How you use the environment.

Lets your walking through a mall in Rapture and your suddenly attacked by a group of aggressors.Can you use Incenerate to set off the sprinkler system then use Electrobolt to set zap them in the puddles?:confused:

[Nias Wolf]

I think if you light a teddy bear on fire, and use telekenisis to put it right up against the sprinkler system... Or maybe shoot the sprinkler heads... I don't know.

doesn't mean there are sprinkelers everywhere
the only place I know they excist is in the 'outdoor' area with the hyrdoponics

[koolgecko91]

Whats a Hydorponic???

[Nias Wolf]

A way to grow plants. You grow them in a mineral solution instead of soil.

[koolgecko91]

Ohh cool never heard of that before.

But...putting only a few sprinklers in only a few places...in essentially a big trap is dumb...? no?

I think this is a perfect example of how dynamic the gameplay in Bioshock should be. The only barrier to executing such a string of events would be the lack of programmed functionality, or even presence, of a sprinkler system.

For one, the 50's were less safety conscience than we were. For two, the rate of return from gamers realizing they could do this would probably not outweigh the difficulty of programming it.

[Whats the matter, Frank?]

I think there were sprinklers shown in the Arcadia video walkthrough, actually.

Are they functional though? Did they react to environmental variables like fire?

[Whats the matter, Frank?]

Dunno, they were barely shown.

[Goddy Of War]

I don't know the answer to this question, but if they did have something like that in the game, it wold be the apithany of awesome

[PsychotropicPineapples]

It would be pretty cool but... that means an entire room which would kill every splicer inside it. That's just too easy. Especially if it's a whole mall.
