Maybe there's a good video on how to best handle em? They're visible when you stop moving. You only need to hold your breath when the thing is orange and spinning, you can move normally (crouched) while it's blue and clicking. If you make a noise and one notices you (the scanner will stop moving and just point all 4 fins in its direction) you aren't instantly boned, the PT is going to move toward where it heard you so just quietly move away from its handprints. If you need to take a breath while you're in orange spinning range stop moving before you release the trigger to get your stamina back. Usually won't notice you. lets hang out fucked around with this message at 01:00 on Nov 15, 2019 |

Figured I wouldn't use them once but they were a game changer.

You can charge up the bloodgun by holding the fire button. If you're plinking away with uncharged shots and wondering why the ghosts arent, uh, dying - try hitting them with a fully charged round.

I wonder if people would still do as many things if they knew they would never get likes for it I wonder if the game will ever ask that question If you know the answer, don’t post.

Why the hell would you stop the big bad's plan, then get a long explanation of their motivations? It's such an awkward way to do it.

Wolfsheim posted:Poking around SA games threads has led me to believe that PC gaming is exclusively used for either spending several hours getting 100 mods to work together without crashing every five minutes or waiting until a game is $5 on a steam sale, cheating yourself unlimited resources then dicking around for about an hour before never playing it again. I can spend time getting mods to work if I have fun doing it, and I can cheat a little if it overcomes a genuine problem, something most people agree is an issue, but I'm also a big believer in things being stressful or taking a long time for a reason. You could probably mod in a harvester in farming sim that covered the entire with of a field, but what the gently caress would be the point? I'm gonna mod MGSV a bit for my current playthorough, which will be my third or fourth, but that's because the resource/time management in that game is actually kinda borked, and because I've already overcome the challenge (several times).

Thanks for the BT tips. I am still pretty early, so I don't have any of the handy tools yet, but it does help to know I can see them if I am still whole I scan. I knew it'd worked before but wasn't sure why it wasn't showing their location every time I scanned. Appreciate it.

Staying crouched and keeping the spinner perpendicular to my path of travel got me through all the early BT areas no problem. That said, like others have posted, pushing to chapter 3 showers you in Anti-BT tools that trivializes them.

I knew it'd worked before but wasn't sure why it wasn't showing their location every time I scanned. The best general tip I got about this game was -- stick to the main story and don't go chasing general deliveries / side quests until you're into Chapter Three. Chapter Three is huge and throughout it you will get all kinds of tools for dealing with BTs, MULEs, and traversing the environment, which end up making the entire experience far more enjoyable.

Boy that trike you find in chapter two, I have abused the poo poo out of this thing. I foolishly assumed standard orders would run out but they seem to keep refreshing. gently caress it, time to deliver that aid. Also holy moly the first time you complete a 500+ player feedback single item delivery and get 8 levels in my unleveled upper star. What is it, binding?

Ehh, the 40 minute exposition over everything you learned about playing the game for 30 hours before was unnecessary and annoying. The part after that was cool though. It's a shame the main character doesn't get interesting until you're done with the game.

At the end of Chapter 7? I just delivered the cargo to the Chiral Relay but now I'm confused on what to do it just says Find a way to cross the tar belt. Die-Hardman's like you probably know how to already!... I don't tho? lmao what am I supposed to do at this point, I have to run all the way back and complete the safe house?

I know it's asking a lot, but even posting about the ending in vague terms is spoilery imo. Would appreciate more spoiler tags rather than less.

This got me stuck a bit too. Die Hardman will eventually suggest the solution and then immediately say “I never would have thought of that myself!” when you do it, which is funny. Hint: Think big stuff coming out of the ground during a key part of the game earlier, but not when you wanted it to happen. Spoiled: There’s some BTs near the shoreline on a little peninsula nearby. Let them grab and drag you down, then get ready to run like hell.

So I don't know entirely what the deal is with them but it looks like the gold 'drag you down' tar bodies just game over you instead of giving you a fight. That'll make clearing this area annoying.

Just finished after a pretty straight forward 40 hr playthrough. I don't know if the game was good but if you like it enough to make it through chapter 3 it's worth finishing. Incredibly ambitious and different. Having played through the last 4-5 chapters in one sitting the end was emotionally draining in a good way. I'll never touch the game again and probably uninstall tomorrow after listening to some songs again. One thing I don't quite remember Did Cliff have a similar cross/heal mark on his torso? Can't remember if I'm mixing Sam and Cliff. If so, how does that factor in story? Always figured he was beach only.
