Secret game:
1) Enter the ZVOS terminal within the control room
2) Enter the communications area
3) Go to Local Communications
4) You will see an access denial message at the bottom of the screen, hit
the triangle button for a secret game, similar to ASTEROIDS.
To escape MRP-6F and win (you can escape and get a losing ending - actually
there are a couple of losing endings) you need to collect the following:
A. Robot PAD (personal access device) - can be found when you're in the
Control Room. Enter the area in the upper right hand corner of the
Control Room and you'll find the PAD at 12 o'clock - you'll have to step
right first to avoid the wall.
B. Self Destruct PAD - You can find one of these on Level 7 Administration -
needed to set the self destruct timer before escaping the complex.
C. (2) Fighter Escort PADs - found at crash sites of ships you shoot down -
Some of the "green dot" crash sites will yield these (after the third
attack wave or so). Fighter Escorts protect your unarmed shuttle when you
escape.
D. Security Upgrade - found at a "Yellow dot" crash site - upgrades your
security clearance and is the proof you need that this attack on MRP-6F
was engineered by the Tyron Corporation's Defense Department.
E. Shuttle PAD - found at the very first crash site (white dot) - the
shuttle that's shot down at the beginning of the game.
Also recommended: The Software Control PAD - found on level 6 Administration
The area to the immediate right of the Control Room access door -allows you
to fine tune the defense software so it actually works properly (and defends
the space station).
Other Important Things to Note:
* Every Berserker or Combat Droid that is destroyed in the complex pollutes
the area on the immediate level. Keep a close eye on the oxygen meter for
each are you explore - unbreathable air causes damage and eventually,
death!
* You can make unbreathable air in an area more breathable by opening doors
to other areas (such as elevators) and letting the cleaner air mix with
the contaminated air. Or you can send out your combat droids to do this
for you.
* You can lock doors in the complex - a great trick for trapping Berserkers
so they can't chase you. Go into any VOS terminal - Go to the Map Icon -
by moving the cursor over any door and pressing the Triangle button, you
can lock the door. Wait patiently for a Berserker or two to wander into a
room on your level, then lock the door behind them, trapping them.
* Know where there's an accessable LIMO station. The LIMO is what takes you
around the complex and most importantly, to Hangar A when you're ready to
escape. Sometimes LIMO stations get shut down due to damage to the
complex. Make sure you have a path for getting off the defense station!
* Once you've collected everything you need, you need to go into the VOS in
the Control Room and set Self Destruct. Tyron Corporation protocol insists
that if a defense station is overrun by intruders, Self Destruct MUST be
set before leaving (so Tyron secrets don't fall into enemy hands). You
will not be allowed to leave if Self Destruct hasn't been activated.
