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.
