Prologue | Walkthrough Lost Planet 3 Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
You start as shipwrecked in the frosty and unwelcoming planet of Akrid. Your first objective is to find the transponder so, follow the marker. You will reach a spot where you will obtain a weapon. Shoot the first akrid. Follow the only possible path until you bump into sepias coming in larger numbers.
Take them all down, they are not going to be a problem, you also will not deplete your ammo. Reach the spot where the transponder is located and collect it. You will watch a short cutscene, during which you will be able to admire akrids running in your direction (you can also shoot at them). A moment later, you will have to play a QTE event. By pressing the appropriate key [F], you will repel the enemy. You do not need to worry too much because, soon, you will receive reinforcements in the form of a large mech, which you need to follow.
After a short cutscene, you will watch another cutscene, followed by another monster attack. Keep shooting at them and collect the T-energy that they drop. A moment later, you will have to fix the mechanism - approach the marked spot ad press, and hold down, the repair key [V]. after you succeed, hop onboard.
After the cutscene, you will receive a new objective - talk to the mechanic. Before you do, though, explore the board for a moment, in search of e.g. logs (the Collectibles chapter). Finally, take the elevator and go down to level 1 (basement level). Talk to the mechanic Ola. Then, arm yourself with knife at the quartermaster's at the same level.
After that, go to level 2 where you need to talk to the mechanic again. Then, mount your mech. Make sure everything is working properly - the claw, the drill. Then go ahead - go towards the gate on the right and walk into Coronis.
