Deus Ex - Nonlethal Walkthrough - Battery Park

[SilvahDot]

Where did all your weapon mods go?

[shido534]

@SilvahDot What weapon mods?

[SilvahDot]

@shido534 You got weapon mods during the first mission, when you blow up the ship's door with the GEP gun. Accuracy and laser, I think. They're gone now. Did you sell them? If so, to who?

[shido534]

@SilvahDot I used each one of them on my weapons literally seconds after I picked them up.

[SilvahDot]

@shido534 I see. Thanks.

[SilvahDot]

Where the fuck did you get the rocket launcher?

[shido534]

@SilvahDot The first conversation in the game, that's fucking where!

[SilvahDot]

@shido534 whoa!

[thatcacti]

You actually miss 130 skill points here, you get 40 for getting to the kiosk, 50 from giving the kid the candy, and 40 from getting past the lasers.

[ilsamiri7]

@thatcacti What do you mean getting past the lasers? Go back round the other side to smash the two crates after putting the two guys to sleep? That's what I did. :S

[DarthVadent2]

You can supercede the use of several Multitools or Lockpicks by pressing F1 (Inventory) and waiting 20 to 30 seconds. It's an unresolved glitch in the game.

[shido534]

@DarthVadent2 I think powerful bugs like that shouldn't be exploited.

[DarthVadent2]

@shido534 Well, you could employ an alternative approach I suppose. But if you obsessively hoard items like myself, you'll want to use them as sparingly as possible. I never spend any of my Credit Chits, in spite of the fact that they have no inherent monetary value.

[J4evuL]

It's been a little over 2 years since I came across this walkthrough. I'm still watching it, which in itself says a lot, A LOT, about the quality of the walkthrough. Purely awesome. nuff said.

[kjsh987]

when its nonlethal is because in the mission u dont must kill people or u dont kill people because you dont want?

[shido534]

@kjsh987 In spite of all the grammatical errors, I believe the latter.

[kjsh987]

@shido534 so you just neutralize.u dont kill?

[shido534]

@kjsh987 "Neutralize" often means kill. "Incapacitate" is a better word.

[niteshmurti]

hey shido! sorry if this is in ur faq already but why do u collect so many flares? u dont even use them hehehe!!

[WarhawkDrier]

Stealthy, non-lethal, badass?

You're Batman.

[shido534]

@WarhawkDrier Batman but with better shades.

[WarhawkDrier]

@shido534

I'm surprised Batshades don't exist yet.

[crozan11]

can i change the view to 3rd person plz help i wanna see the player when i am playing

[shido534]

@crozan11 Google it.

[jdzero]

@crozan11 You can.. but the view is pretty crappy. The game was designed as an FPS, after all. And there are no mods, to my knowledge, of a 3rd person view, like what you'd get in GoW or RE 4....

[alevsener2]

your annotations make these awesome videos even better

[Superlagg]

Oh god, so much death, more lives you've failed to save. Non-lethal, except so many people die.

[shido534]

@Superlagg This is a walkthrough where I kill as few people as possible, not where I save as many as possible (and for a short period of time; even if all of the NSF survived Battery Park, Simons likely would have them killed).

[stephenlockard]

"But first we will exterminate the NSF terroristsSSSss."

[raspberrit]

Damn, you're better JC than me ;p Maybe beacause I'm a girl? Or maybe I suck at everything I do :(

[ash0ppingcart]

damn, the ambient music in this game make the experience so great!

[Octavium]

@shido534

Cheers, but I think I worked it out. If you leave the way you came in then Anna thinks you are cowardly, if you continue after seeing the Ambrosia out into the kiosk and hide while Anna kills the NSF, she thinks you killed them all.

[shido534]

@Octavium Yeah, when you return to the surface after finding the Ambrosia, Anna will run towards you. If there are NSF grunts in the way, then they're goners. Guess you weren't quite emulating me. :P

[Octavium]

How do you get the NSF to run into the tunnels instead of at Anna? I'm trying to emulate you and they just get slaughtered by her. Then she congratulates me for killing them!

[shido534]

@Octavium I don't get the NSF to run into the tunnels. Anna and the NSF will fight each other at some random time, but I found the Ambrosia and fled before that time passed.

[Plausiblesarge]

have you ever considered installing any of the graphical upgrades, like HTDP or new vision or the DirectX10 renderer?

[shido534]

@Plausiblesarge I've seen the HDTP on YouTube but I'm not really that interested.

[TheMANCINI11]

thats a good glitch you found about blowing the safe with the door nice touch wish i saw you do that befor i wasted a lockpic for it lol in my case i personally think its the other way around you find more lockpics on this game then you do multitool kits cause they show up more in the crates but then again i seem to use more lockpics then anything else so ill take you word for it good vids mate

[BigDickCheney]

Damn, I didn't know you could do that with the hostages. This game is something else.

[throughlou]

Whopps maby i should of shot the kid at the start

[warellis]

This walkthrough has been a dream to watch. Two question though, what exactly do you do with all the ammo you pick up, since it's a non-lethal walkthrough? Do you sell the ammo? Also how come you didn't increase any of your skills with the skill points in the part prior to the start of the game?

[shido534]

@warellis I don't do anything with the extra ammo, and I did allocate my skill points at the start of the game.

