It's not too hard, they're not really built for security. It takes a bit of smashing, but you mangle it enough to wrench it open after a short time.

On the other side is the crew room, where most of the lab staff spend their leisure time. It's a scene of carnage, with what would look like around half a dozen people torn apart in there.

Shit, it looks like they killed off everyone who wasn't with them. I can only imagine how fast these people got torn up by those stormer abominations. No offense, Eraser.
Also, I've forgotten if I made it to my armor to put that on or not, and I can't be arsed to look through the thread to find out.

Unlikely, I'd have set a Stormer on you if you'd have ventured off alone and unarmoured.

If there is nowt but corpses, I guess I will carry on charging at em.

Anyone considered what we are going to do if they don't drop dead when they go outside?

I was wondering that myself, and all I could think of was shooting them all.

The facility shudders as it starts its descent to the surface. On screen Shelton is encouraging the people in the other facilities to make a break for it. From the direction of the crew quarters you hear screaming.

Let's go! I will start running that direction. Not so fast that I leave everyone behind, but if we can save anyone then it's worth a go.

More dismembered bodies mark your path to the quarters, where there is chaos and carnage. The remainder of the crew are being gradually picked off by half a dozen of the Stormers, who seem mostly oblivious to the screaming as they casually eviscerate them one at once.

Just so im sure I understand the situation:

We have come in one side of the crew quarters.
On the other side of the crew quarters (which im guessing isnt that far away) are some wierdy stormers casually groping crew to death.
But we are not in bullet tiem?

Im going to make sure im far enough in to the room to not get in the way of the others if they want to get in too, then i'll drop into a nice firing stance and sight up on the heed of one of the stormers. I wont be firing untill the rest of the squad get into position or something kicks off though.

Should we be killing these things? They're probably ridiculously expensive and belong to SLA.

On the other hand, they are slaughtering the crew that *isnt* joining the cult wierdos to go tree hugging. We havent had any orders telling us not to, and I would be quite surprised if they dont turn around and start on us once they have finished pulling the softer targets apart.

So im going to shoot em.

Hmm, yeah maybe we should be in bullet time. They don't seem to have noticed you yet though. I'll give everyone chance to get into position, so long as you don't take the piss, before we do. The staff notice you and start screaming for you to help them/shoot the stormers, but again the Stormers don't seem to notice as they're raking the corpses of their most recent victims.

I'll give the guys a couple of seconds to get in and a bit sorted, then im going to start plugging gribblies. I'll use the time to get pointed at its head and get as many aims in as possible.

Well hurry up and get into position guys, I want to start shootan these things. If it's my turn to get attacked by them that's cool, I can dodge and parry well enough I think.

Lets say you get one round to get in and positioned before bullet time actually starts. You can use that to aim, charge in, or whatever.
