Guide to reporting the Alien incident to Waits and the Marshals in Alien: Isolation. Learn how to proceed after witnessing the creature.

Alright, so you've had a close encounter with the Alien, and Chief Porter's log is about to go out. This part isn't about combat or sneaking; it's about understanding the narrative and what the characters are experiencing.

What's Happening:

Chief Porter's log, "I Saw It," describes a terrifying encounter. He saw the Alien, but it vanished, seemingly into the station's infrastructure. He realizes this is what the Marshals have been hunting and feels this information should have been shared with him.

Meanwhile, another log, "Power Delivery," shows the station is in chaos with power issues, and Chief is asking someone named Flores to check Reactor Maintenance. Then, "I'm Coming to Find You" reveals the dire situation: Sanders is dead, engineers are missing, and Chief himself narrowly escaped an android. He's built a makeshift weapon and is heading to find Flores.

Finally, Flores's log, "Shutters Code," confirms they're heading to Reactor Maintenance and provides the code (6832) to lock the shutters behind them, likely for safety.

Your Role:

At this point in the game, you're not directly interacting with Waits or the Marshals. You're piecing together the escalating crisis on Sevastopol through these audio logs and transmissions. The logs from Chief Porter and Flores highlight the immediate dangers – the Alien, hostile androids, and the failing station infrastructure. They also set up the context for why Waits and the Marshals are involved, though you won't be directly reporting to them in this specific segment.

Tips for Moving Forward
  • Pay Attention to Logs: These audio logs are crucial for understanding the story and the environment. Don't skip them!
  • Context is Key: While you can't report directly yet, these logs build the narrative tension and explain the urgency of the situation.
  • Prepare for Threats: The mention of androids and the Alien's presence means you should always be alert and ready to use your tools or stealth.
