Star Wars Outlaws was just released officially a while ago. A data spike in this game is used to pick locks and open doors.
In this game, lockpicking has a bit different mechanic. To pick a lock, you watch a circle on the screen and press the button (click) in time with the flashes. Seems a little complex right? Let me explain in detail in this article.
How To Lockpick in Star Wars Outlaws
As I mentioned above, the data spike is a tool that is used to hack locked doors. To use the data spike, you need to click in time with a rhythm. If you screw up, you have to start the whole thing over.
Find a locked door that has a panel next to it. Use your data spike on the panel. A mini-game-type puzzle will show up.
Look at the yellow light and listen to the sounds, then close your eyes and try to click along to the same beat.
The game also has a visual helper that you can turn on if you’re having trouble hearing the sounds. This will show a ring on your screen that flashes in time with the rhythm.
You can also change the difficulty to easy or hard. With the easy difficulty, you will hear more sounds more accurately.
You can disable the lockpicking rhythm challenge entirely in the game settings.
If you turn off the lockpicking rhythm challenge entirely, you can simply click two or three times and the door will open. You will still do the mini-game, but you won’t have to match a rhythm.
Final Words
The difficulty of the patterns increases as the game progresses. So, if you are having a hard time from the start, just change the difficulty.
