System Shock Hints
Notes
You start at point A. Check the door on the left at the beginning of the game. You'll find items you pretty much need. Once you exit, explore around. The code to the door can be found by reading a note from yourself. If you don't feel like doing that, the code is 4-5-1. After you get out, check at point B for some weapons and patches (this is the stash that you read about in that note to yourself). You can also check out Point I for some info on the plot.
If you look at the map, it may look easy to get to those computer nodes (point H) It isn't -- there's a force door that you can only turn off from the opposite side. First, you'll need to head to Gamma Quadrant and get to the big radioactive (enterance at point E) area to get to the other side. You will also need to hit a switch at point F to raise another force bridge across a chasm. Now continue on your search, looking for the nodes. You know you're getting close when SHODAN says "You are not welcome here" or something to that effect.
Also, the elevator (point J) is behind a bulkhead door that cannot be opened. You'll need to go around. Near the cyborg conversion chamber, there's a door that branches west. There's a lift that will take you down. You'll also get an e-mail from Rebecca when you find the right place.
