[QUOTE="Cherokee_Jack"]Bubut hacking is hard. :(Cherokee_Jack

It's quite easy actually :P Unless you're playing with a controller then I could see it being hard.

Most of the time, I'm all like "OMG....HOW DID I WIN THAT!?" with only .5 seconds left.

The timer is just so fast sometimes. Even with 3 nukes I had a hard time hacking the bomb in the first mission. I guess the IceBreaker from the first game made me soft, because you could hack literally anything by just clicking the button and waiting.

I landed in the middle of the room and everybody started screaming that I armed the bomb. So I panicked and shot the tanks, totally disarming it! :P

You get a lot of achievements with your first playthrough, especially if you take alternate routes and do the side quests.

The guys in the room before had the code to disarm it, you know.

I've finished 2 playthroughs, though on my second I skipped a lot of videos. Some were easy, but there are some hard ones (i.e. Pacifist and completing the game on Hard).

Basically, always try and fully persuade any individual you talk to in-game, as it'll likely have an achievement attached.

It does. Sneaking through is really easy though, especially when you are used to the controls.

Oh, and like Chubby said (I feel awful shortening his name lol) doing all the sidequests have achievements attached and a few even have 2 achievements (e.g. Shanghai Justice etc).

Don't know if you guys know of this, but there's a hacking glitch that allows infinite experience and praxis points, so if you want to start the game with everything maxed out it's possible, but apparently takes a long time to accumulate enough exp.

Stupid glitchspot hates my link. Tutorial video can be found on YT, just search for "infinite xp/praxis".

Consoles have FPS issues I hear. I haven't had any texture problems, and only 2 crashes in 1 and a 3rd playthroughs.

It does not, as far as I am aware. Those two you have to kill are definitely not counted.

Yea derp. I forgot those two, and I just killed them again last night :P. Now the better question is, does hacking robots and letting them kill humans count against it?

Pc is the best version of course :P

I have a GTX 570 and I'm getting the same problems. I think it's an issue with Nvidia. I rolled back from 280 drivers to 275and haven't crashed nearly as much since.

Consoles have poor FPS and bad loading times.

Yeah, I think it does, though I have never found an absolute answer. For the Pacifist, I just invested heavily into stealth and it was pretty easy :P

I use the 280.26 drivers, that one with 3D vision built in. I am not that happy to go back to older drivers tho because i need this one for other games :?

I'm about 30 hours or so deep into this, and I reckon it's probably in my top 3 games of the gen. Sure it has some minor annoyances (the boss fights ARE total s***), but I'm surprised it didn't manage AAA here.

I'm playing the PC version, and they clearly didn't review each version separately. The game loads as fast on the PC as most other PC games with load times, normally 4-7 seconds. How can you mark a game down for load times that quick?

I've only had one crash so far, and have encountered no other obvious bugs. I had minor glitches on a single quest not updating on my PDA (but when I found the objective the quest allowed me to finish), and other than a few bodies spazzing on objects when you're dragging them, the game has been smooth sailing.

If you JUST got to China for the first time, you're probably 25-30% in, maybe a bit more. There's not many sidequests in each hub, usually 2-3 (from what I've found and what the walkthrough says there are) which is a bit disappointing, I was expecting more. Still all good though.

I failed in my quest for Pacifist - I'm playing on hard too so it can be frustrating. I'm not gonna kill innocents though :P Only those who would end up killing me if they had the chance. I was overwhelmed with how much stuff there is to do with the game (the side quests are all extremely fleshed out and branch out) but I'm getting more used to it now - been relying on the quest screen a LOT though :P

I'm only just a bit further than you, working on a side quest as we speak (Rotten Business). So far I still think I'm good on my pacifist achievement :) Not sure about Foxiest of the hounds, and I also just got the Haxzor achievement.

I also discovered the augmentation for doing a double take-down that only costs you 1 cell too. Don't know how I overlooked it before (weird spot I think on the augmentation trees), and it's fantastic for getting you an additional 45 XP to the others you get (man down, merciful soul, expedient).

