Quake 4 Hints
How do I get to this tower's rooftop?
1 of 13: You'll have to accompany some marines through several Strogg-infested areas in order to reach a teleporter, and then you can make your way through some wrecked areas to reach the elevator to the roof.
2 of 13: When you first start this level, enjoy the *huge* supply cache near the tram track that the three marines are guarding. There's lots of great stuff there!
3 of 13: Then find the nearby energy-core-style lift and take it up.
4 of 13: Help the marines in the area past the top of the lift kill off the remaining Strogg, then head across the room and check out the only unlocked door.
5 of 13: The passage on its other side is blocked by flaming debris, and a security alert complete with ceiling turrets and lots of teleport-in Strogg will start up.
6 of 13: TIP: Feel free to use your railgun, since several of the Strogg that teleport in will have railguns you can get ammo from after they're dead.
7 of 13: After you and the marines have finished off all the enemies, Strauss will remotely unlock one of the room's side doors for you.
8 of 13: After healing up with the tech and medic, go through the door and activate the bridge with the nearby panel so you can cross.
9 of 13: In the large and dark room past that, hit the "call lift" button and then get ready to deal with a gunner on the lift and then another large teleport-in squad of Strogg marines.
10 of 13: After they're finished off, get on the lift with the remaining marines and go up to find a tank guy waiting for you (plus more teleport-in Strogg, of course).
11 of 13: TIP: In the next room of teleport-ins, check for a suit of armor in a dark corner near a console before moving on.
12 of 13: Battle on until you reach a room with a teleporter in the center of it that Strauss advises you to take.
13 of 13: When you jump into it, you'll be teleported to Data Networking Security, where you'll finally be able to reach the tower rooftop.
