Complete walkthrough for Quake II's Outer Base mission. Find objectives, secret areas, weapons, and strategies to establish a communication link and locate the base installation elevator.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    At the start, shoot the barrels to reveal a doorway. Go left before it and down an incline to collect Stimpacks.
  2. 2
    Enter the corridor. To the left, crouch into a hole in the wall to find a Flak Jacket (25 armor).
  3. 3
    Follow the narrow path, climb over a broken pillar on the left. Collect Stimpacks on the right and drop into a hole where another pillar fell.
  4. 4
    Find a Shotgun and ammo near crates. Beware of Guards. Shoot barrels behind crates to reveal a cracked floor. Shoot the crack to drop down.
  5. 5
    Keep the wall to your left in the dark area. Enter a corridor on the left, grab an Adrenaline, and climb the ladder on the right.
  6. 6
    Climb onto crates to return to the starting area.
  7. 7
    Head right through the corridor, grab Armor Shards on the left, and defeat Guards.
  8. 8
    Go through a doorway to the right leading outside. Head down the stairs.
  9. 9
    Crouch under the stairs to find a secret area with a Silencer.
  10. 10
    Go back up and continue down the corridor on the right. Jump through an open window on the right to grab Stimpacks.
  11. 11
    Continue down the corridor and through a door. Enter the room with stairs on the right and prepare to fight Enforcers. Use multiple shotgun blasts. Be aware of their arm chain gun if their heads are shot off.
  12. 12
    Collect ammo. Look for a yellow switch on the ceiling behind the stairs to reveal a secret area with grenades.
  13. 13
    Head up the stairs and follow the corridor to an elevator on the left. Step inside and press the button to end the level.
Tips
  • Enforcers are tough Strogg enemies. Your current arsenal is limited, so multiple shotgun blasts are needed.
  • Shooting an Enforcer's head off often causes their arm chain gun to activate erratically.
  • The area behind the stairs has a yellow ceiling switch that reveals a secret area with grenades.
