Aquatic Life

Dive into the Aquatic Life section of our Dispatch walkthrough! Learn about the creatures, challenges, and tips to help you navigate this underwater world and achieve 100% completion.

Hey there! So you're looking to tackle the 'Aquatic Life' part of Dispatch? It's a pretty unique section of the game, and while the source text here doesn't give us specific gameplay details for this particular area, it does give us a good overview of what we're aiming for in the game as a whole. Think of this as a heads-up on what's generally important for completing Dispatch, especially when it comes to achievements and making sure you don't miss anything.

The main thing to keep in mind is that getting 100% in Dispatch usually means going through the game at least twice, and sometimes replaying the last couple of episodes a third time. This is mainly because of the different endings and how your romance choices can affect things. There's even an achievement, 'We Can Just Be Friends', that requires you to finish the game without romancing anyone. The good news is you can break off a romance in Episode 7 and still get credit for 'no romances' when you finish Episode 8, saving you a whole extra playthrough.

Now, this guide is definitely going to spoil things, so if you're aiming for a blind playthrough first, I totally get it! The story in Dispatch is really well-written, and you'll want to experience those big moments without knowing they're coming. This guide is more about optimizing your playthroughs to snag achievements with as little backtracking as possible.

The toughest achievement you'll likely run into is the 'H4ack3d By R0b3rt Achievement'. This one means you have to nail all 28 Hack Levels. The real kicker here is the game's checkpoint system – it's not the most forgiving. Mess up a Hack Level or an important Call, and you'll probably have to restart the whole Shift. There's no quick 'reload last checkpoint' option; you have to quit to the main menu and reload your save. This can really mess with your Call RNG and just become a bit of a grind. I'll do my best to make those Hack Levels as straightforward as possible when we get to them.

Also, remember that all your Z-Team Heroes are important. Make sure you're trying to assign them to Calls whenever you can. Sometimes, certain episodes will limit who you have available, and your favorites might not be among them. While I won't go into the specifics of leveling them up here, just know that keeping your team ready is key.

So, while we don't have the exact steps for 'Aquatic Life' itself from this source, keep these general principles in mind: multiple playthroughs, careful choices, mastering those hack levels, and utilizing your whole team. We'll figure out the specifics when we get there!
