well, i've already played-through the entire game, and was able to upgrade the suit with some mods - but of course, you cant get all the mods..so on this play-through, for some reason when i collect nano-catalyst it isnt showing up in the suit mod menu for me to spend. just got through that small area after you collect the alien sample where you fight 3 or 4 them that are attacking cell soldiers..i was able to collect the nano-catalyst, but like i said, its just showing up as "0"..

in the "new game plus"(?) - shouldnt i still be collecting nano-catalyst?..

anyone willing to talk, im willing to listen..

I've been having the same problem, And IIRC so are a fair few other people. Hopefully we shall see a bug fix patch soon. But I wouldn't hold my breath.

Kinda wondered about that myself. I had 2120 nano-catalysts when I went back to fight a new level and as soon as I went to grab 100 more my setting was back to 0 and stayed that way no matter how much more I managed to get.

Its because whatever nano catalysts you had before you last quit, you're now in the hole that much. So if you had 500 points before you quit, you're game bugged out forever, adn now you'll have to collect 500 points before you'll see your points going above 0. If you we're trying to save points but not spending 5 hours in the game, you'll be closer to 10,000 or 15,000 in the hole.

Nice bug right?

The only workaround is to either download and use a cheat trainer that will give you essentially infinite points, or download this thing called Cheat Engine, and figure out what memory block your points are in, and then change that value to whatever you want.

I saw this problem come up in the forums a lot. Just add it to the list, crytek will admit to the bug and issue another fake patch. They will then tell you it didn't patch right and to uninstall and redownload the 6.7 gig image.

damn, thats nuts..i dont know exactly what i had at the end of my other play-through - all i know is that i went into that last battle with some already, and then ended up collecting 2 or 3 from those cloaked cephs, and they're worth 5k..im guessing im around 12k in the hole then..that friggin' svcks..i read that someone went back to the level "a walk in the park" killed the cloaked cephs and got the suit upgrades before the game ended, since of course there is no reason to save them at this point..im gunna try that..
