Complete the Back In The Saddle mission in Once Human. Learn how to fix your HUD, meet Pritchard, and choose your starting weapon.
Walkthrough
- 1After the opening cutscene (a non-interactive cinematic the game plays automatically), your first objective is to fix your glitchy HUD (Heads-Up Display).
- 2Speak with the receptionist, Cindy Martinez, for directions to Pritchard's office, the helipad, Sarif's penthouse, and your own office.
- 3You can find Frank Pritchard in the security tech lab. Before heading there, consider speaking with employees on the ground floor about yourself and eavesdropping on a woman in the women's restroom for background information.
- 4Head up the stairs and enter the Technology Lab to meet Frank Pritchard. You can choose to ignore or confront him; confronting him provides more details about Jensen.
- 5On Pritchard's desk, you can find the first [HUGH DARROW EBOOK] titled 'The Nature of Neuroplasticity'. There are 29 ebooks in total, each worth 200 XP.
- 6Collect the [CYBERBOOST PROENERGY BAR] from his desk and [91 CREDIT CHIPS] from his bench.
- 7Head to the far side of the second floor and go through the double doors. Turn left to reach the helipad where Faridah Malik is waiting.
- 8Board the helicopter to receive a debrief from David.
- 9You will be given a choice between a lethal or non-lethal approach and a short-range or distant combat style. These choices determine the weapon you receive:
- Nonlethal + Short-range: [Stun Gun]
- 10Nonlethal + Long range: [Tranquilizer Rifle] + [9 Tranquilizer Darts]
- 11Lethal + Short-range: [Revolver]
- 12Lethal + Long range: [Combat Rifle] + [20 Combat Rifle Ammo]
- 13Your standard equipment may also depend on any DLC (Downloadable Content) and pre-order bonuses.
Tips
- You have a limited time to explore. After 7.5 minutes, David will urge you to hurry. After 15 minutes, he will inform you of an irreversible negative event that has consequences for rewards.
- The Tranquilizer Rifle is a silenced weapon, ideal for stealthy, nonlethal takedowns, and is rare and expensive.
- Finding all 29 [HUGH DARROW EBOOK]s grants an achievement/trophy and a total of 5800 XP.
