Dead Rising (Xbox 360) now with spoilers - Page 7

Bah, every time I read this thread I want to go home and play it. Only 5 or so hours to go

Matblack · 14-09-2006, 11:02

I'm glad I stuck with it to be honest because I thought it was just going to be a bit boring and slightly too hard. After the first few hours I was ready to give up but now I'm really rocking, I just need to master these special moves

.

Did someone say there is a place which shows you all the key combinations for them?

Killing cult members with the small chainsaw is easy PP btw that has to be one of the best weapons in the game

Press Start, enter 'status' (I think) and then click on Skills. Tells you which moves you have and how to perform them. The notebook also shows which items you have - so far I only have the transceiver, map and maintenance key, no idea what the other five or so are meant to be.

Re: best weapons in the game, apparantly there's a masonry tool on some of the scaffolding that you can impale zombies on and spin then round. Not found it yet though.

I'm at about day three for the second time - managed to rescue a lot more people this time, and left behind the ones that caused mutinies before! Most of the bosses only take three or four hits with the clown's chainsaw to finish them off now, and I have the full speed power-ups so I'm fairly quick. I'm looking to try and get more achievements but some of them are quite difficult - to get the pimp achievement you have to escort eight female survivors in one go!

Some of these achievements are diabolical. I have over 30 of the possible 50, but a lot of these are damn near impossible. To get the five-day survivor and seven-day survivor achievements you have to play in infinity mode. You get to roam free with no tasks to do but your health drops by one bar every 100 seconds, food doesn't respawn any more so when it's gone it's gone, and you can't save! That means you have to play for fourteen hours without turning the console off. Talk about tough.

Well I can now finally play this as my VGA cable turned up yesterday. So far I've managed to kill Carlito but apart from that it's rather difficult as if I venture through the outside park area I keep being killed by the guys in the jeep. Unfortunately when I started the Carlito mission my skateboard got swapped for a gun

So I'm stuck regarding getting round and have to brave nightfall and being shot.

I've found the gun shop but got creamed by the guy behind the counter and also found the knife shop. The katana is awesome

I'm only level 4 at the moment trying to find my way round to do the cloth scoop, on and wearing a hat and suit, looking very suave.

Matblack · 09-01-2007, 09:56

All I will say is MAKE SURE YOU DO THE ROLLER COASTER/ CLOWN MISSION.

That is all!

The guy on the walkie-talkie said the rollercoaster wasn't a toy, any suggestions of where I can get onto it?

I did find that the place where the knife & gun shop are isn't completed. Oh and I've started running past zombies and not stopping to kill anything insight. Another thing too the chainsaws are awesome if a little short in running.

Whilst trying to get someone back to the main security area I noticed the xxxxx is dead appearing a bit but I had no mission to get to them and try to save them do I take it they are unsaveable?
