I see that this game has a wrench. Is it the Best Weapon, in keeping with tradition?

I seem to be stuck. I'm supposed to talk to January, but I don't have a map marker and can't find it. My marker points to Psychotronics (I don't remember receiving this quest, but I have it) but I need the keycard. Edit: OK found him now. The Lone Badger fucked around with this message at 02:48 on May 6, 2017 |

I'm finding Metal to be my main resource limitation. Possibly because I keep using it for shotgun shells though?

Can anyone help me reach Josh Dalton? I can see him, but there's not quite enough room to squeeze through this opening (the pipe takes it all up). I can enter the pipe, but it goes somewhere completely different. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=920157439

cheesetriangles posted:What if you just never watch the video in your office. Like can you majorly sequence break the game by doing that. Then get into psychotronics thru Nerf gun hack? The nerf gun only gets you into the outer office, you need the keycard for the zone-transition door. Thanks for the tip about metal, I'm now drowning in it to the point where plastic is the limiting factor instead. Is there any way to gets the communications unit without Repair 3? I can't see any other way to get this door open.

ymgve posted:I think the silent pistol is the best so far. Ammo is relatively cheap to manufacture and you get the blueprints for it in like in a dozen different places (While I've yet to find a single Q-beam ammo blueprint), gets boosted by the "security" neuromod, and doesn't have the insane damage dropoff that the shotgun has. At medium range, it feels like two or three pistol shots do more damage than a single shotgun blast. It shoots insanely fast too. Especially useful with Combat Focus. I think there's only one q-beam ammo blueprint, at the end of the related quest chain.

Fairly spoiler-y If I'm understanding correctly, Transtar brought up 'volunteers' from Earth and had mimics kill them so they would multiply, then harvested the mimics for the exotic material needed to make neuromods for sale. Why not feed the mimics on animals, or bring up cadavers from earth and have the Weaver turn them into Phantoms?

bewilderment posted:I have heard there is a double jump. Is there a way to get it early? Sort of. In theory. It's on a corpse outside the station, which you could reach from the first time you space walk. But finding it without a quest-pointer would be really difficult. You can get the quest pointer once you reach Deep Storage.

Radaway used organics and no metal, but it uses all of 1 organics so basically you will never run out of it.

The big wave of military operators was really not very scary against someone with 3 ranks of Combat Focus and a maxed-out Disruptor.

DreamShipWrecked posted:Technically speaking it's easier to get to your brain through your eye. Although it looks gruesome, there are no nerve endings in your eye so you won't really feel the pain there. I guess the needles close up the wound coming back out? Hell if I know. The eye is squishy, so you can in fact get past it and into the brain without needing to pierce the eyeball. This is how they used to do lobotomies.

I just assumed Morgan's position in Neuromod Development allows him access to the entire Transtar connectome database, so once he has a neuromod injector loaded with exotic material he can flash the firmware with whatever connectome he wants to load into himself.

Why are these people acting like blowing up the station will stop the Typhon? They were around long before the Soviet space program encountered one and will be around long after Talos 1 is dust. Killing this particular nexus of Typhon activity won't deal with all the ones who have already scattered into other orbits, or the ones who have been floating around the system since before humanity evolved.

Why do they think blowing up the station will stop Typhon from getting to earth when the apex could literally just fly there? Is it possible to scan the Apex? I only managed to scan the tendrils.

Lakbay posted:Evacuation and Ending Chat Since the whole thing is a sim to test a typhon/human hybrid, is it possible the Evacuation is the Typhon invasion of Earth that was implanted into the sim? The data on it is super vague and I don't remember if there's any dates on any of the text or audio logs Sarah was a veteran of the Evacuation and it's discussed during her psych evals, so it happened before the Talos 1 incident.

I would have liked a little more variety. Like an old battle rifle a veteran smuggled aboard, or a gloogun modified into an etherthrower by desperate scientists (like a flamethrower except it disintegrates things).

poo poo appears to go down while you're unconscious after the test. Things good together long enough to says reassuring emails and take the corpse to the psychotronics morgue, but by the time you wake up everyone's dead.

RatHat posted:The one that came up with the nullwave was the original Morgan wasn't it? Oldest Morgan, yes. In October he began the tests, and left a note about how a giant Nullwave should be able to fix any problems. In December he started getting worried about whether they'd let him out of the simulation next time and came up with an escape plan. By January he was starting to freak out about the Typhon and came up with plan: everything explodes.

Kurzon posted:How much does a neuromod cost? Does it cost more than a four year college degree? That depends. How much do you value each year of your life at? (IE, for a normal student studying is probably waaaay cheaper than neuromodding. But if you're paying someone 10 million a year it might be cheaper to rewire their brain than to send them on a course.)

DancingShade posted:They're literally hand made on a space station by artisans. Bespoke neuromods. Also they require human sacrifice. But isn't the fabrication of the actual disposable injector just a matter of 'press button, receive neuromod' at a fabricator? Developing new connectomes is a lot of work, but there's no handcrafting involved on the physical units.

GRINDCORE MEGGIDO posted:Stun gun! Or Q-Beam. Operators are resistant to bullets (pistol and shotgun) because of their metal chassis, but Science! goes right through it. Note that upgrading the Q-beam can make it much more ammo efficient. It always loads 100 cells at a time, extending the firing time means it fires for longer using those same 100 cells.
