    Vita Chamber Movement!

    Please, everyone who has played bioshock, please help by demanding an update that changes the vita chamber system.

    Just respawning with no penalty is stupid, its like inifinite lives, you can beat the game with just your wrench. Atleast on hard difficulty change the vita chamber rules... you could even GET RID OF THEM...


    Its the only complain anyone has with the game!!!

    I agree that the vita-chambers makes the game far to easy. With the plethora of vending machines and pick-ups in-game , the only thing they should be for is a "checkpoint" style system, rather than an "instant spawn" one. It was a novel idea with PREY but that game also suffered from the same "to easy" problem.
    We gamers are hardy folk, we enjoy and challenge, nay we demand a challenge. To many games now are dumbed down as it were and provide very little in the way of sport for our avid taste's.

    So what you're saying is...you don't want the game to automatically spawn you at a vita-chamber...you'd rather hit a button and do it yourself?

    I was thinking about it today and thought it ironic. The splicers respawn, and 2k have extended this ability to you!

    It's one thing to make the game challenging, it's another to make it frustrating.

    Perhaps an option to turn player spawning off is all it would take?

    Yes, make it optional. That way it caters to everyone's tastes. I try to play a game with as few loads as possible, so some times I get in to tough situations with very little in the way of anything useful. It makes it more challenging and I like a good challenge.

    At the present moment your a god unable to lose the game.. to my knowledge. Atleast in hard difficulty change the vita chamber system. Or the idea of making it a choice is also good... something 2k games...

    Maybe have an option to force the player to activate them like in SS2.

    You know, you don't have to use them. Just save and load like normal. Or can you not do that on the 360? I'm on PC.

    I've only used a vita chamber twice (when I died from experimenting and it didn't really matter).

    Generally when I die, I reload, cause it pisses me off that the Big Daddy / Splicer / whatever beat me, and I try a different tack.

    One of the early Big Daddies took me an eternity to kill, because I refused to respawn, and every time I reloaded I tried a different load out, purchased different upgrades (saved by a gatherer's garden). It took a while, but so much fun... it felt so good when the plan came together, and Rosie went down.

    Yea this is sorta an issue. The game is too fun to really complain about, but I would like to see a VERY hard mode where the Vita chambers cost money like 50 to revive in. This would make it more similiar to System Shock 2.
