So I finally got around to playing this game - really late, I know I know!

My question is this - when you go to Noveria and go up to the office to retrieve the key card for the manager is it possible to actually do it and not kill anyone? I was able to talk to the first guard and talk her and her friend into leaving, but there was 10 or so other guards up there that obviously didn't get the memo. =/

I was hoping to get through the whole thing without killing anyone, but they fired on me first.

So is it even possible?

Are you talking about the guards in the office you go to do a favour for someone? In that case, then no I don't think the rest of the guards are that smart. I think the ones you can convince to leave are the smart ones in charge, the rest are just thugs. Snuff them out without mercy.

Yeah, you go to the office to get info about the administrator being corrupt and in exchange the manager will give you a key card to the garage so you can get to Peak 15.

That is kind of a bummer, I was hoping to avoid killing anyone there and then of course what happens after you retrieve the data.... I would have liked to have avoided that too. Ah well.

The woman you have to take care of afterwards was so arrogant it was a pleasure to kill her, hehe.
And I at least tried to talk them out of it, so I could go about my butchery...*ahem* lethal self defense with a happy heart.

Honestly, I disliked her right away too when I met her on the docks, I just got annoyed that she was calling me a cop killer and all. Annoying.

Yeah, I was a little disappointed. I mean he says he is going to try to get through without hurting anyone (at least in the way I ran the convo) and he was able to persuade the first guard and her buddy to split, so it just seemed lame that the others still attack you.

Like you said, it would have been cool if each grouping came up to you and either you convince them to scram or you have to fight. I still didn't mind killing Blondie after getting the info - she was a obnoxious bitch, but the rest of them didn't need to go.

Ahh, good memories of melting blondie into a pile of green goo...
