System Shock: Difference between revisions

* [[The Federation]]: The UNN.

* [[Fetch Quest]]: In the sequel the first mission is to get to deck 4, but the elevator is not powered, so we need to get to Deck 1 first to reroute power from the engines, but the door to the maintenance shaft to deck 1 is locked and we need to find the guy who knows the code, but he is in the section that is locked off, so we need to find another guy with the keycard. Once on Deck 1, we need to fix the coolant tubes to get to the engine area, but the fluidics control is locked and we need to find the dame who knows the code, but to use the fluidics control we need to install the specific override on it, which is specified in the audio log that is located somewhere on this deck. Only then can you can go to the engines and reroute power to the elevator. Thankfully, it gets less complicated.

* [[Fighter, Mage, Thief]]: the sequel manages a sci-fi take on this, thanks to its [[RPG Elements]]. At the start of the game, you choose whether to join the Marines, Navy, or OSA (PSI-Corps), each of which then lets you pick three specific missions that determine skills and ability scores. While technically you can purchase ranks in anything no matter which career you chose to start with, the scarcity of cyber modules (used to purchase skill ranks & stat boosts) and the high price of buying into a "cross-class skill" (10 cyber modules for the first rank... and you ''cannot'' do anything relating to that skill without at least one rank) tends to make it easier to play to the strengths of a "class". The Marine (Fighter) gets stat boosts, weapon skills and maintenance, the Navy (Thief) gets technical skills and some minor stat boosts, and the OSA (Mage) gets psychic powers and a few skills.

* [[Final Boss Preview]]: The Many {{spoiler|or to be more specific, its brain, even though the Many are not the final boss.}}

* [[Firing One-Handed]]: The Melee weapons and the pistols. The Hybrids wield their weapons one-handed.

* [[Justified Tutorial]]: These act as the recruitment aids for the military and can be skipped.

* [[Kaizo Trap]]: Inverted. {{spoiler|In the original, when Shodan defeats you by completely filling your screen with herself, you still can steal the victory if you keep blindly attacking.}}

* [[Kill It with Ice]]: Cryokinesis.

* [[Killed Mid-Sentence]]: Malick. He was working on an audio-log before Bronson's men gunned him down. {{spoiler|Also Prefontaine.}}
