There are 4 gongs that light up the orbs, so maybe everyone has to hit them at the same time for step 9?

I never tried it personally, but people said it didn't work

Where are all of the places where the fuse will spawn, and does it spawn off of the bat, or do you have to turn the power on first?

When you start the game, the loading screen has a picture of a plant in the top right, and it looks like a golden rod... I think were on to something here.

haha, good thinking man

well, now thinking about it, it could be a plant, because when you load going into the map, there is a plant on the loading screen (upper right)

ya, i saw that, inside the frozen wall. I tried shooting it with my pack-a-punch hk, but that didn't do anything. Maybe with one of the new guns

there is a number, i think 3008.242, on the panel where you put the fuse in
or try 9616
96 being the number where he stopped counting 99 bottles, and 16 being the atomic mass of water

he said it looked like a golden rod

lol, i suggested it before, but didn't try it yet.

there are 4 disks in the ground that emit sound, and each number on the dial emits a sound, maybe you have to align the sounds to a number to get the "password"
