Dead Rising thread

Is skateboarding a thing? I'm on my second playthrough, lvl 45 and I never ever seen a skateboard.

Yeah you can skateboard, check the sports shops

>Game crashes at courtyard again
Well shit, anyone else have a problem with this?

>Only have 3 hours to show Kent my erotica photo, defeat the Hatchet man, escort his 3 hostages to Al Fresca to save the Coward, head to Wonderland to save the two survivors hanging off the giant bear and get back to the safe room (while also having to feed and pick up that fat fuck Ronald).

I could do it if the AI wasn't a piece of shit that went out of its way to get grabbed by every fucking zombie in its path.

>Survivor is spinning in circles at the beginning after everyone else is at the shortcut

Yeah, using a guide and seperate playtrough is pretty much required to get all 50 survivors.

This, I don't know how mf'ers do a perfect playthrough where they get Ending A, save all survivors and kill all psychos

Whats the coziest store/spot to barricade and bunker down in and why is it Columbian Roastmasters?

>Infinite Orange Juice, the drink of kings
>Silly Pies
>Blender
>Secret Katana
>Plenty of chairs for barricading
>Good view of the first and second floor
>Infinite skateboards right across the hall

Paradise Plaza in general is the best.

Forgot image

By having the three speed upgrades. It makes a world of difference to have even a single speed upgrade, having all three lets you do everything in the game and have time to spare between each one.

I just did this part

>Kent takes pretty much no time at all, so you can just book it to the juice store show him the photo and leave
>Run to the north plaza and kill Keith quickly
>Leave his survivors for later
>Rescue the coward
>Get the hanging idiots along the way to the wonderland shortcut
>Save before going through the shortcut
>Kill the cultists, don't get hit by pocket sand (you get teleported to the cultists, so it's a good idea to run back to your survivors in the washroom and set a waypoint to make sure they stay there)
>Grab some extra orange juice for when Ronald starts getting pissy later
>Recruit Ronald and Jennifer
>Get mad XP for your 5 survivor train
>Complete the story cases
>Do all the 5PM scoops in the entrance plaza or go back to the north plaza and rescue Keith's survivors

>Leave his survivors for later

I didn't think of that.This will make it much easier. Thanks.

Everyone kept saying to grab the a couple uzi's for the beginning of the game. I grabbed the one in Paradise Plaza, went out to the convicts and kill them in 5 seconds, went to the clown and just instant killed him with the turret they dropped.

That chunk of the story alone took me maybe two minutes when usually It'd take me several tries and atleast half an hour back in the day.

I feel like learning weapon locations and just leveling up really makes a difference.

I actually completely forgot about them while planning my route to get Gordon / Ronald / hanging ones / Jennifer and just moved on right after killing Keith. It was only after while I was looking through the survivor list, saw them and thought "wait who the fuck are you" did I go back for them after I got the four survivors in the entrance plaza.

>one of the mannequin limbs is a boomerang
dunno why but i slightly kekked at this

who else /1billion pp/ club

For the photographs 10 psycho's trophy. Do i need to photographs their PP moment? Or will any photograph do?
Also does Carlito and Isabela count for this?

Any differences from the 360 version and this one?

alright how the fuck do i beat these prisoners cunt lads ?

doesn't help that im level 5 and they have machine gun and a fucking car ramming at me at full speed ....

Im at a lost here chaps

There's a blue ledge in paradise plaza you can jump onto from the halfway point on one of the stairs. The ledge is above Cam's Camera's and the maintenance exit to the air duct, if you jump off the stairs and climb on it and follow it around you'll find an Uzi.

Just wait till the prisoners crash and get headshots with the uzi, they'll die in no time.

There's another uzi? I thought you had to ride the roller coaster thing in Wonderland Plaza and jump off at the right time to get one.

>get a gun
>make them crash
>shoot them

Uzi or just avoid them until a higher level; hug the wall and you should be good. Also for all of you people new to the game this is very important (not really, but helpful I think)
>GRAB THE SHOTGUN AT THE BEGINNING MALL ATTACK
there's two dudes that go down right in the fountain thing in a huge crowd of crouched zombies. Usually the dude on the right (looking at front entrance). Grab that shit and save it for whenever you see fit. I usually use a couple shells on the clown and then the gun shop guy as you can get more shotguns after.

And there's one in alfresca plaza, in the fountain. Also another one in the food court, on the restaurant sign in the area you start during the Brad mission.

There's several uzis. The fountain in the al fresca outside plaza I believe its called has one. The one in the first plaza as that dude stated. The roller coaster one. There's more as well iirc but the fountain one and the ledge one are my go tos as they respawn

I had no time to do all of that, did kent's mission, saved the chick trapped by zombies, went to the saferoom and delivered her - got out again, met the cultists, then i rescued the fat fuck in the resturant and brought him to the saferoom and now these are my missions.

>saved the chick trapped by zombies

Is that the one in Paradise Plaza? If so you missed her sister who was in the toystore at the same time.

Seriously? Fuck.

Fuck, I just realized I never picked up the key to unlock the cage after defeating him. Can I still go back and get it or are they done for? (First time player here)

Approaching day 7 on my infinite mode run. Stacked with steaks and ojs, camping inside theater no 2 at Colby's. Getting there boyyyys

well ?

Yep. You're meant to save the first one and then go into the store to find her sister crying (thinking she had left her sister for dead). When she see's that she's OK she will come with you.

Faster loading times, 1080p and 60fps. They've left the retardo ai untouched.

I see. Oh well, survivors aren't that important other than their XP and i could just always replay the game. Also, any suggestions for what to do when dealing with Isabela on her bike? Quite fun to play dead rising again on PC. Think i'll replay DR2 after this, and then DR3.

Just take a photo of them, it doesn't matter if it's good or not.

You know Cletus doesn't set up in the gun store until the end of the first day right? First day it's all clear and you can stock up on everything.

Hop on a box and shoot her in the face.

Will there ever be mods for this game or is it going to be to difficult since it's an old 360 port?

Yeah but I hate wasting even a minute not rushing missions. Shame the gun store is so far, but I guess that's sort of the point. I WILL save all 50 people without a guide. On play through 10 or so by now (360 fag)

Get the convict gun and then go stand in the doorway of that sword shop (might be some other genre of shop I forget) lure her to you and just unload on her as she's barreling towards you and you should be able to do it in one or two tries. You might have to take a hit and or lure her away from the store and then b line it back so you have a decent amount of time to try and shoot her on her way back.

