Hacking - The Nuke Program

[Capt Cliff]

The Nuke Program is suppose capture a node undetected, right? Well evrytime I use a nuke I am detected .... Why have the nuke program if you are autodetected each time!!??

[Luxia]

It's stated that they WILL detect you if you use it. It's literally stated in a tip.

[thehemmo]

it tells u if u nuke it will detect it 100%.

Nuke is supposed to nuke.
Use it on nodes after you were already detected for instant capture

[asd]

Nuke didn't get you detected in Human Revolution... now it does

[BGK]

Nukes rarely go unnoticed.

There's whole new mechanics on this game's hacking. You can't expect everything to work as it used.

So ... for it to work per Human Revolution you have to use a detect program to display the nodes then a nuke, yes?

Not sure what you mean.

In HR nuke was instant capture with no detection.
In MD it is instant capture with guaranteed detection.

It's use to not used!! You might have to to a detect before you use the nuke! Gonna try it.

Oh I'm sorry Adolf, I thought this was a thread to discuss game mechanics, not grammar.

Nuke is instant capture with detection, which can be useful for, say, level 4-5 protected nodes that would take a long time to capture. I prefer using a Stealth item for high lv. nodes though.

If that is true the the nuke is useless ... unless it's 100% detect on a undetected node ...

No, it is not useless.
It is meant to instant capture nodes that would otherwise take a long time to load.
After the subroutine has detected you, you have few seconds to finish the hacking before you're locked out.
The ability to instant capture nodes then is very valuable.

Need to use "Any Mod, Any Weapon" and then slap a suppressor on your Fat Man.

I tried a reveal program, that shows all the node and the nuke program still is detected. Bleh completely different from HR!! So it IS useless except for capture of the final node or if you are already detected. Dumb to change it.
