victrix posted:Is this just odd phrasing of 'there's a game over state here early' or is it actually some sort of endless loop of failure with no possible progression? The former. Make sure you can pay rent for the first two days of the game. IIRC they added an actual early game over scene now, before the game just wouldn't progress and you'd have to start over.

I remember being able to hover over a skill check and seeing what your roll would be for it. Did they remove that? e: Maybe it's not available in Hardcore mode.

Yeah Evrart will hand you a comically oversized check which you can cash in IIRC but I don't remember how to argue the price down with Garte, is there a skill requirement for it? e: I think I missed it this time because I passed the check to run away from him.

Megazver posted:I can't even start the game after the update. Sigh. Yeah I've run into quite a few bugs. Lots of voice lines bugging out, playing in the wrong spots or just not playing at all. Also as I mentioned earlier, I appear to have triggered some part of the ultra vision quest because I keep getting prompts to ask Sileng about networth even though I don't have the related thought and haven't really picked any of those options.

I'm trying to get the Honor Cop achievement and I'm following this guide but some of the honor options aren't actually giving me points. Wondering if they broke this with Final Cut, since I also didn't get the Honor Cop thought after passing the minimum threshold.

Looks like I needed a minimum of 4 in Authority to actually get some of these Honour points to register.Ra Ra Rasputin posted:So, hardcore mode, yay or nay? Starting out is a little rough because there's less medicine and money lying around. Eventually you will pick up enough to make it through. Wompty Dompty Dom Centre is really powerful and basically alleviates any money issues you'd have but you can't get it until day 3. You get extra XP, but the checks are all harder, so I've been using more drugs than I ever did in my core runs. I've had savescumming at a bare minimum and it's not too hard to just roll with the failures most of the time. On day 4 now and healing and money aren't really an issue now.

No Mods No Masters posted:It isn't removed, it just requires a passive check from a yellow skill to be interactable. It confused me as well since I'm doing a 1 motorics playthrough for final cut. Similarly you also can't do the footprint analysis at the crime scene. It's actually a little goofy that so much visual calculus stuff is apparently gated behind yellow skills I get a perception check telling me I can't concentrate because I can feel the broken window below me. I guess it's to avoid the pre-Final Cut scenario where you could do it early but then it doesn't go anywhere until the end of the game.

ShakeZula posted:I've savescummed twice so far in my first playthrough, and I have no regrets: first was to make the jump to get my coat and get into the harbor, because I wanted that coat and I thought I didn't have enough time left to wait and steal an ID, and second was when listening to the headphones in the church, because it wouldn't let me progress the quest dialogue any further without it. Stealing the ID doesn't help you get in anyway.

sean10mm posted:I think I found the problem, at least for me: I had turned off steam overlay. I turned it on, loaded an old save and completed the commie vision quest and got the achievement. Unfortunately this doesn't retroactively give you achievements for your save's stats. Like all the times I said commie stuff and I AM THE LAW. I already have overlay on and can't get this one to pop. I wonder if there's a hidden stat check or something involved, or this save is just broken. e: nvm looks like I have to pass all the dialogue checks and exhaust all the dialogue with Steban.

Proletarian Mango posted:If I have a meeting with the young Communards at 22:00 but Evart also set up a meeting with the Pigs at the same time, and I hosed or can I still get to both? I would go for the Pigs first then the other. When I had both at the same time but did the Communards meeting it ran until almost 2:00 and I couldn't get the Pigs to spawn. That said I don't believe there is a time limit for either so you could do one, wait until 22:00 the next day and do the other.

ShakeZula posted:So, has anyone managed to get the trophy/achievement for the fascism vision quest? It seems like it's locked behind an extremely steep Endurance red check (one whose odds don't change even when I add 3 to my total Endurance score). Am I missing something on how to get it to pop? If it's like the Communism one then yeah you'll have to pass all associated checks with the quest.

World War Mammories posted:there's a MOT passive check when you first interact with Kim's car that's probably related that enables toying with the radio presets. think it's interfacing, not sure I had no idea this was possible and I *just* wrapped up a high motorics playthrough.

Gonna agree with the others here that Perception is actually really good. It's also really easy to raise with thoughts; my current run only has a 1 in Motorics but I have Perception at 5 thanks to the thought cabinet.

That achievement is judged entirely by your good/bad cop meter. Being nice to Kim or just acting professional/not a dick to other people will get you +1, along with figuring out parts of the case like finding the bullet early gives you +2 while picking crazy/rear end in a top hat options like punching Measurehead or talking down to Leo, accepting bribes etc gets you -1 points. You need +10 to be Kim's best friend.

If you want to have your tie talk to you you need to start with at least Inland Empire 4 IIRC. If it's not talking to you immediately it will never do that, so if that's your goal then you should restart immediately.

Yeah IIRC most skill passives require a minimum initial investment of 4 to really start being chatty and that 1 point difference won't change much. Heck just inverting your first choice and going 2/2/4/4 would produce a pretty different experience. The biggest differences IMO are x/4/4/x. The psy and fys skills are very chatty passives especially shivers and espirit de corps.

Professor Wayne posted:I just finished this game last night, and here are my thoughts today after digesting for a bit. I'm sure all of this has been discussed already, because I wait for Steam sales and am always late to the game. Aside from the relevant stats for the checks, whether or not you believed in the phasmid/got the pheremone spray affects the success on those checks. Otherwise it just scurries away immediately, but it always shows up. I think if you pass the Empathy check with Cuno and talk to him enough you can get him to tell you the deal with Cunoesse.

Doccykins posted:as far as I can remember the absolute required pass or fail-3-times after boosting checks are Authority against Titus to get to Klassje, Shivers to get into the Feld building and either Suave Faire to jump across to get your coat or Physical Instrument to spin kick Measurehead to get into the harbour. You also need enough Authority to warn Kim at the tribunal so he doesn't get shot if you want that bit That last one is a red check; it's cannot be tried again without savescumming. They added an alternate route past the shivers check which uses encyclopedia.
