The game "One of Us" was a huge breakthrough in the gaming industry. The vast majority of positive reviews perfectly characterize this game. But what distinguishes it from other similar projects? After all, the game did not offer users anything fundamentally new: the apocalyptic plot is trivial, and the gameplay comes down to ordinary skirmishes and the destruction of monsters. But this is not for us to decide. Now we are beginning to describe the passage of the game "One of Us" in Russian for those who are not able to purchase a console for the sake of one game, and those who have not been able to master an independent path through the dead world.
Prologue
The game starts corny. We are presented with an ordinary average family. Playing as a daughter (Sarah), carefully inspect the house. Read the postcard by the TV, the newspaper on the table and watch the report, and then out the window. After that, go to your father’s office and watch the video.
Now you control your father (Joel). Once in Tommy’s car, you are heading out of town, but have an accident. Take your daughter in your arms and follow your brother. By his decree, turn into the lane, and through it head to the bar. Tommy will remain to detain the infected, and you go through the back door further. Run into the alley illuminated by a lantern, and then without stopping we run along the path. At this moment, you will have a fateful meeting ...
Part 1-3
Finally, we begin to play for real. The main plot of the game begins 20 years after the death of Sarah (wow, our character is almost 50).
Passage "One of us" - part 1: "Quarantine zone".
No problems should arise at this stage. Follow our partner Tess. We are faced with the task - to find a certain Robert who is preventing us from doing business. Climbing the stairs near the white car, we get into the building. On the ground floor, everything is filled with disputes, and our character will put on a gas mask. In the room, turn right and climb into the opening in the wall. Along the way, do not forget to check the body for the presence of cartridges. We make a control shot in the head. We move on. Sneak up on the first of the infected and strangle him. We leave the remaining ones by turning off the flashlight first. We get out.
The second part is not particularly different. You find yourself in the market and find out that Robert is hiding in the shipyard at the docks. We run, shoot, fight. Save ammo whenever possible. In order to pass the gate, we plant Tess at the left wall. Another slaughter. We are moving along the warehouse. Kill enemies stealthily. The close room is suitable for this as well as possible. We find Robert. First, he will shoot back, and then try to escape. After a series of dialogs, we again have to follow our companion. At the bridge, turn left. Now we rise and enter the building on the left. Bypassing the enemy, we choke. We pass the corridor all the way to the last room and there we get out through the extreme window. After killing the enemies, we go down under the bridge.
And here is the next part. We learn that the smuggling that needs to be delivered to the Capitol is the little girl Ellie. While we work alone, we must be careful. We leave the building and go left to the fence. Along it, then right into the alley. We move the trash can and climb up to the apartment. Here we wait Tess. After that we leave through a gap in the wall. We go in a straight line, they won’t let us get lost. We start the generator (the slider at the bottom of the scale). We go further and repel the attack. After scanning, it turns out that Ally has been infected for 3 weeks.
Part 4
After such a "sudden" turn of the plot, the passage of "One of Us" begins to become more complicated. To get to the place we need, you have to go through the "detachments". Follow Tess to the nearest patrol. Then we shift to the left and begin to move along the wall, not forgetting to follow the lights at the top. We move through the shelters until the next collision with the enemy in the building. When he turns away, we neutralize. Crossing from cover to cover, do not forget to bend down. Extra hassles we do not need. We get to the lattice and break it out.
Follow Tess again. This is already so familiar that difficulties should not be. In general, the passage of "One of Us" is more like a short story. You involuntarily follow a linear plot, and do not create it yourself. After a collision with a nutcracker in a room with a bunch of doors, we spend knives with a clear conscience. All of them will pay off. As you progress, do not forget to help your partner. After she distracts the nutcracker, throw the bottle in the opposite direction.
Having picked up a revolver and a piece of pipe, we begin to kill. We creep up behind all the enemies and cut it down. Having got out, we are looking for a truck. Near it we turn left into the next building. We kill opponents and drag the chest of drawers to the truck. After some simple actions, we again run inside. At the workbench, do not forget to modify the weapon. Move on. We kill the runner with a Molotov cocktail, at the same time a nutcracker will come running, which will also burn. We run further, fighting off the enemies. We go out to the roof and take the board, which we put between the buildings. Having reached the Capitol, we find out that the connected man is dead. Tess is infected and remains to cover us. Joel and Ellie go to Bill to get a car from him and get to Tommy.
We go outside, go down to the subway, hiding from the machine gun. We pass through the cars. To cross further, we go swimming. We find the raft and transport Ellie.
Part 5-7
After talking with our ward, we hit the road again. Passage "One of us" is transferred to the wild. Moving through the forest, we exit to the tower. To climb over the wall, we find a small shed, drag the board onto it and throw it onto the wall. We go further along the road. In the lane on the left, a nutcracker runs out to meet us, but it explodes on a trap. We climb the stairs to the truck, from it to the next fire escape, not forgetting to take the board with us. We lay it between the buildings. After we go down again, we move carefully, crawling under the stretch marks. Move on. When you fall into the trap, ammo can not be saved. After some time, help will arrive in the form of a Bill.
