Saints Row 4 Announce Teaser

I heard from someone who experienced the PAX demo that the monster truck was in fact called the Infuego XL

Huh, good point. Maybe they just phrased it oddly and were only talking about new alien vehicles then.
that's what I picked up from it. I imagine they either meant new as in "new to this world, because they're alien" or new as in "in addition to the Gangstas in Space-themed alien vehicles"
 

Weapon customization includes colors. You can make gold or silver desert eagles. Scott Phillips also mentions this for a "cowboy gun" which is obviously the return of the revolver.

Initiation Station demo just like SRTT. No open world demo.
 
Weapon coloring is a smart move. I was afraid they'd ignore that factor, given the circumstances.

I'd like to see them add a small playable room to the IS so that you can properly test your character. Not so much that you could effectively just play the demo infinitely, though. And they definitely need to let you save your character to your machine rather than uploading to the cloud. I hated how if I wanted to make a change to my IS character, I had to remake him entirely


EDIT: I don't know if anybody else here noticed, but a sharp eye at the official forums spotted some sort of plus-sign item that flies out of a cop in the trailer when killed. It's actually visible in this picture that Idol posted earlier.

I doubt it's health, since I can't see them going away from regeneration, so I'd imagine it's either.

A. A method of recharging superpowers
or
B. Experience for upgrading superpowers, similar to the orbs from Crackdown

I'd put money on the latter. Note how the + is even light-blue similar to the Freeze Blast. In Crackdown you got specific colored orbs depending on the power used to kill (if you killed with a vehicle, you got purple orbs that went towards upgrading your Driving ability)


also, something I noticed: in the bottom right corner you can see an activity marker for what looks like Mech Mayhem.

Now that you mentioned over the blue plus drop, I re-watched the trailer and caught a few screenshots of them scattered all on the ground:

Unless those kills are Freeze blast related, I have my bet they are just common drops. Don't get me wrong thought, would be nice to have unique drops.

I don't think they are outdated. The update happened today and replaced the previous entry that had only like 18 or so. If anything, they just missed the text description.
 
Send an Email to Volition and log it as a bug... Maybe they'll put you on the Beta team... :p
