I'm so glad they got rid of the pdf guides. The format was always so disappointing, and somehow the guides were less helpful that their html counterparts.
Deus Ex Human Revolution Walkthrough

Take the helm as Adam Jensen and uncover the conspiracy. Our Deus Ex Human Revolution Walkthrough provides a full walkthrough, sidequests, and info on augmentations.
Omega Ranch
You'll arrive in the ranch without a proper functioning signals. The place is being jammed and you will have no waypoints until the device is turned off. Because of this, you might find yourself wondering around the facility.
The place is heavily guarded, but most of these patrols are standing or moving close to each other. If you haven't already, upgrade your back to perform two takedowns at once. As always silent takedowns are preferred. The first two soldiers you'll meet outside are not near anyone else, so they can be slaughtered if you feel like the messy approach.
Once these enemies are dealt with, move towards the left and across a wooden deck to find two more guards. Once again a dual takedown is ideal to keep things silent. Straight ahead will be three more enemies: two heavies and a stealth trooper; there is also a turret far down this hall as well. As before you can choose to use takedowns. However, a much more effective method is to sneak behind the railing on the right and hack the terminal on the far end. This will give you control of the turret and turn the Tyrant's machine against them.
On the right side of this courtyard is a building containing two more guards and many lockers. Deal with these Tyrants and enter the room at the end of the hall. Inside this room are the controls to deactivate the jammer. You'll now have waypoints leading to each of the missing scientists. The building in the north east houses Colvin and Koss while Faherity is down in the underground labs.
Start by entering the northern building and through the decontamination station. On the bottom floor are two guards patrolling along with a turret in the far left corner; on the above floor another three soldiers are keeping watch. The safest bet is to sneak through the vents on the right and use them to circle around the room. The exit of the vents will place you near the turret's controls and is a good spot to stun or kill the guards. You can also crawl up the stairs to reach the second and third floors. One of the stealth troops on the second floor has the code to Colvin's office: 1504. If you want to obtain it yourself, takedown this runt and loot his goods. Head into the room on the far north east to save Colvin.
Koss is on the third floor in the north west. There are two quick ways to get to him. The first is to exit Colvin's room, head west and into the shutdown lab. With the heavy lifting augmentation you can move over a pile of containers and access an elevator to the third floor lab. Alternately, you can take the southern stairs and circle counter clockwise. This will lead you to two sets of laser beams and a panel that can be hacked. If the guards are dead or knocked out, hacking this terminal will be easy; otherwise you'll be more preoccupied with possibly getting caught or having a fight as you hack. Either way, once inside Koss' lab chat with the doctor to hear his info.
Faherity is inside the center building. You can either enter from the ground lobby or take the skyway bridge from the second floor. If you enter through the lobby, a stealth solder and a heavy will be guarding; take them out and make your way to the upper level. Here will be two more basic troops; take them down and loot them for terminal password: Keppler. Head into the room on the far right and use this passcode on the right side terminal to gain the code 5377. Additionally on top of the table is a pocket security with the code 2535. With these codes return to the first level and to the west to come to a laser grid. Enter 2535 to stop the lasers and enter the elevator on the right. You'll arrive on in the basement. Circle around to the center room to find Faherity.
With all three scientists saved, return to the court yard and travel further west. You'll come across two robots that can be destroyed with EMPs. Search the lockers around the area to stock up ammo and gear. At the far end of the hall is a terminal where you can plant Vasili's virus. Doing so will alarm several soldiers. However, if you stay hidden the group of them will run passed your location. Enter the elevator the guards arrived in to fight the third boss. If you stopped to have your augmentations recalled in China you'll have several handicaps during the battle. However, if you ignored the previous warning you'll actually be at normal power for this brawl.
Namir is fast strong, fast and uses cloaking. The fast firing assault rifle is among the best weapons for the fight, though the machine pistol and heavy rifle can also serve for this encounter. If you haven't already upgrade your defenses to withstand gas and EMPS. Namir loves to throw grenades, but with immunities they won't be a problem.
The Tyrant leader will often climb over the walls in an attempt to surprise you. However, you can also use this time to get in a few free shots. The easiest way to take him down is to keep circling around the walls and shoot him as he comes to you; don't bother actively trying to locate him. You'll have so many augments at this point that this boss fight won't be much trouble. After the fight restock your ammo and head down the path forward.

"... have just searched Radford's locker after taking the Suits out with my silenced pistol. I have grabbed the pictures from the safe and interogated the computer there, as well as read the Ebook.
When I go to leave the lockup the game is telling me there's more photos to find in the lockup. I can't find anything else. Is this a glitch, or do I have to come back later or something?"
