This game actually has decent mouse controls, so I'm not really sure why you wouldn't just use that on the PC if the controller sucks.Lazy Jones said:

Finished the story last night after about 25 hours according to Steam. Between this and Dead Island it's been an amazing year for supposedly "B-grade" titles, it's rocketed to the top of my favourites for the year and I haven't even tried co-op yet.
I haven't played a game since NOLF2 which had me laughing out loud this much. It's like a glorious satire of video games, pop-culture and gangster movies all mashed together with loving hands and then fired into your cerebral cortex with a railgun. I frequently had to pause the game until I stopped laughing, particularly listening to the commentary during S.E.R.C. matches.
Amazing game, and it feels like I've barely scratched the surface. Random highlights, spoilers all the way to the end of the game:
So good. Really looking forward to playing it through again with a friend now.
For the record, it doesn't. I played through the whole game with a 360 controller and it was great, there is lag with vsync switched on but you can all but eliminate it by forcing triple-buffering.

- (autotuned) "Let's get the lights on. I'm tired of trippin' over bodies."
- "Leave me and my tiger alone!"
- "Alright you fucking unicorn, you're going down."
- "I need a hero! I'm holding out for a hero in the morning light."
- Gangstas in Space. Holy shit.

Any easy ways to get money (I'm sort of at the beginning where they're masking side quests as main quests on my cell)?

Do the story quests, they'll unlock heaps of activities in Act 1.

It kills me to wait for my co-op partner to play the game. I just can't help but load up the game and fuck around for a while on my own without doing missions.
Darkshier said:
That works, but you have a limit on how much money you can transfer and I believe in Act 1 it's only like 50k. I just buy property ,stores first because you get income and a discount. Then I just run around and do activities and buy more. By the time I was done with Act 1 I owned all property and stores.
Now what's peoples favorite weapons, and I have to say mine are fully upgraded dual wielding pistols. Then the fully upgraded shotgun, those two I spend so much time playing with.

Idk, the starting smg is great once you max it out. Fire bullets are fun
But yea my favorite is still the starting pistols with exploding bullets. Only set of guns I didn't like were the rifles, by the end of the game they felt really weak compared to the othersOld Gimlet Eyes

Not sure what Act I am on, but I have a transfer limit of 150k.Arkaerial said:
I am liking the fully upgraded Shepherd 45's. Great damage, range and fire rate. Shotguns don't have enough range for me, SMG's/rifles seem too weak, even when fully upgraded. Dual pistols is the way for me to go, plus lots of grenades of course.
Are there any satchel charges in this game ala SR2?

AMD released a 11.11 CAP2 profile today that apparently helps with Saints Row 3 (crossfire and single card configs).
Release notes only say "performance improvements when running in lower resolution configurations" and it's only a CAP not a full driver release (which I find does nothing on my single 5770) but I won't get a chance to try it out for myself for another few hours. If anyone has AMD and has had problems wants to try it out, report back on if it changes anything for you!
Clicky here.

Righto will do. Here you go Volition, hope this helps.SapientWolf said:

Also I am running D3D Overider.
Edit: One thing, is it me or does the fade in of distant objects seem a little too close? Things seem to fade into view really late, I would love to know how to fix that because it kind of sucks.

It may help your performance. AMD has changed CAP's to not just be about Crossfire - they also include single GPU performance improvements as well.

May I ask what the horror stories are?
I have a 5850 and I've been playing it for like 4-5 hours and I haven't noticed any problems so far, only things that come to mind is that the game will freeze for a second when I get a steam message for the first time and then it will be fine after that.
I hope there's a patch coming for how fast noteriety build up/the amount of enemies come after you. Seriously, sometimes if I bump a gang member with my car, there's already a fucking road block on the corner...I want to be able to fuck around the city without starting WW3 every 2 minutes!

I'm actually using the black pistols because they look cooler, but the explosive shots from the silver pistolas are crazy.

During Act 3 martial law is declared, turning the entire middle set of islands into a restricted zone where you get attacked just for driving down the street.
The good news is that by then you'll have access to a lot of toys, so you can fly around an avoid the military guys pretty easily. Personally I enjoy the carnage so I usually ride a Kaneda around at warp-speed.

Just bought this game (360) minutes ago based solely on this thread. With that said gentlemen, anything I should know when I start it up?

Seriously, the game needs no introduction. The first act grabs you by the short and curlies right from the start and it just keeps upping the ante until the climax.

Well....good news is that

Beat the game, last mission was one of the coolest moments I've had in gaming for a while outside of Skyrim. Game got better as I went on, more and more stuff opened up, combined with the more money for perks/levels and it seemed to flow better. I did miss having infinite ammo at the start of the game with sidequests. Having them tied to
level 50
I do wonder where SR4 can go from here though, especially with the nature of the ending.
Also, some of the Vehicle theft missions get ridiculously difficult once
