For the notebook, see Chuck's Notebook.

In Dead Rising 2, there are over a hundred survivors that can be found throughout Fortune City. However, not all manage to survive the outbreak, as dozens die, even after the initial chaos. They can be escorted to the Safe House, although Chuck has the option to kill them, let them die, leave them, etc. without being penalized. Successfully escorting survivors or at least getting them to join Chuck's party will award him a hefty PP bonus. Some survivors also give Chuck rewards when successfully escorting them to safety, such as Money, Zombrex, Combo Cards, etc.

Types of Survivors[]

Survivors have much-improved AI which allow them to comply to movement and battle. Zombies will focus more on Chuck rather than the survivors, but will still attack them if Chuck doesn't attend to them, or if he is somewhere the zombies cannot get to. Some survivors have unique AIs and must be escorted under certain conditions. While escorting survivors, be careful that survivors are close to Chuck when he changes zones, otherwise the survivors will not come into the new area with Chuck. This can be frustrating, as it is somewhat time consuming to go back to recover them, and most of the time the doors to the exit are crowded with zombies who will attack while Chuck waits for them to catch up.

Normal[]

These survivors are the most common, they can be equipped with almost any weapon in the game with the exception of combo weapons and heavy weapons, which if the player tries to equip them with, they will reply with an insult or a refusal. Survivors also comment on what Chuck equip them with. Giving them an unsuitable weapon will result in them complaining, and giving them an acceptable weapon will result in them thanking Chuck.

Examples: Vikki Taylor, Denyce Calloway, Danni Bodine.

Advanced Unarmed Combat[]

Very few survivors met around Fortune City can actually kill zombies very effectivley without the need of a weapon. These survivors can perform punches and kicks that can kill a zombie with one or two blows. When surrounded by a group a zombies the survivor with perform a punch while rotating in place knocking any zombies around them to the floor or dead.

Examples: Cora Russel, Nina Suhr, Summer Chavez.

Refuse Weapons[]

Few survivors use weapons (most commonly a metal briefcase) containing winnings they have won during their stay in Fortune City or stolen money before or during the outbreak. They will not let go of their item or accept food/healing items due to them already holding something and not giving it up. This means Chuck should be careful when escorting these survivors.

Examples: Royce St. John, Walter Morris, Woodrow Rutherford.

Carry an Item[]

Few survivors will request Chuck to carry an item for them. If Chuck drops the item, the survivor(s) may act erratically, running all over the place and ignoring orders. The only way to stop them is to pick up the item as soon as possible. When reaching the Safe House, the item Chuck was requested to hold will not be on him anymore.

Examples: Bessie Kent, Erica Mayes, Rosa Collins.

Unable to Walk[]

Some survivors are injured, drunk, too scared, etc. and will ask Chuck to carry them or hold them over his shoulder. They also will not accept a weapon but they will accept food. The Leadership magazine affects these survivors so they don't have to be carried and they will run like everyone else, but they still will not accept a weapon.

Examples: Kristin Harris, Esther Alwin, Tammy Blaine.

Fulfilling Requests[]

There are some survivors who will request something or want Chuck to do something for them before they will join Chuck. This can range from having to possess a certain item, requesting a drink, or having to pay them a certain sum of money. After these requests are completed, the survivors will join Chuck and can be escorted back to the Safe House.

Examples: Janus Razo, Bill Montagu, Linette Watkins.

Escorting Survivors[]

Survivor AI in Dead Rising 2 is much improved over its predecessor, and Chuck is not required to keep a constant eye on their progress. This is partly due to the fact that if Chuck is nearby, zombies will focus on him rather than survivors. Unlike the first game, they will follow Chuck's commands easily, and also follow him everywhere, rather than stopping for no reason and opening themselves to attack.

"...[The] most important [improvement], is the survivor behaviour. No longer do survivors stand around like cretins, advertising themselves as free lunch. In Dead Rising 2 they put up a fight. They're basically invincible, at least until you thwack them accidentally (and repeatedly) over the head with a wrench. If zombies grab them, they'll fight them off. They'll push their way through the crowd. And most relieving of all, they can actually follow Chuck in a competent manner, instead of getting stuck on walls, signs, or discarded Servebot (sic) heads. Their pathfinding is excellent, and other than occasionally being left in the previous area and forcing you to navigate two lengthy loading screens to get them back, they provide none of the headaches that the Willamette survivors induced."[9]

Escorting Survivors tutorial[]

When a survivor first joins Chuck, a tutorial screen appears.

Dead rising 2 tutorial escorting survivors justin tv

v · d · e

  • There are survivors of the outbreak scattered throughout Fortune City. Escort anyone you find back to the Safe House, though some might not come with you willingly...
  • Press the Ybutton to call a survivor to you, or press Left trigger + Ybutton to send them to a specific location.
  • Upon rescuing survivors, you will receive a large PP bonus!


Recruiting Survivors[]

Upon finding a survivor, simply press the Circle button / Template:Bbutton button or E key near them to begin the dialogue sequence. In the process of a conversation, Chuck may have to reply multiple times to convince them to follow him. Some missions also require Chuck to carry out certain actions, such as having a certain weapon in his inventory, deliver food/drink, administer Zombrex, or have a particular survivor in his party. Once the survivor is convinced, they will join Chuck's party.

Giving Commands[]

Tapping the Triangle button / Ybutton button will have Chuck shout out random commands to keep up to any survivors in his party. This command has the effect of causing the survivors to stop their current actions and head towards Chuck. Using this command will cause any existing waypoints to be deactivated.

Tapping the Triangle button / Ybutton button while aiming with the R2 / RT will have Chuck direct any survivors in his party to a waypoint. Setting a new waypoint will cause the previous one to be deactivated.

Under Attack[]

If a survivor is under attack, he or she will call out for help, while fending off the zombie. He or she will eventually be able to escape its grasp and continue following Chuck, but they may have lost some health.

Health[]

The current health level of survivors is indicated on the green name bar. The proportion of the health bar that is green represents remaining health. When survivors have less than full health, Chuck can give them a food item to restore their health. Leaving an area which requires a loading screen without the survivor(s) close to Chuck will cause their health to slowly decrease until Chuck returns for them.

Defection[]

Survivors will defect from Chuck's party if he harms them repeatedly. Survivors that are recruited in groups will defect together if one of their own defects. Also, certain rescued survivors will defect from the Safe House if Chuck allows a mutiny to proceed. Defected survivors will be hostile towards Chuck.

Unnamed Victims[]

Many survivors survived the initial outbreak but were soon killed by the zombies. Here are some:
