      Couldn't beat 1999 mode until I got the extra fusions(?) after buying the season pass. And I only did that because I was so close to a platinum, haven't played the game since.

      @robertmurdock1848 Bioshock's Survivor, and it's not particularly close. BS2 is cool but insanely easy. 1999 is fun and challenging, but pretty easily doable with a few different setups. Survivor is pretty brutal early on though.

      Nah, in BioShock, I didn't take on the BDs until after I got the crossbow and had done most of the camera upgrades.

    I completed 1999 mode recently! I think I said this during your recent livestream,but it was such a fun and exciting thing to accomplish.
    Regarding Gear, whenever I'd find a voxephone, I would switch to the EXTRA EXTRA hat (I think it's called) which grants you money when you pick up the audio diarys, then switch back to my previous gear after.
    Possession on vendors also grants you some money if you're in desperate need of it.
    Good luck with your run if you're trying it for yourself!

  • @marcespinoza6068
    @marcespinoza6068 Před rokem +8

    My advice would be upgrading Possession as soon as possible, this vigor doesn't get enough love especially on this mode. When it's upgraded to have those possessed kill themselves when it wears off, it's a huge help especially against Rocket and Volley enemies as using this to kill them will save you a ton of ammo. My next tip is making sure you have Return to Sender fully upgraded before the final fight at the end and then place RtS traps all over the blue engine (particularly the front) and you can take your sweet time defeating the waves of enemies. By the time I finished the final wave only about 15% of the engine's health was depleted.

    One way to defeat Lady Comstock without the devils kiss trap is to use shock jockey to disintegrate the possessed enemies. Zap them and then shoot them. If their corpses are destroyed then she cannot revive them again. Eventually she will have no backup and can be very easily defeated when no one else is shooting at you.

    • @MisterJohnDoe
      @MisterJohnDoe Před rokem +1

      Charge invincibility upgrade + spamming hailfire at point blank also worked for me. Tunnel Vision helps with this method if you have it, and maybe Angry Stompers too if you're careful with the timing.

  • @co_conspirator
    @co_conspirator Před 10 dny

    What worked for me for most encounters was before a fight I set up a ton of shock jockey traps in a perimeter and just used the undertow upgrade to pull groups of enemies in. Combine with storm, overkill, and ghost soldier and i just point undertow and win. I keep upgraded crows as a backup. Lady comstock fight was easy, set up shock jockey traps but I used upgraded crows instead of undertow, the revived enemies are perma stun locked by crow traps and shock jockey while you focus on killing her.

    I did 1999 mode like 2-3 times now ( I have the season pass thing which kind of makes the run easier unfortunetly) , I do agree with most of your tips except for a couple of things.
    1. You don't need to fully upgrade Return to Sender, the most important upgrade is the boost (the one that doubles the duration and decreases salt cost), the other one is less useful, especially if you are not maining the SMG.
    Undertow is fun and all but Shock Jockey and Charge practically make it redundant unfortunetly, I would recommend running it though with a Shotgun or a Volley gun (if you like it that much) and preferably with Blood to Salts to offset the salt cost, you do need to fully upgrade this one though to take advantage of the alternate fire.
    Undertow fully upgraded makes Downtown Emporia's snipers and enemies in general ( except for Siren fights) a breeze more or less, but you don't need it, Shock Jockey is just as good especially when fully upgraded.
    2. I don't fully agree on your choice of gear, they are great picks but if we are being real, Winter Shield is the best piece of gear if you want to make 80% of your run on easy mode, It's not fun but If you just want to finish the run.
    Blood to Salts is a very good shirt too, I do prefer it over Winter Shield though.
    As for pants, brittle skin is a very powerful piece of gear, especially when paired with charge so you can apply it more easily.
    And Overkill for boots.
    I do try to keep healing boots and pants on me ( Last Man Standing, Vampire's Embrace) in case I do fuckup or something.

    Just my personal recommendation for dealing with Beasts. Hit them with Possession ASP. Beasts are tanky as all hell and carry a heavy weapon. Trying to whittle down their armor uses a ton of ammo and takes time. If you Possess one they can do some damage to other enemies and then kill themselves. A win win. sm

    I like 1999 mode so much. And generally this mode is fun and easy for challengers. All points in this video is really accurate and sort of how I played it.
    One tip: use possession on the vending machines to always get a quick buck fix
    2: have all locations of infusions remembered
    3:exploit your weapons range
    Most of these tips are small things but huge. The weapons is always fair to upgrade. Start with the pistol then smg then shotgun then your presence of what ever weapon would be good. Super useful vigors in generally possession to self kill enemies charge for shield and return to sender to protect damage. Undertow is a life saver when you can’t fight. That’s really it from my experience to which I really enjoy and hopefully anyone who sees this tries this out as well as this videos tips.(such a favorite game mode)

    Yes, i achieved it on 360 and on the remastered version.
    My way:
    Change your gear pieces very often to adapt to any situation, exemple you ran out of ammo, or salt...
    Your best friend is the "Possession" Vigor, and by the end "Undertow" is also a must as you will have countless occasions to just throw ennemies out of Columbia wich is fun to see.
    In the last fight *SPOILER ALERT* where you can use Songbird, make a "Tram rail" build with the gear parts, specially the "Winter Shield" combined with "Death From above", soon as you get in danger jump on the rail and down, you will be invincible.
    Then make sure to possess the Patriots regularly, they will stop shooting at the power plant, use songbird on Zeppelin and ships exclusively and as soon as possible, never waist time on ennemies.

    Personally, I only play 1999 Mode, Scavenger Hunt. Not just for bragger's rights, but because I think refraining from buying supplies is the ideal way to play the game (saves money for upgrades and respawns). Personally, I think that the upgrades and the respawns did great harm to the game, but the combat, especially on 1999 Mode, can be very addictive and creative. I hope more people realize that one day.
    A couple recommended tactics of mine are:
    Combine Rising Bloodlust with Brittle Skin, then use Charge and Shotgun. Enemies will get weaker as you keep getting stronger. It's especially helpful in Comstock House.
    Combine Health for Salts with Vampires Embrace, Burning Halo, and Blood to Salts. When facing large numbers of enemies, using these Gear with Charge gives you a near limitless supply of Salts (you can keep spamming Charge, and if you run out, you'll just use your health, which will restore if you kill an enemy with Charge).
    Combine Return to Sender with Ghost Posse/ Ghost Solider. Attacks with Return to Sender are considered Trap attacks, and cost significantly less, so combining it with these Gear change it into, effectively, a turret-dropping power, which can be insanely helpful against Patriots (attack an enemy behind them with Sender, and their gun will turn on the Patriot's gears while the Patriot is firing on you.

    Let's be honnest. 1999 mode isn't fun, but damn is it an ego trip when you've done it. Its also super unbalanced. The game is really not made for it. Its impossible until you find Elizabeth. Then it's annoying. Lady Comstock is luck. Just running from the place you spawn to the stairs, you will die, and then you'll run-out if ammo. Rinse repeat until you get lucky. If I can add snything to what Erick ssidbeich really helped me during the zeplin fight is that, anything with even a little bit of invincibility, you want to take it over almost anything. Also, speed boosts tons of speed boosts and peak when the enemies are reloading. Also. Never shoot turrets. Always vigor them. Genuinely no use in shooting.
