Syndicate Uplink

From Space Station 14 Wiki
Revision as of 07:19, 1 December 2023 by Prophet Crow (talk | contribs) (→‎Ammo)

To help them achieve their objectives, some antagonists including traitors and nuclear operatives have access to an uplink from which they can purchase all sorts of illegal goodies from The Syndicate. For traitors, the uplink is accessible through their PDA. Some items are only available when playing certain jobs.

Strategy

  • Buying from the uplink makes a "cha-ching" sound. Contrary to belief, this sound is not audible to nearby players.
  • Since traitors only start with 20 TC, they must neutralize collaborate with other agents in order to purchase high-value uplink items, or must be wise with their budget.
  • Purchase what you need only when you need it. Security can search you and certainly find a weapon or grenade your bag.
  • Keep your PDA locked when you don’t need it. You can unlock it by setting the ringtone to the code you are assigned when you first roll traitor.
