Conversely, if you made the OS Upgrade that provides +5 HP instead provide + 50 HP, it would go from ' maybe worth picking on Impossible, but otherwise garbage' (Higher difficulties lower base HP and lower how much HP you get from Endurance) to 'an amazing pick no matter what you're doing and no matter what difficulty you're on. it would still be a dubious pick due to how narrow and niche its utility is. If you made it so that OS Upgrade flat-out guaranteed an auto-hack, skipping the minigame entirely. specifically when hacking Security Stations. One OS Upgrade makes it so you have +2 to your Hack rating. One way of illustrating the problem is to imagine modifying an OS Upgrade by making its effect much larger. 8 Cyber Modules is nothing, and the beginning-of-the-game boost it provides isn't even that significant.īut the main reason the whole thing is disappointing is how the options lean toward either being overly-specialized or overly-generalized. At the beginning of the game, +8 Cyber Modules might seem like a noteworthy amount, but in the long haul there's nearly 900 Cyber Modules. Or even less ambiguous is the +8 Cyber Modules upgrade, which is just plain a newbie trap. By the time you even have high-end Psi powers, you should already have 4-6 in your Psi stat anyway, making +2 much less dramatic a benefit anyway, and not all the scaling benefits are that important anyway -and the teleport beacon Psi ability doesn't scale at all with Psi. only the highest powers have the line move fast enough for this to be a relevant concern in real play, and if you're really bad at avoiding burnout while trying to get the supercharged effect, the smarter answer is to accept having slightly weaker Psi ability. For example, one OS Upgrade makes it so you don't suffer damage from 'Psi burnout' -this is a mechanic where holding the button after initiating a Psi power causes a little meter to appear with a line that grows to the right, and if you let go of the button once it crosses over into the yellow portion the power is calculated as if you had 2 more ranks in your Psi stat than you actually have, but if you fail to release the button before the line gets all the way to the right instead you fail to use the power and take some damage. Part of this is that a number of the OS Upgrades are just plain terrible. This is a fine little system for giving the player the opportunity to customize their character. You don't need to meet specific requirements to pick an option, you're not forbidden certain options based on class or some such, nothing like that. You can't pick a given upgrade twice, and there's no take-backs, but other than that there aren't really any limits. The basic setup goes thusly: at four specific points in the game, you'll have the opportunity to pick from one of 16 distinct upgrades to permanently apply to your character.
and disappointed me once I got a handle on the game. Post your thoughts about these tweaks below.OS upgrades are one of the mechanics that most excited/intrigued me initially. You don't have to do this but personally, I don't enjoy the default 75 degrees because it feels like I have partially zoomed vision. It'll expand the view a little and makes it possible to be in a corner and see both walls on either side. Removing the will set the first person view of the world into 90 degrees which is the typical widescreen Field of View that a few games force you to sit through like Left 4 Dead, HL2Deathmatch (before the OB update). Now for my favorite one: Look for the line FOV 90. Just a little under that is "d3d_disp_force_filter_scale2d" that I believe Anti-Aliases the text a bit.-"force scaled menu and 2D overlay graphics to always use bilinear filtering, even when scaled an even multiple (smoothness/fuzziness vs pixel perfectness)"

Without doing this, if you play the game on a large screen Resolution like 1080p or 1600x1200, the HUD will not get bigger and will thus be extremely tiny. Remove the semicolon and change the numbers to whatever resolution you want it to act as.įor example: Laptop users (assuming your max is 1366x768) should use this line to make the HUD bigger "d3d_disp_scaled_2d_overlay 1024 600" What this does is increase the size of the HUD by scaling each it based on another resolution. Scroll down until you find the line " d3d_disp_scaled_2d_overlay 640 480" There are alot of lines you can modify to your liking but I'll just cover some basic ones that have a good reason.

Go to your games install directory ">\Steam\steamapps\common\SS2" and look for the file cam_ext.cfg > Open this in Wordpad or Notepad.
