Here is the New Dead Rising 3 WR. Suggestions on new run categories?

2014-08-15 09:28:36 am

Hi all, as you might know I set the WR for DR3 a couple days ago with 1.41.52 but here is the new 1.40.07 set today.

http://www.twitch.tv/swingflip2014/c/4911245

I was aiming to set a sub 1.40 but got screwed by RNG quite heavily with driving and a jump.

Any who I am looking to run different categories and wondering what you guys would like to see from a DR3 run.

I am planning on a No weapon, No heal, Nightmare Speed Run which will be insanely hard but a fun challenge. I was also thinking of running each 4 of the DLC chapters as they will be nice and quick. (20 minutes a piece I guess?)

Has anyone got any ideas on new run categories for this game? Any good ones I will practice and post runs of them.

SDA Apprentice -- (3-1)

Hi swingflip and welcome to SDA! We hope you have been enjoying your stay so far. Smiley

While I have been tinkering with the idea of doing some speed runs for SDA, I haven't had the chance to do much at the immediate moment although I've been interested in doing a more for the game, such as the S ending, possible co-ops and the overly extensive Arcade game (whether if it is solo or with others).

There is also the Lost chapters that I've been playing around with, and while the game has been rather unfavorable when I tried to record some runs, I did get this one run completed. I was planning on waiting until I got the other three done first, although I might see for submitting it right now to go with the other DR3 run that is already in the queue. I have the run unlisted, but you should be able to see it right here:

I should also probably mention that this is actually an "older" run that I posted on the forums not too long ago and I have another video that is under 16 minutes. I might submit it just to get the ball rolling too, but we'll see what happens. If you are planning on doing a run, I hope this helps out some since I did what I could to try and optimize it. As for that thread, it was something like "Dead rising 3 co-op" that had my notes for Episodes 1 and 2. Need to dig that up.

Hi MAS looks good, A co-op run would be a great idea, I will need to find someone capable of running this game with.

I just checked out your video I might give this a run for it's money later today!

I am currently in the submission route but I am having to change the way I record my footage so I am just waiting for payday so I can get a capture device.

I just set a 1:39:11 http://www.twitch.tv/swingflip2014/c/4982913 for the main run.

I have attempted a no weapon - no heal - nightmare speed run. Which is extremely hard. However I have managed to get it down apart from dying trying to escape the metro at the end of the round.

You can't use any weapons, heal items it litterally slappers only! Apart from you have to use a handgun to destroy the cameras mission or you cant advance through the game (I tried for 2 hours to find a way to destroy them without weapons but it's impossible as they are protected by invisible walls.

I might create a wiki for DR3 running if there is a intrest in it.

http://www.twitch.tv/swingflip2014/c/4983767 Here is my benchmark using the current DR3 speed running rules.

17:12 - 25/08/2014 - I only ran this twice before doing the above run so it's very early days. Regarding DR3 speed runs the general rules for a legit DR3 run are:

Nightmare Mode
Single Segement
New Games Only (no resuming fresh game and skipping initial cutscene)
Timer starts on Load Claxon
Timer Finishes on the End Game Trigger (This will be different for the DLC's Ep1 is when screen is faded to black)

I will list all the current DR3 rules in the DRSR wiki to come.

Add me on Xbox MAS - "Swingflip" and we can discuss more DR3 running if you are interested
