James Bond in Deus Ex

Post by LordCorvin »

Has anyone attempted a James Bond Story on Deus Ex engine?

I just want to play more of spy games, with action, story and good mechanics like Deus Ex

Unashamed self-promotion time!

Not quite Deus Ex, but maybe close enough?

Liked the gameplay, but it looked too easy. And is it Coop only?

But back to my question, no one tried to create a James Bond story in Deus Ex?

Awesome concept Jonas, but the hacking dude doesn't seem to have any limitations. That could tend to make the game easy and simple. Is that the case? Also how can the NPCs differentiate between a death by a gunshot and one that looks like an accident?

No, playable in singleplayer also.

No.

That was kind of implied.

It is not :)

Well, it is right now, but that's because we're overhauling the sysadmin behaviour. When we're done, and the admin is back in, the hacker will constantly need to evade them while working.

Well, people who have been shot tend to have bullet holes in them.

I'm not sure I get your question.

Clandestine is pretty fun single player, but it's super awesome co-op. Like, imagine Alex Jacobsen was an actual person, being actually useful, rather than a precoded hack artist who only exists to occasionally obscure your view and stop you quicksaving.

I'm basically just waiting for Jonas to get the damn game on early access so I can throw money at him.

Me too! Sounds awesome! Reminds me of this thing I wrote about DX3 back when we didn't know anything.

Thief: Hey man i cant get past this camera.
Hacker: Hacking right now, the camera will disabled in 40 seconds(system about hacking will be explained in the appropriate forum)
Thief: 40? oh my god,someone is coming!! I dont have time!!
Hacker: Relax. Do exactly as i tell you and you will be fine. The blueprints i acquired shows that there is a ventilation shaft near you but you have to be careful.
Thief: Ok man. I am listening.
Hacker: Ok, run to the end of the corridor to the closed door. Dont worry about the camera, i'll spend some of my bio energy to stun it for a couple of seconds. I hope you are fast enough at lockpicking. Ok once inside you will see three corridors. Left, right and center. Left someone is coming your way. I see him through the camera. Right there is a bot, i can hack it but you dont have that much time. Center there is a man walking on the opposite direction. Run silently and use the prod.
Thief: *He back stab him with a knife* Eye did you like that bastard?
Hacker: Hey why did you do that for? Man, we agreed on a non-lethal run.
Thief: Spare me.. I just felt like killing him.
Hacker: Well now figure a way to clear the blood from the floor, because camera 4 says that a guard approaches and he will be there in half minute.
Thief: Oh no, i cant brake the light!! Its inside some glass and it will do a lot of noise, but it is my only chance.
Hacker:No wait!! I'll close it, just grab the body and get in the shaft at the end of the corridor. Just Run!!
-------------3 minutes later----------------
Hacker:Oh no, i am busted. Someone logged in to turn on the lights again, he checked and caught me. A squad is coming to my position. I am surrounded. No hope for me
Thief: Wait, dont log out!!Just guide me so i can come in front of them.
Hacker: And then what? You cant fight an augmented squad. You dont have that kind of weapons!!
Thief: Trust me!!!
--------------1 minute later-------------------
Hacker:You should be above the corridor they will be in a minute. I hope you know what you are doing.
*Thief sets up four gas grenades*
Hacker: It wont stop them for long.
Thief: Hey i know what i am doing ok?!!
Hacker: Fine! Your funeral..
*Thief hides around the corner and waits for the first bip of a gas grenade*
Hacker: They are trying to deactivate them, they have managed two!!
*Thief leans and throws a LAM :O and a couple of gas grenades.. The gas is flammable and half the squad dies from the explosion or the flames!! The rest of them, wounded run on the opposite direction to regroup and to find a medic*
Hacker: You saved my ass mate.
Thief: No problem, but we still have to complete the objective.
Hacker: Lets do it!!
YK: And you... you... are a bad actress.

Urh, it was in pre-pre-alpha when I played it with you. It's come a long way since then!
