apology for low FPS recording, OBS doesn't fw DRDR. the game was running at 60-90 FPS on my end but the recording is low for some stupid reason i cant be bothered to troubleshoot


this run, to be FRANK, has too much RNG. any time you get grabbed by a zombie, if there are other zombies around, fighting back will net you unintentional kills. therefore, you must play this ENTIRE run without getting grabbed, which is absolute HELL with the RE Engine's magnetic grabs (if you get grabbed by an isolated zombie, that has no other nearby zombies, you are OK - when shoving the zombie that grabbed you, its body colliding with other zombies is what results in unintentional kills)

on top of this, kills from NPC vehicles (Convicts' Jeep, Carlito's Van) have a seemingly random chance to increase Frank's kill counter. this is the absolute run killer - I had to run Bomb Collector over a dozen times until the RNG of Carlito's Van finally showed me mercy so I could complete it. you can do absolutely nothing but PRAY his zombie roadkills won't increase Frank's kill counter. as far as i can tell, you CANNOT avoid roadkills, and thus you CANNOT avoid the random chance those kills count towards Frank. if anybody can figure out a way past that, this run will massively improve

overtime mode is impossible to complete with 0 kills, since Frank needs to acquire Queen wasps (only obtainable by killing zombies)

also, this game crashes too much. one crash is even included in this video! (1:13:40)

i had fun but at what cost
