So I got to the guy you fight at the end of overtime mode. He kicked my ass. I tried to fight him again, and he kicked my ass again. I think I may level up and come back and fight him later.
If you aren't over level 30 don't even bother.
I'm workingon my Frank the pimp achievement but my simple plan fell through when I never got the call about the two girls in the entrance plaza; it might be becuase I never did the second case and as such the gate from paradise is still closed. I'm not sure.
There's still about 6 or 7 girls I can wait to save though, and I only need one, so I'm going to hang out in the bathroom at Wonderland until I get a call about someone.
Turns out you won't get calls on new survivors if saving them would cause you to have more than 8. That's why I didn't get the call on the girl and her friend or the movie theatre. I also won't get the call about the long haired guy unless I kill off one of my girls.
I'm thinking I'll just wait until that old lady shows up on the soccer ball and save her. If that doesn't work out well I'll load up my save from a little earlier and kill some of these chicks.
He is currently kicking my ass as well. There needs to be a save point after fighting the tank. This and the Carlito bomb fight are the most annoying boss battles ever.Quote:

Tank Tips: Shoot the lights until the tracking sensor on the top pops up, then shoot it. You'll know you're hitting either of them becuase flames will be shooting out as you do. This tactic keeps it from firing it's main cannon. When it fires droids or missles, shoot those out of the air. It's simple.
Brock Tips: Stand above or below him on the tank at all times, never at his level; really though you want to be below him. The simple way to do this is to stay below him doing double lariats or jump kicks until he decides to come down to your level. Then all you have to do is go to the upper level (where you can still jump kick him if you time it right) and wait for him to come up so you can go back down. If you're crafty you can get through the whole fight without taking damage with this technique.
As a side note I found a list of all the clothing items in the mall and I'm going to go knock them all out so Iget clothing horse.
Merged Post: That list was really helpful. It only took me about 10 or 15 minutes to follow it to all the items I didn't remember wearing and get my achievement.
This is what I ended up doing and I kicked his ass at level 26. Now I am doing a survivors run through. This game is so much more fun when you are a higher level. I fucking love throwing people around and suplexing them.Quote:

First up is adam with a few Uzi's from Paradise Plaza. Then I'm going to go kill all the snipers and take their Pizzas. Word on the street is those three pizzas can damn near get you through a whole day since they recover all of your health blocks with the three books.
Man, with the three books, this is really just a waiting game. I have a full inventory right now and everything is either something that will heal me for 12 blocks or the books. I'm also standing next to a coffee creamer I'm waiting to pick up when I can use one of the food items I'm already carrying.
Based on my understanding of how time and health pass in this mode, and seeing as how I'm 17 hours into day one right now, I think it'll be day three before I have to eat something that isn't currently in my inventory. Which means I will be spending HOURS inside this theatre.
The good news is it takes almost 20 minutes to lose all your health so I can easily watch TV and browse the internet while I do this.
Final note: the lightsaber better be fucking incredible.
UPDATE:
I was three days in with (according to a list I found in a FAQ) over half the available food still in the mall (which doesn't include the days worth in my inventory) and my 360 locked up. I really want to survive seven days, but without a save system in place, it looks like technology isn't going to allow it.
Here's hoping for a much needed patch of sorts.
I think I am going to wait for the inevitable PS3 port to try some of the crazy challenges. The 360 is just not capable of avoiding DREs long enough to make the risk worthwhile.
Where are the bosses in infinite mode anyway? Anyone have a list?

No mission, it's just a regular old psychopath encounter. My suggested strategy is to hide behind the store display stands, wait until he's fired of six shots, then run up to the counter and lace into him with a katana or any other melee weapon with decent distance. Repeat until mincemeat.Quote:

Good(?) to see I'm not the only one with DREs. I'd have the genocider achievement by now if I hadn't lost about 45,000 combined kills from 4 DREs. Just lost the motivation to play after that. :\
Great game regardless. Not too hard as long as you milk katanas/SMGs the whole time.
You walk in on the guy already in the shop talking to Cletus, noob.Quote:

