Bioshock Hints
How can I survive this attack?
1 of 7: You probably can't, at least not if you try to shoot or zap-and-hack all of the bots.
2 of 7: One easy way to handle this is to turn around and go right back to the Farmer's Market.
3 of 7: Wait there a bit, then return to Arcadia.
4 of 7: You'll find that the alarm is ended, and the bots that were deployed should turn around and leave.
5 of 7: Another thing you could do is let the bots kill you, which gets you resurrected in the Vita-Chamber that's near the Gatherer's Garden machine in the Arcadia Glens area. That puts you a lot closer to your goal.
6 of 7: If you have the Natural Camouflage tonic (see the Research Tips), you could stop moving the instant Ryan starts talking to you, then just wait the security alarm out.
7 of 7: Or you could run as fast as you can through the Tree Farm area and on into Rolling Hills. If you quickly Electro-Bolt or Security-Bullseye any splicers you encounter on the way, you should make it back to Langford's research labs with little damage.
