This game is very similar to the film. Aliens 1 & 2 are great but the hell happened with 3, it was sooooooo bad
3 is very good, watch the workprint/directors cut though, it's infinitely better.
Alien: Isolation...
- Thread starter SixTwoSix
- Start date

Or hit build, you get a noisemaker and you can store more items in the slots. Nothing to gain by not building the item as once committed, you can't remove items from a slot.
Once you can build an object, do it, then store remaining items in the craft slot again.
But it does save the androids so be careful with that, if they were right there when you saved, they'll be there when you load.
It's only because this was the first time in the game you get to see the real scale and size of the station. I was looking at everything then at the window on the left as you walk back in and that's when you see it scuttling over and disappearing.
Is all future DLC survivor mode?
Just finished...game of the year...nay possibly decade 
I've never been simultaneously so happy and disappointed to finish a game.
Nerves are shot...going to play sims
I was so "in the zone" during the last few missions I realised I was creeping past save points without using them as my focus was entirely on the alien.

Nah, you've got nothing to worry about mate. Keep striding about confidently with the shotgun, taking out androids with wreckless abandon. It's just another FPS once the alien is gone.
(titter titter)
I did get brave after the Alien went, explored every inch of the station...then things changed

Nail...hit...head, it's the next logical step for this.
Which part of the story is that, i've completed it and don't remember any explanation.
I do know the reason from stuff outside of the game (books/comics) but curious to the games explanation.
This game has ruined me, I can't be arsed with anything else now, i've tried playing 6 separate games today and got bored with them all
Outside of the game it's exactly as you said in the first paragraph.
However regardless of the Androids mandate, there is no in-game explanation of why the Alien does not attack them. I even watched it get stuck behind one in a corner. It's a shame the Alien doesn't interact with them at all
Medical is pretty much the only level out of all 18/19 where I had to hide a lot, the rest of the time it was using what i'd made as distractions and careful movement.
The trouble with medical is up to that point, the game is pretty much dead easy, even on hard setting.
It's the first time you really get stalked so closely and I know of a lot of people who have given up on the game completely at this point.
There is only one piece of CGI in Alien 3 and that's at the end when the Alien is killed. The rest is all puppets but it's not superimposed well.
Alien 3 is another film that benefits massively from the workprint edition. Weaver wouldn't let Fincher make the movie he wanted and essentially ruined it.
There's CGI in Alien? Or do you mean things like the computer terminals?
AFAIK, Alien is all model/puppet/practical effects, can't think of anything that could be seen as CGI and I must have watched that film over 20 times during my lifetime.
I've said it numerous times to anyone who likes gaming, in my top 5 games ever.
Never getting a sequel
