Dead Rising 2 Guide › Gameplay › Unearthing Fortune City

South Plaza

Note

South Plaza may be unfinished, but it boasts four fully functional maintenance rooms.

With so many tools and pieces of hardware lying around, including 2x4s, chain saws, sledge hammers, saw blades, boxes of nails, propane tanks, cement saws, and much more - this is a fantastic place to visit when you really want to put a hurting on those ugly undead.

POINTS OF INTEREST

1. MAINTENANCE ROOM 24

South Plaza’s northwest maintenance room features a cement saw that can be merged with the plates outside to form the fantastic plate launcher.

You can also opt to merge the cement saw with any saw blade (they’re everywhere in South Plaza) to form a horrific ripper. This maintenance room also contains a box of nails and propane tank that Chuck can splice into a crowd-clearing i.e.d.

2. MAINTENANCE ROOM 25

Find a chain saw just outside of the southwest maintenance room and discover an innocent-looking paddle within. Merge these two items to form an incredibly messy paddlesaw.

Combine the room’s lead pipe with the rocket fireworks found just outside to form an explosive rocket launcher as well.

3. MAINTENANCE ROOM 26

The southeast maintenance room contains a pitchfork and drill motor—the ingredients for a killer auger.

There’s a bucket inside the room as well; combine this with any power drill (they’re quite common in South Plaza) to assemble a head-shredding drill bucket.

4. MAINTENANCE ROOM 27

South Plaza’s northeast maintenance room contains a rare vacuum cleaner, and there’s a saw blade just outside. this gives Chuck the ingredients for a devious exsanguinator that does anything but suck.

5. SCAFFOLDING MASTER

Chuck can leap up and climb onto the many elevated stretches of scaffolding that run throughout south Plaza. By climbing the scaffolding near the unfinished Ultimate Playhouse store, you can locate a handy chain saw.

Scale the scaffolding along South Plaza’s far-west wall to access a chain saw, handgun, orange juice, and a baseball bat that can be merged with the many boxes of nails around south Plaza to make a lethal spiked bat.

Work your way onto the scaffolding that stretches between the west and central statues to discover, among other things, the Building magazine, which triples the durability of construction weapons—very useful here at South Plaza!

Want more chain saw? Climb to the top of the high scaffolding to the south of the central statue to obtain another of these zombie-mauling devices.

Find a paddle in the nearby shop that features a passage to Maintenance room 27 and combine these two items to form a fantastic paddlesaw.

If you’re messing around near the entrance to Fortune City hotel, climb the stacked crates running up the wall near the east statue to reach a long stretch of ventilation.

Up here you can acquire two sticks of dynamite, along with the makings for a beer hat.
