New DLC is fucking awesome. Glad i could go back to the game after skipping season pass.
glad to hear it isnt just my mind playing tricks on me!
it did but this is different. that patch still had problems in certain areas of the city (most notably in Sunset Hills) but now those problems seem to be gone entirely.
good on capcom for continuing their support for this game. oh, and the DLC is ridiculously fun as well
still hunting down a few of the arcade cabinets

So the new E3 DLC isn't a part of the DLC pass right? I think I saw the season pass was on sale for $20... though now that I'm on my computer... the xbox.com site is so horrible I can only find the main game for purchase and not any of the DLC. So, what do you think, get the pass alongside the new E3 stuff or just go for the new stuff by itself?

Sucks, I got the Super Arcade Deluxe blah blah edition, and tried looking for online games as it looks like it would be fun with others and it was basically just searching for games forever. None of my friends have an Xbox One so I couldn't reach out if I wanted. Still fun just solo though, need to dive in some more later this week.
I just finished my 32789698576589237 RUN of the game (this time with a random guy via XBL) and after the ending movie and whatever I got this. What's this?
...and before that I got this funny explosion bug. WTF!?))))

The new dlc is pretty awesome.
Season pass stuff is eeeehhh. Don't really have the want to go burn 40 posters since I'm doing each episode back to back. It's nice to be back in the world and I really hope the devs are working on DR4.
The framerate does seem better too, which is cool.
Oh, one last bit about episode 2. (Big spoiler) Figures they would

kill off the first female protagonist they've had in the series.
Guys, what the hell is this?
Certified Survivalist & Survival Training Specialist aka Bronze & Silver not unlocked?
I unlocked Gold a few days ago:
Heh, I thought that the last I have to do is kill 200,000 zombies (witch I did a few minutes ago)
Any suggestions? :/
LATER EDIT
A user by the name of ragnarok0609 (from another forum) told me what to do (he had the same problem). I made a video of that and I will uploaded in a few minutes.

Are there any players online? I heard it's pretty hard when you play alone.
Yeah, I admit it's difficult to find people online. Especially in odd hours of the day.

Yup.
I bought the DLC two days ago.
It's "Dead Rising X Lollipop Chainsaw", so it's awesome.
I can't beat the third level though (You have to destroy generators). I'm always running out of time (seems impossible when you play alone?)

BTW: How long is the DLC (combined)?. I LOVE Dead Rising. Played 1, 2 (even Off the record) and currently replaying 3. But I haven't bought the season pass. Is it worth it? Any new weapons, costumes or cars?

Oh wow just got Ending "S". The last boss was fuckin' ridiculous so I decided to beat him with my fists. Survived with one quarter of health. Dat adrenaline

If you want to stay in the world a bit more then I suppose it's worth it. I'd wait on a sale as the new character storylines are ok, but nothing groundbreaking. It basically gives you some other survivor perspectives and ties in some stuff to the main game. Neat, but nothing super important. You get a new vehicle and weapon for each character.
Combined I'd say it's probably 7 hours for the 4 character's journeys. They all have their own collectables over the city if you want to do that.
The more recent dlc is the arcade mode where you can do solo or co-op missions. The trailer says it all. Worth it.

Thanks! Seven hours sounds "okay" to me. New areas?

It's pretty good

No and this is the biggest problem. The DLC is just retread quests in the same areas.
I'd buy it if you're a big DR fan or an achievement hunter, but I'd wait for it to go on sale again.

Ah, alright thanks. That's a shame but I really want to support the series so I'll probably buy it anyways
BTW: This game is awesome but the "Overtime mode" is pretty bad (compared to DR 1+2)

If by overtime mode you mean
where you have to destroy 60 zombie harvesters and defeat Hemlock or whatever his name is
I finally completed the game myself a few days ago. I had it since launch but I had let a friend borrow it cuz I wasn't feeling it at the time and I didn't get it back until a week or so ago. I have to say that the first one is still my favorite overall. I guess I just liked the mall setting better. The technical changes in this one were great though. No loading when going to any area of the map. The number of zombies were cool, but I think they went overboard with it. It got to the point where, unless you had the rollerhog, it was a pain to get through the sea of zombies. That zombie crowd swim skill didn't seem to do anything for me. I think they should stick to a certain number of zombies and upgrade the graphics or change the graphical things they do. They had a lot of blurry parts in the cutscenes in the background. Don't need to do that.
And the ending (I got ending S, which I guess is the real ending) was horrible. Too abrupt. Overall, I liked the game, but it was def a let down. They artificially made it difficult to get around the world by throwing barriers and stuff everywhere. City didn't feel that big.