Good tip i suppose. While you're at spoonfeeding, where was the gunstore now? can't find it.

First time player here. I notice people talking about barricading. What game ode would you do that in? Def not 72 hour. Yall talking about the 7 day survivor thing, or...

>mfw killed Brock with only 2 blocks of health left
Goddamn the final psychopath bossfight could be tense as hell since there's no consumables or weapons so you have resort to your bare hands and kicks.

It isn't really useful, in infinity mode you could just climb to higher ground, it's mostly just for fun

The two survivors in the plaza also spawn before Kent I think, so if you you rescue them before doing the long chain events you should have enough time.

Check your map, it's the shop right above "NORTH PLAZA".

The ai is even more retarded than I remember, Burt went into a group of zombies alive, and he didn't come back out. That retard just refused to move no matter what I did.

Also I remember the convicts being a lot more threateneing, they got stuck on a tree after their cutscene and never moved from this lightpole on re-entry.

He goes down like a bitch if you double lariat spam

Literally 3 mini chainsaw swipes. Makes the game easy mode. I only ever use it on bosses like sniper carlito or crowds of cultists because it feels so cheap

It's in that same plaza, there's some little alley way almost towards the starts that leads back to the store. N127 on this map here. Happy hunting fellow Frank!

>Buy OTR after having only played DR1 10 years ago
>that opening cutscene
>"FRAAAAANK WEEEEEEST"
I love this already

Ahhh, okay thanks

I think it's probably QLOC changing the code up a bit so they accidentally made the AI much worse and idiotic.

I hope atleast someone makes a mod that fixes the AI or atleast tone the dumbassery down a bit.

I know what you mean. I can remember thinking "why are people complaining about the ai" when I was it playing on my 360 10 years ago. But this time those fuckers are all over the place, though I'm not playing much differently, using way points and commands etc

Hype as fuck to get into the remasters, but I'll probably just wait for a black friday or capcom sale where it'll be dirt cheap

Even though it's been almost a decade, I'm really not excited to get some of those trophies again

I think that this is one of few games with a perfect achievement list. Fun, challenging and a bit of grinding.

me too

forcing me to play the singleplayer in new ways is always good. mp cheevos suck

If you're going to have an achievement called "7-day survivor" in your game, you probably shouldn't have a game crashing bug that occurs halfway through. AND THEN KEEP THAT BUG IN TEN YEARS LATER.

Unlocked - 7 day survivor

Well ladies, that's it. Thanks for the great fun Frank and onward to Otr.

I would like a mod or an ini hack that allows windowed fullscreen and doesn't pause the game if I change active windows before I try this desu.

do the inmates still respawn or was that legit unintentional?

They still respawn.

And original outfit Frank in 1 is best outfit.

WHAT are we DOING here!?

They respawn every day but remain dead if you kill them for the remaining duration of that day.

The layout of 1's mall is just so good. Perfect balance of accessibility and scale.

FRrraaAAANK!!

I like to break the windows and barricade the library in entrance plaza

Food court is best hiding up on the roofs and rafters. No barricading required with zero zombie risk

WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE???

How to defeat the cletus guy?

I UNDERSTAND

Is the volume a bit too low for anyone else?

Playing the pc version

Post Franks?

Post Franks.

off the record is pretty great. I started replaying it after beating DR1 yesterday and it feels slightly slower, but that might be because it's not MT frameworks

it still crashes in food court on the 4th day?

i finished 7 day last night, and assumed it would be fixed. i nearly went in there and ruined it all. i'm not usually this lucky.

useful in survival mode, you get a bunch of food, barricade, and then just chill and eat until you have to go back out.

I ain't even fucking mad lads. This game is fun as fuck. I just decided to restart since I have a better grasp on the mechanics now, as well as the couple starting abilities.

...

A lot of people who've played this played it originally on the 360. I've replayed this game countless times, but I still distinctly remember my first time being scared shitless of going any to the food court through the park because of the PTSD music and Convicts.

Its stressful, definitely. But once you get past that shit, get a hold of the mechanics and what you should be doing, the game is a pure masterpiece. Enjoy user.

Just throwing this out there but I really like Frank as character, I wish more games did "your average joe" sorta spin.

also he's a photojournalist, so that's cool.

...

it allows borderless windowed, that doesn't pause

DR3 had you being just some mechanic

I hope you lads saved Janet Star

You know what's fucking stupid ? You can't even barricade shit in deadrising 3, fucking nick just tosses whatever he puts down behind him.

This literally just happened to me, except I accidentally smashed in the head of the girl you can carry with a sledgehammer.

>Just trying to secure these survivors, didn't want any bullshit
>Knew about the Guru Boyz
>Cutscene starts playing when I enter the park, start flipping shit

>Broke my chainsaw off on the driver

I wasn't anticipating this much stress.

Gold suit is baller

I've covered wars, you know.

...

>tfw I've been listening to this for the last three days nonstop when going out on my ipod.

It's too catchy.

The photojournalist part is so unique it really sells it for me
I love the news channel look of the hud and UI, really stands out

>Survivor gets caught on the overturned potted plant right by the maintenance doorway.

the most dangerous pot, rekker of lifes

>Pamela gets her ass eaten by zombies just when I was going to give her an OJ

Well fuck. At least you have a twin that's just as hot.

Huh, I always thought that Kent reminded me of someone.

Everything about this game is good.

Is saving people worth it? I don't want to spend the whole game escorting retards from one point of the map to the other. Right now I'm thinking about accepting the escort mission and killing the fucks off, is this a viable strategy?

>Put on literally any outfit that isn't the original
>Frank looks like he gains 500 pounds

Also the skateboard feels like shit in this game, how did they mess it up so badly when it feels so good in 1

Yeah, for the peepee.

Just getting them to join you gets you PP, if you REALLY can't be fucked then just blast them in the face

>first time playing Dead Rising
>spend time picking up everything in sight and using it to kill zombies
>pick up a few rocks in the outside area
>eventually stop fooling around and start to save survivors
>want to get the achievement where I save them all
>get a huge group of them and escort them through the outside area where the convicts spawn

>rock hits one survivor, causing their head to explode

I restarted after that.

