Alien: Isolation | Nightmare Difficulty and Unpredictable Alien 

Exactly as the first movies. :P

so true u would expect somthing like apple to be in a huge space ship

Its called low- fi -scie -fi

And that dann computers are slow as fck.

@@Sleepy_Soldier Not if you want stuff to actually work.

Broken tracker and unpredictable alien mod is my favourite way to play. Increases the tension and the only way you know the alien is in the vents are the audio cues. The way the dot moves around while it's in the vents always takes me out of the game because it's so different to how it moves normally, it's all smooth and weird so it reminds me the alien isn't actually in the vents but is just despawned waiting to be spawned somewhere else.

That broken tracker killed me once, listened for any alien noise..none, open the tracker to check, stand up walk Alien right in my face. Just standing there. Damnit

More likely a psychopath

No map is way worse honestly

Lighting can make all the difference sometimes, props to the developers for adjusting for limiting hardware

Smart use of lighting and environment design.

It's also in my opinion the little effects like smoke and the sound of working computers/servers etc.

goes to red dead 2 for me but yes this is great

The sound design is insane IMO really immerses you

There's nothing more unpredictable than doing the most predictable thing. Nobody would suspect you would do that

@@21Cayque12 LoL simple minded persin would say otherwise

Nearly shit myself.

saruman

Lol

I love how he or she just tried to hit the alien with the fucking wrench😂

@@godzillaman6005 me too lmao

It's so fast I literally got jumpscared This game is amazing

The chair probably was impacted by sheer strength of his butt clenching muscles.

b r u h

Lmaoo

holy crap

Its like the T-rex I guess: "Dont... move... a muscle"

@@JukesMcGee Above all do not make a gesture ! His vision is based on movement... LMAOO !

@Tanner Goodman all these times when you play horror games even with jump scares they're still quite predictable because there's a script for spawns, event triggers, and basically patterns. NOW you're telling me the mod removes the pattern and let the AI, which sole purpose is to kill you, roams freely out of it's binary code.....I don't know if my heart is strong enough for this 😂

No motion tracker OR map?? Count me OUT Edit: I just noticed the immense lack of resources

@@SuperGoose42 Yeah no thanks. I couldn't even beat this game without having a heart attack on medium difficulty. I think I would literally suffer a heart attack and 2 strokes if I tried nightmare mode.

Adam Lindeman 😂 I think I started it on Hard and got about halfway through, then got hooked on Witcher 3

imagine if it was in vr

Darth Sidious It is one of the games that makes me the most nervous and that outlast did not succeed with me, the artificial intelligence of the alien is completely unpredictable and that is what gives real terror I love too much its atmosphere really leaves you that feeling of being alone without hope without nobody who can help you you are alone in a space station in ruins with an alien waiting for you

💀

I'm playing it right now for the first time! It looks fantastic.

-Finished-

Nightmare is really easy not hard lol

@@jaydentreloar853 Buckle up people, we got a bad ass in the thread!

This is also one of my crown achievements in gaming lol. I started my first and only playthrough on Nightmare when it first came out. It took me about 3 months to finish with breaks in between to regain my will and sanity! Haha

Haha glad you enjoy it. The moment at 40:55 was a really close call too.

😱😱😱😱😱 I’m actually on Sevastopol Station! Send help!

Once its onto you.... you will not outrun it, but if you get out of site and into a hiding place, you may have a chance.

Jason King lol I’ve never been that fortunate to be lucky enough to get away 😂

Same 😭

no

Absolute nightmare

I think the radar makes it even more stressfull.

Lots of brown pants moments

Fuck that😂😂😂 I barely finished the game how it is

I would probably not even be able to move, and hide in a locker or something. And when I get found, simply 💫pass out💫

Fuck that 🤣

Jordan Holseth I’m wearing Bluetooth headphones too! I’ll keep an eye out for that part and leave all the lights on...

@LordzBacon quite possibly 😂

she didn't make noise at all and the Alien doesn't look at her, wtf this mode the Alien has 360° vision 😖

yup. that caused a jump.

AverageBest You know the Xenomorph can smell right

That f**ker went Kaioken. Ungodly fast

Right? I bet its smarter than even you, aizen XD.

@@ryuudevie7 lol i agree! it makes zero noise while you dont see it.. and when it realise its in ur sight it start running at you xD

The working joes are a wonderful invention!

That is not true.

Not true

However it is a good Jurassic Park reference 😊

I rather be on their Nest than Medical Bay for some reason. 😨

The medbay is so hard lol Its the only part I that I dread it when I replay it.

