Mechanic — briefing

Hey! Got an update on that locked room. Rumor has it the ex-USECs have been seen around there for a while. Maybe they know how to open the doors. The other question is, what happened to whoever was inside? Either they escaped or they are already dead. We should find out. See if you can find anything interesting there while you're at it.

Objectives

• Locate and obtain the hard drive inside the cottage hideout on Lighthouse
• (Optional) Obtain the USEC cottage room key
• Hand over the hard drive

Tactical notes

• The whole task stays on one map: Lighthouse.

On completion

Mechanic: So it's empty inside. That's good: if there are no bodies, chances are the refugees are alive. You know about the superposition principle, right? All right, back to the point. I looked through the drive. There was a password [bmV3ZGF3bi4u] with "important" written on it. I think you can figure it out.
