how tf you gon make a video for new players and start the video with a major spoiler

Pistol + laser mod= easy mode

a really important thing to note is that if you lower the Pistol skill to Untrained at the New Game skill screen, it'll automatically be raised back to Trained once the game starts, meaning you should always Untrain it on a new game for the free extra skill points. this is a known bug. another bug to note is the Plasma Rifle/PS20 both have their damage values broken in the latest patch of the game and they arent worth using now.

good game but horrible first impressions my eyes literally hurt from font size

Always take a GEP gun from Paul all other weapons you can get on the same level but GEP gun will be only at lvl3

The VERY annoying thing in all the Deus Ex games, it's that he is as flimsy as cigarette paper. I liked the character from Terminator Dark Fate that could go toe to toe with a Terminator, that's how a bionic man should be, much more durable.

Should've talked more about the importance of saving because you know, the game has no autosave system.

"Nobody ever uses pistols." ...this guide is not correct. About a lot.

Minicrossbow: You have not done enough research. First keep in mind for a lot of your demonstrations, NSF troopers have less health than almost all humans, 80 vs 100. That's why some of your demonstrations get the results they do, especially on Liberty Island. The tranq dart does damage the way any weapon does, and then the poison damage does recurring damage to the torso. If the enemy succumbs to nonlethal damage, he silently falls to unconscious. That means you can help him along the way by shooting him again, with another dart or possibly with a stealth pistol or silenced sniper in the arm. It's been years since I crunched the numbers, but at Master and possibly at Advanced, a headshot is instant and nonlethal to troopers without a stealth bonus.

Some notes: For Stealth non-lethal players; the tranquilizer dart loaded mini-crossbow does work instantly if you can headshot at master pistol skill due to the x8 multiplier on headshot damage. Also, you forgot gas grenades as a ranged grouped enemy/trap mechanism to incapacitate enemies before you knock them out. For stealth lethal players the stealth pistol is actually a worse choice than the normal dart loaded mini crossbow that has nearly double it's damage (15 damage to stealth pistol's 8) meaning you have to be master level in pistol to one shot headshot with the stealth pistol whereas the crossbow can do that completely untrained. The stealth pistol's advantages are on reload time, range and availability of ammunition. Silencer mods can also be applied to the Sniper Rifle and Assault Rifle for high damage and high rate of fire quiet force projection respectively. For stealth and non-stealth lethal players the Sniper Rifle can be used at Master Level to destroy cameras, turrets and alarm panels.

2:52 I wouldn't recommend this. Exploration and discovery is one of the most rewarding pars of the game.

nobody uses pistols? are you mad? One shots most of the enemies, has perfect aim with the laser scope and has the most common type of ammo.

When I selected the open gl, it gave fast frames. jc was the flash, and the dialogue wound never finished

thanks

Do people really struggle that much with Deus Ex? It's not an easy game I'll admit but c'mon. I beat it without any online guides and I'm garbage!

Hey, the pistol is an amazing weapon!

I for one love the riot prod, the handgun, the sniper rifle, the grenades and the utility items. Demolitions, Environmental Training and Medicine are skills I like to increase a bit. Admittedly, lockpicking or electronics, and hacking definitely takes priority. Advanced hacking is amazing.

Wait... I'll have to return to this video for the graphics fix. Because my game is DARK.

I'm not gonna stand here and listen to you badmouth the greatest stealth weapon Deus Ex has ever known Seriously tho, crossbow is great for distracting enemies and can one hit them if you can get a headshot

I always use the pistol =|

I just bought the Game. I really look forward to playing it.

After having beaten this game so many times... I have discovered the real reason why binoculars were designed for the game and how they should be used. It shocks me that no one talks about it. My recomendation: always have one in your inventory, always smoke cigarettes before "flying" to another map, always eat soy in every Lv. Always have some "garbage" in your inventory.

Don't put a laser and a scope on the same weapon. There's a bug that breaks the laser.

