Dead Space 2 (future DS titles DS1/DS:Extraction spoilers prob)

Moving the release date a little higher: January 25 2011. Get it.   

    
 
 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Another Update: Release date is set for 1/25/11 in the USA and another 3 days for Europe, so 1/28/11-
   

  
  
 Damn Isaac when did you get so secksy?

 
------------------------------UPDATE ABOVE --------------------------------------
  

   
An Actual trailer, I think I've died and gone to heaven. Yes I'm thinking Isaac is actually talking during the ink all over the place. "Shit in my head" :P
Sorry I'm a day late on this, though in all honesty I atleast beat IGN to it. :P 
 
Looks like Nicole is going to be talking in Isaac's brain again. Since I made the thread this means I have to make another damn collection of videos and such. (DAMN YOU MY POWET AWSOME FOR DELETING 2 OF MY OTHER THREADS!) 
   
Marker 3A has had lingering effects on Isaac's mind, that and the fact the black marker is popping up in those eyes makes me wonder if the Marker is going to pop up on Sprawl for some unknown reason. C.E.C. probably is Unitology's puppet, so we don't really know Isaac can count on them, since they probably are the ones that locked him up in a hospital. Team Extraction although should have beaten him to Sprawl probably won't make an appearance for a atleast a little while, but I do expect atleast Lexine or Nate to show up to help Isaac out or atleast be mentioned. Though that might be because of the DS movie plot might involve them, I think it's a prequel to DS2 or 3. 

Sprawl: Basically the place DS2 Isaac wakes up to a Necromorph mess. It's a civilian space station, which seemingly is a city. It has skyscrapers, malls, gyms, schools and a lovely Church of Unitology where the Tripod waits to give you the bloodiest death possible.

Sprawl itself is built on what remains of one of Saturn's Moons, which apparently was the first Planet Crack in the DSU, I coined it.  

Btw I guess I have to add that mentioning of modernware type action, in otherwords, don't worry DS fans. Your'll still be the solo engineer going through a city of Necromorphs, this time around being the head honcho,and talking. The whole more action bit pretty much says to me that your'll be just be at times fighting packs of children Necromorphs, flying through the air with your gun raised firing or to catch the tram thats running all over the place with your boots. No destruction of the awsome that is survival horror. 
 
Online Play? It's fine, who doesn't want to kill their best buddies? I know I do.

   
 
Q&A with Steve Papoutsis 
  

   
 
Collection Edtion Ideas: 
  

   
Yes at the very start of the video you see Isaac in DS2 using what appears to be decompression to launch a Necro out the window.  
Btw we know a Fullsized Plasma Cutter will be with the collectors Edition, fully functional ofcourse to dismember evil Necrmorphs comming to kill you. 
 
Game Informer DS2: 
  

   
Yes the music is there to ease your pain for waiting for DS2, it's okay to cry on my shoulder. Isaac did at the end of DS. COME ON LET IT OUT BIG GUY! 
 
ZOOMED IN!: 
  

   
Much more fitting music.

Dead Space: Martyr July 20th 2010  
Been trying to find the cover that I saw AGAIN, but I just don't know where it is. :P

""Cut off their limbs." "

"Think they're going to include the cutting tool used in the movie? That would be ftw, but difficult to properly aim. "

You mean the energy chainsaw or the energy chisel thing(They both have actual names I just can't remember them)? Those would probably be the first true melee weapons, though we don't know exactly what Isaac will be picking this time around since he is in a city. Those seem to come off as true mining weapons, maybe not chain saw, but the little chisel thing is. I could see that beinga fun alternate weapon for when your out of ammo much like a knife is, but I'm not too sure we will ever be seeing. But again we have another like 6-7 months of waiting, soon enough they will start making trailers for each weapon.

 
I would imagine building materials weapons would be the stuff he picks up this time around, twe have heard about 2 different new weapons, the Javelin with the alternate electric attack, and a more strategic weapon you use to essentialy plan for a certain Necromorph that runs away to get allies. Plasma Cutter is confirmed as well, but that might be the same one from the Ishimura. 
 
I can see how it would be fun though.

 "Isaac..." "Where are you going?" "It's not over between us" "You can be with me forever" -Superhelmet go! Time to kill alien space zombies. You know I didn't notice there was a marker behind Isaac in that trailer, it might be a replica for the Church of Unitology, since it appears he is in a Church of Unitology too. Might explainhe outbreak. I'm guessing Earth is going to be next on the Necromorph list after this game.  But then again it migh be the legit Black Marker. DS one told us about howthe Unitologists are collecting their dead on massive ship apparently and both Isaac's parents might be involved. You definately know Isaac's dad going missing had to do with the Unitologists, his mom is high rnking member to boot.   "

Earth would be an awesome destination for future games.  It would be cool to see the military take a stance.

