Quake 4 Hints
After the nodes are realigned, where do I go to meet up with Cougar Squad?
1 of 6: After you use the lift that finishes the data node realigning, you can cross a small bridge to get back to good old "Sledge" and continue on through the nearby door.
2 of 6: Be ready for a major attack in the next room that includes two iron maidens, a tank guy, and several minor Strogg.
3 of 6: TIP: In the room past that, look for health and armor in a large under-the-floor area to the left of some stairs. You can find more health and armor items in a box near the room's exit.
4 of 6: >From there, move on to where you can take a lift that's right next to the tower's huge energy shaft.
5 of 6: Explore the first couple of rooms there to find some dead marines, which "Sledge" will realize are the remains of Cougar Squad.
6 of 6: TIP: Search the second room carefully to find armor and ammo, including rockets.
