How to Get Through the Emergency Shutter in Dead Space 2 (Stasis)
Question: how do you get through the emergency shutter in Dead Space 2? The door closes so fast that you can’t run through it.
Answer: slow the door down with stasis. For those playing Dead Space for the first time, here’s what that is.
What stasis is
The stasis module is one of the game’s key features: it temporarily slows down an object or an enemy. It’s used on fast machinery, doors and dangerous necromorphs.
How to get through
- Enter aiming mode: hold the right mouse button (or press Caps Lock).
- Aim at the opening door and press C to fire stasis.
- The door will close slowly — just run through.
If you run out of stasis, refill it at stasis recharge stations or with stasis packs.
The keys are the PC defaults; if you’ve remapped them, check the controls settings.
