I'll say I have noticed it but not bad enough to warrant your endless dramatics.

No sir. I'll try that in a few minutes and comeback with results.Warm Machine said:
When I played, there was a point where the framerate stuttered, I thought it was going lock up on me.
Edit: Back with a report. It seems that clearing my cache worked wonders. VERY MINIMAL framerate issues compared before. I went through a crowd of zombies several times hacking and slashing my way through and it runs beautifully. AWESOME! Now I can enjoy the game without the framrate dropping to PowerPoint slide status.
Thanks!

DR2 on PC, this will be bliss for me. PC chair is much more comfortable than anything else. Can't wait.

frame rate outside is clearly lower than inside, but there is a good number of zombies on screen. i'm still buying on PC, but Capcom got another five dollars out of me this way. (just unlocked it after spending about forty five minutes on the trial).
and, damn! this has probably been said before but the trial of this contains way more content than the demo of the original dead rising did. it's a much bigger area and has a MUCH longer time limit.
i really hope people aren't still calling this a demo you have to buy.
there is i'd guess at least twice as much content and area to explore here than in that one area of the mall you got in the first demo.
great stuff capcom. do this again!

Wow found a fire extinguisher and didn't expect that to happen

yep, looks complete.
i've played a lot of case zero, and i've had very few frame rate issues. it's a shame so many people are suffering from this, and i can understand how that would take away from a generally pleasing experience.
gotta say though, loved it.

That would be awesome. No sense worrying about leveling up if you plan on getting the PC version. Please hope for the best.

Just finished first time, but allowed a couple late restarts after running around experimenting, so sort of played 3 times through. Will play yet again for fun/get a few remaining achievements such as all survivors (never found the
's
).
Encountered no framerate issues of note, though the save system had oddly L O N G pauses between save file selection and actual saving.
And I like what they've done with the main character Chuck, he is actually quite agreeable as a playable character in the "noble father" mold.

I don't know about artistically unique, but the graphics are fineseady said:Just got all the achievements - my first time ever 100% a game's achievement
The game is really enjoyable and I beat it 3 times and on my way for the 4th.
And I think the graphics look awesome and artistically unique. I don't understand the complaints.

I beat the game again tonight looked at leader board and im 5545 or something. I got 200/200 and i had a blast doing it. I found something weird on my last playthrough though. When the game should have finished I could keep driving the bike. I turned it around and drove it toward the hummers at the end. If you come from the tunnel toward the hummers and get a wheelie by stoping and holding gas you can drive between the hummer and the guard rail that will be on your right and off the map completely. I followed this weird road around till I came to the end of the game map. Then I just drove the bike off falling into nothing. Weird. :lol I'm unsure why I could keep driving instead of getting the game ending cutscene. I had saved all the survivors and had 30 minutes before military was suppose to be there.

I've got 160 achievement points on my second playthrough. Now I just have to rescue the gunman's daughter and spend $100,000 at the pawn shop to complete the achievements. Case 0 has been really easy overall. I never died, got stuck or ran out of time on the story stuff.

If you give Sharon your first Zombrex, is there more for Katey or is that the only one in the game? And if there is another one, where is it?

You have to buy the second one at the Pawn shop. That's the only backup one.ToyMachine228 said:

I have no idea. It got an A on 1up and it's a super great slice of game for $5.
I just finished the game. I was running back with the last motorcycle part I needed when I ran out of time, and so I just got a D rating. Doh! I've immediately started again and I'll assuredly get a better score this time now that I know where to get money fast (
rescue the people in the bar
Can someone put the locations and times of all of the survivors in spoilers? All I've found is the drunk couple and the dudes with the handlebars and looking around and trying to find people is a pain in the ass.
I had the drunk couple just following me around so I could clear an area faster and as soon as the girl died the guy turned on me! :lol
A few slices with the broadsword and he was down, and then the zombies started eating his body :lol
I killed Bob after that just for shits and giggles.

Pawn shop owner appears after you bring the bike to the garage.
The drunk couple are also in the bar right away.
A pair of hungover girls show up in the bowling alley at 1 pm. After you talk to them, you have to find their friend, who is in a tent in the quarantine zone. She has to be carried over to the bowling alley (and given Zombrex) before the pair will join you.
Handlebar guys appear after 3 pm behind the department store.
At 7 pm, Bob finds his daughter in the hunting shop. After shuttling back and forth between them for a bit, you can rescue them both.

Bob tells you where survivors are once they show up, so if you see him waving his arms around and calling out, head up to him and he'll tell you where to go next.

Giving Tia and Niki weapons and listening to them making random comments as they attack zombies had me in stiches! This game can be so hilarious! :lol

Gotta ask, since the thread search tools on this forum are basically non-existant -- google also gave me nothing on multiple tries...
How does one obtain an S rank for the playthrough?
Do you get anything extra for doing so?
I have a 200/200 on the game, but I think the highest playthrough ranking I obtained was A-rank.

They're between a big gas truck and a yellowish car in the quarantine zone.
Shin -- I got the build all combo weapons halfway through assembling them all on a 3rd or 4th playthrough.

It's really true. I've played a ton of the original, so I'm acutely aware of the small beats as you said. Blue Castle really did a great job nailing it for Case 0. Hopefully that continues over to the full game and has even more stuff.
If you told me that this was developed by the original team, I would have 100% believed it.
