[QUOTE="Miroku32"]So, ummm, has anyone tried 1999 Mode? How is it? seanmcloughlin
I'm currently working through it. Going for the "Scavenger Hunt" achievement (beat 1999 mode without ever buying anything from a Dollar Bill vending machine). It's been pretty brutal. Wasn't too bad early on, but then I got toÂ
[spoiler] the hunt the three tears section, and had to fight lady comstock's ghost a couple times. That was ridiculous. Once I was able to get around a glitch I mentioned earlier, and equip the "Blood for Salts" shirt (40% chance the enemies drop salts on death), it got much more doable. Definitely not looking forward to that last fight. [/spoiler]
Edit: DONE!
The final fight wasn't nearly as bad as I expected. All it took was [spoiler] fully upgraded Devil's Kiss, droppin charged up traps everywhere, wearing the "Storm" hat, which makes the effect spread to other enemies when you kill someone with devils kiss, and the "Blood for Salt" shirt, which gives you salt when enemies die 40% of the time, and strategic timing of Songbird attacks. [/spoiler]
Thank God I don't care about achievements :P
I normally don't either. But it's Bioshock. :P And I noticed after my first playthrough that I only had like 5 achievements left, glanced over them out of curiosity, saw the description for Scavenger Hunt, and I was like, "thems fightin words, Bioshock".Â