They're the easiest way to level up and some provide things you couldn't get otherwise like the shortcut across the mall or keys for locked doors (more so in 2) but none of them are actually needed. Saving all 50 gives you something. A mall jacket I believe

omg beautiful. I didn't notice!

Same happened to me, how do you even deal with hordes that early?

no MT Framework :(

>escorting fuckhuge party back to safety

also, these guys are the coolest

Soccer balls. Not even a joke. Those things demolish hordes at least during daytime.

Does anyone have a game save for this? I just want to play infinity mode and I can't be fucked going through the story missions again.

I accidentally ran a slow crippled woman over with a lawnmower outside once trying to clear a horde in front of the door. MOVEBITCHGETOUTTHEWAY

>A new psychopath is born

Yeah, you get a shit tons of PP.

You can get 200,000+ PP just from the Jo scoop.

God fucking damn, those two.

It's nice with the PP from rescuing survivors however the extreme piss poor AI and controls make it so annoying that i don't really feel like doing it.

no problem m8 enjoy

Dead Rising A.I has some issues but the controls are perfect and if you think otherwise you are casual.

First time player here. Please fill me in on this bug. I'm going to go for the 7 day jaun and I don't want to fuck myself.

I did that as a kid during the original DR1 so it's played out for me

Now it's all about Slave

>vandalism
>in my store
you absolute madman

>Do not enter or leave food court from 4:05:00 to 4:23:59 or the game will freeze on loading screen.

The controls are alright. But the AI is fucking horrendous, taking forever, getting stuck, and so on. I spent a long time running with pic related all the way from here to the entrance to the warehouse, and then she got bitten by a zombie because she spent forever trying to run near me and i had to fight cultists. So im thinking i should kill her now

i'm at the 4 day mark in infinity mode and i want to go into the food court but scared shitless it'll crash
(i died of starvation midway through my run last night)

I did it guys, I fucking did it.

She is dead now. Your PP points are not worth it

where are your pants, son?

>Awww fuck, I had a fucking fruit roll-up in there and shit

Thank you. You have saved my sanity.

>are ya winning, son?

I forgot, did they ever say what was in Frank's case? I assume some clothes and camera batteries and stuff like that.

But we believe it's fixed. I am the user who got 7 day yesterday, was chatting with the other fellow user who was gonna check if the bug persists.

I might honestly just play it again today and check if the bug still exists for everyone sakes (including my poor pal who died of starvation).

So do you guys rescue all survivors you can or have you let some cases just pass?

>literally have to spend about 7 hours to figure out if a bug is fixed or not
god bless you

Pretty sure it's camera stuff, your battery gets recharged after the the heli sequence and he was dicking around with his case before he jumped off

>Goes to cover a big story over three days.
>Camera only holds 30 pictures.

Frank what are you doing.

Holy fuck this bug is still in the remaster?
Jesus

Read up a bit.

We actually don't know. Some of us are going to make an attempt to check but.. of course thats 8 hours of real life time just to check if a bug is in a game.

downloading now

i fuckin remember in Jan 2007 i bought a 360 to play dead rising and i mustve been like 14 at the time

im ready to to play a fun videogame again

OTR was fun. I just got S Ending and all Gold in the Sandbox mode. Quite honestly, though, it's much more fun playing with someone else. Co-Op is the main staple of this game, but I liked it regardless.

FUCK PLATFORMING IN THIS GAME THOUGH FUCK

Yeah, it hit me years back when I was going for the 7 day cheevo.
Kinda pissed.

>I wish more games did "your average joe" sorta spin.

Not anymore.

>never had an x360
>dead rising looks cool
>finally get the port
>buy it day one
>see people having troubles with the convicts all the time
>i casually wait for them to bump into tree and kill them with katana
I am a little dissapointed, what's the challenge everyone is talking about? The last boss guy on tank tho - i died to him about 4 times.

I think its more about luck, facing the convicts for the second time kept having them going in circles for some reason and couldnt get a shot on the bastards. But first time was really easy.

It's mostly just the catchy music and the fact that they constantly respawn. It's pretty well known that they're not that hard if you know what you're doing.

every fucking time

Also fucking Isabela on motorcycle bossfight, that should be more memed.

She's more annoying than the convicts, by far. She spawns at the end of the 6th day in Infinity Mode and I got cocky and almost died to her actually.

>playing DR2 OTR
>only have around 2 real time minutes to traverse from one edge of the map to the other to save the spic Ching Chong reporter
>begin to feel despair because I saved like a dumb jackass
>realize that there are skateboard items

>get to the mission on time

Anti-timer casuals will never know this joy.

Haven't even got to her yet. Im dreading it.

>OTR
>Zombrex

wtf I just bought OTR because I thought it was free from the zombrex meme that killed Dead Rising 2.

...

Well Frank needs it for himself
Yeah, fuck that bitch.

Nope. The only difference is that instead of trying to constantly get Zombrex for Chuck's daughter, you're constantly trying to get it for Frank himself.

Frank is infected, so he has to take it instead of Katey. But the game gives you Zombrex a lot, and there's tons that spawn around the map. And since Frank has to take it himself, you don't have to traverse back to the saferoom to give it to anyone (Katey) and can just inject yourself wherever you're at.

Trust me, It's not as annoying as DR2.

Grab as many guns as you can from the Huntin' Shack. As you exit Seon's Food 'N Stuff immediately to your left is a small set of boxes. Stand up there and shoot down at her, and you'll be fine.

Fuck that whole fight. I had this game on the 360 and don't remember her being that much of a pain in the ass at all. Isabela threw me for a loop

>Everyone wearing DLC clothes
>Not being generic CoD kiddie Frank

I bet you guys didn't do the main scoops during your zombie genocider run.

Gotcha, thanks user.

>I bet you guys didn't do the main scoops during your zombie genocider run.
Why bother?

>tfw accidentally shot the shotgun survivor while carrying isabella
I had to clear the zombies around him and hit him and he died. Fucking annoying

When I got the Mega Blaster on 360 I had a great time but now it just makes the game feel trivial to a point of not being fun. I'm leaving it behind from now on.

>This

I was the only person amongst my friends to do Saint, it was fun and a good reason for me to play.

Now every single little object and zombie is a godamn obstacle and it seems shotguns are dead weight on survivors which is a shame since the one in the entrance plaza on Gordons brothers is really nice to have since it used to let you carry 5 shotguns max with Kendals.

