Dead rising scoop cue info

Scoops act as side missions for Frank West to complete during the course of 72 Hour Mode in Dead Rising and Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop. Scoops differ from Cases as they are completely optional and not required to complete the story or unlock Overtime Mode, making scoops akin to 'side quests'. Most scoops require you to find and rescue survivors either from psychopaths, zombies or themselves. Frank can earn Prestige Points and level up by completing scoops.

They are replaced by missions in Dead Rising 2.

Chop Till You Drop Scoops[]

Day One[]

Day Two[]

Day Three[]

Missed calls[]

For all scoops, Frank cannot be in the Plaza/location where the scoop will take place to receive a call from Otis. So, for example, with the first scoop Cut From the Same Cloth, to receive the Scoop call from Otis Frank cannot be in Paradise Plaza, where Cut From The Same Cloth takes place.

If Frank is in Paradise Plaza at 2 pm when the scoop begins, he will not receive a call from Otis until he leaves the plaza. If he stays in Paradise Plaza for too long, Otis will never call Frank, and Frank will lose the scoop.

Frank will also not get scoop calls if he is in the security room, helipad or rooftop. Frank will only get Otis's transceiver call when he leaves these locations.

Trivia[]

  • A Woman With Secrets was a scoop in the beta version of Dead Rising, but was removed from the final version of the game.
