TheParanoidGamer - Some new details on Dead Space 3 has been revealed from the next Gameinformer issue.

[NYC_Gamer]

These two features i am against

Now has universal ammo pickups
Cover system added

[Lucretia]

wtf, the game is even easier now? i beat the first 2 on hard on my first try and still found it too easy. i thought there was plenty of ammo, not universal ammo.....great so now im not forced to use the other guns when my hand gun runs out of ammo.

hope they let you play on Very hard from the start then -_-

[dark-hollow]

and the streamlining plague strikes again!
seriously am sick of this shit!

[ufo8mycat]

Not sure why people are surprised.

There hasen't been a difficult game now for couple generations

Catering for the casuals

[Greyfoxdbz]

What has this game become?

Universal Ammo Pickups....
....
....
LOL....catering to those dumb enough to not find ammo or switch guns...this game doesn't sound good already

[Lucretia]

for real, it was already to much that the game had a quest locator now this crap. bleh

well hopefully they have more than 5 enemy types this time

Guys before we all start flipping shit... lets just wait till monday, when we get to see the game in motion

Cover and Universal ammo(still torn on both) might add something good to the game

Maybe your gun combinations interact with one another, and besides, many people know that everyone primarily uses the plasma cutter... so they just kept giving plasma cutter ammo

Maybe they did this to encourage gun experimentation... we don't know. Lets wait till monday

[user5467007]

If people keep waiting for these things to happen then it will be too late to complain

First you'll want to wait to see the guns in action, then you'll want to wait untill closer to release to hear even more news and then you'll want to wait untill the game is out and by then it will be too late to complain

Dead Space could of been great, it could of taken all of RE old fans but instead they've became greedy and tried to attract the action, COD, crowd.

I say we complain now and make ourselfs heard.

EA have f*cked up...it's time they felt the consequences of their actions

[snipes101]

I highly doubt they will change anything even if people complain. It would be too much work to change anything and they made the decision so they will stick with it.

[NastyLeftHook0]

Dead Space is easily this gens best horror game. I cannot wait for the third.

[dgonza40]

Or at least it was..

They lowered the intensity compared to the 1st dead space.
Dead space 2 was more action orientated, and now they
seem to be making it easier gameplay wise.

Althoughh I love the series (platinumed both, and CE for DS2),
I'm not psyched for the direction their heading in. Hopefully I'm
all wrong. Gonna get it regardless because the story is so interesting
but probably not day 1

[FunAndGun]

dropping competitive multiplayer - YAY!

adding co-op - BOO!

Army of 2 in space is not needed.

[SwiftShot]

How can you even say that!!!

[Droid Control]

love co-op, hate multiplayer

[xyxzor]

It could work, or break the survival horror element even more.

[jdfoster]

Great! So glad they're dropping multilayer and interested to see how co-op will work

[FarCryLover182]

Universal ammo? Dafug???? Did Bioware come over to the Visceral studio one day?

[colonel179]

What does universal ammo mean?

I am not liking a lot of stuff that the game is adding. It's weird because Dead Space was a fresh air from the changes (for worse) that Resident Evil was having. Now Dead Space is trying to go RE route? (Which is the worst route to take ever for this game)

[bwazy]

It means that there is ONE ammo type for EVERY gun.

Much like in the Mass Effect series.

[Cajun Chicken]

Concerned about the inclusion of cover unless it's more related to stealth.

[FarCryLover182]

The rumors from a while back pointed to human enemies. So it'll probably be to avoid the gunfire from them as well as Necros who shoot projectiles. Or maybe humans are the enemy the whole game...with a pinch of necros spliced in. I would hope that's not the case.

[Rampaged Death]

Cover system ...... Noooooooo !

[IIC0mPLeXII]

Good they dropped multiplayer. Looks like Visceral realized how stupid the inclusion of it was in Dead Space 2. Kudos to all the idiots who bought the map packs for it, you essentially funded Dead Space 3.

[AgreeFairy]

They realized how stupid multiplayer was in Dead Space 2 but were too dumb to see how retarded co-op is in Dead Space 3. Dead Space 3 will be the worst Dead Space game yet.

[FarCryLover182]

The map packs for DS2 were free though. They even knew then it was a failure.

[tigertron]

I only want co-op if its like a horde mode.

[Rhezin]

why do people b!tch about having no competitive multi yet WHINE about having co-op? Stupid..

[2v1]

what a waste of game dead space

[ninjahunter]

You know what, if their cutting co-op in lost planet 3 then im ecstatic that their adding it in Deadspace 3.

[Blitz001]

Uni ammo? WTF is wrong with developers these days...

[Kinect]

Incoming flop

[RandomDude655]

Universal ammo and....
...
...
...
more ammo...

Just a hint publishers...making your game more like Uncharted/Gears/COD doesn't guarantee you sales, as those games are the best of their breed. Give us something unique for a change.

Don't know how I feel about this either "They want DS3 to be less linear than 2&1". I kinda liked the "shuttle" structure.

[AAWELLS09]

So Dead Space 3 is dropping competitive multiplayer, co-op, release date, and more? If they keep dropping stuff there wont be any thing left. jk ;)

[InTheLab]

How much do you want to bet they let you save anywhere in DS3 instead of the static checkpoints...

Gen 7...worst gen ever. Streamlining, Fanboys, and DLC....

[trenso1]

Co-op not bad as long as the single player doesn't suffer.
Cover system? Could work but takes away from the tension of always having to watch your back
Universal ammo? Wtf were they thinking this is (or was) a survival horror game. What's this point if every gun has the same ammo type?! Always saving ammo in your best gun in case shit went down. Now you won't need to and just use that gun all the way through the game. Are they gamma give us fully upgraded guns too make this game easier than it already is?

[Breadcrab]

I'm starting to think Visceral Games has a very low opinion of our intelligence.

[Oldman100]

It seems to be a trend for almost all developers this gen. It saddens me.

[Double_O_Revan]

Damn, one of my favorite games is taking a dive. Not too thrilled with the changes. Have to wait and see.

[chukamachine]

As long as pacing is correct the ammo, should not matter. But not quite sure why they messed with it.

Glad co-op is in, hopefully both split and online.
