question about ss2

[Kamakazie]

lol, that assault rifle uses the same ammo as the pistol.

Yeah, the maintenance and inventory thing was a pain in the ***. I got 6 Str pretty quick cause I got tired of running out of damn space. And about the ammo, learn to use the wrench! It'll get you far once you do. Thing with the AI though is it became pretty predictable, which is why the game was not OMG SCARY to me (I played it on Normal). I was more scared in FarCry than I was in this game... all that flora!.. so hard to see ****.

I'm not sure what was worse, the cyborg midwifes or those bloody monkeys. I still get chills down my spine whenever I here a monkey screech no thanks to System Shock 2.

The biggest scare I got was on the operations deck (Level 4 of sorts), but I won't ruin it for new players .

Well I did play Deus Ex before playing SS2 and I was trying to use my DX tactics in SS2. In DX, Master Hacker/Sniper was EZ Mode. So I went the hacker route (OSI right?) in SS2 and tried to hack all the turrets and stuff. Except in DX, you can usually sneak into some secret room where the control terminal is for the turrets, etc. In SS2 though, for some reason you have to bull charge each turret and hack them point blank while they are shooting you for the most part.

Oh and we should probably mention somewhere in this thread that SS2 is abandonware now right? You can get it from certain places (I wont specify where in case SF has some kind of policy against that stuff).

It's cool as long as you don't paste the link. Other wise just say underdog.

Yeah that was great cartoon...perhaps the new movie will lead to a game?

Navy is the hacker route. To hack the turrets and not need to charge them and hope not to die you need to hack the floor security first and get it turned off temporarily, then you can approach in safety.

Technically SS2 isn't abandonware, EA holds the rights to the series.

Yeah, I was about to say, you have to hack the security first to hack the turrets safely! lol... There's this one log though on the engineering deck that showed this lady tried hacking the turrets while they were active. Needless to say, her body was right next to it...
