What each player can do here

P1 · Kait (JD in Act I)
  • Hijacked Swarm fight on your side for a while.
P2 · Jack or Del
  • A co-op partner can play Jack as a support seat.
  • Jack runs the gantry and the consoles, rips welded doors and resets the turntable.

If your skill levels differ: Uneven pair: the newer player can take Jack, the support robot (scans, fetches, opens doors and revives), while the steadier shot takes a soldier seat and carries the gunfights. How to split the roles

Command centre

Part 1 of 3. Get the files and reach the satellites.

  1. BothIn the command centre, have Jack pull the files from the console.
  2. BothSend Jack to bring the gantry over, then ride it across.
  3. BothAt the welded door, Jack cuts through while you hold off the waves from the turret; a Warden ends the wave (helmet first, then head).

Loading the satellites

Part 2 of 3. Move both satellites onto the rocket.

  1. BothPull the lever for the first satellite; it jams, so climb up and force it loose, and two Pouncers attack.
  2. BothRide the gantry under fire to the second satellite; two Flocks attack at the bottom of the ladder before you can move it.
  3. BothFight down through the lower corridors; a Carrier attacks near the end, then Jack opens the door to the lift out.

Clearing the rail line

Part 3 of 3. Turn the tracks and lower the bridge for the rocket.

  1. BothRide to the train turntable and clear it; when the Warden arrives with a Bastion, destroy the Bastion first.
  2. BothHave Jack turn the tracks from the control room.
  3. BothAt the bridge control house the controls are wrecked: use the rocket launcher on the bridge's bracket to bring the bridge down.
  4. BothA Pouncer and more Swarm attack as you leave; finish them to end the chapter.
