How To Improve Dead Rising 2

dead rising 2

Capcom’s Dead Rising has become the fastest selling Xbox360 game to date, and quite unsurprisingly, there are already talks about making a sequel. But what sort of improvements would Dead Rising 2 need? Aeropause points out a few things, like the obvious HDTV fix and lack of multiplayer support.

    online co-op / city instead of mall / zombie mode / more wepons (like guns) / ‘make your own save haven (like make your own baracade mode ingame) ect



  2. Justin Says:

    Co-op would be nice on both online and offline. It would bring more of a willing to survive. One gets in trouble the other has to go back to help him out. Also they could do different things. One could rescue one group of people while the other rescues others. I think making the co-op experience different online than normal would be good. Larger in game community like a city instead of mall. Also variuos modes. Like Barricade mode. How many zombie movies have we seen with survivors barricading themselves in. In this mode you would have to make a barricade with other online friends and keep waves and waves of zombies out until help arrives. More guns would make this game better or at least ammo for the guns.



  3. Frankie Says:

    And i hope they keep the same abilities and contentbut just add more. i didnt like when Rockstar’s GTA : San Andreas -> Liberty Stories it seem like it downgraded itself..



  4. Gordo Says:

    I reakon they should make a online like not co op that sounds stupid i rekon werever you are there are lots of other player fighting zombies to but players can fight each other like the players are the recuers or phycos.



  5. L Says:

    A city or town with full enviornment, being able to have multiple safe areas and save anywhere in them like make your own safe area type thing. Be able to bust down doors. in games its always you need this key to open teh door but come on, its a freaken wooden door. Your telling me i can blow apart zombies and wooden barrels ect but i cant bust down this stupid door that ill only enter once? no weap breaks. A steel pipe should not break after 7 or so hits, its a pipe! it wouldnt disapear! neither would the bodies, and enough with the re4 style story with the insects infecting. Stick to the resident evil 1-3 type and keep it a chemical spill would ya? A coop story mode or single story mode would be hella sweet as i dont have online. Maybe a Create your character or something. Damage stays with you and you have to fix it yourself like in metal gear 3 snake eater only more detailed. Better inventory system like the one alone in the darks screenshot has. Id like to see where im keeping my items cause frankly i dont see where i hid those gallons of orange juice and coffee creamer heh heh, add crouching and better jumps. BETTER HAND TO HAND at least dr had it re4 barely had some. But better hand to hand would be nice. Hows about really utalizeing the enviornment cause i saw alot of stuff that was there that i couldnt use, the gun store had tons of shotguns yet i only found 3. what the heck!!!! Hows about being able to take a cart full of weap back to a safe area, and being able to have the survivors actually follow you, cough aaron cough and have them get into a car with you so they dont get run over by convicts that youve killed over 3 times already, I dontlike the idea that i shot and killed the convicts outside and they kept re spawning, no way, they are deader than hell!!! better gore maybe i mean heck yeah it was gory but not enough for me!!!! heheh!!!!being able to light em on fire!!!!! damage to surroundings stays instead of disapearing. being able to bust through areas that are barracaded ie the shops with the metal grates. with a few hammer swings they should have been gone! more more more weapons!!!!!!!



  6. Tryst Says:

    On the singleplayer there should be less escort missions. The A.I could be better.
    I think you should have the city not just the mall but you would have the ability to enter buildings including mall.
    I also think it should be released on Pc as well as the next-gen consoles.
    I think you should be able to create your own character.
    You should also have more than three ingame days to play.(More playing time.
    You should also have to build a barricade in a few missions and the better it is the easier it is to to defend the building you are in.
    I have never played this game cause I’m a PC gamer but i have said my part.



  7. ZaVaZ Says:

    Im a Huge fan of Zombies and Horror movies. So you tell me theres a game comin out where youre trapped in a mall with a Gillion of youre Zombie friends… who do I have to kill. So I bought a 360 and Dead Rising… “Best Game EVER!!!” Though the game had alot of Badassness to it i was kinda let down by How the game lacked some of the Above comments, No multi player either off or online, No “out of the Mall” Experiance, Anything was a weapon but not Everything was a weapon, Character select and/or Creation. I would of loved to seen a 100% compleation game, “I am Carlito” mode where you play either him in the mall or him in the Mexican City where all the… I cant just tell what happens now X).

    Maybe an online mode , “The City that never Dies” Where players connect to a server (~128 max per server) and you must Kill all Zombies, Find the cure, Help the survivors, Create bace camps, and get out alive. you know just a thought.

    I got more but its kinda late and I got to get some Sleep :)



  8. James Says:

    I think it would be nice is there was a character creation, in a bigger area use more vehicles, barricading yourself, some weapons don’t break be able to use two weapons at same time depending on size, a lot of safe areas, not necessarily less rescue but help them some. Not the whole time also smarter AI. No more three day mess, Let it keep going, also a good and bad side. Say you have a choice to help or watch them die, Also you can access any area in the game nothing is off limits. Rag doll effect highly needed when blowing them to hell. Dismemberment more easy to do. Rpg base like actually having to work out to get stronger or using a weapon alot more makes you better at it. I mean your a photographer your not suppose to be grade A zombie killing machine. Give more of a back story to the character you play as. If in city even animals are transformed. There are many different modes so you never get bored. Online play coop mode. Not split screen crap…Also IT would be nice if when you saved people you got bonus things or anything of that nature.. In other words make it as realistic as possible hell even if the character has to piss let him hahah…anyway it was a great game but there is always room for improvement its not like movies are scarring us anymore make a game that makes us feel like were in it and like were the character….Would also be nice if you could add in some more gore scenes and give it that nice creepy zombie touch….come on watch some george A Romero movies and fall in love with the work



  9. Dustin Says:

    I think that melee weapons shouldn’t run out and it would be cool if the pcycos were just roaming around the area instead of one spot where you meet them so you don’t have to kill them right away and you should be able to counter the first attack when zombies grab you, it shouldn’t take a health block instantly



  10. vincent Says:

    I think that you should make the seting in a city(instead of a mall. but you still can go in the mall. also you should be able to go in any building or store you see. Also if your biten you should have a time to get antidote or you become a felsh eater. :) More freaking guns! Also barricade mode kickass! also an online feature that lets you go into a city were the people are still alive. and you have a time limt to find all the things you need and get things for a barricade.and when the timelimt runs out it turn in to a ciematic and you watch all of the people die. also you can do guest of online so its two player online. trow in a verus mode where some people are zombies that can run and controls the ai zombies. and anouter team is humans triing to save their own ass.



  11. morgan Says:

    Co-op is a must be, more guns, and combined weapons like a propane tank and a hose to make a flamethrower.I say keep the mall,but have more zombies.The bosses could be able to be killed by zombies.The molotov cocktail should set the zombies on fire. barricadeing your self will be fun.Character Creation is good idea and online play should be like half a teem in a gun store and the other half in hardware, and you need to get together in one store that is like home base and have amost people go out and kill the zombies and try to bring back survivors.



  12. party boy Says:

    Dead risng one was a real good game and i think there should only be a few improvements. obiouvsly the next game is gonna be in the city so thats one good thing. i agree with what justin said co op. i also think there should be more guns and ammo for them. in every zombie movie the survivers struggle with ammo and guns so i think you should be able to reload and find ammo. this may sound stupid but for online co op mode i think you should be able to be the special forces on some type of team deathmatch. survivers versus the special forces whatever will work i just think the special forces dudes are awesome looking. and character creation would be nice. with the online co op it should be the whole city split up in worlds. like 50 people to one world and take out the 53,000 residents in colorodo. make each world a storyline that continues until all the zombies are dead or untill someone comes up with a plan to wipe them out now that would be rad.



  13. deadrising fanatic Says:

    create your own character in a city where you have an accomplice sort of like shaun of the deaddrive cars,everything and i mean everything is a weapon,2 player mode,different game modes you play as a zombie etc,everything you do affects the end of the game,so realistic you’ll feel it was you in the game,if you die you dont have to start the game all over again,less saving people more killing and you can choose where you start so you all end different thus wanting to play over and over again ADD THESE PLZZ



  14. Ghostsniper Says:

    Same what everyone else says and if any one is intrested BASE IT OFF OF Max Brook’s Zombie Survival Guide and World War Z!



  15. Anuban Says:

    See … as I said on another related DR thread there are tons of ways to make this game better and plenty of room for improvement even if people are saying the first one was great (which I don’t agree with … it was a really solid and good Zombie game but not great imho). Now if they really listen to people and add some of these things people are asking for the next one will probably be the greatest Zombie game ever. Of course that is a big if.