Dammit I want a torrent for that game without gfwl

No Capcom game released on PC uses GFWL anymore, bro.

I can't find a torrent without it

GFWL doesn't even exist any more so I don't know what the fuck he's talking about.

I think one of the Lost Planets still does.

I can't find a fucking torrent without it

Does reloading a save keep your past PP or do I have to start the whole game over? Getting tired of this intro

FRANK?!

FRAAAAAAAAANK!?

ARE YOU SERIOUS?!

WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE?

C'MON! C'MON! FOLLOW ME! C'MON!

You can buy a key for like a dollar or two, literally no excuse

PP at the time of that save

Looks like oddly 2 still uses it on Steam.

But yeah, the DR games don't. The Resident Evil games don't. etc

Deadrising 2 is $20 on g2a.

>otis calling as you are in a fight or escort survivors
SHUT THE FUCK UP. I CAN PRESS AND READ WHAT YOU'RE ABOUT TO SAY. YOU DON'T NEED TO CALL ME AGAIN AND TELL ME ITS RUDE TO CUT YOU OFF

if you direct them to the objective with a waypoint they'll handle themselves better.

Shit

The original post was referring to OTR

>Otis is watching you with the mall cameras
>He's actually just a huge dick and calls you at bad times on purpose

OTR is $2 what are you saying?

Your attack power goes up over levels too
Survivors id give them these.

Lead Pipe, Katana, 2x4, Uzi

Shotguns are really not worth it, too long to aim
and the ai has a tendency at least for me anyway, to stop and shoot everything within a mile of them and their waypoint with the shotgun.

CUT THAT OUT
And my personal favorite
uuhhahAAH

Honestly I can see that at the times he calls me...

kek

Just started Dead Rising. Why should I escort survivors?

It's the best way of getting PP and levelling up

You level up very fast, also achievements if you like.

PP

don't even try completing the story if you haven't leveled up, always do a PP run before doing story. doing bomb collector while under-leveled is the most frustrating shit.

Got it. Thanks.

>Mfw I did S rank on my first run back on Xbox 360

Playing it again on PC more easy if you done it before... Like miles easy but that's just me though.

Post favorite outfits lads

>he didn't do a perfect playthrough

>mfw unsheathing my katana against the spic faggot in his truck

Really? I feel the only bad part would be the tank fight at the end.

Whats the fastest way for PP on 72 hour mode? Just abandon story and do escorts/psychos?

Who else /neverrescueanyone/ here?

Pretty much, and in your downtime do shit like shooting the plates in the food court, running on the treadmills/breaking the sandbags in alfresca, etc.

I imagine it's either getting survivors or ignoring everything and running the tunnels with PP books. The former lets you learn the layout of the maps and how to manage your time more while the latter can get you the megabuster.

>Why should I escort survivors?

You shouldn't. What you should do is recruit them for a bit of free PP then just ignore them. A lot less stress that way.

farming raincoat cultists with triple buffed small chainsaw gives pretty good amounts of PP because they're fucking everywhere and respawn every time you walk away

>near survivor as they get their last sliver of life shaved off by a zombie
>have to watch survivor get eaten by a very avoidable zombie for 15 seconds
>mfw even in death these faggots are still wasting my god damn time

This flairs up my autism pretty good.

One of the best representations of a skateboard in a non-skating videogame. Around as good as Bully's. Why don't more games do cool shit like this and whats the best skateboard skin? Pink Lips is my personal favorite.

>49

It's actually not that bad, I did it about a month ago, the first day is a bit rough but once you get the minis it's fine, I ended the game at level 42.

I love this series. I just knocked out zombie genocider and I'm waiting around on the rooftop. I feel sorry for you guys on PC, I can just put my PS4 in rest mode when I want to take a break from my 7 day survivor run.

I honestly didn't hear this song much since I killed the convicts every opportunity I can, since those fucks can easily break up my 4+ survivor group. I just sent them in an empty corner with a couple guns while I kill the convicts in the middle of the park.

Or I just used the shortcut in wonderland plaza

Ok sounds good. So far since I've bought it I've:
>got the uzi in paradise plaza
>killed the convicts and took the turret
>Killed the clown with the turret
>Collected all magazines to buff chainsaw

Now I've just been speeding along the story and doing all the sidequests I can to level up, but I think once I hit level 20 I'm just going to defect the story and grind, then restart and unlock infinite mode.

Can I do all side quests and escort missions if I do just the first chunk of story?

>he used guns in Hitman

you can put your ps4 in rest mode while leaving a application open i never knew this

>I feel sorry for you guys on PC
It's called borderless window m8, if anything it's better.

>what is alt+tab

I triple buffed the chainsaw and feel like I can just grab a couple uzi's and I'm set. Might abandon chainsaw if it makes it too easy.

>a 10 year old game released on PC with PC controls and 60 fps was what was required for Cred Forums to have some vidya threads devoid of shitposting
It's pretty nice, there are so few games that makes stuff like this happen. Devs should learn something from the old games

is dead rising the ultimate "water cooler game"? you can talk for hours about made up speedruns with creative handicaps, psycho stories, best ways to get PP, best clothing combos, sharing stupid memes for shitposting etc. etc. why is this game's replay value like unlike any other on the market right now?

highest you can get on ending a... it gives you 51 after overtime.

There needs to be a mod that disables Franks fake light source at night. I want to just be in pitch black with those red eyes and use items to light my path.

YOU CAN?!?!

Yeah, it is. That's how it is for all dead rising games and i am only hoping what the leaker here have said about DR4 is true. That it is actually good. I think i'll enjoy it if i don't use that fancy techno suit.

because its an actual game

Mhm, the thing isn't that Cred Forums can't discuss games, it's just that there are so few good games to discuss.

...

So you're not a dumbass and have to play 72 hour mode again?

Dead Rising is one of those games that actually still feel like video games and it also gives you a lot of choice how you want to play the game.
For example DR4 looks like the developers are only focusing on the silly meme parts that were a small optional thing in the original game, even the game is advertised this way and they only showed the so random funni shit in it also with FRANK IS BACK which doesn't even look or sound like him.
Games were made to be fun but now they are made to pander to wider audiences and sell shit ton of copies.

Some online only games don't let you suspend the game, but most games can just be "turned off" when you use rest mode, and when you come back, it starts up exactly where you stopped. It's handy.