There is only two things new players need to remember. First, use Kenties DX10 renderer (far better option than using OpenGL). Second, drop the Dragon's Tooth when leaving Hong Kong and never pick another one up... it breaks the game. Don't downtrain pistol at char gen... that is juist cheating, the game is easy enough as it is.

This video goes against everything imm sim.... Stupid normies

Ive played this game multiple times and never knew you could downgrade skills from the initial start hahaha. I just reinstalled it the other day but with the "give me deus ex" mod and its like a new game. Upgrades the visuals/added artistic level design in certain places that makes it feel more organic. New weapon sounds, Plus tweaks to upgrades/augments.It totally feels and plays like the original but keeps the same aesthetic perfectly

The dude just reached peak content in one video

>tutorial for new players >spoiler in the first second

3:43 For the stealth: good luck, we’re 100% BLACK!

It's funny to see him untraining pistol for every build because I just finished the game using a stealth pistol the entire run XDDD

thank you

bro how come you start a beginners video with a spoiler?

nobody ever talks about the eye augmentation. The eye augmentation allows you to fly a camera around corners and down corridors without being seen. When you are done with the little "Ship" it sends down you hit the button and it detonates an EMP blast. That blast gets stronger, and the speed of the camera gets quicker. When fully augmented you can take out any robotic or electronic guards from a huge distance away by flying the ship and igniting it. The last scene, there are two heavy robotic guards in the entrance hallway at the far end, you don't even need to be in the building to take them out this way.

Gmdx mod made this game amazing. Played it three times in a row just try different builds and strats, found new things every time

2:48 Heavily disagree here about skills being easy to understand It's very easy to waste skill points if you don't know their effectiveness. For example, computer skill SUCKS beyond trained, advanced only lets you reprogram turrets(and they suck in DX1 compared to Human Revolution where they have wider range of turret movement, they always work and not just when alarm is on, and you can pick up turrets in HR/MD for extra funnies. Master Computer skill doesn't even do anything besides giving you extra time before being kicked off the menu. In HR and MD hacking is way more important for getting the most out of the maps, in DX1, keep computer at trained to spare oh so needed skill points. Next, almost NEVER master any skills, only exceptions are Pistol, Rifle and Low Tech, and you only master those if you specifically doing run with their weapons(regular pistol for pistol skill, sniper rifle and/or sabot ammo sawed off shotgun for breaking objectives, and dragon tooth and baton for low tech. Another noob points trap is mastering lockpicking and especially electronics. It's most expensive master skill and it's not worth it, game already provides plenty of lockpicks or explosives to break stuff, and electronics is even worse since it's easy to avoid most electronic security objects and most locks are mechanical not electronic. Swim is just, da meme, literally not worth it unless you're build is very straightforward and small and you just don't want to waste time slowly swimming, there's like 2 locations(one in the secret water base where you definitely can't reach hidden ship with no swim skill and another location in Hong Kong flooded district i think is too long to swim)where you need to swim long way and you can either use two rebreathers for it or not care about it. Environmental training also pretty pointless even on combat builds since you can't really go rambo in Deus Ex without burning up all ammo so game kinda forces you to always be tactical in your shooting and avoid dmg but Ig you can upgrade it once or twice since it's pretty cheap. Heavy and especially explosives is also bad, explosives already do max dmg you need to break toughest breakable objects so you won't cross new thresholds by leveling it and the window to turn off mines is pretty generous even without investing a single point into explosives. Heavy skill is only good n fun if you have mods making Plasma rifle good again, besides plasma rifle and Ig flamethrower you really shouldn't be using heavy weapons as main tool, and GEP gun/Law already one shot everything soo... Really kinda niche skill Also Healing skill is, again, kinda pointless since ammo is kinda scarce in Deus Ex and enemies give way too few of it, so game insentivises tactical shooting where you avoid dmg. So yeah, it IS vital info to know about skills,

1:35 That's only true for later game enemies, early game enemies don't need you investing a single point in low tech skill to one shot em with baton from behind. Also even for later game enemies you can just circle strafe them and keep using baton on their lower back to end them in 2-3 hits

I've been replaying this game for years and I have never fired a from the of GEP gun. My build always boils down to baton, stealth pistol, and agility/stealth related stuff. I just love role-playing what Deus Ex kinda intends you to role-play. I can still headshot people with my super duper upgraded stealth pistol if I decide your bullshit is too much to handle but I prefer stealth and non-lethal approach.