  16. Arrondi Says:

    I agree with most of what has been said here. Online play, Co-op, more guns/ammo pickups, etc. are all great ideas. As well as the saving part. The AI could use some work as well, especially the survivors, seriously, if you’re trapped in a mall full of zombies and a guy comes to save you, are you going to screw around and watch him kill zombies and wait for him to tell you where to go? NO! You’re going to kick some zombie tooshie of your own! So yeah, improved AI would be nice. Next, someone said about something about how they wanted a chemical spill to be blamed instead of insects, its a bit late for that now, the plot has been established. Also, (just throwing this out there) a cool idea for a psychopath would be some crazy amblulance driver with a defibulator (however you spell that… one of those things with the two paddles that they shock you with to revive you…) Also, if this is to take place in an open environment, you’ll need more vehicles, aircraft and watercraft are kinda stupid considering you’d just be able to avoid all of the zombies but if you can think of vehicles that would make sense, throw them in there! Ideas for online could include something like Man vs. Zombie in which a team of humans tries to either escape from or kill a team of zombies, perhaps two different game modes… lol
    Anywho, this game has the potential to be manly if Capcom does decide to create DR2 and even better if they listen to suggestions from people like us! Im happy as long as there is a DR2 period!



  17. party boy Says:

    anuben i didnt say it was the best game ever. im saying it is definatly the best zombie game. you have to admit that there isnt many zombie games that you can eat,make barricades,drive and use anything as a weapon. dont even say resident evil cause compared to this game resident evil is just a piece of waste.



  18. Anuban Says:

    Okay maybe it is the best pure Zombie game but really how many Zombie only games are there. You can’t even count Lad of the Dead and mods for UT2K4. So yeah it is the best pure Zombie game but there is still room for improvement and believe me I am looking forward to DR2 a great deal because I know it will be improved in many ways and I expect the things that did work in DR to still find there way into DR2 so yes the game should be extremely good.



  19. Anuban Says:

    check this out … some REAL competition is coming and they were obviously listening to some of the suggestion people made about Dead Rising … so now DR2 is really going to have to up the ante if that franchise wants to remain the best Zombie game:

    An excerpt from Gamespot:

    “You might not think about team-based online multiplayer going hand-in-hand with “survival horror” games–games like the Resident Evil series that give you only limited resources while pitting you against legions of horrible monsters, often in cramped confines. After all, classic survival horror games are usually single-player experiences because they’re about your character being all alone in a hostile, zombie-filled world. But Turtle Rock Studios, a developer with credits that include Counter-Strike: Condition Zero and the Xbox version of Counter-Strike, is doing just that with Left 4 Dead. This new team-based game for the PC and Xbox 360 pits small teams of humans against “the infected,” which are hordes of ordinary people transformed into mindless killing machines by a mysterious virus that has spread throughout the game’s various environments. We sat down with Turtle Rock’s Michael Booth to get the first details.

    GameSpot: What exactly is Left 4 Dead? We understand that it has survival horror elements, but what else is there to the game? How would you describe it?

    Michael Booth: Left 4 Dead is a cooperative survivor horror game where four survivors must work together to escape a city teeming with an overwhelming number of the infected. If you work together, you have a chance. If you run off on your own, you will die.

    GS: What’s the setting? Is it contemporary America, in the vein of something like Dead Rising? Or is this a postapocalyptic future we’re talking about? What sort of environments will we see?

    MB: Left 4 Dead is set contemporary America. Although we’ve pushed the fiction a bit for the sake of gameplay (such as including the “boss infected”), the basic idea of a catastrophic pandemic and the collapse of civilization makes for great survival horror because it is quite plausible. We wanted our environments to remind you of home–but a horribly changed and tortured version of home.

    The initial four campaigns of Left 4 Dead include both urban areas and rural areas, with lots of dense architecture and challenging landscapes. Each campaign also ends with an elaborate “finale” where the survivors must make a stand while waiting for a rescue vehicle to arrive and take them to apparent safety.

    GS: Who’s who in the game? Who are the main characters, what are they trying to do, and what exactly are the infected?

    MB: The four survivors include Bill, a Vietnam veteran with combat skills that have helped keep him alive; Louis, an assistant manager at a local retail electronics chain store; Zoey, the teenage daughter of a wealthy family; and Francis, who is big, loud, and rough, but always has your back.

    Imagine that you live in a major city during a time when a new and highly virulent strain of the rabies virus emerges and begins spreading rapidly among the human population. Those infected become dangerously psychotic and attack all noninfected on sight. You are one of the lucky few who seem to be immune to the virus, but are trapped in a city teeming with thousands of extremely violent infected. Banding together with a few other survivors, you try to escape.

    GS: It seems safe to say that Left 4 Dead is a class-based game, considering Turtle Rock’s previous work on Counter-Strike: Source, and judging from the early graphic showing the four heroes, each carrying a different type of weapon. What are the classes in the game, and how do they complement one another?

    MB: From the survivor standpoint, Left 4 Dead is a cooperative game in which success is based upon the skills of each member and the team’s ability to work together as a unit. As such, the four survivors have the same weaponry available to them and begin with the same skills.

    On the infected side, however, the characters available to human players (the boomer, smoker, hunter, and tank) have very specific skills … ”

    Now this game sounds like it could be very very HOT! It is definitely something we Zombie fans should keep our eyes on.



  20. Anuban Says:

    I posted some info but is awaiting moderation … here is part of that info on a new game that will definitely force DR2 to be much more than DR was and that is a good thing. We will see if DR will still be thought of as the best Zombie game ever or if DR2 will need to recapture that crown:

    “This new team-based game for the PC and Xbox 360 pits small teams of humans against “the infected,” which are hordes of ordinary people transformed into mindless killing machines by a mysterious virus that has spread throughout the game’s various environments.

  21. Gordo Says:

    somone tell me y co-op would be good caz im lost really lost because its not a co-op kind of game i mean that



  22. Anuban Says:

    It would be cool to take out hordes of Zombies with your friends or at least have that option … like the game I posted about above. If Left 4 Dead is going to have it then I really think DR2 needs to stay competitive and at least offer it as an option in the same way Gears allows people to jump in and out really quickly for some cool co-op fun.



  23. Cheese ball Says:

    dr2 should be set in a small town.kinda like night of the living dead where online gamers can plot in old farmhouses and barricade windows ect ect, havin to venture into town to raid shops for supplies ect ect. gotta include a graveyard! and must be online



  24. Evander Says:

    What if online you can choose to be either a human or a zombie?
    Humans have to try to cure the zombies, save the town, set up barricades. But if they get bitten or scratched they can become a zombie.
    The zombies try to infect the humans but can be cured to go the human side. To make it difficult, if you blow up the brains of a zombie it spreads the disease so surrounding humans could become infected, or say you could get super zombies, which can’t be cured.

    I think it would just add a crazy twist and it would be a continuous battle. There would be something telling you how many humans and zombies (and super zombies) there are, so say you need a certain amount of zombies to do a group action, and a certain humans to do a group action like others were talking about.
    Also if this were to come out on PC, the ability to play with players on the 360 would be great, like they plan to do with Halo@?



  25. skof Says:

    heres my ideas
    1. isabella from the first one should be in it as a co op player
    2.there should diffrent groups of survivers sort of like the cult dudes in the first one but mark them as survivers
    3. have food and wepons run out not have them respawn after leaveing the area so it has a more surviver thing to it
    4. they should have frank as a side charicter allowing you to make a player a witness the zombie atack first hand



  26. Monarky Says:

    I know, I know, I know what they can do with it! FORGET ABOUT IT! It’s a worthless game without any positive merits whatsoever. I say make it so you all can turn the Chainsaw on yourselves! That would get rid of many wasted chunks of worthless flesh!

    After about the 1000th zombie killed they’re all the same anyway. There’s only so many ways you can kill a zombie, which is a misnomer in the first place! Too many of these stupid games that belong back in the freaking fifties!

    But when you only have 3 or 4 good games on a console and only one killer ap exclusive, I guess your left with slim pickings!

    What a freaking waste of time! LOL

    Even X360 has better playing games than this. Bio Shock will be a million times better and maybe even another ap so you’ll have two! heehee



  27. Arrondi Says:

    One problem with non-respawning items, if they were to do that they’d have to jack up the number of hits, BIG TIME! Although, they should do that anyway, a freaking lead pipe isn’t going to break after just a few hits, come to think of it, it probably wouldn’t break at all considering you’re only beating decaying bags of bones. I guess they couldn’t really make it completely realistic because you could pretty much just have one or two lead pipes, some food, Adam’s Chainsaws and the book powerups and you’d be able to finish the game with relative ease. Next, to respond to the previous post. This guy is obviously some Nintendo or Sony fanboy who can’t accept the manliness of the Xbox 360. Dead Rising may be part of a genre that has been done before but it’s innovative in many ways, 90% of the people I talk to love Dead Rising and would LOVE to see a sequel. Although he does make a point concerning the lack of quality games for 360. He exaggerated a bit though, given his biased opinion of Dead Rising, he didn’t include that in the greatest 360 games. Yes, there’s Gears of War, a truly manly game. And then there’s 2006 Game of the Year, Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion. Yeah, maybe Oblivion isn’t going to be exclusive for much longer, but it had to be great on PC and 360 for a PS3 adaptation. You may be able to add Cold Planet to this list too, it just came out so I haven’t had a chance to play it yet. That said, I have to say it would be nice to have some more quality titles though… Anywho, just to make a point, unless I’m completely wrong and this guy isn’t a gamer at all he must be a PS3 or Wii fanboy. Sooo, those game library’s suck just as much if not more! PS3’s greatest games: Resistance. Everything else has been done before! Wii’s greatest games: WHO CARES ABOUT THE WII?! It’s going to lose it’s novelty and everyone will be rushing out to trade it in while it still has some value and hope that they can get some money to put towards a PS3 or Xbox 360! Unless you already have one of those and a Wii, I guess its a good supporting system to a more powerful one. The way I see it, Twilight Princess is the only thing the Wii has going for it.

    All that said, BRING ON DEAD RISING 2!!!! WOOT!



  28. Evander Says:

    My favroite weapon was putting the frying pan on the stove and holding it to their faces. :)
    That I can understand breaking, like the handle, or getting cold, but not lead pipes, a chainsaw or the katana. The guns I do understand because if you run out of ammo you can just hit them with it and then it loses durability, but it also makes more sense to just switch to an actual melee weapon until you get more ammo.

    Like someone else said it should be longer, not just 3 days, but not so long that killing all the zombies and trying to complete goals becomes tedious. It should be easy to jump into and hard to get away from with constant action and something to do, that’s what makes it great.
    As for the poster above Arrandi, the best way to deal with it is just ignore those types of meaningless posts.

    xbox360 is crap nintendo rules im wearing my mums gstring i love men mario makes me hard i got a massive hardon



  30. Gordo Says:

    ok if thats wat gets u off but dont bag xbox bitch



  31. Dead Rising Rules Says:

    I think Coop multiplayer should have the option of playing the sp dead rising missions together with 2 or more people or play a new set of coop missions, but still in the mall.

    For balance, the zombies are like night ones during the day: and at night they should be harder than the night ones in sp. Same goes with bosses, harder. Or I can see it right now, your friend and yourself, going through the mall bashing zombies over the head would take like 2 seconds.

    You should be able to choose who you are, Id say Frank, Brad, and maybe the other main people or maybe even to choose from survivors and Phychopaths.

    What would be a nice feature for coop is if lets say you and your friend playing together could do wicked moves which requires both of you to use. E.g. You flip your friend foward and he lands on a group of zombies and flattens them. Or you stand back to back in a huge mob of zombies, hitting them from both sides. Imagine if you could mug a zombie? Knock him on the floor and kick seven bells outta him. Some coop moves could be used to get to high or certain places, with a boost or a throw of your friend.



  32. vincent Says:

    Hey dead rising ruels kid why the hell would they put you into a mall again. They already did that and it would be very gay if they did it again



  33. Dead Rising Rules Says:

    I meant it for Dead Rising, have coop like that



  34. frank west aka jack b Says:

    co op would rock but in new york or london better still multi choice citys all the capitalss of main citys and differnt character 4 each city streets full of zombies but not online too many people would be in the citys co op would be awsome so i could play wid my mate jack and sam ps only on xbox 360 ps3 is crap



  35. nathanrandom Says:

    dead rising was an amazing game but they should have made it a bit like a grand theft auto game were you start off, a bit like this, come home from a holiday and when you get home you go to bed and get woken up by a scream in the street you look to see no 1 there but turn on the tv to find all chanels with the same show viewing ‘the news’ and there is a man telling you about the disaster and tells you how to defeat the zombies and you have a choice of were to start off eg, go to save 5 best friends, girl friend brother and sister mam and dad (reccomended best friends because theres 5 of them) and you can drive cars motobikes and fly planes. you should get missions on this 1 but by you friends and family if they are still alive and you should get money to buy stuff of tight shop keepers that dont want you to help them like ‘cleaatus’ of dead rising 1 and ’sean’ the shops have to b broken into instead of just beeing able to open the door and you should b able to colect weapons and take them bak to your house were your 5 friends will be and after a while of gaining experience points in the field of fighting and training you should be able to make your car beter and your weapons stronger and become stronger yourself. in dead rising 2 you should definetly be able to go around the city and a mall and be able to eat and do loads of realistic things like get a girlfriend if you want 1 and make love to her and kiss her and give her preasants and make more m8s by saving them and asking them to follow you to your base (house) and be able to run at the same time as you eat and b able to find a trolly and fill it with things to eat and drink for you and your friends that are staying in the house. you should be able to get your friends to follow you by recruiting them in the house but only hav a limit to tem people with you on a adventure. and last of all you should be able to pick up anything you want if you are strong enough that is. oh and this is definetly the last thing you should be able to continue messing after you complete the game 100%.



  36. a_spec Says:

    I believe that there should be more weapons, but not too many more – i think instead of adding more guns, they should focus on making the environment more interactive, being able to pick up everything in the environment – priorities people. the focus of the game is supposed to be melee combat, not an everyday run-gun shooter. also, on the topic of weapons, make all weapons have 2 different attack modes – not two different modes that do the same amount of damage. and apply that to all weapons. i mean, even with guns, you should be able to do something else, like pistol whip or something once it runs out of ammo as opposed to it simply breaking and disappearing – you should also pick up ammo, not another one of the same gun – it doesnt make sense that he can walk around with 13 machine guns on his back. also, metal weapons shouldnt break – they should get mangled and damaged, but not break, unless we are talking about a coat hanger – pipes dont break easily. QAn improve inventory system would be nice, but I dont want it to change too much – i like it the way it is, but it oculd be a little more realistic, like it could be similar to the RE4 inventory, or even a version of the original R.E. inventory, with the slots. I stil want to be able to carry a bunch of different weapons, but maybe in a different manner.

    A choice of multiple characters would be nice – i must admit i love frank west, hes a champ, but I tihnk it would be nice to get a few different characters who have different abilities – i dont want it to turn into resident evil outbreak though – thats the problem i can see happening with a co-op mode. also, the ai characters should have inventories as well, but not quite as extensive as franks – it would be cool to be able to run around with a sidekick who acted like ur pack horse :P

    On the topic of ai, i think that they should be able to defend themselves to a degree, depending on the type of character they are. For instance, if they are scared, you should be able to tell them to take cover or something like that. Also, you should be able to put anyone in a trolleyif they are hurt – would make the “injured person” missions so much easier. and they would act as a kind of weapon too :P

    with regards to the environment, i think a city would be nice, but in the next one it shouldnt be a huge city – it should be in a small town, like raccoon city, or even willemette – i dont care, but the highrise buildings should be the next step up – it should be a progression from small, enclosed environment, to medium environment, then huge environment – the huge one could be a rip-off of new york or something. that would be awesome, but i want the middle ground. or, you could even make the huge environment one the online mode. someone made up the title “the city that never dies” and i like that – could work brilliantly with an online mode.

    with regards to co-op – i think that there should be an option for system link, online, and split screen – the split screen would be hard to code, because of the environments in question (being able to go anywhere they want) but its possible considering th 360 has mutliple cores, i would think thats at least possible.

    cant think of much more to say.



  37. Chaz Says:

    In other words you want a zombie mod for gta. Go search for one instead of plauging dr2 with rubbish.



  38. Frankie Says:

    oh and also please, please, have weather effects. especialy like in the forest at night in “Gears of War” in the pouring rain, and dont know what could ambush you in a dark park forest or graveyard. i know im old-fashion still love old cemeteries even tho the ones in the ground wont come out. hehe make it like “The Return of the Living Dead”



  39. Billup Says:

    definetely co op… a ZERO OUTFIT!!! make the mega buster charge up. possibly even a protoman outfit. im all about the mega man easter eggs. i like the experience points system, but not the saving. but thats ok. i just want the game to keep its replay value up like the first.

    Stuff like buying things from shops and flying planes and boats and the like are quite possibly the most idiotic idea ever… No offense or anything, they’re good ideas for something like GTA but in Dead Rising they’re a tad unethical. The idea behind Dead Rising is that a location (Willamette Mall in DR1) is overrun with a horde of zombies, if you could fly planes and drive boats then you’d be able to avoid the zombies and that would ruin the entire point of the game. Secondly, if an area is infested with zombies, do you really think that shopkeepers would be waiting around in their stores for you to come buy something?! Most of them would die in a matter of minutes, just like, oh, i don’t know, THE SURVIVORS THAT POSSESS THE MOST IDIOTIC AI I HAVE EVER SEEN! They get attacked by a zombie and rather then fight their way free, all you hear is, “FRAAAAANK!!!” GOD DAMMIT, PULL YOUR OWN WAIT! Frank is busy enough fighting the zombies that are trying to eat his brains!!! I already posted a while ago so i won’t repeat myself.



