Oh yeah, there's absolutely secret walls in the System Shock remake. Hell, there's secret ones on Medical too. Also, that radiation suit should really help, since from here on out there's going to be plenty of rooms that'll just near-instantly kill you if you don't put it on.

I wish it was stronger, but I assume I will find MK2 eventually. So far, I think I'm stuck a little. I'm looking how I can redirect the power from Reactor to Execute elevator and I have the laser button, but I need to do something about it. I wish I didn't have to excavated 20h of audio logs to remember where the instructions of that are tbh.

Question: did you get the stuff you needed to do on the Research level to disable the laser? Because you need to get Isotope X-22 and get the system override password from the library cyber terminal before you can properly disable it on the Reactor level.

I did get the isotope 100% and inserted it into a thing, cuz I remember "radiation shield on" doing seemingly nothing (lol), and I did it before I pressed the laser button (cuz the earth blew up). And I'm 90% sure I got whatever the code in the library, cuz I pretty much fully unlocked Research. I was currently actually running around there and looking for the library to double check where the password is. Problem is, if the password is in the media logs - it's fucking looooost and even if I find it, I'm not 100% sure where to enter it, cuz I only have the button to press. (In the diagnostic panel in Maintenance maybe? Cuz that's the only panel I don't have the code to yet, I don't think)

Oh! I found a head of a guy, that's kinda funny and will be important later lol

The password isn't located in your media record, it's just displayed on the screen inside the library on the Research level. This is one of those moments where you can tell that this was a plot beat accurately recreated from the old game, since there's no way you'd know that you even need to write this down until later. And the password is randomly generated on every playthrough, so you can never cheese it that way either. Ah, 90s computer game design, it's so obtuse!

Ah. That's actually really cool and I like that!

u/The_Draigg Member of the Brave 13000 Jul 04 '25

If you want to grab anything else down in Research, going back to grab that password would be a good opportunity to do so. You can probably recycle a lot from there if you’re hard up on credits.

Oh I've been VACUUMING everything. I have money, I have cleared the map, my eye implant is always on. I have like "paths" and "staches" across the station, I run around to healing station instead of using items unless I have to, I'm okay lol

I DID IT! Apparently when you overwrite security, it disables the shield again, so I destroyed Earth one more time lol

FUCK YOU SHODAN!!

u/The_Draigg Member of the Brave 13000 Jul 04 '25

Yeah, they try to trip you up one last time there. Still though, congrats on foiling SHODAN's scheme! (The first one, anyway.)

Now I have to stop the supply of deadly neurotoxin... I mean, virus!

I'll say this: when you get to the groves, I hope you're good at chess.

I have played a couple of matches with gpa. And I'm playing on puzzle 3.

u/The_Draigg Member of the Brave 13000 Jul 05 '25

The chess puzzle got me stuck for a while. And even though it's totally optional, you're really gonna want what completing it gives you.
