Thank you very much, it seems to be exactly what I was looking for

Spoiler about early side-missions

Spoiler

I seem to have somehow missed sidemissions SM01 and SM02. Was that because I pissed off Otar and thus didn't talk to him any futher/didn't get any quests from him? Please only answer with Yes or No and don't spoil anything, I'm gonna do a 2nd playthrough

I don't think these two side missions have anything to do with Otar. You probably missed them

[Mesharey]

I don't like that you can miss side-missions, I missed no. 9 I think, where you need to do side mission 3 in a specific way.

 

[shiba5]

Also don't use drill in GRAM.

I think you can easily defeat Marchenko with Kill Switch.

You can use the drill just don't contact Miller. That sets off an automatic alarm.

 

[Ducarmel]

I don't mind missing missions but the way the game sets it up seems like it punishes you if you play it a certain way.

There should be alternative side missions if you decide to do things differently.

It's been a while now, anyone have any in-depth impression on Breach yet?

 

[Laurentius]

Prague was amazing at first, but I'm getting kind of sick of it. =( Really sad about the lack of a second hub.

 

[Mideon]

Doing New Game + now just killing everything is so satisfying after sneaking around on the first play through.

 

[White Wolf]

Just curious. What do you find amazing about it? Because if it's

Spoiler

the virtual world and hacking puzzles, there is a whole gamemode that is about that. Or is it the story/plot?

That's what I did. Some tips (ENDGAME SPOILERS):

- Don't touch any guard at all, if you don't have to.
- Use Multitools (if you have them) to bypass any door that is relevant to story and to your stealth approach.
-

Spoiler

Leave the area where you meet Janus through the elevator shaft. Don't go through the sewers, as that is an scripted auto-alarm.

-

Spoiler

Always contact Alex instead of Miller.

-

Spoiler

Take out all 11 guards at the party in London and hide them.

-

Spoiler

Take out the 3 guards in the Catering area in London.

-

Spoiler

Go to Marchenko first and use the Button on the 2nd Floor under the desk which unlocks a hidden door (near the Security PC and Turret) to get to the delegates without ever seeing an enemy. Bypassing the whole area to get to the delegates on the normal way.

-

Spoiler

When fighting Marchenko, don't let him see you after the cutscene. Go to the 2nd floor on the right side and disable all of the Security. Watch out for Mines and Lasers in that area. You can get rid of Marchenko by using the Stun Gun + Silent Takedown.

I hope you get it, as the achievement is unfortunately glitched. Will sometimes trigger alarns in areas you have left already, without telling you. The only way to tell is a music clue, which only plays when an alarm is triggered appareantly. But even then, you won't be notified on your HUD.

I may have forgotten something, so use the internet to look up even more tips.

as for that last point,

marchenko

already saw me before i used an emp on him and then headshotted him 5 times with a stun gun. i still got foxiest (and pacifist), so i don't think him seeing you is relevant for foxiest.

Considering that they have trophies attached to alarm and kill counts, why do HR and MD have such poor stat-tracking?

The app for this one didn't work when I last checked it

The app is completely worthless.

 

[BadHand]

Failing a hack ruins foxiest? Godamn it.

Can I start a new game+ on "I didn't ask for this" difficulty of does it have to be on the same difficulty as the original play through?

 

[Strangelove77]

Is there a tranquilizer handgun in the game? Or a way to modify a regular handgun to shoot tranquilizer ammo?
I already have the tranq sniper, but it'd be nice to have a handgun.

There is one. You start with it if you choose non-lethal. Otherwise they can be found in various places.

 

[Applesauce]

I missed the harvester side mission during my first time through the game, holy shit what a side mission.

Edit : talking about "the last harvest" to be exact.

You can buy stun gun at vendor two floors down Adam's apartment.

It's been a while now, anyone have any in-depth impression on Breach yet?

I was just going to comment on it. Tried it for the first time today after beating the campaign last night.

Got through the tutorial and a little into the first map. Think of Breach as the VR mode in Metal Gear. There are sometimes certain objectives that you have to complete (get data cubes, beat a certain enemy) and you get rewarded with credits/xp which allow you to earn praxis points and buy booster card packs.

The packs are akin to Rose of the Tomb Raider, where you can make levels harder or easier for yourself. You also get weapons and ammo stuff through them too. This is where real money comes in if you want to buy more booster packs instead of earning them.

Other than that, it's Deus Ex MD gameplay. You've got guards roaming around and such, but the levels (so far, still early) are not as expansive as the main game's areas. That's fine, because I'm having some fun trying to do the time trail sections of each level.

There are some story elements in it, and some dialogue choices though it happens like a IM computer messaging in MD.

I had a freeze though on Xbox today.

 

[icespide]

wow I sure am glad I maxed out my cloak. made getting around Prague while under martial law a lot easier

 

[Rising_Hei]

Just ended it today, i felt like the game's history ended at 70-80 % or what should have been.
DLC's probably going to fix it, tho.

Meh, fix to a degree. After the Desperate Measures dlc, I have little interest. You can tell it was cut from the main game, what with how cutscenes would just end and you'd already be at the next area instead of having to go their yourself. It was pretty upsetting really. If the other dlc are like that, I'm just going to watch em on YouTube.

 

[Norwegian_Imposter]

ok, I started again with some decent augs now and I am really starting to love it now. the cloak is OP and I love it!

 

[WonderCheese]

It is an amazing oversight. Can't believe they didn't remedy this problem in Mankind Divided.

 

[Laurentius]

Are there any mods to get rid of Adam's arms when running? It just looks so awkward.

 

[firenskill2000]

I don't remember a damn thing about HR other than that I did like it. Is there a recap or anything in the beginning or is the story disconnected enough that it doesn't matter?

 

[Regginator]

Before starting a new MD game you get an option to watch a 12-minute recap video of HR.

Yes. Also the constant back-and-forth between the two districts gets annoying.

To be fair, Sarif has legit concerns of wanting to talk to Adam without using his infolink.

 

[Laurentius]

I kind of hate it when I'm playing stealthy and non lethal, but then a cutscene triggers where Adam just walks into a room and extends his arm blade (the arm blade I haven't used once). Not my Adam!

What a shame -

It's what i thought with this game, i think it needed even more dev time to have a proper last third... like literally 33 % more of game.

HR had its fault and there were HUBS that were cut but the experience was complete and epic, even without the dlc chunk it received later

 

[Glass]

This guys made a song inspired by the game, really good. The electronic parts could have been lifted straight from the game's soundtrack.

I think with female vocals or a stronger singer it could be perfect, but its awesome either way.