  41. partyboy Says:

    Anubin i agree with what you said on number 18. there is room for in improvement…i never thought of it that way. it is the best zombie game but there is things they can add to improve it so you dont lose interest in a month..lol



  42. Jamie Says:

    A create your own character would be sweet, i think it would be better in a full town, maybe willamette or even do a prequel in santa cabeza, Frank should be in the game if it is set in willamette, maybe he could be like otis was in DR1. except less annoying and at the end of the game you have to kill him, if the game is set in santa cabeza then you should be able to play the game as a younger carlito trying to get out of there rescuing his sister, there should be more weapons available to use aswell, the swat shouldnt be trying to kill you as they might need your help later in the game, e.g some missions you have to rescue certain swat members, the AI of the survivors should be alot better, they shouldnt let themselves get surrounded by zombies even though you have given them a blade or a sub machine gun, the idea of building your own safe house could be extended to building your own city out of survivors like in George A Romeros Land Of The Dead, this could be really good as you could build it as large as you want and you can place certain survivors in charge of the security and place others in different types of jobs, not rescuing the right people could have an effect on your city for example you might need someone who can put the electricity or plumbing back into your city. without these other people could leave the safe haven and never be seen again. there are endless possibilitys with this game, at the end of the day were all gonna have to wait and see what capcom comes up with



  43. Fox mulder Says:

    your guy should be an FBI agent trying to solve why the heck zombies are attacking a town. it would make it much better. you can call me wierd but it would be freakin awesome.



  44. Ayersy Says:

    I say to keep it as down to earth as possible, and big…but on a small scale.

    For those of you who don’t know, Dead Rising is NOT GTA.

    It’s not even really a sand box kinda game, its a game with a plot that just happens to be very leniant with the way in which it lets you do things.

    I say DR2 should be in a small town (Willamette…), which could be a bit bigger than the mall, but not huge.

    If the place was San Andreas size, things would get very boring…very quickly.

    Weapons should break, enough moaning about iron bars breaking, you do realise that if you use anything long enough with force…it’ll break? Get used to it.

    Anyway, suggestion time.

    Barricading buildings would be awesome.
    Zombies should be able to break through windows and doors, and obviously barricades.

    Which brings me onto my next point, multiplayer. Anyone who has unlocked the infinity mode on DR will know what I am on about. Keep it like infinity mode (Except make your life go down slower.), and just have a server with lots of people playing at once. It’s that simple. That way people can choose to work together, kill each other for food and weapons, or just ignore each other. It’d bring a whole aspect of trust, tactics and planning into the game, and a whole load of freedom, rather than just forcing players into co-op style play.

    No over the top weapons like super cars with rockets on.

    Keep it a survival game, with a normal guy using normal weapons to try and live. Far more fun.

    Anyone else should just go and play GTA.



  45. Anuban Says:

    sounds like some good ideas on this thread. Hopefully Capcom will use some of them and DR2 will be an amazing game. I liked DR but I wanted to like it even more but the save system and the way you use the guns just didn’t feel comfortable for me. Still though it is a really fun game in doses.



  46. JOBE95 Says:

    what if you made the dead rising 2 game with co-op and everything then made a MMORPG(i havnt seen a zombie one before but i bet it would make tones of money with all the zombie fans out there) you could customize your characters apearance and everything and it could be set in several city hubs where you can get missions from the goverment and other organizations to help secure humanitys survival or destroy it and you would get paid for your work and if you save people on the way you get more.this money could be used to buy mods for ur guns and equipment and buy clothes and you could buy armour to protect you to some degree,like body armour for bullet protection and somthing for axe protection ect. ect. would only protect from somthing spacific but protection is protection and of course this would be worn under clothes so no one needs to worry about what looks cool but on the down side zombies could still tear through it like a sheet of paper as they bite and tear you apart and dont use weapons(bosses should be able to use weapons though like advanced zombies or somthing). this is only a rough idea but it would be cool.



  47. Chris Says:

    dead rising should have a beter gun choice and easier aiming.also it should let you create a character and an occupatoin lik if you are cop you have a gun or if you are a butcher you have a cleaver and lastley the setting should be in a town where it has a big population and
    lots of stores to take stuff from.some of the other poeple i talk to say there should be akind of gta gameplay but it sould stay the same like the first deadrising.



  48. Bondo Says:

    multiplayer online and offline thats all i care about i just want F***ING MULTIPLAYER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



  49. AllesIstDieSekte Says:

    OMG you still dont get it though, it says in the real ending, there are 50 children that have the virus and have been spread out into 50 states. so its got to take it in that direction, not no before, its got to be after. NO im not trying to make it a GTA b/c i could care less about that game nor do i like it. they have the children in cities all across the US as it showed, they were all spread out as it showed the dots OF the infected across the USA ( and yes, i have to say that again, because some people cant put it in thier heads) So it has to be something big, but i dont think the SF will be on your team. There is no way that could happen and i dont think it will make up for that, they try to clean up thier own mess. You just need more things, b/c when the breakout occurs then its not going to be like DR1, remember we are done with willamete, so it is done with so we got to carry on with the rest of the story, not what happend before, or it would be called DeadRisingTheBeginning. You shouldnt just have some kind of peice of crap car either just to run them over, you need to put stuff like metal plating, knives and all sorts of things you can nail on there. but what you can put on is what you find outside.



  50. JOBE95 Says:

    RELOADS, i cant stress enough how much reloads affect games, for zombie games there should be reloads as it adds to the fear conntent of the game for instance playing dead rising i found that useing guns on the zombies was too easy and easly boring but if reloads are intraduced it would make teh overall game play that much better as players dnt run around collecting the same guns all the time but collect maybe 2 of the same and reload them when needed like 17 bullets a clip max(handgun) and you could pick up clips is well, also the ability to get better in specific weapons instead of the same through out the whole lvling up( so gun actions would be the same but you could do special moves with them as you keep using them and after a while you can use twin handguns and learn moves with them) its just a bit boring now, i definetly wouldnt buy dead rising 2 if the lvling up wasnt alot better, sort of like world of warcraft you use a certain weapon and you would get better with it, using it more smoothly. but the the guns aim would be more presice and reloads would be more smoother and faster, or you could choose buy adding points to certain areas like: handgun aim, handgun reload,(or even handgun modifying success)axe handeling(your skill with the axe makes it easyer to swing and adds another combo so instead of just 3 successive attacks there is another 1 added to the end to make 4)but that doesnt matter as much as the RELOADS god i hate noclip games suck so much i bet you most people agree with me that reloads make a zombie game so much better, having to watch your ammo to see when you need to reload next instead of just aiming at zombies and shooting until your so bored of guns you would rather commit suicide than play the game any more. so BRING IN THE RELOADS CAPCOM(and put in a noclip cheet for the few who like boring games they will always win at).



  51. Frank West, Zombie Genocider Says:

    if u did have an online mode with zombie team vs human team no matter how many zombies there r humans r gonna kick ass. So heres an idea, zombie team vs human team, human team gets weapons, health and the like and zombies get upgrades like moving faster, skills (like maybe leaping 4 a human instead of limping after them), and health regenaration.
    i think this would make online play versus matches alot more challenging, interesting and people will actually WANT to b zombies.



  52. Dead Rising Rules Says:

    I hope in Dead Rising 2 that Frank West is stil with us, I like Frank, hes a cool charecter and kind of came a part of the game which made Dead Rising – Dead Rising lol

    Who thinks he will be in it? Or knows…?



  53. chris Says:

    i think it should start in a suburban area and have a home and upgrade it like barracades, car, ect. and can go to city’s and look threw houses. think i am legend.

    have gangs and co-op.

    be able to be a zombie or get infected.

    more weapons.

    and more abilities.



  54. brad Says:

    i think that there should be more moves instead of hand to hand moves you should have more moves with melee weapons and guns also it would be great if you could tie a knife or edged weapon to your shotgun or rifle so if you want to stick the bags of bones to your bayonnet they will stick to your gun and you would be able to plug it with lead without troubles.



  55. brad Says:

    just like what chris said you can own a home and upgrade but it would also be cool if you can have a wepon cache down in the cellar and if its going to be a free roam game dont load when you enter a building it gets fairly annoying but it could work for cutscenes. like i said that you can tie things on you gun you should also tie a flashlight under your barrel the rocket launchers like off of deadrising i was so disapointed when you couldnt use it and you can attach a scope on your gun like socom i am hoping to play deadrising 2 and if you see this inform a friend who works at capcom



  56. G-rac_Da_Punk Says:

    have an online/co-op mode with various storylines (cases) and let players either pick from a varied cast or create characters on their own and run around a city completing these cases together one person hosts and the other people join and start together then people can leave and someone else can join and take over their character or start their own at level one, you could have various sets of these and maybe when you finish the first city set of misions you can keep your character for a second city map, with different quests etc to play with other players who have finished the first or this sort of thing could be included in an expansion pack of some sort if they want to squeeze more money out of it but definately agree with customizeable hideout sort of thing is a must also possibly a slightly more comprehensive statistics section ie – have like levels of different things that you had to get magazines for in the original one similar to your damage speed and health scores, a better aiming system maybe the ability to move in first person shooting mode or something similar, the ability to upgrade or “craft” weapons kitchen knife tied tightly to the end of a shotgun as bayonet for a combined ranged melee attack, and possibly some dodgy characters who can sell you someparticularly juicy hard to find stolen items that you would find very hard to get your hands on like some high quality assault weaponry or the like.



