I need to clean mine up. I got a bit of an itchy finger when it comes to saving sometimes.
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!
Yeah incredibly irritating isn't it. I did the same thing, although set off one alarm
. Have you got a near the end save I can pinch...?

Still enjoying my first playthrough with a random mix of stealth and shooting. Next play through will be completely stealth and no kills.

I've only just completed the first Boss bit. I thought it was a bit anti-climatic to be honest. I was expecting him to be there later in the game, as shown in the original trailers. Unless he is, and I'm yet to find out.. Hey no spoilers - don't tell me.
Of course, and going by the XBox360 achievements list you get an achievement for it. But you can only do it guns blazing, I tried quickly going around, lobbing gas grenades, takedowns and stun gun but it wasn't enough. I wasn't even halfway through the enemies.
And play it again you noob
The question is do I do a zero contact play or do I play stealth assassin (and run out of pistol ammo at some point)...

Goddamnit. I'm playing a stealth/no kills/no alarm 1st time playthrough on hard and I didn't know that killing the soldiers in the prologue before getting your augs counts against the pacifist achievement.
I've just got to China and am near the penthouse you have to go to on the first mission there.
So, restart or just carry on and kill everyone for lulz?

I saved Malik the other day. Was quite easy. Almost fully upgrade pistol, two headshots on the big guys, and headshotting everyone else, she made it away. Use the barrels to kill people too by shooting them. I don't think I got hit once as I put cloak on and just killed people.
The pistol is lethal once upgraded, silenced and with a laser

Pistol is insane, but I always liked using my revolver with explosive ammo.
I find it quite odd on Hard Setting that you don't get an aiming reticule. It's also annoying that it doesn't highlight usable items. Mainly only because I'm forced to run Dx9, so the quality of some textures is really bad and its hard to pick out things.
On the note of usable items as well; I'm somewhat disappointed that not everything in the environment is usable. Eg fax machines, printers, etc. And there aren't any basketballs around to throw at desk sergeants.

I agree more of the environment should be usable, for example if I have a shootout in a lab It would be nice to see test tubes and bits of equipment shatter and be knocked all over the place, and bits of clutter in the environment that can be effected by the phsyics engine just like boxes.
As for the not highlighting objects in hard, I like that, I found it WAY to easy knowing whever every little place to break a wall or vent was, its nice to have some stuff hiden to make the player actully pay attention to the surroundings.
