The screen flickers. The image of what looks like a warehouse appears on the display screen, with a MkI steel worker AKA "Fireman" model in clear view, sporting a flame pattern on its chest and arm cannons. It quickly becomes apparent that the file is a video file. The MkI steel worker begins to talk, rubbing his forehead in what appears to be frustration.
"Video log 31335, Date 05/12/20XX.
The obnoxious sound and sight of Atomic fire charging is getting on my last nerve. A few of the new comers have not yet understood that Atomic fire is like a very obnoxious air horn going off, drawing everything that hasn't ceased functions attention to you. I fear this location will not be safe within the hour.
I've learned a few new things in my travels with the other survivors.
Screw crusher is an excellent weapon to use in stair cases and on the run. The bouncing pattern it follows makes it very hard to dodge when going down a stair case.
Search snakes, I've discovered, are a fantastic weapon to use in places where the terrain is rugged and aiming with weapons such as Metal blades or Ballade cracker is difficult. Since the snakes travel a straight path until they hit a ceiling, it makes for a fantastic weapon to use on Stoneman's, Snakeman's, Elecman's and other stages where the terrain would be rugged.
Pharaoh shot is a weapon that I've found is quite useful against clusters of infected and to use on the run. Because of its area of effect damage, it is a hard weapon for an infected to successfully dodge. Its damage is quite respectable and its ammo consumption is quite low for such a strong weapon. In a pinch, it can also be used to keep infected away from you, since it does damage even as its floating above your head charging but it is not a reliable replacement to Star crash or Fire storm.
Thunder beam can pass through multiple targets and spreads in three directions. I recommend this weapon in close quarters and or against large groups of infected.
And lastly, I've discovered that Crystal eye makes for a fantastic weapon to use in close quarters, due to its spread of smaller crystals after the main crystal strikes something.
I hope this information proves of any use to those who find this video file."
Shouting is heard and the Fireman turns around quickly and looks behind him. His color scheme changes to bright red, a clear indication that fire storm has been equipped. He then turns back to the camera.
"Looks like we've been found. I hate being on the run so much... When will this madness end?

The display screen goes black, then returns back to displaying static.
