i'm wes from recommended playing and
this video will cover all of the hidden
unlockable special costumes in dead
rising 2 off the record with information
on where to get them what they do and
their practical applications this will
contain some minor spoilers for a few
psychopath and scoop events special
costumes are great they grant frank
increased abilities it's kind of a mixed
bag depending on the costume but every
single one of them has some unique and
useful bonuses you must be wearing the
full four piece outfit to gain the
benefits of these costumes unfortunately
you're just not allowed to mix and match
it's all or nothing for these bonuses
these costumes were formerly paid dlc in
dead rising 2 but are now available in
all versions of dead rising 2 off the
record off the record has had its own
slew of paid dlc costumes but most of
them are just significantly worse than
the original dlc costumes it's kind of
nice that these other dlc costumes
aren't good because they were bugged on
the pc release of off the record they
subsequently were pulled from the steam
store
whoops the pieces of the costumes are
found in various locations around
fortune city or require doing a few
special tasks once you've unlocked a
costume piece it will always be
available in the locker in the safehouse
you can change back into these pieces at
any time without having to revisit the
location you found them in
the sports fan outfit has the most
practical usage and requires no special
tasks to complete all you need to do is
a simple lap around fortune city picking
up all four pieces the sports fan helmet
is located in the back room of hot
excitorama on the silver strip simply
enter the store head to the back room
and put on the helmet from the rack the
sports fan cleats are hidden in royal
flush plaza at sport trance these are
cheekily hidden in between shoe racks
with different shoes check the ones in
the middle for the sports fan cleats the
sports fan outfit is hidden on the
spinning racks at the back of coconut
sports town in the palisades mall head
to the back of the store and grab the
outfit from the spinning rack finally
the sports fan makeup is the most well
hidden you'll want to head to benny
jack's barbecue shack in the americana
casino now head upstairs and approach
the counter on your left jump up and
then slowly and methodically move and
jump across each of the lights once you
reach the landing above the security
office examine the box for the sports
fan makeup the sports fan outfit is
easily one of the best outfits in the
game for various reasons number one is
that it gives you an instant speed
increase this is very helpful at both a
low level and once you're maxed out at
level 50. you'll be flying through
fortune city with the sports fan speed
boost second is that you can drink as
much alcohol as you want without
vomiting alcohol is easily the most
plentiful healing item in fortune city
if you drink too much booze frank will
get sick this will cause frank to
periodically stop drop what he's
carrying and vomit this effect lasts for
a long time and is very frustrating to
deal with with the sports fan outfit you
negate the very bad issue with consuming
too much alcohol you can simply chug as
much as you want without any downsides
definitely helpful if you're finding
yourself taking a lot of damage
frequently and it's very useful for a
couple of sandbox mode challenges
finally and maybe the least useful of
the three is that you'll gain increased
gambling ability this isn't a huge bonus
as the three gambling magazines are
usually enough for cash generation and
to win at the handful of poker games to
rescue the survivors and make some money
of course more gambling skill is always
better sports fans extra plus one to
gambling skill will help you out the
sports fan outfit being a simple lap
around fortune city means it can
realistically be the first task that you
complete and dead rising to off the
record you should absolutely enter
sandbox mode and grab the 4 pieces as
the very first thing you do this will be
the last suit you ever need to wear in
dead rising 2 off the record
the ninja outfit is mostly hidden around
fortune city just like the sports fan
outfit you will need to complete one
special task to get the ninja outfit
itself though that special task is to
kill 1
37 zombies for the elite killer
achievement once you defeat
1337 zombies you'll unlock the ninja
outfit and this will be available in the
locker in the safe house it does not
automatically get equipped to you the
remaining three pieces are found in
fortune city you can pick up the ninja
boots from the man's sport in the uranus
zone these are slightly hidden but if
you walk around you'll find them
eventually the ninja mask is hidden
inside shoal nightclub you'll want to
hop the reception desk and take it off
the mannequin finally the ninja hood is
very well hidden you'll want to climb
the telephone box in royal flush plaza's
second floor now cross the awning and
jump to the other side this time double