I did it on a day when I was home sick from work, so I had nothing better to do but to lie in bed and produce impressive amounts of mucus. I beat the game that morning, let the intro video loop a few times while I browsed the web, then came back and did the zombie kills in one sitting. I've never had a DRE, but then again I just got my 360 2 weeks ago so maybe that helps. I should try 7-day survivor.
HAY GUYS, LOOK ITS ONLY THREE PANELS
Having skimmed this thread while other people were playing was the worst idea ever. It did not even take much to ruin the game -- just knowing where the katana and SMG was in Paradise plus knowing the full 0wnage of the mini-chainsaws was more than enough to blow the game wide open. :\
Playing this game for score was also the most boring thing ever. Lulz at three hours of taking chainsaws to special forces units (but now I'm ranked #42 in the world in single game PP, e-penis++).
Ok, so I borrowed DR from a friend and it's both the coolest and most annoying thing ever. I like just walking around and killing zombies and using different weapons, but the boss battles, like the guys out in the courtyard, make me hate the game. I'm guessing I probably need to level or something.
This thread is way too long to read it all, so I'm fishing for tips. If anyone's kind enough to tell me the least frustrating ways to get some levels and not have everything be totally annoying, I'm all ears.
The fastest way to gain PP is to rescue survivors and also to kill psychopaths. It's not uncommon though, at the beginning, to restart the game with your level intact when you lose ("save settings and restart). I did it about twice until I started the game the third time at level 12 or so.
Starting this way makes the beginning a lot more do-able, and from there doing the case files will land you enough survivors and psychopath encounters to finish with the true ending at around level 35.
EDIT: If you're interested, you can get the mini-chainsaw, the best melee weapon in the game, by searching out the "Out of Control" scoop on the first night. Beat the boss and it respawns there every time you enter Wonderland Plaza.
Yeah, I think everyone started out just killing a shit-ton of zombies for fun.
Just remember it's total videogame logic; bring some food and it doesn't matter how often you get hit. Once your inventory gets bigger the game opens up. Rescue people for huge PP bonuses.
When escorting survivors, give them whatever is around for weapons if they can carry them. Use the hold R + Y waypoints more than the FOLLOW ME FOLLOW ME HEY LISTEN method, even the shittiest escort will defend a position decently with the waypoints. Give them food to recharge their health to full if they get too hurt, all survivors can take a shit ton of damage. It doesn't matter if some die, there's plenty around. I got to level 39 in my first full play through just by rescuing people, then hit 50 running over zombies to get the Mega Buster.
As for weapons, until you have enough inventory to use Adam's mini-chainsaws + 2-3 books (depending on how much room you currently have) you can break apart mannequins and use mannequin torsos. Dave tipped me off to them and they're damn good.
Shotgun or SMG the prisoners. Stick to the tree's for cover. They'll usually run in to it and you can get some cheap shots in. There's a shotgun at the very beginning when one of the people in the Entrance Plaza dies. His corpse is swarmed by zombies so get a bat and clean house. It's behind the stairs to the right (facing the main doors).Quote:

Don't get killed just to restart and up levels. You might as well try to get as much PP as you can by rescuing people on your first playthrough. Killing the clown (Adam) in the Wonderland Plaza gives you the mini-chainsaws everyone raves about.
The boss battles are easy, but avoid those convicts, especially at the lower levels. Just run through, carry or hold someone's hand through it, whatever. If you have 2-3 people they might kill one of them, but it's ok. You're gonna lose survivors when you're playing the game without cheesing the fuck out of it at level 50, so don't worry about it. Watching people die is part of the fun.Quote:

That means a single mini with all three books will last for approx. 27x the usual amount (about 4000 zombie kills) and can wreck almost any boss at level 50 with two to three swipes. Some people will try to talk shit about hedge clippers or whatever, who cares.
The convicts in the jeep are kind of a fluke, nothing else in the game is ever as hard. Just run for now. It's all pretty easy, if you're stuck at a boss or something I guess you can ask here but it just means you suck.
You can only get creamer in the security room on the first night. The best places to stock up, food-wise, which never run out are:Quote:

You can fuck around with trying to get the convicts stuck on a tree to kill them, but unless you destroy the car to the point where you can't drive it (make sure you do first for the achievement) they'll respawn the next day, lol at you =( Hell, they might even if you destroy the car. At level 50 with a mini-chainsaw they're a joke, so it doesn't even matter.
The uber cheese way to ruin the game is to do a zombie genocide run first, and then use the Mega Blaster you get for that to blow through everything in the game. That's no fun, though.
The hedge clippers are useful in two spots: Fighting the convicts and fighting Carlitio in the truck. They have better range than the minichainsaws. As for fighting Adam to get the minichainsaws, I usually use a katana from the weapon store near the supermarket or on the awning outside the Roastmasters in Paradise.
Mzo, how do you talk about food and not mention the supermarket in North Plaza? :p Seriously though, the OJ stand in Colombian Roastmasters and the wine in the food court is all you ever should need.
The convicts will respawn, even if you destroy their jeep... sometimes. Every time I have destoryed the jeep on day one, they come back on day three (but are missing for the next two nights, wtf).
Dump 2 OJ into the blender in the coffee shop to get a Nectar. It makes queens hang around you if there's any present and also has major healing. It's about as useful as a food product can get.

Don's listen to this man. Go get a ton of Uzi's from above the warehouse exit in paradise plaza. Just go to the stairs and jump onto the side of the blue covers and run across them until you come to it. Now take those to adam and keep your distance, when he blows up a balloon shoot it right before it's full (for maximum effect) and this will stun him. Then unload a few rounds into his head and repeat. The mini chainsaws and three books are the only weapons you'll need for the rest of the game.Quote:

Just remember that if you're going to melee Adam, only hit him when you get a window after he does a move or when he's making a balloon. Anything else will result in a chainsaw block that'll destroy whatever item you're swinging.

I found that running right upto him when he throws the balloon also works a treat. You'll both get dazed, but it'll always result in you gaining balance first, using it to your advantage, you can whack him on the head with a heavy melee weapon while he's still dazed.

You don't if you're level ass.
The SMG is up on the blue awning in Paradise Plaza, jump and grab onto it from halfway up the stairs closest to the security room door.
I'm level 17. I keep playing like, the first case worth over and over.
Yeah, just run.
Get through the game at least once. Go rescue some people, you get like 98298298459485 PP for every one.

Chick on the bike is all about a range weapon. If you dont have a gun, or need more shit to shoot there is a nail gun on the top level of scafolding that you can grab.
Katana. Stay somewhat close to her and wait until she turns. You can get in 2-3 swipes. Doesn't take long to kill her that way. There's also an ulimited supply of them in the knife shop.Quote:
