Description
Set during the fall of Rapture, players assume the role of a Plasmid test subject for Sinclair Solutions, a premier provider of Plasmids and Tonics in the underwater city of Rapture that was first explored in the original BioShock. Players will need to use all the elements of the BioShock toolset to survive as the full depth of the BioShock experience is refined and transformed into a unique multiplayer experience that can only be found in Rapture.
Hints / TipsWait for a Splicer to trip an alarm, causing two security bots to show up. Start rolling the Research Camera on one bot while it's killing the splicer and then shoot at it with one of the rapid fire weapons like the machine gun or the rivet gun. This should yield 600-800 research points per bot and there's no risk involved. Note: The fire ammo for the shotgun incurs massive bonuses for research, so zapping a Splicer and then hitting it with a few rounds repeatedly can yield up to 1100 research points depending on which Splicer and which research tonics one is using.
