally head to the very bottom
of the shaft, (through the area the elevator would usually be) to find
a Power Node. If you are going to use the puzzle solution, head back
up to the area where you first came into this room from.

**Puzzle Solution!**
Face towards the elevator shaft to see a chunk of debris blocking your
exit. Shoot the rocket thruster that is already attached to it, to move
it. Now head down towards the elevator and you will see two more chunks
of debris blocking your way. Luckily both have thrusters already
attached to them, shoot them, and continue downwards. Head underneath
the elevator to find two thrusters already attached to the bottom.
Shoot them, and head back to the area you first entered through.
**Puzzle Solution, Fin**

	Head back through the two doors, and into the elevator to begin
your ride to the Solar Array. As I mentioned before with getting certain
types of ammo/weapons, they would come in handy around now. Which are
either/or the Pulse Rifle, Line Gun, or Contact Beam. If you use the
Pulse Rifle, use the secondary. The Line Gun I am sure is rather self
explanatory. Or if you use the Contact Beam use the secondary to knock
off any and all enemies that are there. Also my suggestion is that you
work fast, and stick to the middle of the elevator.

	What fun that was. Well leave the elevator and to the right towards
the unlocked lockers. Remember keep your eyes and ears open! Near these
unlocked lockers is a Supply Crate, feel free to take what's inside.
Turn around and go towards the left side of the elevator to find another
set of unlocked lockers, and a Supply Crate a few steps before the
lockers. In one of these lockers you will find a <Force Gun Schematic>.
Now head through the door behind the elevator.

	After this...bizarre welcome head to the right, and right again,
to find a corpse on a bed to the right. And a Text Log on a table to
the left of the bed. Turn around to find a random item on the table.
Now leave this room and go straight. In front of you, next to the door,
is a Save Station. To the left of you is a Store, as well as a Supply
Cabinet, and a random item on the desk in the back, right side of the
room. **SAVE NOW, Restocking is recommended.**

	Head through the door...wait, what? No access? Well, do you
remember that corpse on the bed I pointed out? Turns out you need
it. So grab the corpse and bring it to the door. Howard Phillips?
Well anyways, head right on through the door. A ways in front of
you is a Supply Crate, take what's inside. Traps? She doesn't
want you here, does she? Head back out the door where you most
likely ditched the body. Sorry Howard, this time your bait.
Take his body and throw him through the traps. Cruel, I know,
but necessary none the less. Once you have cleared the second
trap in the main hall, turn left to find a Supply Cabinet.
Turn around to find another trap, you can trigger it using
Howard or an item laying by the opening of this hall. Head
towards the pipes closest to you to see a circuit breaker,
open it up to find a Power Node. Back into the main hall,
and through the door.

	**Rapid Decompression Room!**

	Alright with the room cleared, head back towards the
door you entered from to find a Supply Crate, open it up as well.
Turn around, and take note of the elevator here. Head into the room
that AI is flickering by, to find two unlocked lockers, a Stasis
Recharge Station, and a hacking panel. Do what you will with the
lockers, and Recharge Station. Once you have, begin hacking the
panel. Head towards the now activated elevator, and ride it up.
Right in front of you is a Supply Crate, and a Bench. I would
not use the Bench at all right now, just make a note of it.
Once you feel, and hear, it is safe to do so, use the Bench if you
would like to.

	Turn around and follow the walk way until you see something
your path forward, move it with Kinesis. Once you have moved it,
pull down the bridge to continue on. A trap will activate, but you
can shoot it, causing it to explode. A little ways past the trap
is a hallway with a set of unlocked lockers to the left. Be careful
as a trap will activate around the second to last set of pillars in
the hall. Turn around and head towards the door to find another
Supply Crate, and a Save Station on the wall to the right of the door.
**SAVE NOW**

	Head through the door...damn, AI cut off life support. I would
suggest hacking the panel first before collecting any items. Just so
you won't run out of time and not notice. There are two Stalkers in
this room, one with no legs, and one that has legs. That is one of the
few times I will tell you! Once they have been taken care of head
to the panel and hack it. Ahhh, breath in that air. Now, there
are items in this room, both of which are in Supply Cabinets, on
either end of the secondary hallway. Head through the door to enter
the Computer Mainframe Access room. Follow the walkway to see the
Mainframe...Lockdown? Looks like we have to do this the hard way.
Turn to the left, and head to the back of this room and turn right
to find a random item. Now tear off the panel on the back wall to
expose a vent. Reroute the vent, and head through. Take off all the
panels on the walls, and remove every fuse. Take the fuse with dots
that form a square and place it in the lower left opening on the third
panel. If it turns blue you're good.

