System Shock 2 Hints
The ladder to Pod 2 from Missile Storage is broken!
1 of 14: Yes it is. Someone sabotaged it.
2 of 14: But if you look up, you'll notice that only part of the ladder is missing. If only you could jump a few extra feet to reach that ladder...
3 of 14: Have you tried playing with the controls in this room?
4 of 14: There are four buttons on a control panel in the center of the room. Press them to move each of the missiles between three possible heights.
5 of 14: If you find the right heights for the missiles, you can reach the ladder.
6 of 14: Take another careful look at the characteristics of this room.
7 of 14: There is a walkway between the two missiles that are behind you when you're facing the control panel.
8 of 14: And there's also a slanted gap in the wall near the front-right missile.
9 of 14: When the missile below that gap is at its lowest level, you can mantle up to the gap.
10 of 14: And then perhaps jump between all the other missiles.
11 of 14: Press the buttons for the other three missiles (the first, second, and fourth buttons from the left) until those missiles are in their highest positions.
12 of 14: Then, mantle to the gap, walk until you're near the raised missile, and jump.
13 of 14: Jump from that missile to the catwalk and jump again to the missile on the other side of the catwalk.
14 of 14: Finally, take running jumps from that missile to another and onto the ladder.
