How to Find the Key to the Administration Service Room

Not so Fast, Major! Or at least that is the name of the quest we will have to complete. Just as you were about to enter the supply or administration service room, you find out that you need a key that otherwise renders the door unable to open. That’s convenient, right? And Charles won’t be able to be much help either. Anyway, we will have to find the key and well, things will get stealthy.

You see, while you follow the objective marker, you will be prompted with a screen telling you about the Dandelion CCTV Cameras, which is the Facility’s security system. The way it works is quite obvious: get caught, and killer robots will be sent to fight the player. Furthermore, if the cameras spot you fighting with robots, the alarm level increases and it will call reinforcements. So, it is up to you how to proceed. Will you enter gun’s blazing, getting rid of all the robots and cameras? Or will you use stealth to distract nearby cameras by throwing objects and avoiding their line of sight?

Well, whichever way you choose to proceed, be sure to scan the area to locate enemies and cameras and continue moving towards the objective marker. Once in the room, scan the area again, and you will find the key to the administration service room. Go back to the locked door and you will be able to proceed.

Remember to keep an eye for cameras, those robots do bring quite a punch, so if you plan to take them on, then be aware that it won’t be easy. Stealth can be frustrating, but ultimately rewarding. Having said that, it is entirely up to you. Me, personally? I will try to avoid the cameras as much as I can, but if I have to bring down a couple of robots, well, where do I sign?
