Follow this SOMA walkthrough to find the Comm Center at Site Upsilon 2. Includes details on the Hunchback Robot, Semken's ID, and powering the Comm Center door.
Simon must find the Comm Center to re-establish contact with a stranger over the radio. The Comm Center is a room with a domed ceiling.
Walkthrough
- 1Follow the catwalk to a ladder and climb down. Be aware that the ladder may detach.
- 2Look for a staircase. A hostile robot, the HUNCHBACK ROBOT, will enter the room. Sneak around, avoiding its searchlight.
- 3You can sneak up the stairs and use a wheel to divert steam pipes, but this will alert the robot. Instead, sneak to the staircase and ascend to the landing.
- 4Use the switch to open an overhead hatch. Quickly go up the stairs and use the switch at the top to close the hatch behind you.
- 5At the top of the stairs, you'll find a HEALING POD to the left. Check the map on the wall. Control Station B was used by Azzaro and Semken. You can examine sketches on the floor, Amy's sketchbook, and another sketch on a footlocker.
- 6Enter the workshop. Touch the robot on the floor. This robot's presence is explained by one having attacked Semken before being disabled by Azzaro.
- 7Enter Assembly B. A robot on the assembly line speaks like Carl Semken. Engage in conversation with it.
- 8Exit Assembly B and open the door to the left. In the hallway, you'll find a corpse. Check the ID Badge; it belongs to Carl Semken, 0722. You can TOUCH the corpse to obtain the same information as the robot in the workshop.
- 9Return to Control Station B and go to the terminals. Select the terminal on the right without a sticky note. Click 'Change' and enter Semken's ID, 0722, to log in. You can view the status, event log, and power output. The event log notes an impact quake on 2103-01-12 @ 5:31:57, followed by blackouts at Lambda, Omicron, and Delta.
- 10The other terminal allows access to mail, the power manager, and a staff listing. The unsent mail discusses the Upsilon auto-process. The Power Manager lets you restore power to Storage and Flow Control. Power to the Comm Center requires action in either Assembly B or Flow Control. The Staff option lists Upsilon personnel and their last known locations:
- Chief Factor - Jane Adams (Theta)
- 11Dispatcher - Vigdis Jonsdottir (Theta)
- 12Geotechnical Engineer - Baxter Rogers (Theta)
- 13Field Service Technician - Amy Azzaro (Upsilon - Shuttle Station B)
- 14Gavin Finley (Theta)
- 15Louise Meuron (Theta)
- 16Wranglers
- Carl Semken (Upsilon - Control Deck)
- 17Aashish Shanakr (Theta)
- 18In the Storage room, find a pamphlet on the CCRV-7 Blackbox implant.
- 19To power the door to the Comm Center, choose either Assembly B or Flow Control.
- Assembly B: Enter Assembly B and power up the conveyor belt. This will cause the Carl Semken robot to suffer. Return to the terminal, select Power Manager, and power on the Comm Center. Use the switch to open the hatch and ascend the stairs.
- 20Flow Control: Go to Flow Control and use the lever to cut off power. Exit the room.
- 21Proceed to either Assembly B or Flow Control to power up the door to the Comm Center.
