System requirements
The recommended, as well as the minimum, characteristics of your computer should be serious enough, according to the official instructions. But if you read the forums about Dead Rising 3, reviews for games of this level suggest that real requests are somewhat simpler.
So, you need the Windows operating system, it doesn't matter if it's the seventh or the eighth. The game will not work on Macintosh or Linux. The second option is the Xbox console. Processor - minimum Intel Core i3-3220 @ 3300 MHz or equivalent. Better - Intel Core i5-4570 @ 3200 MHz.
Reviews for the game Dead Rising 3 leave no doubt about the "dampness" of the product. Next, we will get acquainted with the opinions of users.
pros
The only and unconditional advantage is universally recognized as a variety of weapons. This is almost the only entertainment in this game. And what else can you put the dead?
The majority also responds positively to the size and openness of the world map. Now it will be possible to do whatever you want. But the possibilities of the game will not allow much. Therefore, the choice is not very large, but more on that later.
When it comes to Dead Rising 3, the reviews stop being positive when it comes to graphics. Most positively refer to its characteristics, however, bugs and shortcomings cannot be covered with enthusiastic responses alone. We'll talk about this a little lower.
Minuses
There is a lot of controversy about this, but everyone agrees on one thing. The game is still "raw", if it is finalized, it will turn out to be an excellent action game. But not now…
So, let's start in order. The first thing that annoys most users is monotony. The lack of a pronounced plot affects the fact that after a couple of days there is absolutely nothing to do.
It is worth opening any review of the game Dead Rising 3, and you will read that this is an amazing zombie meat grinder. Not more. In this part of the triquel, the dead simply act as a herd of sheep for slaughter. However, this is an amazing discharge for a splash of negative emotions after a hard day at work.
The last thing that touches some is the limited time for the campaign. Developers allocated only six days. Many simply do not have time to run in free mode, explore all the nooks and crannies of the city.
So, as we have seen, the game has its pros and cons. However, while in Dead Rising 3 (reviews do not lie), the negative prevails.
Plot
As usual, an epidemic of an unknown virus breaks out. The city is covered by mutating people. Corpses come to life and walk the streets in search of fresh meat.
The main character's name is Nick, he is a mechanic. Since three days have passed since the first outbreaks of the disease, there are a lot of walking dead in the settlement.
We learn that Los Perdidos will be bombed in six days. Therefore, there is not much time, you need to try to get away from the epicenter of the explosion.
Now let's continue the review of Dead Rising 3 with a brief description of the storyline.
In the prologue, we need to look around a little, get used to the environment. We are trying to get through the tunnel to the opposite side, but we come across a blockage. With loud curses we return to the city. Now the task is to find shelter. It is located in a cafe. Fortunately, during the day the ghouls are not very aggressive, and you can move around quite comfortably.
The next step is to get from the cafe to the garage. For this, a car is useful, but for now we are making our way to it, building a modified weapon from a sledgehammer and a saw.
When you complete this mission, you will be able to play co-op mode in Dead Rising 3. Reviews on the forums are full of admiring messages. If you find some unusual costume and gather a team of friends, you will have an amazing party!
There will be eight chapters in total, after passing each of which you will receive blueprints for new weapons. The bosses are not very difficult. All that is required to eliminate them is to hold down the Alt key and click on the buttons that are displayed on the monitor.
Weapon Secrets
You have no doubt already heard about the amazing customization of the process of bullying the walking dead. Let's look into the features of Dead Rising 3. User reviews contain descriptions of the best combinations of improvised means.
So, the championship was given to a mixture of a skating rink with a flamethrower. She cannot boast of aesthetics, but experience will help to get, and it will be easy to have fun with such a vehicle.
You say there is no magic in the modern world? Come on! A battle staff that shoots lightning, don't you want it? Connect a traffic light (you heard right!) with a battery (for example, a battery). The walking dead are stacked in packs, and the electricity continues to hit everyone around! Reviews of Dead Rising 3 are full of similar ways to accelerate character leveling. And if you add cylinders with combustible gases to the staff? This spectacle is beyond words. Set the maximum resolution and experiment. You will be amazed!
And another good thing for pumping experience is to climb a hill and start making noise.
When a crowd of ghouls gathers, use a charge of electricity. When the battery runs out, propane is used first, then nitrogen. The pumping is lightning fast!
Features of the PC version
The aspect ratio of the screen must be exactly 16:9, some monitors from 16:10 may have black bars around the screen. The distortion is not fundamental, but completely unpleasant, as if you are watching a movie.
The second feature is that the game is tailored for consoles and kinect. Here you have to approach individually. Maybe the problem is in the hardware, software, or a crookedly installed game.
If something doesn't work out, feel free to ask questions about Dead Rising 3. Discussion, help and advice are provided to newcomers everywhere on the game forums.
Another feature is that after minimizing the window to tray, the soundtrack of the game continues to work. In addition, the processor does not stop loading. Such shortcomings, whether they are emissions, bugs or inconsistencies, are completely absent in the console version of the product.
Add-ons
When pre-ordering, access to updates and additions released for the console was provided. If you have read the review of the game Dead Rising 3, then most likely you have noticed that it is the console version that is the main and finally finished product.
So, we have a few new items. The Untold Stories of Los Perdidos and Fallen Angel will be added to the Apocalyptic Edition (as the PC version is called).
Expansions of the main storyline, new chains of tasks and opportunities for mastering the world. Now it all depends on your preferences and wishes.
Thus, we plunged into the environment of a strange and frightening city with crowds of the walking dead on the streets. If your computer allows you to play such games, Dead Rising 3 is worth a try.
Good luck to you, dear readers, in the military affairs of virtual reality!
