BrokenEmpires Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Ok say I got all the diaries except the first 2 in Welcome to Rapture. If I start a new game and get the first 2 will I get the achievement? or will I have to get all of them again? Edit* I just realized I got 19 diaries in medical paviliion/welcome to rapture. Which means I got all 17 plus the first two. But STILL I would like for one of you to answer the question for other people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ingles Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I agree, awesome guide! And does anyone know if the achievement unlocks immediately after you finish collecting them all or if you must finish/beat the game before it unlocks the achievement for you. Thanks.

Mainewha Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Asfar as I know it will unlock as soon as you have retrieved the last diary.(that's how it happened for me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ingles Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Asfar as I know it will unlock as soon as you have retrieved the last diary.(that's how it happened for me) You were right, it does unlock just as soon as you grab the last journal. I wanted to make sure because the journal entitled "First Encounter" (I think) didn't show up like the rest had when I'd press start and go view the diaries. It put it in with another levels diaries, which after reading and reading around the forums... I finally discovered. But still... thanks. I got the achievement.

Shadowscale Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Nice job with the guide man was looking for something just like this im working on the brass balls one atm and its freaking hard if you play like you usually do i had to change up my game play style to gun em to hope you get lucky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingles Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Nice job with the guide man was looking for something just like this im working on the brass balls one atm and its freaking hard if you play like you usually do i had to change up my game play style to gun em to hope you get lucky It's not that the game was hard, it's just that the Big Daddy's are difficult to kill on this difficulty setting. One method that I developed for killing the Big Daddy's was to shoot a couple of proximity mines around the big daddy, then hit them directly with a regular mine or heat-seeking mine. It takes away about half of their health or more depending on how close you get the mines and also how many you laid out. Also, sometimes I'd create a path of proximity mines that they'll run into whenever they try to slide/rush up to hit you. Explosive shotgun rounds are also very affective on the hard difficulty setting. Those are some things that I did to help me make it through the game and get the Brass Balls achievement, so if you're feeling stuck or having difficulty beating the Big Daddy's for that achievement, you may want to try that method and see how it works out for you.

Andrew x360a Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 I'm actually having trouble finding one of the weapon upgrade stations. Its the one labeled "5" in Fort Frolic, right by Sinclair Spirits. I've stood in the exact spot indicated on the map and there's nothing there. Does anyone have any idea if there's an error or an alternate position for it? Thanks so much for the help! EDIT: Nevermind. I went back to the forum and saw the other upgrade location thread, so I'll use what's there and see if I can find the station. Sorry to bother people - I totally forgot that there were two threads for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeyondTheGraves Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Hey there. You made a really nice guide, but i have problems in the neptunes bounty. It means there are total 23 but i've just got 22. There also is one diary which isn't really there? (21) I'm not sure now if i've got all or not.

Andrew x360a Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 I finally finished this game up. Thanks so much for this guide. It would've taken so much longer to get the Historian achievement without it. Very well done. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAizenI Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 18.The Vita Chamber (Suchong) - Control Room, on the desk to the left of the entrance. I can't back back in there, but it isn't marked by an asterik so, just wondering if anybody can help me out. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold Rival Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 I beleive that's one of the ones that you must pick up as you enter the room, because you can't go back. (I've not played thie for ages, so I can't be 100% sure.) However, if I'm right, then the only way you can get it is by replaying... Sorry dude.

Search with telekinesis everywhere near... It wont dissappear cause i remember i missed 1 in Herphasteus that was in a corpse as well and after searching for a while, i found it, so maybe go to the next area (Neptunes Bount) and return, and see if it "repawns".