You can do other things, sure, but you have to leave your computer on. If you turn it off, you lose your run. I can take as long as a break as I want.

Muh Frank

Watch out, the console overheats and releases mustard gas when you do this.

>turning your pc off

Well to be honest the "silly" things is something a lot of posters here seem to do judging by their frank outfits, and the games have always had silly shit in them. We don't really know how DR4 will be yet, it seems to be a bit serious at the same time silly. I just hope it has psychopats and that some parts of the old mall is something you can visit.

I just liked the fact that almost instantly after the game got re-released, there were threads and everyone was shitting on DSP again, anons were already sharing their Frank's and stories, and some were already done with Overtime mode and posting their set up for 7 Day Survivor. You got nothing but time when doing that one so posting on Cred Forums about it is all you can really do, right now im on day 3 1/2, with plenty of food left

This. Too much effort. I just Winkey + L and let it sleep.

RIP Shinji, I'm sorry for giving Yuu that chainsaw.

Where you can find it? It would match golden glasses well.

Some people are saying they fixed it in the remaster.

>day 3 1/2, with plenty of food left

enjoy your comfy time

>get the skateboard mag
>get the sports mag
>get the skateboard
>do ollies and kickflips into and over zombies, railings etc

not that user
but if you had an ssd, it wouldn't really matter if it were asleep or off

Here's your (Yuu)

It's right across from roastmasters

So how long exactly does 7-day survivor take, assuming you're doing it successfully in just one run?

I'd like to do it, but I can't just be at the PC all day because of family.

WE DID IT REDDIT
Fuck I'm so tired. The initial death really took its toll on me but I got there.

So yeah no crashing. Just got my laser sword as well.

Kindell is a fuckhead
You're not gonna miss him

>I bet you guys didn't do the main scoops during your zombie genocider run.
>imFUCKINGplying

14 hours real time, assuming you don't pause and check in every 20 minutes or so when you have food stockpiled to avoid starving to death.

So am i ready soon for the "finding boombs" case? I hear there are some strategies to use.

dayum, they've fixed it. thanks a lot user, your effort will be remembered by future generations of dead rising players.

14 hours. 2 hours per day. With the right combination of magazines, food, and max health, you put Frank somewhere safe and only check every 20 minutes or so.

Add the blue baseball cap and the white and red sneakers and he looks like a dad

Guess I won't be 100%-ing the game then, at least for Genocider and 7-Day Suvivor. Thanks for the info.

Sweet, thanks for risking wasting 8 hours of your life for science, bro

Haha just did this one and Yuu died, Shinji survived. Struggled with them, but I love how you have to get the magazine to start their escort.

Who's done the Tour Guide or Pimp achievements? Can you post screencaps?

I envy anyone who can do those.

you'd have to anyways for Saint

I start to think I should just ignore the survivors. They are not only daft as fuck but also boring as shit and that shotgun asshole started spreading panic.

Food court glitch is supposed to happen at day 5

How hard is it to gather food? Can you just drop it, leave map and come back and its still there? No food respawns but weapons respawn?

When I last beat it, I forgot that Carlito would show up and I was taken completely off-guard. Thankfully I found an SMG underground and finished him off with a 2x4 while I scraped by with 1 hitpoint left.

I was shitting myself for the rest of the mission.

why is Frank so ripped?

>paying for censored shit

Any tips how to quickly level up?

RIP YEAH

I don't live in Germany

He propably lifts or trains sports user. You should try it too so maybe you won't be a permavirgin.

He's covered physical fitness, ya know.

What's censored?

Man, I'm so about to get DR1 and DR2 collection off g2p after pirating DR1.

Hold me

Just get books that boost PP for killing zombies/taking pictures/survivor actions.

You can get books for all these things in the entrance and paradise plazas. A 25% boost goes a long way, and can even be stacked with more books of the same kind.

...

Just beat overtime mode, what do I do now?

If you do a saint run, you are pretty much guaranteed to get tour guide at soem point.
Frank the pimp is different. it requires you kill certain survivors because otis will not call you with new ones if there are 8 active in the world.

Kill yourself.

Those animations traumatized me as a child, Especially the oneswhere their oesophagus gets torn out.

>dead rising is 10 years old

feels wierd man

Lmao nigga I'm not some kinda gay ass faggot who plays a zombie game to take pictures xD

But how do I play video games and watch anime then?

>My feet hurt
>This exosuit is too tight
>I miss Jessie
>Why didn't I bone Isabela when I had the chance

If anyone of you are attempting a saint run, remember that this is a 10 year old game and guides exist.
This is the one i used, both back in the day, and now since i forgot all the specifics.
gamefaqs.com/xbox360/928326-dead-rising/faqs/51889
Follow this to the letter, but remember if you are going for ending A, you can miss exactly one survivor, and still get the achievement AFTER you do overtime mode.

If going for ending B, you can miss 3.

Pretty sure if you pick it up and drop it and leave, it'll disappear. There's food laying around, but not enough to get you to 7 days by itself, survivors will spawn in certain areas at certain times and drop food when you kill them.

>letting ronald shiner join

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I haven't seen threads this chill since the dolphin netplay threads were popular

>watching anime past the age of 14

kill yourself

I just murder Aaron every single time.

He's not worth dealing with.

Is he actually useful if you give him a weapon?

I always let him tag along without one and he always died on me.

I was actually surprised he can randomly pull out a gun and shoot himself even if you didn't arm him.

Worst survivor candidates?

>That fat fuck who eats all the food in the safe room when he joins

GUESS WHO'S NEVER GETTING IN THE SAFE ROOM ON SUBSEQUENT PLAYTHROUGHS FAGGOT

No. He basically refuses to use it.
The best option is to waypoint your better survivors, keep an eye on him as he's going toward waypoint, and if he gets grabbed/starts crawling, kill all zombies aroudn him until he moves on.

>Is he actually useful if you give him a weapon?
No, god no.

He actually gets worse.

Is it Ronald?? Is that why all the food in the safe room disappeared? Does that food normally respawn?

Nigga drank your coffee creamer.

ronald, i kill him everytime

Going to just kill him since I'm not on my Saint playthrough this time, hope he likes the taste of a bullet.

The food despawning is coincidence; I think it goes away after Day 1.
Your reduced survivor count if you neglect to deal with his autism is not.

