Audio Logs

Audio Log object

Audio Logs are collectable items in Red Faction: Armageddon that provide lore surrounding both the current story and the past events that lead up to this point. In-game, these logs are easily identifiable by their blue beam of light that expands as it gets closer to the audio object, highlighted by the spherical visual effect at the top. The player must use the "use" key when close to one to listen to the device in game.

Once listened to, these audio logs are unlocked as audio snippets in the games "Extras" menu from the main menu, allowing you to listen to them again at your leisure.

Collecting these Audio logs will complete the Chronicler achievement.

Armageddon

Audio Log 06 Last day in uniform tomorrow. Don't know how I feel about that. The Red Faction is all I've known my whole life... but I made a promise to Marie. She worries to much. Should be slow tomorrow. Just a routine patrol around the Terraformer and then I'm officially retired. Guide This log is at the start of the level - Before you destroy the Last shield protector tower after picking up the Plasma Cannon - Go to the right away from the shielded exit, and the log is beside one of the defensive barriers.

Audio Log 21 Jason Paul, ID number 6-0-0-4-5. Evening report. Nothing. As usual, Sectors 1 through 36 are quiet and humming along. I swear I could take a four-hour nap and nobody would notice. Shoulda went into mining. Nothing exciting ever happens here. Guide Immediately after the cutscene where the drop ship is destroyed, There is a building on the right with enemies you have to kill, to the right side of the building, there's a path that leads around the back, right here is the log.

The Terraformer

Audio Log 22 David? David, are you at your station? We are at a Code blue. Nelson is dead. I found him in his office. He... somebody shot him? We have a breach. We need to- shit...I think I heard something. Oh god. Somebody's in here... Guide After going up the first set of ramps that spiral, you'll enter a corridor with 2 Cultists, the log is sitting in the doorway to your right.

Audio Log 23 Donnie, somebody screwed our order. We needed a C5 Exo suit. The Loader unit...not a damn SHIVA. How does something like this even happen? We need to stack coolant not blow it up. Get it out of here before someone gets drunk and takes it for a joyride. Guide After repairing the turbines and stopping the Cultists from destroying the room, you go up a ladder and to another set of spiralling ramps. When you get to the top there is a Cultist Officer - behind him on route to the next area is the audio log.

Audio Log 23 They call us terrorists Fanatics. Us? It wasn't us that drove us from our homes. Into exile... They hate us. Fear us. Why? Because they are jealous. They are scared. They know who we are. They know we are the true Masters of Mars, and because of this they must destroy us. Destroy our very way of life... My Children, we are not the outcasts. We are the chosen. And we will be triumphant. Guide Acquired by playing through the level.

We're Not Alone

Audio Log 20 Ultor recon squad...Day forty...something. Seven? We lost Gomez last night. That's six now. Another night like this and we'll have a mutiny on our hands. I don't give a shit about scientific discovery anymore, I care about getting the hell out alive. We shouldn't be here. But try telling that to Capek... Guide After you slow down to talk to S.A.M as she tries to detect what the moving objects are, theres a drop to your left, right down there is the audio log beside 2 salvage pick ups.

Audio Log 24 Supplies are running low. We have enough food to last two...maybe three days. Orders are to hold this position until the Marauder reinforcements arrive...We'll never last that long. Guide Just before the end of the level, you will pass a building with a ramp leading in to it, just in front of the ramp as you path forwards is the log.

Outbreak

Audio Log 02 God damnit. Someone's been messing with my coms again. I can't raise Bastion, can't raise Station 2...Can't get anything! I bet it was Whiteside. I saw him heading out to the relay station a few hours ago. Haven't seen him since though. Guide Just after the start of the level after heading up some stairs, there's a tunnel entrance to the right with fire burning inside, the audio log is just at the entrance of the tunnel.

Audio Log 08 Hey Timmy, it's pops. Just wanted to say happy birthday. Sorry I can't be there today...General's got us out on a... well...Top secret mission. I'll be back in a couple of weeks. Heck, maybe before you even get this...See you soon.. Guide After making contact with the Red Faction via radio you go through a tunnel where aliens and the first Monolith shows up. On the left of the Monolith the audio log is sitting by some rocks and ammo.

Road To Bastion

Audio Log 36 that's three days in a row the goddamn Marauder whore has been slinging her trash in Bastion...I've told every god-damn official from here to Refuge about her, but they don't do anything! Well, if they don't do something about it I will...Things are bad enough in Bastion as it is. Guide As the level starts, turn around, the log is beside a colonist civilian up behind the Emergency Transport Vehicle.

Audio Log 11 Malone- I'm going to need you to haul up the excavator. The tunnel at Carver Centre collapsed. I have no idea how. I better call in Timmy's shift to help us. We'll need everybody to get this road opened back up. Guide After destroying the infected buildings, before starting the Excavator autoscroll segment, if you follow the road around past the excavator you will see the log to the left of the vehicle, nearby to an upgrade station.
