Secrets[edit]

  1. In the rocket launcher room, look out the window to the east to spot two columns with electricity symbols on them. Shoot at the left one, and the window near the rocket launcher will rise, allowing you to reach the megaarmor. (sector 532)
  2. While in the same room as above, approaching the rocket launcher causes some stairs in the main area to rise. Use them and climb all the way up to an area with numerous yellow lights. Press on the terminal in the middle, and you should be able to head southwest to a secret room with energy cells and a berserk pack. (sector 726)
