Dead Rising 2 wishlist




Posted by EvilDeadGamer

i know that theres the rumor of DR2, but lets say that this rumor is eventually comfirmed, wat would u want capcom to add? for me

-Co-op split screen and/or xbox live
-an entire city, not just a mall
-make it where like the guns are hard to find but u can keep them and you find ammo and reload
-make it where the videos are flush with wat you've done such as if you've missed a scoop. you know what i mean if you walk into the gun shop while cletus is still there then all of a sudden that guy is with you, i didnt do that scoop so i didnt know who the guy was


thats all i can think of for now.

ughhh you should be smacked for saying that.... but that avatar of iron fist saved you brotha.

I actually heard a rumor that they are working on an update for Dead Rising that will add co-op via Live. That would be amazing, but seems unlikely. Anyway, co-op is what I really want for the sequal. This game was made for co-op. Imagine the crazy specials that can be done with two people!

Other than that, make the game free roam. Rather than the scheduled gameplay, be here by this time etc., make the whole game scoops. But different kinds of scoops, not just escorts. And please Capcom, give the survivers more A.I. than the zombies! :mad:

Improved saved system,
more open-ended so you can tackle whatever mission you want at your own pace
free play from the get-go
more balanced achievements

Airport instead of a mall. Definitely not a whole city. NO running zombies! Better music, like Goblin did for Dawn of the Dead. Smarter humans 'cause they're dumb and annoying to save. Female lead character.




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

Create-a-character mode. :cool:




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

At least let you customize the clothes so you can mix and match.




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

Create-a-character, though, would probably make you a mute. Which would be great.

I've covered wars, you know.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Voice acting wasn't that bad.

no offence Dexter, but i disagree with most of what you just said. except for the music and the smarter humans, and on the whole running zombie subject, they should make it where some zombies are fast. like if the guy was a track runner before he became a zombie, he's gonna be fast, but like an old fat dude is probably gonna fall over and roll after you.

EDIT: also, did anyone else have trouble with their dead rising disc saying disc read error every now and then, becasue me and my friends that own that game have the same problem.



Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

I think you forget the zombies were ever only an obstacle, nothing more nothing less. They were barely even an enemy in the game. There were just hundreds of them to mess around with and slow you down. If zombies were made to be a main enemy with an active part in the game, the whole design would be fairly different.




Posted by EvilDeadGamer

you have a point, so what the zombie would be like the ones off 28 days later? where they sprint for you and dont stop untill they are completley dead. yea, i could see that. but still i think its needs to be a whole city. they should mix Left 4 Dead and Dead Rising, you know, take the online and the fast zombies from l4d, and the 3rd person, everything is a weapon, ect. from dead rising. i think that would be a cool game




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Wouldn't work. Imagine trying to use a melee weapon against hundreds of fast moving zombies? It just wouldn't be fun. Dead Rising was a campy gore game, not a serious action game. It was deliberately slow.




Posted by EvilDeadGamer

...true...




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

Slow zombies work well in indoor situations. Fast zombies are good for large urban ones. Mix them around and it would get tedious.

I really need to borrow Dead Rising and play it in its entirety. I've only messed around with my friend's copy.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Don't. Not worth it now.




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

But it looks fun. :(




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

It's really not =/




Posted by EvilDeadGamer

i think Dead Rising is a great game, but for the videos to be flush with what you've actualy done you have to do pretty much every scoop, and even then the vids are screwd up sometimes. but it dont matter that much, you get whats going on, and you get to kill zombies and phycos...and the military.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

It was great when it came out. Now, not so much. If your friend can give you a save of his unlocked free play mode, play that.

make it compatable with non hd tv's

i borrowed it from a friend and couldent read shit so i knew almost nothing about controlles and what i was supposed to do. Inever got farther than the inital atack.

Wait, what? Anytime I've played it, it's been on a standard TV, and it's been fine.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Muffla is right. Maybe they fixed it with a patch, but it was a notorious problem when the game first came out. It was nearly impossible to read certain (not all) text in the game if you were in SD. It was also a problem Capcom refused to fix even though numerous websites were hounding them about it.




Posted by EvilDeadGamer

yea, i used to have a little 20" SD back when the game 1st came out, but now i have a 32" SD but it has the y/w/r plus the g/b/r hook ups. and i can see the scoops fine. but yea...that sucked.




