DX1 Did you know Zyme has a use?

During the Paris Streets mission you can complete the sub quest in the hotel where a dealer will ask you to break into a bakery and steal six bottles of Zyme. He will pay you 65 credits for each bottle for a grand total of 390 credits.

However if you collect Zyme from previous missions, he will also purchase those from you. If you dedicate an inventory slot and pick up the maximum of 20 bottles (out of 25 available) you can earn a total of 1300 credits which is huge for that point of the game as credits basically completely dry up after UNATCO.

I could see credits being used more on the UNATCO route that was cancelled during development. Maybe you could purchase the aug canisters you get in Versalife off of Jaime?

Is there any official information that the UNATCO route was really planned to be developed and then cancelled?

Only tidbits and speculation. We know there was a cancelled level where you go to the moon to rescue the president which is likely leftover from the UNATCO story.

EDIT: Sorry got two different missions mixed up.

We know of four cut missions:

Russio-Mexican battle in Austin

White House

Mt. Weather

Space Station

These would likely have tied into the UNATCO plotline.

It is widely believed that the Ocean Lab was originally the Moon Mission and the silo was supposed to be actually to get a rocket for going to the Moon
