Dead Space Achievement Guide - Z-Baller

[infiniteobscure]

Whats that suit u have?

[PSPfanboys]

@infiniteobscure itsa millitary suit

[GotenSSJ1]

Argh I hate this shitty little mini-game.

[Naaaijan]

I sucked at this "basket" game, haha shame on me! :) Thanks alot!

[KKEtokommasoulae]

2:00

"just pick up the balls and keep tossing them in"

thats what she said

[Chilly985]

this is chapter 6 (Greenhouse Effect). where can i find this room?

[zzy177]

its actually chapter 10

[EliteLugia]

this game is a wast of time.. just get it over with for the G

[outernettboy]

which chapter is this in?

[rocknie2]

@outernettboy ch.9 i believe

[rocknie2]

ch.9 i believe

[GravySan1]

I didn't realize that this room was the z ball room, I just ran like a little bitch when the super babies came after me.

[catman1233]

omg guys,you wont fucking believe this,i beat this shit and i thought i kept failing,so then i went to this video like a dumbass,just wasted my time,thought there was more than 6 levels LOL

[TheCrazierBW]

it was soooo fucking weird, i did my first play and beat 1, then my second play i was super lost looking for the platforms and ball but i somehow beat 2 AND 3...then i beat 4, then 5 but i only got 23 not the high score!? maybe because i was doing it on easy for the use only plasma cutter achievement but it was wierd, i never played lvl 6

[TheCrazierBW]

this part was hard for me, you make it seem easy...i was doing just that, i ignored the lighted platforms because it takes to long to identify them and jump...but i still couldn't get enough points damn shits

[BoneThugsRTheBest]

so z balls only for one person thats kinda dumb. theres a ship full of marines and this is only one player, i wonder how long the line to play gets

[pefjavier]

ok this mission is in chapter 6? where?

[xRunForTheHills]

Dragon Z-Ball.

[Bladiebladiebladibla]

It doesn't even spit out balls!! How am I supposed to score points if I have no balls to score with?!!!

[JimmythePenguin210]

After spending some time doing this I was taking it easy, but as soon as I opened the door this alien jumped out lol I like how the developers did that, so you can remember what you're playing lol

[Ydoc101lol]

This is fucking bullshit. You have to get lucky with the spawn of the platform just standing in one spot. I got all hoops in one second no mess ups or misses - still only got 30. It comes down to luck with the Random Number Generator (RNG)

[chickensesame]

Heh, I looked this up because I was on level six with a high score of 44 and I was afraid there was more stuff after the power node.

Jumping to the platforms isn't really that hard, and you're missing the point of the game just standing there catching and throwing it over and over. Oh well, I guess they didn't expect much from their target audience.

[toxicredx]

can t wait for z ball

[CptPakundo]

Z-Ball is so much fun, I forgot for a few minutes I'm in a ghost ship full of necromorphs...

[theunholybudders]

It's weird, even if I didn't beat the posted score on each round I still passed it and was rewarded.

[moneymonkey44]

dude howd u get that suit??

[vamp1drac0]

@moneymonkey44 Beat the game and pay 99,000

[birdmannan]

what chapter is it on?

[denvernug600]

@birdmannan Chapter 10. You can go there literally right away or wait until later. Once you get into the room with the store turn right and there is a door there that you can go through. Its that way.

[CptPakundo]

@denvernug600 It's the level 6 suit, the one the marines on the USM Valor have.

You need to finish a playthrough, then load that saved game again, and you play the campaign again on the same difficulty, with all your stuff from the previous playthrough.

What's called New Game Plus, or new game +, I dunno.

[smoking1212]

Why dont all the lockers open. I beat level 6.

[Lahnapihvi]

@smoking1212 Why doesn't every locker in the game open? There are many lockers that will never open in just about every chapter.

[Jelle987]

Jumping around getting nowhere, turns out it´s this simple. :P

[mikegta14]

Dude wtf, when I pick up the key or w/e and kill all enemies theres no basketball or the things dont even start up

[mikegta14]

Lol, Spend all that time for a little 5G

[amgoo12]

I came into that room and i was like, "how the fuck does this work?" I just forgot to press start.

I got the trophie in one go, Without having to do a level twice or more.

Played too much BFBC2 I guess.

[ZBlacktt]

hate when people say easy to get......sigh.

[amgoo12]

@ZBlacktt, It was easy to get.

[KeybladeMaster009]

@ZBlacktt maybe cuz it IS easy to get xD, got it in 1 go...

[ZBlacktt]

@KeybladeMaster009, awesome! I got it a month ago when I was here posting. ;)

[KeybladeMaster009]

@ZBlacktt Nice man, have you completed the game aswell? I did, a few hours back. ;)

[NakedFlyingBoy]

But what about the other lockers that you didn't unlock? Can you get them too??

