re: the photo getting 10,000 PP

when they run towards each other, get a decent angle...then zoom in on them as well...should get 5,000 PP for each of them, and therefore get the "PERFECT 10,000 PP" message

8/18/2006 11:35:21 AM

only photo i got 10k for thus far was the fat guy cheering after i gave him a steak in the place near the security room.

8/18/2006 12:00:33 PM

i had that dumb broad dana i think on my back while i ran with 2 other survivors...dana's dumbass died at the entrance to the warhouse inside the mall

8/18/2006 2:04:00 PM

i was surprised that you could get erotica pp if you get a picture up a dead zombie's skirt

8/18/2006 2:11:06 PM

i thought the happy fat guy was erotic, but the game didnt think so

8/18/2006 2:28:43 PM

found an uzi in the fountain in al fresco square

8/18/2006 3:07:30 PM

well the last 12 hrs are a real bummer. got caught 3x (second 2 from trying to run back to base naked). decided to sit around on the roof and wait for the heli. looked at the faq after i noticed i didnt get overtime mode.

i got ending C, im guessing because i was on the roof, not on the helipad...what a load of shit. replaying now to get the regular ending so i can do overtime. guess its not so terrible, im lvl 26 and have tons of freetime cuz i know where everthing is. didnt get to kill all the crazies last time.

My roommate got the Megaman Buster Cannon... you need 53,600 kills for it. He essentially just drove around in the parking garage knocking over zombies for like 2 hrs. It's a pretty powerful weapon though, he has the Megaman boots and helmet too, all he needs now is the suit.

I chuckled...

hah, this game is 10x better the second time through. its fun actually being able to walk around without dying a ton and being able to save ppl (cuz ur not worried about dying urself). i've already saved nearly as many ppl in the first day as i did the entire time last time (though i gave up trying on some ppl the first round).

8/19/2006 3:28:48 PM

the excavator in the hardware store might be my favorite weapon at this point

8/19/2006 5:45:24 PM

while i havent gotten anything crazy like the megabuster, i wish they would make regular weapons a little more beefy and things like adam's chainsaw a little less insane. its a bit rediculous that i can kill someone in 4 hits with the chainsaw and die without barely hurting them with a baseball bat or the like.

8/19/2006 6:00:06 PM

I just played this over a friends house. I could've spent a half hour just running around hitting zombies with a 2 x 4.

8/19/2006 7:12:15 PM

I got this game coming in from gamefly, hope its good. I've only heard people panning alot of how it is executed (time constraints, saving system, bugs)

8/19/2006 11:55:37 PM

it is fun, but the first run through was a little annoying (mostly in the beginning). you arent powerful enough to do anything and can die (and lose quite a bit of progress) in about 10 seconds.

luckily most "boss" fights can be run away from, unless they are part of the main story.

8/19/2006 11:58:24 PM

when is this isabella meeting that you HAVE to do to get the ending A?

I was on the helipad at the right time but I got C (then cut the game off before I saved)

it says in the faq that she is on the rooftop and she is easy to miss (and supposedly before you fight the crazy butcher)

god damn i must have missed her...

8/20/2006 5:52:53 PM

C means you did the cases but missed the helicopter according to the faq. were you standing actually on the helipad?

ah nm i see now, i think you just have to talk to her again at carlito's den then go to the helipad. guess thats why i failed to get ending A last time.


[Edited on August 20, 2006 at 6:12 PM. Reason : mainly cuz they kept capturing me]

8/20/2006 6:09:19 PM

^ yep youll get a call on your walkie talkie and itll set off another cutscene

8/20/2006 6:29:44 PM

oh, i was having problems answering while i was naked, getting eaten, and shot at.

8/20/2006 6:30:19 PM

i'm pretty sure you missed the meeting in the hideout (which is in north plaza near the gun shop)...my first play through i had ending A and then beat Overtime mode and now I'm going through and getting all of the achievements since I already have zombie genocide...lol

i'm a natural at this game thanks to all of my zombies ate my neighbors experience

8/21/2006 1:22:45 AM

damn

there's no fucking way i can get back to the north plaza now that those special forces cocksuckers are everywhere

might have to start over

8/21/2006 9:54:49 AM

get the shotties from the gun store behind you, kill one and take their gun, just dont get surrounded

pending on what level youre ate, u can take a sword to em and kill em in like 4 hits

8/21/2006 10:04:44 AM

meh

i'm in the original hideout (security room) with like 12 hours to go

i've got like two full shottys and a sniper

still gotta make it through paradise to the bathroom to get to wonderland then to north plaza

8/21/2006 10:13:03 AM

those fuckers take gunshots like champs, i recommend making them come to you around a corner and whacking away with a chainsaw or sword. at lvl 44 they go down like zombies with my meat cleaver.

