Capcom details Dead Rising 3 co-op

Online mode allows players to jump in and out of friend's game at any time with progression carrying over to their own game.

180 Comments

Microsoft and Capcom Vancouver have released new details about the online co-op mode for the Xbox One launch title Dead Rising 3.

No Caption Provided

In the online mode, players can jump in or out of a friend's game at any time. All progression and experience points achieved in a friend's game will carry back to their own game, Microsoft said.

In addition, all missions completed in a friend's game will also be registered as "complete" in their own, making it so players will never need to go back and replay a co-op mission.

In Dead Rising 3's co-op mode, players will drop into the boots of Dick, a "wisecracking trucker." According to his description, Dick sees Dead Rising 3 main character Nick Ramos as his best chance of escaping Los Perdidos alive and will play a "key role" in the story.

In addition to detailing Dead Rising 3's co-op mode, Capcom also revealed "super-combo weapons" for the game. This new tier of combo weapons requires at least three components to craft and features "unique abilities that let you decimate crowds of zombies with devastating effect."

Examples provided include the ultimate powershout (a concussive horn made of traffic cones), the ultimate grim reaper (a flaming scythe made of a katana sword, scythe, gas canister, and mask), and the massive bomb, described as a mini-nuke that obliterates all zombies close by.

Dead Rising 3 is an Xbox One exclusive and will be released as a launch title for the platform on November 22. Its gameworld is larger than the first two installments combined.

cut him some slack. These drones can only debate when they have you outnumbered.

I think his link to the hivemind has been severed, so he's having some trouble coming up with coherent things to say.

@sammoth Yes, i will apologize to it for giving you the ability to breathe, since you only seem to be a poor soul that has no direction and common sense.

but don't worry, seems M$ is working on some new tech for you. Just don't be disappointed. later on.

@angryguy77 it went like this and you can ask any that was at EVO

the dude came, they yelled at him, and booed.

then the announcer made the intro. we were quiet a bit.

then came the demo matches, some were booing, some were cheering.

the announcer made the XBONE only announcement, it was greatly booed.

@angryguy77 @Simulator_Shock @sammoth I'm pretty sure KI was already announced as an Xbone exclusive back at E3. EVO happened after E3.

@sammoth @FULGOREY2K @RandomRansom The game was booed before the demo even started, because MS was in the thick of the DRM issue that week, and these reps (not even MS, sadly) were standing in front of a room full of angry gamers. They took the brunt of what should have been directed at MS.

Lots of people say KI is fantastic.

I felt bad for the devs, actually.

Anyway, this is a ridiculous argument, KI looks like a cool fighting game.

I'm looking forward to seeing how the kinect works with this. I know it will alert the zombies if it hears you, I just wonder if there will be any other features.

The game just looks like it will be a blast. Hope it delivers.

I'm 100% confident it will work just fine.

It has been demoed and even IGN said it worked great.

But please continue the hate...I need the laughs.

@MAGIC-KINECT By 2015 the Kinect 3.0 will be released with Illumiroom and everyone who purchased the 2.0 will be stuck with the same disappointment as us 1.0 adopters

"We know the illumiroom isn't happening with the 2.0 version, so Microsoft will eventually develop for it once they can get the costs down. Until then, the 2.0 will suffer the same fate as the 1.0 especially considering that Microsoft won't or can't show how the upgraded hardware benefits games. It's not that hard to read the tea leaves"

"By 2015 the Kinect 3.0 will be released with Illumiroom and everyone who purchased the 2.0 will be stuck with the same disappointment as us 1.0 adopters"

Our posts are filled with cautious optimism, yours are stated as fact.

Again, I've yet to see you say something positive about the system. Everything you say is rehashed bashing. If you don't like the system, that's great, but when you repeat yourself and parrot lines that every other hater says, you are trolling.

If you prefer the ps4, then by all mean knock yourself out. I'm sure you will enjoy it, and I hope you do tbh.

the thing is, many of us are just tired of seeing the same thing said over and over about how evil, or stupid MS is, or how the system sucks. It's time to move on. We all enjoy the same hobby, we all like reading about our system of choice, lets at least give the people, who we have a common interest, the respect to have a conversation that doesn't revolve around defending the machine they intend to buy.

@angryguy77 Should I have posted "IMO" after every sentence? Of course it's opinion, that's what forums are for and everyone here is posting theirs. Some are positive, some are negative, mine are negative based on poor experiences with the 360, it's no more or less valid than anyone elses

I'm telling you to like it, but you're speaking as though your opinion is fact. Could the device flop? yes, but it also has more potential. It is more advanced than the first one was.

You don't have to like it, but you also don't need to tell people they're wrong for being excited for it.

I've yet to see you post anything positive about the X1, calling you a troll is based on prior experience reading your posts.

@northArrow @angryguy77 What about cut scene, mocap and facial animation in Spark? face/body overlay? UI navigation? Petting a fuzzy monkey? Hollering at Zombies?

There are so many things already coming down the pipes, and the console hasn't even dropped yet. Cautious optimism never hurt anyone.

@angryguy77 Kinect doesn't depend on illumiroom, but of all the features it might have had, that was the only one that interested me.

I'll admit am a little afraid of Kinect based on the experience of 1.0. I didn't enjoy what it added to Mass Effect 3 and Skyrim, (I found it more of a hassle than anything else) and I certainly don't want every game to require those features. If it does, I'll end up losing my favorite hobby.

Looking around corners in FPS, or audibles in Madden? I'll Pass.

I don't know why everyone is a "troll" if they don't spew out nothing but praise for a console.

Kinect doesn't depend on illumiroom.

You must think very high of yourself to be so confident in your predictions before the device has even been released.

I actually think you're a bit nervous that the Kinect might add some touches to a game that will make it better.

I'm not saying this thing is going to be the greatest thing since sliced bread, but if used right, it does have the potential to add to the experience.

I don't understand why you drones hate on a product you have no intention of buying. Why can't people just like what they want?

You need to grow up. Right now, there is a thread about the eye on the ps4 page, you don't see me going over there trolling....

@malokevi No, they're going to ask people to upgrade the hardware by purchasing a more powerful Kinect. with added features. Similar to what they're doing now and what we do with pretty much every piece of tech hardware in our house. Come on Malokevi, I expected you to understand that

@northArrow @angryguy77 Kinect comes with every console. If you think they are going to iterate the hardware, then you might as well go as far to say they will iterate the console hardware itself.

Which is retarded.

Just think about it, before you speak...
