How long of you guys been playing to already fight Big Daddies?

I have gotten the telekinesis and am making my way back to the barricade I have to blow up, but I have yet to come across a Big Daddy other than seeing and hearing one walking.

Granted I take my time and like to explore and really am obsessed with hacking everything and I refuse to use my auto hacks I have found yet, but I feel like from reading everyone's responses I must be taking my sweet ass time.

If you pause the game, at the bottom center is shows you the Little Sisters for the section of the game you're in - how many there are and if you've gotten (rescued/harvested) them. I believe there are only two in the part you're in.

Heh. I enjoy hacking. I think I've only used autohack/buyout to hack health stations if I'm in a rush, and that's usually not often since those are easy to hack. But I definitely enjoy exploring and it's payed off big a couple of times.

i havent got the game but why didnt you just attack the big daddy you saw go by?

He was in a hallway across the water from me. I was in one hallway, and the sea was between us. Hope that makes sense. So I could only see him and hear him, was not near him.

Yep, you are right, there are two, as I noticed that during the pause screen as well. Just curious why I have not crossed their path yet. I already have an idea how I am going to take him out as well.

Definitely. Exploring has really paid off for me so far. I have found quite a few goodies that are obviously good to have.

I believe it's about timing; they seem to be in certain places at certain times. For me it seems like I just stumble across them, but you might want to backtrack some more in your exploration to see if they've ended up somewhere you just were.

Thats what I figured. Honestly, I am in no rush to encounter them. LOL

Also, I only skimmed through the comments on the previous pages since I am at work, but is everyone saving the little girls? Am I the only evil ****** who plans on taking them out? :rofl:

Heh. No you arent :devil: I saved the first one (the one that's pretty much just given to you), but I've harvested all the rest (I think it's like 4 or 5 now that I've harvested). Powerups galore for me. I get the feeling it might bite me in the ass later on, but I'm over it :p

I rescue all of them! :innocent: << (That's me)

You may think you're getting more powerups by harvesting, but as I've rescued all of them, about every two I get a gift for being nice, including 200 ADAM. I believe it works out to be more than what you get by simply harvesting them ;)

Oh yeah, still, it only works out to 40 ADAM less than by purely harvesting them, and I believe the bonus items even it out. Plus you get to feel all warm and fuzzy! :)

I'm in Arcadia as well, but pretty far in it. I haven't played too much, not because I get bored, but because I don't have too much time with school and work.

Meh. I've bought all but one of the powerups (I didn't have the 20 ADAM's that it cost) that I possibly could, and I think right now I have the ADAM's from one harvested sister, but I haven't gotten to a Gathering Garden or whatever it's called.

I beat the game... it's a pretty awesome experience, but whatever review said 25 hours is BS unless you play through it a couple of times or try and go to every area (which I had thought I did, but apparently not). It's still a long game, though, don't get me wrong.

I ended up getting 710 GS or so just playing through pretty much. I saved all the little sisters, though. I played through on easy, as I normally do a first go-around. Not a hard game at all on easy (yes, yes, I know it shouldn't be, only stating).

Ending was pretty anti-climactic though, IMO.

For those of you having trouble finding little sisters... there are tons of big daddies that roam the levels. Just follow one until he calls a little sister out of those hole things.

:crazy: I killed like 3 of them when they were alone...

My collectors edition arrived this morning, the tip of the big daddies drill is broken off, only a small chip mind but still grrr. Anyone know how I go about getting a replacement?

Dude that sucks :/

I was a bit worried that mine would be broken but it's fine :)

I think the developers are sorting out a replacement plan and they'll announce the details when everything is sorted :)

i preordered mine from GAME and expected it today; guess what, the effing postie didnt turn up, its now 10 mins after the latest he has ever come :(

At least you can play it, I've had mine arrive at work but I've got no console. All I can hope to do tonight is pretend the big daddy in my CE is real. :(
