I don't think I'm qualified to comment on that one, I'm not sure anyone is

I finished this last night.

The attacks from behind became mentally annoying later on. It feels like that's the games only trick. At times it reached Alan Wake levels of annoyment. The bench is crap and most weapons are a waste of time. Do the new suits make a difference? At least the previous games actually stated what improvements they had. There's far too much ammo and health and a complete lack of standout set pieces. Plus the same boss fight five times. And I think the game made me jump just once and that was right near the end.

And yet despite all thst I really enjoyed it. It's a shame they've moved so far away from what made the first two so good but once I got over my initial disappointment I started to really enjoy it. Particularly the last three or four chapters which felt much more like old school Dead Space. The difficulty ramped up a fair bit too. I can't wait to play the classic mode. Maybe that will fix some of the issues.

I'm on chapter 15 its is a strange one with all the faults but I'm really enjoying this

From what I can tell classic mode just takes away your crosshairs and sets the game to hard.

Ive no idea if the suits improve your Armor or anything either, probably not. The snow suit is just to stop you freezing, N7 Armor just makes you look like you're commander Shepard ect.

They pretty much all look terrible, and that's the only difference. Cosmetics.

The attacks from behind are annoying as hell, I like to back in to a corner and take them all down but I literally had enemies drop from the sky on to my head.

I think this comment I read pretty much sums it up perfectly for me

Best way to describe DS3? Isaac is no longer a troubled broken man of few words, but Nathan Drake's loudmouth, ass kicking brother in space.

I'm liking it the more I play it. This happened with me though with resi 6 with a coop partner. Anyone built any decent guns?

If anyone else fancies trying the harder setting give me a shout.

oh dear - its not the guy from uncharted doing the voice work?

[Synthesthesia]

Definitely not haha. This is the weakest of the Dead Space games but I've still really enjoyed it. I think now after letting it settle a bit more i'd probably give 1 a 10, 2 a 9.5 and 3 an 8. By no means a bad game, just loses some of the things that made it special IMO in favour of making it appeal to more people.

About 60% in now. Every single time you are attacked by enemies in this is like some kind of sadistic carnival shooting gallery where you're targets pop up in four places at once and are impossible all to hit before they disapear (or well in this games case before they stab you to bits). Even with an upgraded stasis duration it's just a constant up hill struggle to not get overwhelmed.

Does anyone recommend any of the weapons? Becuase every single one I have tried is terrible in one way or another.

You are so going to love the last 4 chapters if you are getting pissed about the spawning at 60% in.

Weapon

I use this

the cutter rips everything to bits and the knife tears spawners to bits like an overpowered melee

there it is