Noticed this thread was still up and running so have a few questions for any of you.
Away to get DR3 today or Wolfenstein, DR3 is my first choice but I was wondering:
What is the frame rate like these days? Has it improved?
The Kinect feature, how sensitive is it to sound?
The DLC that was released at e3 (I forgot its long winded name), is it any good?
Thank you

- It seems to be around 30 most of the time. The frame rate only seems to take a dive if you're going really fast in a vehicle, which also has you seeing textures still loading on buildings and stuff as you come in. But, for the most part, I wasn't bothered.
- It seems pretty consistent on picking up sound. It rarely missed what I was saying.
- I think the DLC you're talking about is pretty good. More fun with friends. It's not very long and is mostly for unlocking different costumes (4 extra costumes each for the 4 characters), which all have their own move sets, and trying to get the best score for ranking. It doesn't seem like something that has a lot of longevity for me, but it was fun for what it was. I like the visual style they used in it, though. Looked like Lollipop Chainsaw.

This is very strange because I've been playing the game over the last couple of days and finally completed it (then started my nightmare run) and haven't had a single problem... no bugs, frame rate or any other issues.
Disappointing you've had that experience really as its a very good game.
Well, upon searching to see if others have experienced this, it seems to be a common issue that started with one of the updates. Even reinstalling the game will not provide a solution in many cases, so I am not even going to try. But sure, the game seems like it is great fun when it works.

I just got this game the other day and dug in, haven't really played a Dead Rising game since a little bit of 2 back in the day.
Is there any tips or anything to sort of get the most out of it? I'm sort of aimlessly walking around, doing some side quest shit like "Get Taro Cards" and "Find Paint Cans" for people. I beat a motorcycle boss and a Chinese monk type guy but I'm sort of lost as to what I'm going for here.
Is it like the old games where you can just start over and have all your PP and level on your guy? Is it possible to unlock EVERYTHING on the player attribute screen?

Yeh if you start over you keep all your PP unlocks, level, kills and stats etc.
Look at the PP trials, do all the side quests and get working towards level 50 once all the side quests have been cleared (if you do it in good time) you should have enough time on normal mode to get through it all and do the story

As someone who enjoyed the original game, but disappointed with 2, I'm really enjoying the game after spending a day with it.
My only issue is that exploration can be a bit tedious. For instance, all the side content that isn't a mission doesn't appear on the main map, making it difficult to track what buildings I've cleared and which ones I have to revisit. The location of collectables is a bit difficult to tell at times on the minimap, as there's no indication on the vertical position of it.
Then there's the locked buildings, such as the nightclub in the first area and a few of the high-end residences in the second. Perhaps it's something that is taken care of through side missions or story progression, but then it could be needing to hunt down specific keys that otherwise have no indication of. Same with the locked crates, though I suspect that plays into the same guy who you can use to call down artillery from all the previews. I guess I shouldn't complain too much since I have much more to go on in comparison to a Souls game.
Otherwise, everything is an improvement. Combat feels great, especially with the delightful super combos and vehicle combos. The two boss battles (Garden of Peace and Ch. 1) have felt far more fair to the player than the past two games, with dodging actually being useful and a clearer indicator of how their health is affected.
And those survivors...they're pretty meaty to where I originally felt that they were too tankish, but the flux of AoE weaponry in the game makes it rather balanced. Otherwise, they'd likely be dying left and right between all the weapon and vehicle play despite whatever caution the player would demonstrate. They might be a bit OP for boss battles since the first survivor you come across trivialized what was an already easy fight in The Garden of Peace.
As for the story and aesthetics, I can't complain too much. Nick is likable, though lacks the personality of Frank West or the personal agency of Chuck Greene. The grim aspects contrasting with the relative over-the-top characters and corny dialogue is well-balanced, though the latter elements somewhat hurt the rather bland cast since lines seem to be dropped for the sake of drops, rather than giving the characters the intended personality.
Overall, it's one of my favorite games of this new generation, and a step-up over the past two games in gameplay.
Edit: This was XBO. On a note of technical issues, the only thing I've noticed was a zombie in Ch. 0 floating up in the air facing down after being killed. Haven't noticed much in texture issues or loading problems.

Does the sense of urgency pick up?
I'm near the beginning and have just been wandering around now for 20-30 minutes. I beat the first psychopath and rescued the first helper survivor. I've had no missions come up since then.
I mean it's fun to mess around but the other DR's feel hectic from the get-go. Here it doesn't feel like that all.

So, as a big fan of DR1/2 is this game worth it? Is it a worthy DR game or is it a generic humorless grimdark zombie game like the devs were going for?
I'm not sure why you're not getting more missions, but no story mode never really feels pressed for time. Try nightmare for a better experience
I skipped DR2 and I think the original is better than DR3, but DR3 is far, far from dark and humorless. If anything I think it tries too hard to be over the top
