Anyone know where the save files for the game are stored on PC? I think my files might be corrupt and I want to delete them and start a new game

Sprint to the weapon crate in one of the side nooks. It has 2 EMP grenades in it. Throw an EMP at him, then pick up and throw a fire barrel at him while he's shaking. Do that with the other fire barrel. Run to another side nook, it has a few frag grenades and another EMP. Grab them, throw EMP at him, then both frag grenades and he'll die. That's how I got him on Deus Ex difficulty playing a stealth-non-lethal character with no lethal guns.
It SUCKED. But it worked.

I dunno if it's the only one, but it does a hell of a good job of creating reasonable recreations of what real world locations would look like with out suffering from being too small, oddly furnished, and in general stocked with items you might expect to find (excusing ammo which is needed for balance).StoppedInTracks said:
DPD is a great example of what a real functional police station would look like. Counter that with say Resident Evil 2 lol
You really should have D3DOverrider. It allows you to enable vsync and triple buffering in nearly every modern 3D game. And it usually winds up avoiding the occasional vsync related glitch when using the in-game functionality.SalsaShark said:

I feel the same way, kind of. Hitting a boss fight and having to waste all of my preciously scavenged stun-gun/tranq ammo while constantly dying and having to endure 30-second loads over and over is a real easy way to sap all my enthusiasm for a game.zoner said:
I'm going to keep going, obviously, because the rest of the game is so great, but these bosses are some of the worst I've ever seen in a game. It's like Metal Gear except without anything clever or fun. They just stick you in a room with a dude you gotta kill. There's no logic or faith to the rest of the game's atmosphere in there.
Makes me feel like some suit forced them to put bosses in the game in order to check a box.

I used the stun gun + Combat Rifle on him, though I could see it being tough without the right weapons on you from the start. As someone said, there's a bunch of weapons and grenades lying around on the map, as well as explosive barrels. I was disappointed that I couldn't stun him and do a melee on him for damage though.

Yeah, I was surprised to see the loading screens were as long as they were in the early leaked version. Maybe later patches with fix some.
epmode said:
I had it and it was somewhat clumsy (didnt showed up on tray icon, but the process window showed me that the program was running for example), and most of the times the input lag would still be there actually!
i should give it another shot, but i think i have the old version downloaded and i just run it and it doesnt show up :/

Everything you need is around you.
Close your browser (and maybe any media players you have open) when you first launch it. I had the same issue on Win7 4bit. Showed up in the process window but nowhere else. Then someone here recommended I close Chrome and VOILA!SalsaShark said:

The loading isn't a big issue for me. If anything it makes things much more tense because if I get spotted (assuming I'm trying to be stealthy) or die I have to wait the 20-30 secs loading. Shit gets really tense and you have to take your time and be really patient. Now if you could load in like 3 seconds would you even care about dying or getting spotted? Don't get me wrong, the load times are too long but it's not a big deal.
ok... please advise... I own a 360 only
If I liked Mass effect 1&2 but didn't love it. If I loved Fallout, Red Dead and AC brotherhood. If I have not enjoyed any of the Splinter cell games and never played MGS series but loved Thief on the old PC.
I appreciate open world more as you can see
will I possibly appreciate this game? worth $60?

Due to life I've only managed 5 minutes of play before I have to do life stuff. On a 2500K/4GB RAM/OC'ed GTX570 I'm getting a solid 60fps on max with v-sync on. Hope this is indicative of the performance for the rest of the game. Looks pretty good, though the being able to disable the urine filter would be nice. Shooting mechanic is better than I expected...hope theres enough ammo. Other than that not much to say after 5 minutes.

Okay so I think my game files might be corrupted on PC
It freezes only when I go into the start menu and try to access saving and loading. Sometimes it randomly works and otherwise it just freezes instantly and I have to force the game closed.
For some reason, also whenever I exit the game normally, it closes fine but then an error pops up as if it closed with an error.
So how do I get rid of my save files and start fresh? Do I have to delete the whole game as well? Where are my save files located?

I'd say so, yeah. Btw you can probably find a good deal with $10+ in credit or just straight up $50 somewhere. Pre-release Amazon had a $20 credit and Newegg $48 totalKlocker said:
The game is not open world like Fallout but there are hubs and the gameplay sounds like it could be your cup of tea. It's definitely deeper than Mass Effect and more akin to Fallout.

Well I finally got to the Detroit hub area & my opinion of this game lowered a lot by then.
Played 90% of the first mission through trial & error stealth, because I had no FREAKING bullets to kill guys. If I did try to engage a group, I would run out of bullets & have to reload a save.
Low ammo pick ups doesn't make this game harder, it makes it shitter.
I strongly dislike the option of them PUSHING the stealth on you. The original Deus Ex (And IW) were much more equal on whether you wanted to go on a combat or non-combat/stealth route.
The cover mechanic is a shitty ass idea for a FPS unless it's a tactical game like Rainbow Six.
All the time I have been playing, I have not killed ONE single person outside the 3rd person cover mechanic. There is no reason for the game to be a FPS!

Seems that way. I can create save files instantly but loading takes forever. How fast is saving on PS3/360?
Heavy said:
It is a big deal. I was at a quest where I had to take down 4 guys, in a small ass room. I'm on the hardest difficulty, so like 2 shots I go down. There was really no way to sneak by them to take them out, and I'm going for a non lethal takedowns... so I got that on my hands too. I'm having fun with my attempts in trying to do it since it's challenging, but having to wait so long between each attempt (which may only last 10 secs) is very very frustrating.
At this point I'm thinking restarting the game, say fuck to stealth and no kill and jack the difficulty down. I don't want to, but those load times are making me wanna shelf this game.

Odd, even people with SSDs were saying they were having way way longer load times.

The constant dying and extra long loading screens(even on an SSD) are pissing me off. This game is supposed to give options I thought-Fight, stealth, tactics, etc... but instead, some of these fights and boss fights are terrible and require heavy combat which is the games weakest point

So here's something that's been bugging me, strictly a worldbuilding/story nitpick, not a slight against the game or anything:
Why are punks and goths the people you hear in the streets constantly deriding augs, but starched-shirt upper-middle-class folks are mostly all for it? It just seems strange that those are the stereotypes they'd use. I understand that it's supposed to be an issue of class warfare, but I find it odd that they'd choose modern subcultures that currently put a lot of stock into body modding in real life to be the ones shouting you down for "going against God's design". Thoughts?

The cover mechanics are pretty useful, especially since the guards in DXHR walk quicker patrol routes compared to the ones in the original DX. There were several situations where I had some close calls where I miscalculated a patrol route and was able to gain the situational awareness I needed to find an exit route and vault myself cover to cover out of there.See You Next Wednesday said:

I only had half an hour to toy around with it after the game unlocked since I'm bogged down with assignments etc, but none of the preorder items showed up in my inventory. Now, this made me sort of happy, but where exactly are they, and where on earth do I find my augmented edition soundtrack, artbook etc?
I got Aug edition gifted to me a few weeks ago via Steam, in case that is relevant.