Finished it a couple of hours ago. Got the Pacifist and Foxiest of the Hounds, which makes me happy, because being completely stealthy makes the game so much better.

A really amazing game, shame that after [spoiler] Omega Ranch [/spoiler] it went downhill, both gameplay and story-wise [spoiler] it became a "chase the bad guy" scenario, and that last mission was so bad... and(all of) the endings aren't satisfactory, at all. They're nice videos to watch, but they're too drastic and they don't even touch the sub-topics, like Adam reuniting with Megan, etc. [/spoiler]

What are the stipulations for Foxiest of the Hounds? Is it if they turn "Hostile"? That's what i've been told, but I want to make sure for my run through for the achievement.

Tbh, I'm not sure. To my understanding, it means actual alarms (the ones enemies need to trigger on those green pads), or when they call for back up via radio or screaming. Cameras, turrets and robots also count as alarm.

There seems to be a lot of counfusion about it, so I played the whole game without getting anyone hostile (reloading if that happen), so I can testify that works.

I guess reloading a lot would be bothersome for most people, but I actually think it makes the game much better. The true fun of a stealth game is going completely unnoticed : D

I love not being seen. I started a new game where I could get Foxiest of the Hounds and the cheevo for reading all the books. Unfortunately, about 3-4 hours in, my HUD disappeared and by the time I noticed, I had no saves with the HUD still on. Stupid glitch :x

I have not played as much as i wanted because the game keep crashing and i get kinda mad when it happens so i don't restart the game direct after. But how does that "double take down" aug work? I first started put out points in "Hacking" and "stealth hacking" and maxed out inventory.

I really hope they come out with a new patch very soon so i can finish this game :cry:

You can take-down 2 bad guys next to each other whilst only using one battery cell. It's really handy.

Just completed. Very solid game. Many games that have immersive atmospheres make sacrifices in terms of gameplay. But this is an exception. Amazing. But I did feel that the final choice just carried no weight. What're your thoughts about that?

Well they couldn't make the choices radically affect the world or the first game wouldn't make sense. So they had to make them different while still ultimately leading to the same thing. Kind of a difficult task I imagine.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I have to restart my game. I was just after the 2nd boss pretty much. Anytime I tried to load any of my saves, it would just get stuck in the loading screen. :(

You can take-down 2 bad guys next to each other whilst only using one battery cell. It's really handy.

Basically, if two enemies are right next to each other and you have the augmentation, you need only press the takedown button once, and Adam will do just what's expected, either seeing a flashy martial arts sequence where his movements seamlessly carry from one target right to the next, or grabbing both their heads and bashing them together. And for only the cost of one cell :)

I wish I had spotted this sooner, it's essential for the stealth & non-lethal route in gameplay.

Oh yeah i got that skill now, awesome thx for tips. I going to try a stealth run once i finish my first run. I am amazed i just finished a whole session without crashing, i had DirectX 11 turned off. Lol i got owned badly by a boss, was not well prepared, wish i had some other weapons with me but will be easy next time.

In my first playthrough i want explore like everything but next time i think i going to skip lots stuff not really needed. Inventory get full very fast and often store is far away so cant sell things.

I told you how to work around it for now. Disabling Dx11 did it for me, and I can't really tell a difference graphically, though I'm sure there is one.

I'd just toss a concussion grenade, take out one and stun gun the other (preferrably on the groin). The downsides of oing it this way has made me realise how inconsistent in length some of the takedowns are where the other person would recover and see me (but in my head that dude is saying "cool moves Jensen")

Clocked it last night. Ending was a bit of a disappointment and i was disapointed by the lack of locations. Detroit & Heng Sha was awesome but apart from those, there were no other open enviroments and the others felt too small. You didn't even get to see the top city of Heng-Sha. It was still a good fun game though.

Yea that was a bit disappointing. Really not too much you can do with the ending though. I'm sure it's quite difficult to make an ending that makes sense and is quality while keeping in mind it has to fit in with the start of Deus Ex 1.

Yes i turned off Dx11 but it crashed anyway yesterday, but today i have played with no crash at all. And i hope nvidia fix some better drivers as well.
