There's a turret underneath the wharf that you can hack. It won't attack the Big Daddy until you do. It doesn't last too long, but it's enough of a distraction that it should give you a head start on pounding the Big Daddy. The other alternative is to not fight the Big Daddy until later. It won't attack you unless you attack it or get too close to the Little Sister.

If there any lists up of where to get all of the 53 plasmids for the achievement? Other than going through all of the plasmids by cycling, is there a way to see what you have and what you need?

I also noticed that some of the plasmids get cheaper the deeper you get into the game.

I had that happen as well. Made me mad. I killed the Big Daddy and died at the same time. When I got back, the little sister was no where to be found. She was near him when I killed him and died.
I had to wait until I found another Big Daddy and he got a little sister out of hiding in the tube/vent thing.

I'm trying to judge how far in I am, how many areas are there? I just finished Fort Frolic last night and saved at the beginning of Hephestus.
Also glanced at Flay's diary list and it looks like I missed one of the big 5.
Oh well. I'll be going through on hard anyway.

It's my second playthrough, and of the purchasable plasmids I'd probably only use upgrades to Electro or Incinerate, or maybe Winter Blast and Target Dummy, and even then I could go without those.

Just finished the good ending last night. After having played both, even though I usually prefer dark endings, I feel the good ending left me more satisfied. I thought I was really thorough, but I still haven't collected all the blasted diaries. I guess I'll have to get them on hard mode now.

Wow, thanks. I didn't think I was halfway yet. This does seem short. Hard to tell how many hours I've played though. Just a random guess would be 8-10.
