It isn't even complicated. Here, I'll explain it in this greentexting fashion since I've trained my brain to only be able to explain things this way.
>Hold down button
>You are now completely protected by a projectile-absorbing shield
>Release after collecting enough damage to toss a short-ranged ball of death/trap
[QUOTE=Skyward;40064519]People shoot you, collect their bullets, throw it back as a grenade. More bullets, more boom. Works like a charm against people that riddle you with lead IE: Turrets and Patriots.[/QUOTE]
It said to hold it to catch bullets though, but holding it just seemed to charge traps?
And if I just pressed it, it didn't seem to really do all that much.
i just beat it and all i have to say is holy fuck that ending
Also, can somebody link me a high quality image of [sp]Comlubia attacking NY[/sp] for a wallpaper? I remember someone posted it a while back
Also if you only tap the button it will put a temporary shield out for you that will absorb all incoming damage.

Nah, hold it, and bullets that come at you from the front at collected into a ball. Then you throw it and it becomes a trap.
It needs to collect a lot to become truly effective. That's why it works very well on Patriots and Turrets.

Took me a second.
[QUOTE=Skyward;40064547]I want to write a STRONGLY WORDED LETTER to Irrational and ask them for multiple save slots.
I am dying to do a second playthrough, but my brother just started his today, and I don't wanna overwrite it...[/QUOTE]
Actually, does anyone know a work around for this?
I looked, but I can't seem to find a save folder anywhere :/
[QUOTE=Simplemac3;40064583]Took me a second.[/QUOTE]
I'm dumb. Explanation?
[QUOTE=Zuimzado;40064617]I'm dumb. Explanation?[/QUOTE]
Uh, I mean it could be spoilerific depending on how far you are in the game
Kinda depends on how fast you pick things up I guess
[sp] Its the Lutece twins, whose name is spelled damn close to Lettuce[/sp]

Enable Multiple Save-game Slots
Infinite’s saving system defaults astonishingly to only one slot, and that throws an electric-charged wrench into the prospect of keeping several playthroughs at once with different power combinations and choice outcomes.
Luckily, GameFront figured out, with a little file finagling, how to swap around multiple saved games whenever you need them. The process is somewhat clunky, but it gets the job done:
1. Make sure Steam cloud synchronization is disabled.
2. Make a backup of your BioShock Infinite “savedata” directory. It should be located here: ..Steamuserdata[your Steam ID]8870remotesavedata
3. Create as many subfolders as you want within this directory. Assume that each of them contains a save game.
4. Simply move the contents of the “savedata” directory into the corresponding subfolder whenever you or anyone else wants to start a new game.
5. When you start a new game, a new save file for that game will be automatically created within the main “savedata” directory.
6. When you want to switch playthroughs, first move the current file in the “savegame” directory into a sub-folder for safekeeping (remember to name the sub-folders so you remember which is which). Secondly, move the playthrough you’d like to load from its sub-folder into the main “savegame” directory, which will enable you to continue from that file.

Bit dodgy but you know

also I would kill for a Songbird plushie, somebody better get on that shit
I am dying to get this game, but i'm going to wait until it's on sale in the summer sale or something like that
[sp]So the stuff Elizabeth brings in through tears are from different Columbia's from different time lines right? So why is there so much health, weapons, ammo, and pieces of cover in the other Columbia's, and not in the one that matters. How convenient...[/sp]
Shotgun is the only gun I really use so far in the game. It's super powerful. Not far in the game yet, but it gets the job done compared to most guns I have found
[sp]As much fun as 'tearing' in porta-loo's and other useless things would be. It would be slightly less serious... Maybe Elizabeth sort of selects what tears you can see. IE, if it wasn't for elizabeth being near, there wouldn't even be the slight tears, but she looks through the other worlds and sees something useful, and then shows it to us. or not. [/sp]

Game mechanics pretty much.

I had to switch to the shotgun late game as I ran out of ammo for my main guns. It did not go well for me against the end game enemies.

Maybe its a dumb question on my part, but where is that directory? I can't seem to find it.

OR
[sp]"wish fulfillment"[/sp]
RE: Skyward
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\37495480\8870 I assume that is where they mean, looks right in any case
Sooo why didn't the [sp]Luteces explain everything to Booker, and who killed the guy in the lighthouse in the beginning?[/sp]

Guess, I am going to have to get used to using some of the other guns now. Oh god.
The [sp]Luteces[/sp] are my new favourite side-characters, their [sp]situational unawareness and lack of emotion truly makes them a unique character. They are very much like Observers (Fringe) or Time Lords.[/sp]
I wonder, is there a specific word for characters like them?

Fully upgraded Machine Gun is a powerhouse.

She does say it's a form of wish fulfillment.

Oh, the problem I had was I had multiple Steam IDs in that directory and didn't know which was mine :v:
