Act 2 - Chapter 1 - Ascension City Park II | Act 2 - Chapter 1 Bionic Commando Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Hidden bonuses: 5
Level walkthrough: Keep going straight. Get on top of a small platform located to your right in order to collect the first bonus item. Notice that enemy soldiers are stationed under your current position. There are a lot of ways for you to get rid of them - you can use grenades, firearms or Death from Above ability.
Head down and start pushing forward. Bear in mind that you'll be dealing with large numbers of enemy troops along the way and that heavily armored soldiers will be among them. Each time you've suffered a few hits retreat and hide behind one of the pillars. Don't forget to collect ammunition, as well as the second bonus item which can be found near the ceiling.
When you reach the opposite end of the corridor you'll have to use your bionic arm to get to a new upper balcony. Watch out for an elite soldier near your position and kill him as soon as possible. Head forward until you reach a relay station where you'll have to eliminate other guards. I would recommend using grenades to kill them. Hack into the system.
Use the hook for the second time in order to get to the upper balcony. Look for an exit and then go to your left. Keep heading towards a small bridge located in the distance. Naturally you don't have to use the bridge, but that's where you'll encounter more enemy troops. Attack the guards from a larger distance and surprise them if you can.
If you like to use firearms to dispose of enemy troops you might want to consider going to a pod which will land near the bridge. Doing this will allow you to pick up a machine gun. Go to the area where you've seen the largest group and take the third bonus item. It's near the cliff.
You may start moving towards the next checkpoint. When you get to a much larger area you should notice that a Biomech is waiting for you on the other side of the cliff. Attack the mech from here and use the fact that the machine can't reach you from where it's standing. Throw a couple of boulders at the mech to damage it.
Head over to the platform occupied by the machine and you'll notice that other Biomechs have arrived in the area. I would strongly recommend that you now focus on finding a pod with a rocket launcher. Go back to the previous ledge where you were safe from the first mech and use your grenade launcher to destroy all metal beasts. If you run out of ammo you'll have to defeat them in direct combat and using objects found in the environment.
Go to the ledge with the mech once again, but this time turn right. You shouldn't have any major problems spotting the fourth bonus item. Notice that it's hidden near the water, so you'll have to be very careful while trying to get to it.
Take the hidden object, turn around and stop near the ledge. Turn right and you should notice the final fifth bonus item near the rocky beachhead. Go there and add this object to your inventory. Once this is done proceed to a ramp leading to a new building.
