Rude Awakening

Something's not right. You have to go back to the Centaur. The problem is some monsters will start to come out of the containers.

While passing through the 3 container-filled rooms don't rush. Always try to have a wall behind you and eliminate the enemies as they approach. Running away isn't a good idea, because you will have to stop them either way to open the gate. So if you don't get rid of them all, they will kill you while you try to open it.

At the end of the second room you will find some additional ammo. When you will be sure there are no more enemies around, open the gate together with Dom.

Shut down the system and proceed. On your way you will have to fight some Locusts with flamethrowers. Try to shoot the containers on their backs.

In the round room don't fight the Locust, but hide behind a cover and wait. When the enemies will be under the glass dome it will fall down and they will be cut to pieces by the falling razorhail. You should definitely avoid the razorhail and under no circumstances leave the covered area. After crossing the room with the dome you will find yourself outside. Dom will run left and you quickly run to the building on the right.

At its end lies the Doctor's Journal: Dr. Stephanie Zimmer. Take it and then follow Dom.

Run into the wagon and release the brake. The train will start to move along the rails. During the ride Locust will attack from one side, but just hide and don't lean out and you'll safely arrive at the destination.

When the wagon stops, get off and follow Dom while killing the enemies, till you reach a demolished building. Kill the two Locusts inside.

Open the gates one after another to form a roof and pass under it. When Dom enters the wagon again don't follow him, but go along the roof.

When the roof ends, run through the opened door in the building straight ahead. Approach the wall and look at the Captivity Marks. Now go back to the wagon.

Release the break once again. This time the enemies will be shooting from both sides. When you shoot, concentrate on the Boomers. When the train stops get off, go to the beginning and take the ladder up.

Locust will start to appear from the holes. Don't hurry and eliminate them from distance. Only when you eliminate all of them run to the next shelter. Near the end some Maulers will appear. They hide behind a heavy shield and they wield an explosive morgenstern. Shoot them when they use their shields to protect from the razorhail. If they hide behind the shield, shot their legs. Try not to approach them. After killing them you will be able to use the shields yourself, hiding behind them while approaching the enemy,

Once the razorhail stops falling, run to the Centaur while eliminating the Locust.

The razorhail damaged the tank, and it needs some attention now. Defend Baird while he repairs the Centaur.
