Resident Evil Requiem – Lead Researcher’s Office puzzle solution

Grace’s journey through the Rhodes Hill Chronic Care Center in Resident Evil Requiem is full of obstacles. And zombies with weapons is just one of them.

In order to properly navigate through Rhodes Hill to escape it, you need to find some key items to open up a door to get outside. Naturally, because this is Resident Evil, and nothing is ever simple or without some kind of silly puzzle standing in your way.

Another Sun, Star, and Moon puzzle stops Grace in Rhodes Hill, but there’s also some annoyances that stop you from finishing it. Here’s what you need to do to open up the Lead Researcher’s Office puzzle in RE Requiem.

The solution to this puzzle can be found within files found earlier in the game in the Chairman’s Office, including Lead Researcher’s Picture 1 and Lead Researcher’s Picture 2. In these photos, you can see the solution to open up the device in the background.

First, you need a special item to open up the case, which is the Corrosive found within the Conference Room in Rhodes Hill. Getting to the Conference Room requires encountering the massively obese Chunk enemy and getting it to leave the area so you can make your way to it.

There are a number of zombies in the Conference Room, including a singer who has no issues hitting the high notes. But once you have the Corrosive, you can bring it back to the Lead Researcher’s office to melt the lock and gain access to the puzzle.

The puzzle solution to open up the device in the Lead Researcher’s Office in RE Requiem is as follows:

• Star
• Sun
• Moon
• Sun

Inside, another key item for Rhodes Hill can be found. Grace’s journey continues onward, however, so keep safe and be ready to fight if necessary.

One of the early contracts in Marathon requires you to scan the FTL Array at any USEC Radio Tower, and the task can be slightly tricky.

This is likely going to be your first contract where the game doesn’t tell you where you need to be. The task is actually rather simple once you know where you need to reach and be. This guide will simplify the process and allow you to get all the applicable rewards.

How to locate the FTL Array in Marathon

The first task is to receive and keep the contract active. As of writing, only a contract can be kept active at any given time. Once done, start a run. Ideally, I am finding it easier to complete contracts with teammates rather than going solo.

You begin on the Perimeter map since it’s part of the contract. Once the run begins, head to the Station location. While there can be more towers located in other parts of the map, the Station POI was the nearest one for me when I was about to complete this contract.

The Station is pretty easy to locate, but the same can’t be said about the FTL Array on the USEC Radio Tower. If you’re close to the tower, you’ll find the quest icon (yellow colored) appearing on your screen. The tower can be found about E 100 on the overhead compass. However, I have marked the exact location on the image below to make it easier for you. The location isn’t random, and you’ll always find the FTL Array at this location.

How to scan the FTL Array in Marathon

Once you’ve located the tower, use one of the attached ladders to climb up. Look for a blue-colored terminal, and it will have an interactable FTL Comms Chip on it. If you’re this close to the tower, you can simply follow the icon as well.

Interact with the FTL Array and complete the scan, and this will complete your contract. Once you end your run, you’ll be able to redeem all the applicable rewards as allotted by the contract.
