Oh right I forgot they had Boss upload functionality (not that I ever got it to work between the character creator demos and full releases).

I'm pretty sure you just need an SR4 save file on your disc. I'm not sure if it'll grab it off steam cloud though, but if you played SR4 before on the same computer it's probably fine even if it's been uninstalled.

This game is totally worth $20. The flying alone is magnificent, and the world design of Hell is awesome. Each district really does feel unique. My only real complaint is that this takes Hell off the table for possible locations of future games. If this were expanded and turned into a full game (expanded storyline, wardrobe, and full radio), the elements are all here for something special.

Young Freud posted:I'm torn a bit on the soundtrack. I know Volition didn't want to splurge on licensed music this time, but it sounds like who ever got composed the soundtrack did a lot of sound-a-likes. The Glyph song reminds me of the ending theme to Buckaroo Banzai and while running around last night, I swore I heard something similar to the Chromatics' "Tick Of The Clock" from Drive. And for some reason, every single one of those generic music pieces are listed in the credits, and the titles are just as generic as you'd expect too.   (And then continues for like 10-15 more pages)

I like to petrify them so they can't get away and then lay into them with an SMG until I get the prompt, though the demons won't be able to get out until the car depetrifies. SR4 was my first, going back and playing SR3 now but took a break to beat this and was glad to have an idea of who the gently caress the Sisters are. Dane was badass enough for me to install SR2 so does anyone have tips on getting through the older titles that may not have aged so well in other places? Kinzie was awesome but it made me sad to be called Johnny over and over, but somehow it felt right to have the narrator keep talking about him even though Kinzie did all the work.

For SR2, install Gentlemen of the Row and turn on the option to have infinite respect. Also, get a buddy and set up Tunngle or Hamachi or something and have some great times co-opping.

Yeah, SR2 feels no more aged than GTA: San Andreas if you install Gentlemen of the Row. If you have a buddy to play the game with, though, absolutely do it. The game is a real hoot to share. This also goes for SR3, but people generally like SR3 less all around. It suffers a bit from being the 'middle child' game in that it's starting to liberate itself from the reality that SR2 was grounded in, but hasn't yet gone balls to the wall Rule-of-Cool that like SR4 was.

I'm playing on a completely different computer that's never had SR4 installed, and it used my Boss. So it either pulls from the steam cloud, or black magic. My money's on black magic.

Were some of the DLC in Re-elected previously exclusive to one console or added long after release? There's a few I don't recognise at all like the prehistoric themed stuff.

And I think it uses the most recently-played Boss. I thought for a moment I had the wrong game when the game started, since it wasn't playing my Lana-Kane-Leads-the-Saints Boss. Forgot that I'd started a reboot game a while back. The halo-arm sequence as a page in the book felt a little weird, but it was one less thing to animate...

I believe it is, but you can play after you finish it and it won't lock you out of anything (you also have the opportunity to replay it as many times as you want).

Is tehre a fix, or will I have to learn the keyboard controls? I just redownloaded and tested and everything is working fine. I also checked the script to make sure nothing odd was going on there. The way Sandbox+ works is that you hold down an in-game action key/button and then press another unused key to trigger the command. So, that particular teleport is triggering with melee (F on keyboard or click right stick on controller + INSERT.) Something is mistakenly triggering your keyboard INSERT key somehow and causing that to accidentally happen. Do you have any kind of keyboard macro software enabled or keystroke monitoring software?

Perhaps something in that other mod is triggering it.

Saints Row IV space craziness is a lot of fun and all, but the more I think about it, the more I want to see the police ending become the future of the series. And after this game I'd even be completely okay with making Johnny (/Kinzie) the new protagonist.

Yeah the story is over super quickly. And if I'm being honest you don't quite get to do enough between the cutscenes, considering there are only two, not counting intro and ending. There's hours of stuff to do in the postgame though.

Speaking of weird bugs, I have the keybindings thing except it's z and g (so far as I can tell, might be more) that are unbindable. I also frequently have this issue where my health won't regen naturally at all, so if I leave combat at like 1% hp I'm basically going to die unless I can get lucky and blow a dude up to eat his pellets before I get sniped by Mr. Teleporting Fuckall unless I've already got the Vamp aura.Krowley posted:Gat drat, flying in this game is just the best! I read some other pre-release review (PC Gamer or something?) that gave me pre-emptive buyer's remorse. I could tell like 5 minutes in that that guy was an idiot. Hell is a much more interesting open world than Steelport, and the flying mechanic alone is worth the 20bux. I've been going back and replaying SR4 and getting irritated at how slow and unweildy super jump is. Spoiled already. I think part of the problem is game reviewers tend to inevitably become these dudes that just plow through games as fast as possible to meet deadlines while doing the 90% of their job that isnt playing games. You get the sense that they end up not liking games that you just dick around in or play longer than 1-2 playthroughs max because that's not how they play games anymore.

Completed it in co-op. It was short, but we had a great time and there's some laughs to be had. Just don't expect it to rock your world, it's pretty much some super polished DLC but goddamn the flying mechanic feels smooth as gently caress. The anti-air spires didn't give us trouble at all, in fact we were laughing at how ineffectual they were. I really, really liked the vehicle design in the game as well, even if it was fairly limited remeshes of existing vehicles. The setting looked cool, I'd love to see an open world game that really explored it in detail.
