About Me:
"When I say proficiency, I mean that perfection in the game which includes a comprehension of all the sources whence legitimate advantage may be derived. These are not only manifold but multiform, and lie frequently among recesses of thought altogether inaccessible to the ordinary understanding. To observe attentively is to remember distinctly. Thus to have a retentive memory, and to proceed by "the book," are points commonly regarded as the sum total of good playing. But it is in matters beyond the limits of mere rule that the skill of the analyst is evinced. He makes, in silence, a host of observations and inferences. So, perhaps, do his companions; and the difference in the extent of the information obtained, lies not so much in the validity of the inference as in the quality of the observation. The necessary knowledge is that of what to observe."

Yes, I suspect you can likely finish the game with hacking level 3 since most of the higher level hacks will have ways around them or codes to find, but as the game progresses the hacks do get more difficult. Still loving your playthrough.

I will most probably get Hacking 3 before long, might be fun to experiment with after all. And as you say, there's probably a lot of info I can't grab with lower hacking. We'll see!

I have sent you a pm with some detailed comments about alpha, beta and omega types, including a link to a website which explains them. Still, the implant is fun to watch in operation, and there is no reason not to use it whenever you like, in fact it will kick in automatically in every critical conversation, and the only option within it is to use the pheremones or not. There are certain options that will only come up if the pheremones are used.

Thanks for all the replies, they would be easier to reply to if you replied at the video itself though! :) The social enhancer will be fun to experiment with, and I think I need all the help I can get in discussions! ;) And thanks with the Chase tips, that will help me out!

@reclusiarchlp - good point. I just wondered about the way it is set up, and suspect, as I say, that it is also cheaper just to change the interface printing rather than have an entire Swedish voice cast. Thanks.

In Sweden it's the norm to release the game in English. I can't really remember any game ever being translated to Swedish (well, one, The Longest Journey, the Norweigan game). To be frank, I wouldn't want to play any non-swedish games in Swedish, I much prefer to listen to the original voice actors!

@TheJerBeare Thanks for the comment. Currently having some video issues since updating flash and Firefox seems to have bolloxed up my game launching! Once I get that sorted out, will be taking on the Ents and resuming the Evil Campaign in BFME.

Here is a sample of what the HTTPS url looks like as compared to http://youtube.com - https://www.youtube.com . If the site offers a secure connection, HTTPS Everywhere will force your browser to use it. Nice to know. Oh, and if you have trouble connecting to sites because of the extension you can of course disable it for that given site.

In a totally irrelevant aside, let me recommend a Firefox extension you may not know about. It's called "HTTPS Everywhere." As the name implies, it forces your browser to attempt to connect to every destination via HTTPS protocol, the same one used by your bank or Paypal and others. Although it is often a slower connection it is a LOT more secure and lots of sites have it available, though not as the default. Even you tube has https available, but not if you don't ask for it, and this extension asks. Thought you might want to know.
