Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory Hints

How can I get to the war room from the escalator area?

  • 1 of 7: If you go down the escalator and sneak around, you'll find a bathroom with a medkit, some elevators that don't work, and a door down some stairs that's locked with a retinal scanner.
  • 2 of 7: The sealed door to the war room is just across from the elevators, but you're not going to be able to get in until you unlock those doors from somewhere else.
  • 3 of 7: The first thing to do is to take down two of the three guards who are roaming about.
  • 4 of 7: Then figure out a way to open up the door that's locked with a retinal scanner.
  • 5 of 7: Past the retinal scan door is a hall with two doors in it, both of them locked. The one without a keycode panel is optional -- you can raid it for a couple of sticky shockers if you want to. The other door is the one to the server room.
  • 6 of 7: Once you're in the server room, you need to use a certain computer in order to unlock the war room doors.
  • 7 of 7: When that's accomplished, head back to the area with the elevators and approach the war room doors to get them to politely shoosh open for you.
