Throughout the game, you receive cybernetic modules that allow you to upgrade stats and skills. There isn't enough time to be good at everything. Even though it's possible to be a Marine with psionics, the key to not getting screwed is to pick a style and commit to it. Do you prefer unconventional tactics? O.S.A. Do you want to be a tech specialist? Then go Navy. Do you want to specialize in fighting? Be a Marine.
do keep playing, it's a fantastic game.Īt the beginning of System Shock 2, you select a character class: Marine, Navy or O.S.A (these roughly correspond to Fighter, Thief and Mage in other games). My hope is for newcomers use this information to find secrets on their own.Īddendum, 2020: NO PLANS TO UPDATE THIS GUIDE EVER AGAIN, HOWEVER. (Sadly, now defunct.) Also, this is not an exhaustive list of secrets.
This is not intended to be a walkthrough for completing the game. In The Beginner's Guide to System Shock 2, we'll cover a few gameplay basics and strategies for success. This guide is written in hopes that first-timers will make it to the second time. After the first playthrough, this sinks in, and players enjoy things more the second time around. Every choice, each pull of the trigger has long-lasting consequences. Each skill you upgrade means other skills won't be upgraded. Each bullet you shoot is a bullet you could have saved. Equipment is scarce, and the game never gives you more than you need. Much of the difficulty comes from resource scarcity. It was difficult, even for its time, so is there any wonder it goes tried and unfinished? It's not a game you simply pick up and play. This is unfortunate, though understandable. System Shock 2 is an old PC game that lacks the streamlined simplicity of modern game design, and many who start don't finish.
