![]() ![]() ![]() Even more strategy comes into play as the Necromorphs, since they can respawn anywhere on the map so long as there’s a vent, resulting in catching unsuspecting prey off guard. It’s extremely easy to be swarmed and you’ll die quickly without backup. It would be impossible to succeed as a lone wolf, and don’t even think about Rambo-ing your way through. Teamwork is essential when playing as the Humans. Stasis and telekinesis return in the multiplayer and become extremely useful when the Necromorphs swarm your team. The brand new and extremely powerful gun is the Javelin- it fires a harpoon at your enemies causing them to be nailed to the wall or to explode into several icky pieces.