[fretbet22]

so do u have to beat the scoreboards high score in order to get it... or do u just gotta go through all levels?

[jjdaman16]

@fretbet22 Scoreboard doesn't have a high score - that's your high score from your previous rounds being shown. You just have to get a certain amount of points to beat the levels

[tomhunt722]

you sound just like jason segel

[brightersupersilver]

i have a problem, i have the playstation 3 version of this game, and i activate the z ball game, and the ball does shoot out and the timer comes on, but those plates dont start to move and none of the baskets lights up. help!!!!!!

[tyota357]

@brightersupersilver one of the plateforms have a activation pad thing to start the z ball game

[ABCarmine]

@brightersupersilver after it says game over, you have to start it up again and then it says level 2 and then the same thing then start it up again then it says level 3 and so on and so on until you get the achievment/award

[ZBlacktt]

@brightersupersilver, not only that but the PS3 controller sucks when it comes to pin point aiming.... toggle and hope for the best... :(

[ZBlacktt]

Let me rephrase that, PS3 controllers really suck at pin point aiming...there better.

[SgtAndrewM]

i got to level 4, after that no ball fired out, but the timer still went down, after is lost the level i started it again and it didn't shoot the ball out again.

[DieTheDeath]

only 6 levels?! I have been trying to get to level 7! with a high score of 48 I thought I needed 50!

[RevPerdueJosh]

I just ran out of the court, completely forgetting that an unholy legion of aliens are tyring to kill me...that one just dropped from the ceiling...z ball takes your attention away

[HaveFallen]

What the hell? And I kept jumping around trying to go for multipliers...

[Jackc8201]

@MrBIOXFA - I think it's on chapter 10. One of the nav cards you need to get the shuttle working is located in the Z ball court, so you can't miss it.

[MrBIOXFA]

WHERE IS THIS PLACE PLZ I NEED HELP

[davitodude]

Wow dude. I didn't understand how to do this at all. I kept trying to smack the ball across the room. When that didn't work I started shooting it. Now I feel dumb.

[aylera]

what kind of suit is that? is there another suit after the level 5 suit or something?

[GSKonCrack]

@aylera

I'm wondering the same. I have the level 5 suit and it doesnt look like that

[MrHurzdischnurz]

@aylera its called the military suit. you get it after completing the game (at least on xbox 360). has even more suits, just google for pics.

[Jackc8201]

Thanks for the video - I couldn't figure out how to play that game. I was jumping from platform to platform and could barely find the ball LOL. I watched your video and got my trophy in about 10 minutes.

Thanks again!

[MrBIOXFA]

@Jackc8201 WHERE IS THIS PLACE?

[HUYI1]

easy? yeah i find street fighter 4 hardest mode fighting seth more easier!

[hybridwolf9]

i was here and im like oh wow this looks like a basketball court. and im like how do i play? oh well lets leave and next thing u kno its almost the only achievement i have left to do :/

[blewsrose]

Thanks 'sircuddles'!

After z-baller I'll have the platinum trophy (obviously, I'm playing on a ps3).

Sincerely,

Dead Space addict

[rocknie2]

@blewsrose sweet dude add me on ps3 "Rockniethe3rd" p.s. i have dead space 2 so we can play multiplayer

[GhostfaceAB]

Thank you, I wasn't sure how to get this achievement because the text log's writing was too small and I could figure out how to play!

[vivalatyler69]

what level suit do you have

[kvj1989]

After round 4 the balls dont come out anymore.

Anyone had that same problem?

[rich8642]

The ball is probably floating around the room, if there's a ball already out when the game ends, it wont shoot out another one.

[kvj1989]

I have the achievement now since i started the chapter over.

And this time the ball came out":)

[ManowarTrueMetal]

Wich chapter is this though? :D

[juacois]

chapter 10

[rich8642]

i just fucking spent like an hour trying to do level 6, and i finally fucking scored 44 exactly, like you did, and the lockers didnt even fucking unlock, WHAT THE FUCK!??!

[znaxapb]

im scored 17 and lockers have been unlocked and achievement too))

[d0mp1zzl3]

level 6 is the last lvl brah and sum of the lockers dont open up.. if u got a node as the last item this was it and u fuckin wasted a whole hour of your life.

[rich8642]

It's a game, it's a waste of time anyway.

[TheSamiryoussef]

@rich8642 tell it to someone who cares

[rich8642]

@TheSamiryoussef

I was. I was talking to the multiple people saying they wasted their time trying to finish this mini-game.

