DUBBLEUP Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I must be missing something, but I cant even get passed 3 splicers trying to fight me at once on the very first level of action. I have two splicers shooting at me from different angels while one is chasing after me with a wrench and it only takes 4-5 hits until you're dead. I try to back away from the wrench carrying splicer and strike after he swings, but then he does that move where he leaps at you from 20 feet away! It doesn't help that the first aid kits are very limited at start. I cant possibly see how i would be able to beat any later levels. I'm also saving after every fight and if i keep that up, then this game will take ages. I beat games all the time on the hardest difficulty, but this is just nuts!

veece16 Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 search around for weapons and stay back, hack everything you find. if you wanted it the quick way, (i dont recommend it) do the maintenance thing on your hardrive, and remove the patches, go to fontaine and switch it to hard and you'll get it.

auburn fury Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 search around for weapons and stay back, hack everything you find. if you wanted it the quick way, (i dont recommend it) do the maintenance thing on your hardrive, and remove the patches, go to fontaine and switch it to hard and you'll get it. You don't even need to perform maintenance, then you get brass balls if you haven't used a vita chamber. ¬.¬. Anyway on topic. Just really hammer that save button, everytime you see any enemy, save. Just after a fight, save. Hell if you're doing alright in the middle of a fight, save. I would recommend leaving Big Daddies alone for a while, until you get some better guns then going after them. What i did was use my electric plasmid to stun them, shoot some anti-personel machine gun bullets into them and shock them again. As long as you remember to save loads you should be fine. Good luck!

Deathblow23 Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I can't believe that you guys think this game is THAT hard. Of course it's somewhat hard...but it doesn't rank in the top 5 most difficult games on 360...prolly not even the top 10. CoD 3 - Veteran CoD 2 - Veteran Cod:MW - Veteran Gears 2 - Insane Gears 1 - Insane Dead Space - Impossible(without the cheat) ...there's a few that easily rank above BioShock on Hard mode...

weird carrot Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 bioshock is a very hard game on hard, but try doing L4D 'nothing special' achievment......WOW lol took me many hours to get that one in the whole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B T E R Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 at the start zap them with electrobolt and then whack with the wrench, then do it over and over again until you get a gun. when you have that, aim for the head as it does more damage then the chest.

Telexen Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Not even close. But the first part and the first couple big daddies are harder than the rest of the game because you don't have many tonics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeky 315 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 it's not that hard you can pick and choose your fights on this one though so if you want you can always run away and come back when you are a bit more powerful, and you can save when you choose rather than having to hit checkpoints i'm not sure if COD veteran is harder though i reckon there about the same. nowhere near as hard as left 4 dead though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megafones x360a Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 BioShock is as hard as those really hard shits that you try and do and it feels like its cutting away at your anus. It's so fucking hard, you scream but it doesnt get any easier, it keeps forcing its way out your shit hole until you find yourself done, and you think to yourself. Now that shits out of the way, I'm off to play something good. That's right, no wiping, you want to leave some memory of that mammoth shit that is BioShock around your anus, just so later on you can find skid marks on your underwear and think, hmmm, BioShock.

big red marino Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 I would not say this is the most difficult game on Hard, but I almost did quit after the First Big Daddy. I got 1100 on one playthrough and never had to return to an area. You have to strategize your battles and save often. There are some areas you can hide in to kill Big Daddies and they cannot damage you. Like the Stripper stage in Fort Frolic. I was able to lure every big daddy into there and they cannot damage you when you are on stage. Also, you do need to save often like one of the poster said. Even during battles. Most of the COD's game on Veteran are much tougher...I have not done COD III yet and Mile High Club is the bane of my existence. However, doing EXPERT on L4D legit is by far the toughest to complete, even with 3 other decent players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boun7y Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 (edited) lol honestly i just ran through everything heh same here, though i found the first 3 big daddy's a challange, untill i found this. [ame= ] [/ame] the winterblast plasmid freezes the bigdaddy long enough for you to reload you'r shotgun (Electro Buck). btw i used this method untill i got the trapbolts because thats much easier to take them down imo.

Corron Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 (edited) Really this game is not that hard.. I just finished this game in one play through, on hard with vita chambers disabled. I did not buy any health upgrades or eve, just max out your tonics. I did not use anything but the wrench. Sports boost is super important and so are things like armored shell. I used the electro shock plasmid religiously and hacked everything I saw.. Defeat big daddies with security bulls eye and never take damage, or use six trap bolts an stand back. The last boss is easy just use the chemical thrower with electric gel or napalm. Oh and SAVE all the time.. Call of Duty Veteran is much harder.

big red marino Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Damn I wish I had that method for when I played...I knew the ELECTRO BUCK was good on them...but the freeze method rocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Slippery I Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 I found it hard at first. But once you get the camera and start snapping pictures, they start to fall easier. I use the Security Bullseye Method for Big Daddies, just set off an alarm and make them target it instead. It doesn't even attack you at all, and it conserves ammo for other encounters. The wrench is the key weapon of the game once you've filled some research bars up. Electro-bolt+wrench hit is often a 1-2 hit kill against the normal splicers and it conserves ammo for your other weapons as well. It is pretty hard at the start, but just remember to be cautious and save often and you will be fine. It got alot easier for me once I was about mid-way through Arcadia. Just make sure you take alot of pictures for the damage bonuses, that is the crutial part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velho lobodomar Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 this game is pretty hard at the beginning, but it gets easier later on, stick to it. remember to use the environment for you favor. many times when there´s a bunch of splicers together, there´s also some water for you to use the electric plasmid and toast them all.

Mongolian Beef Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 There are many, MANY harder games than this. I actually found hard pretty easy, all you really need to do is strafe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezekiel 08 Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 This is my second playthrough on Hard without Vita Chambers and it's still a cake walk. Just use the Wrench for the whole game and equip any Plasmids that increase the strength of the said weapon. After researching the enemies, you'll be killing everything with 1-4 hits which takes a matter of seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fubo Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Compared to other games such as Call of Duty's Veteran and Gears of War Insane, this is a walk in the park. It can start off hard but you get used to it and adjust pretty quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B Dog116 Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Considering it was my second playthrough I didn't find the game too difficult. The first Big Daddy of the game was pretty tough but after when you have all your weapons and you plan properly its pretty easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OTool3 Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 I didn't think it was that hard. It can be annoying, but if you play smart you can get by. I remember when I played through on hard, I used security bullseye on the big daddies a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
