The Dead Rising 3 discussion

I think I'll get episodes 2/3 this weekend. The new combo vehicle in episode 3 looks so damn cool. I think after the last piece of DLC I'll go back to play through the main story again which will be my 4th time around.

Value is in the eye of the purchaser. :cool:

Wonderwaffle rip off is awesome on the second DLC. Played a little if both today. All three so far have been good imo. Extra stuff that adds replay to campaign. New vehicle in 3rd one is awesome!
 
Yep. Rushed through the story last night. I'll tell you one thing, if you loved unnecessary roadblocks blocking your path, then you'll love this one. It had a few in particular that made you drive all the way around the city to get to the other side.

In terms of story, the ending did bring a little closure.
 
Thinking I am going to hop back into this crazy world. How is the DLC?
 
Anyone have specific recommendations on skill trees to try to focus on initially in this game? I'd been spreading my points evenly while leveling up, but realized certain trees are likely far more helpful than others. Any recommendations would be appreciated!

FYI, finally started playing this game again. My save file was from the day of launch, haha. I have had way too many fun games to play, wanted to sit this one aside until I could focus on it!

I went with health, and boxes for weapons.
Once you get the Ultimate grim reaper, just go around and kill zombies. You'll max out everything in no time.

I'm the same way man. Have had some games for a long time that I haven't played yet and still getting more. I'm just too busy :sad:

That's the worst thing about getting older. You finally have the cash to afford all the things you want to buy, you just don't have the time to enjoy them!
 
Man this game is addicting, you keep unlocking new weapons and vehicles right when you're starting to get bored with the ones you have. It just never ends, there's always something crazy to try.

Did anyone who played the game run out of time? I just barely reached chapter 4, and I only have a little over 2 days left of in-game time. I've heard there are between 7 and 9 chapters, worried I'm not going to make it. :(

I don't feel like I've been wasting time at all either. Oh well.

I ran out of time during my first nightmare run by making the mistake of playing the side missions which there isn't time for on that difficulty. But on normal I had plenty of time and did every side mission except the two I let the timer run out for because I got caught up searching for blueprints. I played through the game three times but you may not like the game as much as I did so I hope you make it through.

I'm playing on normal as well, which is odd. I've only been trying to get all the side missions and trying to find collectibles. Seems like the game is somehow moving at Nightmare difficulty speed, despite being on normal.

Or maybe you're losing track of how much time you spent searching for things. :p

Honestly, I only went after blueprints on my first run while also focusing on the side and campaign missions.

That may be the case. I assume if I do fail, I can choose the "chapter select" option and start from there with all of my upgrades and such.

You'll probably have time anyway. I did just about every side mission and had a little bit of time left over. I didn't get all the blueprints though.
 
Yeah, essentially all the chapters after 3 fly by. I played all the way to half way through the last one last night (I think there's an overtime chapter after this though).

Never even came close to running out of time but then I was around level 30 when I started Nightmare Mode.

Very nice. IMO this was the best launch game.

I swing back and forth between this, Forza 5, and Ryse. I like them almost equally. But DR3 is probably the most fun and definitely the best DR game I've ever played.

I've only watched the gameplay vids and I had more fun doing that than any other DR game in all honesty.
