WALKTHROUGH
- Mission 06 - Green Eye Returns
"Head for the abandoned dome facility. Make
your way through the old city ruins inside. A giant
thermal energy signature that could be the Green Eye
is coming from within the structure."
This level will be your first encounter with the heavily
armored Nevec soldiers with plasma guns. Keep in mind
that they will not fall fast to a machine gun, though
that weapon is sometimes the only weapon available.
Some of them may leave behind a plasma gun once defeated,
so make sure to grab it if they do since that will kill
them in two hits.

Run over to the DATA POST (1/3) on the right and activate
it (actually deactivate it then activate it). Grab the
PLASMA GRENADES on the left as you make your way around
the corner. Some Nevec soldiers with plasma guns will
start to fire at you further down the street. Shoot
them from where you are or run toward them and use grenades.
Try to take cover behind any obstacle to shield yourself
from the plasma gun blasts. Grab the MACHINE GUN while
moving down the street and take cover behind the concrete
debris on the left next to the ROCKET LAUNCHER since
there is an enemy GTF-13M VS suit on the balcony above.
Throw a plasma grenade at him then use the rocket launcher
to destroy the VS suit then continue ahead. Get up on
the balcony then shoot the enemy with the rocket launcher
in the back and activate the DATA POST (2/3).

Hop off the side and continue down the street. There
is a turret on top of the first building up ahead and
a few more down the street to the left. Quite a few
of these Nevec soldiers will have rocket launchers or
be in a turret with a rocket launcher so be very careful
while moving along. Get up on the buildings and blast
the turret gunner or shoot the turret with the rocket
launcher to stop them. You can control the turret, but
the view of the area is very limited. There is a ROCKET
LAUNCHER and a VS ROCKET LAUNCHER among the explosive
barrels on the left building with the second turret.
Be sure to stock up on rocket launcher ammo. Grapple
up to the ledge above the second turret and activate
the DATA POST (3/3) up there. There is a pickup of PLASMA
GRENADES and a PLASMA GUN on the left side of the street
as you move further to the end. An enemy Vital Suit
will jump down from above. Hurl plasma grenades at him
to stun him and shoot him with either rockets or the
plasma gun. Walk through the doorway against the right
wall and blast the Nevec soldiers inside. Grapple to
the floor above and drop off the side of the building
after moving down the corridor. Keep walking toward
the VS in the snow and a cutscene will begin.
You can't exit the VS for this portion of the level.
This suit is the PTX-140 VS suit much like the one Wayne
controlled in the prologue mission. It has a saw (X),
hover (jump then A), and a dash (Direction + Y; Y again
to cancel dash). Don't spend too much time in this area
since your thermal energy is draining at an accelerated
rate and you will die immediately if it all drains.
Dash straight ahead and walk under the door as it opens
for you. Grab the GATLING GUN and equip the VS ROCKET
LAUNCHER to one of your sides in place of one of the
gatling guns. Use the dropped gatling gun to fill your
lone gatling gun to the max. Continue down the corridor
ahead and go through the doorway as the door opens.
Another cutscene will play.

At the start of the battle, jump and hover over to
the platform on the right side. This will position you
next to a VS rocket launcher and some tanks that you
can shoot for extra T-ENG. At the moment Green Eye has
four green heat sources on each of his sides for a total
of eight. Hover or dash around the area and target each
one then shoot at the heat sources with either a gatling
gun or fire a rocket at them. Keep a gatling gun and
a rocket launcher on the VS since they both have their
advantages. The rocket launcher has the best distance
and will destroy a heat source if it hits one directly
and the gatling gun will allow you to fire while the
rocket launcher reloads. Make sure to constantly reload
the rocket launcher and pick up more ammo for it. Pick
up the T-ENG that he will drop after each heat source
is destroyed since all of it will come in use for the
constant dashing and hovering you'll be performing.
Green Eye will try to ram your VS from his front side
and back side. He will fire out several ice pieces toward
you and will sometimes cover the ground around him in
ice. He is very dangerous while at close range so make
sure to keep your distance while blasting his heat sources.
His ice attacks can be dodged by moving to the sides
while hovering or dashing - same with his rams. Be sure
to make use of both hovering and dashing since they
will both come in handy. If he ever catches your VS
with his showering ice pieces try to dash to one of
the sides and you might just get away! There is no safe
place during this battle since he has an attack that
will knock you right out of every area that your VS
can possibly go. He will crawl along the side of the
wall if you try to stand on one of the platforms when
he makes a turn. Get behind a wall if his ice attacks
ever get out of control - you will simply have to do
this at some points. Keep in mind that the flying ice
pieces can be shot with the gatling gun. He will also
breathe out ice much like he did in the prologue fight
only this time he will shoot ice pieces in the air along
with the ground ice. This ice will travel along the
floor and form many ice stalagmites as well as fly toward
you in the air. Hiding behind walls will save you from
the flying ice pieces but sometimes not the ground ice
pieces.
Once his first eight heat sources are gone, he will
open up the shell surrounding his head and four more
heat sources on his top front portion will be revealed.
Grab the grenade launcher on the center platform, which
is forward just a bit and to the right of the area where
you first start. With the grenade launcher, stand far
away and wait for him to turn a corner then shoot the
four heat sources on his head with a grenade and the
blast will split and destroy multiple heat sources.
This may take about two shots. He will become very aggressive
at this point with his ice attacks so seek cover behind
a wall if he starts to shower your VS. When all four
of the second batch of heat sources has been destroyed,
a much bigger heat source will appear where the four
smaller heat sources were. Blast the big heat source
on his head a few times to put an end to Green Eye.
He becomes extremely aggressive at this point so I would
recommend grabbing the grenade launcher and a rocket
launcher to guarantee that you kill him with one hit
from each side weapon. Wait for him to turn a corner
then fly directly toward him and fire. Two shots!
