How to unlock the Saint achievement in Dead Rising - Definitive Guide

I've verified that this method works on the Xbox One re-mastered version if you're going for the Saint Achievement exclusively. This method aims for Ending B which means you're going to let Case 7-1 [THE LAST RESORT] lapse intentionally on Day 3 and then be at the Heliport at noon on Day 4, September 22nd.

Using this method you must lead 48 survivors to the Security Room. Brad, Jessie, Isabella, and Otis all count as survivors for this achievement ... so, Ending B is your friend for this 72-hour mode play-through that is "Saint" focused because in Ending B all of these characters survive.

This is what you want your Notebook to look like at the end: http://imgur.com/2avt85I

Here's what your Survivor Chart should look like: http://imgur.com/Q80tu2D

52 survivors safe; that's 48 plus Brad, Jessie, Isabella, and Otis. Barnaby is the only one that gets the shaft here but hey, he had it coming.

I recommend being level 50 and having the Real Mega Buster unlocked as it saves valuable time in dealing with psychopaths.

----------------------
Day 1 - September 19th
----------------------
[SURVIVOR 1, 2]
12:30pm: Save Jeff + Natalie on Rooftop - snap a picture of the vent that leads to the Security Room; save it for later, you need it for the gun shop survivors on Day 3

1:00pm: Go help Brad in the Food Court; beat Carlito; follow Brad through Al Fresca Plaza to Entrance Plaza

[SURVIVOR 3]
1:30pm: Save Bill in Entrance Plaza upstairs @ In the Closet; give him a gun
2:00pm: Talk to Kent in Paradise Plaza @ Columbian Roastmasters while headed back to Security Room w/ Bill; progress his storyline by taking pictures as required

1:00am: you have a little time to kill before 6am on Day 2, so it's a good idea to go get the Maintenance Tunnel key just in case you need it later; I like to use the tunnels to access Wonderland Plaza right after getting the meds for Brad on Day 2 ... it's a quick way to get to Ross and Tonya in Run Like the Wind on the 2nd floor; also, it's also a good idea to always carry 1 or 2 bottles of wine for healing you and/or survivors or for Floyd who needs a bottle on Day 3 because he sucks

I'm confused, if the achievement is 50 survivors, why do you need to rescue 48 back to the security room? Couldn't you rescue only 46, and then Brad, Jessie, Isabella, and Otis would make 50?

Just as an FYI, the achievement pops right after the credits when you land on the RESULTS screen showing your PP Earned & such.

Is the A.I is the same as in the 360 version or they improved them a bit?

To add to Catatonic’s comment, there is a call from Otis before the Day 2 6am Case. You need to not be in the security room for that. Extremely frustrating to miss this one.

Also to add an EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING oversight. Most of these times are suggestions, if you’re running behind not a big deal, but you ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO BE AT ROASTMASTERS BY 12 or Kent will have already killed Tad.

This is a fantastic guide, thank you for this, but there are 2 things I would add

1 - Apparently accidentally entering Wonderland Plaza after receiving the 'Above the Law' scoop puts Jo on a timer where she will start to kill her hostages. I used the Paradise-Wonderland bathroom shortcut not realising this and by the time I went to kill Jo only 1 of her 4 hostages remained. This put me on 49 survivors at the end of the guide.

2 - ED COUNTS! Thankfully Ed the Helicopter Pilot also counts as a survivor. This guide, if you don't mess up like I did, should put you on 53 survivors. Thankfully, Ed pushed my total from 49 to that magical 50...

I know this has been mentioned before but adding this to the guide itself would be a massive help to those following on the TA app via their console

This guide is fan-tastic! (as Frank would say). Thumbs up from me helped me save all the survivors.

Also, it's possible to get this achievement in overtime mode. I finished all of the cases and scoops and rescued all the survivors I could.
After the story finished, it told me that 49 survivors had escaped. I continued playing and after beating Brock during overtime mode it gave me the achievement as the credits started to roll.
So if you save every survivor possible throughout the game and finish overtime mode, you'll get the achievement.

