Title: deus ex problem
Post by: Frisky SKeleton on December 13, 2009, 10:26:57 pm
so i reinstalled the game and it seemed like you held down the fire button and he'd automatically fire. now he doesn't!!! have i just remembered wrong or has something stupid happened? the game is old and full of bugs but i don't want to play through having to click the crowbar each time to swing it.

any insight?

yeah that is how i recall it too.  maybe you'll just have to deal

maybe it's a ubiquitous bug because i remember compared the swinging speed of the baton to the crowbar in the first little segment by holding down fire! maybe i'm inventing memories who knows

i don't remember it being like that at all! try the shifter mod if it's a problem, it fixes a lot of things.

What is black JC? I don't remember being able to choose your skin color at the beginning of the game. Is this a mod or am I remembering incorrectly? Or is it a feature from the future?????

You can choose the skin color before the game starts, there are two arrows under the portrait maybe you didn't see them?

i played as the ginger model first time through and felt like a dick. ginger slicked back hair, pale skin, sunglasses and a trenchcoat. i also maxed out his swimming because i had no idea how useless it would be for the rest of the game, but it was necessary to find some secret maybe

i'm going to try and be more wasteful this play through!

also does anyone have a nocd crack or something? i'm playing from an image, but the image is on a CD so it's just as irritating

i don't know how to use that very well but it looks like all they have is a playstation specific fix. also it just seems a fricken waste of space having essentially two copies of the game on the hd to pass a CD check

This topic reminded me to play Deus Ex again. I am up to the airfield in NYC just now. I saved it just before talking to Lebedev. I have the LAM set in preparation for a certain Bionic Cyborg's grand entrance...

The amount of political conspiracy garble in this game is still really impressive.

okay real deus ex problem: i got drunk ingame and it did that thing where it zooms in and shakes. now i'm sober and it hasn't zoomed out. so i'm stuck with this shitty field of view and i can't see anything and it's very difficult

leave the area. i got super drunk in that bar in new york and left the area and i was no longer drunk. then i went back in and i was drunk again. i'm playing now too though! this is the farthest i've ever gotten. jamie told me where to find the second versalife building but i can't find it!! how do i get to the second versalife building in hong kong?

do you mean into the lab? down where you shut off the universal constructor (??? don't remember) there's a hallway leading to some barracks and the rest of the lab. i ran straight past it.

HERE ARE SOME NEAT TRICKS I HAVE FOUND:
-don't waste skill points on lock picking or the multitool thing! while you're using one, press f1 and wait. the percentage will continue to decrease at the same speed while only using one tool
-at the level where you have to get onto the boat, pressing the button to raise and lower the ramp gives you 30 points each time. if you crack it with a multitool you can alternate between right clicking it and pressing escape to max out all your skills if you so wish
-when you're about to leave hong kong the doctor will be in a side room (if you asked him to come I'm guessing). he'll try and give you an aug container but if you're full already one drops to the floor and you can still talk to him. doing this you can max out your aug levels
-to make a large object only take up one space in your inventory, drag it off the screen and press I. other things you pick up go under it though but if you're savvy with the numbers you can sort it all out.
-with super strength and the dragonstooth sword you can wipe out cameras, turrets, and alarm pads manually
