Title: The Tyson Challenge
Post by: Slaughter on June 06, 2020, 03:11:39 am

So... Is it possible? Anyone try this? Beating the cults, monsters and aliens by just... Beating them with your fists? No rifles no pistols, not even bows and sticks... Just bare fists.

(Is ear biting allowed?)

I just know someone is going to be insane enough to try.

Filing that one away for later, right after my Pepper Spray / Boombox only run.

Possibly doable, but probably not worth it.

Assuming we don't count outright cheating through debug/value editors etc, it still would require probably a lot of save-scumming and quite some knowledge with will to exploit every opportunity and mechanics of the game available. And time, a lot of time. Some missions are tiresome and long with proper guns and whatnot - using just fists with no other items in any way at any point would make it a masochistic nightmare, and that assuming you have aforementioned decent power suits that would let you punch later enemies and deal any damage at all which you may be unable to get to with punching alone.
