have u guys actully played dead rising?? i played the demo at my mates place yesterday and almost fell in love. Now i would call myself a bit of a wuss!! most zombie games scare the sh** outa me. (I hate the fact that your alone with nothing but ur wits and a shotgun to help you survive, somehow i finished Ressi evil 0 and 4 tho!!)
But Dead rising is something COMPLETLY different, the zombies are slow, you see a good 100 on your screen at a time... they are slowly surrounding you and your sitting there with a huge hammer smashing them to bits!! The fear of this game is almost non existant!! i picked a pie and shoved it in a zombies face making them completly useless, u can also do this with Cones!!! if you can make this map as addicting at that!!! ill eat my xbox!!

Do you need any sounds from dead rising? If you do hit me up, I don't mind getting tons of sounds from it. Oh I think a secret 2 player mode would be pretty kickass maybe?
Sure, thatd be awesome, just load up like around 50 sounds and send em'!!!
As someone who owns and has beat Dead Rising, I believe my sage advice would be helpful. Some important features from the game are (Your map is yours so these are just suggestions and facts):
1. Their is a security room only assessable to humans, (through a vent on mall roof) the security room is where all survivors are brought to be rescued.
2. Psychopaths; which are found whilst on scoop missions (side missions).
Are one of the main forms of experience (PP: Prestige Points). Their are about ten psychopaths throughout the game.
3. The max level which can be attained is 50.
4. Their are countless side missions (Scoops) which are started when you answer calls from the Willamette Mall janitor. Otis. Scoops are based on the current time and are usually escort missions (bringing survivors to the security room).
5. There are a plethora of skills that can be achieved in the game at certain levels.
6. There is a plot to the game involving conspiracies, Mcdonalds, and massacres.
Throughout the timeline of the game your mission is to investigate why the zombie outbreak happened.
7. There is a megabuster weapon. A real(lasers), and a fake(foamballs).
8. There is an underground tunnel connecting parts of the mall together. It is called the matinence tunnel.
9. Cars can be rode and are the ultimate zombie killing machines.
10. There are grenade like objects called Queens(a queen wasp), when they are released they kill all zombies on screen. To obtain a Queen you have to find them amongst the wreckage of dead bodies(they spawn randomly after killing zombies).
11. You can hold a max of 12 items.
12. There are three levels of movement for Frank West.
13. You can have up to 20 health bars.

Ill take those things into account. Thanks.
I don't see how it will be possible to put the features of this game into starcraft and make it fun. What are you going to be doing for gameplay?
Urmom, ill show you on sc when i find you.
I've got all the weapons you had on your list done, just finishing up with some miscellaneous sounds for you. I better get to play

. By the way im in Oo as well so if you want any additional expertise in the game clue me in

. I've already thought about the leveling system among other things. By the way I couldn't send you a pm, your inbox is full i think.
EDIT: I just remembered something, I hope its played on battle.net for hyper triggers.
Okay, I for one love this game very very much. I have spent several (and when I say serveral I mean like 260) hours on this game and I still can't get enough of it. I was also making a map after this game but I can never find enough time to work on it. Anyway since it will be a long while before I can actually find the time to work on mine I wanted to help you out a little. From the looks of the weapons I assume that you are going alongside the game. Considering all the weapons you have named are also usalbe on the game. I've beaten all the modes (Infinite mode is a female dog !!!) I've unlocked all the achievments. Im lvl 50, So I know quite abit about this game.
Okay here we go...QUOTE

Extreme 1Player Zombie RPG Map
1 player? The 360 game is 1 player but it has alot of potential
of being a multiplayer game. I was very disappointed with the lack of xbox live support it had. You can easily make this into a multiplayer game and I think most people would find that alot better.

