saints row sucks though, its buried by everything up to and including fortnite, which outclassed its retarded randumbness
anything new..doubt it very much

Saints Row as a series has sold something like 30 million copies. It was a major factor in THQN buying Deep Silver. There is no way a new game isn't in the pipeline in some capacity.
Jordan Martin
>Saint’s Row
Nobody gives a shit. They should have stopped making them after thr first two. They are asinine GTA clones with more “silly” added to set it apart.
Zachary Stewart
That plotline is awfully similar to the APEX Corporation backstory for Homefront: The Revolution.
Gabriel Gonzalez
This, the post in the image, if true, mean they STILL don't understand the first two games.
Isaac Howard
WHO FUCKING CARES?
The last thing we need is more shitty ass open world games, FUCK. I'm so sick of this fad. Rockstar is such cancer.
Dylan Ward
>they STILL don't understand the first two games.
They don't give a shit about the first two games. Saints Row 3 & 4 comfortably outsold them by a massive margin. SR3 is the Far Cry 3 of Saints Row games.

user, i have hundred of screencap leaks that never happened
Especially from Yea Forums

And yet agents of mayhem sold so bad it forced layoffs at volition.

Agents of Mayhem tried to be different to Saints Row. Also it wasn't very good.

I don't see anything wrong with this.

Meh what gives, it will be EGS exclusive
Alexander Collins
This. SR 1 and 2 are quality games but they're never going back to it outside of references and callbacks like in SR4 (duuuude, remember how USED to be serious n gangsta n shit? xD). SR3 is when the game got massive popular appeal as "that wacky game" instead of just another GTA clone to dismiss.
Lucas Rodriguez
That plot is bad enough to be realistic.
Noah Wilson
If anything Saints Row related is coming out of E3, it'll be a teaser for the live action movie in the works.
James Roberts
So not-Watchdogs uh?
If then add fighting styles bad, why not.

>yet another GTA chasing wannabe post-ironic open world meme
It's beyond sad. We could have had additional Freespace and Descent games from them in all those years. They could have carved themselves a niche where they would have reigned supreme and had a constant cult following fanbase like Egosoft or Piranha Bytes instead of that cock sucking dickhack Chris Roberts and his vapourware trash show that is Turd Citizen
Ryder Ross
fuck off faggot there's already loads of old space games to go play
there are barely any games as good as Saints Row 1 and 2

Just make it 3 gangs - or are they all out of creativity?

died after 2 and became meme garbage. don't care
Gabriel Watson
Saints Row SUUUUCK
John Morgan
Why weren't the first 2 games ported? I'd rather them do that than make this "reboot".
Alexander Stewart
I've been replaying Saints row 2 and some activities are harder than I remembered them. Like the drug deal with the Ronin lvl 6 I struggled for one hour at least because they are so aggressive it hurts
Great game. I love how each gang has a personality and is present in the city
Noah Moore
>not playing as a gangbanger
Literally what's the fucking point then?
Sebastian King
>saints row 2 comes out around same time as GTA IV