[destructionx23]

im in the room but there is no ball help

[HongsiquanWingDing]

It's in there, probably hiding behind something... this part of the game is the biggest waste of fucking time... I wasted 30 minutes trying to figure out to do and I had to watch this gay fucking video to figure it out... I guess that makes me a dumb fucking douchebag.

[n30l1nk]

It appears when you start the game by approaching the panel. And yeah, all you had to do in that room really was get the nav key.

[Victizzle17]

@HongsiquanWingDing dude. dont worry. you not the only one. i wasted like a week trying to figure it out.

[ZorlonDemincaus]

@Victizzle17 I dident play this on my first time through the game, playing the game for the 3rd time on Impossible diff. and by the time you get here you are so hungry for ammo I had to do it lol, annoyed the crap out of me, mainly because I spent 30 + mins trying to make those last three lockers open....which never open apparently (sigh)

[amgoo12]

@HongsiquanWingDing, This was the easiest thing in the game.

[blackdirtstain]

@HongsiquanWingDing Haha, I think everyone whose ever tried playing Z-ball (or whatever it's called) went through the same thing.

I'm a dumb-fucking-douchebag too XD

[AWWWWTF]

step on the first wooden platform next to the door and activate it. If thats not the problem, sorry idk.

[LoadedRobot]

Ok. I got up to 48 points on this Z-ball game, and no achievement. Help!

[MrDono14]

i never even noticed that lol

[msane4XX]

You know what's gay,

When I beat it on Medium, I unlocked Impossbile mode. I got a cleared round save spot, but didn't overwrtie it.

The next day, I come to see that the Impossible mode isn't there anymore, it's lame.

[amazingdany]

On my first play,I thought it went until level 9... I only knew after finishing the game and checking the spoilers and cheats that it stopped at level 6, the remaining lockers drove me crazy EVEN after getting the achievement. I was like "oh".

[DarkNessBear]

Achievements? Don't you mean trophies? =P

[jamiepoultonadult]

only for ps3 chinamen

[katyyshak101]

this is 360 faggot

not no gay ps3

[brightersupersilver]

@katyyshak101



[Mazzerinn]

not trophies, theyre called achievements..

[dantemail123456789]

no stupid,xbox=Achievement ps3=trophies

[ps3gonnaownwiiinsale]

wat chapter is this basketball on like chapter 10 chapter 11 chapter 6 i wanna find it

[cuilo16]

It's on chapter 10.

[PlantyC]

does this mini game come on the PC version?

[19nikola91]

yes

[Cfreezin]

Yes it does, but im confused. My game looked nothing like this guys. All the rings were constantly lit up, and it never gave me any notification if i beat a level. Maybe it was because I was on level one still. Iunno. Opened one locker.

[sbzvln]

same but in level 6 WTF

[cranyonsky]

this thing bugged in my playthrough, when i got to lvl 3 the ball wouldnt shoot out anymore. was pissed but oh well

[Wardx86]

oh nvm its in the lockers :)

[Wardx86]

how do u get the tank suit and after u complete 1 round where is your award..

[STALKERX9]

...meh... since this game was not like the other with the aiming, where when you pass the last level, it will restart to level 1, then you know you have finished it all.

I just spent quite a time trying to beat level 6 (useless) (futile) waste of time.... stupid piece of crap...

Only after this video i know.... and by the way, i have it on PC, so dont get it wrong, and make fun of me, cause there is no achievements on the PC, so i could not know.

[Arcon1337]

thousands of people die on a ship and turn into zombies. your pretty much alone with a few guns on you. You've got no way off the ship and your pretty much screwed.

I think it's time for Z-ball!

[ericjbruce13]

hahaha very funny

[tommymcdee]

just to make matters worse...there's no guns, just maxed-out tools...time for ultra z-ball!

[M1A8R2C4U4S]

@Arcon1337 LOL

[gdhillon10611]

what ch is this?

[EasyAl88]

Chapter 10. :)

[MEOWCI]

is z baller tis chap 10 or 6????

[41stHazmatTroop]

excuse me, WTF is this z ball? im sorry im new to this game and wanna know wut this thing is? can anybody pls reply

[chillininrosepark]

How did you get that suit? It's sick!!

[rotinaj22]

i believe thats the exclusive 360 one like the obsidian suit is the ps3 exclusive i think not sure if thats the suit for ps3 only

[FinalPictures]

Yea, you are right, obsidian suite is PS3 only. I downloaded it when it was free :)

[Fuuin]

Actually, that's the "Military Suit" that you get after beating the game once. It's a level 6 suit and costs a whooping 99,000 credits in the store.

[FinalPictures]

So, i can get that suit on PS3 too? I mean that suit which is on this video?

