Dead Rising 2 Multiplayer Confirmed

Capcom has been very tight lipped about facets of Dead Rising 2, with much of the information about the zombie killing action sequel released in one press release and a few screens. IGN was keeping their fingers crossed that there would be something – anything – released about the upcoming game at GDC, and luckily, they managed to glean a few little nuggets from the show. During the Platform Independent Shader Development with mental mill – Making of Dead Rising 2 panel, Izmeth Siddeek, the character art lead from Blue Castle Games detailed how the development team needed to focus on creating large amount of characters that had to be lit and shaded properly, as well as a number of other design hurdles overcome with the mental mill program. Thanks to the program's shaders, the Blue Castle team was able to create unique eye and cloth shaders, as well as skin shading that looked natural and realistic that could be applied to large numbers of characters and zombies on screen at one time.

I swear if they f up the SP campaign because of a new multiplayer mode IM GONNA BE PISSED. If it's co-op then that's a god-send. But multiplayer in Dead Rising? Come on only morons would plea for that in a Dead Rising game.

Interesting timing. This retrospective was released just a few days ago: https://youtu.be/Et-cKSrWuc...

Darksonic222135d ago

Ah no, I just felt like writing it as I started playing the game again and wanted to offer up my opinions 😁

InklingGirl2135d ago

I was thinking the same thing when I saw the title.

Complacency and new teams who didn't understand what made the series special.

Darksonic222135d ago

Seems like there was just a ton of infighting aswell and so many more issues. Honestly sadly Dead Rising 5 before it was cancelled sounded nothing like dead rising, nothing learnt from. Dr4 at all.

ColdSin2135d ago

DR4 should have not been made anyways. DR3 closed everything nicely.

Check out the vid i posted above.

MadLad2135d ago

They're a solid channel. I always click on their vids, unless it's a series/game I simply have no interest in.

RamRod882135d ago

They took away the depth and charm of the game that made it fun and interesting, and made it into a generic zombie killing game.

DeadManMMX2135d ago

This was the series the got me to buy an Xbox 360. The first one was so good. It still had horror elements. As it went on it became kind of a parody. Never forget getting Zombie Genecider achievement and then restarting the game to get the Mega Buster. That thing was monstrous against enemies.

Gamerking822135d ago

But you never know it might be RISING again someday .

moriarty18892134d ago

haha yes it may....good one.

The paddle bat and string ball from Fallout should be considered too.

Chaos_Order2198d ago

I would've included Tira's ring blade from Soul Calibur.
