Beta 2 test: U 4 E R

Euphoria: (eu pho ri a) -noun- a feeling or state of intense excitement and happiness.

Eupfhoria ( U 4 E R) -noun- a feeling or state of intense *expletive deleted* *expletive deleted*

Considered by many to be the hardest level to Vid. The cramped opening section is monster closet heaven. Who was it that said "No secret monster closets for Bungie."?... ahem.

Thankfully you're not Vidding this level. Instead you have seven seconds of BCE Super Shield left and a rocket launcher… so blast the living *expletive deleted* out of them. Five Hunters to be precise. What a rush.

The Vid tip for this level does work (just like the original) and if you get too close to the Bob's on the sun beds you will take damage (again like the original). If you look out over the two large rooms on this level the monster behaviour might look odd but this is exactly what happens in the original game.

Contrary to what some people believe, this level is set to Exploration. And if you know where the Must Be Explored polygons are you can avoid the monsters in the two large rooms altogether (works in the original and beta). Be warned though Exploration levels do have their down side. You can easily find yourself being teleported off this level before you manage to recharge. Not recommended.

So here's a tip. Once you think you've explored everywhere. Save your game, take the teleporter back to the 3X recharger, do not dilly dally, recharge and then run back to the Save Game Buffer. Once saved, take the teleporter back and stand in front of the window. This will save you time the next time you are back here again… and again.. and again...

Now this level holds a mystery. And no, it's not the secret hidden cache of UESC weapons or the oddly disappearing Deimos (now you see it… now you don't).

No sir. This mystery is much bigger.

We got tactical smart missiles, phase plasma pulse rifles, RPGs. We got sonic, electronic ball breakers! We got nukes, we got knives, sharp sticks.

But what we don't have is… Magnesium Flares.

And as everyone knows…

MAGNESIUM FLARES ARE KEWL!

So where are they?

Cheers
Hamish
