Reporter's Notebook

Edit

Dead Rising
Overview (cases/scoops) • Books • Clothing • Food • Psychopaths • Stores • Survivors • Weapons
For Dead Rising 2 see Chuck's Notebook

The reporter's notebook is a key item in Dead Rising. It is where Frank keeps track of the psychopaths or survivors he meets, with helpful notes on them. The notebook is accessible from the Pause Menu (press Start button during game play to access this menu). Use the left thumbstick D-pad left to cycle through the profiles.[1]

Status[]

There are five possible statuses for the survivors that Frank has encountered.

  • Safe: Survivors marked as safe have been brought back to the Security Room and are awaiting rescue.
  • Dead: Survivors marked as dead have been killed, either by psychopaths, zombies, other survivors, or Frank himself.
  • Undead: Survivors marked as undead have been killed and zombified, and their undead forms have been seen. Killing their zombified forms will not change this status.
  • Lost: Survivors marked as lost have been located, but due to other circumstances can no longer be found.
  • Located: Survivors marked as located have been seen and possibly escorted, but are neither safe nor dead.

If a perfect playthrough is to be done, then by the end of the game, approximately 1 person should be labeled Located, 49 should be Safe, 24 should be Dead, 4 should be Undead, and nobody should be Lost.
