Eight Survivor Rule

rdfs:comment

The Eight Survivor Rule is a rule and limit in Dead Rising, Dead Rising 2, and Dead Rising 2: Off the Record, in which there can only be 8 active survivors in Fortune City or Willamette Parkview Mall at once. These survivors are found in missions or scoops. The mission's survivors count toward the limit when the mission becomes active at certain specific times of the game (See Scoops or Missions for specific times). Each mission or scoop has a certain number of active survivors in it. If a player cannot see a mission or scoop, it is probably because of the eight survivor rule.

The Eight Survivor Rule is a rule and limit in Dead Rising, Dead Rising 2, and Dead Rising 2: Off the Record, in which there can only be 8 active survivors in Fortune City or Willamette Parkview Mall at once. These survivors are found in missions or scoops. The mission's survivors count toward the limit when the mission becomes active at certain specific times of the game (See Scoops or Missions for specific times). Each mission or scoop has a certain number of active survivors in it. Sometimes missions may involve 3 survivors but the mission only counts as having 2 active survivors since one of the survivors in that mission is killed off during a cutscene or spawns after the cutscene that opens the mission triggers.[] Usually only survivors that are visible BEFORE the cutscene for a mission triggers count as active survivors in Dead Rising 2. The player can see them while approaching the mission area.[] Survivors that are in Chuck or Frank's party count toward the 8 survivors limit as well. A survivor will not count toward the limit once that survivor is in the safe house or dead. Once a mission or scoop expires or fails, the survivors in that case are cancelled along with the mission or scoop. Only once a potential number of escortable survivors in a mission or scoop falls below the maximum of eight, Frank or Chuck will be able to see the mission or scoop. So Frank or Chuck can get a call about a scoop or mission hours after they were originally supposed to get the call. If the number of escortable survivors never drops to eight or below eight, Frank or Chuck will never be able to see the mission or scoop. If a player cannot see a mission or scoop, it is probably because of the eight survivor rule. Psychopaths do not count toward the limit, except for Snowflake the Tiger, who can become a rescuable survivor.
