The pilot of the shuttle stated that the shuttle has too much weight to break orbit and needed to land and offload some people. The cause of the crash is revealed to be due to a combination of overcapacity in the shuttle and a fight breaking out in the cockpit. This incident is further expanded in the comics and the animated version unlocked in Dead Space: Extraction. In it, Abraham Neumann states the shuttle crash killed a couple hundred people and destroyed the remaining shuttles. This incident is first mentioned in Dead Space in an audio log ( Colony Chaos). As Nathan's group observes, one of the shuttles took off, only to nosedive and crash back into the remaining spacecraft, destroying them and killing untold numbers of colonists and security personnel. Gabe's group, after crossing this barrier, saw a number of these survivors lined up, waiting to be evacuated.īaines mentions that the situation is still very chaotic, and that security had to 'break a few noses' to prevent the colonists from overloading the shuttles and hindering the evacuation. Sam is eventually put down by Nathan McNeill.Īs the outbreak worsened, survivors erected a barricade to keep the Necromorphs and those afflicted with Dementia from entering Mission Square and the shuttle bays. The enemies that Sam fights turn out to be innocent people, as he was also hallucinating. Sam Caldwell witnesses his fellow miners and engineers commit suicide or violently attack each other under the Marker's Dementia effects this is a prelude to a Necromorph outbreak. There are technically no survivor encounters in Chapter One as a necromorph outbreak has yet to begin. 5.2.7 Slasher Victim at Washington Stationĭead Space: Extraction Chapter 1: Worlds Apart.4.10.4 Lexine Weller abduction and escape.4.7.5 Battle inside the Data Monitoring room.4.7.4 Security officer dragged to a vent.4.7.2 Screaming during the Necromorph invasion.4.6 Chapter 10: Déjà Vu on the Ishimura.4.5 Chapter 6: I Need Some Transportation.4.4.2 Second attack from the EarthGov Gunship.4.3.2 First attack from the EarthGov Gunship.4.3 Chapter 3: I'm Back to Walking Again.4.2.2 Screaming around the initial corridors.
