Achieve a perfect score in the Shooting Gallery

How to unlock the Crackshot achievement in Dead Space - Definitive Guide

You will come across the Shooting Gallery in level 9. Use the Plasma Cutter and have it on vertical firing mode. The goal here is to shoot all the red guys as fast as possible (if you miss a red guy, you lose) and without shooting a single blue guy. It takes a little bit of practice but it's pretty easy once you get the hang of it. You will get good prizes too, so it's worth doing for more than just the achievement.

Missable! This is one of the harder trophies in the game. The shooting gallery can be found early on in Chapter 9. To achieve a perfect score you must complete the fifth level in the minigame. Each level gets progressively harder, your goal is to shoot all of the red targets as they pop up without shooting the blue targets.

Shooting Gallery Tips & Notes:
  • Use the Plasma Cutter.
  • You have unlimited ammo whilst at the target range, so shoot away.
  • When a target pops up, move the camera in the direct of the target and then aim.
  • Find a comfortable shooting distance, further distances mean that you can pan the camera towards a target in less time. If you move to far back however, you will exit the minigame.
  • Standing at different angles to the range can make shooting certain targets easier but can also make some harder.
  • You can play the shooting gallery minigame an unlimited number of times, however once you've beaten the fifth level no more prizes are awarded and you no longer have unlimited ammo at the range.

During the ninth chapter, you will pass by a shooting gallery. Use the plasma cutter in horizontal shooting mode. Your task is to kill the red guys and not hit the blue guys, if you don’t hit at least one red guy or hit a blue guy, move back to the wall and start again, otherwise you’ll just waste time. Stand as far to the left as possible, don’t stand in the center , since targets that appear on the left are difficult to see due to the features of the camera. A total of 5 levels each give a reward, including a ruby ​​semiconductor and one node.

Knocked out this trophy the first time using a pumped up cutter. We turn the beam into a horizontal plane, aim at the level - well, ten centimeters below the navel and in the center (this way you will need to slightly shift the sight to the left or right). In short, you will have time to hit even falling targets. And the cutter's rate of fire will prevent you from foolishly hitting blue gwet targets.

After an hour of torment, the 153rd attempt, 2 broken joysticks, one offended cat, and I can’t even count how many wasted nerve cells, I finally shot everyone... I’ll say this - this is not a shooting gallery, this is a Dungeon!

In general, from personal experience I advise you:

  • if you decide to shoot with a Cutter, be sure to fully upgrade your Speed;
  • due to the “specific feature of the camera” you will definitely have difficulty seeing the left targets - to correct this small oversight, move to the right to the third track close to the wall. Due to the tightness, the camera will move just towards the weapon and your head, which previously occupied half the screen, will not be invisible. Also, due to the fact that you have moved, the angle will be cut and some targets will come closer, lining up almost on the same line, which allows you to aim at them faster;
  • if you miss or hit the blue one, in general, you screwed up, don’t leave, finish off this round - you’ll get better training, get better.
And note that it penetrates through, that is, it does not penetrate two targets with one shot.

I didn't use a cutter, but a pulse rifle.
