Purist/Heartless/Hardcore questions

[Boob_Man]

These are obvious sorts of questions so I did search - couldn't find the answers.

1) For the purist/heartless do only the £cut-scene" type morality decisions contribute towards this or do things like the killing/saving of civilians count as well? Reason I'm asking is because I've just done a play-through picking only negative decisions and didn't get the heartless trophy at the end.

2) For Hardcore, can you just start a new game using chapter select, or do you have to start on a new save?

Thanks for any assistance.

Only the parts where you choose between pressing and count towards Purist/Heartless. I know this because my first playthru was positive only and I didn't save all the hostages. My 2nd playthru was negative only and I rescued all the hostages.

Remember at the end:

Shooting Jonas is Negative, killing partner is Positive

Also, for hardcore, every chapter has to be finished on Contractor difficulty, regardless of what order you play them in. So you can either start a new save (all kills and everything count together in each of the save slots) or play thru the chapters randomly. I can also back this up by saying my friend got Hardcore after finishing Chapter 4 because he screwed up the settings on his previous playthru.

Gaaarrrg! The reveal revealed the reason why I never got the trophy (I made an incorrect presumption on the final choice). Cheers mister DMiZ!
