What are some ideal builds for first playthroughs?
Tryed gong commando thinking that is was the basic bitch jack of all trades build and i got railed by everything.

Marine guns and wrench build

this is what im doing right now so who knows

Wrench with the wrench

The AS is the most powerful thing in the game IIRC, so gunz work well enough.

the OST is so fucking good, honestly it single handedly got me into techno.

I used to replay this game with a healthy dose of gun maintenance until I realized psi is worth it alone for anti entropy field. Fuck gun repair, I'll just hotkey my wizard spell that makes nothing break.

Do you think SS2 would be scarier with the modern HD graphics or not?
Like, if everything stays the same but with, like, Doom 2016 level graphics

depends on if you find dead space 1 scary

I think it was worse knowing that they are always coming after you at anytime more than the encounter.

I don't think it would be scarier and I don't know if I would enjoy it as much. I still really like the first Silent Hill and sometimes the older graphics help give it a unique feel.

git gut

I have 68 cyber modules and Im on deck three. what do I invest in?

Dump it all into maintenance

I did a psy melee build on my first playthrough and it was completely busted for sure.
I was playing on HARD and I guess the first 3 hours were a bit tough but then I was literally cruising jumping around in levels one-hitting everything with the based Wrench.
You get powers for almost everything. Run faster, hit harder, hack easier. Eventually I would go invisible and start running through a level so fast I was constantly hitting walls and if I accidentally jumped I would take fucking FALL DAMAGE.
I basically pooled all my ressources into psy hypos and I had infinite healing, infinite energy on demand, speedhacks and onehitting every single mob.
My only mistake is that one time I ditched the Wrench for the laser rapier, and started to get butt-fucked by spiders, so I had to backtrack to get the Wrench back and then cruised to the end of the game. Honestly never had such a feeling of going from Prey to Predator so quickly. I remember shitting myself the first hour and then before I realized it's like the game turned into doom or something.

did you have any cyber modules left over for other things? what os upgrades did you take?

Start liftin' bro. With some muscle your wrench is a weapon of mass destruction.

The two melee ones (one is just a percentage increase, other gives you an overhead attack which was overkill for most of the enemies except the really beefy ones that I could only oneshot with it) then the double implant one, probablt the best OS upgrade in the game. Last one I think I went for the price discount so I could stack up hypos. That's the only thing about this build, you will chug hypos like a crack addict, but I finished the game with like 30+ in my inventory so it wasn't an issue.

I did have left over modules, but as I said I was only playing on HARD so if you're going IMPOSSIBLE you will have less. I used the spare ones to bump energy weapons, my logic was since I have infinite energy through psy bullshit, might as well be good with the pistol which I mostly used for these annoying cunt robots that explode in your face and are kinda annoying for melee. Remember laser pistol has two modes, overcharge mode is great.
Also put some modules in hacking obviously, I was able to hack everything along the way with the cyber psy boost, except the last few containers that I had to mark and backtrack a few hours later when I finally maxed hacking.
For stats maxed psy, then a bit of end, str and agi.
What I can also recommend if you don't care as much about hacking or energy weapons, is to go research and exotics, there is a certain melee weapon that will actually oneshot everything without overhead strikes, but IMO it's overkill and the utility of energy pistol was appreciated in my run.

Activate my fire aura, which is supposed to cause damage to me but actually makes me immune to all fire damage, including from droid explosions

Or just peek my head back behind the corner if it's only one droid.

Okay guys I might be retarded. Im to worried about putting things in the wrong skill to put any into anything. I have over 100 CMs and 1000 nanites because I'm not buying anything either. I'm progressing steadily but I feel like a fucking hobo on meth ruining through the station. Am I playing it wrong?

>Am I playing it wrong?
Not exactly. Until I'm familiar with a game I usually save up skill points until I'm really sure about what to spend them on too. Points into strength/agility/standard weapons/maintenance should be enough to get you through the game if you want to do a basic build, and you should still have plenty of points for hacking/cybernetics, or heavy weapons, or whatever else you want.

Just dont get repair

should I throw away repair mods?

That's pretty much standard SS2 experience for a first playthrough. The way the game rewards you with CM's is kinda designed so that you stock up on them and use them to solve whatever problem you encounter (usually by using them to access tools the game offers you). I always would keep 50+ ish availlable to use in case I find a weapon or something new I want to try.

The repair items? I keep them just in case I ever forget to use a maintenance tool on my weapon and it ends up breaking.

So what's the story behind the final cutscene? did they run out of time or what? I was genuinely very confused.

Dont question it
Just embrace it

The original hybrids are uncanny and unsettling to look at because they are so low-definition. As convenient as it happens to be for games from this time period, it plays into the fear of the unknown. Fact is that if you can see the monster in clear detail, it stops being scary.

If you made high-definition models for them, you'd at the same time have to figure out some godlike stylized way of obscuring detail on them to keep them purposefully uncanny, and I doubt there's an artist that can pull that off simply by replacing the models in the game and leaving the physics and everything else untouched.

IIRC, they had no budget left and it was kinda thrown together at the last minute.
The Nah with the zoom in and cartoon sound effect does look like a secret ending you'd find on Silent Hill instead of the canon ending but who knows. I don't think Levine or Spector ever went into detail about it.

Hard to say. I still find low poly stuff scarier than some highly detailed 3D model. I've seen some attempts at the Midwife in better 3D and it just loses something.

I think the people making the cutscenes made that one without asking the other devs what they actually wanted for the ending, and by the time they saw it there wasn't enough time or money left to make something else.

Everyone has already said it but it bears repeating

The wrench user

they wrote it in the script as a joke to be changed and then it got made because they ran out of time and didnt communicate before crunch time

fucking ptsd from them. AND THEIR HITBOX FOR MELEE IS SO FUCKIGN WEIRD TOO. God I hated them more than anything else in the game, pure fucking cancer.

Waaaaa mommy the grafix where are the grafixxx?

What was this game even about? I remember the gameplay being on a broken space ship, and some lady telling me what to do. I forget why I'm there or what my goal was.

I actually like Repair.

Avoiding big spoilers, you woke up on a ship with no memory, ship is broken and messed up because an AI took over. But you realize quickly something took over the AI itself. The person who woke you up tells you you were in a coma after volunteering to undergo cybernetic enhancements, your goal is to use your new cyber-body to get the shit back under control.

It took me TEN FUCKING YEARS later, when I replayed the game as a grown man to understand this was the origin of my femdom fetish, without a doubt. Fuck this game and what it has done to me

do people not know of the lean forward mechanic? i found it great for melee

any must have mods to make this game upto par for modern standards?

wrench is actually op in ss2 and you don't need anything else for early game

you do need ammo in lategame though, especially at the end when it turns into serious sam for a few minutes

I played the gog version Vanilla a month ago and it felt amazing. Not kidding, the game looks fine and feels better than most modern first person games. The movement feels great.

I have the steam version but never bothered to play it, are they pretty much the same?

pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/System_Shock_2
this should help, also its a great website for other older games too

thanks downloading now

Not quite. The gog actually has some stuff fixed (such as fire aura somehow making you immune to explosions when it shouldn't) that the steam doesn't.
Also, my friend tried to play it on steam and said the game kept crashing constantly, suggested he tries GOG and it ran smoothly for him, so take that as you will, but personally I'd just pirate a GOG version or smth.

also a very interesting mod is out there
moddb.com/mods/system-shock-infinite
but I dont recommend it on your first playthrough
