Hi guys, I’m really struggling with the Stratford tower chapter because I’m trying to get all the trophies so I want to get to the part where Simon and Connor briefly interact on the roof.

The problem is that no matter what I do I cannot get Simon up to the roof. I’m playing on PC and it asks me to mash W to save him but no matter how much I mash it, he always gets shot before reaching the stairs and we have to leave him in the control room. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a specific way to mash the keys? Is it just a glitch that it won’t register for me?

EDIT: For anyone else struggling with this, I found a fix I think, that could apply for others struggling with non registering key mashes. I set frame rate to 60 fps rather than the standard 30 and it worked the next time I tried that chapter. Will try others I couldn’t get with this fix too.

I know this is not remotely in the cards, but indulge me. In the last day or 2 I played DBH a lot (did so to finally get all achievements which I just did tonight, "I'll Be Back" was the last one and pretty fun) and I started thinking about how cool it would be if there were an option for Markus (or Connor in games where Markus is gone and Connor takes his place) to fight and kill Perkins. That guy sucks big time and it would be fun to kill him.

I guess it makes perfect sense why this isn't an option because he's a relatively high-ranking FBI agent and it would be odd for him to take part in the actual battle/defend the camps from Markus. He wouldn't be the one getting his hands dirty. Even so, I'm sure there could be some scenario that would make sense for Markus to find and fight him - maybe after storming the camps Markus has an option to track down a fleeing Perkins and his small FBI team to get revenge. Regardless, I just wanted to kill that mfer and wish I could.

Some similar games that give players many choices for branches stories like Knights of the Old Republic have received unofficial expansions, often from fans (I think sometimes using files of stories/options that were originally written and intended to be in the game but were eventually discarded by the devs). Let's just fantasize - are there any story options/player choices you wish could be added to create some new resolutions in this way? I'd love to hear any. So far killing that backstabbing fuck is all I've got.

I'm so moved. I'm just speechless. feels like I need to play it a million times to see all the various scenarios I could have gone through. An absolute masterpiece. Probably need to sleep on it to fully camprehend what I just finished

Assuming you choose that particular route, how come Carl doesn't get Markus rebuilt, even if it's just Kara-style with a memory wipe? Carl seemed to have a distinct personal connection to Markus and it seemed odd that he would be okay with letting him be chucked out into an android landfill. It makes sense if Carl isn't around and it's just another defective android, but surely most of Markus' damage is not inflicted by the police (i.e. missing legs) and were simply a by-product of his being disposed of afterwards. Carl also clearly has a bit of money too, given that he has a best-that-money-can-buy home help android in the first place (+ that house).

Was it just that the story really couldn't go on without Markus rebuilding himself? I felt that Carl was probably one of the few people who would have let their android go if he were to be asked by them.

I just completed the game for the first time and man it went down hill so fast

On the conner side of the game i tried to be the most human I could and want to interact with hank a lot and even defected to join the deviants.

I love Karas story so much there was so much tension and man it was hard to trust anyone after the reset but I still tried have faith in others. I tryed to get Canada but couldnt steal the tickets from the family. When i found out i could use the river i had hope sadly the stroy ripped it out from me i should have protected Alice intead of hiding but now karas alone.

Marcus's side was so hard on one hand I knew the peaceful method would have been the right choice but i thought showing that we can fight back and show restraint would work but on made it worse. I thought after jereko got attacked it really isn't easy to be a pacifist and sadly my anger got so many killed and not we got a full on war and Detroit is cherenobol 2.0

Also was it a good idea to let Chole go i kind miss her already.

All and all I love the story but now I dont know what to do

So..... i recently beat the Game for the first time and im currently already re-playing it.

I recently took this survey you are being "thrown at random".

When it came to the Favorite Character, i was a bit confused. The thing is: i can totally see, why most people would choose Connor. I can totally understand why Connor is VERY likeable.

But Markus only after Kara? And only so few choose Markus?

Come on, dude.

No one can take away the (at least in my opinion) literal two strongest scences in the game from Marcus:

His Protest and his March.

Without a Joke, those two missions are so fucking Genius.

For the Protest (I choose a peacful one) i thonk its obvious. Once you free them: "Jericho: Leader" and the "draw our sign", "I think, so i am"

And the March explicitly, how Marcus just points at Androids and they just Join. And the music and the Atmosphere.

Both scenes are so fucking Genius, AND (i couldn't think of a better word for these two scenes)

they felt....... prohetical.

And by the way, no one cwn take the whole Final Missions away from Marcus

I've recently bought DBH from epicgames but I've had problems continuing the story. When I first set the game up, there were no other problems other than the low quality of graphics (the graphic card does not exactly meet the min requirements according to a friend so it was ok) I'm not familiar with game (I only know the characters a little) and I was trying to learn how to navigate through it so I started playing. I played the hostage scene with Connor, bought paint for a guy with Markus and lastly went home with Kara. I think it was like an introduction to the game and characters?

Anyways, the first shutting down of the game happened just as Kara was in the car with the other man driving. I thought maybe it was lagging or too hot so I tried to open it again ("continue the story"). It opened and started from the part where Kara was in the android shop but the graphics were really bad. When the car part came, it shut down again. Than I gave it one more chance and tried to start the story. The game got stuck on the uploading part. And I left it alone, thinking maybe it would be better once the laptop cooled down.

Unfortunately, since then, it hasn't opened the story. It always gets stuck uploading and shuts itself down before it reaches %90.

I'm not sure what's wrong, I've talked with a friend and we've tried to reduce the ram usage while gaming. We deactivated the starting apps.

I didn't know where to ask so I came here and if you could help me, it would be amazing.