Storyline / Introduction
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In this game there is one player who can go around the mall just taking anything u could possible find - from skateboards, and soccer balls - to - Chainsaws and shotguns - you can do alot. Theres hundreds to thousands of zombies to kill, and to get killed by
In a mall full of zombies... 1 man stands alone... thousands of possible weapons... zombies coming by the gross... 24 hours to live or die and you choose your path...
The game has three modes:
-72 Hour Mode- 72 hours (3 days)
-Overtime Mode- 24 hours (1 day)
-Infinite Mode- Last until you die
I would recommend the three day period instead of the 1 day one. The real story takes place in 72 hour mode, and the game is very time oreinted. Your watch is one of your best friends. If you don't start a certain mission at a certain time, the survivors in that mission will be killed by zombies.
Find other people in the mall ( If any survive by the time you get there ) and get missions from your concerned friends on your cell phone giving suggestions of what to do next... Find your own way of strategy to play this game, from staying in one spot and camping doing no quests, or doing quests, gaining score from the quests and completely owning the zombies with a stick or a chainsaw whatever suits you better, and please keep your hands on and at your weapon at all times during this long 24 hour ride. Thank You. Enjoy.
Okay assuming your going by the game:
You are a photojournalist named Frank. Your enter the small town of Willamette via helicopter. Upon arivial you notice the town has been completely blocked off by the national guard. As you fly over the town you are spotted and followed by three of the military's black hawk helicopters. In a desprate attempt to capture the story of your life you tell the pilot to let you down on top of a mall, and you give him explicit instructions to meet you back on the mall in exactly three days.

Features
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Player Interface
It basically plays out like an RPG with an item system where u can pick up to about 20-30 items (undecided amount) and use them against zombies using about 4 different genres of weapons to fast melee, slow melee, long range or short range.
-What's new in your map that others have not done before?

[/Battle]
Bad News, My Computer Is Suffering a bad case of technical difficulties, can't get you those sounds anymore. Well it's very unlikely now.
Sounds cool Icy you should get some screenshots soon

if you need a tester for it ill help you do it
Ill put up some screenies soon... but if I feel like it i'll let you test. Thanks for the feedback.
i've hoped you've been working on this map Element, instead of just harrassing me

I've played the game a few times through, and own it, PM me if you have questions about it, or if you want to start before you get the game.
ey icy

hows this map going?
btw if u want or if its too late.. i can make a much better signature for this map if u want 1 that is.
but dont forget you got that other signature in the sig shop

Why dont you keep the theme, but change the title? So you dont have to worry about beating the entire game and getting crap for every little detail you put off, or mess up on? Just an idear

I would love to see a newspaper as a weapon, heh heh. Very ineffective!
Marandule1: Sure hennius, make me another, i hav saved both the 1's u made me in a file.
I'd be glad to see what u can come up with.
Night: Sure ill make a newspaper weapon.
Reichwehr: I am changing around the game a little
icy, just how long before we can do another beta test?
ok doki... ill make it alot bigger to show the carnage of zombies hehe

hope the rest of the map goes nice and smoothly.
when will this be finished if you mind me asking?
ADDITION:

here you go mate

Zera: We can do another beta test in... 2 weeks or so...
Marandule: Thanks for the sig, it will be done in early 07
ADDITION:
Zera, Beta test time in 11 days.
Im getting my xbox360 in 10 days. That means I'll start getting alot of progress on this and my DR game on the 360. The time has come for me to restart progress on this.
I hope I'll be done by february... I have to completely re-do the terrain.
Hm, I just thought of something, you could do more damage with a bible (instead of a newspaper) or even the Sears catalogue! And you can have it as a double weapon (a book in each hand)!! My god! I'm so smart!
Wow... still havent gotten your 360 yet eh Icy?

Btw, my friend beat the game and the ending is... well its gay and corny.
I got the 360 over last weekend, and started playing, and i must say its fun. But im going to do some extensive care on the map because its messed up a bit. It might take a while ;D. BTW, my main comp's internet is down atm... for a while probably too so dont count on much sen activity.
man this topic has been around forever and still really nothing constructive to see YET...
