Little Quirks of Deus Ex

[Shinobi]

Starter for ten:

You press "I" to access inventory, all well and good...
..."G" gets you to the goals screen, so far so good...
......"M" gets you to the images screen....


...or does it? Nope! Ya gotta do Alt+M. Stupid, no?

(of course, I've you've re-mapped your inventory key then you'll be stuck at step 1 lol)

Anybody found any little DX stupidities?

Making a characters head invisible also makes their hands vanish.

Sometimes an exit teleporter sends you back to the entry teleporter just as you came out of it?

Wrong, you're eager to move forward but the map saved you in the previous map you're re-entering, and faced to the map you just left. It makes sense, especially with the Hilton Hotel.

LAW has a scope that doesn't work

[~DJ~]

Eh? When did law had scope? D:

The funniest thing in my mind is.. CAT BOUNCES ON WATAARRR

[~ô¿ô~Nobody~]

LAW has a scope that doesn't work

admin set WeaponLAW bHasScope true

LAW has full scope support now. There should be done a mod for this.

[~DJ~]

NOW I WILL MAKE A MOD.

Smoke's mod has it, I think.

[Allan]

If you fire the LAW with the scope on, it'll remain in Scope mode.

[~DJ~]

Yeah cause law will be gone, but scope will be on too, just switch to other weapon. Fixed :p

Also.. i am DJ, not JD..

One thing I've always wanted to know was how to reload the assault gun.

The back hexagonal end I assume stored the magazine, since the magazine was hexagonal as well.

But how the fuck do you put it in?

[Eçheløn]

Funny thing i came across when i started up DX.

Type in "Behindview 1" while the Eidos\ION Storm\Deus Ex logos are on.

That is a good question. But this is the 2050s, WE CAN DO ANYTHING!

Ask about Deus Ex weapons on /k/, they'd have a field trip with everything especially 10mm.

Already tried about a year earlier, some of them told me to fuck off back to /v/.

/k/ used to be my countrymen, now just a bunch of airsoft faggots who think they know everything about guns....

[Mr. Tastix]

Someone do that and post the convo here... like hell I'm going there. They'd probably all threaten to bomb you or something...

[James]

lol worse they could do is complain about magazines being different than clips.

[James]

asked in /v/ just now. I don't know anything about guns so just posting the replies it got.

"I'd say the magazine works similarly to maybe the American 180 submachinegun does, or the FN-P90. I don't have pics of them but the American-180 has a magazine like the Deus Ex assault rifle. the difference is that it loads from the top. Perhaps this weapon has some kind of recoil drive to push the next round into the chamber from the magazine. Or maybe it's just got a badass spring. I assume there'd be a magazine-release catch near the trigger, which would release the mag to be stored/thrown away and a new one inserted.

10mm Auto is a real caliber for modern weaponry. It's something of an equivalent to .45ACP, as far as I can tell."

"like a Tommy Gun i guess."

[Mr. Tastix]

People go far too much into detail about a gun that chances are, doesn't exist. And, even if it does, probably not in working form lol. Now that I think about that... I want some models of the Deus Ex weapons... obviously the ones that are similar to real-life ones, ofc.

And I have a request: Edit ~Nobody~'s post so that it's "ultimate forum layout screwing class name" doesn't screw the forum layout anymore, lol. Yeah, I get that's the point and all. But I can't seriously be the only person getting kind of annoyed at it?

He's right, it does look similar to the American 180.



But how does the clip get into the magazine storage? I found no holes in it or a button that "opens" the magazine storage.

And look at that grenade launcher - smallest I've ever seen! Why does it even have a clip as well? 20mm ammo isn't half an inch, the shell would be too much of a problem.

[Mr. Tastix]

I never thought about it before, never cared to, but 20mm is fucken tiny.
