#System shock 2 ops override access card code

I’m getting messages that Shodan is attempting to separate the bridge at this point so I don’t hang around.

I have to climb a really large ladder through a radiactive area and then enter a very strange looking room. The bridge pops up just where I expected it and I head back and into the central building. The textures are very low res on the downside. It’s the sort of thing we take for granted these days but I can’t think of a game where I saw this again until years after this. These screens that show a realtime view of the world must have been a first for System Shock. This is shown being activated on the screen next to it. I find the switch to activate the force bridge nearby. I must be getting near now as I get an email from Earth telling me what to do on the bridge + a little map of the level. The downside is that my shots can bounce back off an enemy and hit me. The shots bounce around as well so I can shoot round corners. This thing goes through energy very quickly but can kill plenty of creatures in one hit. There would have to be something very nice in there for me to go all the way back at this point and all I remember seeing is a load of mutants. Writing this now I’m thinking of the locked up area on level 6 but thats just a guess. I manage to open some detention cells but I’ve no idea where these are. This is actually a lot easier as I can slow down. I also have to navigate myself through the tunnels rather than being sucked through + there are no arrows to guide me. Cyberspace is largely empty this time around. He does appear to be wholeheartedly supporting Shodan. I find a log from Edward Diego who has obviously been here first. I’m not sure if there is any benefit to destroying these on this level but since I’m here I may as well. The CPU node room is in this building also. I find a command access card in an office. This is a lot easier as I know where enemies are coming from. This will help a lot and I can just leave my shield on all the time.įrom here I work my way into one of the outer buildings and things revert back to normal. On the far side of the central building I find a door with a recharge station in it. There are a lot of them on platforms half-way up buildings as well as the ones that are flying around. If I start getting shot at, its often hard to figure out where the cyborg thats shooting me is. I’ve not found anywhere to heal so I have to be careful. I slowly work my way around the outside of the central structure. I’m guessing that the bridge will end up being here. My aim on this level is to turn on a lightbridge to allow me access to the bridge. There is definitely an outdoor feeling to things with such a high ceiling. It puts me in mind a bit of some of the city levels in Doom 2. As ever this level is very different to whats gone before. This level is tall with things flying around way above that shoot me if I don’t take them out. The security level is where Shodan has been building her fortress that I’ve been hearing about throughout the game. I’m told by Rebecca that I now have to get to the bridge (via security). I kind of wish I hadn’t known how many levels were in this game beforehand as this might have come as a surprise. The countdown begins and it looks like I’ve won.

I open up an escape pod using the code I got in an email much earlier…. He is waiting for me by the escape pods so I have to defeat him once more. This wasn’t clear at the time (although it was his office that I fought him in). It turns out that the dual lightsabre bloke I fought earlier on was a cyborg version of him. When I get to Level 5, I get a message from Edward Diego who is still around. Shodan doesn’t take too well to this and releases a load of new minions to make my progress all the way back to the escape pods difficult. This time it works and I can pull the lever to start the reactor explosion. It sounds to have accepted this but nothing happens. I try entering the three numbers from the first 3 levels first. I activate an anti-gravity pad and float up to the top. The reactor code has to be enterred into a panel up inside the reactor rods. Apart from being highly radioactive its extremely well guarded and I need a few attempts to get through as I’m hacked down in seconds before I’ve thinned the numbers down. Its then back to the Reactor level for the area I’ve not explored yet. I work my way through the rest of the levels backwards at a much quicker speed as I can head straight for the right room each time. For the fifth floor I honestly had no idea where that room was and I didn’t take a screenshot at the time so I ended up searching all over until I blundered into a screen with a number on it. I carry on finding all the numbers I need from the CPU rooms.