>Do not enter or leave food court from 4:05:00 to 4:23:59 or the game will freeze on loading screen.

I can go cap it if you really want though. Just give me a bit

it says on the wiki he used to be a wrestler (probably in HS or college) he's not really ripped but he's definitely going husky mode.

>accidentally put a dress on
>Frank makes that stripteaser move

I'm pretty sure food in the Security Room disappears after a day or so, whether or not fatfuck joins.

Also, anyone else find the KB/M input prompts tricky for the special moves? Always find myself swapping to my controller to pick bitches up or pull their heads off.

Best moves is still wall kick/lariat

Hmm

i wouldn't mind doing this during zombie outbreak, like who gives a shit.

gr8 frank

youtube.com/watch?v=bJ8NnHHDGYU

YES

From the new Game Informer article called "New Game, New Frank":

"Dead Rising 4 stars Frank West, but the longtime here is getting a new voice. With the fourth entry, Capcom Vancouver has decided to replace longtime actor TJ Rotolo. 'With Dead Rising 4, we wanted Frank to grow physically and mentally', says studio director Joe Nichols. 'sixteen years is a long time, and we also wanted to make sure that the chemistry and the voices of the characters were awesome. We do have a new voice for Frank.' 'TJ was really important at the beginning of the game,' adds executive producer Bryce Cochrane. "Dead Rising 1 was a Japanese take on American Society, which was awesome and great, and we needed to find how to keep that Frank West being true to the original character but also a little more grounded, a little more appropriate to North American audiences."

>yfw non-existent load times

The time limit isn't even that strict.

...

Did Frank always do that stop-and-breathe thing like he was really tired after getting his HP reduced? I don't remember it really remember it happening on the 360 version.

>With Dead Rising 4, we wanted Frank to grow physically and mentally
HAHAHALMAO

What they're basically saying is the old Frank was too "childish" and "unfit" for them

What the actual fuck.

If you take away, or odn't focus on the silly things the dead rising games are pretty serious and dark.

>a little more appropriate for american audiences
>tj is an american voice actor
fucking excuses

What did he mean by this?

>true to the original character but also a little more grounded

>FUCK YEAHH

>YOLO

>SELFIES

I don't think it's possible for me to hate this numale faggot anymore than I already do

I hope DR4 actually turns out good though, we haven't really seen anything from it other than gameplay.

that's his son, his son's wife, and his grandaughter

He and his husband were raising a nice family. Dead rising was very ahead of it's time!

>Frank
>grow up mentally
>DUDE TAKING SELFIES LMAO

if anything he went full retard I mean sure he had fun in DR1 too but you still could feel that's a mature guy, he covered wars you know

I think this is the most underappreciated aspect of the port. I know Its just because its a 10 year old game, but that almost seamless 2 second load screen keeps me playing. I quit GTA just because the loading hopping in and out of matches online. Too much time wasted, takes me 25 minutes to do a 8 minute race. I keep closing DR and relaunching at a whim because its so quick.

>DUDE TAKING SELFIES LMAO
That's actually a thing from OTR

I stopped rescuing survivors after that, to be fair I was like 10 at the time.

They wanted a more grounded main character.

In a game with mecha suits, a gun-toting animatronic bear, a wand in the shape of a traffic pole, and selfies, they replaced the somehwat only sane guy into a catchphrase spouting faggot.

>true to the original character but also a little more grounded

Are you fucking kidding me? Frank is literally the most grounded and relatable video game protagonist that has ever been, jesus christ I'm fucking boycotting Capcom right after i finish DR1 and OTR of course I'm not even fucking around this time.

There you go. Just in case I got the day wrong. It Doesn't crash when 5 is on the clock either.

reminder

is dr4 still going to have zombrex or did isabella make a cure after 3

Yeah there was definitely some wacky stupid shit in DROTR but in the end Frank was still Frank. Same voice actor, same look (but aged), and same motivations.

>not using all that time to just take some erotic pics and ignore everyone else
come on user ;)

Gameplay wise, there's no time limit, so it doesn't even matter.

Let's at least hope the game might turn out ok. we haven't seen annything from it so

>w-well his VA is gone, b-but maybe his snarky yet serious character is still intac-

youtube.com/watch?v=8t_cM287iIo

Fuck these guys seriously.

Handsome

Cuz he's got no time to wank.

This retard literally said nothing. He just vomited out words into a big shitty paragraph.

I've been trying to boycott Capcom for a while. And then I bought Dragon's Dogma, Dragon's Dogma DA, digital Ace Attorney, MvC3, UMC3, Dead Rising, Dead Rising 2, Dead Rising OTR, Dragon's Dogma DA again (PC), Dead Rising again (PC), etc.

Shit's hard man.

String beans can't cover wars

What's with the exosuit they have to show off in literally every trailer?

He looks like italian mobster here.

Why do Western devs have to ruin good games?

DMC, Dead Rising and so many other series ruined by these faggots.

no

This is what he should look like in dr4

Its a joke you sperg.

I assume these threads are mostly for discussing the HD remake since that just came out, but are any of the other games in the series worth playing?

>millenial
That's not even how the word is spelled you retarded child.

yes

spotted the millenial

Yup DR2, OTR and the DLC's for those games (Case 0, and Case west).

Don't bother with Dead rising 3, it's literal fucking vomit and a big shit on the series

1 > Off the Record > 2 > 3

3 isn't as bad as everyone says imo, it's just more mediocre than literal dog shit.

yes, 2 is good. In some ways better than the first. Although you wont hear that here. For whatever reason DR1 fans are militant about not liking anything about 2

dont bother playing 3

>yfw ISABELLA WAS THE VILLAIN ALL ALONG

Why such harsh opinion about DR3? What it did wrong?

he became a psycho because katey died not because he liked killing zombies

>OTR
>going for all Gold Sandbox medals
>that fucking platforming to the balloon
>that fucking platforming across the light fixtures
>No thanks, I'll stand...
>Stiff back

Some of those were fucking bullshit. I completed them all but dear lord they made them awful.

>kick a potted plant
>this happens

2 is an okay compromise between the original game's mechanics and some new conventions. Case Zero is an okay demo, but redundant, and Case West is only fun with a friend.

OTR reintroduces Frank and fixes some of the mechanics to play a bit smoothly (jump kick landing, changing clothes doesn't take 500 years). It also adds a Sandbox Mode.

