High on Life 2 Part 22 walkthrough covering the rail car elevator, armor battery, and the optional side area with the C4 satchel bomb.
Walkthrough
- 1When the rail car stops at a lowered barrier arm, get off and approach the security guard.
- 2After he speaks, use the switch on the wall near him to raise the barrier arm.
- 3Nudge the security guard until he walks onto the track in front of the rail car.
- 4Get on the rail car and use it to run over the security guard.
- 5Quicksave (save your game manually) before moving onto the rail car elevator.
- 6Be aware of four barnacles on the ceiling above the elevator. You can try to ride the elevator down and move on without being caught by their tongues.
- 7If you are caught, Quickrestore (load your last save) and try again, possibly changing your position on the rail car.
- 8If you continue to be caught, move to a position where you can shoot all the barnacles before riding the elevator.
- 9At the bottom, ride the rail car forward through the electrified water until section c2a2a loads.
- 10As you move forward, you will pass under a place in the ceiling with a headcrab; you can likely ignore it.
- 11After going up a ramp and leaving the electrified water, you can abandon your rail car and proceed without using them, though this is not the optimal path.
- 12Soon after the car turns right, you will reach a small wooden platform on the right with an armor battery. Stop next to it if you need armor.
- 13To get the armor battery if it is beneath the platform, get onto the platform, bash it with the crowbar, fall into the water, swim back to the ladder, and climb onto the houndeyes' side area.
- 14Move around the corner past the armor battery, stop the car, and put it in reverse.
- 15Back up to a side area with three houndeyes bouncing around and quickly kill them with the assault rifle.
- 16Park the rail car next to their floor where it does not block the red ladder going down into the water.
- 17Drop into the water. If you use your flashlight, you can reach the entrance to an underwater tunnel.
- 18Crouch as you approach the tunnel entrance.
- 19To avoid drowning and leeches, drop into the water past the front of the rail car and keep your head above water as much as possible.
- 20When you must be underwater, go quickly and only stop to deal with a leech if it will run into you.
- 21The underwater tunnel leads to a spot where you can get bullets next to a dead security guard.
- 22After getting the bullets, head back the way you came and climb the ladder to get onto the houndeyes' floor.
- 23Enter the nearby corridor to reach section c2a2b2, an optional side area.
- 24In the side room ahead to the left, there is a bullsquid.
- 25To deal with the bullsquid, get out the assault rifle, move into the room so it sees you, then immediately run back out and down the hallway to a room with three houndeyes.
- 26Use the assault rifle to kill the three houndeyes.
- 27Return to the hallway to find the bullsquid from the side room fighting another bullsquid that appeared.
- 28Shoot one bullsquid until it dies, then quickly shoot the other until it dies.
- 29Look into the watery area next to the houndeyes' room to find another bullsquid.
- 30Shoot any explosive barrels near the bullsquid in the water.
- 31Finish off the bullsquid in the water.
- 32If you need ammo clips, search near the bodies in the big side room.
- 33If you need shotgun ammo, approach the big red "BLAST DANGER" doors at the back of the room and open them.
- 34Crouch and move forward until you see the feet of a marine on the other side of a rocket.
- 35Wait for the marine to be attacked by headcrabs.
- 36Finish off any surviving marine(s) with the pistol.
- 37Run back and grab the marine's shotgun.
- 38Avoid the headcrabs that drop down nearby by immediately running back through the blast doors.
- 39Return to where you shot a bullsquid in the water.
- 40Use the switch on the wall near the watery room to extend a bridge over it.
- 41If you do not have five tripmines, drop into the water.
- 42There is one tripmine in the water near the green crate.
- 43After getting the tripmine, jump-crouch onto the crate.
- 44Do a running jump-crouch to the nearest wall ledge.
- 45Crouch fast after jumping to avoid being zapped by the electrical cable.
- 46Turn left and hop onto a higher piece of concrete.
- 47Move onto the bridge.
- 48Kill the two barnacles in the room past the bridge with the crowbar.
- 49Use the .357 to sneak-shoot.
Tips
- You can get the security guard to use the switch for you.
- If you get caught by a barnacle tongue on the rail car elevator, try changing your position on the rail car.
- The headcrab you pass under after the rail car elevator likely just jumps between ceiling parts.
- You can get armor from the battery on the small wooden platform on the right.
- The armor battery is beneath the wooden platform; get onto the platform and bash it with the crowbar, then fall into the water and swim back to use the ladder to climb onto the houndeyes' side area.
- There are no leeches in the underwater section according to the source.
- The optional side area includes your first C4 satchel bomb.
- You can sneak-shoot the bullsquid in the side room.
- Alternatively, you can lure the bullsquid out and have it fight other enemies.
- If you sneak-shoot the bullsquid in the side room, go up the stairs and sneak-shoot one or two of the houndeyes before finishing them off with the shotgun.
- Shoot explosive barrels near the bullsquid in the water if possible.
- If you need shotgun ammo, you can get a shotgun from a marine who is attacked by headcrabs behind blast doors.
- Avoid the headcrabs that drop down nearby by running back through the blast doors immediately.
- If you don't have five tripmines, you can find one in the water near the green crate.
- Crouch fast after jumping to avoid the dangling electrical cable.
