CHEGG

Turin Turambar posted:

Gritty cyberpunk setting? It slaps:



mustn't forget the Synthwave Room



currently frustrating myself into oblivion getting 836 or 837 kills out of 838 on Vector-4; game still owns and I need to go back through on Murder Machine now that the completion achievements are fixed

turbo tips:

-the AoE on the Waster's secondary fire is much, much larger than it appears
-you can CHEGG in any direction
-you can jump while CHEGGing
-all of the following weapons are rocket jump capable: Waster secondary, Boomer primary(and secondary but it's way less practical), Launcher(deals minor damage), Telefragger charge shot
-you can also rocket jump off of Security Drones if you land on them before you dome them; this is usually the easiest way to kill them all
-the Grappling Hook works on every enemy
-you can cancel the Boomer primary's reload by swapping weapons, and fire it almost as quickly as the Waster
-there are Syntech Portals all over every level, not just after the upgrade appears in Episode 3


I also especially liked the obvious Knight Rider inspiration in the hoverbike level

One day I will replay the game but instead of upping the difficulty, I want to try to limit myself to not use the chainsaw slide (as much as possible), I suspects it will play very differently.

:same:

I haven't found any secret level, any help with that?

All the secret levels are unlocked by collecting all three tapes in each normal level. Steam has a pretty good guide for the tapes & chips.

post-Chapter 1 Murder Machine impressions: Grizzlers are a god drat menace and need to be put down from a safe distance with maximum prejudice

Sloths become much more dangerous as well

Grizzlers are the mooks with triple plasma shots & glowy triangle heads

Hit Tab for the codex with all the enemies, guns, audio logs, tooltips, etc. Those guys are called Syn-Taurs.

There's a spot where Free Your Mind is really easy to get, in Terminal Eclipse. After you go through the first teleporter, you'll be in an arena with a grapple point on either side. It's simple to jump back & forth between those.

honestly it should be a piece of cake in any arena where you can Syntech Portal around

I got all the level achievements as they came, but they must have been bugged for a long time. The completion achievements were bugged until just yesterday.
