Bioshock 2 Hints
Combat Preparation Tips
1 of 6: Look through the left locked gate to see a security camera, then carefully dart-hack it through an opening in the gate.
2 of 6: Get out your rivet gun and switch to trap rivet ammo, then use it all to set up traps for the splicers who'll be charging in after you.
3 of 6: Set at least three trap rivets next to each locked gate, then use the rest to guard the stairs.
4 of 6: NOTE: If any of your trap rivets land on a slanty surface and end up pointing way up or way down, pick them back up and try again, maybe crouching to help you fire them at better spots.
5 of 6: The door at the top of the stairs will be locked after the combat begins, so don't bother setting any trap rivets past it.
6 of 6: When you're done, reload regular rivets in your rivet gun.
