Start with collecting precious items (you'll find them in the chests on the left and near dead soldier's bodies). When you are ready for the action, you can sit behind the steers of the robot, standing nearby (#99).
Locate the Dispersal Facility
The mech is more difficult in navigation than the Hovertank. He moves slowly and don't reacts immediately. The mech has also weaker armor - you'll notice it quickly during the fight with the same enemies as few levels earlier. The robot is armed with machine gun (infinite ammunition, no reloading) and rockets launcher. This weapon is significantly weaker from the cannon in the tank and you'll have to load rockets after six launched missiles. During the fight you'll mainly use machine gun (it is significantly more effective). Remember to renew armor and shield after every fight.
After a few seconds of the march, first enemies will show up already. Infantry will attack you from the right side, there will be group of Hornets in the air too. Get rid of the threat and go under the bridge towards the tunnel. You don't have to worry about the way - only one route is leading to the factory (your destination target).
In the tunnel maneuver between obstacles and get rid of enemies. After short walk, you'll find yourself on the surface again - turrets falling off the sky will join your opponents. All the time go straight ahead and systematically eliminate enemies. When you'll pass the second tunnel, shoot at bombing aircraft (#100 - machine gun should be enough). Move until you'll notice small fault of the area in (#101). Save the game and jump down.
Harvester will show up nearby (#102), temporarily being blocked out by base construction's elements. Use machine gun to destroy Harvester's rockets and immediately concentrate fire on the top part of the robot. Hit him also with rockets, but return to ordinary bullets, while reloading missiles. When Harvester will stand with you face to face, he should be near death already. Continue the work of destruction until he won't fall finally.
Safe and sound, approach the main complex’s building (#103). Jump out from the mech and now move on foot. After short walk, you'll see the hatch (#104) leading to the next stage.

comments and responses
| I saw the Mech at the beginning of the level. I never got on it because I thought it was a dead piece of junk. I fought on foot all the way to the Harvester. By then, I was already low on ammo, low on health, and no armor. I tried to turn on the cheat code by pressing ~, Ctrl, and Alt alone and in any combination, but it didn't work. So I tried to outrun the Harvester, but was dead before I knew it. Once they saw you, those guided missiles really followed you good. Did any of you manage to finish the level without the Mech?
By the way, how did you get on the Mech anyway? I understand some of you had a hard time getting off.
| tornadoman 17/07/2007 20:39 | | Dudes, the harvesters are some of the easiest things to kill. All you have to do on this level, is toddle on in and shoot its ass until he notices you, then wait for the bitch to stand up then blast the joint on its legs..... it goes down a lot faster this way.
Also, is the guy who wrote this guide english?
Some of it just doesn't make logical sense. | mack 01/01/2007 17:21 | | that harvester was a damn bitch | Fr0ss 18/12/2006 23:11 | | By the way... <space bar> or what ever you use for JUMP is how you exit mech. (when not locked) | Erik 13/12/2006 20:58 | | It clearly takes upwards of one hundred rockets to kill the harvester (unless you get his legs). I go down under the yellow pipes. I use this as cover for the incoming rockets. Then before he completely walks arround to my left (where I just came from), I continue to the right, moving arround behind him. At this point he seems stuck. He is basically tryng to turn arround to face me so he can shoot, but he can't turn. So I sit there and shoot missles at him for a while untill he dies. Try to get him stuck like this, It's not that hard and it can be done every time. Just hard to find the right location and survive under the pipe long enought to do it. | Erik 13/12/2006 20:56 | | Check this out, to kill the Harvesters, just aim for the little red patch on their legs down at the knee joint and the leg will blow off. Once you get two legs, the harvester collapses and explodes. You can take them out fast and easy with just the machine gun. | Shark 01/12/2006 09:16 | | i wode like a walk thru on quake 4 | broocatt52 22/10/2006 02:04 | | to get out of the mech hit the button on ur keyboard that is assigned to 'jump' | Colonel Hell 24/08/2006 23:13 | | I used "noclip" cheat, there is no alternative path, all doors are blind. My previous question is answered. | ifo 01/08/2006 12:37 | | Is there some alternative path thru Construction zone ? I can see doors on upper floor (on the left side, before enter to green poisoned tunnel) and it seems to be another path thru whole zone. Also, i found many closed doors, that are never opened. Is it just a designer's joke to make me sleepless nights ? | ifo 31/07/2006 13:47 | | How to kill the harvester: don't go to open space, stay at the beginning. There is one place, from where you can see top of the harvester, but he doesn't see you. Just fire with rockets and he will die soon. | ifo 31/07/2006 13:19 | | For me the harvester becomes a nil threat, after a while he stopped shooting at me completely and just stood there, and no matter how much I rattle off with the machine gun the harvester just wont die, plus im trying to jump out the mech to go under the overhead gantry (displayed in 103) but I cant get out the mech! | Spadge_2356 30/07/2006 23:09 | | Alt + ~ and will open the console. type GOD and there you go...
But the game s not fun like that | webby 22/05/2006 15:59 | | It says the Mech is locked. How do I unlock it? | bd 20/05/2006 17:52 | | How do get out of the Mech. | bd 20/05/2006 17:49 | |
