Re: Using the patch 1.0.1 on a game in progress

Just an FYI,

Installed 1.0.1 patch without incident. Restored savegame from 1.0.0 working just fine. Now in DXI.

Using the patch 1.0.1 on a game in progress

I want to install 1.0.1, but am in the middle of a playthrough (right before I go to DXI on WC storyline) and don't want to start over. I realize that you will not see changes to maps that you have already visited, but I'd like to know if there are actually any crash/gamestopping bugs that might ari...

Is there a way into the King's Apartments Building?

1. Yes or no

2. Can you do it with any story arc, or is it specific to PDX or WC?

(Note: I already finished PDX storyline)

But it seems a lot of PDX-aligned players don't accept that mission because they're afraid it might ruin their relationship to PDX. Pretty obvious in hind-sight.

Yep. I declined his offer for exactly that reason.

Re: Aug quantities

Those are the ones I'm aware about, probably there are more: regen/eshield - 3 (I've only ever found 2 of them) What? Man, I'm at the Space Station and I never found ANY regen augs. in the whole game so far. I've been lugging around 3 aug upgrades just waiting to run into one and it never happens. ...

Re: how the hell did you guys kill ZP?

I quickly laid down one of those "radial fire" mines and lured him to step over it. After that it was all done!!! Pretty easy, actually.

The "double" of yourself you meet in the Aunt Betty ruins.

I *LOVE* those mines. They are the best new weapon in the game.

Re: Stuck in Aunt Betty Industries

BTW, by taking out all those guards, not only did you waste precious ammo, you also cheated yourself of one of the most badass scripted sequences in the game :( That's OK. I save in multiple slots all the time, so I'm going to turn back the clock and do things differently. I figured I was missing s...

Stuck in Aunt Betty Industries

It looks like I am very close to the space shuttle area. I've reached a long bay underground with a bright, colorful "Leviathan" robot. Past him are several barricades of World Corp/ABI soldiers. I fought through the barricades and have come to a large hanger door that is closed shut with no opening...

Re: Bugs

Apologize if this has already been reported (I imagine it has). SPOILER of course: When you finish the quest to kill the Goat Leader, the reward you receive is not what the Llama leader says in his dialogues. Twice he says you will receive 1,000 credits, 2 weapon mods, and an Aug Upgrade. When you f...

Re: Maan ShadowCode was flippin' tough.

I found the ShadowCode sequence mildly challenging, but certainly not over the top. Then again, I had the speed aug (my favorite) upgraded to the maximum which made a few puzzles a no-brainer. I thought the last bit with Shadow overlayed in your mind was very suspenseful. You guys really nailed that...

Re: Funny bug with NVShacker's spiderbot

LOL! This happened to me too. I was over by the checkout counter trying to figure out how to get that safe open. Then all of a sudden I hear some static crackles, turn around, and a random guy is on fire!

Emergent gameplay at its best!

Re: Silver Dragon hostile for seemingly no reason

Just wanted to report that this happened to me as well, but because I am fanatical about making multiple save slots, I was able to restore my game from just moments before and lead Silver Dragon out in a way that avoids this bug. I followed nearly the same sequence. I first cleared out a path for us...

Re: Is there any non-violent way to get AlphaOne's disk?

Actually that's all fine, you did indeed trigger that conversation prematurely, but that shouldn't cause any problems. Getting back into Sol's through the back is fine :) Is there any legitimate way, early in the game (i.e. before you access the subway the first time), to get into Sol's through tha...

Re: Is there any non-violent way to get AlphaOne's disk?

This is actually related to another bug that causes Sol's Bar to get shut down, not something intended -- it's just a side effect of some odd code that caused the game to think that someone had died. It shall be fixed in the next patch. Hey, you're HIM!!! :) Anyway, I just decided to pay the $1000 ...
