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.

DoctorGonzo posted:they fixed the controls? I haven't played the console demo and I'm playing with kb+m on PC, so I dunno about the differences. Haven't had any problems with the controls though. Other than I wish you could bind more than one button per action and that it was possible to rebind the ability wheel button.

Bardeh posted:Why is the music and scary 'enemy is nearby' stuff SO LOUD? It feels like it's notched two or three degrees too high and it's really getting on my nerves. Because the person who was in charge of audio balancing doesn't know how to do his job properly. For real, it's my biggest problem with the game. It annoys me so much.

I am incredibly glad to see that Arkane Studios haven't broken their streak of amazing games. May they never make a game that isn't great. For the love of everything that is holy, please fix audio mixing in Prey. I beg of you.

I usually hate "horror" games, especially the ones that excessively jump scare you but somehow I not only don't mind Prey but I kinda like how tense the game is. I think it's probably because most "jump scares" in Prey aren't scripted to be unavoidable. I can be proactive about not getting spooked by being observant, since mimics have a whole bunch of tells.

thebardyspoon posted:OK how do you open the doors that are blocked by loads of planks of metal? I tried a recycling charge as soon as I got them but it didn't do anything so I assumed it was some gadget I'd get a bit later. Then I saw someone use one in a gif I think and it worked. Just tried it again with the grenade right under the planks and it did nothing. Am I missing something or what? I was wondering the same thing. Haven't found any way to open those doors. Always had to go around them.

Theris posted:I haven't had time to play yet, but I pre-ordered based on loving Dishonored, and it sounds like that was the correct choice. I did check out metacritic user reviews just to see what non-goons have to say and it's overwhelming positive, too. The handful of bad reviews are kind of funny, though, since they all fall into one of four categories: That's how you know that the game is actually good.

I bet they're thrashing around in fits of autistic rage over the fact that you can be a femYu as well. Their tiny little brains cannot even understand how a woman can be the protagonist of any story what so ever without needing help from a man. So pathetic.

Rookersh posted:Hacking ironically seems pointless. Enough notes around to just know the login info, and hacking to me feels like it pulls away from the exploration which is the best part of tbe game. Sure you can hack the door, or you can find the guy who actually has the key two zones away and Metroidvania back to open it. I did found some safes that could only be opened by hacking unfortunately (they didn't even let you input a code), so that's not really the case.

Panic! at Nabisco posted:So I see this is being billed as a horror game, but what I'm hearing (and seeing from earlygame streams) is that it isn't really very scary; mimics are kind of cute, even. I'm a big pussy when it comes to scares and Prey doesn't jump scare you often but I find it incredibly tense. I'm more constantly on edge about the potential of every physics jump scaring me.

You fast travel by going outside of the station and flying in space between airlocks. You'll get a tutorial of sorts for that later on if you haven't gotten there yet.

JESUS loving CHRIST! The game suddenly hit me with an EXTREMELY loud music sting that startled the poo poo out of me and literally *nothing* happened. I stood still waited for a good minute, recovering from that. Nothing. Incidentally, you can totally tag enemies even without a Psychoscope. It can be useful if you want to sneak around an enemy and want to "see" them through walls. Jack Trades fucked around with this message at 12:57 on May 8, 2017 |

bewilderment posted:So how screwed will I be if I decide to ignore the main plot leading me into Psychotropics, and instead go through the Volunteer Quarters to wherever the hell that leads? I like exploring but I don't want to go too far if I don't have an easy way back. Explore everywhere. The game is even better if you do what you fell like doing instead of just blindly following directions.

I have to give Arkane props for making Psychoscope having enough disadvantages to make it impractical to have it on all the time. It's a pet peeve of mine. I hate it when "batman vision" or whatever is strictly better.

Palpek posted:I don't know if everybody gets that but there's this one fabricator with an item stuck in it that you can't directly pick up and when you turn it on to get it it turns into a mimic. That jumpscare is practically after you pick up the Psychoscope with Mimic Finder chip and just lol if you're not creeping around at the speed of a snail everywhere, using it so that you wouldn't get jumpscared by a mimic ever again.

I imagine that a No Neuromods runs would probably try to skip as much combat as possible and just get the fastest possible ending.

I got 60 Organic Material and every fabrication plan that I have that uses Organic Material also uses Metal and I see no reason to use metal to craft anything other than more Neuromods. Are there any useful plans later on that use organics but not metal?
