I thought this, and i'd like to know if you can, couldn't find a key or button for it..

Agreed about game becoming confusing as well, and its rock hard to not alert anyone. I want to go through and not kill anyone, but its really tricky..

Fantastic game, but I can see many getting frustrated and I'm still looking at the graphics and thinking its sooo last gen, then remember its the style of the game..

Hold down 'F' to holster your weapons. If you're using a controller it should be the button to open/close doors and pick stuff up. Only figured this out by accident!

Bioshock was a good game, but it was "just" a shooter. You did not really have much choice there. Dishonored is lot more ambitious, and it suceeds in that ambition.

I know about this, but I wanted to know how to holster only one weapon and keep sword out.
But it is a nonissue once you get powers, like Blink. Then you have only sword equipped, so it is all good.

You did have quite a lot of choice in bioshock, electricity, fire, telekinesis amongst the other powers and could use the powers on the environment i.e. electrocuting the water with enemies standing in it, throwing explosive canisters, setting enemies on fire and then throwing them against other enemies and they then get set on fire.

The graphics are nothing to go on, that's for sure. But I'm hitting a solid 120FPS @ 975Mhz core, 39'C - the gameplay is very smooth. I think I'm going to like this game.

For anyone who has triple screen and finds the FOV terrible the flawless widescreen application fixes it already!

Reading through the last few pages I'm quite surprised to see the mixed reaction this game is getting, I expected more excitement after seeing all the great reviews flood in. Still tempted to get it but not as much as I was.

The only mods I have found at the mo to tweak the graphics are changing the FOV, hide HUD and increasing the shadow resolutions. Still no texture mods that I can find.

The textures are very 'simple', we are not talking Crysis here, more like a console game. That said, the game still has a great 'style' to it and the level designs are good. Just dont expect to be blown away by the graphics.

Nice pics.

Is SweetFX considered the best Injector to use at the moment on games?

There are so many different types of AA injector, I just get confused.

I believe SweetFX uses SMAA.

But you also have injectors for FXAA, MLAA, MSAA. Whats the difference between them all????

I have just got to the first proper "assassination" mission and I am loving it. Probably one of the best games I have played this year so far. Might even finish this one!

ss-89 can you post your sweetFX config if possible?

Game is seriously **** me off, throw a bottle in the distance behind them and instead of the enemies turning around they turn in your direction??

They also have unlimited throwing grenades and cocktails.

If they see the bottle flying they'll look at you, just like if you fire a dart past their ear they know where it came from.

Purchased it yesterday, delivery due on Friday... Let's see if I get it on time, I have all of next week off to do nothing in particular with as well!

umboma · 11 Oct 2012 at 09:59

not sure about this game, So it might be a sale purchase not a day one for me.

no_1_dave · 11 Oct 2012 at 10:46

Game of the year for me.
I don't know why some people just run through it, they can't enjoy playing it like that can they?
I've just finished the first proper mission & that one mission alone took me just over 3 hours. I'm playing a silent assassin though so if someone sees me I reload the quick save

Erm, if you're throwing a bottle past them, they'll know the direction in which it's coming from.

Still not sure about this at the moment...

Trying to play it how I like, but the game is constantly reminding me that I am making it bad???

I just want to be a sneaky killer! No maps, no quest description... Just feel... Lost and confused most of the time. Still totally unconnected from the story and my character. Killed the twins last night.

Nothing special for me so far and I LOVED Bioshock...
