how do you kill that dude that throws grenades at you on level 2

hes stood on a balcony ?

ive killed him about 10 times and he keeps reappearing

also when i got the fire throwing ability i accidentally saved it over the default electric one will this mess my game up ?

thanks

Either blag him with the shottie, or use the Telekenesis (sp?) plasmid to catch the grenades and throw em back at him.

Mind you he may keep appearing until you use his grenade to do something.

Easy, I think hes up to the bit where you need to use the Telekenesis to catch the nad and throw it at the door where the path is blocked to get through.

What settings are you guys using with the BIOSHOCK FOV Hack at 1920x1200 ???



(I posted this same question in the "Bioshock Technical Thread" as well...)

Did anyone else think "Wow." when they entered Fort Frolic?

I kinda wanna wait till I get my new monitor next week for 1680x1050 goodness and a slightly larger screen, so hard to resist playing though.

Does it work in Vista 64 Bit? I didn't notice anything when I used it and unsure of how to set it up .

Does it have to be running? I know it says it doesn't but I'm not sure.

Is that right for 1680*1050 , Anyone?.

 

[markyb]

Both should be set to 0.84 mate. Not 0.084.

Right you have to open the program put it the settings, leave it open run BioShock.

Load a game then press the "*" on Numpad to enable it, to make sure it's working press "/" on Numpad to turn it off, you should notice that it's less 'zoomed-in' when you enable it.

I'm not sure if you have to have it open or not, will try later I just leave it open for now.

0.833 appears to be nice on 16.10 screens

Yeah its the bit ive just done, but i didn't want to spoil it incase he didn't know he had to unblock the way with the nade.

Excellent thanks, I'll keep it running, not harming anything doing so.

Such a nice difference with the correct aspect, when not using your literally zoomed in .

I've just found out what happens between both endings, what a twist!

There's actually 3 endings. One for saving all the little sisters, one for harvesting them all, and one for a mix of both.

Shock --> Shoot ---> Repeat works on pretty much all of them.

 

[stinka]

slight problem there as i saved the fire over the shock one, so not an option for me ooops

Electric shells for the shotgun work nicely I've found, set them on fire as well for little bit of extra burning damage.

Come back once you find a gene bank then I found the first few quite hard, but you get the hang of it after 2-3 (plus you get better firepower)

 

[Squakingcow]

I found that on the first one you just have to jump on the counter and keep swapping sides while emptying lead into it

Freezing them doesn't do much though :/

You'll be able to swap the shock one back when you can't jump over the counter

According to wiki there is two.

killed a few now - my best strategy is to get one big daddy chasing me and lead him to another. The use the enrage plasmid on them both. I then sit back and watch them duke it out while I have a cup of tea. Tis bliss.

The last one standing usually has next to no health left and is finished off with a few shots to the head.

just did this and harvested two sisters in one go - easy peezy.
