Acquire Plasma Cutter

Necromorphs are only killed by dismemberment, this means you should always aim at limbs instead of body shots or headshots. Open the loot boxes in the workshop to gather some ammo, then use Melee to open the lock on the door.

Chapter 1: New Arrivals Tips and Strategies

Aim for Bodyshots, Not Headshots

Contrary to most if not all shooting games, enemies in Dead Space do not die from headshots even if their entire head is cut off from their body. The only way to defeat them is to dismember them limb from limb.

Use the Plasma Cutter's Alternate Fire

The Plasma Cutter's Alternate Fire allows you to adjust the angle of its plasma rounds. Use vertical cuts for arms, while horizontal cuts for legs. Familiarizing yourself with the orientation of your fire helps in making sure that you dismember a limb with every shot.

Pay Attention to the Vents

While it is understandable that you wish to play with minimal sounds to save yourself from jumpscares, it is highly recommended that you play with the volume loud enough that you can hear the sound of Necromorphs crawling in the vents. This will take away the element of surprise and help you better prepare for the attack.

Keep Weapon Up During Blackouts

Whenever you come across a circuit breaker and have to sacrifice the lights, keep your weapon up to serve as a flashlight. It is already dark inside the Ishimura even with the lights on, so killing the lights will just take out almost all visibility around you.

Use Environmental Hazards

Whenever you approach a large area, you're most likely going to be facing multiple Necromorphs. Look for explosive cannisters. Shooting them can take out multiple enemies at once, saving you time and ammo.
