Well, now I own -both- Infamous Dallas masks. The one with the flag, and one without. I am now paralyzed by the choices of how to customize them. Also I play Chains mostly, so...

Safecracking is not worth using over C4 unless you're heavily invested in Ghost. I ditched C4 out of disappointment because the explosions are like tiny, little babyfarts.

Soral posted:I got the Deagle a little while ago and it seems to be pretty much identical to the crosskill other than the damage stat and the reduced ammo count, yet for some reason I perform far worse with it than my old crosskill, I can't hit a loving thing at anything other than short range. Am I imagining things? Or are those stat bars actually meaningless? A lot of the bars don't move even though the items specifically mention it affecting stats, so I would guess that the bars are meaningless.

Has anyone fully stripped the banks in heist? I've never been able to do it fully without pubbies crying about running out of ammo when there's two 8 re-ammos sitting inside of the vault for them to use while killing super troopers.

Nightclub is one of the few heists where a Ghost can do pretty much everything.

I managed it on an Overkill Cash that the group of pubbies I was with managed to stealth. With them picking the deposit boxes and me managing the hostages, not quite having enough zipties for everyone, we made it out with just under 900k. Took about a half-hour, but that time was inflated by how long it took us to figure out exactly how we were going to approach it.

It's doable to stealth, but not really worth the time, retries, and object/guard placement luck. Saw and some ammo bags make quicker work of it and are only a little bit riskier.

I've heard that the saw can slice people clean in half, Is this actually true or does it just kill them without glorious disembowelment and decapitations? I need to know the level of gore involved with the saw before I decide to use it.

It's purely a utility saw. The only time you should use it against enemies is using it against a bulldozer, because regardless of who you attack, you are going to lose a lot of saw durability for a quick kill, even upgraded. And no, I haven't seen any gore.

drat, I really wanted to pull a Texas chainsaw massacre stealth bank heist. I'd love to see the looks on the faces of the police finally arriving on scene and seeing an entire bank full of disemboweled bodies and an empty vault.

Majuju posted:Nothing is worth grinding except for Ukrainian Overkill. Do the rest because you want to pull them off really well, the time:reward is nowhere near as good. Nightclub is worth grinding if you have no C4 but have a safecracker, otherwise Four Stores can be done solo with a saw for cards. gently caress crime.net and gently caress the card system in this, seriously. Having to do Four Stores over and over again (which involves starting the game, wasting 30s waiting on crime.net in case it shows Four Stores, then quitting and repeating the affair if it doesn't) for a (at most) 33% chance at getting a weapon mod card which then has a what, 1% chance of getting you a specific mod you're looking for? It's the loving worst. They seriously need to let us buy weapon mods. e; gently caress it, blew 2mil on respeccing to Tech for C4. I'll miss my shotguns, but oh well.

I don't realy mind the card system idea in general, it helps keeping me from instantly just building the 'best gun' and never look back and actually made me try some weapons I had not intention to use before I got some mofification drops for them. It also 'helped' in actually making me build a silenced weapon for once, which I'm actually growing rather fond of by now. But the money drops are bullshit once you made your first few heists and are plain insulting if you just managed to finish a well paying overkill mission; also the lack of card-drops in multi-day missions makes them just worse in terms of rewards, which is sad cause they are the most fun missions available. I hope they rethink that and add card-drops between mission-days.

I think simply giving you an extra card per day at the end of the job would be better than giving you a card between each day. Maybe even give extra cards for multi-day pro jobs.

RE: all the talk (a couple of pages ago) about this game not running on an integrated Intel graphic card, do you guys think it'll run on a Radeon HD 8730M? I have the Intel HD 4000 or whatever it's called in my laptop, and then I have that Radeon as a secondary card. I googled a bit, and found not much info, so I thought I'd ask here.

It's doubly ironic because the choice is already made before you even pick a card (in the sense that you would have gotten the same thing regardless of what you picked). If you pick center and get money and you see a weapon card on the right, picking right would also have given you cash. The card picking graphic is purely aesthetic.

But there's a logic to it you see, a friend of a mate of a guy who he knows told him that you can influnce the drop by standing on one leg and spinning around three times then typing in the name of the card you want, it works I know it!!! In other news a few of my friends have figured out grinding overkill heists with shaped charges, being in and out within seconds to minutes. At the very least it'll get me further up on the skill tree skipping some of the money/level grind which I didn't like to begin with but I still feel completely filthy doing it. Longer heists are still fun as gently caress as are bank heists, but tiny one day quick payoff shaped charge be out before the cops get here stuff is quickly getting old.

The really annoying part about crime.net is that it doesn't just let you choose difficulty. I have little interest in anything but overkill and overkill/pro. When levels require 150k+ per, it is a waste to do anything else.

In my non-expert checking, it *should* be okay. The issue with the Intel HD was less the strength of it and more the fact that it was integrated rather than discrete like your Radeon card is.

When levels require 150k+ per, it is a waste to do anything else. I feel pretty much the same way. Occasionally it's nice to play through a normal difficulty mission and just walk over the cops. It's a nice change of pace after cutting through legions of walking tank cops.

Here is how to fix crime.net: make difficulty something you pick after picking the heist, and make sure all non-pro heists have a fixed location on the map where they always show up, that way you can always do whatever heist you want at whatever difficulty you want. But they probably won't make any changes to crime.net, because not being able to do the good heists is probably by design, to stop people trying to get around the stupid grind stuff by repeating the heists whose rewards aren't balanced.