The Wii port, Chop Till You Drop, is a weird Resident Evil 4 reskin. Play it if you're curious.

But where Dead Rising 2 fixed things for convenience, Dead Rising 3 added things to casualize the experience. Things like eating while moving, perk points, vehicles, combo weapons on the fly made it a walk in the park. It's an amusing diversion for the first hour, but then it becomes routine. Play on Nightmare Mode, default is a cakewalk.

that's the type of person he became after katey died, just some faggot who liked killing zombies a lot.

This commercial reminded me of the zombrex.com website.
>that feel when realizing that it's down

At least the wikia salvaged it.
dead-rising.wikia.com/wiki/Zombrex.com_website
I just love when games do these realistic and detailed campaigns that use in-game logic and even do a bit of foreshadowing.

u can take a picture of the vent at anytime before they tell you, so u can be ready and not ahve to run and get it

>trying to rescue the 4 survivors in the cinema with the cult
>they get stuck on zombies and spend forever coming to my location
sometimes this fucking shit game

Do you think DR could use some special zombie types? I'm surprised every boss is a human and there are no mutants.

>military jerkoffs line
This line sounds like it was ripped right out of a jonah hill/seth rogen trailer

I wonder why they let you save him in the Wii version.

Play the first game and then the second , then try playing the 3rd.

theres 5 in the cinema

In DR2 and OTR you have the Gas Zombies.

But the original? Human psychos were the only bosses needed.

I swear, survivors stop following me because the AI insists to path through a potted plant instead of around it.

They needed a RE4 merchant. Might as well make it the gun guy.

Psychopaths are way more interesting than mutants honestly.

There were in DR2/OTR and 3. They were more of a nuisance then a real game feature.

No worries though because according to reports psychopaths are being replaced by "Boss hordes" in Dead rising 4! Thanks Capcom Vancouver!

because hes not really a psychopath he was just defending his store
he gave that nigga warnings before blasting him away
hell no the special zombies in 2 are cancer

Honestly I like how it's just a basic zombie outbreak and the bosses are people who snapped. "YEAH WELL THIS IS A REALLY BIG/FAST/TELEPORTING ZOMBIE SO WATCH OUT" always felt cheesy to me.

I can't seem to get Power Lift to work.
It says press M1 and Space, but it ain't doin shit but makin' me jump or punch.

Had to sell the motion controls.

The zombie psychopaths were neat ideas though.

5 survivors, whatever.

Shame there weren't many of them.

I wrote DR2 off for good because games for windows live. Assumed it was too silly and not worth the trouble.

Finally got it, played through it and holy fuck. It was the second one but way better. Anyone who whines about zombrex is a baby. It made Cash a little more important, and was easy as fuck to manage. The whole cash system was a nice new feature, however having to buy survivor escorts was extremely annoying.

DR1 I think is just praised because it was just the perfect mix of cheese and horror. DR2 started the shift into cheese too far which snowballed into MECH SUITS AND ICE SWORDS DR4. However DR2 is still very close to perfect.

Also Willamette's Mall is cozy as fuck, but the AI is WAY FUCKING BETTER in DR2.

>Opening scene where zombies have surrounded a school bus

Fuck off, The special zombies in 2 and 3 were fucking awful.

Too unrealistic and bizarre for DR1 perfect balance of how grounded but silly everything is. DR2 did it and it wasn't fun.

The timer is a non-factor.
Combat is casualized. Dying will only happen if you stop giving a shit because combo weapons are available everywhere, food can be eaten on the fly, vehicles are readily available.
The story fucks up the orphans plot from the first game. Either that or Nick is a post op.
Katey turned into trash.
Chuck turned into a homo.
At least plot arc has no tension, in retrospect.
Psychopaths were reduced because muh vices.

So do you cucks still not know how to set waypoints?

I WON'T LET YOU TOUCH MY BOMBS

Why would you even need to?

I have a bit of a breather now that I did all that. All my current scoops are blue

Are you joking?

How does the save system work? One life no saving one chance? Restart from the beginning of the day you die on?

needs a bit more buttah

Isabella's change was weird too
Nick was just way too nice to everyone.
Illegals were stupid trash that you didn't have the option to kill

I did think the "Fuck everyone, I'm taking this plane and leaving" ending was pretty funny. They all call Nick an asshole and he watches Annie go back to fucking Red

no saving, if you die it's over, back to 0:00:00. 14 hours playtime to survive 7 days.

>Celldweller: The Soundtrack
>Good
Kill yourself.

Infinite Mode is you can play for as long as you want, but food doesn't respawn and your health slowly decreases. One chunk every 1 minute 40 seconds. By default, with all the books, there is about 5 days worth of food in the mall and an additional 4 days worth scattered among the Psychopaths and Survivors, everyone is hostile and they all spawn at different times in different places. You just gotta work your way around scavenging food and trying to survive for as long as possible, no saves, one session

>only song anyone can remember being gone guru so random xD
>good

That's depending on what theme you like more.

DR1's psycho themes were more on the "menacing" side. Sorta stalkerish. The different themes fit each character great. Steven and Adam were fucking crazy, so their themes matched. Meanwhile Carlito was only slightly crazy, so his theme was toned down.

I like Celldweller's soundtrack for DR2, but they all felt the same sometimes.

How do I save Paul?

When his crotch is on fire I stand a couple steps away from him and blast the extinguisher at him until its empty, but it doesn't work. Aiming just makes me throw it at him.

How the fuck is gone guru random?

It's magic.

>accidentally

use the extinguisher, but try looking down on him with the camera while using it, try to be right on him

I keep the vent and picture of Jessie watching over Brad locked.

I've never played Dead Rising but I've tried Dead Rising 2 and had my share of fun up to the point where I realized cases were time limited and that made me lose intrest because I couldn't goof around, explore and discover new stuff without losing bits of the story
Does Dead Rising 1 have the same problem?

Can you store food anywhere? They just despawn if you move them and drop them?

Does the mega man buster still respawn?

Greg is a pervert who crawls in the women's washroom vents on the regular.

It just works

Like standing on top/close as I can to him with the camera centered on him?

Does anyone know if the water gun or spitting works, to save me having to start again?

Yes there is a time limit but you can ignore it. What is with people and not just ignoring the timer

Food disappears, but the megabuster respawns.

yeah ya idiot

google this shit next time

>Hockey mask is just a generic one and not a Jason Voorhees replica

This bothers me more than it should

Yes.

