As for the one necro infecting the whole ship... I'm wondering who exactly opened the escape pod. Maybe some low-ranking dude with no weapons?
Besides that, look at all the weapon lockers in the room with the shooting gallery. All the pulse rifles? Still in the lockers.
Doesn't account for everything, but still. It's the closest I've gotten to an explanation.
Do these people have any sort of life signs detector apart from the RIG signal? If not, they might have opened it thinking it was empty without doing a visual inspection first. People are stupid sometimes and, as we know so well, the Necros are good at the catlike hide-and-pounce routine.
Also notice that Satan had been knocked out of His chair before He ('kay, ending that now) was decapitated by the necromorph. I think he might have been the only one in that part of the ship, and wasn't able to send a message to the others aboard, either because the comm system was out because of the damage to the Valor, or because he didn't have enough time to send an all-hands alert.
Mr. Flappy is necessary to spread the infection in any case. I can't recall at the moment if he appears here or not, though.
The movie doesn't explain where Mr. Flappy came from. I'll assume
he's the one they originally recreated from the information gleaned from the Marker.
Also- who the fuck is stupid enough to recreate unknown DNA encoded in/on an artifact known to be of alien origin?
I want there to be a sequel for this game. There are also rumors of a live-action film:
Not only novels and toys, but Schofield is also "talking with movie studios right now. We have been all along. By doing this now, we could have a movie that bridges the gap between the two games." Hold on, did he say "two games"? It's obvious they're willing to franchise the hell out of this game, but it's also clear they're not willing to compromise on quality.
Schofield goes on to say that "the difference with this is we need to go in and say, "This is not a $10 million movie." Sure somebody could make it, but that's not what we are looking for. It's an expensive movie. What we're doing, say, with movie producers is handpicking our producer. We get approval on the scriptwriter, director and those sorts of things."
Probably known information (posted for the benefit of those who didn't know previously), but the questions left behind by this game will probably be answered eventually.
They probably did every thing in the name of SCIENCE! Or UNITOLOGY!
It might be a good idea to put just a little into more damage for the pulse rifle. I ended up using it on the very last enemy in the game and it was pretty satisfying.
Yeah i did it on that releasing the huge asteroid bit. Aimed for the asteroid in a panic as i realised i was short on air, slightly aimed wrong in my rush, sailed majestically towards the stars. It was pretty amusing, but i imagine doing it on purpose would have less of that effect.
02:51 in the first vid - I assume the growl was creepy dead thingy for "You're too slow!"
Also, regarding why everyone's so damn cryptic; would you prefer they went "Oi, chumley, I was going to send you through 25 different creature infested corridors, all filled with various loot, for an arbitrary fetch quest... but then I remembered the item is in my back pocket, so just head here and we'll blow this joint," or "Oi, bitchface, go here. *10 minutes later* Good, you've got that, but unfortunately this just exploded so now you need to go here before you can use that. *20 minutes later* Ok, you've fixed that, but now something else just got fucked up, so head back. Yes, all the way across the ship. NOW," all the while seeing every other living NPC in the video comm's background getting drunk and playing Twister?
...You know, even though that last part's an exaggeration, now that I've typed it I really want to see something like that happen.
EDIT - I'd pick the handgun... then shoot the guy and take the rocket launcher as well.

I still stand by my original theory that the space navy is made of nancy boys.
in the space navyyyy
you can sail the seven space-seas
in the naaavvyyyy
you can put your mind at easssee
in the naaavvyyyy
you can shoot some japaneeeeese
(sorry, one of my friends keeps on going on about how that was in an actual song he heard on the radio)
Oh, and if you're taking death requests, the one with the creepy-crawly, head thing is kinda cool. Though actually, you shouldn't get into the habit of dying.
On the screaming (it's the same guy, you just pass by him twice):
It's a Marine pinned to the ceiling by one of the gravity panels. He never dies, and you can't put him out of his misery
On that same note, I am terribly disappointed in your scrounging skills, Helloween. I'm pretty sure you must have missed at least 2 or so boxes that I saw in plain sight, as well as a nice big health pack in one of the sleeping cubbies in the armory. I blame the KBAM setup, since you actually have to pan the camera at a slower pace to turn on the 360 version, you get to see more.

I noticed that too, but I think it's more down to individual playing styles, rather than KBAM. I tend to explore more and check out my surroundings, where Helloween is more straightforward.
BTW, I loved the smurf voice in the sped up segment.
If I miss any items it's due to the sheer terror of being 5 seconds from a probable death. /excuses
It would be much less exciting if you meticulously checked ever nook and cranny. Bumbling about and being a bit rubbish is a part of what makes your Lets Plays so gosh darn entertaining. Well, that and screaming like a little girl, usually followed by a string of profanities.

I couldn't stop laughing when he got so vocal about there being not just one, but TWO gravity panels in that armory. Pure comedy.

Urgh, such dedicated updating! I'm three full updates behind!
I'd dropped a bit behind but caught up last night. Man those tall dudes don't get any less creepy And the speedy space marines are good fun, no? Doesn't make a lick of sense, but who cares! Also, I'm pretty sure things just continue to get awesome from here on.

I love how Hammond is managing to get around this ship armed with nothing more than a rifle and not get horribly mauled by these huge rooms full of babies, fatties, sonics, and pop-eyes. Dude must be Riddick or something :P

Cool. I'd love to see it when you've got the time to post it.
Awesome, I had the same thought. I imagined a "noooo, space!"
It's not exciting. =/ He just kinda keels over.
Set 21 - Fastest thing alive
Part 2
Part 3
This set did have some Blues Brothers in...but Warner wouldn't let me. This is why im up at 1:15 when I should be in bed. Sigh.
Still I replaced it with something good that wouldn't get me yelled at by people in suits.
