Tau station | Collectibles in SOMA Game SOMA Guide and Walkthrough

Data Buffer panel.

When the entrance to the station opens, go through it, move a little further forward and then take a turn to the left. Inside you will find a terminal for Data Buffer.

A growth and a terminal containing valuable information.

Go through the hatch, through which the enemy came at you, and then go straight ahead until you reach doors. Open them, get inside, close the doors behind you and continue on to the room on the left side. Inside there's a growth (WAU), and a terminal with some information.

And here's another note.

Leave the room using the other doors, and then take a turn to the left, to the right, and yet again to the right - from there go straight ahead to the end of the corridor. Get inside the room, close the doors behind you, turn off the lights and read the note located on the desk, on the left side of the room.

After getting through a couple of additional doors, you will end up in a large room, connected with several doors. To the right from the entrance you will find the growth (WAU), in case the enemy managed to hurt you. There's a couple of things to examine here. Looking from the entrance, go to the room directly in front (the first door on the left), where a body for a Data Buffer can be found.

It's worth to look through the nearby rooms, as there's a lot of things to collect here.

Leave the room, take a turn to the left and enter the first doors on the left side. There's a tablet lying on the cupboard on the right side of the room, a corpse for a Data Buffer, and a photograph lying on the bed.

Click on the rooms to unlock access.

Go to the room with the Dispatch sign above the doors and go to the subsequent room. On the right side there will be a note. Approach the computer, select the "Door Locks" option, and click on the locked rooms to unlock them. One of the rooms will not be unlocked immediately and it will require you to input the password. Get away from the computer, leave the room, and then get back to it. Click on the locked doors again, and the password should appear automatically. Afterwards, a number of additional rooms should be opened, together with the room of "Johan Ross", where a tablet and a note can be found.

When you reach a woman, that gives you the ARK, look around the room - there's also a computer, and a photograph hidden below her chair.

There's a corpse lying on the route, which can be used for Data Buffer.

When you reach a mound of junk, pull a few of them away to uncover a corpse, on which you can perform a Data Buffer.
