Bioshock Hints

Find the submarine bay.

  • 1 of 6: When you go through the inner door, melt the nearby ice to get an automatic hack tool.
  • 2 of 6: A bit past that, you'll come to an open doorway leading into the freezer area where Peach and his splicer friends will attack you.
  • 3 of 6: After that's over, find the stairs along the north side of the area that lead down.
  • 4 of 6: Grab your weapons from the pneumo tube at the bottom of the stairs, but note that you're missing a lot of ammo. Before proceeding, you'll want to check out all of the freezer area's optional goodies, and then maybe go back through previous areas to scavenge and/or buy more ammo.
  • 5 of 6: Move along past the weapon-returning pneumo to come to a large room with a rare "Power to the People" weapon upgrade machine.
  • 6 of 6: The submarine bay you're after is in the Smugglers' Hideout region, so look around for the entrance to it after looting some nearby supplies.
