Collectables question!
So this game is kinda free roam where you can travel back to areas on the ship you have previously visited. Is it possible to gather all collectables near the end of the game or are some areas locked off after visiting them initially which have collectables in?

Yes, some ID tags are missable. But you can pick them up on your next playthrough. The vast majority can be collected during backtracking though.

Mission 16 is the point of no return.
This is where you have all the tools and can access every area of the station.

There will be an (maybe more) Alien though at this point, so watch your back.

Have you (or anybody that has made it this far) ever noticed that if you start backtracking after mission 16, you get some weird alien behaviour?

Like the alien has no sound. You see it come from vents but it doesn't make any sound. Silent footsteps too. Or you put the motion tracker up and you can see it running around the vents above you, but can't hear any sound.

I noticed a lot of buggyness with the alien when backtracking after mission 16.

Sounds interesting, but have not experienced this. Did you know that you can backtrack after starting mission 17 ? The elevator function remains until you take the upper transit, but then some strange things happen, environments like Seegson are partly changed to prior conditions, for example the fire on seegson first level will be suddenly distinguished and you will have a free look through the windows on seegson communications center again.
I've missed D.Turner ID tag and I'm already playing mine second time this,if I start all over again,will the rest of stuff I've found be kept ?
I am on M17 but couldn't go through on Seegson Communications to Internal Communication room,because the door is locked.If I restart from the begin,will I be able to find the last ID Tag,or will I miss everything ?

I am only answering this thread,since the author's collectible guide won't reply back,making a little bit confusing this to me.

I would suggest to continue, all collectibles will be kept and missing can be collected in a mission replay.

Thanks for a late respond,I simply did play M4 instead of playing from the begin and tada,achievement earned.
