Please tell me you played this game at night?
I wish I was kidding about the schizophrenic part I’ve played this game in real life at night. Been homeless. Have a woman who was with me when I was homeless who tried to kill me a few times. Take medicine that takes away the memories. Have the wonderful comedowns MC has. The parallels are scary but I was never black ops or military. Also not physically handicapped. I’ve seent similar things to anomalies before. Had power outages while they were coming for me had everyone all of a sudden not respond to any messages/calls as I have feelings of being hunted. My weirdest is one night I had voicemails from a number that when I tried to call back said in an official voice that the call cannot be completed as dialed as tower H E L L is not currently routeable. The voicemails sounded like people moaning like dying and breathing laboriously. I tell myself it was just a prank someone played on me but no one has owned up to it. I know the person I showed the voicemails and routing message to quickly got in the car and left me alone dealing with it in bfe. I threw away the phone and got a new #. But all this yada yada to say I love the eeriness of this game it captures some aspects of the kinda real life equivalent I went through and that anomalies aren’t just completely imagination in my experience. Schizophrenia is fun
.
I think I may have encountered a coding error at the end?
Spoiler
I died the first time, so I reloaded the checkpoint to try again but it did not reset my WP grenade use. And I think I need it to not die fighting the Anomaly.
Extremely based game, kudos to the author. Would love another adventure in this universe.
Wow, just wow! Just finished it, and it was really worth the wait!
I really like the part where the anomaly finally finds you, and you have to hide with your eyes covered by Ulysses. That part was written so well, and got me proper scared for Whiskey. The whole time I was playing, I kept waiting for Whiskey to die from all that craziness, but so glad that didn’t happen for me in the end
I got Ending 11, but will definitely be trying out all the other endings!
Also found a small style error where more text got italized that it should:
Finished it in two days, not long but very compact game.
One thing I really appreciate is that the author certainly respect the reader for reading some background informations. Once I learned that fire is useful against it, I decide to keep the grenade at all cost. Guess what it actually worked in the end.
One thing that I found odd is that the best armor in the game can only stop a rifle caliber. In my understanding some modern bullet proof plate can do the same. Level IV plate can even stop armor piercing rifle rounds. Since the story is based on a future world I would assume material science would be more advance and there should be better defensive technologies. But this is only a minor thing.
Can anyone please tell me how to get 5/5 timeliness at Chapter 44? I already reached out for the door and dropped my supplies, idk what else to do.
The game has several options to utilize your flash bang, there’s one instance that’ll help you save time by a huge amount, before the Manhattan Bay sequence
Is it during the corpo gunfight? The one where whisky says “We’re doing this like Yalumia-six”?
One chapter after that
Damn, thanks. I finally got it
I think it’s combined? The time you spend at the corpo building decides the time you arrive at the port. In corpo building make sure you don’t overuse your shotgun (It will save a lot of time later), and don’t get too many injuries. Otherwise you pass out at somepoint and lose time.After you arrive at the ship just play along, there will be a point where it asks you if you want to abandon your shotgun, don’t do it, it saves time later on. For the backpack I guess you can abandon it, it didn’t do anything in my run.
Finally finished. Started reading Whiskey Four a day after the game released and it was so good. This author never misses. I think I place both ITFO and Whiskey-Four in top 5, maybe top 3, of IFs and I’ve likely read over a hundred by now.
The long wait was worth it.
Why does Yalumia Six HQ’s name is Jakarta Baru?
finished playing the game, loved it. btw i need help whats the requirements for being able to get the “join GUNI” ending? its always grayed out for me and i played the game twice.
just finished the game: had to settle for an ending that wasn’t my first choice though - i didn’t have a certain item on me, so wasn’t able to deal with a… thing. the conclusion made me cry >< ^^, and i couldn’t bring myself to let it be the end for my Whiskey and Uly, so had to restart from a checkpoint…
and wow… i mean, i loved this game when it was a WIP, so it’s not like it’s a surprise that i love the finished version. still - it was so intense and really great ^^. thank you for making it ^^
and now i’ll need to replay it from the beginning ^^. after i get some sleep >< ^^
How were you able to save at a checkpoint? COG platform doesn’t seem to ever have that option
I believe you need to keep flirting with Castle and not get the perfect run/overachiever achievement (that seems to eventually force you to either stay in the AIU or desert)). Then at the end you can join GUNI and get Ending 7 which is where you start a long term relationship with Castle