Change your mindset from, "I have to clear the game and save everyone," and just fuck around and have fun. You don't have to clear the game in one go, use multiple playthroughs to fuck around. Once you get the hang of things, or enough levels, go back and play it proper.

walk up to him, as close as you can without being on fire yourself, and use the extinguisher pointed in his direction, you should see it falling on him and putting the fire out, if not, reposition

its not a problem but there are time limits

>hit level 14
>get speed increase
>feel like i actually move fast enough to get shit done now
>shinji dies so i reload my save just before i leveled
>hit level 14
>get a useless move instead of speed

that sounds awful and like something only an autist would do

fucking disgusting. one can hope that capcom vancouver burns to the ground over night by "accident".

u get boxer shorts and a rare cheevo that only autists can get

>Implying anyone who actually played the game could forget Fly Routine, Bored Again, Justified or Crazy Clown
Fuck off.

Kinda reminds me of original Homer Simpson and Nu-Homer.

>people still think when the timer runs out you lose the game and you can't play anymore

>Does Dead Rising 1 have the same problem?

Yes, but:

>re I realized cases were time limited and that made me lose intrest because I couldn't goof around, explore and discover new stuff without losing bits of the story

You're not supposed to complete the game on your first run. When I first played the game on 360, I goofed off and saved survivors until the helicopter arrived, then beat the story on a new playthrough with my newly gained levels.

After buying the game again on Steam, I actually honestly tried to do the story on my first run but fucked it up and would have been too weak for some parts anyway, so on the third day I restarted and finished the story completely.

Do the story, the sidequests, or goof off, you're not truly penalised for anything, you'll still be getting levels.

>frank is an action hero now
>a shitty one

Why

You got the shitty camera shake and everything.

10/10

>hurr da time limit iz bad because I can't 100% complete the game in 3 hours and ditch it to fuck xD

gaming was a mistake, people just want glorified movies where they can see everything the game has to offer the same day they bought it and ocasionally press a button

Why is it that, every time there's some decision to change a long-standing voice actor like this that doesn't involve death or the physical inability for said actor to reprise their role, the project's director ALWAYS gives some pseudo-intellectual excuse like "We want to keep the original idea but CHANGE IT so it's MORE SUITABLE" while using flowery language to describe their concept?

Do survivors only spawn if I get the call from Otis? I'm currently waiting on the A Promise to Isabella mission to start and I need to add Kimbell and those faggots in the gun shop to my notebook and since they all spawn at once, I need 4 survivor slots free.

ty

They're desperately trying to get the fanboys to shut up about it.

To add on to this, is it worth playing both DR2 and OTR? Are they different enough beyond the character change to make it worthwhile?

I don't remember any shirt like that, where was it?

If you have to get one, get OTR. It fixes some of the stuff in 2, touches up the visuals, adds a few things (combo weapons, an area, a few bosses), but it's non canon. Chuck plays differently, but you can always play co-op if you want to play as Chuck.

Survivors that don't have a scoop spawn at their scheduled time, like Kindell and the gun shop crew.

Just go check if they're up when they're supposed to be up. If not, either your timing is a little off or there's eight other survivors still active in the mall preventing them from spawning.

It's in the clothing store with the Mega Man shirt across from Columbian Roasties or w/e - I actually noticed this today but thought it may have always had a top on the model... interesting.

>The inherent design of the game requires time to be a resource that you must manage, forcing you to make decisions and developing the ability to perform better in all situations to take out missions quick, so that you can do more.

>10 years later
>"There's some sort of PROBLEM where I have to play the game's story, is this PROBLEM in DR1?"
>"DON'T WORRY PLAYERS, We've removed the time system ISSUE and have replaced it with silly mech suits"

>Have the mega buster
>Still use the torso for melting things anyway

Why is this thing so godly, it doesn't make sense

>tfw when save 44 survivors on my first playthrough in years

was just sort of an accident haha

>no one ever mentions how arbitrary jumpscares are a frequently recurring thing in OTR

Fuck you guys, I hate this shit.

Fuck. Saint run is still tedious as fuck since some survivors only appear after you progress the cases.

Protip, give the japs a gun, apparently both of them are crack shots. I was thinking of keeping them around but Shinji kept getting caught.

>Also I remember the convicts being a lot more threateneing, they got stuck on a tree after their cutscene and never moved from this lightpole on re-entry.
This happened in the original too. Sometimes they were a pain in the ass, other times they kept crashing into the same tree doing nothing.

>Managed to trap Adam in an infinite cycle of being knocked down with the torso.
Why the fuck is it so powerful?

>we wanted Frank to grow physically and mentally
But from the trailer it looks like he regressed. He looks way younger and spouts out memes. Even Chuck looks older than him.
I have a feeling they'll pull some bullshit excuse though

Like what?

Its so good. Kills the SF soldiers in 2 hits as well

I think he means the zombies that jump out of doors/closets/corners and initiate a grab.

Probably not the one at the end of Overtime.

shit game shit boy

>Level 8
>Like 6 of my level ups were new skill moves
I CAN'T HOLD ALL THESE FUCKING MAGAZINES

I thought you faggots were just joking about it, but holy shit this thing is almost as op as the small chainsaws.

God bless you

>tfw trying to escort the 5 cinema survivors
It's fucking impossible, they all get stuck on zombies and nobody follow me

I think you meant that some survivors are only recruitable if you progress the cases, like that woman who's bitten. In my attempt at disregarding the story, I had every single one spawn.

Yep, that's exactly what I mean.

It's not even that scary, but that fucking sting gives me a heart attack.

I just found that out yesterday after having beaten the game multiple times.
I'm always in a rush with usually like 4-5 survivors and just never took the time to look

I know people say that it makes them worse but spamming the follow button always seems to get them moving faster.

I am, but they are split up stuck on the goddamn zombies. I suppose i could really try shooting and shooting etc but fuck if it isnt annoying

North Plaza at night is a fucking nightmare to get through.

Also what's the best way to get Cletus's PP, fucker keeps gunning me down while I try to get it

you can probably get it by just using the door strat to kill him, he usually just gets bored if he can't actually hit you and takes a slug so you could just swooc right in and take a pic.

I forgot about that, the green smoke everywhere in 2, it looked fucking terrible.
