If anyone wants to be my friend, my LIVE name is "jStereo".

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Has anyone met the insufferable morons in the yard yet?

How do you even go up against them?

Run. That's what I did.

Also, what am I supposed to do with this dickhead photographer? He won't follow me to the Security Station, but he won't let me leave him either!

 

[Somnia]

The maintence key to get past the stupid guys in the hummer is that in the security office? If not where is it located? Someone said the basement ,but how exactly do I get to the basement?

 

[vatstep]

The aiming controls are LAME. Yes, I understand that you can't move while aiming (maybe this is a skill that you acquire?), but the controls for it should STILL be on the right stick. Regular camera controls are done with the right stick, and photography controls are done with the right stick. It's just completely clunky to have to switch over and use the left stick to aim. I'm forgetting half the time, and I'm getting killed.

 

[White Man]

Where the hell do I get the batteries for my camera charged? I just found the photographer, but I can't do anything with him because my batteries are dead.

 

[Jasoco]

I was just about to ask that. Am I supposed to take him somewhere? All we're doing right now is hanging out in front of the camera store taking photos and killing zombies. Should I try to go to "Backup for Brad"? Which is my next actual goal.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

The photography store from the demo, right next to the door to the warehouse. Against the left hand wall you ought to see the option.

 

[Somnia]

You recharge your batteries in the camera stores... like the one right as you leave the warehouse just run back to the batterie rack and click b.

 

[White Man]

Cool. Found em. But then I accidentally shot him a bunch of times with the machine gun and he kicked me in the head and killed me.

It's easy to die in this.

 

[Y2Kev]

I need that maintainance key. Anyone, details on the basement?

 

[Ashodin]

No, when you're at the point where you're following him around and taking pictures, it's a quest, to take the pictures he wants you to take. The last picture you should take of him will have him with his hand in front of him, fist closed, like a "YEAH!" position. Once you take that picture, it'll end and he'll disappear, to another area.

 

[Jasoco]

I already know that. That's why I'm in front of the camera store. The question is what to do with Kent... who just followed me into the bathroom. Privacy please!

BTW, I notice the game doesn't store every photograph. They seem to have been all deleted after 28 photos. Am I supposed to only keep certain ones? Or does it not matter what photos I keep? Because everything before the photo I took of the two roof dwelleing lovebirds is gonee. Including the one with the 8000+ PP.

Once you take the photo, you get the PP, and that's it, I think. I don't think you have to keep any photos unless you like them. It would've been cool to have an option to send photos to friends.

 

[Y2Kev]

I can't avoid those idiots while carrying someone. I need that key. This is seriously breaking the game for me.

If I get out of their range, they just drive up again.

 

[Somnia]

What I'm doing till I find this damn key is going all the way to north plaza and exiting there, then just sticking to the left wall over to paradise plaza, they don't normally go that far over it seems.

I held Sophia's hand through the Courtyard and made it. It might be slower if you're carrying that jewel store broad. It seems like they stop at points and that's when you can do damage to them. I didn't linger long enough to find out.

 

[BamYouHaveAids]

I found the Megabuster, it's in the cinema at the rat store. BEST WEAPON EVAR!

 

[Goreomedy]

I'm having a blast with this shit.

But... my first Escort mission inside the mall(not the gimmie on the roof), I brained the poor girl with a barbell when she got too close. I was laughing so hard I didn't even noticed I was getting swarmed and promptly died.

And yeah, forcing me to use a gun on Evil Zorro sucked ass. I hate guns. Let me use blunt objects on bosses, assholes.

Uhh.. Kept photos are then shared on XBL. So the highest rated photos you've kept are totalled into the rankings.

Supposedly to kill the convicts in the Hummer you need to use the Uzi to kill the gunner first. When he dies the Hummer will stop. After that, run to the back of the Hummer and use the gattling gun in the back to kill the driver and the passenger.

I say supposedly because I haven't tried it yet myself.

 

[Jasoco]

What the **** is Carlito's problem? I can't even HIT THE ASSHOLE without him flipping me through the air! Wasn't he a GOOD GUY? UGH! I beat this son of a bitch the first play through. Now I can't even get within two feet and I have no GUN!

and where is the uzi? i want to make my trips across the park a bit less dangerous

After you enter the mall from the warehouse go right and head up the first flight of stairs on the right. About halfway up you will see a blue awning. Jump on top of it and follow it around the mall as far as it goes. The Uzi is at the end. Dropping off of this awning will also unlock an achievement.

I did it a slightly different way, but still with the Uzi.

Spoiler

I took out the gunner with the Uzi, then used a standard pistol to shoot the passengers and I nailed 'em with a mannequin torso when they would hit a tree or pole. Tie 'em up in a bunch of trees, it's easier!

