Dead Rising

Favorite game?
Best weapon combos?
Which is better overall, Dead Rising 2 or OTR?

DR general thread

dead rising 1 is too good for this earth

The only thing I didn't like about it is that the time limit feels slightly constrictive. I wanted to save people and fuck around but I found myself always hauling fucking ass trying to get to all of the case file missions because time flew by as fast as a nigger father after impregnation.

Anyone here play Dead Rising 4?
Wanna co-op and help me fight off this zombie horde?

...

WEEEELLLLLLLLL HE AIN'T MY BOY BUT THE BROTHER IS HEAVY

GAVE AWAY MY POSSESSIONS AND MOVED INTO A CHEVVY

The only thing I absolutely fucking despised in DR 1. The infinitely respawning convicts can eat a bag of shit.

VAN MAN THATS THE MASTER PLAN

I liked it personally. It gave a sense of urgency, where as if there was no time limit it'd literally turn into every other sandbox where you dick around for an hour then quit because you're bored.

This was bullshit tho.

I COVERED WARS YOU KNOW
lol, Frank was such a funny guy

...

When you have played the game as much as I have, you can do every case, save every survivor and fight all the psychos and have time to spare. If anything its too generous, as there are times when I have nothing to do but wait.

Must be fun being level 50 chad. It fucking sucks being the level 7 virgin who can barely save two survivors per day at most and only kill the unavoidable psychopaths

THIS faggot was annoying as hell but his opening cutscene was fucking fantastic and just as memorable as "I covered wars you know".

The virgin Chuck vs. the Chad Frank

That's the point isn't it? You don't need to do everything on the first playthrough just try and last as long as possible and just do a new run if you screw up.

It's not like Dead Rising is a particularly long game either.

user, I can go from 1 to 50 and still do those things. I've just played the game to a silly degree so know what to do, when to do it, how to do it.

Does anyone remember how cultists would kidnap you and take you to a tower or something in the courtyard? Am I the only one who was reminded of the courtyard clocktown in silent hill from that?

STOOOOOOOORE

Yes, they intentionally allow you save your character and start again with better abilities.


It was the stock room of the cinema, which opens up to the park with the clock tower.

...

Does OTR play the exact same as DR2, but with a Frank skin slapped on?


Its not infinite, they respawn once a day. Other than it feeling off that the same characters came back after being killed I thought it was fun.

OTR has new special costumes, a new area(Uranus Zone), Sandbox Mode(Single-Player and Co-Op), new psychopaths, new survivors, and new combo weapons with a alternate, non-canonical story-line.

It plays the same, but with more features. It's the superior version of DR2.

Trips confirm. Too bad it's non-canon/Capcom won't expand upon the new alternate Frank universe.

I wish the Dead Rising 1 HD remaster got DR2's movement while aiming and some sort of weapon combo system. And better god damn AI. I can only dream.

Before shit is talked, I got the Be Sword, Mega Blaster, Mega Man armor and the god damn boxers so it isn't like I didn't play that game into the ground, still my all time favorite.

I've said before DR1 is one of those I don't think I could change at all. You make the aiming easier and more fluid, its more fun to play of course, but the tension and difficulty goes. As does the slight immersion of playing as Frank, just a guy. Weapon combos would be fine I guess though they would never do some work to include it in an old game. The AI is similar to the aiming. Making it more fun would be nice, but then goes all the tension with survivors. Having to babysit them is stupid, but allows a degree of connection to the survivors (even if for most its "move you fucking retard!" type of connection) and doesn't mean you can just run to the door and wait for the survivors plow through zombies.

==I RAPED WHORES YOU KNOW=

I've been searching for the anti-bully comic of that part for years and still haven't found it.

The survivor AI in the original is predictable and challenging. What they did to it in the sequel took all the fun out of escorting them. What would "better" AI look like and how would it add to the gameplay?
Combo weapons in DR2 are far too powerful and over the top. The availability of strong weapons is already far too high in the original, but perhaps you also want the damage of regular weapons lowered like in DR2 so that you are pushed to use the shitty combo weapons?

Combo weapons are pretty far from the best addition in Dead Rising and really only served to pave the way for the bullshit in DR3 and 4.

That's not something that you'd want to add back into Dead Rising 1 without ruining the balance in game. If anything were to be changed I'd make using the special moves less weird to execute and add more of them.

Seriously how why did they move into the combo weapon direction when the special moves were always really neat tools that were all fun to use, if not a bit weird to execute reliably

Combo weapons would have been great for boss battles. Fuck the gun store owner. If you wasted the convict's turret gun on anything else and the respawn was temporarily timed out, have fun wasting time sub level 30 or without beam sword/mega buster.

m8 you can grab a shotgun right at the start, then an SMG and maybe a pistol for backup and go right to Cletus and wreck him. Open the doors, stand at the edge and cheese him by shooting and barely if ever getting hit.

