Dead Space Begginer

I just rented the game and I'm on the second level on easy right now and I was wondering if there was anything I needed to know about the game and if you guys had any tips on how to play it the best way.

Shoot off legs first... If they are charging... just aim down and blow their legs off... then killing them is gravy...

Your gamertag says your a Pro and yet your playing Dead Space on Easy. Does not compute!

My advice is:

1. Turn the difficulty on hard. There is no thrill akin to getting rushed at by 4 Necromorphs at a time in the early levels whilst only being able to kill them by shooting them like 6 times in the leg and then curb stomping them. Impossible difficulty's a bit too far, though.

2. UPGRADE YOUR RIG AHEAD OF ANYTHING ELSE. Your amount of health and breath allowed makes MUCH more difference than the power of your guns.

3. Play in a dark environment by yourself late at night. You will sleep with one eye open.

i disagree, for ure first playthrough i recommend an easier difficulty, then play your second one on impossible. ok, only use these three main guns:
1-Plasma Cutter
2-Line Gun
3-Force Gun
thats pretty much all you'll ever need, oh yeh, wait to upgrade your throw distance till last, and your stasis length based on where your enemies are at (later levels u need longer stasis to actually stop em for any significant time). your rig is important, but you want damage early, then capacity, then reload

Possibly, but do you really think a straight jump from Easy/Medium to Impossible is a great idea? The contrast is massive. My advice would be to have your first playthrough on Medium to get the ropes, Hard to master the game and then Impossible to go for the 150 G.

Oh, and I forgot to mention that stasis is VERY important.

Remember you can use alternative fire pressing RB. This is most useful on the default free gun, it is also the best gun out there. For me, the machine gun is good to fight fast enemies. The firing rate will knockback enemy like crazy. Focus on three weapons since you only have enough money to upgrade 2 weapons anyway. If you want money, get chain saw, it sells big cash and the ammo is over flowing. Beware you end up getting all chain saw ammo and very little plasma cutter ammo.magicalclick

I haven't even started on Impossible yet, lol, I'm still only up to Chapter 3 on Hard. Not stuck or anything, just playing other stuff. Have you finished it on Impossible yet?
