I'm stuck in the Neitzche Room... help please...

Post by Jane_Denton »

I'm stuck in the Neitzche Room. :shock: I have gotten down to the bottom but don't know where to go from there? Obviously I'm missing something?! A door or a hatch or something..? :?: I die from the toxic goo before I find out what to do, and I've reloaded numerous times trying to different things.. now I feel like I'm playing Tomb Raider...instead of DX.... LOL

Any help would be appreciated! Thanx! ;)

Thanks Jonas :oops: I'm an idiot #-o I went to that vent at the beginning... and didn't get in ... thought it was too narrow and was looking elsewhere...

If it makes you feel any better, I spent a good hour throwing boxes and crates down into the goo to provide a platform for enthusiastic exploration of the 'below the vent' area.

It was disappointing. :(

You're not the only one to think the vent was unenterable. We could've probably done that bit better.

It's too narrow and its entry end is floating, both of which make it unusual in the world of DX. I've been playing through Half-Life 2 (and Episodes 1 & 2) which forces you to be a crafty bugger, much like DX, but in different ways, so I just tried it. Actually missed the jump the first time, but I tried again and it went OK.

On a side note (not worthy of its own topic), Half-Life 2 had a brilliant thing with a vent I'd love to see in DX/TNM, it's a shame it's all done. You're in this vent and you hear creaking. The vent drops, and it sets off a series of explosions. It's badly designed, as you'll die 9/10 of the time. The vent's walls will protect you, it's just most of the time one of the explosions originates at either end. There's a hole in the top you can jump out of, but most likely that's a danger zone, too. Right before the creak is the checkpoint, though, so it's not too bad. Obviously a lot of that might require the Source engine to do right, I don't know, but the idea of a vent collapsing and putting you in a place you didn't want to be in, so you've got to find yet another way to get to your objective (when the vents are supposed to be like the last resort).

I take it you never tried taking the vent route into the DXI MCR area.

They're way faster to type, and they help cover up the fact that almost every single faction or location in the game has "Deus Ex" in its name.

If anyone were to write a walkthrough, they'd need a hell of a glossary..

"Go from PDX HQ to the WC HQ SB to talk to ZP, then head to GC and enter the PDX NSC"

:shock:

If anybody were to write a TNM walkthrough that would be the least of their worries.

Enter Sol's bar. Open the legend menu and create the flag allied_WC (set it to true) find Kylie and talk to her. This is a hidden conversation which cannot be activated without cheating. Enjoy it. If you are wearing glasses you will experience the only "my vision is augmented" joke in the entire mod. (The only other mention of any kind being within the text of the fan fic Twist.)

When the conversation is finished open the legend menu, delete the flag "allied_WC" and kill Kylie. Don't worry, she deserves it and she'll get better anyway. Retrieve the keys she is carrying. You will need one of them to activate Narcissus' PMs in the Corporate Sewers.

-Excerpt from a hypothetical Narcissus walkthrough of The Nameless Mod.
