Have you ever been down a small, dark hallway, then all of a sudden you see a Pregnant, 5 Slashers, 2 Exploders, and a Leaper and you are almost out of ammo? Then you just get goosebumps about how your going to kill it. It's happened to everyone, you just need to know how to kill them.
For the Pregnants, you need to aim for the arms, not the stomach! Destroy the arms, and if you can't, destroy the legs, then it will crawl towards you, so shoot off at least 1 arm. If you do shoot the stomach, Swarms will come after you.
If you see a bunch of Swarms, let them get onto you, then use the A button when you see it to rip them off of you. It's risky, but it's the only way, so use a health pack to heal yourself afterwards.
Slashers are the enemies with the giant blades sticking out of their wrists. They're the easiest enemy, but the most annoying one there is. You kill one, then when you put your weapon down and you turn around, another one is either running over to you, or chewing off your face. To kill these, aim for the arms. Destroy them, and it will come crashing down. If it's too close to you, shoot the legs off or use stasis. If you shoot of the legs, remember, it's not dead... Yet.
Exploders. Gosh, where do I begin? DON'T DESTROY THE YELLOW THING! They explode on contact, so stay clear of them, even if they are good runners. Try to shoot it's arm off, then kill it like a normal Slasher. Then, take the yellow thing with Kinesis and shoot it at another enemy if possible, and give them a piece of their own medicine!
Leapers are the worst! First, they have no legs, so you can't slow them down. Second, in Zero-G, they fly everywhere! Just remember to aim for the tail and arms. if you shoot the head, like other Necromorphs, it will take at least 5 Plasma Cutter shots to kill it, waisting precious ammo.
Lurkers. The ugly babies that have tentacles coming out of their backs that shoot rockets who also climb walls. These things aren't easy, so try to shoot for the tentacles when they come out of them. If this doesn't work, use kinesis and shoot the tentacles then.
Drag Tentacles. The giant tentacles that haunt your minds and pull you towards the giant holes in the wall. Get out your best gun (preferably Plasma Cutter) and shoot the giant yellow thing that looks like the thing on an Exploder. If you don't, and you end up crawling out of the hole once you reach the wall, it will come back out and kill you, so you have to do it again. Every time you see a giant hole in the wall,
