I was able to do this first try but all I used was the hack System reset (which I noticed yiou didnt have) and did this by taking out only two or three key enemies using the cameras. System reset basically makes them unconscious but they never wake up and dont count as a kill. You can even loot their body. You cant put it in a container though or it counts as a death for some reason. System reset costs a lot of ram but again, I am specializing in nethacking so this wasnt an issue.
I totally enjoyed finding this place outside of any quest. I was able to clear it out using stealth. I killed almost everyone but the gardeners as it was obviously an Araska exec that lived there, but just the security goons at home kinda thing. Keep exploring nearby! THere are other rich folks who are more story oriented that live on the east hillside!!!
If you mean the jankiness of a charged up scoped tech rifle the asnwer is YES. I havent had any problesm with my sniper gameplay since switching to a better instrument at level 20. Just use a sniper like the
SPT GRAD instead and you will love the difference. No charging, very little sway using the rather large green MK scope, just head splattering goodness at the touch of the trigger. Only negative isthe reload time is slow so dont expect to go into close combat...it is a ranged sniper weapon for a reason.
LOL, I think the only reason you got the answer you did is that most simply arent runnin out of ammo for whatever reason and cant empathsize with your situation. You could be on hard difficulty where most are on normal? I am a sniper hacking specialist for example so i never run out... I only use one bullet per headshot. Early game though I did craft a few specific ammos and it was almost like it was free....so to answer your question......CRAFT. Ill tread lightly here as you are sensitive to patronization, but you did say above that you werent sure junk could be made into ammo? Yes, it can, and its therefore sort of free (although keep in mind the best way to make money early on is to craft items using this method and selling them so so components are like GOLD.) Thankfully ammo costs very little in the way of components.
Crafting is the best as you can do it anytime and freeze time even in the middle of a gun battle...shops cost too much and and you cant refill on the fly. You will get enough components to craft at any time by breaking down junk...hence the junk comments. Collect all junk->components->Ammo. I dont think youneed any perks in crafting to break down junk and make ammo with the components you get, minimum stats will do.
I feel you with the response time, and most of the time flat out missing of questions, but the thread is moving pretty fast so I dont blame others too much...Ill ask again here:
One poster said he got the 10k from
Merediths cyber chip through hacking...no matter how may times I tried (and successfully hacked the chip) I couldnt get the $$$ part as it said that was blockd by militech. Now I just have the card in my junk. Obvioulsy there is no way to get the money now right? Did the poster actually get the 10k or was he trolling?
edit: I looked it up myself...seems like I may have screwed something up, either I did it too early or didnt wait for the transfer animation to finish DESPITE that it said blocked by militech or whtever:
