Line 57:
** Midway through the game, once you've started encountering and pissing off MJ12, their soldiers will start coming out nowhere to attack you, constantly, with no warning beyond, at best, a quick call from Jock that they've found you. Especially notable in Hell's Kitchen.
* [[Porting Disaster]]: The game is famous for it's massive, complex stages. However, the PS2 port segmented each stage.
* [[Scrappy Mechanic]]: Aiming in general; to even consider hitting someone at range with any weapon, you have to stand still and keep your crosshair focused on them as the reticle narrows in. Firing before you're fully honed in will likely make you miss horribly or simply skim your target. Even having that weapon type's skill mastered still has a slight randomized spread every shot which probably ''will'' make you load that quicksave repeatedly until you finally get that headshot with a tranquilizer dart on a non-lethal run. Naturally, melee weapons don't suffer this, but then getting close to an alert enemy can get you killed real quick anyway.
 
** The melee mechanics can be off too. Sometimes, what appears to be a successful strike to an enemy's back, that should be an instant KO or kill, depending on the type of the weapon, will only succeed in pissing them off, and having them quickly turn around and send a round into your face. Using the melee augs, and/or increasing melee skill can help avoid this though.
