Dead Space 2

I just got to the shop for the first time and I appear to have a lot of things I can choose from, that all have 0 cost?

I didnt have this on the Xbox 360 version I'm sure?

I do however have Dead Space 1 on my steam account that I completed.. I can find anywhere really that explains all this free stuff?

Probably the DLC that was released free - when DS2 was released on PC everyone was told "no DLC" but a crafty man unlocked it - the files were already there. DS2 makers realise the cat's out of the bag and enable the DLC free on PCs because they are awesome/slightly caught out

will there be DLC for DEAD SPACE 2 PC?

Ah ok I managed to google it.. one of those things where you gotta get the right terms for google heh. It seems its only the first shop.. so I bought the engineer suit and left the rest.. I hate starting with everything.. I'm hoping the next shop is "normal"

Edit: FFS the next shop, has all the normal stuff + the free stuff. This is annoying.

The free items ARE the DLC items in which Console players had to pay for.

A little annoying you get them on your first playthrough.. but I'm playing on zealot so its kinda welcomed.. lol and tbh I've played through this to begin with but never completed it

If this DLC is given free to all PC gamers now, can the DLC be removed so the free stuff is gone? I was going to play this on the PC over the next few months but that free stuff is putting me off. On the 360 I loved the way you had to struggle for ammo/upgrades.

I guess, don't patch it. I don't think it forced me to do so but it was a while ago so not entirely sure.

ToejaM · 28 Nov 2011 at 16:34

I had no choice.. as I only bought it yesterday so I got what I was given!

Yeah, I found this too, and I wish it could be hidden.

IMO to have already created the DLC before you sell the game is bloody shameless. They should have put the extra effort into the game, and then the same team help the DLC.

That's the trouble with DLC.. the dev/publisher can be so focussed on extracting as much coin as possibly that they make the core came suffer. Games like Morrowind/Oblivion had the right idea for gamers benefit, but it might not be the most profitably for the company.
