Hey Reddit, Stepping back into Dead Rising 2....

During the release of Dead Rising 2, there was someone who worked on the project, I remember him questioning certain things about the RC on PC.

Something along the likes of, "wait there isn't windowed mode on release? I could have sworn that was in there"

Can someone help me find this guy and see if he can relay to the our problems to the correct team.

-- Following list of bugs/features: --

  • No Windowed Mode (even though it was supposed to be in there, from what I read)
  • Co-op NOT working when your mate bought dlc packs and you can't join (even though you downloaded the support packs) because it says you don't have the right content to join the game. [Temporary Fix: Delete DLC from both user's computer. Attempt to download again at the risk of losing time trying to join each other.]
  • Wireless xbox360 controller not supported (I have a wired one, but my mate has a working wireless controller. DR2 is the only game, he has that supports the wired pad only.) --- End List --

I have one other complaint but I don't think it should be part of the list. I have a +3300, its a socket 939 (I know, I know I probably should upgrade some time soon, when I have the funds) with a 9600 gt. I can barely play this game, only place I don't have 15-20 fps is the safe room and the roof top with the helicopter. I beat the game like this on S ranking.

Yet I have DMC4, Dead Space, SFIV, SC2 at 100+ Fps at 1440 x 900 and run TF2 (which by now is greatly taxing on my cpu) at 30-40 in battle. These are all high settings, except for TF2. For crying out loud, I can run Crysis way better than DR2.

How is it possible this game can require so much CPU power? I have tried every setting Lowest to highest and there isn't a significant difference. That is why I need windowed mode, please this should be a standard by now.

Sincerely,

Disgruntled Gamer, who loves your game.
