I’m like 8 hours in and all I’ve been doing is climbing things, skirting little ledges around buildings to see if I can get higher, and constantly using ping/distract on things on the ground.

I don’t know why. I’ve only found 2 places where I could break a window with a bat and sneak into a building, most floors and buildings seem only for show with no real interior. But… since I know breakable windows and secret entrances and shit exists I can’t stop looking for it.

I’m only level 7, but climbing high and lighting everyone on fire with technomagic is my kind of great combat. I was really surprised to find out that actually lighting people on fire until they run out of health somehow doesn’t count as killing them and they just go “downed”… so I can get the bonus from some quests for not killing, then go back with a katana and dice them up. <3

    Just wait until you get more advanced cyberware. There are leg modules for double or charged jump. With that and the air dash ability under Reflex, you can leap like a mighty cyber-gazelle across the city, faster than many cars.

      You need that leg enhancement.

      It’s the only way to play the game. If you played all the way through without trying this, all I can say is you missed out.

      With the jump and the air dash you will be an unstoppable melee demon. And it will be fun.

        The perk and cyberware combos that let you have near constant ~90% mitigation strength guaranteed midair is just nuts. Throw in the mid air kerenzikov and you’re practically a little flying angry cyber hornet.

      Yee this is how I discovered there’s an invisible ceiling eventually. But you can also climb high enough to ride on the trains in some areas so I forgive the height, especially since its real fuckin far up.

      Think I jinxed myself making a post about it. I’m 14 hours in with zero issues, but since I made this post every time I start the game within 1-10 minutes the game freezes totally with the audio still playing. Trying a clean reinstall in case it was a mod, but hadn’t added anything since I started playing.
