This was AMAZING, the first encounter had my heard leave my body. This was the first SOMA mod I have played and I am glad I found the best contender for that that I could. Nice storytelling too, props to all the devs! :munshi_happy:

This was fun! I really enjoyed the creepy ambiance you guys made with the sounds and music. The story was simple but effective!

Excellent work mate.I really like the feeling of a global terrifying event and hopelesness like this one and When Day Breaks.I hope you make more of them when you have the time and the inspiration.

Kinda guessed the story midway through or something but I liked it

@LosttyFrostty Thank you for your kind words. I definitely learned how to design better puzzles from making this mod, so you can expect better puzzles in my next mods :)

9/10. only got stuck in one section, with the bridge, i kept trying to jump it and didn't know you had to knock it down with rocks. as you lost health, you can't sprint as fast, so i figured i needed to be at full health for that part. aside from that small issue, the outside zones were stunning, and overall, the story left me jaw dropped. i totally expected to play through the entire thing without the keycards again a few more times for all the people trapped down there, but the credits rolled.. seriously. you could expand upon this! i love it.

I have tried them all, lv6 and 5. Neither worked, it said the same error as with any other. Invalid credentials. I gave up after a while. Still, thanks.
TiMan  [author] 1 Jul, 2020 @ 9:59am 
@Ye Olde FoxeH Last time I checked, any level 6 and 5 work. Perhaps you mistyped it or did something in the wrong order.
GniQQ 1 Jul, 2020 @ 5:32am 
A level 6 access should have access to leve 5 areas. Also neither level 5 credential worked for the Level 5 door, nor either level 6. Deleted.

WELL THEN...i broke the mod, was crouching in the second airlock you run into at the beginning of the mod map, and i ended up glitching through the floor....

Great mod! Perfect bleak story fitting in with the mood of Frictional Games overall. I have one thing to say about the story; if they keep people on ice like that, treating humans as spare parts, maybe it's better the way it all turned out...

The only weak part is the bridge puzzle, that felt a bit arbitrary and gamey to me.

Thank you.

Great mod TiMan. I really liked the attention to the ending.

You know, probably a monster you can 't handle and you have to go into a room where you don 't know what you need to take and behind your back are already waiting and not where to go. Gameplay is not particularly mnetetic. But this bully didn 't even look at me. He was just rubbing the area around the table and trying to think that I 'd give up on it.

AAAA OMG button BACK here.This button is not so logical in the energy control center.
TiMan  [author] 7 Apr, 2020 @ 5:46am 
@from vig_love You can press on Back, it's at the bottom of the terminal screen
Mister Twister 7 Apr, 2020 @ 5:33am 
My second terminal at the administrator shows ONLY the functions of interaction with the station.
TiMan  [author] 7 Apr, 2020 @ 3:22am 
@from vig_love In the administrator room, there are 2 terminals. One terminal in which you insert your security card and another terminal to the left. In one of the menu options there is a page that describes the crew members and their ID.
Mister Twister 7 Apr, 2020 @ 2:38am 
I searched everything and went around. My question. WHERE IS THE CODE FOR THE TERMINAL?

The Discord invitation link validity has expired.

BTW, just downloaded your mod. I'll try it ASAP.
Kevin Loondren 28 Jan, 2020 @ 11:20am 
I'll be looking forward for your next mods,
And for the HPL3 we still have Penumbra Prisoner of Fate coming up hopefully soon.
TiMan  [author] 28 Jan, 2020 @ 11:13am 
Thanks!

This is my last SOMA mod. I am looking forward to mod Frictional's next game, though!
Kevin Loondren 28 Jan, 2020 @ 11:12am 
Hey, Thanks for the fast reply.
I hope you'll be able to fix this issues before the deadline, You and your team did an amazing job, Especially with changing the attacking style. Who knows, Maybe one day you guys will make Amnesia monsters in SOMA.
TiMan  [author] 28 Jan, 2020 @ 9:33am 
@.ו\[ Kevin ~ Loondren ]/ו. I thought I fixed this issue! Good thing you noticed it. Me and my team decided we will use the construct music because we thought it fitted the character the most, considering it's a droid. We wanted to make custom music for it but we didn't have the time because of the deadline of the mod.

I agree the chairs and the area with the sofa aren't really fitting - but again it was made for a modding jam in just about a month, and I think it does the job well enough.

I'm happy to hear you didn't find the puzzles too difficult, as some people had an issue with the catwalk puzzle in the second map.
Kevin Loondren 28 Jan, 2020 @ 9:16am 
Also about the Broadcaster, After he attacks, If you managed to get out of his sight quickly he'll change from Hunt State to Search State, I don't know if it supposed to be like that if it is then nevermind I guess
Kevin Loondren 28 Jan, 2020 @ 9:00am 
Nice!
I was amazed when I encountered the Broadcaster, but there are some problems you might wanna look into:

1) Broadcaster is walking while choking the player,
You might wanna stop his pathfinder when playing the "death_choke animation" because while doing that he goes to Patrol State which is a problem because he's moving while playing the animation which looks weird because his legs does not walk in the animation.

2) The Broadcaster got some weird squares near his "flare" light effect...

3) The Broadcaster gets stuck a lot in his encountering area:
got to say he doesn't fit very well with the area, sometimes he'll get stuck between chairs and stuff and it ruined a bit...

4) It kind of sad that the Broadcaster uses the same music that the Construct uses, I mean SOMA got tons of unused hunt, stalk and ambient music, I'm sure you guys can make a nice mix of these.

Other than that everything is fine with him I think

About the gameplay itself:

The gameplay, The map design and the scripting were absolutely amazing! the only problem was that the puzzles where too easy to understand but who cares XD