Also please admit the ai behavior was shit. They had a ton of path finding issues and idiotic "stop, emote, lose Frank" animations. And they ran dick-first into Cultists, getting Insta-Killed 9/10 unless you told them to stay in the restrooms.

Nope. It is shit if you give them weapons, but other than that I have no problems with it. It's easy to learn what obstacles they will have problems with and you can interrupt whatever they are doing with the call out button. I think it works great, and is a fun challenge.

Liked the first, being a camera perv.

One thing that could be upgraded would be to make it easier to place waypoints, perhaps like previously suggested by making it so that you can move while aiming. I don't think that would lower the difficulty a whole lot, the main use of the guns is shooting them as you are running at full speed to clear a path, and to tap while standing still to abuse the auto-aim, making it so that you can move around just a little while aiming wouldn't change much other than make it a more fluid and fun experience.

There is room for improvement on the gameplay of the bosses overall. The cletus fight is just sort of ass. Combo weapons is not the answer.

Holla Forums shit the bed again? Chodemonkey needs to fix his shit.

...

Dead Rising 4 was the best game in the series, you permavirgins are just too blinded by your nostalgia goggles.

Cool bait faggot. If you actually aren't baiting and you're actually fucking serious, then I will tell you why your taste in vidya is shit.

This thread again? Why are you shilling this game so hard, OP?

Even has the same shitty lel so random gmod xd!!! shit. Fuck off.

I'm not the same OP as before, faggot. I just happened to be playing the fuck out of DR2 OTR and made a thread. Don't be so buttblasted. :^)

Does UMvC3 count? Never even played the DR games but seeing Frank played in high level made me pick him up and he rocks shit.

So much lost fucking potential. I still love OTR but god damn it, so much more could have been done.

I was wondering if they could have brought his wife as a figment of his imagination telling him to kill his daughter and anything in his path.

They are all the same shit

I thought I was the only one who knew about that comic.

How can Chuck be a virgin if he has a daughter?

How does it feel being the worlds wrongest man?

DRIVE INTO THE WOODS AND EAT CORN OUT THE CAN

YEAH I GAVE IT ALL AWAY, THE HARD ROCK BAND,

The song is okay, i guess.

THE GROUPIES, THE BOOZE, THE ALL NIGHT JAMS.

What? Where the fuck have you been posting
Man you're retarded

It's his first ever time playing, don't bully poor user.

How is me baiting the car into slamming into a tree and jumping at the last second a retarded move on my part?

NOW ALL THESE FANS, ASKING WHERE DID HE GO?

Because at that point you should be fully aware that collision damage does not exist

The car actually gets visibly damaged, tho.

Same thing happened to me, thought it was a bug but apparently that's just how the game works.

Everybody knows about Cow Tools.

I just got ending C for simply not getting to the heliport on the last day.
I can't wait to see the rest.

Well then get to the heliport in time, faggot. The point of 72 hour mode is the time limit and the sense of urgency and panic it causes.

I wanted to see what happens if i just stay with Isabela in the hideout and not go alone to the top of the heliport.
Everybody is gone at that point and the titty monster turned into a zombie.

Yeah I always wondered how in the fuck that happened. IIRC she never got bit or even within groping distance of a zombie. Such a shame to see such a QT 3.14 turn into a cannibalistic abomination.

The AI is DR1 is so fucking atrocious. I just had the barricade pair get fucked to death while I was trying to help Leah. At least I killed the convicts beforehand.

I've been playing DR1 for the first time on and off the past month & I've been enjoying it so far. I've played the sequels up to 3 on PC & honestly the only thing I miss from 2/OTR is ordering survivors to make a beeline toward wherever I point them too. I know I've let some survivors just get eaten because the group already caught up to the loading zone. I'm probably near the end I left it off shortly before the military arrives.


She was a bitten off screen during the cutscene where she struggles with the old guy. You can see a bit of blood near her shoulder during that scene

MEDITATING ON A ROCK LETTING GO OF THE EGO

I meet a nigger with a shotgun survivor while i was carrying Isabela, he kicked ass all the way to the starting area when he, a guy with a shotgun, got surrounded with enemies and proceeded to cry like a bitch instead of, you know, murdering them all with the shotgun.
I couldn't leave Isabela alone and was so pissed off at what i was seeing i just left him to die.
Even better was survivors pathfinding where they did oekaki related to me in the park area.
