So what does the DX11 tessellation actually affect in the game? Anyone got any comparison pictures?
"Oh and Jensen, you've changed a lot in the past six months but it didn't turn you into a woman. Stay out of the ladies' bathroom."
Oh god Malik spoilers
[sp]Ughhh I'm pretty sure its pretty much impossible to save her on pacifist unless I am a masochist and blow through my whole inventory... :(
At least I hear she doesn't show up at all later on even if you do save her. Alas...[/sp]

This. I guess it's possible if you spam EMP grenades at the bot and deplete a fully upgraded energy bar using knockout takedowns.

it's really easy to [sp]save Malik on Pacifist actually. Just make sure you have alotta EMP and gas nades, and stun/takedown everyone who survives. Attack the mech last, as it normally shouldn't see you until you've already beaten the shit out of everyone else.[/sp]

[sp]It's actually pretty easy to do it on a pacifist run, you just have to watch out for the bot explosion as it could kill surrounding baddies. As long as you have tranq ammo and some energy for takedowns you can do it with little issue.[/sp]

I just realized your name is Taggart.
You knew this game was coming didn't you.

All it does is tesselate the edges on the characters so they look more smooth I think

I'm showing up now, and I'm pretty sure I'm not a ghost.
Is there any fix in the graphics options for characters' collars moving with their necks? That bugged me almost as much as how much everyone not-Jensen fidgeted during conversations

Which is probably the best thing it could be used for, rather than Crysis 2's SUPER REALISTIC TESSELLATED BRICKS AND CONCRETE BARRIERS.

Not going to lie to you, that looks more like LOD then tessellation.

you're supposed to be dead

meh, I'm not versed in this field but I know extra polygons when I see them
either way it looks nicer, tessellation or no
[QUOTE=Flygirl;32032654]I'm showing up now, and I'm pretty sure I'm not a ghost.[/QUOTE]
Oh god no, please no more chatroom roleplay. I don't think I can take anymore character desecration.
[QUOTE=Flygirl;32032654]I'm showing up now, and I'm pretty sure I'm not a ghost.[/QUOTE]
Imposter, Malik wasn't Belgian.
That's tessellation doing what it does. It adds additional triangles to models and terrain in order to create more detail without need for model revisions. Basically it raises the poly count or generates more feature.

uh no?
I've had this name before the character was even concepted

Yeah, Taggart told me about what happened in the chat room. It definitely wasn't me, but I suspect Jensen, especially now that I know for sure he broke into my office.

I had to VTOL someone to Belgium, and now I'm posting while I'm waiting for him to finish his job.

Thats the problem though...
[sp]I only have one gas mine to use, and a pack of energy bars. I'm good on ammo but it's pretty much impossible for me to do anything to save her in the 1.5 minutes it takes for her to die. Especially since the largest threat is the box robot, which I can't really do anything against as there aren't any EMP's in the area I've found except for a hidden tunnel under the area. But by the time I get there and somehow survive the electricity, she's already dead. Pretty sure the game designs this area so you pretty much lose it unless you are crazy good or playing on an easier difficulty.
Which is kinda cool I guess, because it makes me feel partially responsible for her death and the game still continues afterwards. Something you don't see everyday in a game.[/sp]
I'm stuck in The Hive, I failed the mission with Jaya and also failed the chat with the manager, I can't progress now, must I start over?

Of course not. There's a way to progress without having the manager direct you to Tong.

Shoot at them. With guns. But don't hit them.
All you need to do is distract everyone shooting at her. Shoot near a guard or robot and he/it will stop shooting at her in order to shoot at you, buying you a lot of time. Unless you're so hardcore pacifist that you don't even have a normal gun on you, then you might have to dance around in order to get one off a baddie first.
I did attempt slaughtering almost everyone in the hive, but alas, nothing did come.
Tried that. I have no armor augs and am playing on hardest so that usually ended with my death :\
Granted I have a headache tonight. I already passed the area.. and the autosave overwrote the begninng so I can't start over even if I wanted to (for some reason it wouldn't let me quicksave during this).

I think we all care about it, but not nearly enough to do anything until it gets solved.

Had no idea the site changed.
They lied, how could they.
Why is the game permanently night time?
