Playing for A Matter of Time

Bring two players and working microphones for A Matter of Time. Once the facility splits you, the walkie-talkies carry what the other Explorer can see, and A Matter of Time completes only when the pair actually does this: Arrived at the Temporal Research Centre.

The achievement beside A Matter of Time is Knowledge Transfer. Treat it as a nearby task while you chase A Matter of Time, not as a percent you are required to match.

A Matter of Time is more common than rank 22. If you are stuck, read “Arrived at the Temporal Research Centre” exactly before you assume a later puzzle is required.

On a later session, say “Arrived at the Temporal Research Centre” when you expect A Matter of Time to pop. 5.7 percent of players already have A Matter of Time. That share is a familiarity clue, not a clock.

Brief your partner with the full line “Arrived at the Temporal Research Centre” for A Matter of Time, punctuation included. A shorter paraphrase drops the condition that separates A Matter of Time from the achievements beside it.

A Matter of Time is tied to Temporal Research Centre. It does not ask for a dedicated tool. If an overlay shortens the icon, the Steam id AMatterOfTime still means A Matter of Time.

At rank 21 and 5.7 percent, A Matter of Time sits in the late expedition. Use that share of players as a familiarity clue for A Matter of Time, not as a timer and not as a required order.

A Matter of Time is a different task from Recon & Disclose. That other unlock is “Arrived on the second floor of R&D Headquarters” at 17.5 percent. Stay on “Arrived at the Temporal Research Centre” when you are chasing A Matter of Time.

Arrival at the Temporal Research Centre is this plate. Restoring power inside the centre is Knowledge Transfer, a rarer follow-up.

Walking into the Temporal Research Centre is enough. The halls can still be unpowered. Restoring that power is a later job with its own plate, and the doorway alone does not do it.