	Take the fuse with dots that form a plus sign a place it in the
slot above the one above the one you just put in. Now look for the fuse
that has design and place it in the lower right hand slot.

* * *
*   *
  *

	Take the final fuse and place it in the only open spot. If you did
this correctly all the fuses should be blue, and you should hear a faint
hiss. Head back towards the vent to find a panel that allows you to
re-route the vent again, so go ahead and activate the panel. Head into
and out of the vent, look to your left to find a circuit breaker with a
Power Node in it. Now in front of the vent are two Supply Crates, and two
Supply Cabinets. Now between the pillars is PENG! **Achievement/Trophy
Unlocked** Now head back through the vent, and back into the fuse room.
And head towards the window, and look down to see a diagram of how to
arrange the fuses. Look back towards the window and activate the panel.
Leave the room via vent, leave the vent, re-route it, and head back
through the vent. Do the same with this room by looking at the floor
and arranging them the way the diagram states. Face the window again
and activate the panel.

	Leave this room, by the vent, again. Once you exit the vent, you
will see five circuits in total. Destroy them all to deactivate AI.
Head through the door to come into another hallway. In this hallway
are five Supply Crates. There are three in the secondary hallway, and
two in the main hall. Also in the secondary hall are two Supply Cabinets
on either side. Leave this hallway, to find a random item on the table
right. Towards the back of the walkway are a Save Station and a Power
Node locked door. In the Power Node locked door is a
<Contact Beam Schematic>, a plethora of random items, and a Text Log.
**SAVE WHEN IT IS SAFE** Head towards the locked door, and hack the
panel to open the door. Head through the long hall way, listen to a
bit of ranting, and activate the lift. Exit the door and activate
Zero Gravity mode. The panel in front of you is not aligned, see that
odd little station attached to the panel? Fly towards it, go behind it,
and activate it, and align it with the panel in front of you by using
the RS.

	If you look all the way down you will see an area with an 02
recharge station, and three Supply Crates. Now, look up slightly,
see that giant lump of flesh? Get near it so it notices you,
and get behind cover to where you can shoot it, but it's little
spores can't get to you. A good place would be the walkway between
the Solar Array you just aligned and the one near the blob. But, on
this walkway are three Supply Crates. Once you've killed it, it
will spit out a Conductor, collect it. At the base of this Array are
three more Supply Crates, collect them also. Head up to the top of
Array and activate and align it with the panel opposite this one.
Head towards the collector panels, and back into the lift, and take
a seat.

**TIPS**
To get through this area successfully stay towards the far right
side, the far left, and once the debris with the glass appears, far
right. For the tube, stay in the middle and fly through it, only
moving to make sure you don't hit a wall. For the GIANT piece of
debris, aim for the green spot, and maneuver with the same idea
as the tube. Which is only to make sure you don't hit a wall.
Go immediately far right, and aim for the bright spot. If you made
it, well done!
**TIPS**

In this room are four Supply Cabinets, two in front, two in back, as
well as a Medium Med Pack in the back. Outside of the room is a Supply
Crate, and a Store to your right. **Restocking is strongly Recommended**
Turn around head towards the stairs, but to the right is a Save Station.
**SAVE NOW** Turn around to find a Supply Crate, head down the stairs,
and through the door. Prepare for a fight!

	Once you hear your queue to leave, go ahead and do so. Get on the
elevator and activate it. Feel free to enjoy this heart-to-heart with
Ellie. Leave the elevator to trigger...Chapter 8!

~ Chapter 8: Quid Pro Quo ~ (1.08)
----------------------------------

	To your left is a Supply Crate on a wall, head down the ramp and
through the door. In the right hand corner of this room is a Save Station
and a Store. **SAVE NOW, Restocking is Recommended**
