So the 2 hard achievements in dead rising that most agree on is the Saint and Transmissionary, Saint you have to save 50 people, Transmissionary you have to take all of Otis's calls. I was working on these two achievements the last 2 days. I spent my whole 2 days off doing trail and error, and early this morning out of the 53 people you can save I had 51, and I believe up to that point I also had all of Otis's calls.

But I made one fatal mistake, the last story mission I completed was 6-1, which is where I should have ended it, but I went ahead and went into the security room and started mission 7-1. (SPOILER) The one here you have to stop the bombs.(SPOILER END)Well, I for some reason decided to ignore the mission and get the last 4 people I needed. After saving them I saved my progress, I decided to wait around for time to expire and get to the helipad. So I went to the bathroom in my apartment to waste some time, all of a sudden I hear noise that's not regular security room noise.

And bam, the end screen happened where it tally's you stats, I was confused, I checked my people saved screen and it showed I saved no one, so I reloaded my save to find out what happened. Well it turns out I saved with 15 minutes left (gametime) to complete mission 7-1 (SPOILER) so Carlito achieved blowing up the mall.(SPOILER END)So I didn't even save myself, and I didn't even have enough time to get to the maintenance tunnels. :evil: So all my hard work and careful planning turned out not careful enough. But heck I got to see the F ending. :oops:
