- "Some people are holed up in the North Plaza gun shop. They've taken over Cletus' store!"
- —Otis Washington, Chop Till You Drop
Gun Shop Standoff is an unannounced scoop in Dead Rising. In Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop it was given the name Gun Shop Standoff.[1]
The scoop place is Huntin' Shack in the North Plaza in the early morning of the third day.
It involves three heavily armed survivors, Jonathan Picardsen, Brett Styles, and Alyssa Laurent, who have taken over the gun store.
Dead Rising[]
Three survivors, Brett Styles, Alyssa Laurent, and Jonathan Picardsen, have taken over Huntin' Shack. As Frank West first enters the store, all three survivors found inside fire at him. Frank turns around and exits the store, and the trio realize he's human. Jonathan goes up to Frank and asks what he wants with them.
Frank reveals that a helicopter is arriving to rescue them, and they should follow him back to the Security Room. However, the survivors do not believe Frank as they've seen the door is welded shut and demand a photo of the vent.
If Frank has taken a photograph of the rooftop air duct into the Security Room, the three gun-toting survivors agree to follow Frank and take refuge in the Security Room. If Jonathan is still talking to Frank, and has not agreed to join yet, and Frank starts to walk towards Alyssa and Brett behind the counter, the three will resume fire. Brett will also hit Jonathan in the crossfire.
Also, watch out for friendly fire from these three. If Frank is standing between them and a nearby zombie, he will be shot.
Chop Till You Drop[]
There are a few differences when the scoop is completed in Chop Till You Drop.
- Completion of this scoop and getting an S rank rewards Frank with the Ammo Belt.
- Taking pictures is disabled. In order to allow this scoop to be completed, two buttons can be pressed upon reaching the vent to simulate taking a picture.
- Cletus Samson will disappear from the Huntin' Shack during this scoop, but will return once the scoop has been completed.
- If the player unlocks this scoop, Greg Simpson's shortcut is inaccessible until this mission is complete.

Conversation with the trio

  Brett: Kill it! Alyssa: Brett! Here comes another one! Brett: Kill it! Alyssa: Eat this!
Brett: Wait!
Jonathan: You still breathin' there, buddy? Alyssa: Are you alive? Jonathan: You've got some real balls man. You got some business with us? Frank: There's a helicopter coming. It'll be here on Friday. I thought you might want a ride. Come with me, and you'll be out of this hell in no time. Jonathan: Where's it supposed to land? There's zombies everywhere! Alyssa: Zombies everywhere! Frank: There's a heliport on the roof, over in the Entrance Plaza. Jonathan: But the Security Room door's sealed! Sealed tight! A dead end! I saw it! I know what I saw! Frank: There's a duct on the roof of Paradise Plaza. It's a straight shot to the Security Room from there. Alyssa: Sounds fishy to me! Jonathan: Will you shut up for once, Alyssa! Jonathan: Not that I trust you completely either, man. Brett! What do you think? Brett: How bout some proof? Jonathan: You heard the man. Go find your DUCT and take a picture of it with the camera you got there. Then we can talk.
Frank: Feast your eyes on this. Jonathan: Looks kosher to me! Brett! Brett: Let's do it! Lead the way man.[2] |
Trivia[]
- Brett is carrying a Machinegun, the only time a Machinegun is available in 72 Hour Mode before the special forces enter the mall. If the player wants this gun, give Brett food or a different weapon and he will drop it.
- There is extra food on the gun shop counter which is only here during this scoop, including two Melons, a Cheese and some Wine bottles.
- The picture of the vent required has to be taken in the current playthrough.
- If Frank is not currently interacting with the trio, or in the correct area, then they will always die at 5pm. This is interesting, considering they are among the most well equipped survivors in the game.
