Is /v/ looking forward to Dead Rising 4? I know it's zombies but I'm getting a real Gremlins vibe from this, probably the small town Christmas theme.
Not really, I honestly havent even seen a single piece of media on it, but the DR formula has run its course.
1 was amazing because of how original it was
2 was pretty good
3 was alright
Following this trend, 4 is probably going to be mediocre or even bad.
>also releasing on PS4
not interested. thanks for spending money on timed exclusives instead of real ones, M$
>>344491934
>I'm not excited for a game because it might also release on another stystem, which is completely unacceptable to me!
It was never exclusive to begin with, since the PC is getting it for Win10 on the MS Store (And possibly Steam at some point)
Looks better then 3. I'm pissed they replaced Rotolo though. Hoping they bring him back pre-release. Also hoping for more Frank and Chuck bro-op. Their banter was great in OTR.
>>344491934
this is the stupidest reason to not be excited for a game i think i've ever heard.
I'm very excited, these games are fucking awful, all of them, but I love them.
Looks like 3 but if they fixed some things. Still upset about original frank VA not returning, unless by some hilarious plot twist it's all a movie or something and Frank is directing.
>>344491934
Just like Rise of the Tomb Raider amirite? :^)
>>344492495
Leakers (Protofaggot) say we're playing as the real Frank.
>>344491934
Theres no co-op anyway. The only saving grace of these games after the first.
>inb4 back to muh roots
This is way too over the top for the original dead rising fuck off for anyone that says otherwise.
>>344491640
its like 3 fixing some things but completely ruining others
>generic as fuck hud
>some how frank is even younger and with a new va
>no time limits
>no longer need to escort surivors
it has just be come wacky zany zombie killing game
I really hope they focus more on being stuck in a mall type area like they did with 1 and 2. The open world in 3 didn't have the same kind of aesthetic and it felt like a generic zombie game because of it. That and I hope they make the psychopaths original, basing the bosses on the 7 deadly sins made them predictable and unoriginal imo
>>344492790
dont worry they heard your problem and now the game world is even bigger
the gameplay footage they have showed so far looks silly as hell and whoever is voicing frank sounds like a dipshit
>>344492790
Devs claim
A)New mall is bigger then Willimett's original.
B)Psychos are going to be like real human beings again.
>>344491640
Not really. the first game had a LOT of problems in it's design decisions but they oddly added to the charm of the game.
@ tries to fix 1's problems, 3 tries to be more mainstream viable, and 4's just a zombie sandbox because we got nothin.I do weirdly want to fuck Chuck's daughter in DR3 though.
>>344492913
There's nothing wrong with a big game world, just as long as it's interesting to explore and fuck around in. Hopefully the mall itself takes up a sizable chunk of the games environments.
>>344492913
I don't mind as long as there's actual explorable interiors like a mall.
Tbh I prefer these zombie games to shit like day z and survival genre or TWD wannabes like TLoU or Days Gone.
>>344493041
>I want to fuck an adult blue eyed blonde white woman.
>I think this may be weird.
>>344491640
this game is going to be a piece of shit because they confirmed not only is singleplayer not having a time limit but co-op will have time limit but it will be lenient like dr3
>>344493205
The fact she's made of polygons and pixels does kinda make it weird.
>>344491640
>Xbox One Exclusive
I don't really care for it. I feel like the series has been going in the wrong direction after the first game. But I'll watch it from afar to see what changes they make.
Not really excited but seeing how 3 was pretty good despite of how fucking terrible it looked it might be worth checking out.
>Frank's old va gone, new one sounds nothing like him
>looks younger now then he did 16 years ago, dude is in his mid fifties
Aside from that, I'm cautiously optimistic. Really hope they put back in actually saving people though, that "kill the zombies around this person and they're saved" DR3 bullshit sucked.
>>344491640
I thought 3 was shit (on XBone) so no I'm not looking forward to 4
>>344493450
they confirmed that its the same saving system as DR3
Fucking hell they JUST'd up Frank pretty good.
Frank in 1/2 was bulky and kinda built/fat and looked somewhat young in 1 and fucking old in 2.
Now he looks completely different. On top of all that the VA is different.
>>344491640
>Frank West is back
>camera mechanic is back
>Christmas themed zombie game
>that /m/ suit
>co-op
>going back to the over-the-top and borderline silly zombie killing gameplay that made the first game great
I think I can deal with Frank's new VA being replaced, though I will sincerely miss TJ Rotolo
I actually started playing DR3 a week ago on PC, and it seems pretty fun. Haven't played the others because those never catched my attention, but I'll might as well give them a try.
