Ares mission - how do I use blocker IC codes?
I did this mission and found all the codes. But when Is0bel went up against the blocker IC I had as I recall no option other than to hack it as normal. I commented at the time to myself how useless that was and meant to file a bug on it. But apparently some people figured it out, so .. how do I use the codes?

I only ever found the one code. And you should be able to use it in the password field below hack and force.

When you're at the right blocker IC in the matrix you just input the password. You will have to manually type it though, which is a pain.

You use them at the digitial locked doors in the matrix, there a few doors which has a code type in field just below where Force open option is.

EDIT: That said i think developers should really add like a tutorial for the new matrix, there a lot of mechanic in it that makes things easier once you get to understand them. Hated the new matrix with a infuriated passion to begin with but once i got the hang of it wasn't so bad. Think a lot hate forward new matrix would been less if its mechanics been explained better through a quick tutorial play.

Never got the option to use them on the blockers.
Guessing a bug?

They did in patch 3.06
It seems random. I reloaded an earlier save, jacked in, and the option came up. Tried a second time and it didn't. Definitely a bug.
