Dead space 3 makes me cry.

[bullet_sandw1ch]

So when you put the game on easy and blasted your way through, is that what your basing it off of? See when you put Dead Space on anything but normal, it becomes one of the harder Survival horror games to beat. See when I mention this, people always roll their eyes and go you shouldnt't have to. Thats when I go, well they have a difficulty setting and if you want the experience, put it on a harder difficulty and stop bitching.

you are kidding me, right? dead space 1 AND 2 were two of the easiest games ive ever played. when you beat a game using the starting weapon with only 4 deaths on the hardest difficulty, theres something wrong.

Jesus people...don't you think you over racting just a bit? I love Dead Space as well but....I wont call it untill the thing is out

 

[Vault101]

I LOVED 1 and 2 and was hoping 3 would be more like 1... Then I saw 3's gameplay...
WTF IS THIS SHIT? WHY EVERYTHING EXPLODES? WHY THE FUCK DID HE ROLLED INTO COVER?
AND WHY THE FUCK DOES CO-OP NEEDS TO BE IN EVERY FUCKING GAME THESE DAYS?

This will be like FEAR 3, it may be fun, it may LOOK like a Dead Space game but it won't be. =\

from what I hear the CO-OP is actually optional

as in you wont have an NPC following you around if you play solo

Before I annoy everyone I will first start with this

Dead Space should be an anthology, Isaac should be done and over with and a new character should pick up where he left off to eradicate the rest of the fragments or even fight a new alien threat entirely. It reminds me of the Halloween movies, because people cried so much about the series taking an anthology approach we got Micheal back in a bunch of horribly bad sequels.

However, here's what I have to say about Dead Space 3

It makes sense that he's taking cover since people are shooting at him, and it makes sense that there are people after him to get in these firefights with, and rolling isn't difficult. It makes sense that he'd eventually find someone to partner up with and having that partner be a soldier fits the style of the game. Most people who play the game don't play for the scares but rather the action and the developers realize this, 2 is more action oriented than 1 so 3 is where it probably should be. I would have done the game differently but so long as they don't introduce regenerating health I think, from what I seen so far, which is little, the game looks about right.

you are THE most logical person ive seen on the internet. every single thing you typed in this post is correct. no one played dead space for scares, because there wasnt any. it was the innovative action and tight storytelling, although i would like issacs story to end before they moved on.

If you read the article in game informer or listen to some of the dev commentary, you will find that dead space 3 is not a sole action game set on a planet. Do research people! So many misconceptions in this thread, no wonder game developers don't want to take risks anymore.

I'm actually really looking forward to this game because of the environment.

I know, people don;t actually stop to learnt he fact..they just flip their shit

ok...we all know Dead space isnt scary, it shouldnt be tyring to pass itself off as scary

HOWEVER

it still has unique aspects, the "cut off their limbs" the weopons the gameplay, I just hope it doesnt lose that

Sounds like it's time for a boycott.

Take back Dead Space!

Hmm, Retake Mass Effect was named because Of the whole take earth back Thing...
Maybe it should Be "Destroy the Marker...Pens that Ea used to add shooter gamplay to dead space with. Yeah"

Destroy The Marker...Pens. Genius!

Because that would take eeffffooort!


OT: Calm down peoples, like i say always, lets wait and see. Dead space 2 took the whole "cramped space station" thing as far as it could. If they did it again, i think fatigue for the series would set in. A change in locale is good i think.

The cover system is fine, combat like in the past games simply wouldnt work when the enemies get guns, just look at the last few resident evils >.> Im going to assume there will still be plenty of necro's aswell.

The free roaming and exploration could be really good.

Taping weapons together sounds really good.

As i said, lets wait and see

Don't see the real issue, the trailer reminded me of the second game's actually. Dead Space was hardly terrifying, but it's been a great series. I only worry that they are adding in a cooperative mode because it was demanded so much (by either fans or EA), and I just hope it doesn't suffer cause of that. Explosions in a trailer are not reflective of the whole game.

Compare this to my reaction to Hitman Absolution's trailer which I felt was just fucking stupid and made no sense in the context of the series. And similarly I don't think that's going to be reflective of the whole game, but it certainly paints to me that the developers have forgotten what Hitman is about (among other things)

I soft of don't blame them for going this route, Dead Space has been a franchise that hasn't exactly sold like gangbusters. I remember hearing way back when that sales for Dead Space 1 were so underwhelming EA thought it was going to drop the franchise, someone somewhere had enough faith in it and got a Dead Space 2 out. Problem is that while it sold better it still has really underwhelming sales for a AAA game of such polish. Sad thing is that horror doesn't really sell anymore, they're aiming at what sells and hoping it works. Unfortunately it probably won't, look at FEAR 3, while it was a really competent shooter with really interesting multiplayer elements it flopped hard because it alienates fans of the previous games and the crowd who they are aiming for are like oh what's this another fear? Well this new one will be like the others so we won't bother.