  57. G-rac_Da_Punk Says:

    just a side note perhaps for the multiplayer mode maybe there should be a map editor for the new milenium like arcanum except cooler I mean see what people have done with wc3 frozen throne the custom maps thing is huge and with such a cool orginal game like dead rising it could only be even better



  58. ZL Says:

    I don’t particularly like the whole city idea everyone seems to think is so great. I would prefer something that didn’t take away from the games feel like a theme park.



  59. jake mitchin Says:

    i agree with everything said …would be great to see such a brilliant title on both 360 and ps3



  60. Anuban Says:

    A theme park the size of Disneyworld would be a cool idea ZL. The city theme is kind of overused so something different would be nice. Land of the Dead (the worst zombie game ever made) already did the city thing. Maybe you they could do DR2 on a large cruise ship (sorta like the Ghost Ship movie) … I think that would work well and would be very different from the norm.



  61. Kevekev Says:

    to be brief here is what i hate about DEAD RISING.
    1. Stupid survivors like Aaron(Moron more like), KINDELL(The shotgun mad lunatic, geez get it off him quick before he kills us), RONALD(come on shut up about food before i ram some down your throat so you choke) and of course OTIS(brrr brrrr every time you carry someone, geez shut up will you. Thank god you can kill him first in Unlimited mode).
    2. Overtime mode only 24 hours, boo why not 48 so i could get the 5 day achievement.
    3. 7 Day survivor achievement, boxers, what the hell is that for 14 hours plus how about a rocket launcher or an even a grenade launcher, who the hell wants boxers?
    4. Inability to play as more than FRANK WEST, come on why not isabella, Brad, Jessie or even Carlito?

    Anyway when they do sequel(i so so hope they do) i want it to be like so.
    1. more weapons especially better power guns or launchers.
    2. Ability to play with any of 4 to 6 characters like you can in the RESIDENT EVIL games.
    3. Start of in the city
    4. The Story leads you to the Amusement park where you find out a little about the outbreak.
    5. You then have to go to the mall to get the full story and take out the bad guy/lady, why just 1 why not 2.
    6. Ability to fly around in short distances in own mini helicopter like the military use. I mean can you imagine blowing away a zombie from an helicopter?
    7. Ability maybe to change within characters maybe throughout the game, well it would give you a real challenge.Like say you start as say a guy or lady reporter but once you at the park then you switch between 2 characters, and then maybe in the mall 3, why not it been done in other games before.
    8. More intelligent survivors who actually are already armed when you rescue them.
    9. maybe the 6 endings again, but for all of the different characters?



  62. Matthew Martin Says:

    I Think They Shood Make It Like..
    Start That The Same Man From Dead Rising 1 Hears About Another Town In The Middle Of Nowhere Is Zombiefied.. The Police Dont Know Yet.. Pupils Are Stuck In A High Scott People Are Stuck In There Homes..
    Maybe First He Should End Up Crashing His Car Near There.. When Going To Find A Repairshop He Finds Himself Stuck In the Middle Of Nowhere.. He Might First Go To A School.. Houses.. Vhurch.. Shops.. A Swimming Pool.. And Maybe A Roller Coaster Park To Save People That Are Still Alive.. And Maybe Even A Few Cars.. Make It About The Size Of One Island From GTA3 So Its Not A City Sized Place!



  63. mikey 0 Says:

    what the new dead rising should have…
    1. more locations to rescue players online and A.I
    2. Animals! Tons of animals like bears, horses, rhinos and tons more that like escape from the zoo and rip the zombies to shreds.
    3. Have 100s, 1000s, of players that u can knock out / kill and offer their living/lifeless bodies to the zombies, hang them on the ceiling of a house and watch them scream to death.
    4. create your own character
    5. Imprison zombies in cages and then put humans in there
    6. Make your own barrackade
    7. make zombies have babies
    8. make nuclear weapons!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    ill put some more lat’r



  64. brad Says:

    it would be awesome if you can dual wield, edged weapons,pistols submachine gun or any short weapon.there should also be a rage meter like if you kill enough zombies your rage meter goes up and you can do finishers on zombies. please be able to customize your vehicle it would be rad.



  65. Sharkz Says:

    4 Player Splits Screen. Purely optional for those that don’t want it. But great fun for groups of friends with a 360. Just don’t make the mistake GTA:San Andreas did where the players shared the same screen as that was terrible



  66. gangster Says:

    the first one is cool the way it is. on the second one they should make a bigger location and more weapons



  67. Denny AJD Says:

    The best game in gaming history!

    Improvement? For this amazing games? I think i have some… although, not far from the others.

    -Bigger mall, more store! And give us chance to walk to the outside.
    -more weapon: sprays (pepper sprays, paint)- More type of shotgun and handguns – More sub machine gun and heavy 50 cal – Crossbow-sling shot – M60 machine gun – Slippery oil.
    -firearm needs ammo, firearms cannot wear off
    -Smarter survivor who can follow Frank without get stuck on walls, fence etc
    -better saving methods, at least give 2 slots for saving



  68. Tyler Says:

    HAVE FRANK BE A SIDE CHRACTER then you create yourself. Have you be in the city and the zombie guys come kill your friends and family then woohoo frank and iabella come along and help you save chicago or new york or wereevr the hell it is



  69. Tyler Says:

    I like the chicago idea persanally because its my homtown or miami would be nice



  70. Tyler Says:

    brad you need driver parralel lines



  71. Tyler Says:

    mikey your mentel



  72. tommo Says:

    i think dead rising should be a multi player game and be based on the same town and it should be out side the mall and in side so you can go all over the city and have more charicters and so you can drive in cars and brad and jessie should come back in the story and more weopons



  73. Denny AJD Says:

    More inputs… Please Capcom Guys, read these fun inputs. ;)

    -Conversation with Voice, not just a small text. Just like “Destroy All Human 2″.

    -Can explore inside and outside mall.

    -Should be a huge gun store outside the mall with everything in it. like grenade, heavy machine gun, lever action rifle, pump action shotgun, double barrel shotgun, 22 cal rifle or pistol, m-16 rifle, ak-47, rocket launcher or even AIR RIFLE, BB guns and harmless Airsoft Guns!

    -More free time! So player can really explore the mall or small town.

    -Less ‘Loading’ moment, quite annoying though.

    -Some aggresive surivors who loves kills Zombie are needed. So, players can actually working each other with them. Like Police survivors, soldiers or even a marshall art masters.

    -More space to save

    -Firearm uses bullets and shells, players do not need to bring more than 1 shotgun at a time

    -more store, more stuff for Frank to mess with although they’re useless. it’s fun to use useless water gun for example.

    -More experiment like cooking, filled water gun with juice that can hurt Zombies or hated or loved by Zombies. Yup, flame thrower with tank and hose. Really nice!
    Make your own super Bomb by mixed up certain ingedients. Bombs have 3 types, Incendairy, Frag or just a big blast.

    -More sports goods such as in-line-skate, Tennis Racket, Tennis Net (to barricade Zombies).

    -military Stuff such as Body armour, Knee Pad (absorb drop impact), Water canteen (to store up to 3 un mixed Juices), Back Pack (to store larger ammount of food), Tatical vest with body armour with pouches which can store more Ammo and Grenades. Rope to tied up a group of zombies or tied 2 of them so they get stuck if passing a tree or pilar.

    -Jessie is back and please load her with more Aggresive attitude, yum…

    -Frank can play video games

    -Add some Slippery soap or oil, so Zombies fall everytime they tried to walk when we pour it on the floor.



  74. justin Says:

    Maby first person and sensors on the feet and hands so you could do whatever was phisically possible for you!!
    Totally cool ness like remotes in the hands and slip on feet sensors for kicking their undead butts!!! IT WOULD ROCK!!! Sorta like Wii you know? and mabey a body sensor or somthing so you can actually dodge and stuff! along with character creation you could put yourself in the action!Double weapon weilding too.OR mabey third person or switch views! ya, deffinitly switch veiws!



  75. J.K. Says:

    In case any bodys interested……….
    Alot of you said a city, instead of just a mall, well, me and my best friend have been working on a game. So far there are about 400+ weapons, for those who said more weapons. There is 60+ guns, 4 characters (each unique) and plans for an island, a city, a war (against humans and zombies), a hospital and a mall. There is also a ridiculous amount of skills, including build on skills (like hammer throw is required for……. Actually its not requried for anything……..)
    Any way, this project is huge, I just hope consoles can hold it when I’m older…… Just sayin’, for the future…… Oh, and theres multiplayer. And more surivivors/phsychos. Plus cameras are weapons as well as photo equitment (which you need to pass the game…….)
    So if anyones interested, I’ll have a website for the game soon.



  76. J.K. Says:

    P.S. Theres also some hardcore people in it, and real reactions, not like “Watch it”, more like “WHAT THE F**K IS YOU’RE PROBLEM!?”
    P.P.S. Unluckily theres not ammo, just guns…… I was just looking at the survivors list. 70+ Surivors, 50
    + phsychos. And theres 2 martial arts masters! YaY!



  77. J.K. Says:

    And theres a boat. Forgot about that, theres a boat. And a prison. The prisons small though. And cars are better, though theres only 7, there better.



