Bioshock Hints
East Street Combat Tips
1 of 8: Start down the east street on its left side after either hacking or destroying the health station that's a bit left of the street entrance.
2 of 8: A machine gun splicer will almost certainly see you, so quickly lead her back to your hacked turret and help it shoot her down. (Note that there's an explosive barrel hazard on the way back to the turret that you can use to damage the splicer.)
3 of 8: After that, you'll need to deal with the turret that's on a raised median ledge behind a small wall of photos near the start of the street.
4 of 8: Quickly run up to the photo wall and then wait to get Electro Bolt or Winter Blast if you want. Or you can quickly strafe-and-shoot the turret to pieces.
5 of 8: However you handle the turret, move down to the other wall of photos and hack the security camera that's on its other side.
6 of 8: The benefits will be immediate. The camera will spot a play-dead splicer and sound the alarm, causing bots to appear and shoot the splicer for you.
7 of 8: After both play-deaders are really dead, sneak on down to the entrance to Artemis Suites and crossbow-snipe a machine gun splicer as he walks around back there.
8 of 8: NOTE: There's very little in the way of supplies on this street, so I don't have any notes or tips about them.
