Dead Rising |OT| Chop Till You Drop Remastered

Damn, i would like to have the dodge rolls on the L3 button instead of the "old double stick tap in a direction" in the first DR.

Frank is doing dodge rolls every 30 sec. Irritating.
Maybe my DS4 is not working well ? Anyone else here have the same "problem" ?

I have the same problem, but not as frequently.
Though I had that problem on 360, but I always thought that was due to a faulty controller.

It's really strange.
 
Played DR1 for around 2 hours last night on PS4 and, despite only playing the original for around the same amount of time, I remembered it all so vividly.

I had a great time popping novelty heads on zombies and using a bowling ball and the undead as my pins.

I then wandered outside and remembered why I stopped playing it the first time... those fucking convicts!!! I was dead within 20 seconds. I never beat them the first time I played either.

Can't wait to get back into in tonight though. It's scratching an itch I never knew I had.
 
I am wondering the same, it is not listed on their site but all other major retailers like walmart, target and amazon have it.

Does anyone know if they do have it in stores and it's just not listed on the site for some reason?

Bumping for answers.

I remember they had Resident Evil 4 HD listed as "coming soon" on their site, the day it came out. It took an additional day for it to appear as available, despite being available in stores. This, however - doesn't appear to even have a SKU (or Dead Rising 2)
 
Bit confused about the timer. While going to case 2-2, it went from red to empty. Got there, did the boss fight as normal, now case 2-3 has started and the timer is still empty. Does the timer for cases work differently to the survivor and psychopath ones?

You can just run away. You don't have to fight them.
 
Seen a few people mention save slots like they didn't exist in the original - pretty sure I used multiple save slots to get all the different ending back in the day.
No, extra save slots didn't exist when the game originally came out and for months / years to come, since Microsoft took their sweet time including small internal flash drives for newer console iterations and implementing USB stick support across the board. Unless you bought a memory card beforehand, all you had was one save slot on your default HDD for a considerable period of time.

No it's not. Watch the digital foundry video on the PS4 version to see it is not part of the game.
The Digital Foundry video literally describes hit stop when they're somehow confused about whether it's frame stuttering, which as a matter of fact was really apparent in the Xbox 360 version as well.

Some story cases during the same chapter have a continuous timer, even if there are boss fights tied to campaign progression.
 
Is there some way for me to buy this digitally on Xbox One from germany? I can just import DR 1 and 2 but Off The Record is digital only and it's the only one I haven't played so far :/ As far as I know I'd need a US cedit card to buy from the US store?
 
And once you beat
Adam
you never even need to go back into the park

True!

Crazy survivors, lol. I love this game!

Just change the region to AT (Austria) an buy a german xbox live card or code. You can redeem it in your AT account. You'll need an adress in austria though...but..google exists ;)
 
Oh, so it doesn't just tell you right there that you've failed the story like in DR2?

It does, but some story stuff will not time fail. Most obviously is Backup for Brad, which you can ignore, never start, and proceed to fuck off for the length of the campaign if you want.
 
I'm floored by how good the PC Port is. I'm running everything on max with a 980gtx with no frame drops, aside from the hit pauses with blunt weapons. I wish I could turn that off though.
 
If i never played a dead rising game which one should i buy and play?
I only want to buy one of the games (mainly because so many games are coming out and time and moneywise i have to compromise).

Sounds really jarring now with the high frame rate. Might see a mod for that, but that's not a simple texture replacement or injection.

I understand your situation entirely. Personally, I'd go with Dead Rising 2. Far better gameplay. More refined, and doesn't use the silly time system. Frank West is a far better protagonist though.
 
Thank you. 2 is not remastered or am I wrong? Because there is a GfWL version from 2010. Only 1 is tthe remastered version on Steam (which was not available on PC before)

I'll put more information into the OT when I get home from vacation.

The PC version removed GFWL and was the basis for the console ports, that's why there are no changes for the existing PC version.

First game hands down, if you like the challenge. DR2 brought some welcome QoL tweaks to the standard gameplay, but the original is the most cohesive experience of the series without being bogged down by combo weapons.

... Yes it does.

I went to Best Buy last night. My Best Buy did not carry it. Bought at GameStop instead.

the overall case 2 will continue to its end, but then you'll fail the remaining cases
 
Yeah I kinda guessed so. I will return once I level up a bit to extract some Willamette justice on their asses.

Plus I believe there's a trophy tied to defeating them and stealing their truck.
You can beat them easily the first time you see them. Get the sword and uzi from the main Plaza after the safehouse, make the idiots crash into a tree. Use the uzi on the gunner to murder immediately, then run over and swing the sword on the driver and then the passenger will jump over so don't stop swinging. Its funny how I used to fear them but now they get dropped in 15 seconds max.

It's puzzling. But capcom got a sale because I went ahead and bought it from Amazon for the Prime discount window.

Just know that you can unlock shortcuts that pretty much circumvent those convicts.

Also they get stuck on trees a lot and dont know how to reverse

What? Dead Rising 2 uses the time system the exact same way.

Also that time system is what DR is about man.
 
I'm not sure if i would agree that the game play is better in dr2. Okay, shooting mechanics are better. However, melee is largely the same and the crafting system really messes up item balance.