back and jump to the next awning above
you now turn to your right to enter the
hidden area you can head inside to pick
up the ninja mask and some other goodies
like the katana and sniper rifles in
here when you wear all four pieces of
the ninja outfit frank will become much
more stealthy you can think of this as a
permanent pseudo-repulse effect it's
definitely not as strong as a repulse
but it will make zombies largely ignore
you this can be a nice benefit when
you're trying to do certain tasks like
gambling if you find yourself getting
annoyed with zombies a lot during 72
hour mode you can absolutely consider
wearing the ninja outfit over sports fan
this stealth effect can absolutely have
negative synergy for a few scoops and
cases namely is one hit wonder in 72
hour mode wearing the ninja outfit makes
it much harder to gather zombies into
the stage area this also applies to the
two challenges in sandbox mode where you
need to gather zombies in the slot ranch
casino stage and in the restrooms in
fortune park you absolutely do not want
to wear the ninja outfit when doing any
of these tasks you should switch your
outfit before going out to do these
tasks the last two benefits of the ninja
outfit are pretty mediocre you'll get a
few new attacks when using sword type
weapons and you can throw weapons
further and they cause more damage
neither of these effects is particularly
strong or useful anywhere in dead rising
2 off the record there's simply a couple
of interesting and thematic bonuses you
should largely be using combo weapons
and dead rising 2 off the record which
simply won't gain the benefits from
these ninja bonuses they only apply to
standard weapons if you want to use the
ninja outfit you should realize you're
only using it for the stealth effect
nothing more it is a nice alternative to
the sports fan depending on your play
style
the psychopath gear is one of the
hardest to unlock you'll need to do a
lap around fortune city and complete
several very specific tasks to unlock
the full set the first two pieces can be
picked up anytime during sandbox mode
you can pick up the psychopath boots in
the fortune city arena security office
they're slightly hidden near the
monitors in 72 hour mode this area is
locked until rebecca unlocks it during
the case alive on location the
psychopath mask is found in the swept
away chapel on one of the rear pews this
area is freely available in sandbox mode
but you'll need to wait until here comes
the groom in 72 hour mode in 72 hour
mode you'll also likely need to deal
with randy the next two pieces require
very specific tasks to unlock the
psychopath hair you'll need to head to
the paradise platinum screens on the
platinum strip you need to watch the
timeshare movie at midnight sit through
the entire movie without skipping it and
you'll unlock the psychopath hair you
can do this in both 72 hour mode and
sandbox mode the last piece the
psychopath outfit only becomes available
after beating the psychopath carl
schliff carl spawns fairly early on
during a new playthrough of sandbox mode
in royal flush plaza near the restrooms
carl also spawns in 72 hour mode in the
scoop mail order zombrex defeating carl
is the only way to get the final piece
the psychopath outfit the psychopath
outfit is probably the worst unlockable
outfit the best part of wearing the
entire ensemble is the innate damage
resistance this damage reduction from
attacks is strong for sure but it is
largely negated by the huge availability
of pain killers in fortune city
painkillers are a mixed juice that gives
you one minute of damage resistance and
heal you for six health blocks these are
available everywhere in fortune city you
just need to mix two vodka two whiskey
or two beer together in a blender this
largely makes the one really major
benefit of the psychopath outfit
available to every other special outfit
to go along with the damage resistance
frank will no longer be doubled over
when he gets grabbed multiple times in
succession much like the various horror
movie villains this will help you be
relentless
the other benefits of the psychopath
outfit are minor you'll get increased
damage output with weapons that are used
by psychopaths in your favorite film
franchises these include the chainsaw
leatherface's favorite from texas
chainsaw massacre the iconic machete
from friday the 13th
michael myers's chef knife from
halloween and the bowie knife from
scream among other horror movie
favorites such as the cement saw meat
cleaver mining pick crowbar plumbing
wrench and pitchfork is that a children
of the corn thing as with the ninja
outfit dead rising 2 off the record
favors combo weapons this largely makes
the increased damage from these weapons
not overly valuable the psychopath
outfit is very likely the worst of these
bonus outfits it's also really annoying
to get which makes it even less
appealing
the special forces outfit is just like
the psychopath outfit you'll need to
first do a lap around fortune city and
then do some special tasks you can grab
the first two pieces from around fortune
