Dead Rising 3 Message Board  

I have completed this on the Xbox One, and love the "free roam" adventures of having the game completed. I got this on PC for the controls, and hopefully slightly better graphics. I realize it is way too soon to see if anyone has a save game so that I don't have to play the main chapters all over again, but I was reading on a couple of sites that we will not be able to share save games, that they will be linked directly to Steam. Does anyone know anything about this? Hopefully there will be some saves online soon. Thanks!

i think you can use other saves. i preordered dr3 but i couldnt resist using the pirate version. the legit version used the pirated save without doing anything.

@raymondtoonen Do you happen to have a 100% save, or know where I can find one? UPDATE: Sorry, I just now realized you are probably referring to your own personal save.

you must wait. the game is just released and a lot of people have problems including me.

@raymondtoonen If you don't mind my asking, what kind of problems are out there? I had a family member download this for me on my Steam account once it was released at home, but I have been busy at work. I have been at the fire dept. running calls all day, and haven't had a chance to really try it. I have my Alienware laptop with me, but the dept. would frown on me using that much data to download it here, so I will have to wait 48 hours until I get home. Are there any major bugs or issues?

Besides the poor performance due to poor optimization, I get frequent random crashes during game play. I've read reports that people have been able to fix the crashing by rolling back to the GeForce 335.23 drivers and at least so far I can confirm that this works. (Haven't played enough yet to really confirm this)

The poor optimization is currently my biggest gripe with this game. It really is poor... The loading before entering the menu sometimes takes over 5 minutes, incredibly poor performance during game play which seems to happen at random. I can have hundreds of zombies in front of me and it performs fine, then I enter a quiet place and the performance just drops to 5/10fps.

That is horrible, and sloppy work in my opinion. I haven't had time to really dig into and research this online, been way too busy at work. Do you guys know if they plan on addressing any of these issues? I won't be playing for at least another 48 hours, plus some sleep time so hopefully by then it will be partially sorted out. I did read online that I need to disable the 30fps cap, and disable motion blur.

I highly doubt that there will be any issues with being able to plant uploads into the steam cloud.

If the game is already picking up pirated copies save game files that leads me to believe that it is saved in my documents which should pretty much answer your question ^^

I haven't gone digging yet but I'm sure you can check for yourself if you need to use the steam cloud to get your save game then it's pretty simple I'm sure there are a few tutorials online.