Posted by Last Fog

I had a 20 inch sdtv and it was the reason I never knew to meet isabella right at the end of the game, so I had to play it all over to get overtime mode. :grrr:

Between having one save spot and not being able to read case information, this really was a b1tch to play. Still fun though.




Posted by Creedence

Erm, make it in a city, no time limit, you do scoops when ever you want, and make the zombies faster at night. That way if you werent in a building bared up or something it would be hard to survive at night, but so you don't have to just sit there all night you should be able to sleep. When you beet the game you unlock a free roam mode where to grocerie store isn't locked.

Also, every person that might actually be useful to the cause like the gunshop guy, shouldn't be ****ing crazy and try and attack you.




Posted by EvilDeadGamer

hey, steve get on messenger




Posted by Al Borland

I got the first one for free and it was pretty fun while it lasted. After GTA 4 comes out, though, I doubt I'll ever want to play another Dead Rising game again.




Posted by Tiptoegecko

1) Online Co-Op
2) A good story line
3) Them doing away with that stupid mission system
4) Making the zombies an actual enemy, not an annoyence
5) Bigger area (Like an entire city)
6) A seperate online survivor mode




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Oh, and no loading times between areas.

Zombies with no hardhats.

Quoting The X: Make the zombies fast.


Are you mad? For a game such as Resident Evil, it could work, but Dead Rising where theres 7,000 zombies per square foot, it just can't be done. You'd be chopped liver in a matter of seconds.

What I'd like to see, is some decent co-op ability, and perhaps the freedom of doing more things. Perhaps have an open city to a horde of zombies.

Mmmmm and maybe make the zombies grow to learn, so its a little more difficult to escape certain zombies, but still easy enough that you can if your skilled.



Posted by Creedence

Erm some kinda co-op like 4 player coop, but if you and your friend want to be a douche and kill your other friends or people you meet online, then you should be able to do that as well.




Posted by EvilDeadGamer

also, i dont think that certain iteams should break, aside from the gun, stuff like the steel pole thing, you have to do some serious zombie @$$ whopin for that to break, but like the wood baseball bat, of course thats gonna break. and freaking hit the zombies with the golf clubs and hockey sticks, dont hit balls/pucks at them, thats just retarted. but the gun thing is what bothers me the most with the whole iteams breaking thing.

Quoting Vampiro V. Empire: Oh, and no loading times between areas.


Yes, I forgot about that.



Posted by Psi_Agent_X

if its a city, then the player should have a wider varity of veichles besides cars, bikes, and motor cycles.
the player should be able to drive tanks, helicopters and other offencive veichles.
wouldn `t it be fun if you could drive a tank and flatten and blow zombies to bits?




Posted by Creedence

Transferable game level, through the old data on your hard drive would be nice. I don't wanna start it out really slow and with only 4 bars of health and 4 inventory slots.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Might not even be the same character.

Quoting EvilDeadGamer: and freaking hit the zombies with the golf clubs and hockey sticks, dont hit balls/pucks at them, thats just retarted.

They had better keep that in.

The hokey stick, Football, golfclub, soda, etc is how I beat most of the bosses. Would have made zero sense to have 1,000,000 guns in a mall.



Posted by Dexter

I used that machine mounted gun from the convicts' vehicle to kill psychopaths whenever I could. Must have been hard using cans. I could barely kill zombies with soda cans.

How about zombies actually dying off from a room when you kill all that were in there. I didn't like how they constantly respawned. That's where most of my frustration came from because there was really no way to clear the rooms to help save people.

Let's face it guys, true zombies aren't scary and wouldn't make a good main enemy, unless they were altered extremely. Even in many of the best zombie films zombies weren’t the biggest enemy. They were usually used to show off potential human danger, like in Night of the Living Dead or Land of the Dead. Dead Rising followed that formula, using the situation to intensify human violence.

I wouldn't care for online or any kind of multiplayer mode. I just wouldn't expect it and it's not what I'm looking for in my Dead Rising game. I just couldn't imagine it being good enough to bother with.

with weapons, you should be able to modify or alter them in some way, like you could modify a bat with barbed wire to make a barbed wire bat, you could alter a double-barrel shot gun with a saw to make a sawn-off shot gun.
imagine the possible weapons in DR2 with this game mechanic.