[Fuuin]

I've only played the 360 version, but I don't see why it would be different for the PS3, so yeah, you should!

[FinalPictures]

Okey, thanks for the information :)

[Fuuin]

You're welcome. :)

[jot0ub]

Do i need a Schemtic or something to buy it?

[Fuuin]

Nope, it'll appear in the shop after you've finished the game. =) Although, you need to play the same file again, so you can't start a new game on a new difficulty and still have it.

[jot0ub]

ok, ty :D

[STALKERX9]

Well, i just dont get why was that.....

I dont play a game first time on the hardest dificulty, but i do on the second time, and i don´t get why do they give such armors, when i can´t use them on the hardest dificultys (the logical way in my opinion).

Now i just have to enjoy them on easy, wich is pretty much boring, since the game on easy level with low armors is already a walk in the park.

[Fuuin]

Indeed.. but there is a glitch to allow you to use the Military Suit straight into a new game on a different difficulty. ;)

The DLC suits, however, you can buy on any difficulty for 0 credits.

[OMGDUDEWTH]

im sure u no dis but the lvl 6 suit has only 10% armor and some of the downloads are only lvl 5 IIRC and they have ALOT more armor(tank suit any1?)

[Fuuin]

Nay. The Military Suit has 30% armor rating, giving the second best armor rating for free. (The Astronaut suit is tied with it with 30% AR as well.) The Tank suit has 60% armor rating, however, and is the best.

Chances are you thought of the "Elite" armor, which only has 10% AR, though it is a level 5 suit.

[chissaKkissaB]

nah ull get it if u win trough the game:D lv 6 suit

[homenbode]

fags, I got lv 6 realy easy, thats why I´m here reading this lot of shit, I wanna know if have any level after 6!? it looks is only 6 levels

[DRxSqueakin]

this achievment is supid...i did even have to win the last 4 rounds....it might be because i got 37 points on level 2 but still.

[tomtom133]

for sum reason all the baskets light up so it aint workin for me

[vincentchps3]

what chapter is this?

[berylman]

This helped. I was wasting time jumping around trying to get a multiplier and failing when I could have just stayed back for fast single shots.

[Dragonblood09]

lol how to shoot the ball whet a dummy lol

[punk0poser]

are you retarded, you use kinesis

[XengodX]

how do you shoot the ball?? i don't know how you push an object like the basketball, so i ahve to use my gun and that still doesn't work.

[homelessbadger]

one you have hold of it with kinesis press the fire button

[austingotcheezits]

scratch that um the ball got stuck never mind

[austingotcheezits]

can someone tell me how to get past lvl 2 on the z ball minigame its so confusing

[st3v3yb01]

its easy ehn the ball shoots outta the hoop thing u grab it & fire it back in & the thing is i just got the achievment nt 2 mins after i posted this comment but my high score was 29 & on lvl 6 i got 24 7 got the achievment =)

[terrorofgreatness]

how did i miss this?

[ZZBratti]

yes beat it

thanks!

[InBloom10]

this is without a doubt the worst minigame ive ever played.

[N0p3]

Really this was a pointless achievement. It wasn't difficult, just a little time consuming and boring D:

[sonicsheshomaru]

when u upgrade ur kenisis mod it is really faster.

[CandyHam]

Thanks sircuddles, I had no idea how to play this mini-game. It wasn't explained very well in the text log Isaac can pick up.

[SupaPoopaScoopa]

What does it been when boards glow red instead of white?

[CandyHam]

doesnt that mean you are standing on it?

[SupaPoopaScoopa]

I worked it out. You don't score any points if you shoot from the glowing red boards.

I couldn't get a decent score from just standing and shooting, only about 24-26.

My highiest score was 49.. and I still didn't say I completed lvl6 what up with that!!!

Whats going on, no way it's higher than that?

[Wazyyy]

It won't say that you completed lvl6, When you get 6 items you know that you beat lv6

[Doomstar16]

Thanks for the video! I didn't know how to do it. Though I wouldn't be on youtube if I did. XD

[StzaCrizzack]

holy shit dude nice armor, i'm only like lvl 4 armor

[SupaPoopaScoopa]

Ye you only get lvl6 armour after you complete the game and start playing again.

[danielaung691]

hey where do u find the zballer arena, im on the USG Valor at the moment. i did the shooting range challenge but not the zball yet cos i cant find it

[Vinny6V123456]

You can find it right after the USG Valor!

You need to get there because there is an item you need for the storyline.

You won´t miss it!

[superjags99]

great guide

[anshumang1]

thanks for the help.

[tigersharkmonkey]

what suit are you using?

[4GDragon]

LvL 6 armor.

[iSoLo360]

Good video and commentary. Great guide.

5/5.
