Dead Island: Riptide Walkthrough Part 45 – Firefight (Militarized Zone: Inside the Command Center)

Once inside the building be ready to fight. There might have been a lot outside but there are still zombies inside the building itself. Head on forward through the metal detector then go to the right in the next room. Go to the end of it then turn to the right. You will see an open doorway leading into a stairwell. Go through the door and down the stairs on the right. That will get you down into the basement itself. Head straight to the back then over to the left. Be careful as there is a Thug nearby that will attack you given the chance. Head over the fallen portion of the fencing and take out the Walker there. Throw the power switch and for once everything will start up like it should.

Head on out of the basement and up to the top floor of the building. Head down the corridor and go through the door straight in front of you. Kill the pair of Walkers inside the room and then go into the room on the left. As you enter the next room the door in front of you will literally explode open. A zombie burns as the Survivor and Hardy talk. He explains the sprinkler controls are just across from the conference room. Turn to the left in this room and open the door there.

Inside this room you have a Mutated Scientist initially. Kill him off quickly then get onto either of the couches in the front left corner, just to the side of the door you came through. If you are using guns it will let you easily kill the pair of Walkers and Thug who come into this room seeking you. Otherwise just grab a good group weapon and go to town on them. Move into the next room carefully. There is an Infected that will rush up behind you from the adjoining room and a few Walkers coming at you through the fire. Head into that room and turn to the left. You will find the controls for the extinguisher system in that room. There is a pair of Walkers in there so be careful and kill them quickly. Throw the switch to put out the fire.

Follow the mini-map trail back to the doorway that was formerly blocked by fire. Head on through and go over to the left. You can see the communications room to the right and the boss Infected that is in there but you cannot fight him very well from this corridor. He can kill you before you can kill him. Head to the door at the far end of the corridor and go through it. The room you find yourself in is fairly peaceful. There is a body on a pushed down door but nothing else. Go across the room to the intact glass door and you will see 4 Walkers on the other side. Open it up carefully and take care of them quickly. Move into the room and close the door behind you. An Infected likes to rush you from behind and try to take you down that way. The door will block him and make it easier for you to handle it. Head to the North and into the next room after all that.

Turn to the East and start toward the end of the trail. You will be rushed by 2 more Infected at least as you make your way there through the numerous doors. After the final set of doors you will find Meat Thrower. He is the boss here and is a very tough Grenadier. If you can, engage him from the doorway and just throw Grenades and other explosives at him to kill him.

After you take down Meat Thrower head over to the left-hand side of the room. There you will find the blueprint for Rifle Ammo. Be sure to search the desks to the left of the door on the far side you will find the next Secret File sitting on one of them. When you get that head to the front of the room and interact with the communications console. This will trigger a cutscene that ends the chapter and the mission.
