Dead Space 2

[Callisto]

Thankfully I didn't pay for the Collectors Edition. The toy gun that comes with it is complete garbage. Really small, no movement aside from the trigger, no lights, and a big Made In China stamp right on it.

Not saying it's not chinsy, but it has 4 lights. On the right side of the handle there's a panel fastened in place with a screw covering a spot for 2 AAA batteries.

Ah, I looked for a battery panel, but didn't see one, guess I missed it.
edit: yeah... not too sure how I didn't see it.

Played two different matches on multiplayer, probably wont touch it ever again. I didn't find it too much fun, way too much of a clusterfuck that seems all about just mashing the attack button all the time.
If you could get 2 full teams of friends it would definitely be more fun and enjoyable, but otherwise no, it involves way too much teamwork

[BadKarma]

Must. Not. Read. Thread. fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

Probably some time in a week or two after people have played through the campaign a time or two I'll see if we can organize enough BGers to give a decent shot at it. Is it akin to L4D versus mode or what?

[Callisto]

protip: don't fuck around with windows in space

[Atreides]

I was just so totally pissed about my collector's gun not lighting up for like 20 minutes, then opened the thing and realized I had to put in batteries myself. It's still a piece of shit but IT LIGHTS UP

also lol for whatever reason it gave me the Hacker suit schematic even though I never beat Ignition, awesome

[Kuya]

Why would you have easy to break windows in space

Chapter 15 is a son of a whore.

I've never played l4d versus, but it's the same general idea. Engineers vs necromorphs. Engineers have certain tasks they have to preform and Necromorphs try to stop them.
example: One of the matches I had gave the Engineers 3min to destroy something. If they don't destroy it in the time limit, necromorphs win the round. If they do destroy it, the time limit is extended more and they have to destroy another target, if they don't necromorphs win. If they do destroy that one, time is extended again and engineers have to blah blah etc etc. This repeats about 3 more times. What that basically means is that Necromorphs win all the time.
And with no team work, if you don't just group together you're pretty much just gonna keep getting picked off by the necros. It's a necessity for the engineers to stick together. Necromorphs can basically do whatever the fuck they want because their respawn time is near instantaneous and they have no goal.

so the Dead Space 1 plasma cutter is exactly the same, just looks different? Anyone play around with the Rivet Gun yet? That was my favorite weapon from Extraction.

Also you should all beat Extraction if you got the PS3 version, the first DLC is apparently all about the characters from Extraction after the game ends

Yeah it's just a cosmetic difference, the new one looks different from the DS1 version so it's a preference thing. It doesn't appear that Bench upgrades differentiate between the two so they should always statistically be the same.

[Atreides]

yea just like with DS1 your upgrades carry over to the various verisons of the same weapon. Upgrading the collector's edition force gun upgrades the regular force gun, etc.
