How many times have you regretted not to save your game.None,20 ,50, 100,?? BRIAN

I use the same save game name over several times before incrementing t anoter one, and name save 'special' when making a notable transition (eg; sv0012 ?? times then sv0013, etc.)

Sometimes I end up needing to go way back to redo something. But not too often...Once I had taken the Bank elevator in Arnika after following the tunnel in the Jail - and it took some time before I found that - once the Bank Guards saw me...all of the 'cops' in Arnika wanted to kill us...Doh !

I only use quicksave. It automatically switched between 3 names and I never needed more.

Ditto Loudhy.

Ditto Loudhy except for one save on exit under one of the names used for that party, and it looks like it would be wiser to leave some options open for the future.

Admittedly there have been times that something happened and it was too late to go back and fix. Oh, well.

You can quicksave the game? What's the keyboard command for this function?

Loudhy · 10-08-2004, 02:08 AM

It's "q" . But IIRC you can only use it after the update to 1.2.4.

That must depend on why they attacked you. When they attacked me for giving them Rattus's note, I blew them away and nobody got upset.

There's also a range thing involved--even if the Higardi Patrols can't see you, if they're within (i think) Long of the fight with the Bank Guards when it first starts, then they side with the Guards.