really? surprising considering all the stuff that came from the game/universe...(spin of games, that animated thing) well it least it has some following, and a 3rd game is being made so thats somthing

[quote/] Sad thing is that horror doesn't really sell anymore,[/quote]
but dead space was hardly ever "horror" even in the first place, in fact I don't think you can say "horror doesnt sell well" when there havnt BEEN any proper AAA horror releases for a very long time

I think they kind of realised by Dead space 2

or mabye peopel can only tolerate so many bland shooters so the sub-par ones get shafted

I think its unfair to call this another "Fear 3" regardless of the new features from what I cna gather Fear 3 [i/]just wasnt that good[/i]

like from the sounds of it the CO-OP was introduced in the worst way...you shouldnt have co-op "forced" on you if you choose to play single player, you shouldnt feel like your "playing it wrong"

I think fear 2 wasnt that great anyhow, not scary, convoluted plot, the series headed downhill

 

[Waaghpowa]

Calling it now. Dead Space 3 will end up being the worst in the series and, considering it's EA, will have a shitacular ending that will piss a whole lot of people off and ruin the series as a whole.

There are still bloody necromorphs. Fighting humans from cover will likely be a minimal part of the game.

But who am I to speak. Clearly, five minutes of trailer material definitely leaves you an accurate opinion of the game.

Yep, this guy ^

(also unrelated, but Balloonshop is amazing)

I like the look of the gargantuan cthulian necromorph monstrosities, looks like a nice variation instead of the infected human zombie types we've been fighting the last 2 games.

They said the cover mechanics are going to be at a minimum also.

Its Visceral, they've made enough good things to keep my optimistic. I'm not going to dismiss it just because it has EA on the box.

But enough with the internet tuff guy routine of "Dead Space aint scary hurr durr" because we get it already. You're cool and tuff and doesn't afraid of anything.

And also quit it with the "retake _______" because its just annoying and nobody is going to take you seriously.

you are kidding me, right? dead space 1 AND 2 were two of the easiest games ive ever played. when you beat a game using the starting weapon with only 4 deaths on the hardest difficulty, theres something wrong.

So when you stop lying, and tell me you died way more than that because everybody I have talked to(I know alot of people that have played Dead Space) they had a hella of a time. So when your ready, I will be waiting.

I didn't wish to get involved with this thread, since I find such complaining about a game we don't even have an hour of footage available left, to be utterly idiotic. But, this post I just quoted made me want to chip in.

I didn't die once on Hardcore Mode for Dead Space 2, nor Insanity for Dead Space 1. Each game, once you've already played through them once, are quite predictable and allow players to plan ahead. Just because you and your friends couldn't either be patient enough or be far more strategic, doesn't mean everyone else encountered your issues. Hell, I had enough ammo at the end of my Hardcore run to repeatedly shoot The Stalking Necromorph who couldn't die into the fan, killing it. Then again, most of the time in the game, I'd pick up something that I could use as a weapon with telekinesis and impale the morphs with them.

Want to know why I love the series? It isn't because of the horror, those nerves died years ago when Silent Hill mentally scarred me for life (which I love it for). Dead Space is like Resident Evil: Once you realize that you have a Grenade Launcher (or Plasma Gun), you don't really feel that afraid when you apply said weapons in a smart manner. What I love the Dead Space series for is its lovecraftian feel. The insight into how the human mind is truly a fragile thing, easily broken with the simplest of events. How there are things that humanity wasn't meant to uncover and as such, will suffer for once they've uncovered it (Markers, which I hypothesize are actually a higher form of life's version of a weapon of mass destruction. Send it to a planet, let the morphs take over, glass the planet, and move on.)

Psychology is where the true horror is. The type of horror that just builds up, creeping its way into your orifices, and spiritually violating you as you go along. Dead Space had a small form of this, but it lies only in the mental breaking of the various characters the players uncover or come across. It is mostly Action-Horror, with raccoon scares and the occasional close up on a mutilated face. With Dead Space 3 going into a frozen planet with new variants of the morphs and soldiers to face, it'll be interesting to see how they'll execute things. I won't let trivial matters such as Cover and Human enemies ruin it. Heck, they've seemingly removed the multiplayer to provide an optional co-op mode, which operates differently from Resident Evil 5, in which if you play single player, the AI will not be there to bug you.

So, is it that much to ask my fellow gamers to be patient? Then again, gamers these days don't seem to know the value of waiting, so I guess it might be.