Never mind. I have solved it. There were five emails on the computer in the lockup. I had missed the last one that was off the bottom of the screen. Once I had read this the game updated and I'm now on my way again.
My thanks to Maf17. Using the Typhoon (plus the EMP protection upgrade) did the trick for me too. I think the EMP protection was the thing that did it for me though. She seemed impotent against this and I may well have been able to take my time and tickle her to death if I wanted to.
Anyway, now have just searched Radford's locker after taking the Suits out with my silenced pistol. I have grabbed the pictures from the safe and interogated the computer there, as well as read the Ebook.

I thought there was an Achievement where you let Doctor Isaias Sandoval commit suicide? I'm not sure if it was on the Xbox or PC version.
There was one other Question I have, as in the Banner Above where it says walk through, it shows Jensen wearing a helmet of sort, I think I saw in a preview trailer as well. Yet in game that is never an option, unless it was dropped from the game during development? Or could that be a hint for the next Deus Ex?

@Dremun If you have completed all the sidequests ie: Lesser Evils, Motherly Ties and Cloak and Daggers then just ignore the warning and board the helo/VTOL. If you have started these sidequests but have not finished, then they will be cancelled like it said when you continue to Hengsha. If you haven't started any of the sidequests, you can choose to stay in Detroit and complete them first before moving on to Hengsha, or you can just move onto Hengsha. The warning message will always appear before you move onto Hengsha no matter what.
Thank you for that Info, it is much appreciated, I hit delete on my post in error, and I just got on to the helo/Vtol and got no warning messages and the side quests that I had were showing up as completed when I looked at my quest logs. And I started my second play through on the hardest setting, it kinda seems like it's easier, but i will find out when I crash land in China on the second trip there :)
There's one more sidequest in Hengsha Part 2. To activate it you must talk to a doctor when you go to the LIMB clinic to change your chip.
Man, I don't now if its because i'm only look at the still photos here or something, but to me, the ps3 version of this game looks better then the 360 version iv been playing.
None of the bosses are hard if you choose weapons for tactics not for style. Also remember A.I is always stupid so they fall for anything and never learn. I chose to stock up on prox mines to begin with because I foresaw their potential. All you have to do is hug a wall and keep tossing the mines around the corners. First tactic I tried and since it worked so well I never attempted anything else. Flashbang to stun, gas to stun and damage and Explosive to damage. EMP are a waste on Bosses, but great for bots. I knocked out only few characters and only killed the bosses. It was so much easier just slip by everyone. I suppose you could go homocidal for fun but it doesn't seem necessary. Doing so just removes the ambieance and takes more time and inventory space for weapons. Played the game several times and haven't used most of the weapons beyond test firing, so I don't bother carrying anything other than the Tranq rifle, Tazer, revolver & shotgun.
1 Like Yelena is easy. Typhoon her at close range when she uncloaks in front of you, that damages her a lot, then she goes down with one blast of heavy rifle.
1 Like will somebody please tell me why this game DOESN'T HAVE NEW GAME PLUS!!??? damnit, i miss codebreaker and gameshark! :(
1 Like It`s a Bummer that the guides are NOT PDF files anymore. Gamepressure.com has free PDF guides for download that are very Beautiful as well.I like PDF files because they work GREAT with a Kindle device.A nice hand-held Guide device for your Lap.
1 Like I concur with other users. Why have the PDF guide stopped? It's nice to have the PDF guide itself. It's easier to find the info I need via a search, etc. Please bring them back.
1 Like I have been a Total Access subscriber for 9 years and 5 months...and I agree completely with ngadd the previous poster!!! One of the major reasons I joined was to get the .pdf files of your walkthroughs. How about continuing that policy or at least give us a good explination as to why it has been ended. That way I can come to a reasoned decision when renewall time comes around again.
1 Like Why isn't this guide (nor any other recent guide) downloadable any more ? Not even for longstanging Gamespot subscribers such as myself ? I've used loads of them over the years, and it's nice to have a printed copy to hand without having to go online all the time....
to become invisible, you need to invest in the cloak augmentation, then the d-pad button is in the upper right .i believe it is the down button.this is all for ps3. Also Yalena was cake walk. just run around the room and use the heavy rifle to shoot the computers to shock her then burn her down. No fuss, no muss.
The Yelena fight was pretty easy, toss a frag mine right in front of you as soon as the fight starts and move quickly to the left or right. The frag mine will stun her and then shoot away with a long range weapon and toss a couple more frag mines at her location. Takes about 10-20 seconds to kill her this way after stunning her with the first frag mine.
