so yeah, I finally hit the deal breaker with this game. For some perspective, dead rising 2 launched with single player, fully playable in co op, and a multiplayer mode that was pretty well done. Dead Rising 3 also had the campaign be fully playable in co op, and later added the 4 player super ultra dead rising 3 arcade remix through dlc. Now we are getting no co op whatsover, and some 4 player multiplayer challenge mode instead(somewhat similar to Super Ultra with less fun included at no extra charge)....

Why on earth would they take out co op. I cant even imagine playing these games alone anymore

 

[giancarlo123x]

Are you fucking kidding me? I thought this garbage was 4 player coop when it was announced, not some mini game shit. First the fucking timer game mode dlc and now this? Not sure if I can.

 

[BobLoblaw]

Dafuq is Capcom doing? First it was SFV with the bullshit and now this?

 

[NeOak]

Devs shouldn't throw away stuff like this

 

[The Flash]

This game was a mistake

 

[Vital Tundra]

Seriously don't understand how anyone is giving this the benefit of the doubt.

 

[Producer]

2 completely different partnerships and studios that worked on these games. Dead Rising 4 does seem pretty shit though.

 

[RecRoulette]

Dead Rising 4: Dial C for Chuck is going to be dope when they add this stuff back.

 

[Natiko]

Wow really? Canceling my preorder then. Only reason me and a friend were buying it was to play coop.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Bringing it back to its roots so hard that they're removing features added in sequels.

I for one applaud Capcom Vancouver's courage.

[thekonamicode]

Dead Rising 4 is nothing but trash.

 

[Anarky]

"Bringing it back to it's roots"

 

[Anung]

Fuck this game. They seemingly can't say anything about it without making it sound unappealing.

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

They don't fucking know, same as the last decade.

 

[Zaverious]

When you bring it back to the roots too hard.

 

[unrealist]

Unlock 2 player coop - $4.99
Unlock 3 player coop - $9.99
Unlock 4 player coop - $14.99

 

[Jawmuncher]

That's pretty lame. I thought it was 4 player like super, and 2 for campaign. DR2 campaign in coop was so much fun.

 

[OraleeWey]

They have gone back to the "core" mechanics guys!

 

[Mr. Pointy]

This just in, Dead Rising 4 to actually be Dark Void 2.

 

[OraleeWey]

Wow really? Canceling my preorder then. Only reason me and a friend were buying it was to play coop.

Please stop pre ordereding games

 

[MadLaughter]

So what's the list so far?

1. No co-op
2. Frank looks and sounds bad
3. No timer

 

[dragonflys545]

After the added 4 player Co-op. I thought it was obvious that story co-op would be in!

Wow I guess I was wrong lolol.

 

[matrixman92]

I believe it has health regen, and you cant mix food and all that good stuff if u cared for that

 

[FireBeaver]

Capcom Vancouver was a mistake.

 

[Mass One]

And now I'm uninterested.

 

[dragonflys545]

Capcom Vancouver was a mistake.

Every western collaboration Capcom had in the last couple of years has been nothing but a mistake.

Zombies don't get more aggressive at night.
No natural day/night apparently

 

[Vamphuntr]

It's kind of interesting to watch what they are trying to do with this game. Why bring back Frank if he looks and sounds nothing like the original and the game plays nothing like the first either. Pretty sure fans of the original liked the gameplay and structure of the first and you won't find this here. Why bring Frank back then?

The coop in 3 what was made the game fun to me. Otherwise it felt like another wacky semi-open world game with ridiculous weapons. I'm a big fan of 1 (and 2) and felt 3 was a huge step down. Can't imagine liking this one much now.

With the way this is going we can only hope it won't be the final Dead Rising game.

I still feel like Dead Rising is on the chopping block at capcom. I feel like it might be a case of budget not reflecting sales. Which would explain the radical shifts.

 

[CanUKlehead]

Getting to the point with me that when a game has a release date announced, I'm thinking, 'cool, can't wait to buy it a year from then, when all the features and fixes are in the complete edition'.

 

[Stiler]

Wow......whelp my interest in this game just fell to the floor.

The hell are they thinking? Co op was the most fun aspect imo.

 

[outsida]

Their aim to make this the worst selling Dead Rising shall come to fruition.

 

[Tengrave]

Wow! What the hell is this game? Loved 1-3 very much but everything about 4 is a big turn off. Still can't get over how weird Frank looks.

 

[Isurus]

Preorder will be cancelled if true. The 4 player co-op was what had me interested. After DR3, I can't imagine playing a game in the series alone anymore. Just fucking stupid.

 

[D1renegade]

I coulda swore I saw a thread earlier today about IGN First revealing 4 player coop...

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

Ok, between this and the psychopaths, now we're having an issue. Not good moves Vancouver.

 

[RecRoulette]

Zombies don't get more aggressive at night.
No natural day/night apparently

The fuck? Why was that a problem?

 

[Anung]

They going so far back to this games roots it's just going to be released as a blank disc right?

 

[matrixman92]

I coulda swore I saw a thread earlier today about IGN First revealing 4 player coop...

its that mode I mentioned in the OP. It has nothing to do with story mode. Its kinda like a challenge mode/horde thing. With different characters you can level up. Not my cup of tea

 

[User 479360]

I only want to play it solo anyways.

Still excited.

 

[Hoho for breakfast]

Ok I was glad the timer was gone but no co-op may be a deal breaker. Still just waiting for reviews.

 

[matrixman92]

Is there anything they could do at all that would make you not excited

 

[Persona7]

This sucks. Co-op in DR2 was amazing.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

This sucks. Co-op in DR2 was amazing.

yup. that sold two copy's when i got my friends to buy it.

this blows

RIP Dead Rising

 

[Falchion]

That sucks but at least co-op is still in there, it's just it's own thing.

 

[icespide]

people really hate this game

 

[TemplaerDude]

I will take a handwritten list of complaints over to their offices.

 

[Sword Of Doom]

I have dead rising 3 on PC and I'm planning on playing it co-op with my coworker. Sucks if they took it out of 4

 

[Polioliolio]

Well, this is where I draw the line. No longer interested in buying.
