Dead Rising Megathread v.2 - Everyone knows Slappy! - Games

Snip

I got a little problem. Otis refuses to call me for the cult scoop. I already encountered the fuckers in front of the cinema, but the next one doesn't trigger. Wiki says the scoop begins at 12am on day 3, but it's like 6am already and I'm still waiting. What do I do? Did I miss something?

Killing the convicts has to be the most satisfying feeling on earth god fuck those guys

"Now that I'm done running through the entire main case including Overtime for about the fifth time in my life I'm gonna do a playthrough foregoing the main scoop!" [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/5hZ8Fdp.jpg[/thumb] Love this game a little too much

[QUOTE=redBadger;51053642]Lost 4 fucking survivors due to retarded AI. Roland kept running into the damn wall. He was a lost cause. 3 survivors from the hatchet guy all died because they all kept panicking and not going where I told them to go. Ended up getting captured by the cultists and basically said fuck them. The AI isn't a feature. It's broken. Plain and simple. [editline]15th September 2016[/editline] Also the more I play this, the more I realize that there hasn't been a good interpretation of Frank SINCE DR1. OTR and 4 both seem like the devs think Frank is badass, witty, and spews puns and one-liners all day but he really isn't that. He's your everyday, kinda awkward dude. I dunno why they insist on being ~Frank~ so cool and edgy and badass when he isn't and never was.[/QUOTE] Frank genuinely strikes me as someone with aspergers. Swear to god [editline]16th September 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=Thechuz1337;51059671]One thing I just remembered loving is when it hits 10pm in the mall, and [b]'Thum'[/b] the lights go out and the jingles stop, all you can hear are the zombies.[/QUOTE] I was twelve when I played this game for the first time. Back when I was still naive and could be frightened easily. The first time the lights wentry out, I jumped so hard that it made me drop my controller. I spent the rest of the in game night hiding in the nick-nack store with the door shut, too afraid to leave.

[QUOTE=redBadger;51060145]Cletus was one of my favorite fights because its so high risk high reward[/QUOTE] Hm, I never had a problem with him because you can run straight to the gunstore at the start of the game and stock up on shotguns and sniper rifles. Usually I still have 2 full sniper rifles left after fighting carlito for the first time, so I just stand behind the card stand and shoot him in the face till he dies.

I like how a lot of achievements in the first dead rising require you to do more than just "complete x" or "collect x amount of thing". It actually makes me want to do achievements.

That's because Deadrising 1 came out when achievements were a new thing, so they really took advantage of that system and got creative.

I'd say the grindiest achievement is either zombie genocide or 7 day survivor. Currently working on the genocide achievement right now. Thank god for the maintenance tunnels

[QUOTE=mchapra;51059030]Is there an easy way to deal with the convicts early? I just have a bunch of pistols[/QUOTE] I mean, you can grab the SMG in the fountain of Al Fresca Plaza and a couple of pistols, and that's pretty much how I've done it.

[QUOTE=gk99;51062722]7 Day Survivor I hear is just spending 10 minutes grabbing food and then sitting somewhere safe making sure you don't starve.[/QUOTE] For 14 hours real time. :suicide:

[QUOTE=MightyLOLZOR;51062784]For 14 hours real time. :suicide:[/QUOTE] Yep. I'll probably set an alarm that goes off every time I get close to starvation and let it run on my PC while I play something else on my PS4, then pause the game while I sleep, and finish it the next day the same way.

Apparently OTR is completely broken on PS4. The game won't even start up, which is weird because I played it a few days ago. Hopefully it's fixed soon.

I'm thinking about getting this but everyone just keeps reminding me how trash the follower AI was when I express interest. do you think capcom or mods will fix it at some point?

[QUOTE=salty peanut v2;51063431]do you think capcom or mods will fix it at some point?[/QUOTE] No, but get it anyway. Even if survivors are totally inept, the game's fun and has plenty to offer otherwise. I mean hell, I've only gotten to a certain point, but there's only one survivor so far I [I]know[/I] you're forced to escort to finish the game, and she's one you have to carry on your back instead of dealing with her AI anyway. [editline]17th September 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=Rusty100;51063462]or even quicker and easier, bring the convicts hmg[/QUOTE] That's a solution for all bosses, doesn't mean you can use it for all of them when it only spawns three times and it doesn't last forever.

[QUOTE=MightyLOLZOR;51052673]Deadrising 1 isn't really that brutal, as long as you plan ahead and know how to cheese the boss fights. Escorting five survivors at once is a different story though.[/QUOTE] I usually do a farming run to just buff myself up and then do a proper story run the second time around.

[QUOTE=salty peanut v2;51063431]I'm thinking about getting this but everyone just keeps reminding me how trash the follower AI was when I express interest. do you think capcom or mods will fix it at some point?[/QUOTE] The bad AI is outweighed by the replayability of the game

It's so liberating when you're getting frustrated escorting survivors and you say "fuck it" and deliver some sick as fuck knee drops onto those worthless nerds and then go off to wander around in the food court again. :v:

As frustrated as I am with this game, it is super satisfying when you finally get things done, and even more satisfying when you replay the game and no longer have to give a fuck about anything.

Am I alone or does DR1s 360 facial models seem much less dated than DR2s in comparison? edit: survivors and PCs specifically, zombies look far better imo.

dr1 just looks a lot better than 2 in general

i think the first game being on the mt framework has something to do with it just looking more sharp than 2

It makes sense that DR1 looks better because it released much later on PC

Lip syncing in DR1 is waaaaaay worse though.

[QUOTE=RocketRacer;51068687]It makes sense that DR1 looks better because it released much later on PC[/QUOTE] but none of the games assets have been altered. it just runs at a higher res than xbox. which dr2 and 3 always did on pc [editline]18th September 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=simkas;51068691]Lip syncing in DR1 is waaaaaay worse though.[/QUOTE] barely
