Well at least you should get more XP for clubbing someone in the back of the head manually. More effort, bigger reward.
[QUOTE=Zezibesh;28605480]Well at least you should get more XP for clubbing someone in the back of the head manually. More effort, bigger reward.[/QUOTE] Not really, considering how you lose one whole pip of energy if you wish to perform a single takedown.
[QUOTE=Zezibesh;28605480]Well at least you should get more XP for clubbing someone in the back of the head manually. More effort, bigger reward.[/QUOTE] It's still one button press. Clubbing somebody in the back of the head with the press of a button in DX was still easy.
[QUOTE=ZakKa!;28605637]It's still one button press. Clubbing somebody in the back of the head with the press of a button in DX was still easy.[/QUOTE] If anything this makes you think about when you're taking someone out. Stops you from sprinting around the level knocking people out in one hit without putting effort into it. I think its more for balance then anything.
Wow, that tiny snippet of gameplay makes me want to have the game right now. Why did it have to be delayed!!??
[QUOTE=redBadger;28607818]Wow, that tiny snippet of gameplay makes me want to have the game right now. Why did it have to be delayed!!??[/QUOTE] Get more marketing time and they want people to buy it when nobody has money/time because of college. Just think of how polished the game will be.
[QUOTE=redBadger;28607818]Why did it have to be delayed!!??[/QUOTE] bureaucracy and financial reasons on squeenix's part

Playing through Deus Ex again, I reach the area under Versalife or something with the giant machines and shit. I jump over the railings with the running aug active and crush Maggie Chow into a fine bloody pulp, skipping straight through the final confrontation with her. Oooops.

[QUOTE=spekter;28601659]Huntsman must be what they mean by unconventional. Its a pretty weird weapon placed in this kind of universe but hopefully the unconventional weapons aren't overpowered or only used in one level. Notice the 'Script Kiddie' reward for when he hacked the security terminal.[/QUOTE] Like I said before, I'm almost certain the the huntsman is a reference to johnny mnemonic, which they specifically stated that they looked at for inspiration.

Just realized I've never beaten Deus Ex. Gonna beat it over spring break. Any mods I should use or is a vanilla playthrough good enough?
[QUOTE=PotatoArmada;28631069]Just realized I've never beaten Deus Ex. Gonna beat it over spring break.

Deus Ex issue 5 cover is out. [img]http://dccomics.com/media/product/1/8/18321_400x600.jpg[/img] [url]http://dccomics.com/dcu/comics/?cm=18321[/url] I doubt I will buy the comics since they seem to be pretty spoilerish.
Do they lead into the game?
[QUOTE=5killer;28636042]Do they lead into the game?[/QUOTE] They are kinda like the true canon I think.
Icarus Effect and the comics are both canon. [editline]16th March 2011[/editline] Speaking of which has anyone finished IE yet? I'm just over halfway through.
[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;28639863]Icarus Effect and the comics are both canon. [editline]16th March 2011[/editline] Speaking of which has anyone finished IE yet? I'm just over halfway through.[/QUOTE] I've finished it. Fantastic read, really drags you into the universe. EM didn't say comics were straight canon. Something like it was an imagining of how the events would play out. I need to find the exact quote.
Thinking about piccking up IE myself, I've been needing to read a book now. Especially since it's spring break :3:
Will the comic art actually be good? It seems like a lot of comics based on games like Gears of War and Mass Effect have really shitty artists.

Very glad for the widescreen.

Hopefully there will be more stealth and talking rather than shooting and blowing things up.
Just finished IE That bittersweet ending :britain: :911:
