How do you actually stop them?
How do you actually stop them?
Not the first or the last impossible to comprehend cosmic horror he obliterates on the hunt for more food.
How do you actually stop them?
Nanomachines.
But how do you stop grey goo afterwards?
Black holes.
But how do you stop black holes?
You don't, and they're already a thing.
Nuclear weapons. Lots of them. Earthgoy navy is destroyed tho by DS3. So noone can stop them now
With rough, unprotected sex.
Probably some gimmick boss fight in a mental landscape accessed by a marker.
Ram FTL craft into it.
Kirby
The apex of cosmic horror being a pink blob will never not be funny (or scary for the receiving end)
Ice?
put a plastic bag around it, tie it up, throw it on the ground and stomp-jump all over it for a good while until it stops moving
How do you stop a monster the size of a planet? I have no idea, you would need some sort of massive planet-cracking spaceship. But that's just...that's just crazy talk.
use bigger guns
by the time your species is making markers you're already cooked
Dead Space lore involves huge mining industry based on "planet crackers"
hOw Do wE StOp ThE EvIl PlAnEt
Take a guess
And weeks of preparation with thousands of planetside personnel
how the hell are we going to make white people planet-sized?

It's short. The author's name is actually Robert Sheckley.
Wasnt the ishimura a planet cracking ship? Just get a buncha those.
Planet cracking as an industry collapsed in DS2, and there's no fucking way they'd pull out the Ishimura again, it went up with the rest of Titan station.
Find the source of the signal and turn it off.
I still don't get the plot of DS1. Why are the necromorphs attacking Isaac all the way till the end of the game? Make it make sense Anon Babble.
They're not intelligent, their sole purpose is to create more dead bodies and converge on the marker. That's it.
So what came first the moons or the signal?
Send the flood after them
The answer is that what the markers were and what they wanted was completely retconned so the plot of DS1 doesn't fit with the other games
With a planet sized fly swatter, duh
So the hive mind can't control the 'morphs?
We dont know and will never know. But my headcanon that ancient race wanted to achieve immortality and did it in the form of necromorphs. Now they're seeding their "gifts" all over galaxy
The BIG controlling the small was always a retcon, and never was in the game at all.
and add some zerg and metroid into the mix too, why the fuck not?
With a bigger fish.
eats it
becomes it
I stop and listen to them
which is apparently no one else did
just get Godzilla
youtu.be
the zombie planet is just gonna sit there and let you do your thing with a planet cracker
Because convergence hasn't happened yet, its like The Thing film, separate agents away from the main body are basically free agents
But more importantly
super advanced society capable of building colonies, space habitats, mining planets and active asteroids, capable of building gargantuan cargo vessels
doesn't have military branch navy with equal black matter weapons, gauss cannons etc to counter brother moons
we are supposed to believe Humans in the future are just some giga nomadic society....
Truly a dead fucking space
Space is big and empty. Why fight when you can fuck off, and how do you conquer and hold territory can fuck off if they want?
Can you control every individual cell in your body?
It can move all it likes. Earth moves but you don't fall off.
yeah dude, its just gonna let you land on it too while taking no hostile action. Oh and let's go ahead and address that it wouldn't do anything cuhhhrazy like use a tentacle to smack your pebble of a ship, nahhhhhhhh
how successful are you at hitting a fly with your finger?
there is only one way and its burning everything alive and i mean everything nothing can survive not a single cell
If a fly is buzzing around your face have you ever successfully swatted it? Nah, little fucker is too small and fast and you are too big and slow. Same principle.
self-replicating nanomachines
grey goo them
ya because thats never backfired on anyone ever
are you two really this retarded
just don't lose track of the off switch
in any case I honestly would rather get eaten by nanomachines than subsumed by the flesh hivemind
DS3 starts with Moon colony getting necroed
Earth is surely also infected soon after
They couldn't even make a DS4. It's just over.
glad you understand. now open the door.
The girliest way.
we could probably kill them even with today's nukes
You dont. Theyre entire design is unbeatable. Species only evolve into sentience due to the markers all so that they eventually become material for a new brother moon. Each moon is the result of a species that rose to space travel and then fell to necromorphs. Even if you try to beat them they just drive you insane and make you hallucinate.
Solid counter-argument. Truly your intellect is staggering.
Im guessing one Deathwatch killteam makes short work of all of them
They wouldn't bother sending killteams for something like that. They'd just cyclonic torpedo the thing.
planet grabs ship with tentacle
eats the contents
flings the wreckage into the nearest star like an empty wrapper into the trash
other planets pogface when he lands it
capital ship is as nimble as a fly
as is yours lol. Im sure if ds4 ever gets made youll clap when you kill a brothermoon in the dumbest way possible
I truly believed that when they revealed the Brethen moons, that Isacc, his crew, and the scattered remains of humanity would have use the remaining planet crackers to fight them. It would be a common sense resolution to the story, where a bunch of miners and engineers end up saving the galaxy. Bring back the Ishimura as the last one standing to close the story loop.
The reapers could easily beat them, for they set predetermined path of evolution which circumnavigates the need for Marker free energy
The cost is great but the alternative is even worse. At least the rings won't leave any traces behind like it did with the Flood, since the Necromorphs are entirely biological matter they'll be vaporized in the blast, same as the humans and all other organic life.
How do we kill this planet-sized monster in a setting that prominently features space ships called "planet crackers"?
Gee, I dunno. Maybe if they had set up for this very situation at the beginning of the first game we could figure it out.
Sex.
That's if you actually want to collect materials from the parts of the planet you break off. I'm sure the process for just breaking it is much simpler.
Can kirby even differentiate bad from good?
Just use the planet cracker ships from the first game
Are you saying a capital ship is slow because of it's size? Now think about how large the moon-monster is...
Nukes
Is that the parasitic entity from dead space that brianwashes and infects all?
The Q-Bomb
have you ever successfully swatted it?
Yeah I did and still do. The reason people fail to catch flies is that they don't want to dirty their hands.
You can even catch them alive sometimes.
This, people always forget that if the moons exists, humanity is already under their influence since even before we became sentient.
Leave the moon to me.
the sentient moon monsters with hundreds of tentacles that can spawn innumerable horrific monsters
im sure it wouldn't do anything like create a giant net of tentacles then make smaller nets in the holes of those nets or anything no way man. you're right just go land on the flesh planet and crack it dude, you got this!
the story begins with who's gonna win
knowing the danger that lies within
aboard the ARK, a genius at heart
wanting to unlock the mysteries of life
Damn if only physics were part of Dead Space worldbuilding
They only had Earth and 13 Space Stations colonized, you can't rebuild after losing 99.9% of the population
hey look, someone who played the games
Are you okay bud? I think you had a meltdown there halfway through typing that out.
message of the games is that you can kill eldritch abominable horrors beyond comprehension with a reliable mining tool
OH NO HOW WILL WE STOP THIS PLANET ELDRITCH ABOMINABLE HORROR BEYOND COMPREHENSION WITH OUR RELIABLE PLANET CRACKING MINING TOOL?
UR MAD
just go kill yourself lol
We dropped a rock on the first one, killed the second with our mind, and killed the third by poking it in the eye
I mean you do seem pretty mad. It's just a videogame bud. Calm yourself.
That's not the message at all. Its the futility of struggle. Play the fucking games. 3 ends with humanity losing.
Plasma cutter. Their central nervous system is located in the longest tentacle. Cut that off (3-4 blasts) and the whole thing will be dead. (Can stomp on it to confirm.
It was a joke you sperg, chill. Or should I have gone out of my way to edit that one meme to be even more on the nose?
Do nothing and blame others?
durrrrrrrr counter argument my retarded argument
k
mad bud mad bud mad bud melty welty
lmfao you deserve a ds4 in all its glory, truly
Land on it and start stomping.
The British Empire did it once, they can do it again.
Wanna know the funniest bit? I've never even played a dead space game. I'm glad we could have fun together though.
Jokes should be funny. Being intentionally stupid isnt funny, even if it was "ironic".
It played Isaac like a fiddle, with elaborate illusions. Why can't it make his job a bit easier? The more I think about it the less sense it makes.
I've got an even funnier one for you big dog, neither have I.
You should go get tested, (you) might be entitled to free 'tism bux every month! Just don't own more than $2000 in total or else
Nice. We should meet up and play that DS3 co-op together. You seem like such a chill dude after all.
my peanus weenus :D
Based Diebuster enjoyer.