city at any time in 72 hour mode or
sandbox mode first you need to head to
shanks at the palisades mall you can
find the soldier face paint on one of
the mannequin heads
next you should head to the south plaza
this is very well hidden on a box in one
of the abandoned stores south of the
children's castle toy store hunt down
the box and grab the soldier boots
now you'll need to prepare your wallet
you'll want to head to mo's imaginations
on the platinum strip you'll have to buy
the soldier goggles for 2 million
dollars this can be done in both 72 hour
mode and sandbox mode you can reduce the
price in 72 hour mode by bringing both
of the bargaining magazines if you want
the benefits of the bargaining magazines
you have to be in 72 hour mode this
makes it significantly cheaper to get
the goggles of course you're free to
just get the 2 million dollars and dump
the cash for the goggles finally the
soldier outfit can be obtained by
beating sergeant boykin sergeant boykin
is only available after completing the
vast majority of cases in 72 hour mode
sergeant boykin does also spawn in
sandbox mode but it's fairly hard to
keep track of the time during sandbox
mode when he spawns once you defeat
sergeant boykin you'll get the final
piece the soldier outfit the soldier
outfit's actually pretty good if you're
using a lot of firearms the lmg is
extremely effective for burning down
psychopaths and it's readily available
at the start of the game it's hidden
just south of baron vaughn broadhouse in
the yucatan casino the full soldier
outfit will double the ammo and give you
increased accuracy for all firearms this
is a huge benefit especially when you're
using the lmg you'll also get the
ability to reenact both rambo and tropic
thunder using a special attack firearms
are really only useful against
psychopaths they're actually quite
lackluster on zombies as it's just too
difficult to clear a path effectively
using firearms it's also fairly
difficult to restock on firearms you'll
need to head to high noon shooting range
at the palisades mall and you're only
allowed to carry one lmg from the
yucatan with you at a time combo weapons
are just a better option when you're
clearing through hordes of zombies
unfortunately the soldier outfit takes
by far the longest and it's the most
involved costume to unlock having to
farm two million dollars and beat
sergeant boykin means you've done a huge
amount of the game content by the time
you can even get this otherwise it's
pretty decent probably rank at number
two
the protoman outfit is your final reward
for completing most of the major tasks
while going for all of the achievements
to get the protoman helmet you'll need
to beat jack in the scoop ante up in 72
hour mode this requires rescuing him
earlier in the game alternatively you
can just kill jack in sandbox mode he
spawns in the fortune city arena roughly
20 minutes after starting a new game in
sandbox mode it's definitely easier to
just kill jack in sandbox mode next up
to get the protoman boots all you have
to do is run to the ultimate playhouse
store in the palisades mall here you
just have to find the protoman boots and
put them on and they'll be freely
available in the locker in the safe
house the protoman outfit requires you
to get at least a bronze medal on all
single player challenges in sandbox mode
if you want the platinum trophy or all
of the achievements you'll want to get a
gold medal on all challenges in both
single player and co-op once you
complete the final challenge and single
player with at least a bronze medal in
all of them you'll unlock the protoman
outfit that's all for the set the final
piece requires you to go through the
entirety of 72 hour mode and go into
overtime mode to earn ending s
after beating tk and saving your game
you'll unlock the protobuster the
protobuster is only available in 72 hour
mode thanks capcom vancouver why would
you do that this is the perfect thing
for sandbox mode when you use the
protobuster with the full protoman
outfit you'll get a movement speed
increase and your protobuster will gain
in power with the full outfit when you
hit a zombie with the protobuster shots
it'll cause a small explosion this is
not nearly as strong as the real mega
buster and dead rising but hey it's so
it's okay it can be fun i guess by the
time you've unlocked the full protoman
outfit you'll be done with the game it's
strictly for messing around or helping
other players for trophy hunting that's
all now you'll get equipped with all of
the dead rising 2 off the record special
costumes the big winner here is pretty
clear and it's the sports fan outfit
every single one of its special effects
are useful and it's by far and wide the
easiest one to get
the ninja and special forces costumes
are decent but only under specific
circumstances the psychopath outfit is
just too hard to get and the effects
aren't strong enough to really justify
its usage finally the protoman outfit is
more of a novelty set and isn't better
or worse than anything else thanks for
