Quake 4 Hints
Where to after Strauss is in place?
1 of 5: Don't run off right away, because soon after Strauss starts working on the console, some sentries will appear and start attacking.
2 of 5: Move quickly toward them and away from Strauss so they'll target you and not him, then use the nearby stack of crates for cover as you hit them with the nailgun (or grenades if you're accurate enough to hit the sentries with those).
3 of 5: After all the sentries are dead, you'll be ordered to return to the control room where you left Voss while Strauss remains behind to work the console.
4 of 5: Just retrace your steps to the control room, killing all the Strogg who appear along the way.
5 of 5: There'll be Strogg attacking the control room when you arrive, so help Voss take them down.