Even in your image youre calling yourself a retard. Since you thought the message was cool mining equipment. Too bad I dont have that image of everyone laughing at the fag who pissed himself and thinks everyone is laughing at his joke instead of how he just publicly humiliated himself. Make a real joke or just stop posting, nobody wants to feel secondhand embarrassment for you.
Remind me why cutting the limbs off necromorphs kills them again?
I was posting the original meme and the entire post was sarcasm, you dumb spergoid. Go throw a fit in the timeout corner already and be sure to scream nigger a few times and call me a tranny while you're at it.
godzilla is cheating.
my my those eyes like fire
i'm a winged insect you're a funeral pyre
It wasnt sarcasm, it was just you being dumb and trying to play it off as a joke. Do better. Don't be such a sad loser next time.
It just disables them. It's more effective because they're not animated with vital organs. All tissue is converted into a means of movement and killing. Just ignore the ones with biiiiig yellow sacs because I don't have an explanation for all of that shit.
Machines that operate without the need of organic life.
Look at how fast the necro planets move at the end of 3. Humanity is fucked. Realistically the only way to win is to wait them out because something of that size will probably die of starvation soon.
They realize that their killing ability is gone when you delimb them so they go back to being dead matter, same reason why combat forms in Halo 2 and 3 disintegrate after a short walk when you shoot off both of their arms
You get a Brethren Sun. duh.
That's not how Nono does things.
the black holes were holding back an even greater evil all along
I'm sorry, Sagittarius A*, I take all the bad things I've said about you back...
you send the daleks i doubt a flood could get through the casing
Yes.
...So is my penis bad?
something of that size will probably die of starvation soon.
They dont die or starve. Theyre literally made out of an entire species corpses. It takes 10s of thousands of years for each one to spawn and the others dont die off in the mean time.
Only if you dont use it to have sex with your wife for the purpose of conception.
what the markers were and what they wanted was completely retconned
I want to know
You cant
>holding back an even greater evil
No, they just devour everything that gets too close. And supposedly slowly evaporate if they are rotating.
More like someone who paid zero attention because the whole thing is an arduous process that only tears out relatively small chunks of a planet's surface at a time. The giganigger tentacle monster isn't just going to float around and do nothing while youn spend weeks trying to dismantle it.
DS planet crackers are just fancy excavators. Not WH40k exterminatus style devices.
Why would it have teeth? Who ever drew this is a retard.
One (1) X parasite.
gets hit by an apple
instantly loses
Yeah i dont think so
Nigga, I don't even play these games and I know "planet cracking" is basically just slang, they cut a chunk out of a planet then spend, like, years just mining that chunk in space.
Can’t they just grow limbs back? Or do the parasites grab tissue from other areas of the body and move it to the arms/etc to make blades and shit
Or what’s stopping a delimbed necromorph from just repurposing remaining tissue into a weird snake like thing
theyll pool a complete deus ex machina by somehow having a prototype laser weapon the Earth Federation navy just had lying around. As Issac decends into the abandom weapon's facility he fights necromorphs and then he'll aquire the super proto weapon and blow up any Brethen Moons
credits roll
Wasn't there an accident in the lore where a fuckup or equipment failure threw a piece they were lifting back down and completely smashed the planet apart? If that shit can destroy an entire planet BY ACCIDENT, you can bet using it wrong on purpose can be weaponized.
It's obvious that's the climax they were going for, from the very first combat encounter Dead Space has been about using power tools wrong on purpose to fight space zombies. There's no way it's a coincidence they made the ultimate space zombie a planet and the ultimate power tool in the setting a planet cracker.
I think it's stated that it's all repurposed from the body/bodies used at the time of reanimation. Like the slashers shoulder limbs are made from repurposed intestines and rib bones
With fire... the toughest stain remover.
To add to this I have no fuckin clue how the regenerators work, they sorta break the rules so I could be fraudulent and homosexual on all of this.
Big difference between digging a mine into the ground to extract resources in a safe way, and digging a really shitty hole and filling it with explosives.
Why do the babies grow 3 back tentacle guns
A speed boat is more nimble than a capital ship even if its less nimble than you. Inertia is a real thing and so is mass
By not releasing Dead Space 4.
Nuclear bombs, directed asteroids, massive railguns, etc.
Everything controlled by AI to avoid being under their influence
I wanna say guts+bone fragment bullets.