[warellis]

@shido534 If you don't do anything with the extra ammo, why pick it up? Does picking it up prevent enemies from having reloads or something? For instance, in Metal Gear Solid 3, destroying the storage areas where ammo is stored, the enemies will eventually run out of rifle ammunition and have to switch to pistols. Is it the same here when you take the ammunition?

[shido534]

@warellis I just pick up any type of ammo because I can.

[jimmyboy2021]

when you open the hatch at 2:49, your health is red?

[shido534]

@jimmyboy2021 I quicksaved and loaded at that point.

[toxictaya]

very nice vid.. 

[jk88124]

i have the game and didnt think much about nonleathal takedowns and theres alot of places i didnt know about and by the way your a class player i would be shite compared to you

[Chayraz2]

being non leathal would be easy if you had stealth augs early on, but deus ex is a smart game, it makes you EARN your ninjahood.

[TonkarzOfSolSystem]

There is a prod charger next to the pillar in the train station, you can see the sillhouette of it at 9:20 on the right of the screen.

[bediest]

These videos are a great walkthrough, I feel as though I played the game myself. (I guess it helps that I recognize a lot of things)

[Ocelot60]

what if you forgot a code do you have to enter the passwords manually on the pc?

[shido534]

All passwords are entered manually on the PC, but all datacubes and important information are automatically added to the "Goals/Notes" screen.

[zulgyan]

Did you intencionally avoid getting the XP for feeding the boy in Castle Clinton?

[shido534]

The 50 skill points aren't really worth the risk of being caught by the NSF (during the conversation).

[Dremeli]

Sometimes it is frustrating that using stealthy weapons alert every enemy while using unsilenced weapons does not alert them. I remember this happening at least in very beginning of the game.

[shido534]

I doubt it's the stealth weapon per se that alerts the enemies because that's never happened to me. I suspect that you're killing the enemy from afar with one shot from an unsilenced weapon; but when you use the stealth weapon, you don't get the instant kill, allowing him to alert others.  Or perhaps you just have a different, buggy version of the game.

[OaverevaO]

@shido534

well not to be a nerd but, you make three sounds, your weapon, hitting the target, and when they go down, if they scream. If someone dies, they scream, so others are altered, if you knock them out, but make a hit sound, people hear, if your gun makes a sound, so the prod is the only weapon that silences all three, so a target can be right next to someone, go down, and not alert the close target.

[congakoenig]

great Videos! I love this game...

[ajbunga]

1:12 lmao, you equip the candy bar and ran at him with it ^_^

[Aethonic]

You put a laser sight on the crossbow, right? It didn't seem like you activated it when you were aiming it at the shootout, I'm not sure if that was intentional. I also found it odd that you put a scope on the GEP instead of the crossbow, but then again, this run has a very different mentality behind it than when I play.

[shido534]

I did activate the laser, but I suppose it's not very visible on YouTube. You might be able to catch its reflection at the top of the road barrier at 6:53.

I didn't care which weapon got the scope because I would never use it for aim; it's just too unstable without weapon skill upgrades.

[wYeL333]

I actually guessed the code to the kiosk, I think it was 666 from what I remember.

[Ironfistconsumerist]

I Love this game. Absolutely amazing story line and music. Never gets old.

[faithhopeandlove100]

using the prod in deus ex 2 is useless, it takes too long for them to pass out.

[Vaporifix]

How many times have you played through DX? You seem to know it front and back so far. Great walkthrough btw, I've been playing it somewhat stealthy but if I screw up I just flamethrower most of the guys as they run at me lol.

[shido534]

I've played through a few times, each with different skill sets and augs, but if you read the comments for my videos you'll find that I missed a few things. Good luck with the flamethrower when you meet the commandoes.

[recoveringhobo]

Oh, and I also did not choose a rocket launcher.

[recoveringhobo]

Thanks for the great walkthrough, but I have one question.

Is it possible to complete the level with only 2 lockpicks at the start? Because I have tried it multiple times and I can't finish the level because of my lack of lockpicks.

[shido534]

Anything I blow up with the GEP Gun in this level is optional, so the one lockpick I use in this video would suffice.

[GAGFEST2000]

were can i get this??? looks kind fun :)

[LuminousPath13]

you can find it on Steam for ten bucks i think.

[arudson]

Great work. I wish all walkthroughs were of this quality!

[juacal]

LOL, I liked the end part when you brought the crate into the train!

[joebear95]

I find it easier to use the baton then the prod. The baton works just as well with combat strength and doesn't require ammo. This is especially true with MJ12 commandos. I can't knock them out with the prod, but with a baton I can easily knock them unconscious.

[mappylp]

Watching you makes nonlethal weapons look pretty badass :P

[JCLounon]

The crate at the end I usually push it into the burning barrel. This can be done with out alerting the guards, cause like you said, they're stupid AI.

[shlomoman]

shido i LOVE your videos dude . thanx

[stigotte]

and i tought i knew evrything about this game :/

[quarkmac]

I agree. EXCELLENT JOB. I study these videos all the time.

Since I know you like to get all the credits you can get, there are some easily accessible ones at 4:01 on a small ledge that you can use the medical crate to reach easily.

[neterwan]

Cool Vid! Very informative!

[Neworbs]

This video series is great. It is a shame that you don't get more comments or views.

I like the annotations that you add, they make the videos much more personal.

[arHei777]

@Neworbs

same here