Part 6 is fully dedicated to the search for auto parts. We run after Bill, while not forgetting to search the area. We get to school. Here we use the scorched earth tactics. We throw the bottles, and when the infected people gather in the crowd, we burn them with the “hammer”. In the battle with the boss, the first thing we take out is a trifle - runners.
The seventh part is very short. When we get out of school, we get to the shelter of Frank, Bill's partner. We find him hanged, but there is a car with a charged battery. We push the car out, fighting off enemies along the way. We say goodbye to Bill and "leave for sunset."
Part 8-10
Our heroes manage to spend most of the way in the car, however, before reaching the city, we are faced with a problem - a huge traffic jam on the highway. The hero turns right and is ambushed by bandits. After we kill them all, we get out. Hiding behind the cars, we go around the hunters. We pass the checkpoint through the bus. If you do not want to get involved in another slaughter, passing the game “One of Us” (updated version) will allow you to hide in the building on the right, otherwise you will first have to clean the street, and then the building by floors. In the flooded area, again alone we get to the raft and transport Ellie to the bus. From there we get to the cafe, and there, using the board, we move to the hotel.
One of the most difficult parts that the One of Us walkthrough will give us is the Hotel. Search the location. We move the stairs to the wall above which there is no railing. On the right you will find the code for the safe from the first floor. We rise to the second floor, from there we get out the window into the neighboring building. After that we rise higher and higher. We open the elevator. Ellie climbs up, and you fall into the water. The location is empty. To open the door, look for the pass and start the generator.
This passage "One of us" ("Hotel") does not end there. We reach the kitchen along a straight corridor. We install a ladder near the right wall and climb up. They will throw us from there. After a short fight, Ellie will arrive and commit the first murder in his life. We rise, we reach the restaurant. There we push the piano and climb up again. Then Joel finally listens to the voice of reason and hands Ally a rifle. To destroy all the enemies outside, we try to lure them into the open space under the shelling of Ellie. The ammo of the girl is endless, unlike the player.
Parts 11-13
We move through the city, killing hunters along the way. Survivors who rioted in the city were able to acquire a jeep with an automatic turret. Now we have to hide from him. In one of the buildings we find another group of "refugees" - this is Henry and Sam. We follow Henry in their shelter, simultaneously firing off from the mutants and hiding from the turret. To get out of the city, we will have to attack the checkpoint at night, when there will be fewer guards.
Passage of the game "One of Us" (part 12) will begin with the fact that you and Henry remove the first two guards. You get the one on the left. After that, hiding from the spotlight, we follow to the generator, kill the guard and turn off the power. In complete darkness, we kill those who come down to us. After that, open the gate. We seat all three upstairs, but the stairs break. Henry and Sam leave us, and Ellie comes down. We go into the building and clean it from enemies. We run straight and get into a dead end. We jump into the water.
What will present us with the passage of the game "One of Us" (part 13)? And it is preparing for us another meeting with Henry and Sam, when our hero will swim out of the river to the shore. Joel regrets and does not kill Henry who betrayed them. And not in vain. Heroes find their way through the sewers. At the fork, we go first to the right. We return to the "friends". In the zone with water, we swim to the far end and repair the jammed mechanism. Henry opens the gate, and we, having reached the end, throw off the raft and deliver Ellie to us, who is repairing the generator. Henry arrives with his brother and helps us climb up.
Sniper
So you can name the passage of the game "One of Us" (part 14). Once out of the sewer, we fall into the trap. The group is divided. Playing as Joel, we fight off the enemies and get to the rest. Follow Henry.
Having reached one of the streets, we find out that it is controlled by a sniper. We go on the left side. Here you can meet hunters, but it will be more difficult for a sniper to get there. Having reached the building, we kill the sniper and pick up the rifle. With her help, we help our group. When the already known armored car arrives, we kill the person who will throw Molotov cocktails. We wait a little more and see that infected people are running away to the noise from the explosion. We shoot them and leave.
Next is another series of dialogs and screensavers. Sam is infected, and Henry makes a difficult decision to kill his brother, after which he commits suicide.
Part 15-16
Here one could write: "after some time." Passage of the game "One of Us" (part 15) takes place at a hydroelectric power station. Autumn is in the yard, and our heroes continue to search for Tommy. Near the car we find a good gun with optics. Through dialogs, we learn some of the features of the relationship between Tommy and Joel. At the dam we rotate the valve, due to which one of the wings opens. We dive under the water and free the raft for Ellie, we move on. And finally, we get to the gates of the factory, where we meet Tommy. We are waiting for a series of conversations, and then fraternal "reconciliation", during which we save Ellie and his brother's wife from the bandits. But not so simple.
Instead of going to the Cicadas with Tommy, Ellie runs off on a horse, and the brothers set off on her trail. Once in an ambush, we deal with the bandits and go to the horses. We jump on them to the ranch in which Ally is hiding on the second floor. After the dialogue, we fight off the bandits and without Tommy we go to the Cicadus laboratory. On this, you can complete the passage of the game "One of Us" (part 16).
