So far so good. Game is fun. Mimics are bastards that hide in groups that all uncloak and attack you en mass. The first phantom I ran into dropped a anti-psi grenade, is that random? Seems like a higher-tier item for a time when you don't even have a proper gun yet. My first death came from wandering too far into the Medical Center and being lit on fire by a perpetually burning upgraded phantom. Knifegrab posted:Is it a safe bet to rush necropsy so I can fabricate more neuromods? Dunno, I haven't found a way to make neuromods yet and the extra lumps you get from the basic enemies are just vendor trash worth 0.05 units of all four materials.

So I found a guy named trevor j young in the talo lobby I's trauma center. He appears to be Mind controlled. I had the keycode and let him out and his Head exploded. Should I have left him there? Can I keep him alive, and should I?

Any weapons in particular stand out as worth upgrading? The shotgun seems like an obvious choice but its also pretty loving woefully bad against a Phantom and flaming Phantom I've run across in Trauma. Seems a shame to waste them if the weapons involved just end up being worthless and I don't have the inventory space for all of it. e: For that matter, both the stun and GLOO guns seem like they've got promise too.

Honestly so far the stun on the stun gun seems so long I don't even see a need to upgrade it, I used to to completely clown an enemy that was giving me a lot of trouble, just stunned him to death. I've been dumping my upgrades into shotgun, it seems to kill the poo poo out of everything easily, and sometimes knocks them down for easy wrenching too.

Just a heads up for anyone buying this for PC in Australia from a real shop, theres no game on this disc. It just has the steam installer thing and then you get to download 18gb on our amazing internet.

I have expected the code for the safe outside the simulation to be 0451 or some derivative thereof.

Game is good. Like, real good. The music is way less lovely than it was in the demo although still annoying, I turned it down to like 40% which has been nice.

That's some next level poo poo right there. They really have totally given up on retail.

They really have totally given up on retail. I haven't bought games in a retail store in ages so I'm a little out of touch there; Is the average pc game that is sold on a disk nowadays a bluray disk? Or is it still dvd? Because if it is the latter I wouldn't expect a game like prey to be somehow squeezed into it. Compression can do wonderful things but this goes a little beyond that.

How far is everyone into it? I'm wondering how weird it gets. I knew NOTHING about the game before the demo and now I'm wondering if, the alien invasion had anything to do with the aliens from the first Prey? Do you end up on another alien ship or anything of that nature? Or is it all confined to the Talos?

I've had a long week and I just wanted to relax with my new video game. Prey is good. Very good. loving great in fact. It's paranoia in video game format. Every beautifully crafted room is potentially full of things that want to eat me and it's not relaxing at all

I'm seeing a lot of enemies listed as being weak to fire, is there an actual fire-based weapon or grenade? Because in a game where the tougher enemies can take you from full health to dead in about 5 seconds (I actually timed it!), meticulously luring them over to a gas pipe and then breaking it does NOT seem practical. I'm enjoying the hell out of the game so far, doing a Human-only run. I have to say though, some of these enemies (Technopaths and the Telepaths I just met) are kind of giving me a run for my money. Still, there's nothing quite like crafting 10 Neuromods, realizing that I'm never going to use these 50 Psi Hypos I have and recycling them, and then crafting ANOTHER 10. Even without all the psi-options I feel like a kid in a candy store!

There's probably some e-mail about Tommy as a homage that makes its canon that Prey 2006 and 2017 are in fact the same universe  .

Prey is a very good game but man do I wish the person who was responcible for audio mixing knew what he was doing. Audio mixing problems are the only thing that annoys me in this game but they're bad enough to constantly take me out of it.

Other than I wish you could bind more than one button per action and that it was possible to rebind the ability wheel button.

On PC this game controls perfectly. The UI is also very good, probably the best the -shock genre ever had.

Loving this game so far, although the fact that so many things are recyclable is really bringing out the worst of survival horror in me. I tend to grab up every scrap I can find and run it back to my office to recycle constantly.

Protip: Don't go crazy with Neuromods just because you have some to spend, at some point in the story your upgrade trees will get more skills to buy.

Actually, I know that the game has just come out but has anyone found any really good or really bad things to spec into? I have been going the hacking/engineering route but some of the stuff seems situational.