>>344493596
Why? Did anyone actually like that shit?
Fucks sake, the escorting thing was central to the first 2, now we just have overpowered survivors following us around killing everything for us.
>>344493309
>singleplayer not having a time limit
If this is actually true then I'm not touching this with a ten foot pole.
>>344493660
sup capcom shill
how about gameplay elements?
no time limit so no urgency to do anything, the e3 build only had a time limit so people can get a turn
or how about survivors not needing to be escorted again
but as long as you have your wacky zany zombie killing game your happy right.
>>344493796
Come on, let's get real for a minute. The escorting shit in DR1/2 was a pain in the ass. It was the number one complaint regarding the first game, because the A.I was so retardedly bad it made the whole thing feel like an exercise in tedium.
>>344493802
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8BFGQBo15I
he confirms
no time limit at all except in co-op
escorting survivors gone
and best yet now when you save survivors they just leave and you get a combo weapon
>>344494081
everyone said dr2 survivors were good enough retard. so what do we do now kill zombies all day?
>>344494081
>>344493796
Yeah, I'm not sure why we're pretending the survivors from one weren't fucking tedious as fuck, you had to completely ignore the mechanics the game provides to keep them alive.
I'm genuinely glad 3 fixed it.
>>344493352
Not really.
>>344491934
Just like RotTR, right?
>>344494081
They fixed the AI in 2, damn near impossible to get them killed there. Now there's no real reason to save them as they're just random boosts.
Aside from that, saving all of the fuckers in the first two games felt great, cause you had to be on the ball to get to them, save them, kill any nearby psychos, and haul their asses in. This is like getting rid of the time limit cause it made things too hard. you take those out and you've effectively removed the sense of accomplishment from completing DR 1 & 2.
>>344494212
I'm sure there's plenty of other stuff to do in the game than just kill zombies. Escort missions were filler at best.
>Recuue that survivor!
>Oh look, another survivor you need to rescue!
>Nevermind what you're already doing, rescue that survivor dammit!
You were constantly being sidetracked by that shit.
Why is he still taking photographs?Is Frank a Psychopath?
>>344494212
Lovely. I guess this is another game I can just forget about. I just want the old devs back.
>>344492495
>>344494712
the fuck are you talking about, rise of the tomb raider is launching on ps4 WITH THE NEW EXPANSION
they get all the content at once while us xboners get jipped
>>344491640
the only problem is a lack of a weapon wheel and that you can't throw random shit anymore
There was nothing quite like throwing a tube tv into a crowd of zombies
Who was the best Psychopath and why was Sean?
>>344495113
>the fuck are you talking about, rise of the tomb raider is launching on ps4 WITH THE NEW EXPANSION
When? I'm glad I own both PS4 and Xbone so I can play real exclusives on PS4 and "fake" exclusives on Xbone that will eventually maybe release on other platforms
>>344494947
3 just made you collect a bunch of stuff for some random fuck or kill a bunch of zombies in a certain way. they replaced the filler with more filler that was more boring.
>>344491640

Adam the insane chainsaw wielding clown.
>>344495352
>First time fighting him
>Expect an ordinary old guy who I'd be able to stay out of range from easily
>He sprints towards me and 2 shots with his broadsword
Sean is pretty great. Adam's great too, and Brock's fight would've been top notch if the fist fighting was more polished.
>>344495519
okay, that doesn't excuse 1 and 2, still.
>>344491640
I've only played the first one and I remember it being pretty unique and revolutionary for its time. Normally when a game gets milked though it ends up being shitty, so..don't hold your breath
>>344495653
>Ran at 720p 20(ish)fps
It's incredible that this was a current-gen game
I get it, the Xbox One is less powerful than the PS4 but this was pathetic.
DR3 had the most fun bosses, mechanically.
>being hyped for 4 after DR 3
no ty
DR1 was fun but I never finished it, always got bored.
DR2 was eh.
DR3 was fun.
DR4 will probably be the most fun yet.
>>344495054
inafune knew what he was doing with this series, his team was out of ideas so he had them work alongside with capcom vancouver, at the time blue castle games. Now capcom just has them make games and it shows how fucking incompetent capcom vancouver is
>>344495801
They're going to continue the boring filler in 4 instead of, I don't know, maybe seeing if they could improve escorting survivors. But no, it's collectathons and 'kill zombies with weapon A' from here on out. Great.
>>344495801
Sidemissions in 3 were either
>See Bob and Steve trapped on their car surrounded by zombies
>Kill all Zombies
>Win
>See Jim
>Jim wants you to collect 7 specific items
>Collect items
>Win
Occasionally you will see survivors again, one fat nerdy kid you save ends up becoming a boss.
>>344491640
i was thinking more die hard but i can see gremlins vibe
>There will never be a Resi Evil game with this density of zombies where if you fuck up you're dead
Dead Rising ended with DR2:OTR for me, I hated that Katey bullshit in 2 and DR3 sucked balls with shitty protag and retarded story they should have just stuck with Frank as the main char from the begining.
Wonder if Overtime mode will be actually worth a shit this time. With the exception of the first game, all the overtime modes have sucked ass.
>>344496171
As apposed to:
>See survivor
>Have to escort them back to the safehouse
>Rinse and repeat
My problem with escorting survivors is the way it forces you to stop what you're doing and start doing something else. DR1 was pretty strict with its timed events, so the last thing you wanted to do was piss about escorting retarded A.I all the way back to the safe house, usually missing out on an important event because of it. Yes yes multiple playthroughs blah blah blah. It isn't the point though.
>>344494952
guess what, now he takes selfies as a form of detective mode.
>>344496618
>mfw overtime mode on DR 3
Holy shit I wanted the game to end so bad, final boss was kinda cool but fuck anything else.
>>344496678
>usually missing out on an important event
it's entirely possible to save all of the survivors and beat the game through Overtime mode.
>>344496678
>He didn't escort as many people as possible while still doing main story missions
>He doesn't know the amazing feeling of planning your next playthrough so you'll be able to do everything at the exact right time
Talk about casual. Then again, you're complaining about having to plan around escorts, an element of the game you can avoid entirely and still get the A ending.
If it's on PS4 or PC, then sure.
>>344495352
>Not Cliff
NAME AND RANK, SOLDIER
>>344495875
DR3 had one or two good bosses and a bunch of failed concepts. The psycho surgeon and the fat nerd who wanted to be you were probably the best, mechanically speaking
>>344491640
Why even call him frank west if they were going to change his face and voice? Is it just to antagonize people who enjoyed the first game? For what purpose?
>>344496678
Thats what made dead rising 1 fun and the reason 3 was shit.
>>344497814
This. This was the core of the first Dead Rising and one of the reasons it still stands out today amongst the slew of generic open world zombie shit.
>>344491640
>tfw just got Dead Rising 3 and all its DLC for 20 bucks from fucking gamestop
I think I did pretty well today all things considered
>>344500035
>all dlc
nope, there is the frank costume and chcuck costume along witht the golden sledgesaw and the exclusive day one event in game items and the new years eve content. its impossible to get all the content in the game ever
>>344500353
eh 20 dollars is still $20 since thats pretty much a tinny right there also its currently on the market place for $50 so I am still doing pretty good.
I just hope they look at all the flaws in past games (They did well at fixing DR2's flaws in DR2:OTR, mostly the player movement) and not fuck it up.
That and A: I pray the Frank's voice in 4 is a placeholder for the demo, and B: All the overpowered shit we saw in the demo was well, demo fuck-about.
Man when is half life 3 ganna cum out ? And left 4 dead 3 does the cumpany not like the number 3?
Dead rising 3 wasn't even bad
>>344501104
It really wasn't. Initially it's lacking in any charm, but once you get about half way the bosses are really awesome, and the MC and supporting characters gets some great character development. And more importantly it has the best, least frustrating gameplay of the series.
If they just take DR3 gameplay, but add the charm of 1/2, then 4 could be really fantastic.
>>344499410
wheelchair fat lady was really good too.
>>344501104
I was genuinly suprised how good it was or rather how bad they managed to make it look with their promotional work.
>>344501284
you mean worst gameplay of the series right? no escorting survivors and a horrible time limit system compared to the first 2 is the worst part of the game.
>>344500798
they are doubling down, removed time limit and focus on crazy combo weapons, survivors now just leave the area and leave a combo weapon for you, as far as TJ goes he has been confirmed to not be in contact with capcom at all
>>344493041
The only real issue with 1 was the human AI when trying to rescue people. Everything else was fine people just couldn't accept the fact that the game was meant to be ball bustingly hard at times.
>>344491640
I quite like this series. Silly antics with zombie smashing. I'll pick it up eventually. Too poor to buy new.
>>344501657
Fuuuuck really? I just hope it doesn't stray too far from the norm. And please find a TJ impersonator.
>>344502410
its stated right here in this thread in that youtube video
>>344491934
and pc.
