Bioshock 2 Hints

Is there any way to turn off an alarm early?

  • 1 of 4: Most areas with security cameras will have bot shutdown panels nearby.
  • 2 of 4: If an alarm is active, you can use the bot shutdown panel to cancel the alarm and cause all deployed security bots to deactivate.
  • 3 of 4: The bots can then be hacked to be friendly to you and help you fight other enemies.
  • 4 of 4: NOTE: Hacking the camera that sounded the alarm will always immediately cancel the alarm. You can do this quickly by using an auto-hack dart if you have one. (However, the bots will fly away instead of deactivating, and chasing them down is usually impossible.)