  78. the idiot Says:

    you should make the hospital verry creepy and scary eg flikering lights crys from down the coridoors seeing people walking past you like there brainwashed jumping out zombies



  79. Clay Says:

    Save mode in pause screen. I hate how you have to find a place to save your game.



  80. JZ Says:

    Do any of you people get why the save system is the way it is? It is to keep the game interesting instead of saving every time you encounter a boss or a group of zombies. The save system is perfect. It is what makes the game so great. It creates suspense for people who are new to the game. A more challenging game is a good one. If you suck at survival then why would you even have this game. I have it and once you are good then the save system is not that challenging. Once you get better at the game than you will be able to survive more and if you cannot survive then rent games and try them before you buy them. My game is starting to not work anymore and I am pissed off because Dead Rising is the best game I have ever played. Hands down.



  81. JZ Says:

    To add on to my first post the new game should have:

    Better A.I.
    More themes.
    More Food
    More Clothes
    More survivors and psychos.
    A Theme Park like Disney or a small rural town. I also like the idea of starting off with Isabella and Frank leaving Willamette and they encounter the town of Denver, Colorado and tell the people about the instance in Willamette. Then after about 25 years Frank’s potion wears off and infects Isabelle in Disney world while they are on vacation and “The Gamer” is Franks and Isabelle’s son and has to fight his way through hordes of zombie’s in Walt Disney World.



  82. kevkev Says:

    How about a save mode in Unlimited mode so you can create a real crazy achievement of 30 day survivor, but you can only save it like every 3 days. The story has to be bigger than just the 72 hour mode as well, how about a 120 hour mode so you now got to complete 5 day survivor, and then make overtime mode a full 48 hours. Leave on some of the achievements but put onb some new ones like so.
    ZOMBIE ULTIMATE GENOCIDER – Kill 100,000 zombies, i mean i can kill close to that on 72 hour mode if i say to hell with the cases and the survivors.
    SADIST – Kill 50 survivors, how about that for a new one. If in the new game they are going to be wiser and more tough, lets get an achievemnet for killing them too.
    30 DAY SURVIVOR – Survive for 30 days, with option to save only every 3 to 5 days, now that would be cool. When i did the 7 day survivor, i was bored out of my mind after 5 days of gameplay(10 Hours of normal time) i just kept inb the security for 24 hours to do the indoorsman achievement and just topped up his health as i watched a film on my laptop through the last 4 boring hours.
    HUMAN KILLER – Kill 50 people as a zombie, man would this be a cool thing to do, especially if you rip them apart and so on.
    MASTER OF ARMS – Use 50 different weapons in the game on zombies. Can you imagine trying to kill a zombie with one of those special books, now that would be laughable.



  83. zombie killer Says:

    how about you make it fo the wii sure graphics are crapy but it would be fun to punch,wack,shoot,and throw stuff with the nunchuk and wii controler.



  84. Ian Giribaldi Says:

    i didn’t really think there was anything wrong with it. I think they should start the sequel with the exact same charactures but expand the playing field. make it as big as cyrodel is in oblivion. and that online thing dos’t sound so bad. and also release some downloadable content for it like new weapons, areas, and characture models.



  85. niall264 Says:

    Needs to be able to play two player mode,needs to be three times longer than the last dead rising because it was really SHORT!!!and twice as many people in the city full of zombies with alot more weapons and cars…



  86. Gareth Says:

    The city is a good idea as there would be muliple environments for Frank (or somebody new) to tackle such as schools, hospitals, malls, suburban areas and sports arenas. Plus you could throw zombies off of skyscrapers! Weapon combinations such as aerosol cans and lighters! Greater variety of vehicles like dirtbikes and ATVs. More save points! Better AI and greater variety of zombies as the same ones kept popping up in DR.



  87. DEADRISNGGUY Says:

    Now I think most definettly of all things… the place. Now I wouldn’t mind a hack and slash in a prison. Come on think about it! Any of you played the suffering? Thats wat im thinking of. Yes, and coop would be fantastic! Easy achievements! Not too easy but you know what I meen. And don’t make all achievements 20 gamerpoints I meen I get as much points for killing 1000 zombies as I do for 58000? Come on!



  88. nathan Says:

    creat your own person online co-op and offline better grafics better achievements



  89. Zombie Hunter Says:

    In the city these are the places were you can go
    MALL!!
    POLICE STATION!!!
    SHOPS!!!
    SCHOOLS!!!
    HOSPITALS!!!
    AIRPORT!!!
    TRAIN STATION!!!
    HOUSES!!!
    CHURCHS!!!
    DOCKS!!!
    BARBERS!!!

    Amount of people to save=102
    Amount of zombies=86,896



  90. Zombir Hunter Says:

    Dead Rising 2 better not be in a theme park!!!that would be just fu****g g*y,it would be so SH**!!!it would better if it was in a city…not in a fu****g theme park!!!And hopefully if its going to be like the start of dead rising 1 you can actually fu****g save the people this time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



  91. zombies aye? Says:

    i think that dead rising should be set outside the mall in the town,and it should be set befor the first one and should have the first bit with the zombies just coming out then round about half way the helecopter with frank in it should come past in the sky n u could go to ere the lady falls off the roof and c all the things that happened in the frist cinimatic of dead rising and the hellcopter photo thingy.

    near the start you should have to war everyone u know on a map that its going to happen cause you somehow find out.and just befor the lady is on the roof or the dude is in the car you should get a chance to talk to them bout the zombies n stuff.

    also you should be in a school going to hide out in it and then try to escape in a schoolbus then the schoolbus gets tipped by zombies n u have to escape from it.

    also you should be driving the school bus,and the last thing you see befor it gets tipped is the gas station blowing up XD

    and yeah also more weapons and zombie animals and stuff

    and be able to save anytime

    and there should be a few outcomes when compleating the game like getting into the mall and noone being left in it alive(including zombies),and being baricadded in a house with other survivors ,or escaping the city and whatever you do should affect witch one u get XD,and the one where you escape the city there should be a closing sceen there shuld be a road sign saying racoon city blah blah balh miles west or whatever lol

    oh what else could there b XD

    you should be able to drive any car and there should be psycopaths defnding their holmes

    and you should be able to enter every single building

    and no time limit it should be when you have got every objective u need to get the ending you get it and you should be able to chose if you want to go straght away or still explore for a while

    and army soldiers should be at the edges of the streets but no in the city and all the ones that are should be zombies.

    god iv went on for a bit

    oh n some of the characters you see in the mall in the first one you should see going to the mall at the start of the second one n when u talk tot hem they should say that and if its too much to let the characters in the mall in the second one cause they have the rest of the town it should be barricaded by the army aswell

    and there should be thousands more weapons than the first one and all the bodies of dead zombies and people should stay where they died instead of disapearing after a while.

    i have more but i think ill leave it there lol



  92. Josh Says:

    more skillz?



  93. majorzero Says:

    hey i love idea of DR2 with co-op but 2 many peolp if it was 4 online so i think it should have like only 30 people on the map and there should be more guns in this game and ammo pick ups u know i love that.

    also i think that the idea of chararther creation would be nice????? make him a normal person or police or military and para-medicks type stuff



  94. michael Says:

    they should put better items like a flame thrower and beter aiming



  95. The Wicker Man Says:

    I thought it was kinda hard to manage time. You would go to one side of the mall to do a task then boom ur stuck doing another task(running into another). I thought the boss were hard, cuz of the aiming. I thought the aiming was the hardest Ever. Im thinking, they should make it where ur gun kinda aims in the direction the enemy is in.

    I remembered with the people in the jeep it was so hard, I only beat it 1 time using the sword. They hit a tree and it only took 2 slashes to kill the gunner and driver. I didn tlike it when u got hit u had to start over on aiming. Just dont make the boss scenes so hard.



  96. David Says:

    I think they should put a co-op play (as everyone says). But another thig, they should impruve the boss fight. In DR1 they suck. You could punch them 2 or 3 times and they fall… Hmmm, that is a big bug! :0
    It will be nice too if they put a city insted of a mall, bigger, larger… Nicer. More zombies would be good…
    The rest is PERFECT.
    P.S. CAPCOM make an extraordinary game! It is (for me) the best game ever!! But it could be impruve! I give it a: 9.99999999999/10 :)



  97. The Wicker Man Says:

    I love the feeling in that game :-) .



  98. J-B Says:

    i thinck that the guys at capcom should most definantly add a sys link mode and maybe a xbox live mode with something like 10 players and yes a bigger map more boss’s and yes a way larger variety of weapons (mainly guns). beacause i would hae really like to have that 50. cal sniper rifle that carlito shoots at you with!…..imagine it that gun blow like 10 sombies at once if they were single file :O



  99. mat Says:

    more weapons more gore more levels multilayer so you can kill with a buddy,online play,flamethrowers[lighter and deodorant can] a pogo stick from kids shop.customization for the guy you play as. toilet brush out the toilets i think you should be able to grab a zombie and jam his/her ass into the bin and get it stuck and double weapons depending on size based in city but still can go in mall zombie animals from zoo but unbitten ones that will help you rocket launcher grenades better combat moves knifes use kids toy swords and plastic shields i think you should be able to run around with a shopping trolley then jump in it while its moving or get a/some zombies in it a shove em and most of all bring dead rising on to pc!



