Entries about the equipment upgrades

Added DiffLines:

* The ballroom at the Sedgewick is stated to be reserved for a bar mitzvah, but you can find a huge ham hock on the buffet table. In the remaster, you can disintegrate this ham to get an achievement, "Kosher!" with the description: "Remedy a dubious food choice to make the bar mitzvah as orthodox as it can be."
* Speaking of achievements, you can get the "Total Protonic Reversal" achievement for [[AchievementMockery blowing yourself up]] with a Boson Dart.
* The various upgrade descriptions are hilarious, full of FalseReassurance and notes about the extremely dangerous nature of the Ghostbuster's equipment.
** Egon offhandedly mentions during the tutorial that the automatic overheat reset prevents the pack from exploding with "the force of several atomic bombs".
** The Boson Dart will vaporize a 3 mile radius if the emitter wand is blocked when firing, while the upgraded variant reduces this to a [[FalseReassurance mere 1 mile]].
** The upgraded Shock Blast can sometimes emit particles that effect the user's mental state, resulting in "an elevated intemperance and an increase in general wantonness"[[note]] Perhaps a nod to how fun it is to [[DieChairDie blast objects]] with this weapon in particular[[/note]], and light from the heat dispersal upgrade's vents can cause temporary blindness, the listed solution to which is not looking at it.
** The order-reversing particles used by the upgraded Stasis Stream can cause numbness in the fingers and hands and also "fleeting feelings of ennui, angst and boredom-laced paranoia". A disclaimer is also given that they "affect the user's gender in no discernible way".
** One of the Slime Blower's upgrades was derived from something in Egon's fungus and mold collection. It also causes the slime to sporadically regain the "emotive properties" of the pink slime from the second film, causing the upgrade screen to advise you to disable the system in the presence of loud music (thankfully, none is encountered in-game).
** The other slime blower upgrade blasts the slime with a low-level proton stream. The resulting increase in operating pressure [[FalseReassurance "will most likely not result in a Plasm Tank rupture"]].
** Upgraded slime tethers have been known to malfunction and tie the user's legs together. The flash-heating applied to upgraded tethers also apparently improves their taste, though it also discourages you investigating this yourself.
** Exposure to an upgraded Meson Collider causes sterility in lab mice, but "its impact on humans remains debatable".
** An upgraded Overload Pulse is apparently strong enough to rip small holes in the barrier between this world and the next. The upgrade page entirely brushes past the consequences of this, and instead tells you not store things or dispose of trash in them.
** Both of the upgrades for the Ghost Trap involve dismantling parts of its safety features in the name of faster trapping. The end result is an entirely unshielded trap that also periodically vents plasma from the air intakes when in use, though apparently the only negative effect of this is singed carpet.

* At one point while trekking through one of the buildings, the crew comes across another innocent bystander who gets caught in the crossfire and flees in terror, not unlike the poor maid they nearly incinerated from the first film.

-->'''Answering Machine''': Dr. Spengler, this is James from We Ship It. Listen, you gotta come down and pick up this package of Carpathian Dunnbach[?] mold we've been holding for you. It's started to spread, it's taken over half the loading docks, and I (pause) I think it's ''singing''?!
