I'm having a problem playing with a friend of mine. I've beaten all the story missions but they're on the two where you get Pierce and Ben King and if we play them together there's a point in each mission where it'll hang and not load (Right when Paul knocks you off the roof, for example). We've done a GCF verify but it still hangs. Are we screwed?

My own co-op misadventures sidestepped that by us just doing that particular mission solo. But yes, as you can imagine this basically hosed us out of the Co-op mission achievement. Though if this is a common problem it might explain why said achievement is so rare on Steam.

Man, people keep harping on male voice 2 but y'know what?

That voice IS the voice of the boss for me. I've been rocking it since the first game with the same character. It's been
really nice to have that consistency throughout the series. And he's not even a black dude!

So if I'm the only one to do it then let me say thank you, Kenn Michael, for your good work.

Yeah, seriously. Voice 2 has been my Boss this entire time and while I think the other voices are great (I still miss latina boss), he'll always be the voice of the Boss to me. He comes across as hood dude that actually climbed the ranks and despite everything, I just can't see a Troy Baker-voiced Boss in that same light.

No way to lower draw distance, but if the performance is that bad when SR3 was ok, I'd look at stuff like video drivers. Also force-run the directx installer in the "_CommonRedist" folder in the SR4 location to make sure he's not having some issue where dx9 (SR3) was ok but dx10 (SR4) is messed up.

I think the only way a computer can play 3 adequately but be unable to handle 4 is some super out-of-date hardware, like a video card from 2007.

Voice 2 is the only male voice I ever use. The Showgirl compliment isn't nearly as good as it was in SR:TT, though. :(

In addition to the radio stations, this game has a lot of great instrumental music. I love the track that plays while you're blowing up tanks in Kinzie's loyalty mission, and I also dig the James-Bond-ish tune from the beginning of the Asha bodyguard scenario.

Just ran into a bug that was due to my stupidity, really. I summoned a car from the gate, and realized that it wasn't the one I wanted. Jumped out of the car and ran back to the gate, and tried to summon another one. However, menu navigation froze and just trying to select the top vehicle at the list wouldn't do anything. Had to force close the game from Task Manager. I figure it has to do with the fact that the summoning space is occupied with another vehicle already.

...

Why were you going to the gate to summon a vehicle? You know you can just call them up from anywhere, right? :crossarms:

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.

I know who you are. You are destiny.


I'm almost considering making a new character after getting well over halfway in the game, only because I wish I hadn't purchased the explosive bullets for the heavy pistol and dual wielding pistols. Popping headshot after headshot with Mal's gun was just incredibly satisfying, and it's not as cool when there's two of them, and the explosive bullets makes it harder to kill stuff.

But holy loving poo poo, the pump action shotgun with super knockback and max range is the best weapon. It sends cars flying.

Something weird someone else noticed recently that I figured I'd share here. If you go to this location on the map:



And you stand in this general area:



You will hear some seriously weird poo poo. Like, yelling and torture and weird violent screams. If any of you remember that one house where you can hear the spouse abuse and chainsaw stuff in GTA: San Andreas, it's kinda like that! People have also been posting about weird stuff like pedestrians attacking them for no real reason while they're in the vicinity (like in my screenshot above!) but I don't know if that's a thing that normally happens everywhere or not.

Apparently it was there in SR3, too, but I don't have it installed right now so I can't check.
