4 questions about the Dead Space story
Currently halfway through the trilogy and I'm kind of confused on the whole thing. If anyone who's played through the series could help me out it'd be much appreciated.
1. Where did the markers come from?
2. If markers infect dead tissue, where did the hive mind come from?
3. Why does Unitology want the markers so badly even if they know it kills everyone?
4. What do markers do, besides sending out signals and resurrection?

1. Humanity discovered the first marker hundreds of years ago on Earth, which was known as the black marker. The government fooled around with it, unleashed the necromorphs, and tried to wipe out the happenings. Altman, a scientist that worked on the project, and I believe the only survivor, tried to let the world know, and was assassinated. Unitology spawned from what he managed to get out to the world, and they misinterpreted his warnings. Red markers, [spoiler]and the gold giant one in Dead space 2[/spoiler] are the results of human engineering. The black marker gave instructions on how to build red markers. 2. The hive mind came from an outbreak on aegis 7 several hundred years ago, and was the result of a red marker. It was locked away in the planet and aegis 7 was red flagged as an off limits world. 3. They were stupid and misinterpreted altmans warnings. 4. Haven't gotten around to it yet, really should get dead space 3 at some point.
