I'm finally at what I believe is the top of Tai Young Medical.  That was fun getting to this point. Lots of challenges and I especially liked laying mines in the path of the roving turrets. There was a woman who locked herself in a room and I have a problem now with a hoard of guards entering below me. Nothing I have tried has worked very well but I have more tricks in my bag. I wish the game had some real armor. I'll try the dermal armor and see if it helps.

Edit: I didn't try the dermal armor yet but got by the guards with mines, grenades and vents.

Toger, after the fact, I read how you handled the situation. That never occurred to me and it would have been so easy to do. I was expecting the door at the top of the stairs to open. Next time I'll investigate the possibilities.

I'm in Montreal.

I'm getting back to this game after more than three months and it is a bit hard remembering all the controls. I got Taggart to talk and met Sandoval. We just left Detroit and crash landed in Hengsha. I'd like to save Malik but my ammo supply is really low. I do have grenades and will try that. Why is it so hard to get ammo for my pistol? Lots of revolver and shotgun ammo available but I don't have either weapon.

Later...I couldn't save Malik. Just not enough time and it was sad to see her body later on. I was lost in Hengsha as usual but I did remember where the weapons dealer was. Of course He didn't have squat. In the sewers now heading for the goal.

Helmut, maybe some heavy weapons would have helped in the rescue but the game didn't give much time to accomplish it, especially with all the enemies around. I finished up Hengsha, doing just one side quest, the corporate one, was a stowaway on a ship and am trying to rescue friends in Singapore.

I think they made that scenario way too difficult for most players. I've found that there are usually different solutions for tough situations.  When I was heading toward one of the scientists, I had to cross a large room with a couple troublesome guards. After trying to sneak directly across and failing, I realized there was a stairs just around the corner that easily bypassed them and I also could have used cloaking to get by. I don't use cloaking enough. You can even pass through laser panels using it.

I picked up that big laser rifle in Hengsha and am saving it for a boss. Now if I can just figure out how to use it. I'd better practice before I really need it.

Well Pokey

You are tempting me and make me wonder.   I guess I have to give this game a try.  Kay

I think I missed a big section of the game. After seeing Hugh Darrow, I went to the broadcast center because it was the only thing listed to do. I evidently missed Taggart, though I heard a message after climbing some stairs, but there was nowhere to go except for the broadcast center. I also missed Sarif. Guess I'll head back the way I came and see if I can find them before I go to the end game.
