The Freelance Astronauts. I watched their stuff back when they were still active and playing games. I loved the Vice City playthu complete with the flying tank.. and then saw this "Saints Row 2" thing. After binging on the videos and laughing myself sick I went and got SR2 for PC.. and bad port...

I was going to go with some of the others.. but after seeing one suggestion, I'm swayed. Gentlemen of Digital Steelport. It fits, it makes sense that it's akin to the previous game, and the acronym works.

I'm happy with that as a free DLC. Heck, the other option is stuff that was going to be in the game but was cut for whatever reason, then spliced in once they had time to work on it post-Gold. That's not terribly uncommon. Charging a few bucks for that sort of DLC tends to be the assumed...

Hang on a sec... Is it REALLY a signed int for cash? I can't remember the thread in question but.. does money ever actually go negative? If 0 is our bottom, we can use an unsigned int, for much more capacity. Mostly because 21 mil doesn't seem too big for an enterprizing player who loses stuff...

I'm gonna stick to my 'SR3 was a sim' thing. It's why the alien invasion billboards suddenly appeared in Steelport. Why do the others who were characters you only met in the sim stay with you? Because they're people you met. They're not simulated, probably, Kinzie and Oleg and Viola (and even...

Yes, but 'seems' may well be the key word. GTA4 seemed great too remember. To some it is. To others we can't stand it. I'm waiting until it's out, and even then gonna ask a few people what it's really like, check some of the independent reviewers who aren't strongarmed by R* into high reviews...

I was wondering, I knew they looked almost like actual xtbls, like they should have been, considering the names. I couldn't see it quick enough and wasn't sure what was going on, but removing a few letters is a nice trick... As for the house, wonder what that place is. Possibly connected to...

It's pretty much right. Originally Saints Row was like GTA but more fun and cranked up, and hten kept going down that route with a dramatic escalation to taking over corporations to cities to now countries. The best way to describe the series in SR2 was probably a few things like the 3 gangs...

Sorry, I guess I was misinterpreting from what I read, when they said how many calls were just internally baked in and had to be exposed to lua. Either way, it's a lot more work than releasing a model format that we can use to play with. My hope is the little modding tweaks they're doing are...

Only downside is mission editing/creation and new asset addition is pushed back in the list a fair bit. Those are what I really wanna get a crack at. I do understand why though, from what the devs have been saying missions and their specific scripting bits are all but baked 100% right into the...

So it's random xtbls, and NOT specific ones related to the mission? Drat. And here I was hoping it was showing an asset list of STAG. Literally. Still an amusing bit, that it's actually pulling up xtbl names to show, that the computers in game are showing actual bits of the game. Now I'll have...

I was watching an LP of SR3 (I like LPs of co-op games when you can abuseinteract with your partner) and they were doing the "My Name is Cyrus Temple" mission. I then happened to notice that when selecting the 2 projects to approve, on the bottom of the screen it flashes a bunch of text. When I...

To be fair, limiting to alphanumeric only doesn't change much. Most people use '123password' or something similar anyways :rolleyes:

Also in the simulation. This is the internet age, even your own little matrix can be linked to others! :cool: And look at it this way, if SR3 was all a simulation, then if you don't like Zimos you can just tell yourself he's a computer program and not really there, and thus you can ignore him! :P

Well. I guess it makes sense.. I mean, if it's a simulation even if he's dead he can be about. Or maybe my "turns out SR3 WAS simulation" wild guess is correct! :D Either way, that's fun to hear. Now, to wait for the game. Moreso. Really, the game looks like it'll be fun either way, the...

I actually didn't mind Zimos. Was he an amazing character? Nah. Does he deserve to die in a fire? Also no. I think he should still show up maybe a few times. Don't pretend he doesn't exist, he's part of things after SR3, but he doesn't need to be a main character. Really, he was ok, but from...

Those damned bangers and their low-riders...:mad: :p Is it still a drivable car at that point? I thought they blew up almost immediately after getting crushed... If so I might have to look at this mod (I'm still waffling in general about it, as I have trouble driving with less angular...

Oh, we know that here, you've mentioned some of it as have they, and it's a joint effort, what with everything that's come before taking off a lot of the work from Volition as they busily polish up the upcoming game and possibly get some time to unwind after it's gold.. the thing I'm noting is...

Ah, a new layout for the forum with an actual logo (and maybe a bit of style change, as cool as the simple purple on white is)? That'd be cool. Well, it's ok. Steam Workshop (I keep calling it steam community cause Steam stuffs it under the 'community' tab) support would be great, but is a lot...

It's not the SDK, but it's a release schedule, and a sign that it's not just a "Oh, we're gonna do it eventually, really.." The other big thing I hope some of the people on the net take away from this is the three parties involved. Release plan developed by Volition, sure. Then given to Deep...