The Pistol is by far one of the best guns in the game, it OHKO when Trained on Headshots, and with the Laser Mod for it, it becomes easy to take out enemies at any range.

This misses out on a LOT to be honest, to the point of advising players away from very good tactics. For one, people definitely use pistols given the basic pistol can headshot from trained level or so. In fact, best option is if anything to take the points out of pistol, put them wherever (or keep them for later), and in vanilla you'll find you started with trained anyway. It's relatively easy to start with advanced pistols pretty early, about on par with leveling low-tech skill. It works as basically a bootleg sniper rifle with only a modest combination of skill and accuracy mods, from far enough out that enemies won't hear the gunshot (negating the main drawback it has over the stealth pistol) Second, starting with advanced in computers is actually VERY good, and something you can potentially do from the start of the game. It unlocks the ability to turn turrets against enemies, which is astoundingly broken and you get plenty of opportunities to cheese this. Those things can take on anything up to commandos and light bots pretty much effortlessly, and are very good for creating safe areas to fall back to (the prelude to the cathedral level gives you a good chance). It's also worth noting that lockpick and electronics skills can be flat-out ignored in vanilla, IF you're willing to take advantage of an exploit. By starting to unlock the item, hitting the inventory key or other menus that pause the game, then idling for long enough to let the unlocking progress, you can open any level of lock, keypad, etc with only a single pick or multitool. GMDX fixes the explit and also locks turrets behind master level computer skill (:<), no idea what Revision does, but definitely worthwhile to consider in vanilla.

You nailed it perfectly on the feeling when you get a stealth game mastered

The normal pistol is good. It becomes perfectly accurate with laser sight and one shots normal enemies with a headshot, and three shots Men in Black. You untrain the skill at the start because it gives you free points. The pistol skill defaults back to trained, even if you downgrade it at game start.

Shotguns tickle

I finished my first playthrough a couple days ago, and I was floored at the shot from the wiki showing there were NINETEEN aug upgrade canisters in the game. I only found NINE! Despite that, I was able to find the actual augments themselves at their earliest points. on the upshot, it was because of this that i was able to get good mileage out of synthetic heart.

It's been a fantastic year for Deus Ex content

Played Deus Ex for the first time earlier this year and I’ll be playing it every year from now on.

I loved OpenGL back in the day. Edit: Having always taken jump, I've never considered this.

you start out your video for first-time players by spoiling some of the end-game cutscenes?

Hey, you use a Source Port or so? My Steam version can't even play the sounds properly. D:

I did replay Chaos Theory multiple times just to try for 100% on every level. I got 100% on every level but 2 or 3 I think. The only game I've replayed immediately after finishing it, and one of the only games I've ever replayed at all. I actually haven't even replayed Deus Ex, although I should after I finish all those other singleplayer Steam games I have in my library. Looking at the games I've ever replayed. Chaos Theory, Half-Life, Stanley's Parable, and one of the HL2 episodes for achievements is about it. I've restarted some games that I got partway through and finished, but those don't count. I sunk a shit ton of hours into the Deus Ex Nameless Mod, but since I didn't really get it, plus it is way too long, I got bored and quit.

stick with the prod, it is the most silent way to remove resitance but remember that a headshot is a lethal takedown, sometimes its best to pick them up from a distance so take a sniper rifle and you never know when you come across some heavy armor so a GEP gun might be useful.