>huge massive hype
>people start the game
>lmao GAT is dead fuck you
>MEMES LOL
I'm glad the series is dead. Fucking morons. They went from absolute kino and pacing to garbage shit.
Brody Morgan
It's probably going to be pozzed to hell and back.
Fortnite isn't anything like Saints Row. Saints Row is a GTA clone.
Ryan Torres
Why can't they just make a sequel to SR2 and keep a balance of goofy and serious? Oh also a shit ton of content that doesn't just reward you with goddamn exp to buy shit. SR2 was so perfect. Everywhere there was something different to do or find. Secret areas, music tracks for custom playlists, unlockable weapons, cars, every phone number could be called for a weird little discussion. Even seemingly useless shit like mugging unlocked something after so many. Sky diving into a car unlocked no fall damage for fuck sake! Oh also customizable clothes layers. Also want to have a tiny dinky ass car that plows through everything and sends it flying into the stratosphere? Insanely fun cheats that let you do just that.
SR3 and beyond ditched all the unique unlocks in favor of exp, stripped a ton of side content, stripped out cheats, no clothes layers, triple downed on the zany dumb shit, killed off Gat, and the mission variety tanked. Either make an actual good SR2 successor or fuck right off because you lost sight of why people loved SR in the first place.
Camden Morris
I've been replaying it too. Insurance Fraud was as difficult as I remember. I also discovered that assassination targets roam the city even when you haven't selected them as a target. I accidentally killed one during Mayhem.
Joseph Nguyen
Volition doesn't have the edge they used to. While the Saints in SR1 had good intentions, you were still doing a lot of unquestionably bad stuff like getting acquainted with Columbian dealers and the like. This new game will probably paint these new Saints as flat out heroes and they'll be too chickenshit to make them say nigga.
Nathaniel Evans
Just pretend that Blue Planet is Freespace 3. Derelict if you don't like that one.
Asking for modern day Volition to make a new Freespace is a fucking cursed monkey paw scenario.
Elijah Carter
>Dambuster Studios
Fuck no
Nicholas Roberts
I care, so sucks it
Lincoln Harris
I've only played 4, are the rest of them good?
Evan Howard
If you've played 4 you've already played 3 since the map is basically identical minus the destroyed buildings and alien shit, and so is the gameplay when you don't have superpowers.
2 and 1's gameplay isn't as refined as 3's, but it does have more meaningful customization and it's less wacky, though still more whimsical than GTA.
Hudson Brooks
Because the last canonical Saints Row game (Gat Out of Hell) literally has multiple endings where Gat rewrites history, including one where basically the timeline gets reset back to Saints Row 1 so this has been anticipated for awhile now.
Parker Morales
>gameplay takes a very realistic tone
I really hope they counter-balance this with some wacky (but no over the top) stuff like in SR2
Blake Bailey
was that game any good?
Jose Brown
Is the Switch version of 3 any good?
William Jackson
It's okay. It's basically SR4, you play as Gat with 'superpowers' except hes a fallen angel destroying demons in hell instead.
It has a few more original Saints Row cameos, i.e. tons of characters that died in 1-3. Dane Vogel (the Ultor Corp CEO in 2) is one of the major antagonists you work with. Dex is in it.
Gameplay wise, it actually has a unique new city unlike Saints Row 4 which just copied 3's boring as Steelport. Hell isn't entirely interesting but at least visually more distinct, and fun to fly through. There's no radio, it feels more like a DLC add-on, but if you like Saints Row and Gat and Kinzie and are bored it's worth a playthrough.
Eli Baker
Wait for performance patches.
Aiden Taylor
I mean that it's basically SR4 in the sense that it's the same engine, with emphasis on using powers, instead of classic GTA-eque driving etc.
Anthony Morales
Which should take how long?
Kevin Lee
if a leak starts with
>DUDE YOU'RE NOT GONNA BELIEVE THIS
it literally never is true
Jordan Jones
Man I don't know what Volition is doing, if they're actively working on it or if they're just gonna sit around before flipping the switch in the code on framerate issues and bugs from yes to no.
Wyatt Lee
Eh, not really. GooH is like 4, but located in different city with thinner amount of content and no character customization. I mean, it has very little actual story content, most of the time is spent doing stuff that is basically side activities from earlier SR games. If you like cleaning maps of content markers, it’s got you covered, but it’s very disappointing for anyone expecting a proper SR game with a story.
Gavin Morris
Volition are not the guys doing that version. It's the same fuckers that ported darksiders warmastered edition to the switch.
Landon Hernandez
>gameplay takes a very realistic tone in terms of pacing and physics
I could have believed it if this wasn't in there.
Daniel Flores
I feel that just means .. realistic compared to 3-4.
Perhaps realistic like Saints Row 2 was realistic. Not sure about 'pacing' though, the physics would just mean a better engine that relies less on ragdolls and more something like Rockstar would use.
Ian Sullivan
>it actually has a unique new city unlike Saints Row 4 which just copied 3's boring as Steelport
Gat Out of Hell also uses the Steelport map, they just put in some effort to make it look a little different.
Lincoln Fisher
On the last Saints Row thread that I posted in, I complained about the piss poor shit performance of SR2 on PC.
Turns out, GOG's SR2 was fucking bad.
I learned this when some user insisted that his SR2 works ok, so I pirated a SR2 version which isn't from GOG.
I'm having a great time now!
Jace Garcia

SR2 is the worst port ever made and the performance is different on each people. I had better performance using the GOG version.

Unless its a four player Saints Row 2 remaster I literally could not care less.

Sebastian Sanchez
No, you didn't. The GOG version is exactly the same as the Steam version, just capped at 30fps through nvidia inspector.
Every single version has the speed bug, you have the speed bug if you didn't fix it. The way to play SR2 on PC is to just powertools, turn off any framelimiters, and turn off dynamic lighting. In webm related cars don't cast headlights, but the game runs at a smooth 60fps with no drops, stutters or slowdown.
Sebastian Garcia
Your PC hardware?
Gabriel Nguyen
Hardware doesn't matter, the game will only run so well no matter what you throw at it. As long as your shit is relatively recent you can play at 60fps. Likewise, you can have a 2080ti and your game will still tank below 60 in areas with lots of dynamic lighting like interiors, and if you're using powertools this means the game will slow down and not skip frames.
For the record, I have an i7 7700k and a GTX 1060