[Edited on August 21, 2006 at 10:29 AM. Reason : if you have a decent big of health you can just run (make sure to zig zag) and get past]

8/21/2006 10:29:06 AM

TIP FOR THE SPECIAL FORCES GUYS

pick them up and throw them...it will automatically kill them...either run up behind them and press x+a for the face plant, suplex, or the throw and they will die...it's much easier than shooting them.

8/21/2006 12:10:46 PM

well all you need for triple chainsaws is Criminal Biography and Engineering]

i guess survival gives you 1.5x healing power?

what about entertainment?

8/21/2006 12:15:14 PM

you only have double chainsaws entertainment makes them triple.

survival gives you double healing.

molotov cocktails are awesome too.

8/21/2006 4:46:07 PM

engineering doubles chainsaws

criminal biography doubles bladed weapons

hence triple chainsaws

trust me i finally got the hang of the game last night using those...there might be other ways, but i mowed through the grocery store guy, the fat cop, the cultists, etc using that strategy

but either way, triple chainsaws and constant access through the wonderland/paradise bathroom tunnel is the shit

8/21/2006 4:48:17 PM

how do you collect the bombs?

my new strategy might be to take the motorcycle through, grab one bomb, then go get a new motorcycle

i can't imagine cutting through all of those zombies

8/21/2006 5:10:34 PM

you definitely want a motorcycle or car...doing it on foot is almost impossible

8/21/2006 5:17:30 PM

yeah, it is the biggest bitch in the game. even if you know where they all are that faggot still can blow ur shit up if ur not careful.

8/21/2006 5:38:48 PM

take the motorcycle to near the butcher...get that bomb then get the truck and do the rest

and a useful note

engineering, entertainment, and criminal biography add THREE icons to your weapons (small chainsaws in particular)...i was referring to this as TRIPLE CHAINSAWS because of the three icons, but essentially it QUADRUPLES their strength making it the best handheld weapon in the game by far.

Can you get a car down there? I thought that the barrier prevented it.

8/21/2006 6:00:16 PM

you take the motorcycle down there first

then get in a door and blow carlito's shit up

then go find the bomb with the other van beside it

drive the other van to the rest of the bombs

8/21/2006 6:03:50 PM

what kinda weapons you using to blow his shit up? i shot him a bunch but just said fuck it.

8/21/2006 6:13:06 PM

shotgun, uzi, molotov cocktail, heavy machine gun, real mega buster...any of those will do the trick...just get him stuck at an angle and blast away at him...you don't HAVE to kill him though and it won't mess up the "true ending"

8/21/2006 6:22:46 PM

DAMMIT

I FINALLY GOT CARLITO AND COLLECTED ALL OF THE BOMBS - BUT THEN MY FUCKING CAR WOULDN'T START AND I DIDN'T MAKE IT OUT.

8/21/2006 7:16:49 PM

i must play this game

someone invite me over

dang, sounds like a movie

8/21/2006 8:16:47 PM

probably ran into too many explosive cannisters or walls. it happens.

8/21/2006 8:44:00 PM

and carlito rammed the shit out of it

8/21/2006 9:35:11 PM

GOT ENDING A, just finally said fuck it and ran through the mall and didn't worry with the special forces

waited with isabella till they pulled out (no homo) and went to the helipad

now i got it saved at overtime mode

8/22/2006 9:09:45 AM

oh yeah i figured out a fucking simple way to do the bomb mission if you have the chainsaws

take the motorcycle down, go to the first bomb, take care of it, go towards the next, etc

when Carlito finally gets to where you are, run up to his driver side door and hack it a few times with the chainsaw...no need to worry about Carlito while you get the remaining bombs

8/22/2006 10:31:49 AM

the best fight overall was the second carlito battle in the entrance plaza

shit was dramatic the first time through

one of those times when you both could take one hit and die and i get the first and final shot off

8/22/2006 11:00:16 AM

i saved like 34 people...man i dunno how you'd get the Saint achievement

8/22/2006 11:21:19 AM

yeah i got 29. one i accidentally killed myself in the elevator by hacking her with a katana...oops.
