Guest abusivegeorge Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Just started this today on Xbox, played it for about 3 hours and have just got to the mission where I have to get the antenna for three dog. Fantastic game, am starting to get worried about the lack off ammo and aid though. I've mugged every monster of their hunter rifles and ammo and it's still getting difficult.

I'm playing it on Very Easy because I see no point in wasting ammo. But the more level ups you get the bigger and more bad ass weapons you'll find - including ammo.

Hoodie Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 i never had a problem with ammo and i'm playing on normal. maybe you guys should try to do more head shots in vats, because it usually takes less hits than hitting the body to kill the target.

Blir Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Completed this just now. Amazing game, probably my favourite game this year. Ending's a bit underwhelming but all these multiple ending games are really. It's not as long as I expected, I think you have to explore to get the most out of this. I had 78 hours playtime and missed three missions I think. Not bad, definitely will get a replay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My playtime for Dead Space is like 7 1/2 hrs and I thought I was playing it a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ego Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 I just unleashed furious ghouls on some stuck-up snob 'town' and witnessed the lovely destruction of their fancy lives. I chose to make that happen. Amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoodie Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Egads! You are correct. Christ knows. I accessed it by hacking an invisible terminal (whilst under the influence of a Stealth Boy) in the power station near Minefield. Think the entrance was on the top level; a ladder drops down. I ploughed all of my points into Science, with Perception being my overruling ability. So maybe that's a prerequisite, dunno. There's a small town there, repairers, clinic etc., and Old Captain Des is in the circular room guarded by a Ghoul called (I think) Rhisome. Think he's an android, I used the component that the bitch in Rivet City gave me, he won't talk to you unless you can supply him with it. where is this hidden terminal exactly? i look all around the power station and i couldn't find it.

Guest abusivegeorge Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 I'm starting it all over again I fucked myself way up accidentally shooting a girl and killing her in one shot back at Megaton, now I cant go back there or I get shot to pieces instantly plus I have fuck all ammo and health, I'm gonna start it again on very easy.

Hoodie Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 if you leave megaton for a few days and come back, i think it's supposed to reset them so they don't hate you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest abusivegeorge Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Yea thats what I was told but it doesn't seem to be working, I don't mind restarting anyway, like a tit I didn't start using the VATS system untill like just now as well, no wonder I have no ammo, I just disregarded it and didnt think it was important, and then I accidentally tapped RB and now it all makes sense.

Guest thejacketloose Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 where is this hidden terminal exactly? i look all around the power station and i couldn't find it. If memory serves it's in the on a set of shelves (the only terminal I've seen on one) between a toolbox and a steam gauge assembly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dild0 Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 speech volume level pre Sticky's quest <++++++++++++++++++-------> speech volume level during Sticky's quest <---------------------------------------> awesome game. devasting a supermutant's face while there are The Ink Spots in background= priceless After Oblivion,i was quite scared about the use of the same game engine in this game too..but the results are quite good. well Bethesda's folks learned a lot from the Oblivion moddage. they used a lot of graphics tricks in fallout3 to avoid shitty performances (e.g. low poly grass mod,AEVWD mod etc..) anyway,best game of the year for me so far tied with Mass effect. i had a lot of fun playing it,finished it the other night.nearly 70 hours of gameplay,level 19,but i'll take one of the last savegames to continue solving other quests once i've finished dead space too. yep, it's pretty much godlike. Once it gets patched and modded the way Oblivion was, it will probably be the best in the series (or at least tied with Fallout 1), and one of the best games of all time. there were alot of useful mods in oblivion,but some of them totally killed the game. do you remember Qarl's retexture mod? all people drooling about the amazing new textures definition..but no one noticed that the vanilla textures were better optimized for the lighting effects (HDR etc). i always preferred the bomret's mod. i beat it yesterday. i was disapointed they didn't go through and show you the outcome of all your choices like they did in fallout 2. i hadn't maxed out my character or even explored the whole map really, and i hadn't even touched energy weapons or big guns. it was kind of a surprise that it was allready over when i finished it. what,did you finish it on level 2?? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christ, how did you go 70 hours and not get to level 20? I was level 20 for ages, felt like there wasn't enough levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest catsonearth Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 yea, i don't know what you guys are talking about. i'm playing on the normal setting and it's fine. certain things are hard to kill (super mutant masters, yao guai, etc.), but not impossible. you just gotta think strategically and make sure your weapons are in good condition or else they wont be very strong or accurate. and yes, VATS is necessary. it's not right for every situation, but you can't really get through the game without it (well, maybe you can if you've got a lot of ammo). another tip, when you're sneaking (ie, crouched), you can inflict much more damage on an enemy who hasn't spotted you yet. it's best to approach every situation cautiously and pull off a sneak attack using your hunting rifle or other long range weapons, especially for unusually tough baddies. if you can do this, you'll knock out most of their life with one shot with plenty of time to pick them off before they can get close enough to really tear you up. and sometimes the only answer is a shotgun blast to the head. or bottlenecking them in a hallway with some frag mines. variety...it's the spice of life!
