I do miss the option for unarmed combat outside of takedowns a bit though.

Probably the most annoying part of this game, seeing as stealth is valued. Why don't we get a knife?

dont like the sarif battery system.. it blows and all you do is look for candy bars

I think I broke the final boss battle. Using the laser rifle enables you to fire through the glass directly at the boss girl, without going through the three purge procedures first. lol

Pff, I phrased it vaguely enough that you wouldn´t know whats what until you played it.

I actually only defeated the first boss last night, not really been playing this much

Spoiler (highlight to read):
was a bit disappointed that you're given the choice on how to do the missions.. not so much on how to do the bosses. I got ghost through the whole thing, got to the cutscene and was presented with the big ass guy with a fucking chaingun on his arm, all I had were stun guns and the tranq rifle, some chocolate bars and no offensive augmentations

That's pretty much everyone who has played the games main complaint..
I'll give you a tip though, the first boss can be defeated by simply throwing the barrels in the room at him, he goes down pretty much before doing damage to you.

The developers even admitted to have "outsourced" the bossfights to another company.

They did say that "The missing link" DLC would feature a bossfight more suitable for the game since they do it themselves...

EDIT: Another tip, do yourself a favor and pick the dermal-armor EMP shield asap... you will thank me later... (unless you like frustration, in that case, don't take emp shield)

all you had to do was cloak and keep chucking the red barrels at him

You don't even need cloak, each barrel stuns him so you can pretty much kill him without getting hit at all

i dunno i went out full assault on him, i try to stealth (see post #102 above) but i just end up mass murdering everyone instead or get some bots to do it for me.

1. Aquire tranq. rifle.
2. Hide out of other guards' path
3. Shoot guard, next guard comes to check on him
4. Shoot the guard that came to check
5. Repeat 4 and 5 untill all guards are unconcious...

Also, non-lethal takedowns are 100% silent, you can literally do it on guards standing less than 1 meter apart without getting detected as long as they don't look at eachother.

Then again I'm guessing it's the temptation to brutally murder everyone that gets you and not the "difficulty" in staying undetected

Revolver with exlosive ammo upgrade. No one gets away. NO. ONE.

I loved it right up until I upgraded it to explosive, then it felt so useless to me

I know it owns with the explosive bullets, I just think it felt better as a normal revolver

Then again who needs the Revolver when you got an armor piercing silenced pistol...

A loop? seriously? lame.

Finished the game.

Tried to take the endings seriously. Your boss's (Sarif's) way would spin out of control too quickly. Suicide at the end of video games sucks ass. Darrow's spins out of control against tech. So I ultimately went with William Taggart. Sarif can fire me if he wants to, but I guess I'll find out the canon ending when I play the DLC. Maybe you survive "suicide."
