Looks like Qloc wasn't handling this one.
Dead Rising 3 PC Steam pre-load is live
- Thread starter LQX
- Start date
Changing Steam's preferred download server location isn't necessary so you can snip that from the list:
- Exit Steam
- Start TunnelBear
- Set it to Japan
- Turn switch to ON
- Restart Steam
- After launching it double-click on Dead Rising 3
- It should now unlock, so you can turn TunnelBear OFF again.
Capcom wanted to make the port as cheap as possible.
Well something has to give.
I don't think they will bother fixing anything.

I had to change the preffered download server to Japan to get it to work since it wouldn't let me unlock it when I set it to a different country.
Maybe it's some kind of placebo but it helped.
If Steam doesn't find the requested data in your preferred location then it just switches to somewhere else that does have it. This is why tools like Steam Limiter exist.

Took me about 10 minutes on SSD.
Good luck with the later parts of the game.

Yes! I'm not alone, sorry but this actually makes me feel better!

Really bizarre that Titans have such low framerates. I'd think they'd be at least on past with 780tis
Titan Black/4930K here, and I've witnessed the frame rate tank to about 28fps during cutscenes (1080p, max settings). In-game performance is decent, but a far cry from a locked 60fps experience. Then again, I'm extremely picky, and tend to rate overall performance based on minimum frame rates. It's what stands out to me, and unfortunately DR3 is fully packed with sub-40 dips that honestly make me cringe. That being said, average looks to be somewhere between 45-50fps so far, but I'm probably settling for the more consistent, originally intended 30fps experience.

Wow, the game freezes the moment it opens up. What the hell! twice in a row now, didn't even get to play it yet. Freezes at the first loading screen even before the main screen.
At least some of you got to play it before it crashed. lol

It ran really poorly at first, but then I went to the options and changes the texture resolution settings from "Best" to "1080p" (which is what I'm running now anyway, and it runs much better now
Still hoping for a patch to smooth things out a bit more, but it's totally playable now.

Any way to get a refund from Steam when your game doesn't even get passed the first loading screen leading up to the menu?
I have no clue why it's doing this. FFS, I got a pretty good rig I think too, I should at least be able to play it.

Preloaded this several days ago. Came home for a bit at lunch time to give it a quick go since for some reason it was not able to be played at midnight last night (lame).
Nope. "Updating Dead Rising 3" Seems as though it's gonna take an hour or so to unpack the game? (hard to tell, the estimate seems to change wildly). I guess preload doesn't mean pre-install.
Christ. I wanted to play and watch it crash during my lunch like everyone else
I want to be mad at someone, so who should I direct my rage at? Valve? Capcom? My third grade teacher? Aliens?

This is my question.
Steam users are now reporting that some files are missing for certain regions and that has caused the game to be unplayable people can't even get passed the loading screen.

Yeah I understand. I'm running a 780ti and the vast majority of the time I'm above 60fps in-game. All settings maxed. On paper the titans have performance equal to or better than the 780ti
They should perform identically in games, and they do in fact in the vast majority of titles. DR3 seems to be the exception here, for whatever reason. If I were a betting man I'd say it has to do with the drivers. I wouldn't be surprised if the double-precision cores in the Titan variant require slightly different drivers that may be conflicting with DR3. If that's the case, Nvidia should be able to do something about it. Hopefully.

This game is a lot of fun. Glad I picked it up. I loved the original game, but wasn't a huge fan of the second and didn't play a lot of it.
Made it to level 10 and finished the first day.
Performance-wise, it runs decently enough on my system. Probably going to lock it at 30fps to prevent the frame rate jumps.

People called Romanes they go the house?
I honestly have only seen one major issue with my 760, and that was really bad greyscale flickering. Went away on its own after a bit.
I really, really enjoy less of the 'urgency' of the new story mode, at least when you're starting out at level 1.

If you're on an nvidia card, many are reporting that rolling back your drivers seems to get rid of them.

Framerate all over the place on my midrange PC.
Core i5 4440
3GB 7950 oc to 950/1400
8GB DDR3 2133
120GB SSD
It's kind of smooth 60 with bad dips at 1080p with 3D res at 900p, mid 40s at full 1080p with FXAA.
Optimisation of this game is terrible considering the specs of XBO.....

The first Dead Rising was my KA for Xbox 360.
Skipped the 2 [it always gave me a 'more of the same feeling'], I'm having alot of fun with this.
On my i5 2500K@4.4 GHz + GTX 670 OC I have consistent 30 FPS@1080p.
Win unlocked frame-rate an average of 35-40. Meh.
No crashes [ATM...].

Big fat 0 from me, this game performs atrociously for what is suppose to be a port of an Xbox One game. I haven't even played the game yet, it just sits on the loading screen for 30+ minutes before it decides to crash the computer.
Specs if anyone really cares:

Thank you for responding! The issue has been resolved, and Dead Rising 3 is up and running. Thanks!
It's dual channel so you have to multiply this number by two. Mine is at 800 (1600MHZ).

I can attest to this. Played with a friend who rolled back his drivers (and verified cache beforehand) after getting crashes, then got none the whole time we played... which was a really long time.
Anyway, I second wanting a PC OT. I'm one of those few that's been having a blast with the game despite the issues.