"University"
Another unpleasant moment during the game. Passage of the game "One of Us" (part 17) refers to the University of Colorado. It is with him that many players often have questions. On the territory we move to the center, and from there we climb the stairs, gradually dodging to the left. Having passed along the corridor, we knock out the grate. We crawl into the room in which we find a flamethrower and an electrical panel. It shows that the generator should be on the second floor. We go up, turn on the generator and return. Having opened the gate, we run to the center of the territory and turn left. There, running around the building, we find another locked gate. Passing "One of Us" ("University") implies that you must enter the building on the right. There you go up to the second floor, go outside and on the back of the gate you push the generator to the wire. Turn it on. The path is clear.
We turn into the arch to the left, then to the right and jump over the fence. Near the laboratory at the main entrance we see a garbage container. With it, you can break through the gate and get inside. We inspect the empty building and find two audio recordings, one of them says that everyone returned to Salt Lake City. Then the unknown appear and open fire on us. We run away in the same way that we came. But Joel breaks off the ledge and falls down. A protruding pin pierces it through and through, and the passage "One of Us" ("University") ends.
Part 18-19
Winter came. Passing "One of Us" (updated version) will make you play for Ally. You hunt animals in the forest with onions. First, kill the hare, and then begin to chase the deer. Stay away from him. After two accurate hits, he will begin to move away from you. Follow him and he will lead you to the huts where you meet David and James. They suggest exchanging deer carcass for antibiotics. James leaves for medicine, and David stays with us. At this point, the mutants attack. Hiding in the building, we barricade the windows and shoot back from the monsters. After some time you will have to escape. Follow David. After moving to another part of the building, you will come across the same picture: survive by firing off monsters. We will immediately find out the story of David. It turns out that because of his people, Joel fell into this position. After the last monster, James will arrive and give us the medicine. But not so simple. As soon as Ellie gets to Joel and injects him with drugs, the bandits return. Sit on a horse and jump away to distract attention. When the horse is killed, go around the hill and go through the house. It is better to eliminate opponents with a bow. Get down to the pier, then move along the pipes forward. We get to the next building, after a short shootout we will be seized, and control will return to Joel.
We get up and leave the house. When the gates open, kill three bandits, the rest will run away. We overtake them and straighten out. After that we interrogate the survivors. The next morning, we play for Ally again: after a few dialogs, we will be able to escape. Going around the enemies, we move along a previously known path (the game is linear). In the next room (cafe) we are overtaken by David. The battle begins. Your task - crawling on his haunches, to sneak up to him from the back and beat with a knife. The main thing is to avoid areas with broken dishes. After 2-3 hits, control will go to Joel. Walking quietly around the enemies and taking off the excess with the bow, we get to the building where we find Ellie's backpack. We go outside and see a burning building. By the time we get to the girl, she will already beat the leader.
Spring
The next change of season marks the transition to the next part of the game. We move along the freeway, and then deja vu overtakes us. Due to the traffic jam, we turn right and reach the empty quarantine zone. We climb through the gate and try to climb into the building on the left. Then follow Ally. In the end, in the tunnel we encounter a large number of infected people. After you kill everyone, move to the other side and help Ellie climb. Then swim again. We continue on the right side to the closed door. Again we climb higher, first sitting down Ellie. In the next water zone we dive under the water, and at the fork turn right. We climb through the ventilation pipes and move to the very end. We’ll find a raft there.
Moving the girl through the pond, we climb the stairs. We pick it up and set it against the opposite wall. We climb and raise the stairs to ourselves. We climb even higher. Finally, again we tighten the ladder and put it on top of the failure. We begin to jump in the wagons. When you get stuck, Ellie will try to pull you out, but nothing will come of her. Having got out of the flooded transport, we sail to the surface. There, people from Cicada are already waiting for us and stun us.
the end
When you come to, you will have a long conversation with Marlene. She will tell you that to make a vaccine for the virus, you need Ellie to die during surgery. Naturally, the future of humanity is not worth the life of one little girl, and we go to save her. Joel finds out from the guard where the operation is performed and kills him. After that, we have to pathosly break through the crowds of enemies in the western part of the hospital and save Ellie at the last moment. We carry it in our arms to the elevator. Marlin makes the last unsuccessful attempt to stop us.
This concludes the conscious passage of "One of Us." Final - you play as Ally and obediently follow Joel, telling about your past. The final video. The curtain is closing.
Addition
After some time, an addition to the game "One of Us" was released. It narrated about two time intervals in Ally's life. Passing "One of Us: Left Behind" is not so difficult. In one gap, you have to find out the fate of the relationship between Ally and her friend, and most of the time you will spend in the shopping center. The second story tells us how Ellie looked for antibiotics in the same center for injured Joel. You will face both ordinary fights with already familiar opponents, as well as tactical combinations, as a result of which you will set mutants against bandits. Thus, the passage "One of us: Left behind" does not need a detailed description. The additional 3 hours of the game is not designed to make players break their heads, but to expand the main storyline of the original game.
