I just have to remind myself that this was originally a expansion pack and the end of the day if I'm having fun it doesn't matter how goofy the game comes off as.

I've reinstalled Steam a shitload of times, even reformatted C and reinstalled Windows 7 a shitload of times. I've tried with Steam installed on C and having my games folder on my external, and also tried with Steam installed on my external and with all my games installed in the defaul install folder which is how I'm currently set up. My Steam install is pretty new right now and again, works with 147 out of my 150 games. I've also replicated the same issues I am currently experiencing on my brother's computer that has a similar setup with Steam installed externally. My issues with SR4 as well as FC3 and Blood Dragon have been reported by others on the Steam forums for the respective games. I'd appreciate some thought prior to the kneejerk "your computer is the problem, not the game" response.

Bravo sir...*bow*Now this is Banjo-Threeie.
I just spit soda all over my monitor. Funniest shit I've seen all day.
SR3 ran perfect for me...up until I booted it up yesterday to play the last DLC I hadn't finished.
60-70fps smooth but drops hard to 1 fps every so often, extremely annoying and came completely out of the blue. 27 hours no problems, as of yesterday - borderline unplayable.
I powered/strained through the DLC, hopefully Saints Row IV doesn't suffer from the same problem
What the fuck.
Same problem.
Goddammit.
Looks like I'll be playing Blacklist instead until it gets fixed ughhh
That's on purpose. You are in a simulation.

Are you sure? It doesn't look intentional compared to the other "glitches"

So how is the customization?
Update your drivers? I'm on a GTX 760 OC'd, 3570k @ 4.7k, 2560x1440, running at 60 FPS locked, even running around the city.

This game runs much better than SR4 for me. That said I'm pissed, darn you Volition, I'm here playing the game and I'm looking for orbs. I'm jumping all over the place when I should be doing missions. Screw you, just one more and that's it, I'm going to stop OK!
Loving the game so far, the graphics also look better to me. Having a ball, and I think my melee She Hulk can work with the action button melee. Probably won't work on the boss dudes though. I'll accept her using a melee weapon. Now to get back to the game.
Bravo Volition!

both console versions are trash, PC port is on par with the third or a even a bit better
but yeah, everyone slammed the console version's framerate
Yeah those are old, update them and see how it goes. I'm using the Press Build of the game, should be the same as the regular build so performance should be equal. 320.49 drivers are a month and a half old.

The intro is amazing, 100% amazing
Also, you can listen to music when you arent in a car. Im sorry, but thats a huge deal for me, as i love the stations, and felt that with the superpowers, i was gonna miss out on that. Nope, now i can jam to my favorite songs as i go insane. This truly is the game of the generation

Having really annoying audio issues with missing sound effects, really noticeable in cars. Engine sounds are nonexistent, but sometimes kick in for seconds. Footsteps are silent, lots of muffled ambient audio. The most clear audio is dialog and music, everything else is very quiet and muted.

After playing for an hour, I love the game.
- Guns and cars feel way better than SR3.
- Game is hilarious. The ocean is made out of red cubes hahaha.
- I thought the dropping of health was dumb since we have regenerating health but when there are waves of enemies attacking, I'm not complaining.
- There is a lot of pop-in. Some parts of the game look great while some parts the characters don't look like AA is working on them.
I bought the game on GMG on a whim an hour before it was released and I don't regret it at all.

Loved the intro and setup, the intentionally cheesy gameplay and achievement stuff was great.
Sadly, this PS3 port is ugly as sin, my imported character's red outfit looks like muted pink, the character creation screen looked like mud covered in bloom, there's screen tearing while walking down a hall that looks like a first gen PS3 title, and the framerate varies from 60-20 depending on which way you turn. I bet even my crummy vid card woulda run this better on PC. I feel pretty dumb right now.

That program completely broke Big Picture mode and messed with 360 controller support.

Is there any way to turn off the blue glow around your character when you're doing super powered stuff?

it's probably the wrong store. Check the map and make sure you're going to the gun store they want you to go to.

Hunting for those clusters is just like orb hunting in Crackdown. So much fun.
Yes, 8x AA, Ultra settings. Vsync is on. I can do a FRAPS run for you if it helps.
Also, turn on Saint's Row 3 and see how performance on there is for you.

PC version is tight so far. Looks better than SR3 too, surprised. Screenshots didn't do it justice compared to playing it in game. And I'm only using an old quad core and a 5770 at 1920x1080.
I *am* bummed about no Rebecca Sanabria (female voice 3/hispanic female), having said that, the french female voice I'm definitely warming up to after the intro.
Edit: question though, my friend gifted me this through steam but did I actually get the commander in chief edition?

Will probably get a driver update for your card soon. 20% better performance type updates. Nvidia always do that for new cards, maybe AMD too (I don't have a AMD card).

I'm on a similar setup (except I'm on a 3770k). I'm glad I didn't buy it yet seeing the issues that you are having with the 680.
Then again, Total Biscuit was saying that he would have FPS drops with dual Titans, so that suggests that a driver update should help.
It's ironic, I went with Nvidia a year ago BECAUSE of my experience with SR3 on ATI (it was shit for a while).
I guess that gambit bit me in the ass, eh?
Damn :[, that's a long wait.
It's Crackdown all over again! and that's a good thing.
This is the best thing they could have done for the franchise. I found the previous games obnoxious and cringeworthy yet this one has been extremely fun so far. Fighting aliens in a matrix style setting is about a million times more fun and interesting than the previous Saints Row games.
One of my friends was complaining how getting cars is completely pointless and so is driving. I agree but I don't see it as a negative at all. Jumping and gliding across the map makes the game somewhat unique. It at least differentiates itself and makes the series more than just a cheap GTA knockoff.
