*****Official Deus Ex 3: Human Revolution discussion thread*****

I'm still on no kills (I hope), I guess 2/3rds of the way through the game (just got back to Detroit).

That's where i am, just been to the convention centre.

It would be nice if there was just one more hub to look forward to:(

Possible spoilers

I have just done the mission where you go after Sanderveld in the sewers but i couldn't get in without triggering alarms(had no emp grenades). When i entered he was on the phone calling for backup, if you do not trigger any alarms, do you catch him by suprise? would be cool if you did

He is just wandering around if you catch him by surprise - nothing interesting

Yeah i just wondered if the cutscene is different depending on how you get in there

Just completed it - got the achievement for no alarms! :) not for no kills though?? Seems the Tranq gun can sometimes kill people... which I only just discovered... so lame!

Are you sure the tranq gun can kill people and that you just didn't perhaps kill someone at the start of the game (before you get any non-lethal weapons or access to takedown/augs)? I'm trying to go for it on my 2nd play through and been using the tranq gun a lot, hopefull none have died if what you say is true.
 
No Pacifist or Foxiest of the Hounds for me :(

What the hell was with the LIMB clinic in the final level?!

Lol @ the Megadeth reference with the Hangar 18 achievement. I finished needing 6 praxis points to completely fill the grid.

Loving the reference to Half Life. The whole train ride at the beginning.

Nope, never used anything but silent takedowns, tranq and stun gun - even talked the guy out of euthanasia - only time i used guns were the bosses...

Never used turrets to kill anyone or anything - just check when you've tranq'd them that they are ZZZ not Skulls... LOADS of people reporting same thing...

Just started a lethal play through on hard... SO MUCH EASIER!

It could be the intro or it could be an accidental death caused by a bot explosion or it could just be weird ways of attributing a death to you.

I'm gonna go for a zero contact playthrough anyway. Absolutely no KO's or kills bar bosses so I'll have to avoid sidequests that involve it and sneak in to everything.

No explosions took place though, even mines were disarmed...

I am telling you, they went down from a Tranq, Silent Takedown or Stun Gun, or I left them... no if/butts/maybe - I was meticulous of this fact.

Etc...

I obviously assumed tranq would only knock them out - but it can kill people; just wish I had known - hadn't really notices the Skull / Zzz symbol :(

Not doing it again, so alas... what can one do!
 
Would be nice if there was a way to check if I'm still on track for pacifist so I can give up now if I have infact killed someone.
 
lol just bought a cd key for steam for deux ex , off ebay and hes saying after i paid for it it is region locked and needs my username and password plus for me to de-active steam guard so he can give me the game, must think i a f*in idiot or summat.

well you did buy a steam cdkey off ebay... lol
 
Did you even THINK about what you said then?

You regenerate to a maximum of 1 bar. ANY augmentation that uses energy will immediately prevent you using a takedown which funnily enough uses 1 bar without having to use energy bars. You cannot use Run Silent and still have enough energy to do a takedown, nor can you use Cloak or Smart Vision and given that I'm using takedowns on almost everyone, I can't start chugging bars every other kill.


You're going to get answers like mine if you specify. You said it takes a bar up, not that it make you unable to use the last. Do not assume I will assume the correct answer in your head ;).

Thing is, I again never had a problem with using a bit of my last bar, I just position myself and timed things so that I could wait for it to fill up.
Although I should go on to clarify myself, as a stealth player why WOULDN'T you get the silent running ? There are countless times you can use it without needing the last bar of energy for a takedown. :|

You make it sound like you wouldn't get it because it uses energy, rather than seeing the point in it's other uses.
Just like that screenshot where the extra running distance hasn't been taken, that's just masochism!! :p
 
Seems to be syncing them with steam cloud but not 100% on that - guess there must be a local location if the game works in offline mode just turned off my gaming PC for the night tho so can't check.
 
Hey guys, just started playing this and I am on the first mission. I decided to go non lethal and close range, so I got the stun gun.

At the start of the level the tutorial told me about lethal (hold MB1) and none lethal (tap MB1) take downs at close range and showed me animations of Adam knocking the guy out or stabbing him. However when I try it (get close so the context sensitive prompts appear on screen) Adam just uses his stun gun on them.

How do I melee the guy instead of using the stun gun?
