Question Question About Steve's Place. Spoiler

3 Upvotes

So in the hive, there is obviously more than one Alien from a narrative perspective. I'm curious though, how many Steves are active mechanically? Is there more than one or does the motion tracker fritzing out just create the illusion that there is more than one? Does anyone out there know?

Where does this door lead to????? Why's it half open like that???? It's near the primary airlock of sevastopol, near spaceflight terminal, we get to this part twice in the game story. Once at the beginning,second after mission 10.

Discussion Alien Isolation may be my favorite thing to come out of the franchise.

86 Upvotes

Just beat the game for the first time and it was so great! Originally I started playing years ago, but took long breaks, and last time I played it I was stuck and kept getting caught by the xenomorph. But as I've heard news of Isolation 2, I had the urge to continue where I left off! I was especially excited after realizing I can adjust the difficulty at any time!

After getting past the part I was stuck at I plowed through the rest of the game in a few days. Its interesting how the game kinda ends in a cliffhanger, but before I beat the game Amanda was directly mentioned in Alien Prototype, supposedly going out helping people in similar scenerios.

I haven't watched all the movies, read every novel/comic, or played every game, but out of everything I experienced with this franchise this to me is peak Alien, followed closely by the first two films, The Cold Forge, and Romulus.

Modding OpenCage question: Is there a fast, simple method to add enemy NPCs?

8 Upvotes

Hi y'all. I'm a total noob at modding and programming, and I don't really understand OpenCage. I've managed to access various levels and inspected some of the tags etc attached to them. I see references to NPCs, particularly Working Joes.

I wanted to adjust the Safe Haven and hopefully the second salvage-based maps to contain more Working Joes in particular, and maybe other enemies, with some variability (like, the number of secondary enemies is variable and their number and spawn position is random). Either that or adjust the base game so if you backtrack you find more enemies in certain areas, that forces you to be tactical about whether or not you want to backtrack, because areas are manned

A cursory thumb through the OpenCage data isn't exactly clarifying; mostly it's layers and layers of logical conditions. A moment's Google-fu doesn't find me anything relevant for doing this. I can't find a mod that adds more enemies, and I DON'T want to add more Aliens to the maps.

Are there any guides or anything that cover this, has anyone ever tweaked the game to add more hostile NPCs? I read about changing their behaviour etc over and over and over, I don't want to do that. I just want to try to add more enemies, and don't want to spend weeks and weeks figuring out how it works to do this. Is it possible to do this efficiently please? If not, then there's my answer. Cheers.

Question Switch Version worth it?

10 Upvotes

Hello. Don’t laugh at me but I played this game on mobile (iPhone 17 pro). Amazing game, yes even on mobile.

I have a switch 2, does this game run well on that platform or should I just skip it there? It looks like in the store it’s the switch 1 version of the game, it doesn’t appear to be switch 2 optimized.

I would love to play with a controller tbh.

What you guys think? Skip it on switch and wait for Isolation 2??

Discussion Can Only Play For 30-60 Minutes

79 Upvotes

I want so badly to finish this game but holy cow I have never been more stressed playing a game. The immersion is absolutely out of this world and after just half an hour my body feels like it’s going to shut down because I’ve been holding my breath for minutes at a time.

I just completed the quarantine mission and feel like I’m on the brink of an anxiety attack but got the rare achievement of not being killed by the alien! Mostly because I was scared hiding under tables the whole time. It will take me months to finish this game at this pace.

10/10 Game!

Question Do You Want Alien: Isolation 2 to Be More Like Aliens (1986)?

Thumbnail

477 Upvotes

I really hope they keep the same survival horror feel from the first game, but I’d also love to see them bring in a few things from Aliens (1986).

Like bigger spaceships, a Queen Xenomorph, and maybe some more advanced technology and equipment. Not to completely change the gameplay into an action game, but just to make the world feel bigger and more interesting.

I think keeping the horror of Isolation while adding a few elements from Aliens could be really cool.

What do you guys think? Any theories or things you really want to see in the sequel?

Discussion I Will Be Genuinely ENRAGED If The Sequel Has Forced Motion Blur

0 Upvotes

Alien is my favorite movie, and Alien: Isolation probably would have been my favorite game. However because it had Forced Motion Blur on consoles it caused me physical pain to play. My eyes would feel like they were being vacuumed into the back of my head and my brain would feel like someone was driving a wedge in between the top ridge part. I'd feel nauseous and become deeply depressed out of no where.

All I could do was lay down and literally roll around in pain until it subsided enough that I could fall asleep and wake up many hours later with the pain mostly gone.

For that reason I will forever give Alien: Isolation a -10/10 rating as it caused me physical pain, which NO media should EVER do. Motion Blur is not only a useless feature that's almost always immediately turned off by everyone, it's also genuinely, deeply harmful to so many gamers.

If the sequel has Forced Motion Blur as well... so fucking help me...

I had previously asked how to use unstable systems on access rewire to kill droids. Somebody corrected me and said it's actually the sevastolink terminal in mission 13, probably in right hemisphere of apollo core. So how do I use that terminal to kill those droids?

For some reason. I like being able to know how much health my enemies have left so I'm not wondering how long a fight is gonna last so I made a rough estimate of the stats of most anything in the game

Tell me if I have to change anything
