To people who have tried out the preview build:

does it play like the original one or has it become a cover shooter now? I mean do we have optional paths to do a given mission like in the original?

Preview builds are bullshit, never download them as it harms the devs.

I don't feel that way. The developers are asking us to invest $60 into the game without any demo. I've been burned too many times (even at the $40 price point I make purchases at) to nto take advantage of a leaked build. When was the last time you've seen a PC demo of a single player game? Even if it is released, it is done after the game's come out.

And in this particular case, the devs themselves are asking people what the reaction to their game is like.

It plays a lot like the original. We won't know till after the release if it is as nuanced and detailed as Deus Ex (which surprises gamers after 10+ years). For example, there was a level in the preview where I had to infiltrate a building to proceed. I spotted about 4 completely different ways to enter it. Each route would have been accessible based on your augmentations/play style.

wow dude!! Reading this makes me so happy! Now, I'm actually looking forward for this game.
 
....My way to aviod getting burnt like someone mentioned is just DL the *ahem*, PreBuild, Alpha whatever version.... if it suits my fancy, I will pay its full price on Steam no issues, just to have it in my game repository to be played anytime, else it simply gets delete and never thought about.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution on PC: hands-on with the best version of the game

Ars said:
"We are obviously a little biased, but for us here at Nixxes, the PC version really is the version you should play," Nixxes President Jurjen Katsman stated. "...The extra crispness of the enhanced resolution, effects, and frame-rate, really give you superior visuals. And the speed and accuracy that you get from playing with mouse and keyboard compared with a gamepad, at least for me personally, makes it a pretty easy choice."

We agree. The game looks and plays better on the PC, and it's clear that extra time and effort were spent making sure Human Revolution doesn't feel like a console game when you play on the PC.
 
Plan to start this as soon as I'm done with Ratchet & Clank. Got the 360 version locked and ready to go. :D

Are magazine scans allowed?

Anyhow, I just started the game and boy was the intro amazing or what? Loved the video tutorial part, it's extremely detailed and informative. The soundtrack is just EPIC. Got past the first level, now back to the game. :D
 
To those who have played the beta/preview code, how do you obtain those augmentation upgrades? The tutorial said you need to spend your XP for it, but somehow, that's not the case.
 
Is the game hard or i'm just not playing it properly 2 shots and I'm dead, this is even more stealthy than Splinter Cell Series.
 
I completed the first section of entering the warehouse without being detected and got the 'Ghost' achievement. But once in the warehouse, dodging the security cameras and hacking are proving to be a bit annoying for me. I took the 'Non-Lethal' option, when Sarif asked me to make a choice, at the start of the mission. BTW which part are you on? Stay in cover and let your health regenerate.
