Dead Space 3 will allow players to craft weapons from scratch. Watch the video to learn more.
When EA took to the stage at this year's Gamescom to showcase their games, one of the highlights was undoubtedly Dead Space 3.
The publisher surprised Dead Space fans a little by revealing that crafting weapons will be a new feature in Dead Space 3. Now, the folks over at Visceral Games has released a new video showcasing just how this new crafting system works.
While modifying weapons is nothing new in the franchise, Dead Space 3's "Weapons Bench" gives a whole new meaning to Isaac's Engineer occupation. In this third iteration of the space-horror franchise, Isaac can now make weapons from scratch!
If you don't want to tinker with all these, the game will also offer a system where guns can be built using a click of the button. It seems scouring for items and supplies will play a more important factor than just looking for bullets and med packs.
Hopefully, this won't relegate Dead Space 3 to just being a shooter by offering uber-weapons that can take down any foe with a single shot.
Now that we've seen how this works, is this something you'd be willing to tinker with or is this just a move by EA to further make the franchise into a shooter?
