Getting to Lesnaya Train Station in Atomic Heart

Atomic Heart is a First Person Shooter in the reins of Bioshock and modern Wolfenstein games. You will be fighting tons of robot enemies to uncover the mystery of the technological unrest in Facility 3826. After exiting an underground facility, you will come upon the first open area of the game.

The road to Lesnaya Station is blocked by a security gate and unlocking it requires interaction with a Volan terminal. It is situated in a tower in the area itself and the quest marker will lead you to it. You will encounter some enemies while pursuing this objective, so dispatch them as fast as you can and scale the tower using the elevator.

Upon interacting with terminal P-3, the game’s protagonist realizes that he is unable to hack the gate's security mechanisms. Granny calls and asks him to visit her and obtain a weapon blueprint. Upon visiting her, a cutscene plays and adds further context to the story.

She resides in a mechanized hut that can move around like a robotic titan and lands next to you within the cutscene. At the end of it, you get the Dominator weapon blueprint. Her house contains a NORA terminal, which helps you to craft this weapon shock pistol.

Exit the house and head back to the tower to interact with the Volan terminal and then click on the northern cameras. All that’s left now is to travel through the unlocked path and follow the quest marker. You can either stop and engage in combat or simply take the vehicle and proceed to Lesnaya Station.

When you reach the station, a conductor will inform you that your ticket has expired. Head to the area behind the conductor and swim through the liquid pool to reach a dead technician beside whom you can find the ticket. Travel back to conclude this mission and ride the train.
