At the end maybe, but in the middle you'll never have enough. Especially if
you try to use expensive vigors like Possession.

Any 360 vs PS3 comparisons?
I will agree that you use guns more, but the gunplay is soooo much better than Bioshock 1...and I love Bioshock 1, but the gunplay was just above Fallout 3 for worst gunplay in an FPS
Also I may be the only one, but I learned to really love the two weapon limit, i was constantly switching weapons and it really made you learn and use all of the weapons the game had to offer...although Hand Cannon was far and above my favorite
EDIT: The only thing I really didnt like actually had to do with the power you mentioned
You couldnt attack possessed machinery and the power was basically useless on mechanized patriots
I have the game, and excited to play, but want to finish a couple games first.... just popping in to see the mood of the thread (huge fan of Bioshock 1), and I'm dissapointed to see that this entire page is talking about only one thing.... guns.
This worries me a bit
edit: Disregard

You can pretty much choose how you play. Some people go gun-heavy, but using mostly vigors with occasional gun-use is totally viable.
good you changed it

But you see the story of Finkton, and all those themes that are brought up there are also supposed to a reflection of Booker.
There is divering. This is like silent hill. Every piece of the town, the racism, the extreme patriotism, and etc...are all part of Bookers mantra and part of the entire theme that connects the two.

I discovered a glitch here, but I think the environments might be a little spoilerific. D:

Ha.
This game seriously went through a shredder at some point between the initial trailers and release.
So last night I got to the entrance of
And...I think the whole story got way more complex.
the factory in Finkton.
Booker's now a hero of the Vox Populi. And he exists in some other form than the player Booker, as evidenced by the Voxophone. He got the signature nosebleed from being doubly alive as well.
Wonder if I'll encounter another Booker along the way. Probably not, it's probably just the same Booker but time paradoxes and whatnot.

Yea I'm hoping they introduce some new gear that slowly regens Salt,(do they? possibly missed a bunch of gear) I really would like to go vigor heavy in play but certain ones are cost prohibitive. I'd like to set traps possess some people and then shock jockey and charge people and just go power nuts but you cant you have to go find salt in between. Unless you go super heavy on salt upgrades and then you have less shield health.
However second time through on hard I am using vigors much more than the first playthrough.
Would be awesome if there was DLC where it adds one more upgrade slot to each vigor. But yeah, that was cool and shouldn't have been cut, if it was.
Also, could someone explain the ending to me?
Booker gets drowned by all the alternative Eliabeth's...? Then it's over, where was the "reveal".
Fixed: Sorry.

yeah there is a bunch of stuff missing from stuff they showed at E3's
Also the release trailer showing Elizabeth being hung makes no sense at all.

and...she dodges a bullet! Glad I didn't see it. I know I probably shouldn't be in here until I finish the game, but the discussion surrounding it is too much fun.

They were going to Comstock house for help?
I mean, an OT where the OP is a FAQ that answers commonly asked questions. There is a lot of the same stuff being asked in the spoiler thread currently.

Phew, thank goodness I got distracted for a bit. Would really suck spoiling the ending when I'm within an hour from completing it haha

This final fight is just utter garbage.
I thought it said that it was written by Ken in the credits. Oh well, it makes sense why I recognized it then :lol
No, it says he produced it, if I remember.

Watched that about a day before I played the game. While it hasn't (and I don't think it does) reached that scale, I'm more than happy with the final product.
Whenever Irrational debuted footage and whatnot like that, I never took it literally. I always approached it by looking at the videos as stuff they were aiming for.
I hope it's not like that earlier

It really is. A lot of amazing page-filling stuff.

I'm actually surprised how many of the elements from the demo did make it into the game in one form or another. They even got the
. Some of the lines of dialog are thrown away, but some of them are re-used for other places.
Zepplin thing in there, complete with the "Booker...that...was AMAZING!"
"Booker...thank you" line after the Lady Comstock story arc, for example
This is what I thought too. A lot of stuff in that footage looked like it would never actually make it into the game but most of it is there and fairly similar to in that footage.

I'm gonna watch that E3 footage now, but I'm glad I effectively blacked this game out from the moment it was announced. After whatever announce reveal they have, I saw no seconds of the game and knew nothing about it, and I enjoyed it all the more for that.
I had some rull bad ammo trouble with that one. also against the silentboyz or whatever they were called--straight up no guns for huge stretches at a time. on hard.
shit was whack.

I remember one demo that had a completely different Daisy Fitzroy voice actor than the one we currently have, but she does the same speech over the intercom later in the game, if you listen for you. "When you...look in the mirror, you see the eyes of a man. But do you know what Comstock sees?" etc
Constants and variables, huh?

Just remember
The recharge time for Songbird is different depending on what you attack. Ground threats trump air threats and have shorter cooldown.
Wish I knew this.
I was just spamming the ships.
In the earlier release she sounded more like a french revolutionary type.
I also miss
walking around Columbia post-revolution seeing the Founders treated like shit. In the game it's just non-stop combat at that point, whilst the demo footage had some nice scenes of walking around and feeling the tension.

I agree the game would have really benefited from a some slowdown and exploring during that section. oh well
It took me 18 hours but I explored like a mofo.