After spending way too long trying to keep them all alive, I finally have

Spoiler

Greg, Sophie, and the two Japanese tourists

back at Paradise Park after

Spoiler

that awesomely horrible clown

. Now I just hope my chainsaw holds out long enough to get them all back to the security room.

thanks! i unlocked that achievement in the warehouse by going to the left hand door on the roof instead of the elevator

are you giving the survivors any weapons?

Aw, I wish I would've known that before I restarted. I had such an awesome picture of the photographer kid doing a flying kick and a corresponding gore splatter suspended in mid-air, it pulled in thousands of PP and netted me an acheivement.

 

[Jasoco]

Dammit! I'm sitting in the roller coaster cockpit waiting for it to start going with one square of health left. No movement. NO MOVEMENT! Zombies coming from both sides. They kill me.. THEN THE DAMN THING STARTS MOVING! WTF?

Oh, and Leah's a lost cause. Oh well.

 

[BuddyC]

are you giving the survivors any weapons?

No. I didn't know you could do that.

Things should be easier now!

 

[BojTrek]

Well, the wife and daughters are in Michigan... I painted some baseboard trim...

I just ate dinner... I am going to start watering the grass...

And I will be ready to give Dead Rising the next 3 hours or so of my life...

 

[JPRaup]

I love this game, I got to the part where you save brad and died, but I forgot to save, so Im back at the beginning. This time I tried to kill as many zombies as possible, in that part where u have to run up the stairs, damn that was fun. I just wanna level up as fast as I can and become a BEAST. I love this game. I hate the dickhead photographer, no matter how many pictures I take, HE WANTS MORE!! what do you do?

I love Dead Rising.

i couldnt read the scoop about the photographer so i just let him die *shrugs* i found him later on the floor in the eatery

 

[Jasoco]

All right. That was a little weird. Frank gets a little too excited when he puts on a dress.:lol

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

I finally nailed it. You have to get him perfectly in "Yeah!" pose. Then he arranges for you to meet him the next day

Spoiler

to exchange porn, basically.

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

Spoiler

The killer klown was awesome..especially his death scene. God his Chainsawds are kickass.

Honestly I'm not having that many problems with the game. Although escorting sucks at times and the twats in the jeep are rather annoying I got a level up that includes a speed boost and I'm digging it. Hell at least when you die you still make some sort of progress(exp, civilian rescues, photos, etc) and there's so many fun weapons to try out.

Spoiler

Found a scythe in the park. Kind of annoying to use but you can snag an enemy with it and pop it's head off. Also there's fish in the pond to smack zombies with.

Oh and I finally reach Case 2. I still had to save the Japanese tourists but I figured "**** em" and just sat around waiting for the next mission to start. :lol

**** me reaction time is horribly for that, even though I know its coming :lol

 

[VALIS]

I fell asleep this afternoon instead of picking up DR when I planned, now it's sold out at the three EB/GS stores in my immediate area! Mother****er. Knew I should've mail ordered it.

 

[White Man]

I just got Brad in the store next to the hardware store, but he won't follow me. He keeps crying.

 

[BamYouHaveAids]

Use the Uzi.

 

[Y2Kev]

Use the Uzi it's in the same place it was in the demo.

I got it, but somebody said they respawn. True?

I just want a faster way to bring people to safety. Nobody has any idea where it is? The one guy who said it was in the basement (which can be accessed through the yard) was a little vague.

 

[Somnia]

So I killed the pyscho's in the hummer and they respawned...

 

[Y2Kev]

Ugh... I'm gonna have to try again during the day when the zombies aren't as aggressive. This game can be pretty hard! I was leading the Japanese tourists and they just got eaten alive.

 

[Somnia]

What I did to make life easy is kill the guys in the hummer then use their big gun to kill the guy in the gun shop so I can have free guns for life =)

They don't respawn, and the Uzi is on the the blue ledge in Paridise Plaza. Go to the first staircase go half way up, turn right, jump onto the blue ledge, and walk across it. it should be at the end of ledge.

 

[Jasoco]

My Brad got killed. Screw Brad. "Brad is Undead!"

What am I doing in the supermarket? Aside from constantly having to go back in for food because of these ****ing zombies never let me get to the save point completely healthy.

 

[Somnia]

They respawned for me...

 

[Somnia]

Went out there this time and they were not up.. don't know if they respawn after so many in game hours or what

 

[mikeGFG]

Yes! Finally got it. Time to make some White Juice

 

[GotchaForce]

Ok, sorry if this has been repeated, but the save system: I can either restart with my current stats, or reload my last save?

So far I've just kept my stats, I'm about to start the game over for the eighth time.

 

[TekunoRobby]

Holy shit everyone on my friends list is playing Dead Rising! :lol
