Chapter 3: Course Correction Walkthrough

Course Correction Summary

Course Correction Detailed Walkthrough

	Objectives
1	Reach the Engineering Deck. As soon as you get into the Hangar, the area gravity generators will malfunction. Use your thrusters to push forward and reach the Engineering Deck. Go way past the vacuum and look for an opening on the far right side of the path. The shaft will lead you down to Engineering. Go straight forward and ride the elevator to the Engineering Deck.
2	Activate the Control Console. When you get off the elevator, go straight for the control console to activate it. This will allow you to load a diagnostic report of what else needs to be fixed on the Ishimura. After getting the diagnostic report, you will receive three objectives. ・Refuel the Engines (South) ・Refuel the Engines (North) ・Restart the Centrifuge
3	Refuel the Engines (South). Head into the Preparation Room and past the Machine Shop door on the other side of the room. Go down and get the Ripper near the door to the Bathroom, and a security log inside the bathroom. Go inside the Refueling Control Stations and reach the opposite side of the room where you have to use Kinesis to grab a gondola. Ride the gondola to the control terminal on the other side of the area. Find the Fuel Station Keycard next to a save point, and use it to open Fuel Management across from the Oxygen Recharge. Once inside Fuel Management, reroute power from the Circuit Breaker to activate the Refuel Control Terminal. You must choose between killing the lights or the O2 supply. Go up to the Refuel Terminal, use Kinesis to pull down the latch and activate the refueling sequence. Return to gondola, then to the other side of the room.
4	Refuel the Engines (North). Once you get off the gondola, use the Locator function to navigate which ramp you need to go up to get to the other engine. Follow the ramp until you reach a Refuel terminal similar to the first terminal. Use Kinesis to grab the latch and activate the refuel sequence. After refueling both engines, use Breadcrumbs if you cannot find the ramp that leads up directly to the Control Room. Once you're near the door, you will see an Infector turn a corpse into a Slasher. Break the lock on the door to continue and kill the Necromorphs inside.
5	Activate the Centrifuge. From the Save Point in the Control Room, head to the elevator to the Centrifuge. Head to the Decontamination Chamber and kill the Necromorphs that will appear as the protocol sequence plays out. Once the doors unlock, you can go to the Centrifuge. You will reach a fork in the path. Go to Centrifuge Control North to get some supplies and a power node. Then head to the South section to activate the Centrifuge.
6	Manually Ignite the Engines. As you exit, you will be attacked by a Tentacle. Stay calm and aim at the yellow sac to free yourself. Take the elevator back up to the Control Room. Go thorugh the door right of the Save Point. Continue forward to enter a Zero-G zone to the Engine Room. Use Stasis on the giant fan to get to the Circuit Breaker behind them, then choose reroute power to Airlock 2 to open the Engine Room door. Once you're through the door, shoot the yellow mass to reveal the door to the Engine Room. Grab the Flamethrower from the body attached to the wall and continue shimmying yourself through the wall. When you reach the other side, go left towards the elevator that will take you down to the engine. Continue on the walkway until you reach another elevator; shoot large yellow sacs when your way appears to be blocked. Once you're at the base level, use Stasis on the door to the Engine Room and head straight for the room on the end of the hallway. After dealing with the Necromorphs inside the Engine Room, grab the Power Cell to ignite the engines. More Necromorphs will start to appear. Once they are dealt with, go up to the main console to activate the engine ignition. Then return to the Tram Station.
7	Return to the Tram Station. Once the engines are ignited, you can use the Breadcrumbs function to find your way back to the Control Room, and towards the Engineering Tram Station. Hammond will tell you to meet him on the Bridge.

Chapter 3: Course Correction Tips and Strategies

How to Activate the Centrifuge

Once you enter the Zero-G zone, hover close enough to use Stasis and Kinesis on the Generator Modules and attach them to the Centrifuge. Afterwards, hover up to the higher platforms to the Centrifuge terminal. Once you active the Centrifuge, the gravity will be restored and you will enter a vacuum. Use the elevator to get back down to the base levels.

How to Get Past the Centrifuge

Time it just right and run in the opposite direction of the Centrifuge. This will allow you to see the Centrifuge as it comes towards you, giving you warning to get in the spaces to refill your oxygen tank and or escape the Centrifuge. Once you reach the end, get on the elevator before your oxygen runs out and exit the Centrifuge.

How to Activate and Get Past the Centrifuge

Be Wary of Corpses

If you have ammo to spare, always give a warning shot to a seemingly suspicious corpse in the hallway. Chances are, these could be Necromorphs posing as corspses to catch you off-guard.

Do Not Shoot Pregnant's Stomach

Pregnants are a type of Necromorph with enlarged stomachs that hold Swarmers, hence the name. If you shoot its body, the stomach will burst releasing a bunch of Swarmers that will add to your list of current Necromorphs to deal with. Instead, shoot at its limbs to kill it.

Use Crowd Control in the Engine Room

While in the Engine Room, there will be Stasis and explosive cannisters that can help you on multiple enemies. Use Kinesis to grab cannisters and chuck them at groups of Necromorphs for maximum effect. Likewise, getting the Flamethrower and using its alternative fire creates a good wall of flames for crowd control.