You saw the animated film? I was LMAO the entire time because of the excessive amount of profanity. LMAO.  Not only that, but it was just so gory and bloody. LOL. I really can't think of any film that is gorier or bloodier or more graphic.  "

I'm expecting hit Earth. Unitology is running around with massive ships of dead bodies, which I assume they are going to turn into Necromorphs, that and they have people in high places pretty much everywhere. It shouldn't  be hard to bypass Earth's defenses or possibly find the Black Marker the government hid away hundreds of years ago. They have the resources, the connections and if they have the Marker Earth is in deep !@#$. 
 
Hopefully they don't jobber as bad as the Valor did. Either that Necromorph was SUPER lucky to find it's way to the bridge, or hell ran into enough dumb soldiers to wreck (Look's like the soldiers on the Valor for the most part didn't make it to the rifles and judging from the fact there was one in the escape pod and 3 outside they got jumped. But hey these guys have such crazy tech in the future I'll expect their mlitary to have kick ass weapons. Though the soldiers have not seen any real alien action though probably, seeing how much of a mess the Valor was when you got there, one was running for his life. 
 
Yeah K4tz saw the film, I was personally lawling how DS turns everyone's girlfriends into they guys that get their boyfriends killed. :P

" @Hellos: They intend to make a live action film soon.  One of these days.  Who knows? Maybe they will use nuclear detonations on Earth to prevent the spread of Necromorphs.    "

" @Hellos: They would probably make their own version of the film, which would not actually give it the respect that is due.  "

" @Hellos: Look what they did with the Resident Evil films. LMAO.  By the way, did you play the Dead Space: Extraction? "

I think when they diverted from the RE storyline big time in extinction it was a bit odd, atleast the new film has Wesker. :P

Yeah I enjoyed it on the Wii, probably was a skippable story despite setting up some events for Isaac to deal with and future events as well. Any fans that see the Extraction team at a later date will probably be filled in on the events through the story.  
Unless EA drops them out of the sky without explaining who they are or what Lexine's ability is and such, most players should manage without extraction. But still it was fun.

" @Hellos: Wesker rocks. I like those red eyes.  Similar to Mr. Sinister.  "

@Edamame

" @Hellos: I keep forgetting what his powers are though.  "

And it looks like the Ishimura has a new cover story to boot. In otherwords either the C.E.C., Government, Unitologists ended up covering up what happened to the Ishimura as a terrorist attack. How come I feel they are going to be pinning this on Isaac, that or just locking him up to keep him quite along with any other survivors. Anyways, thank you EA for filling my DS2 hunger. Kudos to you. 
 
Woot woot, fan raging here.

 
So if you followed the link your'll see a few things, Ishimura tribute with a link to  facebook  http://www.facebook.com/deadspace?v=app_4949752878    (where you can pay tribute to the people of the Aegis / Ishimura disaster, since I don't use facebook and really don't know anyone who does, I wouldn't have a clue exactly what paying your respects do so don't ask me.), two downloadable wall papers for your Iphone and computer, then one that tells you to sync your rig a back image of Isaac's new virtual rig he'll be having(Since I guess that last one was a bit tricky for him to see I guess. :P), and an Audio log "Did Isaac Survive" title, of a search mission of of two people picking up a distress call from what is implied the ship Isaac escaped on. (Could be a plot twist, don't know though).
 

 
Both of those images before that though, including the occasional teaser images and the teaser trailer essentially implied Isaac wasn't exactly welcomed back home with open arms.  Instead it appears that gave him a nice padded white room, lots of free medical injections like implied in this photo and a lot of time to think, still hearing Nicole's voice(well Marker 3A). Generally people's times at an insane asylum aren't exactly fun times, especially if they are being drugged up into oblivion for a while. Though it might have been justified since the Red Marker(Or maybe the black one after the Red Marker went what we believe Boom) was still giving him delusions and such, given the attacking Necromorph Nicole at the end of the first title vision, the possibility hes broadcasting a distress call while scared out of his mind alone on that small ship, the little teaser with a Necromorph in a nice clean white(Thats pretty much impossible, if the process of being killed into a Necromorph didn't get blood on the shirt, certainly the organs comming out and being rearranged did) that the image of a necromorph was being projected on someone else, much like the beginning of Extraction where the first guy your playing has gone batso insane seeing everyone as a Necromorph shooting people hes known for quite a while. all, killing them all. (Well you kill them all too, since your playing him. :P)  

Then you have the ominious vioce of the Doctor including Isaac's own believed vioce probably reacting to the crazy that is in his head from the Marker. 