I’m playing this right now for the first time and I’m split on it. There are many things I love, but there are also some aspects that are downright annoying. I really hate that it takes so long to do most things. For example; using a plasma torch to open something.

@@iCANT_BELIEVE_YOU_SAID_THAT The nest mission had me sleeping with the light on for a week.

@@LexingtonDeville984 I miss those days 🤣🤣🤣 It took me months to beat the game because I was too afraid to play it by myself with the lights off.

At least, it’s really scary and not just shocking. When was scar replaced with shock in horror games?

The Silent Hills 'P.T' demo is up there with it. Among all the crap in the last decade, damn have we had a few good gems.

Have you tried outlast?

@@plazas94 I haven't played it, but I've heard of it. It seems scary as well.

@@nielsmeijer6698 try that as well as amnesia and then your opinion will probably change.. ;)

That second time was the most painful one lol

That begs the question. Can the alien hear the tracker?

@@donavanfrea6768it can

The AI starts to "learn" the more you do stuff in the game. After escaping using lockers a few times (the harder the difficulty the fewer chances you get), it'll start looking at nearby lockers when investigating noise. My guess is that this guy used lockers before and the alien figured the shtick out. It's why the game encourages using all methods available to you instead of abusing certain methods of escape.

The Alien is also scripted to react in certain way if it comes within a certain radius around the locker you're hiding in. The AI then starts a "gamble" - there's a X % chance it'll check the locker, and there is Y % chance that it will not - the X and Y numbers being determined by other factors, for example (as stated in the comment above) how often player uses lockers to hide. That's why I'm much more willing to hide under desks or behind boxes than I am to hide in the locker... It should be your last resort in situations when there's truly nowhere to hide, as it is a literal gamble on your life.

@@Noctazar Exactly. And if you hide under desks or tables, at least you can move to the other side and escape. Or throw a flare to distract it. With a locker, it’s a complete dead end.

Either they didn't hit the right keys to trigger their hold breath sequence or they were too low in health. The alien will learn what you do, though, especially with lockers. Over time the alien will check it more and more. Each time on high difficulties you must hold your breath you start losing health. So if you stay in lockers too long eventually you'll be too low in health to hold your breath and the alien will get you.

Yes, throughout the ENTIRE series, the Xenomorph is portrayed as smart, unpredictable, strong, and adaptable. So it’s no surprise that they made the AI have memory to show that the Alien is hella smart

even with the flame thrower you still gotta think since it only deters the Xenomorph

@@CrasherX2000and towards the end it’ll expect it and the flamethrower will do very little. Also, at one point if u use flamethrower and guns on it too much it’ll start grabbing u from every vent u cross under

And the Switch too 😞

i feel like this is situational. i’ve had it where the alien wouldn’t do that and go into search mode again

I've consistently had the exact opposite experience. When the alien kills another human, I'm safe for at least a few seconds afterwards, and the alien might even go into a vent and go wildly away from me.

I play this with my dog nearby, and I have to be careful to not say oh shit or tense up, because she'll jump right on top of me, to protect me or see what's going on. She's a hoot.

@Kaguya Houraisan Look, I get that it’s just a video game. But the mechanics could’ve been way better. Having to be at an exact spot before I can even hit the prompt just drove me crazy. This is a type of game where a split second matters, because the creature is always on you. The creature and androids can attack you when you’re using a computer or trying to cut off a panel. Even those rewire systems took too long to boot up. Not good development.

It killed my grandfather

Bruh I felt I was a champion barely being able to finish on medium, idk how y’all do it lmao 😂

Maybe he tried to throw it quickly, but yeah, epic fail there

@@DialloMoore503 quicker than in the movie though! Some of the things you do are so noisy though. And if you do the Xbox version, if you’ve Connect, it hears if you make a noise in the room!

My guess is that player should have held the breath earlier

The AI/Xenomorph “learns” and can easily assume location of hiding if said player goes there frequently to avoid the alien, so the AI checked that spot knowing that it’s the most likely location of where the player is hiding

There would have been by now. This was just a one off then

The lights remain the same on all difficulty levels. The brightness just might be up on those games

siarnne This vid was my second run-through the game (technically third), but the first time I played on Nightmare and Unpredictable Alien. I never finished this playthrough, however. The playthrough before this was on Hard without the mod, and there was one before that on Normal a long time ago on a much worse computer that I had, which I never finished entirely. Memory is a bit fuzzy since this vid and my playthroughs have been a while.

i tried to play this game but literally stopped after 1 Hour cause i couldn’t take it i like Horror Games to watch but i’m to scared to play it myself
