You'll run into a half-dozen more soldiers as you cross the long walkway, pass some broken vending machines and head up a ladder. You'll ultimately need to raise this entire platform to reach the power cell charging station, but first, you'll need to activate the reserve power generator. You'll find some health packs on occasion, and be sure to pick up all the ammo the dead soldiers leave behind.Ī few rooms ahead, you'll reach a health station just outside a long platform overlooking a coolant drainage area. Take your time, and retreat when necessary. You're in for a good deal of fighting - stand back and wait for them to break through.Īs soon as the soldiers break through, hit them with everything you've got - grenades, satchels, rockets, anything you can find. After a few seconds, you'll hear some marines breaking in on the other side of the door, and then start to cut through with a blowtorch. Head back the way you came, down the lift, towards the elevator, and go over to the door with the broken keypad. This is the power cell charging station, and is your ultimate goal for this chapter - but you have a lot of work to do before you can get inside.

You can't open any more of the doors up here (if you could, you'd nearly be done), but through the fence you'll see another scientist and security guard get attacked by a Vortigaunt. Kill the bullsquid, grab the dead security guard's armor, and ride the lift to the right. And wait, let me guess - I'm the only one who can go down and charge up a new one, right?