  100. King-E Says:

    Dead Rising is a top game, all it really lacks is the online and offline Co-Op. I think it would be great if online play with others would be set so you can create gangs and team up against the zombies, even fight each other, you know a bit like fighting for the city. I also think that you need to stretch the boundry make it an entire city, im sure that everyone would just love to play a game like this if you have an entire city to explore a new story line and make it how it left off, it was a great finish and would make a great begining for the Deadrising sequel



  101. King-E Says:

    Oh i forgot, don’t make it as simple as Willamette is go to a massive city, everyone will have the urge to throw a zombie of a building and besdies, u need a new enviroment even if it is dangerous make sure you bring Isabela back you need someone liek that, don’t Use Frank, Make it so you are an aquaintance of Franks that U create the most important thing is make some things easier, i know some will disagree but c’mon people in yellow coats running around the mall is a bit stupid, i hope you make it a little more believable to i can’t stand games that have that sort athing oh and make some things interactive, like you grapple a zombie and throw it into objects or smash there head into the concrete make it more interactive is all i want



  102. Kutter Says:

    the thing with mele weapons is reely FuckingGay cuz pipes dont brake the bend and bend them enuf then they break but the chainsaw should stay the same but make it last longer

    the chainsaw tecnical needs to be reloded in away so still drop it wen its out but atleast make it last longer



  103. Gilbert Says:

    READ THIS NOW TO SEE WHATS REALLY GOING TO HAPPEN IN DEAD RISING 2!!!

    .FIRST OF ALL U DON’T PLAY AS FRANK ANYMORE!!! HELLO REMEMBER HE’S INFECTED.

    .IN THE BEGINNING OF THE GAME IT INDICATES HE IS NO LONGER RETURNING BECAUSE HE TURNED INTO A ZOMBIE

    .FROM NOW AND ON YOU PLAY AS ISABELLA

    .This GAME SHOWS COMPARISON TO RESIDENT EVIL: EXTINCTION. YOU ARE IN THE DEATH VALLEY DESSERT.

    .THE SURVIVORS ARE MORE TRAINED AND ARE A LOT SMARTER THAN THE LAST GAME! THEY ACTUALLY AIM RIGHT.

    .NEEDLESS TO SAY THERE IS NO WAY THEY COULD STOP DEAD RISING IN THE SECOND GAME, SO THERE IS POSSIBILITIES THAT THERE ARE GOING TO MAKE A THIRD IN THE FRANCHISE.

    .IT IS RUMORED THAT THE GAME WOULD BE TITLED DEAD RISING: DEATH VALLEY. BUT THATS NOT CONFORMED.

    .;,/’—-DIFFERENCES FROM DEAD RISING 1 AND 2—-’,.;/

    - This time you have to look for food to survive.
    - can’t find food. means your gonna die!
    - the game has a time limit, but not a short one.
    - cars are now nearly indestructible
    - *yes* u still could change ur clothes.
    - after finishing the game you could customize your character and its been rumored you might even play as one of the resident evil characters. simply because capcom made both dead rising and resident evil.
    - NO MORE SMALL CHAINSAW! )=
    - NO MORE JOURNALISM!!! YAY!!!
    - LOTS OF NEW MOVES AND WEAPONS! SAY HELLO TO THE FLAME THROWER.
    - CONCEPT OF THE GAME IS TO FIND A CURE AND AN END TO THE VIRUS.

    +++++++ THAT’S ALL I HAVE FOR YOU NOW THANKS FOR TAKING YOU TIME TO READ+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++



  104. henslie Says:

    man fuck u gordo i ill go whit justin Co-op sounds cool and more gunz would be nice to online is cool but Co-op sounds beder



  105. adam griffiths Says:

    On dead rising 2 you should beable to drive more vehicles e.g. the trucks off dawn of the dead vans copcars jeeps lorries quads and are only available in co-op offline and online off line co-op has 4 players and online should have maximum of 12 players.
    The first half of the game should be in the city and the second back in the mall but you can acces the city at any time.
    A better range of weapons e.g.ak47 rpg m16 grenades and all the others.
    You should be able to go in every shop and use everything e.g. rc cars dolls to throw at zombies and dead bodies should stay for a maximum time of 5 mins weapons dont break for a good while you can steel cash to edit your player e.g. new hair,clothes,upgrade stats,weapon range,hit points.
    A choice of mission mode or freeplay.
    you choose your player at the beginig and do the rest of the game with him.
    On freeplay you should beable to go in and outside the mall at any time and the city should have many features e.g. school,hospital,access the sewers and all bulding roofs,butcher,takeaway,police and fire station and many more.
    Zombie features e.g.more people design,zombies of all age groupes,more intelligent,more blood and guts,more detail e.g. loss of arms,brain shows when hit on head with bat.
    Not as much survivours all types of food.
    when blood goes in water the water gets a tinted red colour blood acctualy pours out of the wound of the zombie e.g. shoot in head blood slides down his face and if it hits the wall it slides down the wall glass shatters when shot cracks when hit.
    and i can think of a lot more things but id like to keep it simple ill post more soon see you all again bye



  106. efrain v. Says:

    all right people
    not a mall
    not a city
    a world!!!
    massive multiplyayer online, having the ability to build your own crew and survive in a world overrun by the living dead.Build a convoy and travel from city to city collecting weapons and food and survivors.in my vision i see another world a world where all is possible cars , buses, airplanes,motorcycles all open for use
    all buildings should be accsessible and a type of trade system where gamers can trade food items weapons and vehicles.
    c’mon people

    efrain villareal



  108. King-E Says:

    Simple but difficult, i wanted a full on city scene more characters no time limit and a bloody long storyline and please have a difficulty setting i mean deadrising 1 was far to easy more weapons and seriously if ur going to have somehting like the convicts on DR1 they cant be able to return i killed them six times in the one story mode, u have to be frank or it aint deadrising remember he may be infected but her has tolerance against the infection, the story cant be about finding a cure or it will get boring after five minutes, Frank has to realise he cant make things the way there were so he goes round a city searching for survivors and forming a resistance against the zombies or just make a totally different deadrising game so it is just a free for all sandbox with no limit to what you have to do, and keep it in mind there are plenty more ideas out there



  109. King-E Says:

    Efrain.V u got the right idea go world wide but you do realise an online game like that would take a hell of along time to create, the server would have to be bloody massive to support an online game like that



  110. Nicola Davidson Says:

    Dead Rising 2 needs to be more bloody than the first Dead Rising. It needs more realistic blood squirting out of zombies chopped off arms and heads and it also needs puddles of blood on the floor and when blood splatters on the walls it would be better if blood ran down the walls. I think there should be more weapons in the game, more guns and more tools.



  111. Nicola Davidson Says:

    almost forgot…… when you shoot a zombie realistic bullet holes and marks dripping with blood. Also when you shoot a zombie in the face with a shotgun at far range it should make small pellet holes in the zombies face, at closer range it should make bigger holes in the zombies face. At closer range it should make a hole in the zombies head, at even closer range it should shatter the zombies head.



  112. Nicola Davidson Says:

    Dead rising was a grate game it was graphic and bloody it had a good story however it needed work it needed blood squirting and spraying out of zombies chopped of arms and the rest of the body for a longer time a realistic time not just for 1 second and the blood needs to be realistic and so do the zomies and people and it would be ecellent if Dead rising 2 could fit in thease following upgrads no.1 realistic blood squirting out of chopped of arms and the rest of the body for a realistic amount of time no.2 when blood splaters on the walls the blood should run and drip down the walls no.3 more attacks whith wepons and more types of wepons like more types of guns and tools no.4 when a zombie or a person gets shot there should be realistic bullet holes whith blood driping out no.5 when a zombie gets shot realistic amounts of blood should squirt out I hope my upgrade ideas get excepted then dead rising 2 would be a grate enjoyable game I hope some some one reads this



  113. Nicola Davidson Says:

    Dead rising should be out on xbox 360 then I wouldnt have to keep changing games consoles



  114. The Wicker Man Says:

    Nicola Davidson, if the 1st game was on the 360 and is known as one of the fastest selling titles with gow and halo 3. I’m pretty much sure this baby will be on the 360 no problems.

    I thought DEAD RISING 1 was awesome!

    Story > amazing
    Graphics > very good, not great but very good

    Things they need to improve on.

    The AI on people are dumb as hell. They never stay with you, you literally have to mow down the zombies yourself.

    I would like 2 see two more games.

    A sequel and a prequel. I would like to see how the game ends and I would like to see how everything started.



