I've heard tell that calling homies is actually bugged right now, causing them to become unavailable for no reason, and a patch is incoming. EDIT: Zorak posted:Okay this is the worst thing. It's also not true at all. I did Insurance Fraud out in the field and was able to do the story version just fine. Rocketlex fucked around with this message at Nov 19, 2011 around 20:21 |

Okay this is the worst thing. E: I mean, a lot of those missions have very stupid intro (The Professor Genki one is just Pierce calling you up and saying HEY YOU GONNA BE A STAR basically) but the Tiger escort intro is hilarious so you get the stupid context Rocketlex posted:It's also not true at all.

Zorak posted:I think it's missions that have cinematic intros then maybe? I never got a Professor Genki mission It's possible. I think I may have missed out on the story mission of Trail Blazing (that is to say the real-life version) by playing it in the field. It sucks because I have Fem1 voice, and half her comments during that are about what a sadist Angel is for making her do this...but I never saw that scene...

Is it just me, or would the last mission make a lot more sense if it turned out Phillipe survived and was the one escaping Steelport? He was more directly responsible for Gat's death (giving you more reason to think Shaundi would not want to be saved if it meant the bad guy got away) and it could make you doubt if Viola is really on your side. They could have just not given you the choice to spare Killbane to wrap up that arc.

Is it possible to repeat the Tiger Escort activity? I expected you to be able to, and you can repeat all the boring activites you can do anyways (Like Mayhem or Heli Assault), but there's no map icon yet.

Zorak posted:Okay this is the worst thing. I missed that intro . I thought I was starting up regular escort which came up in a story mission before and was completely surprised to find a goddamn tiger in the backseat.After finishing the escort, I went to see Angel and my boss was very angry at him. It was really confusing. Not showing the activities before they were introduced in the story might have been a better way to handle them.

Tiger Escort is considered a regular Escort mission, so it's at an Escort icon. Same thing with the cyber trail blazing, that's technically just regular trail blazing.

Metanaut posted:I missed that intro I think the way it works is that most side-missions have several markers on the map (two or three to start, with more unlocked as you go). All the story missions do is tell you to go to one of these markers and start the mission, so if you've already cleared that particular marker, the story mission doesn't happen. I think that's how it works, anyway.

I remember from the original thread in Games someone said something about don't play coop until you replay the finale mission, or something like that. I'm probably wrong, but they said something about "don't do coop until this happens and until you do this" or it would break the game or something. Does anyone remember that post or what exactly was being warned against? I just beat the game and had a friend hop in for coop on the replay and I'm not sure if anything is broken or what. Tried using the forums search but I'm bad at it I guess.

How the hell am I supposed to pick? That wasn't the last mission? Where the hell are we going from here, Saints Row?

This "unsticks" the counter somehow. This seems to have worked for me. There is a place near HQ (like two blocks north?) with flat grey walls on both end of the street that work for this. I tried just driving straight into a wall at first, wasn't sure of the instructions. But doing a car torpedo into the wall and getting nothing for it does indeed seem to have fixed my counter. Now if I could just get those gang taunts, hmm. edit: now it re-broke! time to try again. edit2: OK, looks like it's counting what I do, but not updating the stat until I do a flat wall fix. So I guess I'll get there eventually. edit3: Yay, got it. Took a lot of alternating between good hits and zero hits but it did indeed work.

For two days in a row whenever I join a friend in co-op we'll randomly get 5 police stars for no reason. We'll call them off and be in a crib just standing there doing nothing and get 5 stars again. Over and over. And when I leave his game it keeps going like that until he quits and restarts. It doesn't start until I join his game though. It makes no loving sense and is infuriating.

poptart_fairy posted:gently caress sake, using Windows Movie Maker to edit my SR3 footage together is completely goddamn pointless as the preview is blank - though I can still hear noise - and using vritualdub means I can't splice any footage together with the music I have in mind. Anyone know what's causing the problem, or any video software that'll let me do some light editing? This is incredibly irritating. If you're using the Windows Live version like i was, there's no fix for it. Only solution I had was to DL Movie Maker for Vista(movie maker 6, i think?)and HD Profiles for it.

I feel like this game is going to be the swan song of my Xbox. It's been slowly dying for years and the disc reading errors are becoming more and more frequent now. It wasn't a launch Xbox but I did get it years ago and never had to get a replacement. Should the end come, I can't think of a better game to send it off.

Incidentally, FWIW, I've uploaded footage of the cutscene for choosing Killbane in the penultimate mission. Needless to say it involves  heavy spoilers but I know there are people who can't bring themselves to get it naturally.

Sock on a Fish posted:What's the deal with the gang operation at the airport? I've killed everyone there more than a dozen times and I never get credit for eliminating the operation. Gang Operations are weird. You have to get close enough to "trigger" them before you start killing people. It seems if you kill any of the targets before you actually trigger the operation, you can't clear it. You have to run away and let everyone respawn and try again. I think this was intentional to keep you from nuking operations with the helicopter, but it's still kind of a weird way to handle it especially since the game doesn't tell you. It would make more sense if killing a target without triggering the operation caused a little "Gang Spooked!" message to appear and they'd all run away so you'd have to try again.
