Right across from those boxing gloves, where the Health Magazine 1 spawns, on top of that little news stand is a bowie knife. Otherwise, zombies with a bluish striped shirt usually carry a bowie with them.Tkawsome said:

Hello,can someone help me?
I bought yesterday dead rising 2 for pc and I have a problem.After installing the game properly I launched it and as soon as I was ready to play ,the game asked me about a Windows Live Game account.I created one and then I gave the product key for Live activation.Then when I tried to play I couldn't log in because I was getting a message that my region is not supporting the windows Live Game and etc.I uninstalled the game,created a new account to Live with a UK mail and I was able to log in to Live.But not in the game because after I installed it again,when it asked me about the product key for Live activation in order to connect live to my gamertag,it said that the key I gave it belonged to another account(my old one that doesn't connect to Live).Am i fucked?What is this shit.I paid 30 Pounds and I cannot play the game.How can I find a new product key for Live activation because this fucker doesn't let me save my progress without playing with a gamer profile!

Fuck you Sven ! Here i am hunting for Zombrex with the last 5 minutes ive got, trying to keep him alive, i see some ATM machines, smash em up, go buy some Zombrex, run all the way back to the safe room and then ........
Yeah fuck you Sven.
Yeah fuck you Sven.
Those were my least favorite survivors. When they meet up they're supposed to hug but they somehow got caught in a crowd of zombies and because they were facing each other they kept shooting each other and knocking the other over. I was just shaking my head waiting for it to clear up :lolSadist said:

Can't believe I got the Hero of Fortune City and Justice Served achievements my first time through. Now my second playthrough can be purely dicking around and finding stuff. Anybody know the fastest way to earn money?
I wasn't planning on getting this anytime soon, but I've been reading this thread and now I think I'll pick it up tomorrow. Damn you all.
Maybe I'm remembering wrong, but wasn't there going to be split screen co-op? I feel like I saw a video showing it off. It would have been nice since I enjoy local co-op but whatever, my 360 would probably explode from double the zombies on screen.

As someone who never played DR1, who preordered DR2 under GAF's influence mid-2009 and who forgot about it until it shipped, I really didn't know what to expect... I just revealed "The Facts" (lvl 31) after playing for two days straight 
Good thing the wife is out of town. And since
, I'm not done yet!
The beginning was rather harsh, got up to level 12 around case 3-2 by dying a lot and learning the hard way (trial and error, avoiding Psychos), but not restarting the story. Then fellow GAFer Jaroof4500 offered to join my game, and showed me how fun this game could be when played in the right state of mind. After that, I really enjoyed the game, even though the final boss kept me up way too late :lol
I don't know if I'll do multiple playthroughs to enjoy my powered-up Chuck, but I'm glad I tried that kind of game, with a different design at heart. Thanks GAF!

This should be handy for anyone doing a replay. You can click on the indicators to get a pop-up with screens of each indicated event/item too.

I really like this game but i just feel like im not playing it right..... Im already in case 4, and im only like level 4....
Question about the survivor Andy:
He's the man in Palisades Mall who has a shotgun and doubts there's any reason to go to the Safe House because the zombies are everywhere. So I ran up to him wearing the Blanka mask and before I could even start talking to him, he shoots himself in the head. WTF!? Is it because I freak him out? This game is crazy nuts.
Funniest part about the whole true ending stuff I did (it really wasn't something in the game, but these spoilers are super true ending whatever so don't look if you haven't seen it!)
Someone earlier had mentioned a scare in the credits, and I was waiting for it. Weggles was not prepared, and therefore I was amused at his reaction :lol

The only time I miss the camera is when I'm trying to zoom in to read signs and I realize I can't.

Got to level 50 and saved 50 survivors at the same time.
Don't plan on stopping anytime soon. Easily one of my favorite games of the generation. If anyone wants help on coop 360, feel free to add me: KilgoreTroutt

I highly recommend doing a second playthrough with your powered-up Chuck. Trying to find all the survivors/psychos/combo cards/magazines, etc its totally worth it. The game is clearly built with this in mind.
Hell im not even a more-than-one-playthrough guy and im already thinking about my third.

They're the same as the last game.Darklord said:
Argh. I guess it's not bad for a first run. 5 more.... Probably missed a lot trying to get 8 survivors at once by hauling one to the mission
One Hit Wonder with Bibi Love.
Can someone clarify what exactly carries over to New Game+ once you've gotten the S ending?
duck said he was able to
in the NG+ without having the key, but upon starting a NG+ from my S ending save, I couldn't do so. Had to wait for Sullivan to give you the key.
duck said he was able to
open Maintenance Rooms
I was under the impression all the doors (Maintenance, Underground, Elevator) would be open in NG+?

I like it. I like it a lot.Gigglepoo said:
I love how hard the game gets near the end.
These special zombies are aggressive as HELL, it makes it hard to just get around. I've had a lot of awesome moments just barely closing a maintenance door behind me, making something like a plate launcher, then opening the door to mow down hundreds.

LOOOL! I just figured out how to do one hell of a funny glitch! :lol
So firstly.......go and grab a shotgun. Now equip the shotgun and then you need to go and pick up the survivor Esther the confused old lady that talks to zombies in a shop.
While holding her aim your shotgun and then run and shoot. She will for some reason float away mid air kicking her legs. Stop aiming and she teleports back into your arms.
It was absolutely hilarious! Someone please do it and make a gif!

Maybe its me but I find this game really frustrating. The bathroom save thing is stupid. Its the same shit as the other game. The controls suck, just trying to pick things up is a hassle. Chuck controls like the GTAIV guy.
The mission system sucks, its all timed but it doesnt really give you a priority as to which one you should so and why. Then there are the cases which if one of them runs out of time it ends the game. You instead of having fun pounding Zombies you spend most of your time trying to manage your missions because the game does a piss poor job of letting you know what you should be doing. The weapon combining thing is over rated. You have to be in a certain place to do it and even then the combinations arent nearly as infinite as they made it seem. I am on Case 2. Maybe level 6. How do you guys go after survivors between the cases and getting Katey her meds?

Man, just did 2 hours of pure co-op with a friend on a fresh new game loop from my clear save. It was so good. We gathered up all the initial survivors after the first Zombrex shot for Katey, tamed Snowflake (took SO FUCKING LONG that the story mission expired and the old lady at Children's Castle also expired, but whatever! :lol), beat the CURE guy and gathered up 8 survivors and got them back to the safe house. Since the story on this run is now fubar, it's going to be a pure fuck around/achievement farm run until rescue comes now. Soooo awesome.
