Traitor: Difference between revisions

For whatever reason you've decided to sell out the people you live and work with, most likely for personal gain. You will be given a number of dangerous goals by your new [[Syndicate]] employer which you must complete.

Alright, you know your objective!  Time to accomplish that goal!  The Syndicate treats you much better than Centcom. You have 20 Telecrystals built into your PDA itching to be spent on traitory goods. Check [[Syndicate Items]], for a more detailed description on the goods. But don't go racing off to order those items ASAP; people are more clustered in the beginning of rounds and the AI is probably wondering how it switches cameras and the Captain is off huffing paint somewhere.  Although it can be useful to get items early, holding off until you need the item also has merit, so 6 crystals don't get wasted on an emag when you find the captain's spare ID on that assistant you just killed.

If you think you're at the risk of being searched by security, and you don't think you can outrun or outfight them, a good idea is to hide your traitor items in a backpack in one of the personal lockers in the locker room at arrivals or in the dorms northwest of the bar. If the item is small (such as an emag), and you'd rather hold onto it, you can hollow out a book with a pair of wirecutters and place the item inside. To recover it, just click the item in your hand. The object will fall out.

Another good hiding spot for small items is in the cistern of a toilet in the locker room or the dorms. Crowbar the toilet to remove the cistern lid, click the toilet with the item you wish to hide, then crowbar the toilet again to replace the lid. Be warned that this creates a unique sound that can be heard in nearby rooms, so players who hear this and know about the trick may check the toilets to see what loot they can find.

 

You can also hide items in a shitty smuggler's satchel underneath a floor tile, but these only hold four small items and as such are a waste of telecrystals.

Murderboning is no fun. No matter how great it might seem gunning down everyone you see, you've got to remember something. Every human you see walking around is being controlled by a real person. They probably sat down after a hard day doing whatever it is they do and said to themselves “Huh, I want to play Space Station 13. It's a fun game!” You probably did the exact same thing before you logged on. For each little pixel character you shoot in this game of 2D spessmens, you are removing a person – just like you – from doing something they find enjoyable. This is what makes SS13 different from other games. If you die in an FPS, you pop back into existence no different from before you died. In SS13, unless the body is recovered you die permanently. So please, think of who you're killing before you go on a thermal/noslip/esword frenzy.
