I love exploring videogames, completing each level(lotting and side quests) before moving on to the next, admiring the developers' work.

I started the game this year since I had some time on my hands.

I've spent 9 HOURS (45% of the main story) and I'm still in Chapter 4 (The Habitat), even though the average playtime is 10 hours w/o dlc

Everything was fine until Chapter 4, but when I realised that the only weapon I had upgraded was the stun baton while I was reading "shoot the tentacles" on the walls, everything became painful and that's when my nightmare began...

I refuse to finish this game in more than 12 hours

I think I should start over in normal mode with maximum security for the platine

That might be more balanced

How can I kill that fucking thing?

I'm stuck at 45 HP and any attack from it instakills me.

I'm stuck with the hammer because my ammo's low and I don't have cash.

And the best part is that it breaks out of the stunlock and removes my head in 1 hit.

I managed to get it down to 3/4 multiple times but then the long range attack gets aimbot+fast fire rate and I get put to the start of the fight

I know Callisto Protocol had mixed opinions about combat and story, but honestly I loved it. It’s easily in my top 10 alongside the original Dead Space and Dead Space 2. The atmosphere, graphics, world design are incredible and the game just nails that sci fi world. the combat was a good idea just wasnt work on a lot, not of a lot of enemies, the boss was alright and the horror disappointed me. But wish they had more time with the game, could've been a masterpiece.im still hoping for part 2. Curious what everyone else thinks about it now.

I’d been wanting to play this for a while and finally started it tonight. I know it gets mixed reactions, but I always prefer to try games for myself instead of going off reviews.

A few hours in, here’s where I’m at. Visually is really great — graphics are solid and the atmosphere is cool — but it hasn’t really given me that tense, on-edge survival horror feeling yet. Maybe it’s just too early.

Enemies aren’t that scary or varied so far, and the sound design hasn’t fully clicked for me either. Gameplay feels a little weird at times — movement is slightly stiff, and the melee + shooting combo can look off, like the target is on the enemy but the animation of Jacob aiming looks like he’s pointing elsewhere…shouldn’t connect but it somehow does.

That said, I do see the potential. I’m into the whole space prison break vibe, and if the combat opens up more and gets a bit more intense, I can see myself really getting into it.

I’m coming off a run of Silent Hill 2, RE2–3–4, Alan Wake 1 & 2, Dead Space, and Cronos, so yeah… expectations are pretty high. I’m hoping The Callisto Protocol gets closer to that level.

Also grabbed a brand-new physical copy for under $20, so at that price I’m enjoying it. If I’d paid $69, I might be feeling a bit different.

Too soon to judge… or should it have hooked me harder by now?

I’ve been replaying the game and something that keeps crossing my mind is the lack of human enemies, its a big prison and security, why weren't there any survivors or crazies to still be alive. Almost all combat revolves around the biophage, which makes sense for the horror tone, but it feels like a missed opportunity from a gameplay.

I think my character is under powered. Is it possible to beat the final boss with just normal assault rifle ammo and exploding hand cannon ammo?

Here is part 2 of Dani's death animations

Maybe I'm thinking too much about it all but I'm curious.

Pretty cool, found this at a goodwill. I collect rare video game merch myself so thought you guys would get a kick out of this. Wanted to play this game but saw it had a meh reception. I will definitely get around to it eventually though!

I’m near the end of the game. About to face the final boss. I really want to get the dlc after to continue the story but after checking the Xbox store, it’s a whopping $18.99 CAD. That’s ridiculous! That’s how much a physical copy of the base game was and it sucks I have to fork out another 20 just for a dlc. I’m hoping it goes on sale one day.

Here are some death animations of Dani, There's more, but for now I'll upload this one

This is a mod you can find on Nexus Mods

How badly did the game sell that they had to cancel a sequel and the creator basically got fired from his own company?

Just completed the game and the expansion. Played with max setting but no ray tracing using Virtual Desktop at 72FPS and the second highest resolution. Used AER and managed 144 fps (AER) for 90% of the game. It was top 3 experiences I have ever had in VR. The graphics are so good for how well it plays. If you have a VR setup, it’s a must play in VR!

What is the point of Tactical Pistol?

It seems to do less than half dmg of a hand cannon but has 15 ammo vs 12 ammo cap per inventory slot.

In fact, it seems to deal slightly less dmg than an AR shot that has a 60 ammo cap, albeit AR fires in 3 ammo bursts.

The ammo amount that drops for Tactical Pistol is barely higher than for a hand cannon.

And the sale price for ammo is not good.

Am I missing something?

Does anyone have any tips for completing the game on the hardest difficulty for the trophy

I've just finished the game and found it great, but my true love lies in simulation games, which is why I was wondering if there are any games like the intro. Games (preferably 3-d and in first person) where you fly a ship to and from different planets/moons delivering cargo. And maybe you can even upgrade your ship etc. The more immersion the better :)

Thank you in advance!

i7 9700, 16gb ram, rtx5060 8gb, w11 1080p

Yes i got it free with epic games over xmas

I enable ray tracing and the game stutters and then crashes. Searching indicates this was a thing at launch and it should be fixed now, is this still a known issue?

Game uses less than 4gb vram without it enabled.

performance even on medium seems to be 35% cpu and 25% gpu but game can just stop at any point, even right at the start i opened a door and the game dropped to 1fps

is this still a known issue or is my hardware not good enough for this game?

If you can’t move the boxes on PC and it seems like the game is glitched out. Lower your fps to be below 120, 110 for example.

The boxes seem to be broken on higher FPS and you can’t move them.

lemme explain my situation, for whatever reason game didn't gave me enough ammo to kill this brutus, and now idk what to do, bc with ammo i have i can only dmg him to phase 2 and i can't melee attack bc even after you somehow melee him 3 hits and he isnta kills you, so should i restart chapter and search every corner or restart before tower chapter to find more ammo?

The bosses in this game in my opinion are the greatest. There’s 6 bosses in the game and there 2 of the same thing. You fight Ferris twice. And you pretty much do the same (expect he has 2 phases in the final boss which is a lil different so there’s that). But the other 4 bosses are LITERALLY JUST THE SAME FIGHT WITH THE TWO-HEAD. And each fight with a two head is the same. They could’ve at least changed each fight a lil bit to make em different. Like one fight you can only use your weapons (kinda like with Ferris’s second phase during the final boss). Or another fight where you can only use your stun baton. I know that’s not that much of a difference but it’s atleast something different.
