Hmm, I wonder if that guy who is playing the guitar when you get Viola, the one that they focus on, but deliberately don't focus on his face, is actually Johnny in disguise...

MZ posted:I haven't played it yet but the giantbomb guys also mentioned the jet seemed to lack a sense of speed. Yeah after that post I flew around on the jet bike for a long time and the speed grew on me. It doesn't feel like you're going very fast when you're way up in the air, but when you start flying low to the earth and you're dodging and weaving, you can tell you're going fast as poo poo. You fly at pretty much the perfect speed to maneuver comfortably, it just doesn't seem like you're shooting through the air all the time. It would still be nice to have like a turbo boost thing for when you're up high.

Aww. After getting the VTOL, I did a little flying around the outer edges of the map in the hopes that this game might have secret islands like there were in SR2. I didn't see any, though. Yet another element I wish they'd brought over from the second game. Also, is the ASP just straight-up invulnerable? I've never seen it even hint at taking damage.

Right now my gang consists of one male Ninja plus a mix of Female Saint/Male Clubber/Female Gimp, and I'd kinda like to give them all the Ninja style without blowing the 50/50 guy-girl ratio I've got going.

What the hell is everyone smoking? This is like the twentieth person I've seen mention this guy and say they don't show his face and that OH MAN IT MUST BE GAT. Go watch the cutscene again (oh, but wait, you can't, argh), it clearly shows his face, and he clearly isn't Gat. He's a fat mexican guy with acne scars.

Dr. Gitmo Moneyson posted:Anywho, I just picked up my preorder for Skyward Sword today, so I think I'll take a short break from SR3 until..... I get bored with Skyward Sword, or something, I guess. I dunno. On second though, my Wii isn't hooked up at the moment so I guess I might as well dig through SR3 a little more before I start focusing attention on my beautiful new Zelda game.  I do have one question though: When do I get to do the next big story mission after "Trojan Whores"? I finished that one last night and then went through like 7 activities - the last of which involved driving a car with a tiger in it - and I gotta say, this long string of side-crap is getting a little tiresome. I mean, it's fun and all, but I wanna start getting back to the more serious stuff now.

So there is one complain I have. Tattoos. Too few options and most of them are terrible. Bunch of them are copy pasted from SR2 which wouldn't be a problem, but why the bad ones? All the good tattoos I had in SR2 are gone in 3... gone for the boss that is, I just saw at least 2 of the awesome ones from SR2 on my gang members. All the Saints logos, wings and fleur-de-lis(es?) where did they go? I'm ready to pay for a tattoo DLC.

Maybe the way AI performs around gang operations is a bit different. I tried to use an RC car to clear one out from long range (before I knew you had to trigger them up close) and the moment the car hit one of them the rest all ran at my locations.

I've spent about an hour and a half just tagging cars and using them to run over police, STAG and random gangs. I've never gotten notoriety with it before. They'll either shoot at the car you've tagged, ignore the car, or on at least one occasion have started shooting at completely unrelated targets.

KungFu Grip posted:I just learned that you cant customize the Bears anymore. This game seems like it took a few steps forward then a bunch back in customizing things. I wanted a purple and gold tank, but I can deal without that. But a armored purple APC with huge golden rims was like one of the things that made SR2 so fun. You can use the trick described earlier in the thread to customise tanks. Put the tank into your garage, drive any normal car to rim jobs, enter then customisation screen, switch to your garage and then highlight but don't select the tank before hitting the back button. You can now paint it any colour you like. This also works for other cars/bikes you normally can't customise, and also allows you to increase the torque, reinforced frame, etc. It also let me add nitrous to my tank, but it didn't actually work in-game. Seymour Buttz posted:Really? I thought the Heli Assault was actually a significant improvement over SR2. In the last game I avoided doing that activity at all costs, and in this game it feels like you're in an awesome Call of Duty killstreak. It went from being my least favorite thing to do in the last game, to one of the things I enjoy about the new game. I agree, it is a vast improvement. I couldn't even do heli assault in SR2 without a co-op partner.

Songbearer posted:Once you get to Ho Boat onwards, you'll be golden. It'll make up for all those crappy little forced activity missions, trust me.

Clear out the missions from Angel and Kinzie then work your way through Zimos. That'll be the activity missions done with and Ho Boat will be the only available mission, from that point on you can start caring about the story again.

At one point i had the entire right screen filled with empty meters, which also prevented me from getting respect/money from stunts. I find most problems are fixed with a save and reload. For instance, i got stuck in the falling tank mission, no enemies and i wasn't actually falling, just stuck in a tank in midair with nothing to shoot. Edit: Oh, maybe you were talking about the homie circles? ^^^

Just want to say thanks to the goons who gave the advice to stick with the game after the Ho Boat mission. The game has gotten ten times more enjoyable and my buddy and I have been having a loving blast. When this game is good it's loving good. Holy poo poo is this game buggy on the console though. We've had quite a few missions end instantly because we both start out glitching in a random vehicle then just die. A lot of random glitches in there, none to game breaking or none that a simple reload wouldn't fix.
