Quick Overview Locational Damage Advanced AI for enemies and NPC's Real World Locations Alternate ways to complete missions Interactive levels RPG Aspects Detailed Overview Locational Damage » How quickly you can take out an enemy is greatly affected by where you place your shot. Shots to the legs and arms yield minimal damage which will incapacitate enemies. Shots the body are more effective than shots to the legs and arms but it takes quite a few shots before you can actually take the target out. Last we come upon the old favorite, head shots. The head is an extremely difficult place to hit but once you land your shot the results are devastating. Advanced AI » The AI for enemies and Non Playable Characters (NPC) is great in Deus Ex. So you go up to an NPC for some info in exchange for a cold beer. You try to give him what you have in your inventory, but it isnt cold. All you have in your inventory is a warm beer and a fire extinguisher, what do you do? You lay down the beer and use the fire extinguisher on it to make that baby cold. Since you used the fire extinguisher on the beer the NPC knows the beer is now cold and gives you the info you need. Real World Locations » Cant afford to travel in real life? Well just buy Deus Ex and you can travel the world, visiting Liberty Island N.Y, to Europe and even Asia. While in Hong Kong don't forget to check out all the lovely and beautiful women. So strap on your seatbelt boys and girls because when you play Deus Ex you are in store for one hell of a ride. Alternate ways to complete missions » Accomplishing a mission can be achieved in a variety of ways. Running around the level killing everything in sight is one way you might be able to complete a mission. Another way would be the stealthy approach, avoiding combat or picking them off from a distance. Rather than shooting you can avoid enemies by distracting them, crawling, smoke grenades, and by staying in the shadows. Either way you choose I guarantee you will have a great time. Level Interaction » Interact with the level, dont just run around like a chicken with its head cut off. Sometimes busting a window may be your only entry to a special area, if you need some light just hit a switch. Move boxes, chairs, office equipment, plants, and even pick bodies. Pop and vending machines aren't just for looks, if you have some cash you can purchase things from them. If you are cheap then find a water fountain which will give you +1 health each drink. Feeling stressed? Take some time to shoot some pool. These are just a few of the many things you can do. RPG Aspects » It is important how you interact with NPC's because sometimes they have vital information which could be very useful when trying to accomplish a mission. Make the wrong decision and you will find yourself taking the more difficult route, not getting any ammo, or any other items which you will need to finish a mission successfully. So try to make the right choices, as it can affect your future.
