Bugs / Dialogue Attack Option

« on: May 16, 2013, 04:17:46 am »

So I was going through the SGS base (or whatever the acronym is, I don't even know what it stands for) and I went through a trap door into a dialogue segment with 2 bandits (or looters, or whatever) holding a man hostage.

I realized I likely wouldn't be able to talk them out of it, so I decided it would be smartest to take the initiative so I clicked attack.

They got initiative.

Let me get this straight, I chose to suddenly attack them at a time of my own volition and THEY get to attack first?

This is a bug.

Suggestions / Omni-Tool

« on: May 15, 2013, 07:50:34 am »

Okay, I used the Omni-Tool in the demo and it was totally swell... so either the demo had no requirements for using it or I wasn't even aware I fulfilled any requirements.

I didn't get the impression at all that the Omni-Tool required any skills to use it. I assume that the associated skill is lockpicking, because my hacking/mechanical skills are quite high.

I would appreciate it if the info in the Omni-Tool description was changed so that it states that it's actually a skill-associated tool. Thanks.

Suggestions / Burst Trajectory

« on: May 15, 2013, 05:42:55 am »

I was using the Burst ability, because I was getting overrun with Rathounds, and I was pretty confident that the enemy I was shooting was directly in front of another one... but the following shots didn't hit the one behind him.

I'm kind of hesitant to use the ability again since I don't seem to be able to predict the trajectory...

If there were some kind of visible trajectory it'd make the ability far more usable.

Just noticed the crowbar has no durability despite other melee weapons having durability.

Bugs / Path-Finding through Unexplored Areas

« on: May 15, 2013, 02:10:47 am »

I've noticed that when I am looking at the other side of a closed fence with a back entrance (that I've never seen) my character still knows EXACTLY how to get there. Enemies seem to be the same way, which would be excusable if it was just a single fence and they knew the area, but they actually instinctively know that a back entrance has opened that was closed before, despite not having seen it happen.

The fix would probably be: don't let path-finding function through unexplored areas and if a door was closed the last time someone saw it, that someone's path-finding shouldn't lead through it normally.

Bugs / Saving Taking really Long?

« on: May 14, 2013, 08:06:34 pm »

I just came from the demo and bought the alpha on Desura, it isn't working on my desktop so I've started playing on my laptop.

I don't recall exactly how long it took to save during the demo, but I know that it was at least 5 times faster than saving in the alpha seems to be.

Anything I can do about this? : /

EDIT: I reinstalled and got the game working on my Desktop, it seems it's just my laptop where saving takes a while.

Bugs / Computer Stops Responding on Startup

« on: May 14, 2013, 04:10:39 am »

I enjoyed the demo a lot so I went ahead and bought it on Desura, but when I try to play it it opens a window with nothing in it and EVERYTHING on my entire computer stops responding. I can't open anything and ctrl+alt+del does nothing. I can mouse my mouse but clicking things doesn't elicit a response.

I tried opening in administrator mode to no avail, I'm a little hesitant about trying again...

What is going on?

General / Restoring Psi

« on: May 13, 2013, 12:36:32 am »

I'm under the impression that I'm missing something about Psi.

I used Psi abilities twice and my Psi-meter hasn't refilled since then.

Is there some way to, like healing, have someone/something auto-restore it?

Or do they sell large quantities of the psi-restoring items and I just haven't noticed?

P.S. I'm in the demo if that affects anything.

General / Using a Crowbar

« on: May 12, 2013, 07:40:48 pm »

I found a crowbar (after I shot someone who was holding it) and I noticed it had the additional ability of forcing open ventilation shafts.

I've been fiddling around with it to no avail- how do I use it?

General / Adding/Removing Items from the Barter Window Quickly?

« on: May 12, 2013, 07:16:06 pm »

Is there a way to quickly add or remove items from the barter window? It's really tedious to click and drag each item, one after the other...

BTW, I am playing the demo, if that changes anything.

Bugs / Question - Windows

« on: May 12, 2013, 07:05:22 pm »

Are windows meant to be indestructible?

I attacked some Rathhounds and hid in a small building where I closed the door and intended to shoot them from the windows... but I just don't seem to have the option to shoot them or the windows.

I posted this in bugs because it MIGHT be considered a bug and general said "don't post bugs here".

Bugs / Bug - Explosive Barrel

« on: May 12, 2013, 05:30:10 pm »

I was really proud of myself when I lured over some Rathhounds and then got all 3 of them with an explosive barrel without getting hit once... then I realized an explosive barrel killing them didn't give me any experience!

Sorry if the demo is just behind and this bug has been fixed, but if it hasn't I wanted to bring it to your attention. Thanks.
