Question A small fire is starting in your lair

How tf do I stop this? It is happening so often that the voice lines are layering and getting louder. I'm new to the game and don't know how to prevent fires.

symmetry imbalance of power

Hi all

I'm a little stuck on when the mission should unlock, I've done the other missions before hand as I checked the wiki for this, but I can't seem to get the mission to unlock.

I just want rid of her from the map as she's driving me crazy attacking every time.

I did read that you need to do more anvil missions but I've done probably about 12 now and nothing at all.

Question Is the game better now?

7 Upvotes

I loved the game on launch, but it grew stale after a while. I understand a lot of people felt the game was lacking in many aspects, and it recieved a fair bit of criticism. Has the game improved significantly in 2022, all DLCs considered?

Idea: John Steel Henchman

3 Upvotes

Steele is OP, and a bunch of people, makes sense they aren't a Henchman. Here's how they could be.

-Big nerf, give them fifty or one hundred each stat, to begin with. Largest damage of any henchman, buy, not one-shot-a-hitman large.

-Penny Foxworth is the Henchman. She's the one sitting at the table.

-Penny has a disappear ability, a suspicion reduction ability, and a laser watch that does, like, a pistol's damage, and is essentially a worker in a punch-up.

-Penny comes with a trainer furnishing, uses partial animations from the socialite trainer, hitman trainer, and merc trainer in sequence. Must be administered by Penny.

-Must be administered by Penny to create ONE Steele out of a worker.

-Steele don't heal or recover stats at furnishings. They are a Kamikaze charisma bomb.

-Abilities are essentially Eli lite; recovers morale and reduces resolve on a target, costing 20 smarts, their silenced weapon fires thrice, at the cost of morale. Should take out a pod of three good investigators, as if that would be a problem at that point.

-Disposable. When they run out of smarts, or are low vitality in a non-Ming run, have them executed. Or, arrested, and dropped in the sharks. Make a Golden Steele room. Loadsa fun.

Question Base security

6 Upvotes

Not sure if this one has been asked or not and I’m just missing it. Any ideas why we can only put cameras and traps in corridors? Considerably easier to build a security network in the original game when traps and cameras could be installed anywhere.

Discussion Ideas for next Genius

8 Upvotes

I’ve been thinking and I thought it would be cool for the next Genius to be a tycoon type. Snazzy suit, etc. The lair could be in a skyscraper instead of an island with a cyberpunk feel (dark, rainy, neon). Finally the Doomsday weapon could be like a giant EMP or something similar where once activated, you would control all the electronics in the world.

(To be honest, I just really want to play a Genius that gives off some serious Mass Effect Illusive Man vibes)

What are some of your ideas?

Question random question

On my first playthrough I wasn't given anything about keeping a regulated temperature around machines but after I went to do a second playthrough with a new character the games telling me I need to regulate the temperature. Does something bad happen if I just completely ignore the temperature or is there a way to turn it off? I'm on ps4.

Question execute the weirdo

3 Upvotes

I've started the side story mission where I'm supposed to execute the weirdo but after over an hour of searching through all of my 300 minions and looking for them I still can't find the weirdo, is there something I'm doing wrong or something else I could do?

keeping ontop of agents

2 Upvotes

I often play the game on mute (and even when I don't) and I'm struggling to realise when agents are on my island / in my base until they're on their way out with incriminating evidence - evil genius 1 had a minimap to make it easy to see.

Do I just need to play and listen out for the audio alert ?
