Deus Ex: Human Revolution Directors Cut Specific Features/Changes/Enhancements:
Ø Total Game
Immersion
· You ARE Adam Jensen. The GamePad is Jensen's Neural
Hub, one of his implanted augmentations and possibly his most
powerful tool.
· The "in-game" menus are now toolkits;
they feel like part of the game flow and one of Adam Jensen’s
augmentations.
· Tongs’s Rescue mission and the entire Missing
Link chapter have been integrated seamlessly into the narrative flow
of the Director’s Cut.
· Original pre-order and other bonus
weapons are now at Jensen’s disposal.
Ø Original
Game Mechanics utilizing the GamePad
· Hacking is now at his
best on the GamePad. Use the speed and precision of your fingers to
hack on the GamePad while the world remains visible on your primary
screen.
· The "sniper scope" feature allows any weapon
with a scope to use both the GamePad and primary screen for a
two-step, precision sniping.
· The Toolkits (previously
in-game menus) are now all easily displayed and accessible on the
GamePad.
· The Radar is now featured on the touch
screen and is a hybrid of the original radar and the 2D Map. Opening
the 2D Map Toolkit allows players to draw hints, paths and notes that
will remain on the radar.
· The Quick Inventory is
now displayed on the GamePad touch screen, leaving the primary screen
clear.
· Looting shows detailed descriptions about the items
and doesn't require players to access extra menus to see the
content.
Ø New Features;
·
Grenade Throw-Back: Grenades near Jensen appear on the GamePad, the
player can then swipe the grenade icon to throw the grenade back.
·
New Augmentation "Tactical Pattern-Recognition System":
Display Jensen's view through the GamePad touch screen. Moving the
GamePad around will move Jensen's view (the camera) in the same way,
using the gyroscope. The NPC closest to Jensen's center point of view
(reticle) will have an extra information panel appearing over his
head, giving precious information like the items carried, total
health, armor type and state (unconscious, dead, normal). Jensen can
still move and shoot while the T.P-R.S is active.
· Infologs:
Information packages that can contain detailed screenshots, voice
recordings, drawing and typed notes all together. Infologs can be
toggled as a physical beacon in-game to be played automatically when
standing on it. Infologs can be shared through the Miiverse to your
friends, which let them view your content in-game, without breaking
the immersion.
· New Game +: Lengthen the game with the New Game
Plus; keeping Jensen's augmentations on replay.
· GamePad
Mode: Ability to play on the GamePad (No TV needed).
