History Fridge / DeadSpace3

** Somewhat {{justified}} in that, before leaving, a character mentions that the repairs have luckily matched up with their brief flight window. Considering the amount of damage and deaths they suffer by landing during the most ideal time window, looking for suits would have meant certain death.

*** [[spoiler: There is no one to defend the innocent civilians on New Horizons Lunar Colony too. Danik and the Unitologists slaughtered all of the military and security forces and the very first necromorphs you see in the game they are likely what starts the outbreak on New Lunar Horizon Colony. There is nobody that can save the people on New Lunar here other than maybe people on Earth sending rescue ships who likely got attacked by the Brother Moons not long after. There is no winning for humanity against the necromorphs.]]

** Made even worse later on in a Video Log that clearly displays that a Feeder's necromorph transformation is a mental one (The Feeders heard in the background of that log can still talk and speak with cannibal intentions), not a physical one and in another Video log the same soldier mentions that some of feeders attacking one of the bases were his former colleagues and that they showed signs of recognition upon seeing him. '''The Feeders regonized their colleague and attacked him with the sole intent to eat him alive alongside other necromorphs that likely would tear him apart.''' They are truly driven mad with hunger...

** Another offender is the impalement tutorial video Isaac sends his mates at some point in the story; the one he found on Titan Station in ''DS 2''. While it's certainly a good idea and quite nice of him, it's also completely useless since none of the others appear to even have Kinesis modules (otherwise they could've saved Buckell from freezing to death, as mentioned above).

** SpaceDoesNotWorkThatWay. Even in deep space, where the temperature is in fact very low, it's still not "cold" in the usual sense — you won't lose heat very quickly, because vacuum is a very good insulator, and even if the suits were insulated against low space temperature, it doesn't change the fact that we're talking two totally different environments and two totally different suits (i.e. one will prioritize oxygen insulation and the other heat insulation).

* During the Nexus boss fight, [[spoiler: you are SwallowedWhole, and enter what appears to be a digestive system. No other have needed those, so why does this one. However, it's a case of SquareCubeLaw ''and'' {{foreshadowing}}. Smaller human-sized Necromorphs can get away with having no dedicated organ systems, while city-sized ones like Nexuses need them to survive, like how cutting a simple starfish's arm off will be an impairment while doing the same to a human will kill them. When you kill the Moon, you do so by literally ripping its organs out in its "head" region, so if much smaller ones need organs to live, of course a moon-sized one needs them. Hence, the thing is probably, actually dead.]]

* Why does everyone immediately assume "Turn it off" is instructions leading to a good thing? It was written in Marker Script by an admiral who lost her mind to the Marker. EVERYTIME IN THIS SERIES when there are hallucinations telling you to do stuff it is because it wants bad things to happen.I understand in the first game, Issac was already not in his right mind and did not yet understand the nature of the marker. Even in the second it is not clear till the climax that the image of Nicole is not just his deep seated feelings of guilt, HOWEVER after that he should realize any time someone affected by Marker madness you should NEVER do what they say, cause the last time he listened he got a fricken needle in his eye for no good reason.

** Alternatively they might have planned to make it down there with the ship in one piece, as having it break apart at any point would have been instant death. They're lucky they survived as far as they can, as the stuff they suffered has caused terrestrial jets to kill all occupants onboard, and they're coming in from orbit. They probably wanted to bunker down in the ship (which clearly has full life support and atmospheric control) while Isaac and Carver went out looking for suitable supplies. They just never expected that they would survive, but without an intact ship.

** It's explicitly stated throughout the franchise that humanity doesn't have enough resources to go around anymore. The somatic gel is a chemical that would be easy to mass-produce, but tungsten is a natural material, so it's probably really hard to get any large amount of it.