According to the Dead Rising wiki Frank also counts as a survivor. So if you have 49 saved when you start Overtime, when you finish Overtime Frank counts as survivor number 50.

And just in case anyone is wondering, if you decide to leave Sean’s prisoners behind after killing him so you can make it back to the Security Room in time for the next Case, they won’t be there when you have time to go back for them at the end of the game 😭

So glad for multiple saves. I reloaded a previous save. Went for Endng B had 43 in my notebook saved, managed to save another 6 people on day 3. I got on the helicopter the cheevo popped for me at the stats page, 49 + Frank was my survivors.

Currently at 8:00pm on Day 2 and followed everything to a T, just killed Jo. Only Kay is alive in the room and the other 3 are dead. Apparently, if you enter Wonderland Plaza at all while that scoop is available, the health bars of the other 3 girls deplete over time. Had no idea. Run is now dead because every save I revert to the girls are already dead. The maximum amount of survivors I can save now is 49. Fml.

edit- Didn't know Frank counted as a survivor! Got it with 50 exact. So the total survivors you can miss is 3, just don't progress past case 6

Did this achievement get bugged for anyone else? I have completed it 2 times already and have not unlocked it; first time was with ending A same save file with a count of 51; and I did it again with ending B where I got the police cap, which is proof it was completed, but the achievement did not unlock.

I know the XBONE version is really buggy compared to the original but some of this doesn't make sense.

It makes me afraid to even try 7-day survivor if there is a chance it won't unlock.

I really hope it's not like Case West where all player data needed to be wiped in order to reset achievement tracking.

Here's a thing that some people might find useful. You can combine this quite easily with the Transmissionary achievement with just a little careful saving.

Follow this Saint guide closely and make sure you trigger all the mentioned Otis calls. Cross reference with Catapult's Transmissionary guide if you feel the need.

At about 10:45am on Day 3 make a fresh save.
At 11am take the call from Otis saying that Isabella wants to see you.
Go to the Security Room to continue with the case file. Head towards the maintenance tunnels. Isabella will call you saying to hurry. I'm not sure if the calls from Isabella are required for Transmissionary but better to be safe and accept them.
At 12pm you'll get two calls from Otis giving you the scoops "Kindell's Betrayal" as long as you're not in the Security Room and "A Woman In Despair" as long as you're not in Paradise Plaza.
Finish the case clearing all the bombs out of the tunnels. Isabella will call you again towards the end of the case.
Head back to the Security room collecting Simone from Paradise Plaza along the way. You must do this for a later call from Otis.
Drop SImone off and talk to Kindell to stop his mutiny.
Hang around in the warehouse waiting for the last handful of calls.
At 5pm Otis calls to tell you to come back and talk to Jessie.
Immediately afterwards he calls again saying to talk to Paul.
At 7pm he'll call telling you to come talk to Simone.
At 8pm he'll call telling you to come talk to Cheryl.
You don't have to go talk to any of these people if you don't want to, just taking the calls is good enough.
After the 8pm call you should pop Transmissionary if you've received all the calls. At this point I reloaded my 10:45am save and continued with the Saint guide to get that achievement as well.

Don't worry too much if you don't keep up with the times in the guide there is plenty of time in certain parts, this guy must have been an absolute beast to do it in these times.

It should be noted that if you save all survivors and complete all cases, you actually only have 49 survivors.

So you can either let Case fail, reach the end of B, and keep Jesse from dying. You can either complete the Overtime mode, because Isabella in Overtime mode is counted as a survivor, which is exactly 50.

Now this is hard. If you are having trouble with this you’re going to have to find a well-written guide. Because of how much detail is in the game, if I wrote a guide for this it would be longer than this achievement guide.
But here is a link to a good guide on GameFAQs.com
