1. Reach pipe access with Joe and Sue

Go out the back of Double Tap, in the alley go down the stairs on the right. Wait a minute for Joe and Sue to come through the door on the right. The objective will show as blue 'completed' in the meantime.

The gate behind the glass is stuck and requires a power source to open. Joe suggests you look around for a battery.

2. Use battery to power generator

There's a green glowing container in front of Joe and Sue. However, when you interact it will only say "Deposit" and doesn't let you do anything. This can be a bit confusing because the waypoint leads here and nowhere else.

If you listened to what Joe said, he wants you to search around the area for a battery. This is not marked at all, it's one of the only objectives in the game where you need to search yourself (not a bug).

Battery Location:

When facing Joe and Sue, turn to the left and go across the bridge that has alien-looking vines around it with green glowing dots.

At the end of the bridge you see a ladder. Don't go up the ladder, instead take the path to the left below the ladder.

It leads over another little bridge with a green container at the end. The battery sticks out of it, grab it. This is only 50 meters away from Joe and Sue.

Then head back to Joe and put the battery in the green-glowing machine.

3. Open pipe hatch

Flip the green switch to the right of where you put the battery.

4. Cross radioactive pit

Now go around the left wall and jump over the gap. Be careful of the radioactive materials in the area - watch your health bar!

5. Shoot weak spots in pipes (x5)

There are 5 spots you must shoot, they will be marked blue when you aim near them:

  • Red-glowing pipe valve on the right of where you landed.
  • Red valve straight above the first one.
  • Jump back one platform from where you came and it's on the big pipe on the side.
  • Directly below the platform you stand on, drop down to see the valve, then climb back up the wall.
  • On the ceiling across from the first one.

6. Continue to cross radioactive pit

Glide to the next waypoint. Try not to fall into the yellow water below as it will quickly drain your health.

7. Open emergency hatch

From where you landed, turn around and go through the green door. Go down the stairs and jump over the gap. Where you land, turn left, drop down to the platform below and jump across to the climbable wall. There you find a button you can press to open the hatch.

8. Reach pipe exit

From the button, glide over to the building at the end of the radioactive pit. Climb up using the grappling points and climbable walls and cross the hanging platforms at the top of the area.