I got lucky with Yelena. Ended up finding a glitch. First I hit her with the stun gun then ran up to her and did the 'kill' takedown. She of course counters this bringing you close to death but because she is supposed to be stunned the game got confused and stuck her in place. I had a lot of fun shooting her in the head with my 10mm pistol knowing she couldn't do anything about it. About 10 shots later she died and I was on my way :P
Need extra cash? Put a police officer to sleep through takedowns or tranquilizer rifle, then pick up the weapon, go to the weapon store and sell it, repeat process...
Yelena was extremely easy. Just let her charge , then hit her with the stun gun and took out my handy dandy shot gun and let her have it. Did that 3 or 4 times and that was a wrap.
This is a pretty decent guide, however I think the jump ability is useless if you have heavy lifting as you can usually stack items to get to higher areas.
Hengsha 2 has at least 1 more sidequest, - Talion A.D. Given to you by a Dr. at the Limb Clinic, and consisting in finding the whereabouts of a former patient from the military that has gone awire, called Zelazny.
In case anyone wants an extra praxis, you can kill the barman downstairs in the hive and you'll find one on him when you search. I went on a mad killing spree and murdered everyone in the hive, went out the front door and the bouncer still wanted to charge me to get back in :-(
@rabksaj I didn't think I would like purely stealth based games so avoided Splinter Cell. But after playing as a stealth character on my second playthrough of DE:HR I thought I'd give the first SC a go and I liked it so much I've just bought the rest.
I don't understand people complains about the fact that if you play "stealth" it is hard to kill bosses. Not really. If you play "stealth"... well continue doing it during the boss fight da... That is how I took out Barret: After cutscene throw flash grenade. It will give you time to get to the stash with shotgun and EMP grenade. After flash effect passes he doesn't know where you are and most likely will move to the corner where you stand in the beginning. After that I waited until he turned facing wall, through EMP granade and the red barrel which is in the centre of the room. Then he dropped 3 grandees under his own feet. Another? EMP + 1-2 shotgun head shots and that was it. PS He never made a shot to my side...
Nothing beats the good old stealth games of splinter cell. you have real cool gadgets such as noise distracter. sticky diversion camera.etc etc.
"Version 1.2 has arrived. The Walkthrough is complete." No it isn't, even weeks after the game was released.
that boss strat for yelena is quite possibly the dumbest design I have seen in a game in years. Even with augs. So stupid. Not very clever at all.
The game guide is also missing one little side quest called Talion A.D. which you can get from a doctor by visiting the limb clinic in hengsha the second time.
@godiskingofall, Well I can't speak for later bosses yet, but you're right about how the first 2 pretty much went. I'm actually quite surprised how fast I took out that chick Yelena. She tagged me good the first couple of tries, but then I actually used the most ingenious weapon of all....I opened up a few cans of Typhoon whoop-ass on her w/ about dozen rounds or so off my Machine pistol (modded, of course) & that was a wrap. I actually just let her take herself out of hiding a then once she came running' up on me like a damn fool, I let have it, lol. Quick Tip: if you can go ahead and max out Typhoon before the fight do it--the more power the Typhoon blast the quicker you'll take her out. Damn people wasn't lying when they said her fight was actually breeze. I caught waaay more headbanging hell w/ Barrett....
GOTY. No doubt. Damn it, in that room when the hostages have been held, I just sneaked pass it since I had no more tranquilizer rounds, which I wasted on patrols in the facility entrance since I though they could actually move to other areas and complicate my objective further, but no, they were. Well. Patrolling THAT area, which I easily passed trough that ventilation duct. I could use some takedowns, yeah, but I would be easily spotted and I was trying to finalize the game withouth being spotted, alarming systems, or killing anyone a single time. Lots of achievments, huh? Yeah. I'm already in China and so far my tasks are going well. But now that I've seen that I could have saved the hostages and I wouldn't see the final hostage, which I save suceesfly, crying.
"The Seaport is the point of no return. Not only are you about to say bye to China, this is one of the last chances to purchase items, weapons, and praxis." This is not true - there is a Limb-clinic in Panchea...for us Praxis addicts :)
If you have the Grenade Launcher, all boss fights become easy. And save up for electrical resistance for the final boss fight!
lol i find deus ex boss fights ridiculously easy except for the first one. what i did for Yelena was dodge as much of her first attack as possible. after her first attack she cloaked to go charge. all i did was turn on smart vision , find her shoot her twice with my revolver (with explosive round add on) when she had her back to me then just when she's about to charge at me , shoot the power source thing ( i have max dermal armour ) causing her to freeze , then shoot her 2 or 3 times in the head done.
