Anyone else think that a fully decked out pistol is the cheapest weapon in the game bar none?
Instant head shot kills, armor pen, silent, laser scope.
It's really the bombdiggity. But it's also bad in that it's not very flashy - when I want to go on a killing spree, it's actually more effective to pull out the pistol than to use a maxed out heavy rifle.
Maybe it'd be different without a targeting reticle and a mouse

It wouldn't be Deus Ex if you couldn't make your pistol into a pocket god. That was how I rolled in my first playthrough of the original game, got me all nostalgic.Zaptruder said:Anyone else think that a fully decked out pistol is the cheapest weapon in the game bar none?

For that second point, through dialogue choices it's possible for Jensen to call him out when you first see him.

2 is incorrect.
It was indeed really annoying. I hate it when games fuck with your vision and/or controls for effect. I knew something bad was going to happen when I got my biochip replaced but curiosity got the best of me. Now I know never to do that in future replays.Zaptruder said:
Yea I remember Jenson deducing he's Tong by the way the nearby bodyguard was acting.Rickenslacker said:
Also, do we really have to resort to point and laugh posts? There's lots of stupid shit on internet forums just ignore it if it bothers you.

What's funny about the Tong encounter is
that there is a clear dialogue path where he stays away from shouting - bring me to your boss!
I went down that path - at the very end of it, there's a dialogue option in the read out that indicates that you/jensen have already caught onto the fact that he's actually Tong
But when spoken out, the wording is changed slightly to indicate that he still doesn't know who Tong is (but it's a bit ambiguous).
Then when you get down, he blurts out - oh you're Tong, like a dumbass.

Goddamn. I played this game for 7 straight hours today. I haven't done that in years. This game is amazing.

Funny how there are some games that last 7 hours and you feel ripped off when you finish it. I paid full price for Kane & Lynch 2 and that was 4 hours long...Unknown Soldier said:

The 10mm is really a monster. To be honest I don't carry anything but the revolver and the 10mm. Both of them can use laser sights so I don't need to bother with iron sights and they both pretty much wreck everything. Their unique upgrades (explosive rounds/armor piercing rounds) seem head and shoulders above the other weapons to boot.
I noticed that Jensen acted unusually irrational and emotional is some cases during Detroit playthrough (like when talking to Haas). On the one hand he's predefined character and that makes him look more human. On the other hand their lead writer was a woman. I'm not talking "lulz women are emotional, irrational, can't write male characters for shit" but it's interesting to see these little differencies because it's very rare to see male characters express emotions in games if we don't count "I'LL BREAK YOUR FUCKING FACE BITCH" type of emotion.
also I really enjoy verbal battles. Generally dialogues are pretty ok, but in these cases they almost shine. It's very satisfying to choose different emotional approach and then vary it during the scene. I won only 1 battle out of three. Also I don't know if street talk sounds authentic but it's also done well in my opinion. I'm not native speaker though, so I can't judge.

10k replies! This thread will soon overtake the Crysis 2 one. Next milestone is The Witcher 2 @ 13k, then Red Dead @ 18k.
Killzone 2 with 33k replies is out of reach, though.

I decided to pimp up my rifle. But I hardly use it because there's always the risk of alerting someone. So my main gun is the sun rifle. Love the lead addon that accounts for bullet drop and target speed.

I had some performance issues at first on my aging machine so I downloaded that Game Booster thing I read on GAF about and damn, this is a pretty game. It looks refreshingly different from all the other stuff and reminds me a bit of No More Heroes. It's certainly got a hint of cel-shading.

So im at the part where you have to disable a signal that Pritchard ask you about and how do you get pass the mines w/o triggering them?

Awesome, thanks
edit: If your playing on the PC ya need to press capslock or hold C while crouched resulting to an even more slower movement. Damn motion sensing mines
you know i really wonder how you play like that
i mean, im not trying to be offensive, but its a real question
like, you clearly dont look at all of it at the same time, specially considering the size of the HUD. The main screen is still the main screen.
So arent you basically just narrowing down the FOV on the important screen and getting it all distorted in the rest? looks like a fisheye camera, must look weird in motion tbh.
I might get it for other games, but cant imagine liking it on an FPS.

You're not supposed to look at the other screens directly. They act as purely peripheral vision. The main screen looks the same as it would, but you get a more immersive viewpoint.SalsaShark said:

everyone got stoked first with that trailer man
Its probably my favorite videogame trailer ever.
Rickenslacker said:
uhg, i dont know man, i mean, the fov you set is for the whole image, so basically you're taking stuff you see on a regular screen to peripheral screens that youre not supposed to look at directly.
Its like playing 3 inches away from a 50inch monitor or something.

The view of the main screen is the same as it ever was, you're just getting a shitload more to see in the surrounding view.SalsaShark said:
