Durrsaster Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Do you guys recommend getting the two achievements stated in the title at the same time or doing two separate play throughs? I heard that ammo conservation is a big thing and thus would it not be better to only use the plasma cutter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyger7 Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 To upgrade everything, you must play multiple times anyways. Stack the one gun with one of those to make it much easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diesel98a Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 i am doing my one gun run through on normal, save insane for later....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I JUST D0 WORK Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I would also Reccomemd doing one gun on a lower difficulty. I used the plans cutter and force gun on my impossible play through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HabsCen10ial Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 I'm doing them together because the Plasma Cutter in my opinion is one of the better guns when leveled up. Just make sure you aim for their lims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clowhagen Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 I agree with Habs ^. I'm going threw on impossible right now and I've only been using the plasma cutter. So long as you aim for limbs it works wonders. It'll work even better for you if you aim for the same side of the body (Example: Take off both the arm and leg on the left side of the body and they will die).

Especially if you can get it upgraded. Also take advantage of some exploits such as the Peng duplication and infinite credits glitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Winged Joker Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 I loved the game, so I made it last as long as I could, and I did them on separate runs. I also wanted to enjoy Impossible Mode with all the arsenal at my disposal, and I really did. It wasn't easy, nor desperating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was tempted to do that, but I just found most of the guns to be complete shit (looking at you Flamethrower) so I just decided that an extra playthrough for 40G would be a waste of time.

Yeah, some of them were rubbish indeed. I usually went with the plasma cutter, that sort of assault rifle, the chainsaw thing and that big piece of junk that shot wide beams. I can't remember how useful they actually were, but I do remember it was some funny, bloody, severed-limbs-everywhere party. It depends on how badly you want to enlarge the experience. I knew I was close to an end when I realized there were only two achievements left, so I did it that way. And after going through both runs, I still recommend it to everyone who really likes the game and has the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two playthroughs was definitely enough. I heard in Dead Space 2 the hardest difficulty only allows 3 checkpoints. I'm not looking forward to it at all!

I heard in Dead Space 2 the hardest difficulty only allows 3 checkpoints. I'm not looking forward to it at all! Dead Space 2 was fine, but I didn't enjoy it half as much as I enjoyed Dead Space. And yes, that's the achievement. Sure it's challenging, but I found it absurd and desperating rather than funny. It's the only achievement I didn't get, I believe. As I said, it depends on how much time you want to spend. Well, and as for the "hard" option, it also depends a bit on your own skills. So Durrsaster, it's up to you. Both ways are completely doable.

Infernal Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Im doing my one gun playthrough on easy, just to make it a lot easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SicklyPlague Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Depends on if you have already played the game. First time playing go through on normal upgrading your suit and weapons especially the plasma cutter ad get one gun on a normal difficulty. next play through use plasma cutter and another weapon of your choice to do impossible on. Or to make it easier do both at the same time the plasma cutter is the best weapon in the game anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GamerPerfection Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I found this game very hard, but maybe I gave up too soon. But the bit I got to was I was in a room, like a laboratory or something and then I was sealed in and had to fight and kill a certain number before the door opened. Well my problem was that I had so little ammo that I didn't have enough to really do anything. Only option I had was to keep going and get annoyed not getting anywhere, start again or give up. It's only one of two games i've ever given up on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puppys Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 A little late to the thread, but I would not recommend doing both on the same profile. Impossible is very difficult, and I found myself using three different guns (force gun and line gun occassionally) and I still struggled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eggnogga Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Very late to this thread, but I'm running through the game for my last achievement -- Impossible Difficulty. The first time I played through the game on easy, I only used the plasma cutter, and as of writing this, I'm about 66% done with the game on Impossible only using the plasma cutter. Now, I do have the Tank Suit and the Heavy Damage Plasma Cutter fully maxed out, so that probably helps things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fragarach Luin Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Doing Impossible with just the plasma cutter is actually my favorite way to play. It simplifies things and makes it easier than upgrading multiple things, in my opinion. The only guns I would otherwise recommend are the line gun, and the force gun. Honestly, the force gun makes the game far too easy, in my opinion. And it's Dead Space! Gotta do it hardcore with the iconic weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millsk Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 I agree with the others, safer bet and less stressed out just going for one achievement at a time! save time in the long run! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you really think that the game is so hard on Impossible that using more than one gun will potentially save you as much time as an entire extra playthrough, maybe you should consider playing an easier game. Besides, the Plasma Cutter is pretty much the best gun in the game. What other gun is going to increase your chances of beating the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