  115. Nikki Davidson Says:

    in Dead rising 1 when a zombie gets shot or stabed or chopped in half and falls down to the ground dead puddles of blood do not apear on the floor from the zombies bodys. in Dead rising 2 it would be good if pudles of blood did come out of dead bodys in the most realistic way as possible. and when a zombie gets shot in the head or anywere else in Dead rising 2 it should make realistic bullet holes in the zombies or people and also at close range with a shotgun in Dead rising 2 if you shoot a zombie you should be able to blow there arms of and close range with a



  116. Nikki Davidson Says:

    in the first Dead rising when a zombie got shot Dead and fell down to the ground Blood puddles dident appear from the zombies bodies. it would be ecellent if blood puddles did appear from shot Dead zombies bodies in Dead rising 2.it would also be ecellent if you could shoot zombies arms of with a shotgun at close range in Dead rising 2 and when the zombies arms get shot of blood needs to squirt and spray out.



  117. Jack Krauser Says:

    i think there should be a create your character because you wont have to be just oneperson and dont just put the person in a damn mall let the game be an open world experience.And when you create an character let the person dress the character differently like make him look like hunk from RE:UC.Also please let the military be on your fuckin side and not try to kill you.and dont make where you have to find some fagget who is going to release a drug in the atmosphere and turn the world to zombies.dont make the character a fuckin photojournalist instead make him a fuckin cop or speacial forces or some shit.



  118. Nikki Davidson Says:

    in Dead Rising 2 it would be excellent if you could blow holes in zombies bodies at very close range with a shotgun and it should take a realistic a amount of shots in the same place to blow a hole in the zombies body. When the zombie gets shot one time at very close range with a shotgun it should not blow a hole in the zombie it should take a realistic number of shots to blow a hole in the zombie when the zombie gets shot one time in the body with a shotgun, there should be a deitailed bullet mark in the body and the bullet mark should get bigger and deeper in the skin evry time the body gets shot in the same place the bullet mark in the skin should get biger and deeper until it turns in to a hole in the body. and also when a zombie gets shot in the neck blood should squirt out of the neck and it should squirt out realisticly.



  119. colt Says:

    dead rising is fun game but it is not that fun. in dead rising 2 there needs to be more guns and more ammo, Co-op would be good and to kill zombie millitary people and take there guns, take over tanks and other millitary things. for weapons there shoud be more weapons to get and in the mall there needs to be more bathrooms or more places to save. for guns alot more slection of guns like M16s, Ak 47, millitary guns, and more hand guns and when you go to shoot a zombie or a man on a 50. cal like with shot gun or a rifle it shoud to more damag than a hand gun and you shoudent have to kill people that are diving a millitary jep three times. there should be more things to drive than a jep and a bike like motorcycles and other things. you should have to unlock a guns that can never run out of ammo like a hand gun or a shout gun or a M16 or an AK 47 or something more hand to hand skills its not fun when your guy cant put a zombie on the grond with a punch.



  120. GropingWings Says:

    I agree with you guys but why cant we become a zombie at night, find other people and eat them if ur a zombie and coop …. And make it to where we wanna keep playing it



  121. GropingWings Says:

    oh one more thing better soundtrack or customizable soundtrack



  122. allie Says:

    Dead Rising 2 would be excellent if Frank west could do some brutal kills with crowbars blades axes baseball bats etc the kills should be done by stabbing a crowbar in a zombies neck smashing a zombies head open with a crowbar and stabbing a zombie to death with a knife. some kills should be simaler or the same to the kills in manhunt 1 but there should not be a looking through a camera style in dead rising 2 when you kill a zombie like there is in manhunt . and you should be able to get an axe and swipe the zombies body or stick the axe in the zombies skin and pull it out and do it again until the zombie dies and if you cut of a zombies head of with an axe blood should squirt up in the air at a realistic height the blood should squirt out realisticly and it should squirt out for a realistic time and when the zombie falls down to the grown the blood should still be squirting out. it should take more than one chop with an axe to cut of a zombies head or arm.



  123. Trogdor the Burninator Says:

    Ok here are my ideas for inprovments
    1.Survivors aren’t retarded.
    2.You can chose to hold up in a house with survivors untill you need to go out for stuff like guns or food.
    3.Create your own character.
    4.If you have Zombie Genecider in DR1 then you don’t have to redo it for DR2(but the DR2 megablaster is powerful so you get a better version if DR2 has zombie genecider)
    5.the area should be a small town not 50,000 countries like everyone else says.
    6.Multiplayer.
    and lastly
    7.You can be a zombie.



  124. ben harris Says:

    it should be that when you save somebody they should make it when the 2end controller presses start theres an blue circle that you can choose the second player. they should be able to chose from all the people you have chose so far,



  125. chazzman Says:

    i rely hope they make dr2 the first 1 was so good it be better if you could hide in house bloke them up with chars etc weapons dont brake so easy frank shound be in it i dont care wot as the guy rocks shound be in a litte town with more shop and house to go in to more gu7ns were the ak 47 and more differt zoimbes co op online off line wound kick ass that wound make this game rock



  126. hore Says:

    f



  127. deadzore Says:

    I think the a.i is fine there zombies and it would be retarded if they were like the tyrents or crimson heads, the game sfine but #2 could have a city where you can free roam and instead of a time limit there should be a total zombie count, but lots of survivors to to make more zombies and if u are wounded the zombies should all pool armound you because zombies can sence blood. But a online play would be nice and make the main char sound like a man not some pedifile



  128. bloop Says:

    i thhink when u make barricade then when u leave area nd come back it still there and co-op



  129. ilovedeadrising Says:

    what everyone wants in a good zombie game is 1-4 player co-op online and off line what would also be good for dead rising 2 is at the beginning let the players create people instead of being someone you made let them customize there our person like height, weight, different hair styles everything, what skin color they are and let them dress them how they want. Also what i was saying before about that 1-4 player co-op online and off line would be great you would probably sell way more if its more than 1 player cuz me and my friends talk about 1-4 player zombie games waiting to come out but nobody makes them so if yall do yall will sell way more. Also way more weapons (guns mainly) and on the 1st dead rising the thing that made me mad was you couldnt move while aiming a gun it would be better to move while aiming a gun. And the whole thing about the weapons breaking like a chainsaw wouldnt break that easily or lead pipes. I can understand the wood and stuff breaking but not chainsaws and pipes and swords or knifes. But the 1st dead rising was awesome just make the next one 1-4 players trust me YOU WILL SELL MORE IF ITS 1-4 PLAYERS!!!!!!



  130. ilovedeadrising Says:

    also if your goin to do co-op 1-4 off line let them create their players not create one then the others be some made up one let all 4 create people



  131. Legendary V Says:

    As much as I loved Dead Rising, Dead Rising 2 should have harder zombies, that gather in large in groups when they find you and it should be in a CITY



  132. F~A~T~E Says:

    i think it should be in a city were you can actually use anything as a weapon im mean anything as a weapon,and your able to cutomize your own character and use anything around you in the game,custom make your own weapons by mixing weapons with other weapons,and your able to run,like sprint,have offline co-op mode,hav zombies that can use guns and chainsaws and other weapons ,and have more new weapons you can use,have more days you hav to survive,more bosses,and have so challenging zombies that are tougher than others and more skills you hav to earn there should be more explosives avalable



  133. isaac trevino Says:

    you need to put in mulityplaer and a co-op for people how wont to play this game to gather so i think co-op is the beat thing and let it be to 4 players and let them go were every they wont



  134. tyler shope Says:

    ya i think that isaac is right . a lot of people wont to play with there freinds on deadrising so ya i think that he is right



  135. sdg197 Says:

    cant wait for it come out and it would suck to be a zombie couse you move hella slow

    1. coop online and off
    2. mixable weapons so you can invent your own dead rising wepon like taping knives to a soccer ball and thowing it at zombies or knives to a frisbie
    3. create your own player

    and btw its ganna take place in a theme park or las vegas
    i want vegas



  136. sean Says:

    it would be better if u could:play on co-op and live and normall mode,it should be able 2 system link up,it should be a city,u should get my wepons,more veicles,be able 2 go into any house u want and be able 2 biuld a barricade and walk into a house and find survivours,and a cure that will last forever,and no cases, and of course be able 2 choose how your character looks,and u have 2 gather food 2 stay alive and if people wid u get bitten they would turn,and if its co-op u can make alot more money out of it:)and be able 2 save people running around the city thats what we need!!!!!!!



  137. dead man walking Says:

    i think if you get bit by a zombie youl turn into one if you dont eat or get medicine or sumtin. should add a better variety of guns too, and i know a few people said this but add a barricade making mode. it would be awesome if you could make melee more realistic, and maby add a few survivors that will ONLY follow you and help so you dont have to like bring em back to security room.



  138. Landon Says:

    I think it would be sweet to have fast zombies. Keep the slow ones but also add creepy fast ones.



  139. bryce Says:

    i think a co-op mode would be sweet on or off line and items shouldnt break so easy and there should be a sprint option. the fat zombies shouldnt be stronger than the skinnier ones. there should be a mode where your a zombie. you shouldnt only have to take three bites to finish big food items. you should have the option of using frank and the rest of the crew doing different things threw the game like and frank mode and brad mode and even a carlito mode. There should be customizable car actors. You also should be able to dress survives.
