Dead Rising

[dataDave]

Cheers mate, found that but problems arose and now my game is broke.

On doing the Medicine Run case, there was no time limit for some reason, so I just minced about and saved a few people in between, totally putting that case to the back on my mind since there was no time limit, so when I decided to eventually do it, get the medicine, return back to the security room and lo and behold, the next case was due to start at 11am, but its now 10pm! Game ruined, have to go back and do all that work again because the case never had a time limit! It started at 6am and the next was due at 11am so why couldnt they put a 5 hour time limit on it? No reason for missing that out at all. I dont know if I can be arsed doing it all again for a third time now since today and yesterday was me going through it for the second time. Really really pissed off once again.

Sure, its partly my fauly as I could have checked the list and seen the next one was due but they should have imposed the time limit so you would know for certain.

It's ok mate. Just give it a break and return. All Frank's stats carry over to a new game (which feels a little dirty, admitedly) so things will be a ton easier. By the time you get back to where you are now (not long at all) you're going to be lvl stupid.

I may have a perfect save so far but I know I'm going to have to start again at somepoint through making the same mistake. I start again even when I miss a scoop man, my game is tough.

This game is feeling more like 'Ground Hog Day' than 'Dawn of the Dead'. You know how Bill Murray always had to catch that kid that falls out the tree...'You never thanked me!!!' - I'm like that with David!

I think I may just return the bloody game, I cant be arsed with doing it all again and dont have time for that kind of gaming. I feel so cheated that I have to start again, what kind of game is that, that knows your ****ing up but doesnt give you proper warning then when you eventually do put the final nail in the coffin, just makes you start from the very beginning.

I love the game, and I've been having so much fun with it but I dont wanna have to go through it all again now only for the same thing to happen later on.

Really disappointed.

Oh man! have one more go and concentrate on the case files, leave the scoops for another time, or vice versa.

I'm a puff and want a perfect ending first time.

That sums it up perfectly.

Also, for anyone pissed off with the convicts in the park you can get rid of those easy enough. Pick up the SMG from the fountain in Al Fresca and then head to the park. Keep running around a tree so that they get stuck and then pick off the gunner with the SMG then TAKE the HEAVY MACHINE GUN from the back of the hummer and mow down those two remaining mother****ers FTW... and then either mow down zombies with it (Think of the Blaine death scene on Predator only with zombies instead of trees. ) or take it to Cletus in the gun shop and show him what a real gun looks/sounds like

What happens once you kill them all and take the jeep? They dont respawn do they? If so, **** it. And what about the jeep itself, does that respawn for infinite use for when in the park as that would be useful.

I think I will try and play it through once more, I'll get the small chainsaws as quick as possible and triple book it for total carnage which will help me through the game faster to catch up with where I was.

You ran out of time and the case has already expired. At the very least their need to be some red left in the time indicator bar next to the case name.

[yesteryeargames]

Hello, there was a definatly red left in the case box, do i need to take a phot of her or something ?

[NeoStuey]

Taking her picture when the yellow PP indicator shows will only count towards the psycho photo acheivement (10 needed to unlock).

If you shoot her in time she will crash the bike and frank and her will have a cutscene together. The red time bar still needs to be present right up to the end of the fight, unlike some other case files.

i.e. you can still trigger the girl on the motorcycle event on day 3 if you didn't do so on day 2 and then the case files will all close with her riding off on her motorbike, as it would have done on day 2.

They do respawn, but after a couple of does it's piss.... and well worth it for the heavy machine gun.

I killed them once, and that was it for me. Sniper rifles come in handy

[Rossco]

I'm giving this one last shot, if the game screws me over again then I'll munch its face off, zombie style!!!

Gonna try and hammer through it quick as possible to get to the chainsaws part, starting at level 16 which should be interesting!

I've followed you advice and disarmed that jeep a few ties, aswell as being able to rack up a few levels each time from running zomboids over, that machine guncan take down all the bosses in like 3seconds

Glad I read this thread now - Just been plodding away at this between TDU and was enjoying it in a "so-so" kinda way.

Now I've got the stuff about books & Adam nailed down it may be time for a restart

[hugejeans]

Am I right that I can do the scopes if I want ignoring the main cases,power up Frank a bit ,do a restart then follow the main story.
