I'm all for specialization but if I crash my bike do I have to go to multiple repair shops to fix the brakes, handlebars and tyres?<br /><br />I also having issues with a covert codename being Buyer2. You might as well call him ShadyGuy14.<br /><br />As far as the gameplay game, I love that it gives you clues as to what you didn't do optimally, like showing you Rita's high on cocaine to give you the clue to get rid of the cocaine. Way to go KGB!TBDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13815382857422719383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3387495443226852794.post-72737827378968715912017-04-06T05:25:35.752+10:002017-04-06T05:25:35.752+10:00Quite.

The backtrack function usually makes it trivial to experiment like that.

Maybe I'll go back later and try out some of the optional stuff. I'm on chapter 2 now, and I've used all my save game slots there, so no going back to Kursk street without restarting the game...Torchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15929817555431987717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3387495443226852794.post-63486877753126838792017-04-06T01:14:24.807+10:002017-04-06T01:14:24.807+10:00This comment has been removed by the author.Torchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15929817555431987717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3387495443226852794.post-76153052312678117892017-04-05T06:58:19.577+10:002017-04-05T06:58:19.577+10:00Adding a couple things:

It's just flavor and doesn't affect anything.<br />You seem to have missed what the clipboard is for, but you need it to sell your bluff about doing an opinion poll, which is the only way to get into Zhanna's apartment.<br />Running out of matches before you do everything you need them for is indeed a game ender. It's actually pretty ridiculous for such a rather realistic game to not let Rukov just ask some randoms on the street to buy a match for a dollar or so. You're actually able to bug some of them for free smokes.<br />Changing your clothes affects absolutely nothing, it's just flavor.<br />Denim mentioned he "saw you at Golitsin's" If you look out the window at Golitsin's office when you're there, you'll spot him spying on you and will recognize him when he's thrown into the room (remember the phone bug in the office being western-made? He's the one that planted it, which is why he's here and knows more or less the same as you). Also, you seem to have missed his passport with his (probably not real) name located alongside your stuff in Verto's apartment.<br />There's a LOT of optional content in Kursk Street. Here's a few highlights:<br />*Butter up Belussov just right and he'll let you into his apartment to meet his rather dysfunctional family.<br />*Ask Mr. Ryumin the right questions and you'll learn that he's a deeply religious man and that the "act of treason" he was arrested for was distributing bibles to his friends.<br />*Sneak into the bar's backroom right after it closes and you can kill(!) the bartender and steal his money and key, which you can use to enter the bar and the club ater they close.<br />*You can use Verto's gun to shoot up the locks on the other apartment doors and sneak around in people's apartments ater they've gone to bed.<br /><br />Unfortunately the game gets consideraly more linear after chapter 1. The different chapters feel like they were written by different people.Adamantnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3387495443226852794.post-44173539294051104702017-04-05T04:34:14.633+10:002017-04-05T04:34:14.633+10:00Ah, the old "murder the protagonist" sty...Ah, the old "murder the protagonist" style of adventure game, I see.Fryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07805219432946673379noreply@blogger.com