But I'm guessing since Ishimura disaster was covered up to be a terrorist attack(Since apparently in Dead Space humanity hasn't ran into any aliens I believe, so anyone messing with Humanity in space is humanity), with Isaac locked up in an insane asylum with doctors drugging the man, which I'm guessing the government or unitology/C.E.C.(We all know by now CEC has a lot of Unitologists up in the ranks incharge) places a big role in keeping him there, despite apparently Unitologist believing him to have been blessed. (Crazy voices in your head = blessed by the divine relic, though it's implied the Marker is just the tool to set you on the path) "Isaac... we're all going to burn for what we did to you..." So from that people really did some not so kind things to Isaac, if that is the doctor at the Asylum, some higher up in the government or a Unitologist's speaking I don't know, but it seems Isaac might be not in an all forgiving mood when he finally does go on a Necromorph killing crusade in sprawl with the new suit, he might be looking the other way as some people are killed or kill them himself.  
 
Which might be a bit of a leap of faith from what we know of Isaac, but then again, Kendra was going to leave him for dead on the Ishimura, he wasn't pleased with Mercer saying "I hope one of his beloved Necromorphs finds him before I do." which one could probably use to argue either way, and the fact the past three years don't seem to be very happy ones, some of spent alone in space suffering from delusions, the other good chunk likely being drugged and thought to be a madman in a padded room without anyone giving him a second throught. So he might be more inclined to say !@#$ you and bam bam the limbs off of people.
 
Personally hopefully none of this blame for the Ishimura incident was put on his shoulders, otherwise I'll happily play Isaac as he blows apart whoever is responsible for tarnishing his name. :P  

If anyone didn't notice watching the DS2 teaser http://deadspace.ea.com/home#video/mediaid=beat_1_video_trailer-20090430125436864     on the main site allows for you to sign up to get patient email. Like the crazy picture posted before.

A very interesting interview: 
 
  

   
A bit of talk about how they a planning to improve stuff like kinesis and revealed quite a few new images of new Necromorph enemies while talking about them.

Good 3 minutes with reveals yay. :D 
 
Next video a bit of a break down of the teaser, with zoom ups and such.

    
 
 I'ts interesting.

May not be a floaty hand in space, but this looks awsome anyways.

SO EXCITED

"SO EXCITED "

Wow, you love you some Dead Space.  I've played and beat the the first game, and I will admit that it's great.  I just don't quite fully understand how a sequel is possible.  The marker's presence is spreading across the universe or some s***???

 
Release Dates: 
USA: 1/25/11 
Europe: 1/28/11 
 
7 months to go. :P  
Looks like they made good on their promise to bring back Isaac's old suit, with a few upgrades ofcourse.  
Ofcourse I didn't cut out the new images of the new suit, a good chunk of you are going to wear regardless.

Reborn as One update is now live on the DS2 site.  
http://deadspace.ea.com/ (
So it looks like the site itself has another 4 updates to go, this one we get a new trailer, an interactive Comic(Turn the page with your mouse), information on the new Javelin(Someone telling us about the Javelin as we get a 3d model to look at), and a Wallpaper of Isaac meeting a new friend!
 
Looks like Isaac's dementia from the Marker is going to kill him, some chick is promising she will be able to save him, if he can get to her.  
Maybe a new love interest for poor old Isaac that isn't a rotting corpse? Yay! Or another chick is going to stab him in the back, either way more fun for us. :P 
  
I'll see if I can dig up that new footage from E3 boss sometime later and add it to in a edit. 
Extraction will also be apparently bundled up in a limited edition copy for the PS3 of DS2, I'm guessing from what was said usuable on the Move.(HD and full Move Support) Guess this means Extraction's story has a bit more importance on possibly DS2.

I think they all ready messed up. In a the trailers I've seen it seems that Issac has lost the abbillity to curb-stomp, this will just not do. Also I cant see this game being as scary considering Issac now has combat armor actuall weapons and knowledge about the enemy. He's basically Ash from Army of Darkness onward. Basically once a main character has all ready exprienced the horror he/she becomes more adapt and better suited to fight it taking away from the terror. This is why most sequels change the main character. But all boring stuff aside the game look's fun just not scary but then again the first game wasn't scary either so ya.

" @Hellos: Well, I do appreciate the effort you put in to this.  Thank you, Hellos.  "

“The interactive comic-style game will give Dead Space fans a unique perspective on the events leading up to Dead Space 2, and will also introduce the storyline to a brand-new audience of gamers.”    

"The game offers four unique endings and upon completion of each one, players will be rewarded with unlocks including an exclusive suit, all of which can be used by Isaac Clarke in Dead Space 2 when the game releases on Jan 25, 2011. "
